The old man’s beard was glazed by winter’s frost while he waited for a ride across the river. The wait seemed endless. His body became numb and stiff from the frigid north wind.‎ It was long before he heard the faint, steady rhythm of hooves (马蹄) along the frozen path. Anxiously watching several horsemen coming up, he let the first one pass by without any effort to get his attention, then another passed by, and another. Finally, the last rider drew near where the old man sat like a snow statue when old man caught his eyes and said, “Sir, would you mind giving an old man a ride to the other side?”‎ Stopping his horse, the rider replied, “Sure! Jump aboard.” Seeing the old man unable to lift his half-frozen body from the ground, the horseman got down to help him. The horseman took him not just across the river, but to his destination just a few miles away.‎ As they approached the tiny but cozy cottage, the horseman’s curiosity caused him to inquire, “Sir, I noticed you let several other riders pass by without making an - 27 -‎ ‎ effort to secure a ride. Then I came up and you immediately asked me for a ride. I am curious why, on such a bitter night, you would wait and ask the last rider. What if I had refused and left you here?”‎ The old man looked the rider straight in the eyes and replied, “I reckon I know people pretty good. I looked into the eyes of the other riders and immediately found no concern for my situation. It would have been useless even to ask them for a ride. But when I looked into your eyes, your gentle spirit would welcome the opportunity to give me assistance in my time of need.”‎ Those heart-warming comments touched the horseman deeply. “I’m so grateful for what you have said,” he told the old man. “May I never get too busy in my own affairs that I fail to respond to the needs of others with kindness and compassion.”‎ With that, Thomas Jefferson turned his horse around and made his way back to the White House.‎ ‎4. Why didn’t the old man ask the previous riders for a ride?‎ A. Because he was waiting for the last rider.‎ B. Because his efforts failed to get their attention.‎ C. Because he assumed they had no concern for him.‎ D. Because he was too numb to lift his half-frozen body.‎ ‎5. What caused the last rider to stop and help the old man?‎ A. the old man’s poor situation B. kindness and sympathy C. his own affairs D. The old man’s warm comments ‎6. What do you know about the old man?‎ A. He gave the last rider an opportunity to help.‎ B. He lived in a cozy cottage a few miles away.‎ C. He judged people by looking into their eyes.‎ D. He recognized the president at first sight.‎ ‎7. Which can be the best title of this text?‎ A. look into your eyes B. compassion of a great man - 27 -‎ C. the last rider to help D. return to the White House ‎【答案】4. C 5. B 6. C 7. B ‎【解析】‎ 这是一篇记叙文。在一个寒冷的傍晚，一个老人等待过路的骑者带他过河。然而好几个骑者过去了，老人都无动于衷。当最后一个骑者过来的时候，老人请求他的帮助。他们顺利的到达了目的地。骑者很好奇的问老人为什么不寻求前面几个人的帮助。老人回答说没有在他们的眼中看到关心，而从这个骑者的眼中看到了关心。而这个骑者正是托马斯·杰斐逊。‎ ‎【4题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据第五段第二句I looked into the eyes of the other riders and immediately found no concern for my situation.可知老人没有请求前面骑者的帮助是因为他在这些骑者的眼中没有看到关心。故选C。‎ ‎【5题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据最后一段But when I looked into your eyes, your gentle spirit would welcome the opportunity to give me assistance in my time of need.” Those heart-warming comments touched the horseman deeply. “I’m so grateful for what you have said,” he told the old man. “May I never get too busy in my own affairs that I fail to respond to the needs of others with kindness and compassion.”可知，但是当我看着你的眼睛，你温柔的灵魂会欢迎这个机会，在我需要的时候给我帮助。 那些温暖人心的话语深深地感动了骑士。 “我很感激你所说的话，”他对老人说。 ”但愿我在自己的事务上永远不会过于忙碌，以至于无法以仁慈和同情心回应他人的需求”由此判断出最后一个骑者帮助老人是出于本身的善良和同情老人。故选B。‎ ‎【6题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据文章第五段The old man looked the rider straight in the eyes and replied, “I reckon I know people pretty good. I looked into the eyes of the other riders and immediately found no concern for my situation.可知，老人直视着骑马人的眼睛回答道:“我想我对人很了解。我看着其他骑手的眼睛，发现他们根本不关心我的处境。由此判断出老人是从他们眼神判断人的。故选C。‎ ‎【7题详解】‎ - 27 -‎ 主旨大意题。短文叙述了在一个寒冷的傍晚，一个老人等待过路的骑者带他过河。然而好几个骑者过去了，老人都无动于衷。当最后一个骑者过来的时候，老人请求他的帮助。他们顺利的到达了目的地。骑者很好奇的问老人为什么不寻求前面几个人的帮助。老人回答说没有在他们的眼中看到关心，而从这个骑者的眼中看到了关心。而这个骑者正是托马斯·杰斐逊。所以短文最佳标题为“一个伟人的同情心”。故选B。‎ C Owning a smartphone may not be as smart as you think. It may let you surf the Internet listen to music and snap photos wherever you are…but it also turns you into a workaholic, it seems.‎ A study suggests that, by giving you access to emails at all times, the all-singing, all-dancing mobile phone adds as much as two hours to your working day. Researchers found that Britons work an additional 460 hours a year on average as they are able to respond to emails on their mobiles.‎ The study by technology retailer Pixmania reveals the average UK working day is between 9 and 10 hours, but a further two hours is spent responding to or sending work emails, or making work calls. More than 90 percent of office workers have email-enabled phones, with a third accessing them more than 20 times a day. Almost one in ten admits spending up to three hours outside their normal working day checking work emails. Some workers confess(承认) they are on call almost 24 hours a day, with nine out of ten saying they make work emails and calls outside their normal working hours. The average time for first checking emails is between 6 a.m. and 7 a.m., with more than a third checking their first emails in this period, and a quarter checking them between 11 p.m. and midnight.‎ Ghadi Hobeika, marketing director of Pixmania, said, “The ability to access literally millions of apps, keep in contact via social networks and take photos and video as well as text and call has made smartphones invaluable for many people. However, there are drawbacks. Many companies expect their employees to be on call 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and smartphones mean that people literally cannot get away from work. The more constantly in contact we become , the more is expected of us in a work capacity(容量).”‎ ‎8. What can we conclude from the text?‎ - 27 -‎ A. All that glitters is not gold.‎ B. It never rains but pours.‎ C. Every coins has two sides.‎ D. It’s no good crying over spilt milk.‎ ‎9. The underlined word “accessing” in the third paragraph can be replaced by “________”.‎ A. calling B. reaching C. getting D. using ‎10. Which of the following is true according to the text?‎ A. The average UK working time is between nine and twelve hours.‎ B. Nine- tenths spent over three hours checking work emails.‎ C. One-fourth check their first mail between 11 p.m. and midnight.‎ D. The average time for first checking emails is between 6 a.m. and 8 .am ..‎ ‎11. What’s the main idea of the text?‎ A. Workaholics like smartphones.‎ B Smartphones bring about extra work.‎ C. Smartphones make our life easier.‎ D. Employers don’t like smartphones.‎ ‎【答案】8. C 9. D 10. C 11. B ‎【解析】‎ 这是一篇说明文。这篇文章主要介绍使用智能手机也许并不像你想的那样明智。使用智能手机可以让你随时随地上网、听音乐、拍照片……但也可能让你变成工作狂。最新调查显示，智能手机能让你随时查收邮件，因此这种花哨的手机会让你每天的工作时间延长多达两个小时。‎ ‎【8题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据第一段It may let you surf the Internet, listen to music and snap photos wherever you are…but it also turns you into a workaholic, it seems.文章主要介绍了使用智能手机不好的方面，虽然可以给人们提供很多方便，但是也会无形中延长人们的工作时间，由此推断出是“凡事都有两面”，故选C。‎ ‎【9题详解】‎ - 27 -‎ 词义猜测题。本段是介绍人们对手机的使用情况，故判断意思是“使用”，而且根据文章第二段首句A study suggests that, by giving you access to emails at all times, the smartphone adds as much as two hours to your working day. 在任何时候都可以访问电子邮件，让你的工作日增加了2个小时。中access也可以进行推断，所以换线出的意思为“使用”。故选D。‎ ‎【10题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据文章第三段and a quarter checking them between 11 pm and midnight. 四分之一的人在晚上11点和午夜之间检查他们的邮件。故选C。‎ ‎【11题详解】‎ 主旨大意题。文章首段提出….but it also turns you into a workaholic, it seems.，但它似乎也会让你变成一个工作狂。然后在下文进行了详细的介绍，由此可知文章中心内容是讲述智能手机给人无形中延长了工作时间，故选B。‎ D Communities change in all sorts of ways over time. My few trips home over the years have given me an idea of the long-term influence on a community when population falls even while wealth rises.‎ I come from one of the beautiful seaside towns that dot the Jersey Shore just seventy-five miles south of New York City. When I was growing up thirty-five years ago, these were lively and busy communities filed year-round with resident(居民) and full of tourists all summer.‎ Today, I notice one big change since my childhood: no people. No children playing around, no traffic in the streets and no customers looking through the storefronts. The big beautiful Victorian homes that housed families with five or more children and grandparents mow sit quiet. The line of old bicycles in the drive has been replaced by a single luxury(豪华的) car from other states.‎ Few who grew up here can afford to live in their parents’ homes today. Over time, the beauty of the place along with its perfect location turned a middle-class, family-centered neighborhood into a collection of vacation homes for the rich. The town is too expensive for the “locals” but too far from the City for workers.‎ It is not bad-just different.‎ - 27 -‎ Unless of course you own a small business that was built to serve a large year-round population. Small hardware stores, clothes shops, gift shops and independent cafes have been replaced by law offices and businesses dealing with houses and land. The hospitality(招待) industry, which includes my parents’ business, is having a hard time as there just aren’t enough customers between September and June. The land is worth more than the business itself, waiting for condo(公寓) developers.‎ Rising land and house values in Oak Park make me think of my family’s experience on the Jersey Shore. A community is more than a place-it is the people who live there. Who will live in Oak Park in thirty years? Just wondering.‎ ‎12. How was the author’s hometown when he was a child?‎ A. It was quite and small. B. It was a popular attraction in summer.‎ C. It had a lot of vacation homes. D. It was a beautiful with modern style house.‎ ‎13. What does the author care most about his hometown?‎ A. The heavy traffic. B. Changes in family structures.‎ C. Rising prices of houses. D. The falling population.‎ ‎14. Who will be seriously hurt by the changes in Oak Park?‎ A. City workers. B. Holidaymakers.‎ C. Condo developers. D. Small business owners.‎ ‎15. How does the author probably feel when writing this text?‎ A. Worried. B. Angry.‎ C. Doubtful. D. Surprised.‎ ‎【答案】12. B 13. D 14. D 15. A ‎【解析】‎ 这是一篇说明文。文章中作者通过描述自己家乡的变化，由多年前受欢迎的景点到如今的人口稀少，让作者认识到，当一个社区的人口减少而财富增加时，它会产生怎样的长期影响。作者分析了产生这一现象的原因，以及对当地人的影响。‎ ‎【12题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据第二段中When I was growing up thirty-five years ago, these were lively - 27 -‎ ‎ and busy communities filed year-round with resident and full of tourists all summer.可知35年前，我还是个孩子的时候，这里一年到头都是热闹繁忙的社区，居民络绎不绝，整个夏天都是游客。由此可知，作者小时候的家乡在夏天是一个受欢迎的景点。故选B。‎ ‎【13题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据第三段中Today, I notice one big change since my childhood: no people. No children playing around, no traffic in the streets and no customers looking through the storefronts.可知今天，我注意到我童年以来的一个大变化：没有人。没有孩子在附近玩耍，街上没有车辆，也没有顾客在沿街张望。由此可知，作者最关心的是家乡人口的减少。故选D。‎ ‎【14题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中Small hardware stores, clothes shops, gift shops and independent cafes have been replaced by law offices and businesses dealing with houses and land. The hospitality industry, which includes my parents’ business, is having a hard time as there just aren’t enough customers between September and June.可知小五金店、服装店、礼品店和独立咖啡馆已经被律师事务所和处理房屋和土地的企业所取代。酒店行业，包括我父母的生意，正处于困难时期，因为在9月至6月期间没有足够的客户。以及最后一段中Rising land and house values in Oak Park make me think of my family’s experience on the Jersey Shore.可知橡树园不断上涨的土地和房价让我想起了我们家在泽西海岸的经历。由此可知，小企业主会因为橡树园的变化而受到严重伤害。故选D。‎ ‎【15题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据最后一段中A community is more than a place-it is the people who live there. Who will live in Oak Park in thirty years? Just wondering.可知一个社区不仅仅是一个地方，而是居住在那里的人们。三十年后谁会住在橡树公园？只是好奇而已。结合文章中作者通过描述自己家乡的变化，由多年前受欢迎的景点到如今的人口稀少，让作者认识到，当一个社区的人口减少而财富增加时，它会产生怎样的长期影响。作者分析了产生这一现象的原因，以及对当地人的影响。由此可推知，作者在写这篇文章时的心情是担忧的。故选A。‎ 第二部分（共5小题；每小题3分，满分15分）‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ Worry problems are everywhere in our daily life.How to solve them？The answer - 27 -‎ ‎ is that we must equip ourselves to deal with different kinds of worries by learning the three basic steps of problem analysis.The three steps are：‎ Get the facts Why is it so important to get the facts？Unless you have the facts，you can’t possibly attempt to solve your problem intelligently.Without the facts，all you can do is wandering around in confusion.It is not an easy job to get facts.When you are worried，your emotions are riding high.___16___‎ When trying to get the facts，you can pretend that you are collecting this information not for yourself but for some other person.___17___ You can also pretend that you are a lawyer preparing to agree.Try to get all the facts both on your side and the other side of the case.You will generally find the truth lies somewhere in between.‎ ‎___18___‎ Whenever you are worried，write down the questions that make you worry.And write out all the various steps you could take and then the probable consequences of each step.For example，what am I worrying about？What can I do about it？Here is what I’m going to do about it.After carefully weighing all the facts，you can calmly come to a decision.‎ Act on that decision ‎___19___ How can you break the worry habit before it breaks you？Crowd worry out of your mind by keeping busy.Plenty of action is one of the best ways to cure worry.___20___ If you know a situation is beyond your power，say to yourself：“It is so；it can’t be otherwise.”Don’t permit little things to ruin your happiness.Try to cultivate a mental attitude that will bring you peace and happiness.‎ A. Accept what can’t be avoided.‎ B. Analyze the facts.‎ C. There comes a time when you must decide and never look back.‎ D. But here are two ideas that can help you see the facts in a clear and objective way.‎ E. Unless you take your action，all your facts－findings and analysis－are a sheer - 27 -‎ ‎ waste of energy.‎ F. Decide how much anxiety a thing may be worth.‎ G. This will help you to take a cold and fair view of the evidence.‎ ‎【答案】16. D 17. G 18. B 19. E 20. A ‎【解析】‎ 这是一篇说明文。在日常生活中，我们不可避免地会遇到很多问题。那么如何去处理这些问题呢？在本文中作者给人们提出了帮助解决问题的一些措施。比如，首先要弄清事实的性质，然后要对事实进行分析，而且作者建议人们要接受那些不可避免的事情，不要让繁琐小事干扰自己的心情。‎ ‎【16题详解】‎ 在本段中作者介绍了了解事实的重要性和难度，然后在下一段介绍了两种获取事实的方法，由此判断D选项But here are two ideas that can help you see the facts in a clear and objective way.（这儿有两个方法可以帮助你看清事实）内容可以起到承上启下的作用，故选D。‎ ‎【17题详解】‎ 前句内容是建议在试图了解事实时，要假装正在为别人收集此信息而不是为自己。由此推断空格内容应该是对这种做法进行解释，而G选项This will help you to take a cold and fair view of the evidence. （这样能帮助你对证据有更公正的看法）内容可以承接上文，是讲述的原因，选G。‎ ‎【18题详解】‎ 此题为一个小标题。由本段的内容，尤其是And write out all the various steps you could take and then the probable consequences of each step.（写出你可以采取的所有步骤，然后写出每一步可能的结果）。所以本段内容讲述了如何去分析存在的问题和情况，由此判断B选项内容Analyze the facts（分析事实）可以概括本段中心，故选B。‎ ‎【19题详解】‎ 根据本段小标题Act on that decision可以判断本段内容是关于如何采取行动的，而E选项Unless you take your action, all your facts-finding and analysis is a sheer waste of energy.（除非你采取行动，否则你所有的寻找事实和分析——都是纯粹的在浪费精力）也是关于如何采取措施。故选E。‎ ‎【20题详解】‎ - 27 -‎ 根据空后内容If you know a situation is beyond your power，say to yourself：“It is so；it can’t be otherwise.” （如果你知道某种情况超出了你的能力范围，对自己说: “就是这样，不可能是别的。）”可以判断作者建议人们要接受事实，不要让一些小事毁掉自己的快乐。故A选项Accept what can’t be avoided. （接受无法避免的事实）切题。故选A。‎ 第三部分：完形填空(共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分)‎ The tornado siren(龙卷风报警器) sounded at the Little Sioux Scout(童子军) Ranch in western Iowa just before the power went out on June 11,2008. Scout Leader Fred Ullrich___21___the door of the building where he and 65 boy scouts had taken shelter. “I was___22___lightning and listening for the tornado sound, but there was___23___like that,” Ullrich says. “But I knew we were in___24___. I asked the boys to get under the tables.” As the scouts ran for___25___,the wind came up. Ullrich tried to come in and push the door shut, but___26___he was picked up and thrown from the___27___. Then the wind blew the boy scout shelter apart. “I can only describe my actions at that moment as being___28___, ”Ullrich says. “There was nothing I could do.”‎ Once the tornado___29___, Ullrich noticed that all around him was a mess. Some scouts were covered by the debris(瓦砾). For a short moment Ullrich didn’t___30___what to do. Then he took action. He___31___the able-bodied to look after the injured. Ullrich was trained in first aid, skills that___32___helped the scouts that day.

However ‎ ‎45. in 46. had passed ‎ ‎47. who 48. simply ‎ ‎49. to rest ‎ ‎50. longer - 27 -‎ ‎【解析】‎ ‎【分析】‎ 这是一篇记叙文。主要记叙了作者和好朋友Jack在各自三十多岁时，计划步行穿越美国的事情。他们预计步行需要6个月的时间，也可能更久。‎ ‎【41题详解】‎ 考查代词。句意：一部分原因是为了测试我们自己；看看我们是否能面对这些挑战。此处指代上文“why we were doing it”这句话应用代词it。故填it。‎ ‎【42题详解】‎ 考查连接词。此处为宾语从句，从句中不缺少成分，且表示“是否”应用if或whether引导。故填if/whether。‎ ‎【43题详解】‎ 考查非谓语动词或名词。after为介词后跟动名词或名词作宾语，故填graduating/graduation。‎ ‎【44题详解】‎ 考查副词。句意：然而，我没有那样做。结合上下文语境可知为转折关系，故用连接词副词however，句首字母要大写。故填However。‎ ‎【45题详解】‎ 考查介词。根据短语in one’s thirties表示“在某人三十几岁时”。故填in。‎ ‎【46题详解】‎ 考查动词时态。此处pass发生figured之前，即“过去的过去”应用过去完成时。在故填had passed。‎ ‎【47题详解】‎ 考查定语从句。此处为非限制性定语从句修饰先行词Jack，且先行词从句中作主语，指人故用who。故填who。‎ ‎【48题详解】‎ 考查副词。修饰后文整个句子应用副词。故填simply。‎ ‎【49题详解】‎ 考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知rest在句中做非谓语动词，且此处做目的状语应用不定式。故填to rest。‎ ‎【50题详解】‎ - 27 -‎ 考查比较级。句意：我们计划平均每天步行20英里，休息几天，所以我们预计步行需要6个月的时间，意识到可能需要更长时间。表示“比六个月更长”，所以用比较级。故填longer。‎ ‎【点睛】定语从句中的关系词选择，可考虑以下几点：‎ ‎1、看清楚先行词的意义，就是理清先行词是指人、指物、时间、地点、原因。指物时不能用who或whom，指人时通常不用which等等。‎ ‎2、看清楚关系词的句法功能，就是理清关系词是担任什么句子成分，是作主语还是宾语、是作定语还是状语等等。作定语通常用whose，有时也用which。作状语要用when, where, why。‎ ‎3、看清楚定语从句种类，就是理清是限制性定语从句还是非限制性定语从句。that、why通常不引导非限制性定语从句。 ‎ ‎4、看清楚文体，就是理清是正式文体，还是非正式文体。是书面语体还是口语体。‎ 如第七小题，此处为非限制性定语从句修饰先行词Jack，且先行词从句中作主语，指人故用who。故填who。‎ 第二部分 写作（共两节，满分35分）‎ 第一节 短文改错（共10小题，每小题1分，满分10分）‎ ‎51.假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间修改作文，请你修改你同桌写的以下作文。文中共有10处语言错误，每句中最多有两处。没处错误仅涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。‎ 增加：在缺词处加一个漏字符号（∧），并在其下面写出该加的词。‎ 删除：把多余的词用斜线()划掉。‎ 修改：在错的词下面画一横线，并在该词下面写出修改后的词。‎ 注意：1.每处错误及修改均限一词；‎ ‎2.只允许修改10处，多者（从第11处起）不计分。‎ After a heat discussion, our class has decided to recommend Li Hua as the Touching Figure On the Campus.

Last summer vacation, he volunteered to teach English in a small village, which has been inspired many other students to join in and thus helped open up a new world to those children as well.‎ - 27 -‎ All in all, his selfless love touches our heart and his action suggests that even small efforts can make difference to those in need.

Beside→Besides ‎ ‎5. make →makes ‎6. study后添加in ‎7. it→what ‎8. has been inspired 中been 去掉 ‎ ‎9. difference前添加a ‎10. strong→strongly ‎【解析】‎ ‎【分析】‎ 这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了作者所在班级决定推荐李华作为校园里最动人的人物，并陈述了几个他有资格获得这项荣誉的理由。‎ ‎【详解】1.考查形容词。修饰后文名词discussion应用形容词heated，heated discussion表示“激烈讨论”。故heat改为heated。‎ ‎2.考查名词的数。reason为可数名词，由several修饰应用复数形式。故reason改为reasons。‎ ‎3.考查非谓语动词。根据短语be willing to do sth.表示“乐意做某事”，后跟不定式。故offering改为offer。‎ ‎4.考查副词。句意：此外，他对班长工作的极大投入使我们班成为了一个最好的学习场所。此处表示“而且，此外”应用副词besides，beside为介词“在旁边”。句首字母要大写。故Beside改为Besides。‎ ‎5.考查主谓一致。本句主语为his great devotion to work as a monitor，时态为一般现在时，故谓语动词用第三人称单数。故make 改为makes。‎ - 27 -‎ ‎6.考查介词。此处不定式作定语，动词不定式与其所修饰的词之间往往有动宾关系，如果该不定式是不及物动词，或者该不定式本身有宾语，其后应有必要的介词。此处不定式作定语修饰名词place，且表示“在（某地）学习”应用study in，故study后添加in。‎ ‎7.考查连接词。此处为主语从句，从句中缺少主语，指代事情应用what引导。故it改为what。‎ ‎8.考查动词语态。句意：去年暑假，他在一个小村庄志愿教英语，这激发了许多其他学生的加入，从而帮助那些孩子打开了一个新的世界。此处为非限定性定语从句修饰上文整个句子，表示“他在一个小村庄志愿教英语的行为激发了许多其他学生的加入”，与谓语动词inspire构成主动关系。故has been inspired 中been 去掉。‎ ‎9.考查冠词。根据短语make a difference表示“有影响，有关系”，中间需要冠词。故difference前添加a。‎ ‎10.考查副词。修饰后文动词support应用副词strongly，表示“强烈地”。故strong改为strongly。‎ ‎【点睛】名词性从句关键在于三点：‎ 一、找准从句在主句中充当的成分即分出是名词性从句的主语句、宾语从句、表语从句还是同位语从句；‎ 二、连接词从句中充当的成分（主、宾、定或状语或不做任何成分）；‎ 三、弄清楚每个连接词的意义。此外还要注意，近年来高考对于名词性从句的考查多从名词性从句的语序和连接词的用法区别上考查。‎ 如第七小题，此处为主语从句，从句中缺少主语，指代事情应用what引导。故it改为what。‎ 第二节 书面表达 ‎52.假如你是李华，从报纸上看到中老年英语培训机构Mid. Senior ESCH面向高中毕业生招聘暑期兼职辅导员。请用英语写一份求职信。‎ 要点如下：‎ ‎1. 表明写信目；‎ ‎2. 陈述理由。‎ 注意：1. 词数100左右；‎ ‎2. 可适当加入细节，以使内容充实、行文连贯；‎ ‎3. 开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数。‎ Dear Sir/Madam，‎ - 27 -‎ ‎___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________‎ Yours sincerely Li Hua ‎【答案】Dear Sir/Madam,‎ I’d like to apply for the post of assistant which was advertised in the newspaper.
