35、uestions 9 to 12 are based on the conversation you have just heard. (分数:16.00)A.By reviewing what he has said previously.B.By comparing memorandums with letters. C.By showing a memorandum“s structure.D.By analyzing the organization of a letter.解析:听力原文 There are a few differences in the organization
36、of memorandums and letters. Memorandums and letters differ somewhat in appearance. “To“ and “From“ replace a letter“s inside address and signature block, for example. Further, letters are usually sent outside the organization, while memorandums are usually internal messages. As internal messages, me
37、morandums tend to be more informal, and more direct than their letter counterparts. One survey of 800 business people showed they spent from 21 to 38 percent of their time writing memorandums. There must be a lot of executives over-whelmed by the number of memorandums they receive. As a result, comp
38、etition for the reader“s time places importance on directness and clarity in memorandums. So perhaps even more so than with letters. Memorandums should start with, a statement of the purpose early in the message. Memorandums also need special visual treatment: keep paragraphs short, much like newspa
39、per articles. Computers increasingly aid mid-and upper-level managers who prepare their own memorandums without secretarial help. If you prepare your own correspondence, realize the importance of dating your messages. Knowing precisely when you recommended, ordered, signed, or asked about something
40、often is crucial. Computers often call date information for you easily. Another characteristic that can set memorandums apart from letters is the inclusion of humor. When the internal message is light, hearted and relatively unimportant, humor in a memorandum can distinguish its author as a person w
41、ith personality and depth. As long as the humor is on target, does not embarrass others, is not overdone, and is not too frequent, it can reflect positively on its author.

43、时间,选 A。A.Style and wording.B.Structure and length.C.Directness and clarity. D.Simplicity and accuracy.解析:听力原文 What does the speaker say is most important in memorandum-writing? 解析 短文提到为了给接收者节约阅读时间,备忘录应该直接清楚。C 中的 Direct-ness and clarity是短文原词再现,为答案。A.Accurate dating.B.Professional look.C.Direct statem
44、ent of purpose.D.Inclusion of appropriate humor. 解析:听力原文 What characteristic of a memorandum can make readers think highly of its writer? 解析 短文末尾提到备忘录与信件的另一个不同之处在于其幽默感,如果内部信息轻松且不那么重要,备忘录中的幽默感能凸显一个人的个性和深度。末句还提到只要幽默使用得当,不过分,不过于频繁,它就能反映出书写者积极正面的形象。由此可知,D 项“包含适当的幽默”为答案。五、Passage Two(总题数:1,分数:12.00)Quest

Northup was shipped south to New Orleans, along with other slaves, where he was sold in a slave market. He spent the next
48、 12 years as a slave, working for three masters. Northup worked hard and endured much cruelty, but he was always looking for the chance to escape or contact his family and friends in New York. Finally, in 1852, Northup befrien-ded Samuel Bass, a Canadian carpenter. With his help, Northup sent a lett
49、er to his friends in New York. Through the help of his friends, he regained his freedom in 1853. Northup returned to New York, where he was finally reunited with his family. Northup has many descendants, who gathered together in Saratoga Springs on July 24, 1999, for a tribute to their ancestor.
