Unit 7 Reading 1 (把答案对应的字母填入相应的框内)

In order to rent and drive a car in Japan, you require a Japanese driving license or an international driving permit. In case of France, Germany and Switzerland, an official translation of your home country's driving license is required.

International driving permits must be obtained in your home country, usually through the National Automobile Association, before you leave for Japan. They are valid for one year and must be accompanied by your home country's driving license in order to be valid.

Japan recognizes only international driving permits, which are based on the Geneva Convention of 1949. Some countries, such as France, Germany and Switzerland, however, issue international driving permits, which are based on different conventions. The permits issued by those countries are not valid in Japan.

Instead, people with a French, German or Swiss driver's license can drive in Japan for up to one year with an official Japanese translation of their driving licenses. Contact the respective embassies or consulates in Japan for details on how to obtain a recognized translation. The minimum age for driving in Japan is 18 years.

Job letters and resumes must attract the attention of busy readers, who may spend only 60 seconds deciding whether to consider you further. This article gives you the tools to write a successful letter and resume. “Successful,” of course, means a letter and resume that will get you an interview. After that, your interpersonal skills will help you land the job. The letter and resume only aim to get you to the next step--the personal interview. Most job letters and resumes still get sent through the mail. However, a growing number of applicants(申请人) use the Interact to apply for jobs. For example, on-line services can place resumes into a bank used by hundreds, perhaps thousands, of companies. The resumes will be scanned with the use of software, which searches for key words that reflect abilities needed for specific jobs and then sends selected resumes to companies. Whether you use on-line techniques like e-mail and resume services or stick with the traditional approach(方式) the same basic writing principles apply. Your letter, no longer than one page, should be specific about the job you seek and your main selling points. The resume--one page or two at most--should simply, specifically, and neatly highlight(强调) your background.

Unit 9 Reading 2 (把答案对应的字母填入相应的框内)

The workers who brought the girl to the orphanage knew little about her. The streets where they found her had been her home for many years. Her parents were unknown. They left her long ago. At the orphanage, the girl, like all the children there, was taught to read and write. While she was studying at the orphanage, she learned something else—to be independent. At twenty - one, she left the orphanage and began work as a secretary. And then, in 1975, while she was still working as an ordinary secretary, something special happened. She entered the Miss Hong Kong competition and won it. This was the turning point in her life. Now her name, Mary Cheung, was known to everybody. Mary entered the competition because she wanted to show that orphanage girls could be something.

Winning the competition gave her the chance to start a new life. This led her first into television and then into business as a manager. When she was working as a manager, she had trouble with her reports. “My English just wasn’t good enough.” she says. Luckily, she had a boyfriend (who later became her husband) to help her. Mary studied management at Hong Kong Polytechnic and graduated in 1980. She started her own business in 1985. But she did not stop developing herself. She then studied at the University of Hong Kong. Since 1987, she had spent a lot of time on photography. She has held several exhibitions of her work in many places ——China, New Zealand and Paris. She still found time, however, to work on TV, write for newspapers and bring up her family. The girl from the street has come a long way, but her journey is not finished yet.

Unit 2 Reading 1(把答案对应的字母填入相应的框内)

As a home entertainment, television rapidly became more popular than any other form. A news broadcast became more immediate when people could actually see the scene in question and the movements of the figures. Films could also be available. One of the advantages of travel programs was the glimpse of faraway places which many viewers would not otherwise have seen. Though much of the entertainment was of a popular kind like quiz competitions, some remarkable cultural programs were also broadcast. Just as with radio in earlier days, a group of actors and actresses became familiar in every household. One of the most popular programs on television was sport and an interesting result of the television broadcast was the increased attendance at the actual events. How far this was due to a growth interest in the game and how far out of the people’s desire to appear on the screen is not clear.

(____) 1.Why is John Logie Baird famous in the history of television?

A. It was he who discovered the wonder of television.

B. He made the very first step towards the invention of television.

C. He developed television and was the first person to demonstrate it.

D. He was the first person to appear on television.

(____) 2.Why did the television news attract more viewers than that broadcast on radio?

A. People could actually see the people and places talked about.

B. People could be well informed staying at home.

C. People could choose to watch what they want.

D. It will make them more attractive.

(____) 3.Why were travel programs so popular?

A. The programs provided people with a lot of entertainments.

B. The programs advised people what to see and where to go.

C. People had chances to see the places where they’d like to go.

Unit 6 Reading 2 (把你所选答案的对应字母填入对应题号框内) In a time of low academic achievement by children in the United States, many Americans are turning to Japan, a country of high academic achievement and economic success, for possible answers. However, the answers provided by Japanese preschools are not the ones Americans expected to find. In most Japanese preschools, surprisingly little emphasis is put on academic instruction. In one investigation, 300 Japanese and 210 American preschool teachers, child development specialists, and parents were asked about various aspects of early childhood education. Only 2 percent of the Japanese respondents (答问卷者) listed “to give children a good start academically” as one of their top three reasons for a society to have preschools. In contrast, over half the American respondents chose this as one of their top three choices. To prepare children for successful careers in first grade and beyond, Japanese schools do not teach reading, writing, and mathematics, but rather skills such as persistence, concentration, and the ability to function as a member of a group. The vast majority of young Japanese children are taught to read at home by their parents. In the recent comparison of Japanese and American preschool education, 91 percent of Japanese respondents chose providing children with a group experience as one of their top three reasons for a society to have preschools. Sixty-two percent of the more individually oriented (强调个性发展的) Americans listed group experience as one of their top three choices. An emphasis on the importance of the group seen in Japanese early childhood education continues into elementary school education. Like in America, there is diversity in Japanese early childhood education. Some Japanese kindergartens have specific aims, such as early musical training or potential development. In large cities, some kindergartens are attached to universities that have elementary and secondary schools. Some Japanese parents believe that if their young children attend a university-based program, it will increase the children’s chances of eventually being admitted to top-rated schools and universities. Several more progressive programs have introduced free play as a way out for the heavy intellectualizing in some Japanese kindergartens.

A jobless graduate has sued her former college for the more than £40,000 she paid in tuition fees after she failed to find work. Trina Thompson, 27, claims Monroe College in New York did not do enough to help her find employment. She is seeking to recover the £42,000 she spent on getting her degree from the college in the Bronx.

Court papers showed that Miss Thompson claimed the college's career centre did not provide her with the right advice or tips on available jobs. "They have not tried hard enough to help me," she wrote about the college in her lawsuit filed at the Bronx Supreme Court. Her mother, Carol, said her daughter was "very angry at her situation" having "put all her faith" in her college.

Miss Thompson graduated with a bachelor's degree in information technology in April but has been unable to find work. She claims she was sent three emails from the college with little job advice. "I need a full-time job placement and that's what they said they were going to help me with and they didn't," said Miss Thompson. "The IT career counselor sent me about three emails saying 'oh I have this job you should apply.' That's it."

A spokesman for the university rejected the claim. Gary Axelbank, a spokesman for Monroe College, said the lawsuit was completely without merit because the college does assist its graduates in finding employment.

B. Because she couldn’t pay for the tuition fee.
