Last year King Computers added five new offices, making it the largest computer sales and services company in the state. I understand that one of the companys aims is to expand outs ide of the Washington area. I am seeking the opportunity to play an important role in your growing business. As a sales manager with Diamond Computers, I expanded our sales area by 150% in two years. I am confident that my leadership and experience will help King Computers achieve its goa ls, too.I have worked in the field of computer sales for over fifteen years. Currently I am a sales manager for Diamond Computers based in Seattle. I am skilled at managing accounts and increasing sales revenue(收益).Last year, my team produced $960,000 in revenue-the highest in the company. Also, I received the Diamond Sales Award for the best sales manager. In addition, I am experienced at planning sales strategies, developing advertising campaigns, and creating sales budgets. King Computers is well-known for its customer-first philosophy. In my fifteen years in sales, this way of thinking is the most important thing I have learned. A sales strategy should never be just about getting money from customers. I believe its important to take the time to listen to each customer-to understand what he or she really needs. Then, we must find the product that best matches those needs. As a sales manager for King Computers, I will be in a great position to do just that.If you are looking for a skilled sales manager with a history of success, I would be delighted to speak with you. I look forward to hearing from you soon.来源: 学科网 ZXXK Sincerely, Paul Reubens |26. According to the writer, what is one of King Computers aims? A. To set new goals. B. To add five new offices. C. To make its business bigger. D. To hire more sales managers. 27. Paul Reubens is experienced at the following EXCEPT_.A. managing accounts B. creating sales budgetsC. planning sales strategies D. designing new computers 28. Paul Reubens wrote this letter in order to_.A. tell us that he is skillful as a sales manager B. explain why he is interested in selling computersC. show that he is fit for the job at King Computers D. describe what he has experienced for over fifteen years BIts the last year of high school, and young minds are turning their attention to the thought of leaving home. This seems a natural progression: parents have children; raise children; children graduate from high school and flee far from parents, returning on weekends to eat home-cooked meals. But what happens when a child loses home right before leaving?My family has lived in my home since I was two years old. Seventeen years later, as I got ready to leave for university, my parents decided that it was time to move. And naturally, I panicked. This was the place I used to run around with friends; where I got sunburned, chasing ants with sidewalk chalk; where I would sit for hours staring out, making up songs about the passersby. If we were to move, the new house wouldnt be my home at all, just a strange, new place. After all, Id be moving out to go to university. But something still wasnt quite right.And then it hit me: this is what the move was really about. I wasnt concerned with losing my childhood bedroom. What was bothering me was that Id soon be completely responsible for myself. When I do go to university, Ill go without a safe place to come home to. Of course Ill have my familys love and support, but Ill never be able to go home again. As graduating high-school students, were all in love with the idea of going away and having wild adventures if we always have someplace to return to. Leaving the family home behind is really just growing up without a safety net. The move from one place in life to another is an important change. Because its true, you can never go home. Not really, however. Once youve had an adventure or two, you will still have a nice place to come back to for a nice visit. |29. How long has the writers family lived in their present home?A. 19 years. B. 17 years. C. 15 years. D. 2 years. 30. What was the real reason for the writers unwillingness to move? A. He treasured good memories of his childhood. B. He was afraid of taking responsibility as an adult. C. He was worried about losing his childhood bedroom. D. He liked to sit and enjoy the views outside t he house. 31. According to the last paragraph, how does the writer feel about returning home?A. Thankful. B. Impatient. C. Overjoyed. D. Nervous. 32. What is the best title for this passage? A. Childhood Memories B. Graduation Panic C. Leaving Home D. Growing Up C Why Does Walking through Doorways Make Us Forget? Weve all done it. Run upstairs to get your keys, but forget that it is them youre looking for once you get to the bedroom. Open the fridge door and reach for the middle shelf only to realize that we can't remember why we opened the fridge in the first place. We can understand those temporary moments of forgetfulness may be more than just an annoyance. Although these errors can be embarrassing, they are also common. Its known as the “Doorway Effect”, and it shows some important features of how our minds are organized. Understanding this might help us accept those temporary moments of forgetfulness as more than just an annoyance. The Doorway Effect occurs when our attention moves between levels, and it reflects the trust in our memories-even memories for what we were about to do-on the environment were in. Imagine that were going upstairs to get our keys and forget that it is the keys we came for as soon as we enter the bedroom. Psychologically, what has happened is that the plan (“Keys!”) has been forgotten even in the middle of carrying out a necessary part of the strategy (“Go to bedroom!”). Probably the plan itself is part of a larger plan (“Get ready to leave the house!”), which is part of plans on a wider and wider field (“Go to work!”, “Keep my job!”, “Be a productive and responsible citizen”, or whatever). Each field requires attention at some point. Somewhere in controlling the complex levels the need for keys suddenly comes into mind. Our memories, even for our goals, are planted in webs of connections. That can be the physical environment in which we form them, which is why revisiting our childhood home can bring back a flood of previously forgotten memories, or it can be the mental environment-the set of things we were just thinking about when that thing suddenly comes into mind. The Doorway Effect occurs because we change both the physical and mental environments, moving to a different room and thinking about different things. That hurriedly thought-up goal, which was probably only one plate among the many were trying to spin(旋转), gets forgotten when the context changes. |33. The main purpose of the first paragraph is _. A. to present daily factsB. to introduce the topicC. to remind us of our weak memory D. to call attention to the danger of forgetfulness 34. What does the writer think about those temporary moments of forgetfulness? A. They can be understood and accepted. B. They are important features of our minds. C. They show that our minds are out of order. D. They are embarrassing and should be avoided. 35. Which of the following memories was formed in the physical environment? A. A toy helps you remember a childhood friend. B. When you sing a song, you think of a former classmate. C. You are playing basketball when you remember your homework. D. While visiting your primary school, you recall a forgotten memory. 36. How is the passage mainly developed? A. By providing examples. B. By making comparisons. C. By following the order of time. D. By following the order of space. 第二部分 I. 听力理解 第三节：（共 5 小题；每小题 1.5 分，满分 7.5 分） 听下面一段对话，完成第 1 至 5 五道小题，每小题仅填写一个词。听对话前，你将有 20 秒钟 的时间阅读试题，听完后你将有 60 秒钟的作答时间。这段对话你将听两遍。 Flight Tickets Reservation Form Full Name Daniel 1 Passport No. E2698564 Departure Date Next 2, the 15 th of July Class Type Business Flight No. NWA 476 Price $900, including 3 Phone No. 4 Special Request A 5 seat来源: 学科网 ZXXK|II. 语法填空（共 10 小题；每小题 1 分，满分 10 分） 在下列句子中的空白处填入适当内容或括号内单词的正确形式。 1.
