题目内容
12.In today's fiercely competitive business environment,companies need to communicate information concerning a whole range of issues in a clear and precise manner to their customers.This is particularly so in the case of companies which do business in areas such as manufacturing,information technology (IT),engineering products and services-companies whose products and services may not be understood by a customer not familiar with its technical aspects.These communication materials are prepared in a company these days by"technical writers"-people who can effectively communicate to an intended audience.
Technical writing and writing text-books are poles apart.The former is aimed at those who do not have an in-depth knowledge about a product and therefore should be direct and easy to understand.Too many technical terms would only add to the confusion of the customer.Technical writers first need to understand the technical information themselves,before trying to communicate it in easier language to the customers.Even graduates of English literature are often found wanting when it comes to creative and effective writing.
This simply means that those with a Bachelor's degree in English Literature along with a diploma/degree in Journalism and having a Post Graduate Diploma in Computer Applications (PGDCA) are ideal (理想的) candidates for being employed as technical writers.
A career in technical writing is seen as a good choice for women mainly because it is widely held that women are more gifted in creative writing than men and the job does not involve too much travelling or working at night.

A.To write about the company's products or services in clear,easy language.
B.To write about the company's products using correct technical terms.
C.To effectively communicate to an intended audience by writing letters.
D.To travel around to persuade people to buy the company's products or services.
29.Which of the following best explains the underlined word"wanting"in Paragraph 3?D
A.being needed.
B.wanting to write.

D.lacking in ability.
30.What would happen if many technical terms are used in technical writing?C
A.It would sound too formal.
B.It would help engineers a lot.
C.It would confuse the customer.
D.It would produce a better effect.
31.Who would be the best candidate for a technical writer?B
