14.Dear Ms.Smith,
I am writing to apply for the Sales Manager position on the careers page of the King Computers website.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 company's aims is to expand outside 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 goals,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 it's 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.
Sincerely,
Paul Reubens

19.
While the presence of rats in homes may cause anxiety and annoyance,they rarely result in driving out the residents.But that is exactly what happened to the inhabitants of the 10-squaremile Hawadax Island off the coast of Alaska,almost 230 years ago.Now thanks to a five-year effort by scientists,the terribly silent"Rat Island"as it had been called for many years has been returned to its rightful owners--birds!
Hawadax Island is part of a chain of volcanic islands in the Bering Sea called the Aleutian Islands.The rats that arrived there in 1780,when a Japanese ship carrying them broke down nearby,completely destroyed the native population because the environment of the island was not built to defend its animals from these predators.There isn't any tree on the Island,which meant that the birds were accustomed to building their nests low in the ground,giving the rodents easy access to both eggs and baby chicks.As years passed,the birds that had called the island home for thousands of years became endangered and eventually,disappeared completely.
In 2007,the U.S.FWS (Fish and Wildlife Service) started a serious plan to rid the island of the rats and try bringing back the beautiful birds that had once called it home.Given that there were an estimated 10,000rodents inhabiting"Rat Island"and the fact that they reproduce rapidly,it was not an easy task.But by 2009,the Island was officially declared rat free!
Then slowly but surely,the birds began to return.Unfortunately,some of the pioneers were unintentionally killed from the leavings of the raticide,a poison that had been used to wipe out the rodents.But now it seems things are becoming more stable and the Island is starting to increasingly look like its former self.Before the transformation,"Hawadax",also known as"Rat Island",was a silent and ghostly place with bird bones,snail remains and rocks covered in rat feces(粪便).
Today birds'singing and flying in and out is a common sight.Tufted puffins and song sparrows,which had long disappeared,are gradually making their way back.Scientists have also been observing an increase in ground nesting and shorebirds.Though the Island is still not back to its full glory,the signs are encouraging and things can only get better,as time passes.

67.The underlined word"that"in Para.1 probably refers toB.
A.the presence of rats           B.birds'being driven out
C.birds'returning to the island    D.residents'worrying about rats

A.this island was treeless     B.they nested randomly
C.they reproduced too rapidly   D.their chicks were extremely weak
69.From the passage,we can know the plan of US FWSC.
A.has helped the island fully recovered
B.cost little but benefited greatly
C.involved poisoning the rats on a large scale
D.accomplished its goal after exactly 24 months
70.Which would be the best title for the passage?D
A.FWS Help Get Rare Birds Back to Alaska Island
B.Japanese Changed a Bird Paradise into Rat Island
C.FWS Plan to Drive Rats Out Of Rat Island
D.Alaska's Rat Island Returns to a Bird Paradise.
13.Canada cruisesIn a country bordered by two oceans and filled with ucountable numbers of lakes,finding a Canada cruise(乘船游览)is an easy task.Whatever region of the country you find yourself in,there is sre to be a Canada cruise suited to your liking.
One of the most popular Canada cruises takes you through the Inside Passage up to Alaska.Vancouver in British Columbia is a major starting point for such cruises.These popular cruises from Canada take over 1million people a year on this breathtaking journey up north.If you are in Vancouver during the summertime,you can see five cruise ships waiting for passengers at the scenic Canada Place Pier.
Holland America offers two routes leaving from Vancouver:Glacier Discovery Cruises and Glacier Bay Inside Passage Cruises.Both routes travel through glacial waters,often with sightings of whales and other wildlife.Besides the wonderful scenery,the frontier towns and the Northern Lights,Holland America also provides onboard naturalists to interpret the views from deck.All cruise ships offer shows and entertainment,pools,gyms and massive amounts of food in case the scenery fails to hold your attention.
On the other side of the country,Canada cruises on the St.Lawrence River draw crowds.Leaving from Kingston are Ontario cruises of the Thousand Islands.The St.Lawrence leaves from the dock at the foot of Brock Street.The Island Queen cruises up the river.The Island Star serves lunch or dinner on the cruises which last over three hours.
On the same river,but leaving from Montreal CMTA Group offers one-week cruises,leaving every Friday.These cruise ships offer scenic views of the Iles de la Madel eine archipelago,the Gaspesie peninsula,the town of Perce,Bonaventure Island,and Quebec City.You will feel like one of the early Canadian discoverers as you take their river route through early settlement lands.
