摘要:Which of the following is the right order of the least-first of the percent of illiterates? A. Germany, Cuba, Nicaragua. B. Germany, Nicaragua, Cuba. C. Nicaragua, Japan, Cuba. D. Cuba, Japan, Nicaragua. C Never in the history of Sierra Leone’s elections have women so actively engaged in politics or competed for parliamentary seats. In the past, women did the dancing and cooking for elections campaigning. In the May 14th elections, we saw over 168 women candidates competitive for President, Vice President and Parliamentary seats. One would think that about 60% of these women would have emerged as winners. But it was not so, because of our cultural perception of women. We need to change our culture. Women could be active politicians. The Christians in their own way encouraged women to be preachers but the Muslim leaders say women should not head for officiating prayers. The same happens in certain parts of the country where women are not part of decision taken in male secret societies. This prevents them from achieving some of their goals. A senior head in one of the ministries told me that she was getting problems with some of her staff members especially the male staff. Most women that come from the Northern part of country experience such problems. Some men are saying that a woman cannot be their leader. Some women are also prejudiced against their women folks. In the last elections, most woman did not support their colleagues. In some parts of the country, because they are not members of secret societies they were not allowed to contest for chieftaincies . However, Sierra Leones not withstanding the cultural prejudice against women has witnessed women occupying high public offices. They have been appointed to head certain areas. Sierra Leone is moving from its past culture. We need a change in our culture. Women all over the world are recognized one way or the other as they are now involved in the use of technology. We now see women as air pilots, and they even attempt to go to travel in space.

Beijing's broadened ban on smoking in public places took effect Thursday, adding force to the effort to hold a smoke-free Olympics.

The new rules extend existing anti-smoking regulations to more places, including fitness centers, cultural relic sites, offices, meeting rooms, dining halls, toilets and lifts. Restaurants, Internet cafes, parks, and waiting halls at airports, railway stations and coach stations are required to set up smoking areas. Hotels will have to offer smoke-free rooms or floors, but the regulations do not specify a proportion.

    However, some restaurant owners have complained that it would be difficult to have a separate smoking room as required by the new regulations. "We plan to issue specific rules to solve this problem as soon as possible," Rao Yingsheng, vice-director of the Beijing Committee for Patriotic Public Health Campaign, was quoted by the Beijing News as saying Thursday. He said small restaurants without a separate room should set aside at least 70 percent of their area for non-smokers. He also said customers and restaurant owners would be asked for their thoughts on the new rule.

    Local authorities dispatched about 100,000 inspectors to make sure the ban was being enforced Thursday. Everyone has the right to dissuade people from smoking in public places, Liu Zejun, who works for the Beijing committee, said. "Citizens are encouraged to expose those who refuse to obey the rule by calling the free telephone line 12320," Liu said.

    People caught smoking in forbidden areas will be fined 10 yuan ($1.40), while enterprises and institutions that violate(违反) the ban will face fines of between 1,000 yuan and 5,000 yuan. Smoking was forbidden in hospitals, kindergartens, schools, museums, sports venues and other places before the new regulations took effect. From Oct 1 last year, the city also banned smoking in its 66,000 cabs, and imposed fines of 100 yuan to 200 yuan on drivers caught smoking in taxis.

    China has pledged a cigarette-free, green Olympics. This year's event will be the first non-smoking Olympic Games since the Framework Convention on Tobacco Control (FCTC), of which China is a signatory(签名人), went into effect in 2005.

The passage mainly tells us _____.

    A. There will be more places where smoking is forbidden.

    B. More people should give up smoking.

    C. Broadened ban on smoking in public places took effect in order to set up a non-smoking Olympic Games.

Smoking is _____ at airports, railway stations or coach stations etc.

    A. forbidden         B. allowed

Which of the following is Not true according to the passage?

  You are going to read a text about the tips on resume writing, followed by a list of examples.Choose the best example from the list A-F for each numbered subheading(1-5).There is one extra example which you do not need to use.

  What follows are tips on writing a functional resume that will get read-a resume that makes you come alive and look interesting to employers.

1.Put yourself first:

In order to write a resume others will read with enthusiasm, you have to feel important about yourself.

2.Sell what you can do, not who you are:

Practise translating your personality traits, character, accomplishments and achievements into skill areas.There are at least five thousand skill areas in the world of work .

Many people are at a loss when asked to think about their abilities, some think they have none at all! But everyone does, and one of yours may just be the ticket an employer would be glad to punch-if only you show it.

3.Be specific, be concrete, and be brief!

Remember that“brevity is the best policy.”

4.Turn bad news into good:

Everybody has had disappointments in work.If you have to mention yours, look for the positive side.

5.Never apologize:

If you’re returning to the work force after fifteen years as a parent, simply write a short paragraph(summary of background)in place of a chronology of experience.Don’t apologize for working at being a mother; it’s the hardest job of all.If you have no special training or higher education, just don’t mention education.

The secret is to think about the self before you start writing about yourself.Take four or five hours off, not necessarily consecutive, and simply write down every accomplishment in your life, on or off the job, that made you feel effective.When you’re satisfied, send it to a printer.It shows an employer that you regard job hunting as serious work,worth doing right.

Isn’t that the kind of person you’d want working for you?

A

A woman who lost her job as a teacher’s aide due to a cutback(缩减)in government funding wrote:“principal of elementary school said I would be the first teacher they would rehire if, government funds became available.”

B

One resume I received included the following:“Invited by my superior to straighten out our organization’s accounts receivable(应收款的).Set up orderly repayment schedule, reconciled(调和,和解)accounts weekly, and improved cash flow 100 per cent.Rewarded with raise and promotion.”Notice how this woman focuses on results, specifies how she accomplished them, and mentions her reward-all in 34 words.

C

For example,if you have a flair for saving, managing and investing money, you have money management skills.

D

An acquaintance complained of being biased when losing an opportunity due to the statement“Ready to learn though not so well educated”.

E

One of my former colleagues, for example, wrote three resumes in three different styles in order to find out which was more preferred.The result is, of course, the one that highlights skills and education background.

F

A woman once told me about a cash flow crisis her employer had faced.She’d agreed to work without pay for three months until business improved.Her reward was her back pay plus a 20 percent bonus.I asked why that marvelous story wasn’t in her resume.She answered,“It wasn’t important.”What she was really saying of course was“I’m not important.”

请根据以上内容,给那5个建议选出最匹配的,最能说明情况的例子。

1.________

A

2.________

B

3.________

C

4.________

D

5.________

Have you ever got stuck with unwanted courses or a class schedule that cannot be changed? If so, that’s because you don’t know how to select the perfect schedule. But by following a few simple steps, you can begin any term with the right courses at the most convenient times.

    First, you must find the right courses. These are the ones that have the least amount of work, the fewest tests and the kindest professors. Ask your friends about courses in which they received A’s after attending only 70 percent of the classes. Ask around, too, to see which instructors have given the same tests for the last fifteen years. Photocopies of these tests are usually cheap and can be easily found in school. Then, pick up a copy of the master schedule and study it carefully. Find the course titles that mean an easy pass for a painless subject. Look for titles like Arts and Crafts for Beginners,” and Rock Music of the 1950s.”

   Next, when you have got lists of easy instructors and subjects, you can begin to select your time periods. If you stay up late in order to watch old movies, you may want a daily schedule that begins no sooner than noon. You should schedule only afternoon courses, too, if you’re one of those people who hate to leave a warm bed in the morning. On the other hand, if you are a person who gets out of bed at dawn, you may want to get your classes out of the way as early as possible. That way you have the rest of the day free. Morning classes are also necessary if you are a soap opera(肥皂剧) fan.

    Finally, you want your schedule to pass through registration successfully. The main way to do this is to register(注册)early. If a course does happen to be closed because you simply couldn’t register at 7:00 a.m., you may still be able to get in.  Talk to the professor and tell him or her that a serious and hardworking student like yourself would be a shining example to other students. Be sure to carry a list of backup courses to registration, though, just in case one of your chosen classes changes professors or time periods.

   By following these suggestions, any student can pick the perfect class schedule. College can thus become an almost pleasant activity.

1. Which of the following statements is true?

AYou can get copies of tests if you are willing to pay the price.

BRock Music of the 1950s may be an easy course.

CIt is difficult to pick the perfect class schedule.

DAttendance is required in all classes.

2. You should ________ .

Aregister for classes in the morning if you get up early

Bhave classes late in the morning if you stay up late

Csign up for afternoon classes if you want to see soap operas

Dchoose classes in the evening if you want to watch old films

3. If a course happens to be closed, you should ________.

Aregister at 7:00 a.m.

Bsit in on the class anyway

Cregister for aback-up course

Dget help from the professor

4. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
