阅读下列材料,从所给的六个选项(A、B、C、D、E和F)中，选出符合各小题要求的
最佳选项。选项中有一项是多余项。
you are a secretary of the magazine CR (Crazy English Reader), for each one find a suitable reply from
A-F. Mark the correct letter (A-F) on your answer sheet. There is one extra reply which you don't need
to use.
1. I am a reader of CR. Recently I found students translate some articles of CR. I appreciate your
offering an opportunity to us beginners to practise using English. So I want to ask how they can obtain
these articles and translated them for you, and what qualities you require. Thank you.
2. I love your Crazy English Reader magazine! It provides valuable data for work in our English
teaching. My wife and I are teaching Conversational English so I've been giving you a bit of a plug at our
middle school. I told the students to "get a copy!" It's good stuff! Fantastic!
3. I'm one of Yao's fans from Guangzhou. I have read the Yao Ming articles in No.7 Crazy English
Reader. I want to know his correspondence address and the official website. Could you please tell me?
Thank you very much indeed.
4. First of all, I must say thank you very much to all the CE Reader editors who gave us a really
good English magazine. Secondly, I want to give you a piece of advice. In each passage, you gave us
some new words with their Chinese translation. However, as far as my knowledge, I think you should
give us not only the Chinese meaning but also the English meaning so as to know the words more
accurately. Thank you!
5. I am an editor of the English Monthly of our school. I have a question that is how to say the
position of the paper e.g., 总编 责任编辑 and so on. I hope you can help me to tell me the word in
English. The more the better. Thank you so much! I love the book very much. Now, I do this work, I
need study more information about this work, if you have time, please email me. Thank you.
A. Thank you for your suggestion. We may try that in some future issues of CR. I think the best way
to improve your reading vocabulary is to be able to guess the meaning of the word from the other words
around it. Also, if you have an English dictionary, it's good to look up the words and then mark them
down in a notebook and review them later on. Then if you really want to learn how to use the words, try
using them in conversation or in writing. Hope this helps.
B. The best way for you to learn the different positions in a newspaper or magazine is to get a copy
of an all-English magazine or newspaper and then copy down the different positions. There are also titles
such as Managing Editor, reporter, Copy Editor, Photo Editor and Layout Editor. I hope this helps. If
you have some more specific questions, you can send them to me and I'll try to answer.
C.The best way to reach Yao directly is through his home team, the Shanghai Sharks. You can write
him at 2570 Xietu Road, Shanghai. For more information on Yao, you can look at the sports section in
sina. com. I hope this helps. Another idea is that you can try to write Yao while he's living and playing in
Houston. You can try to reach Yao in the US at: Yao Ming Compaq Centre 10 Houston, TX 77046
D.Thank you for being such a careful reader of CR. Yes, you're right we made a mistake in the writing of that Chinese word. Each issue we try to read very carefully each article and its translation to make sure
there are no mistakes, but unfortunately a few mistakes always get by. But you encourage us to keep
improving, so thank you.
E. Yes, we do have several students who help us translate some of the articles in our magazine. We
contact these translators directly after interviewing their translation work. Afterwards we assign the
articles to them for translation. If you are interested in being one of our translators you can send us some
information about yourself and a sample of your translation work.
F. Thank you for helping us to promote CR. We're glad it's helpful to your students. We always try to
include articles that reflect real life. It's our hope that CR will not only improve student's English but also
open up a different worldview.

听力原文：(Text 10)?
Tokyo, the capital of Japan, is one of the largest cities of the world．It is also one of the world’s most modern cities．Twice this century, the city was destroyed and rebuilt．In 1923, a major earthquake struck the city．Thousands of people were killed and millions were left homeless as buildings collapsed and fires broke out throughout Tokyo．It took seven years to rebuild the city．During World War Ⅱ, Tokyo was destroyed once again．As a result of these disasters there is nothing old Tokyo remaining in the downtown area．
After the war, the people of Tokyo began to rebuild their city．Buildings went up at a fantastic rate, and between 1945 and 1960, the city’s population is more than doubled．Because of the Olympic games held in Tokyo in 1964, many new stadiums, parks, and hotels were built to accommodate visitors from all over the world．As a result of this rapid development, however, many problems have arisen．Housing shortage, pollution, and waste disposal have presented serious challenges to the city, but the government has begun programs to answer them．
