以下是旅游景点的信息：
     A. Agra Fort
     Near the gardens of the Taj Mahal stands the important 16thcentury Mughal monument known as
the Red Fort of Agra. This powerful fortress of red sandstone encompasses, within its 2.5 kmlong
enclosure walls, the imperial city of the Mughal rulers. It comprises many fairy tale palaces, such as the
Jahangir Palace and the Khas Mahal, built by Shah Jahan; audience halls, such as the DiwaniKhas; and
two very beautiful mosques.
     B. Taj Mahal
     Taj Mahal is regarded as one of the eight wonders of the world, and some western historians have
noted that its architectural beauty has never been surpassed. The Taj is the most beautiful monument
built by the Mughals, the Muslim rulers of India. Taj Mahal is built entirely of white marble. It was
constructed over a period of twentytwo years, employing twenty thousand workers. It was completed
in 1648 CE at a cost of 32 million Rupees.
     C. Keoladeo National Park
     This former duckhunting reserve of the Maharajas is one of the major wintering areas for large
numbers of aquatic birds from Afghanistan, Turkmenistan, China and Siberia. Some 364 species of
birds, including the rare Siberian crane, have been recorded in the park.
     D. Humayun's Tomb, Delhi
     This tomb, built in 1570, is of particular cultural significance as it was the first gardentomb on the
Indian subcontinent. It inspired several major architectural innovations, culminating in the construction
of the Taj Mahal. The gardens also contain the redandwhite sandstone and blackandyellow marble tomb
of Humayun's wife and the tomb of Humayun's barber.
     E. Grand Canyon National Park
     The Grand Canyon is perhaps the most awesome sight in the United States-and one of the wonders
of the world. Much of the park's beauty is related to its geology and ecology. The Skywalk at Grand
Canyon West is really exciting.
     F. Sundarbans National Park
     The Sundarbans covers 10,000 sq. km of land and water (more than half of it in India, the rest in
Bangladesh) in the Ganges delta. It contains the world's largest area of mangrove forests. A number of
rare or endangered species live in the park, including tigers, aquatic mammals, birds and reptiles.
请阅读以下旅游者的信息，然后匹配旅游者和他/她拟旅游的景点。
1. Carina is fond of art and likes traveling very much. In order to take part in the following exhibition,
she wants to take some photos of birds from all over the world, especially the rare Siberian crane. In
the meanwhile, she doesn't want to spend too much money.
2. Daisy's major is biology. She is interested in studies of tigers in India. Before graduation, she needs
to write an essay on the tiger. She hears that it is one of the largest tiger populations of any of India's
parks. And so she wants to go there to do some research.
3. Alexander is a college student of Physics. He learns that this canyon is a gift from past generations
that goes beyond what we experience. He is looking forward to going there and experiencing the
Skywalk in the park.
4. Sammy majors in history. He will visit it again this summer. He says it's built entirely of white Marble
and is one of the eight wonders of the world. Its beauty is beyond description, particularly at dawn and
sunset. It seems to glow in the light of the full moon. On a foggy morning, the visitors experience it as if
suspended when viewed from across the Jamuna River.
5. Nancy comes from the history department. Last summer she visited the ancient markets of Agra and
this year she wants to visit it again. Not long ago she said, “Arriving at the Delhi airport, we
representatives were warmly received. Our tiredness flew in seconds by the traditional welcome that
we got at the hotel's reception.” The next day they visited the famous tomb.

     BEIJING-Pharmacologist Tu Youyou has become the first scientist on the mainland to win America's
respected Lasker Award for her discovery of a new approach to malaria (疟疾) treatment.
     The 81yearold was presented with the medical prize by the Albert and Mary Lasker Foundation on
September 23, 2011 in New York.
     Tu, a scientist at the China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences in Beijing, was praised by the jury (评判委员会) for her "drug therapy (治疗) for malaria that has saved millions of lives across the globe,
especially in the developing world," according to a statement on the foundation's website.
     In early 1969, Tu was appointed head of a government project that aimed to eradicate(消灭) malaria, and it was then that she began applying modern techniques with Chinese traditional medicine to find drug
therapy for malaria.
     After detecting (检测) 380 extracts (提取物) made from 2,000 candidate recipes, Tu and her
colleagues obtained a pure substance called "Qinghaosu", which became known as artemisinin in 1972.
     An artemisininbased drug combination is now the standard regimen (养生法) for malaria, and the
World Health Organization lists artemisinin and related agents in its catalog of "Essential Medicines", said
a statement from the foundation.
     The Lasker Awards are given annually to people who have made major advances in the understanding, diagnosis, treatment, cure and prevention of human diseases since 1945.
     Lasker Awards are known as "America's Nobels" for their knack (熟练技术) of gaining future

B. It has reduced malaria.
C. It applied modern techniques with Chinese traditional medicine.

    The purpose of a letter of application (求职信) is to help you to "sell" yourself. It should state   1   the job
you want, and should tell what your abilities are and you have   2  . It should be simple, human, personal and
brief without   3   out any necessary fact.
     In writing a letter of application, keep in   4   that the things a possible employer is most   5   to want to
know about are your qualifications and your aims. The opening paragraph is perhaps the most important
part.   6   the first few sentences fail to   7   the reader's attention, the rest of the letter may not be   8   at all.
Try to key your opening remarks to the needs or interests of the employer not   9   your own need or desires.
For example, instead of beginning with "I saw your  10  in today's paper," you might say "I have made a
careful  11  of your advertising during the past six months" or "I have made a survey in my neighborhood to
find out how many housewives  12  your product and why they like it."
     Try to  13  generalities. Be clear about the kind of job for which you are now  14 . College graduates
looking for their first positions often ask "What can I  15  in a letter? Employers want experience-which,
naturally, no  16  has." The answer is that everything you have ever done is  17 .
     It is important to write a good strong closing for your letter.  18  a specific request for an interview or
give the possible employer something definite to do or expect. An excellent  19  is to enclose (内附) a stamped,
self-addressed envelope with your letter. That makes it  20  for a possible employer to get in touch with you.
