The 5 questions or unfinished statements are numbered 41 through 45. When companies need new employees, they usually place advertisements in newspapers in order to attract as many applicants as possible. But many large well-known companies hire new people frequently without putting advertisements in newspapers, because they already have many resumes on file. Therefore, it is not always best to apply only to companies that place ads in newspapers. A person looking for a job is advised to send his resume with a cover letter to a well-known company even if a position is not then open. He can follow up with a telephone call to inquire (询问) if his resume has been received and if any jobs are available. If the company has not a job at that time, he can ask them to keep his material on file and contract him in the future when something is available. Sometimes if a company is not hiring at the time, a letter explaining that a position is not currently available will be sent. If a person sends a letter and resume to a company that is not then hiring and later sees an advertisement in the newspaper for a job with that company, he should call the company to make certain they have his material on file and will consider him for the position. So, a person has nothing to lose and everything to gain by sending in his resume. 41. What kind of companies should a person write to find a job? A) Small trading companies. B) Only companies that place ads in newspapers. C) Larger, well-known companies. D) The companies which are looking for new people. 42. Which of the following is NOT true? A) Many larger, well-known companies hire new people frequently. B) A person looking for a job should only apply to companies that advertise in newspapers. C) When companies decide to hire new people, they usually place an ad in the newspaper to attract as many people as possible. D) A person looking for a job is advised to send his resume with a cover letter to a well-known company even if a position is not then open. 43. If you send your resume to a company that isn’t hiring at that time, what might the company do? A) The company might write back and tell you that there is no position available at that time. B) The company would not write back because it was not interested in you. C) The company would probably hire you anyway. D) The company would call you and tell you he has no position now. 44. According to the passage, when people are looking for jobs, what should they send to companies? A) A resume and recent photos. B) A cover letter and an application. C) A resume and a cover letter. D) Only a card. 45. True or False: Large companies always place ads in newspapers when they want to hire new people. A) True. B) False. C) The passage does not mention this. D) Both B and C. Task 3 Directions: The following is an article about how to find time to read. After reading it, you should complete the information by filling in the blanks marked 46 through 50 in the table below. For each blank, you should write no more than 3 words. All of us who live a busy life may ask this question: how can I find time to read? The answer may be 15 minutes a day at any time. No universal formula can be prescribed. Each of us must find our own 15-minute period each day. It is better if it is regular. The only requirement is the will to read. With it you can find the 15 minutes no matter how busy the day is. And you must have the book at hand. Not even seconds of your 15 minutes should be wasted starting to read. Set the book out in advance. Put it into your pocket when you dress. Put another book beside your bed. Place one in your bathroom. Keep one near your dining table. You can’t escape reading 15 minutes a day, and that means you will read half a book a week, 2 books a month, 20 a year, and 1,000 or more in a lifetime reading. It’s an easy way to become well read.
Task 4 Directions: The following is part of Information for Tourists (At Your Service).
