第二节 完形填空(共15小题;每小题1分,满分15分)
The purpose of a letter of application(求职信) is to help you to “sell” yourself. It should state clearly the job you want, and should tell what your abilities are and what you have ___36___. It should be simple, human, personal and brief without ___37___ out any necessary facts.
In writing a letter of application, keep in ___38___ that the things a possible employer is most ___39___ to want to know about your qualifications(条件), your achievements and your aims. The opening paragraph is perhaps the most important part. ___40___ the first few sentences fail to ___41___ the reader’s attention, the rest of the letter may not be ___42___ at all. Try to key your opening remarks to the needs or interests of the employer not ___43___ your own need or desires. For example, instead of beginning with “I saw your ___44___ in today’s newspaper,” you might say “I have made a careful ___45___ of your advertising during the past six months” or “I have made a survey in my neighborhood to find out how many housewives ___46___ your product and why they like it.
Try to avoid generalities(普遍性). Be clear about the kind of job for which you are now ___47___. College graduates looking for their first positions often ask “What can I ___48___ in a letter?

The days of elderly women doing nothing but cooking huge meals on holidays are gone. Enter the Red Hat Society ---a group holding the belief that old ladies should have fun.
“My grandmothers didn’t do anything but keep house and serve everybody. They were programmed to do that,” said Emils Comette, head of a chapter of the 7-year-old Red Hat Society.
While men have long spent their time fishing and playing golf, women have sometimes seemed to become unnoticed as they age. But the generation now turning 50 is the baby boomers(生育高峰期出生的人), and the same people who refused their parents’ way of being young are now trying a new way of growing old.
If you take into consideration feminism(女权主义), a bit of spare money, and better health for most elderly, the Red Hat Society looks almost inevitable(必然的). In this society, women over 50 wear red hats and purple(紫色的) clothes, while the women under 50 wear pink hats and light purple clothing.
“The organization took the idea from a poem by Jenny Joseph that begins: “When I am an old woman, I shall wear purple. With a red hat which doesn’t go,” said Ellen Cooper, who founded the Red Hat Society in 1998. When the ladies started to wear the red hats, they attracted lots of attention.
“The point of this is that we need a rest from always doing something for someone else,” Cooper said. “Women feel so ashamed and sorry when they do something for themselves.” This is why chapters are discouraged from raising money or doing anything useful. “We’re a ladies’ play group. It couldn’t be more simple,” added Cooper’s assistant Joe Heywood.
55.From the text, we know that the “baby boomers” are a group of people who
A.have gradually become more noticeable.
B.are worried about getting old too quickly.
C.are enjoying a good life with plenty of money to spend.
D.tried living a different life from their parents when they were young.
56.It could be inferred from the text that members of the Red Hat Society are
A.interested in raising money for social work.
B.programmers who can plan well for their future.
C.believers in equality between men and women.
D.good at cooking big meals and taking care of others.
57.Who set up the Red Hat Society ?
A.Emily Comette. B.Ellen Cooper. C.Jenny Joseph. D.Joe Heywood.
C
Today, air travel is far safer than driving a car on a busy motorway. But still there is a danger that grows every year. Airliners get larger and larger. Some airplanes can carry over 300 passengers. And the air itself becomes more and more crowded. If one large airliner struck into another in mid-air, 600 lives could be lost.
From the moment an airliner takes off to the moment it lands, every movement is watched on radar screens. Air traffic controllers tell the pilot exactly when to turn, when to climb, and when to come down. The air traffic controllers around a busy airport like London-Heathrow may deal with 2,500 planes a day. Not all of them actually land at the airport. Any plane that flies near the airport comes under the orders of the controllers there. Even a small mistake on their part could cause a terrible accident.
Recently such a disaster almost happened. Two large jets were flying towards the airport. One was carrying 69 passengers from Toronto, the other 176 passengers from Chicago. An air traffic controller noticed on his radar screen that the two planes were too close to each other. He ordered one to turn to the right and to climb. But he made a mistake. He ordered the wrong plane to do this. So, instead of turning away from the second plane, the first plane turned towards it. Fifteen seconds later it flew directly in front of the second plane. They avoided each other by the smallest part of a second. The distance between them was less than that of a large swimming pool. This is an example of the danger that grows every year.
58. The air traffic controllers of an airport .
A. control all the planes flying near the airport
B. give orders to planes leaving the airport
C. only deal with the planes that want to land there
D. are ordered to handle 2500 planes a day in England
59. The danger of air crashes grows every year because .
A. airliners are getting larger and air traffic is becoming heavier
B. a pilot does not always hear a controller’s order
C. a controller is likely to make more and more mistakes
D. airports can hardly serve the growing number of airplanes
60. The example in the passage is to show that .
A. air traffic controllers are often careless
B. air traffic controllers should pay much attention to avoiding accidents
C. it is difficult for airplanes to avoid terrible accidents
D. two planes should not fly too close to each other
