Dear sir,
I read your story (of the 4th February) about the cost of living in the country rather than in the town, and I agree with most of your opinions.My husband and I lived in the middle of Horlton until two years ago a seaside (海邊) town of nearly five hundred thousand people.When my husband stopped working, we moved to our present house in a small village at the foot of Roland Hill, and there is no doubt (疑問) that our costs are higher now.
I have to do my shopping in small shops, where the food is more expensive than in city supermarkets; it costs more to travel by bus; and because the men who come to mend the television or the washing-machine, have to come further, we have to pay them more.
But it does not cost us much to enjoy what is beautiful in the country; and peace and quiet are cheap.It takes many people a lot of time and money to drive into the country to enjoy the simple things of life; yet we can enjoy them just by going out of the front door.It costs more to live here than it did in Horlton, but now life really is worth (值得) living.
Yours faithfully,
Edith Randall (Mrs)

解析試題分析:通過閱讀這封信我們可以知道,作者以前生活在城市里面,但是現(xiàn)在生活在一個山腳下的村莊里。由于離城市較遠(yuǎn),這里的花費比城里好高,但是現(xiàn)在作者覺得生活在這里很值,因為可以免費欣賞這里的美麗風(fēng)光。
【小題1】根據(jù)I lived in the middle of Horlton until two years ago a seaside (海邊) town of nearly five hundred thousand people.可知選C。
【小題2】根據(jù)I have to do my shopping in small shops, where the food is more expensive than in city supermarkets;描述可知選B。
【小題3】根據(jù)It costs more to live here than it did in Horlton, but now life really is worth (值得) living.描述可知選A。
考點:介紹自己現(xiàn)狀的一封信
點評:本文中長句較多,一時很難讀懂句子含義,注意多讀幾遍,不要強求非得理解一詞一句的含義,能把握文章大意就行。然后帶著問題閱讀短文,一般就能順利找出答題依據(jù)。對于不能直接找到根據(jù)的問題注意聯(lián)系上下文,根據(jù)短文中心總結(jié)出正確答案。

73 Xinchang Road, Beijing

June 7, 2008

Dear sir,

I am writing to introduce myself, with the hope of getting the job you advertised in Daily News.

When I was a child, I was fond of English and always got good grades. In 1994, after six years of hard work in Beijing No. 4 Middle School, I entered People’s University. I studied English there for four years.

Luckily, I got my first job when I graduated. I taught English in Beijing No. 4 Middle School from 1998 to 2001. Then I got the chance to receive further education in University of Hawaii in the US. That was a precious experience of my life. I learnt a lot during those two years, especially the differences between eastern and western cultures.

I came back to People’s University in 2003. I worked as an assistant(助手) for 2 years and then as a professor. So far, I have got 8 years of working experience.

I won lots of awards. I was an “Excellent Student” of People’s University in 1997, and “Outstanding Teacher” of Beijing No. 4 Middle School in 2000.

Thank you for reading my letter, and I will appreciate it very much if you can reply soon.

Yours sincerely

Li Guolong
