26、Thank-You Emails After a Job Interview
Your hard work toward getting a job is not over when the interview ends. Following every interview, it’s required that you send a thank-you note to your interviewer. Some tips are as follows.
【1】 Keep a formal and professional tone in your thank-you email, even if the interview is a laid-back (安详放松的) one. Keep in mind that the interviewer may forward your email to others to review. Do not refer to the interviewer by his first name unless he introduced himself that way. Avoid greetings like “Hey”. 【2】
Express excitement. In the first sentence of your email, thank the interviewer for his time and show your interest in the position. For example, write, “【3】 I enjoyed learning more about your company, and I would love to be a part of the team.” Include information that you learned during the interview or through your research about the organization.
Add related information. Thank-you emails are a chance to add information about your skills, experience and qualifications (资历). 【4】 If the interviewer asked for further information, include it in your thank-you email.

27、Do you remember what happened on Sponge Bob Square Pants yesterday? The day before? If so, you may be in need of a TV timeout!
Kids today are watching more TV than they watched before, researchers say. Kids ages 6 to 11 in the United States watch more than three hours of TV each day. Ten years ago, children watched only about two hours and 40 minutes of TV each day.
Why the increase? Experts say more TV shows today are focused, or aimed, at kids.
Some people want to limit kids' TV time. Researchers say that children who watch TV shows for more than three hours a day do not do as well in school. However, some programs can help kids learn. One example is BrainSurge. Some people say the show teaches kids facts.
How do you know whether a TV show can make you smart? Think about what you learn from watching, says Aletha Huston. She is a TV expert. But, she warns, don't spend too much time watching. “Limit the amount you watch. Get off the couch and do something else.”

28、 A 15-year-old Indian girl, Kumari, who pedalled her injured father more than a thousand kilometres across India, has been invited to try out for the national cycling team.
In January, a motor-bike driver, Mohan Paswan, who made a living by carrying passengers in New Delhi, was injured in a traffic accident. After the accident, Paswan couldn't drive. So his daughter, Kumari took a train across the country to take care of him. But without income, Paswan could no longer afford the rent and they were running out of food. They decided to go home. With the last $20, the 15-year-old girl bought an old bicycle, and planned to take her father to their home village across India --- in a heroic, life-saving ride.
Kumari rode a bicycle with her father, sitting on the pillion(后座)and holding their belongings from Gurugram city, near New Delhi, to their village in the northeastern state of Bihar. They arrived home on May 16 after covering 1,200 kilometres (745 miles) in seven days.
The father and daughter's arduous journey on a second-hand bike bought with their remaining funds made headlines. It also caught the attention of the Cycling Federation of India, which offered Kumari the chance to try out for the country's team. "She covered this long and difficult distance in seven days with her father and some luggage too. I thought she has something in her endurance level. We can try her," chairman Onkar Singh told the journalist.
“She said she only wants to pursue her studies. We told her that we also take care of studies at our academies. Singh said the federation would test Kumari to see if she is suitable for competitive cycling.
There were also other people who praised Kumari's efforts, describing it as a "'beautiful model of endurance and love."

29、A diary is a way of writing down your memories, but it has other benefits as well. 【1】 To make diary writing an interesting part of your daily life, you can take the following tips.
Give your diary a special purpose. During some time of your life, you may not feel like there's much interesting going on. This can make it harder to write something interesting every day. 【2】 For example, you can try a nature diary, in which you write about plants, animals, weather or other natural things.
【3】 For example, your favorite band come to your city. You can describe the expectation you have before they walk onto the stage. You can also write how the sound of the musical instruments makes your whole body feel like shaking and how excited and happy you are when they play your favorite song.
Be honest. Remember this writing is just for you. Filling your diary with your honest thoughts will make the experience more interesting. 【4】
Use your diary for creative writing. Most people think of a diary as a personal story.Indeed, a lot of diary writing is just that. 【5】 It works better when you don't feel like having much to say. Some people use their diaries to write short stories or their own songs.

A boy was seated next to me, carrying a lot of ________ . Suddenly, he turned to me and gave me one of the most ________ smiles I had ever seen from a stranger. Warmly, he said, “Hi, the perfect day in the perfect place, huh?”
I remember thinking to myself — this must be one of those ________ people who is young and naive and just thinks everything is beautiful and easy. Why was he ________ me when I just wanted to enjoy the bus ride? But out of ________ I replied, “Perfect!

But he smiled and told me that for 10 years, he had only one thing on his mind — to join the army school like his grandfather. “My grandpa was a general of the army. He left me this,” he said ________ . He showed me a golden knife and said this was the best ________ of his childhood. “The only thing I know is that I will follow my dream and every day I will be happy.” Soon, the bus reached his stop, he stood up, took all his suitcases, and said goodbye with a big smile.

32、阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段, 使之构成一篇完整的短文。
My best friend's mother was a social worker in Detroit, Michigan. Because of that, my friend Victoria and I were introduced early to the world of volunteering.
We did plenty of charity(慈善) work. We always had a good time, and continued to volunteer whenever we had time, often even when we didn't. It became second nature. Hairstyles came and went, but Victoria and I found places to donate our time because that's how we were raised.
One particular morning we signed up for "Paint the Town",an organization in Detroit to help lowincome homeowners clean their houses. We were assigned(分配) a dilapidated(破烂的) house in one of the worst communities of the city. I was afraid as we got near to the front door, not knowing who we would find on the other side. We knocked three times quickly and stepped back, waiting to be let in.
When the door opened, my mouth did, too. Standing there was a little old lady with wisps(一束) of white hair and a purple apron(围裙) tied around her waist.
"Hello" she said, "I'm Amelia. Please come in and I will show you where to start."Her smile shone brightly. “I am just baking some cookies for you girls to eat.”
As she led us to the parts of her house that needed painting, my heart softened. Here was one of the scariest looking houses in the city, but behind its doors was a sweet old lady with a cane and a big smile.
Here we were coming to help her, and instead she was doing something for us—baking homemade cookies and serving us tea!
注意:(1)续写词数应为150左右;
(2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
There was no age barrier that day as we worked on Amelia's house.
