Letter A
Dear Etty Kit,
My roommate's family wants me to have Thanksgiving dinner with them in their home. I accepted the invitation, and I'm excited about going, but I'm a little worried about it, too. The social customs in my country are very different from here, so I'm a little afraid of making mistakes.
Should I bring a gift, such as candy(糖果) or flowers？ Should I arrive on time or a little late？ At the dinner table, how can I know which fork or knife to use？ How can I let the family know that I'm thankful for their kindness？
Yours sincerely,
Confused
Letter B
Dear Confused,
It's a good idea to bring a small gift when you go to a dinner party. Flowers are always nice, or you might bring a bottle of wine if you know that the family drinks it.
You should arrive on time or five to ten minutes late. Don't get there early. If you are going to be more than fifteen minutes late, you should call and tell them.
Try to be free at the dinner table. If you don't know about choosing the correct fork, knife, or spoon ,just watch the other people ,and follow them. If you still have no idea of what to do, don't be shy about asking the person next to you. It's better to ask than to be quietly uncomfortable and nervous.
If you like the food, say so. Of course, you'll thank the host and hostess for the meal and for their kindness. It's also a good idea to send a card or thank-you note the day after.
Yours,
Etty Kit

Online doctors offering advice based on standardized symptoms are the most obvious example. Increasingly, however, remote diagnosis, that is telemedicine, will be based on real physiological data from the actual patient. A group from the University of the Kentucky has shown that by using an off-the-shelf PDA(personal data assistance) such as a Palm Pilot plus a mobile phone, it is perfectly feasible to transmit a patient’s vital signs over the telephone. With this kind of equipment in a first-aid kit, the cry asking whether there was a doctor in the house could well be a thing of the past.
Other medical technology groups are working on applying telemedicine to rural care. And at least one team wants to use telemedicine as a tool for disaster response -- especially after earthquakes. Overall, the trend is towards providing glob al access to medical data and expertise.
But there is one problem. Bandwidth is the limiting factor for transmitting complex medical images around the world -- CT scans being one of the biggest bandwidth consumers. Communications satellites may be able to cope with the short-term needs during disasters, such as earthquakes, wars or famines. But medicine is looking towards both the second-generation Internet and third-generation mobile phones for the future of distributed medical intelligence.
Doctors have met to discuss computer-based tools for medical diagnosis, training and telemedicine. With the falling price of broadband communications, the new technologies should greet an era when telemedicine and the sharing of medical information, expert opinion and diagnosis are common.
The main idea of this passage is ______.
A．what the future of health care is like
B．how online doctors operate on patients
C．first-aid kit found wider uses
D．bandwidth is the limiting factor for transmitting images

Part A
Directions: Read the following three texts. Answer the questions on each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1.
In the late summer of 2005, the remarkable flooding brought by Hurricane Katrina, which caused more than ＄ 200 billion in losses, was the worst natural disaster in U.S. history. However, even in typical years, flooding causes billions of dollars in damage and threatens lives and property in every State.
Natural processes, such as hurricanes and weather systems can cause floods. Failure of levees and dams and inadequate drainage in urban areas can also result in flooding. On average, floods kill about 140 people each year and cause ＄ 6 billion in property damage. Although loss of life to floods during the past half-century has declined, mostly because of improved warning systems, economic losses have continued to rise due to increased urbanization and coastal development.
Flooding happens during heavy rains, when rivers overflow, when ocean waves come onshore, when snow melts too fast or when dams or levees break. Flooding may be only a few inches of water or it may cover a house to the rooftop. Floods that happen very quickly are called flashfloods. Flooding is the most common of all natural hazards. It can happen in every U. S. state and territory.
And here is something else for you:
-Flood Watch or Flashflood Watch--Flooding may happen soon. Stay tuned to the radio or television news for more information. If you hear a flashflood warning, talk to an adult immediately!
-Flood Warning--You may be asked to leave the area. A flood may be happening or will be very soon. Tell an adult if you hear a flood warning. If you have to leave the area, remember to bring your Disaster Supply Kit and make arrangements for your pets.
-Flashflood Warning--A flashflood is happening. Get to high ground right away. Tell an adult!
What can be inferred about the flooding problem in U. S. from the passage？
A．The tragedy happening in 2005 is an exception from a country that barely witness floods so frequently.
B．Flood is not such a serious problem as hurricanes and other forms of natural disasters in U. S..
C．That is an extreme example to represent the serious problem of flood U. S. has been faced with for many years.
D．The example in 2005 is typical, just like any other year in U. S..

Dear Mrs. Michaels, November 7, 20__
I received your e-mail last week, stating that you will not require my services for the upcoming tax year. (141) came as a surprise to me, as I have always provided you with timely service. My records show that your company received a large refund from the government last year.
I understand that you, like many small business owners, (142) to use a do-it-yourself tax kit this year. While this method may seem less expensive because it saves money on an accountant's fees, there are hidden costs. It takes a lot of time to gather all the data needed to prepare your own taxes. My firm, on the other hand, already has this information on file, and we know the best ways to save you money on your taxes.
I hope you will think (143) your decision to forego professional accounting services this year. If you do change your mind about this, I would be more than happy to provide you with the same efficient and accurate service that I have in years past. Sincerely,
Peter Jones
