20、under twenty-five make up nearly half of the American population. Many of these will soon be in charge of the nation. Naturally, their ideas are important to everyone in the country, and it is necessary for older people to understand what they think and feel. College students today have strong opini
21、ons about right and wrong. They are deeply interested in making a better life for all people, especially for those who have not been given a fair chance before now.

28、 need to use cars to get from one place to another quickly. Today, society places a lot of emphasis on technology.

This article gives you the tools to write a successful letter and resume. “Successful,“ of course, means a letter and resume that will get
36、you an interview. After that, your interpersonal skills will help you land the job. The letter and resume only aim to get you to the next stepthe personal interview. Most job letters and resumes still get sent through the mail. However, a growing number of applicants use the Internet to apply for jo
37、bs. For example, on-line services can place resumes into a bank used by hundreds, perhaps thousands, of companies. The resumes will be scanned with the use of software, which searches for key words that reflect abilities needed for specific jobs and then sends selected resumes to companies. Whether
38、you use on-line techniques like e-mail and resume services or stick with the traditional approach (方式) the same basic writing principles apply.

Children kick a football around for fun. When t
43、hey get older and play for local school teams, they become competitive but they still enjoy playing. The individual representing his country cannot afford to think about enjoying himself; he has to think only about winning. He is responsible for entire nation“s hopes, dreams and reputation. A good e
44、xample is the football World Cup. Football is the third world“s most important sport. Winning the World Cup is perhaps the summit of international sporting success. Mention Argentina to someone and the chances are that he“ll think of football. In a sense, winning the World Cup put Argentina on the m
45、ap. Sports fans and supporters get quite unreasonable about the World Cup. People in England felt that their country was somehow important after they won in 1966. Last year thousands of Scots sold their cars, and even their houses, and spent all their money traveling to Argentina, where the finals w
46、ere played. So, am I arguing that international competition kills the idea of sport? Certainly not! Do the Argentineans really believe that because eleven of their men proved the most skillful at football, their nation is in every way better than all others? Not really. But it“s nice to know that yo
47、u won and that in one way at least your country is the best.（分数：10.00）(1).What is the author“s main purpose in the passage?（分数：2.00）A.To explain the role of sport.B.To compare Scotland with Argentina.C.To show that Argentina is better than all others.D.To prove that football is the world“s most impo

49、sportsD.large number of sports fans and supporters(4).According to the passage, if a sportsman only thinks about winning, he will _.（分数：2.00）A.fail to succeedB.lose enjoymentC.be successfulD.be unreasonable(5).What is the author“s attitude towards international games?（分数：2.00）A.Nations that meet on a football field are unlikely to meet on a battlefield.B.Nations that win
