【題目】Dear Customers,

I love slipping into a comfortable chair for a long read－as I relax into the chair; I also relax into the author’s words, stories and ideas. The physical book is so elegant that it disappears into the background and what remains is the author’s world.

Today, we, at Amazon, are excited to announce Mindle, a wireless, portable reading device with instant access to more than 90, 000 books, magazines and newspapers.

We’ve been working on Mindle for more than three years. Our top design goal was for Mindle to

disappear in your hands―to get out of the way－so you can enjoy your reading, also wanted to go beyond the physical book. Mindle is wireless, so whether you’re lying in bed or riding a train, you can think of a book and have it in less than 60 seconds. No computer is needed－you do your reading directly from the device.

We chose the same wireless technology used in advanced mobile phones. But unlike phones there are no monthly wireless bills, no service or data plans, and no yearly contracts. There is no software to install. We want you to get lost in your reading and not in the technology.

Mindle uses a new kind of display called electronic paper. Sharp and natural with no strong light reading on Mindle is nothing like reading from a computer screen. Mindle weighs only 10. 3 ounces－less than a paperback. but can carry two hundred books.

Enjoy learning about Mindle and many thanks!

Jeff Bezos Founder CEO

【題目】A rejection letter is one of those letters that are not very easy to write.【1】. For example, organizations usually have to send rejection letters to applicants they cannot hire. So how to write a rejection letter?

Make the words professional and proper

What matters most in a rejection letter is the professional tone and wording. 【2】Instead, your choice of words should make the reader feel that he or she would do the same thing if they were in your place.

Keep it clear and simple

【3】. Nobody likes to read a long, winding rejection letter. Therefore, it is better to deliver the message of rejection in the beginning itself. Clearly state that you have decided to reject the request or application. Don’t beat about the bush and don’t try to give the impression that your decision could change.【4】. Explain why your decision is good for everyone.

【5】

Conclude with a statement of goodwill(友好). You may have rejected this application, but if you intend to consider this person for another job in the future, you may express that as well. However, that isn’t always necessary. In some situations such endings might offend(冒犯) the reader.

A. End on a positive note

B. Make your decision as soon as possible

C. Never give away what you are going to do

D. Briefly state how you came to your decision

E. A rejection letter doesn’t have to be necessarily long

F. Don’t write anything that may make the reader feel bad

G. Although writing a rejection letter can be difficult, there are situations when it’s absolutely necessary.

【題目】When many people think about planting a tree, they do not realize that there are several things that they need to consider. You can’t simply just dig a single hole, throw the tree into that space, and expect it to grow without any disease. 【1】

The first thing that you need to take into account is the time of year that you are looking to plant the tree in. Believe it or not, in order to plant a tree that will stay alive and be able to survive, you have to plant it at the time of year that is right for the tree. 【2】 The burning sun during these periods of time will cause a big amount of stress of the tree, which will then lead to its death. 【3】

【4】 You should choose a suitable region and climate for the tree. If you decide to plant a tree that is not a native of a particular climate, you need to consider different factors about the tree such as the growth habits of the tree and how much tolerance the tree has to different weather conditions.

【5】 Sometimes in cases where people will be digging deep holes to plant a tree, they need to make sure that they are not digging around the phone lines that may be buried below the surface. Among other things, the hole determines if the tree can survive.

A. Normally you should never plant a tree in late spring or summer.

B. When digging a hole for a tree, you’d better dig as deep as possible.

C. You should then look at the place where you plan to plant the tree in.

D. The best time to consider planting your tree is around autumn or early spring.

E. The tree will not only be planted but will continue to grow well for years to come.

F. The next thing that you need to know is whether there are requirements where you’ll dig.

G. There are a few basic things that you need to do in order to make sure the tree grows healthily.
