You may have done something wrong, but now you're willing to make things right. 1. If you want to make sure that your apology is effective and doesn’t cause even more hurt, follow the advice below to write a fantastic apology.

State what your letter is about. It’s a good idea to begin by letting them know that this letter is an apology. If you don’t want them to be confused about why you’re writing or what you’re going to say, say something like: “2.”.

State your mistake. Now that you’re apologizing, say what you’re apologizing for and why it was incorrect. 3.. By fully putting it out there in the open, the person that you’re apologizing to will know that you do really understand what you did.

4. This is one of the most important parts of an apology but can be the hardest to say. What you do need to do is admit your responsibility for your mistake openly and without reservation(保留). You might have had good reasons for doing what you did but that shouldn’t keep you from saying that your actions caused someone to get hurt.

Offer a solution that will lead to change. Just saying that you’re sorry isn’t really enough. What really gives an apology some power is finding a way to solve the problem in the future. 5.. When you offer a plan for change and how you’re going to go about it, this shows the person that you’re really serious about making the situation better.

A. I’m sorry if your feelings got hurt.

B. I want to write you a letter to apologize.

C. Accept responsibility.

D. Be very exact and descriptive.

E. An apology letter is a great way to start making amends(修補(bǔ))for a mistake.

F. It is never too late to make an apology.

G. This is better, even, than just saying that it will never happen again.

When I was in college, I spent a semester studying abroad at the University of Strathclyde in Glasgow, Scotland. In my brief time there, I came to love Scotland for its local culture, food and scenery.

You might think, “Scotland isn’t so different from the US; they still speak English there!” But when I stepped off the plane, I was greeted by a gruff-voiced(聲音粗啞的) lady at customs. “You’ll be coming from America, then?” She asked me, and I nodded. “But all of our guys are leaving Glasgow for the States!” Her thick Scottish English and sense of humor were obvious right away. I was not in the US any more, where customs agents never joke around.

As I settled in at the university, I could feel myself getting used to hearing—and even speaking—the Scottish English of my customs agent. In classroom discussions, people would say “em” when they couldn’t think of what to say instead of “um”, which was great fun. After the first few weeks, I stopped chuckling about this. Strathclyde students stayed up late into the night, running around campus and shouting, “Go! Let’s go, let’s go, let’s go [curse word] Glasgow!” Pretty soon, I was no longer saying “thanks” at the supermarket—instead, I said “cheers”.

My Scottish friends drank whiskey and ate haggis(羊雜碎布丁). I drank plenty of whiskey but felt ashamed to admit that I wasn't brave enough to try haggis. Scottish bakeries usually sell bridies (肉餡餅). Add a cup of tea—though I usually Americanized it by choosing coffee instead—and a bridie makes for a delicious breakfast.

Every time I took a train anywhere in Scotland, I’d gaze out at the rolling hills and wonder if grass was greener than anywhere else in the world. Then I’d reflect that there’s a reason this country was the birthplace of golf.

1.What did the author think of the lady at customs?

A. Impolite. B. Friendly.

C. Serious. D. Calm.

2.Which of the following can replace the underlined word “chuckling” in Paragraph 3?

A. Talking loudly. B. Comparing.

C. Laughing quietly. D. Hearing.

3.What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?

A. To explain why Scotland was famous for golf.

B. To promote the development of Scottish catering trade.

C. To introduce different pronunciations of “em”and “um”.

D. To share his experiences in Scotland as an exchange student.

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：河北省石家莊市2017屆高三5月聯(lián)考英語(yǔ)試卷 題型：閱讀理解

China’s boss of table tennis Liu Guoliang was shocked at his first sight of Japanese teenager Miu Hirano who beat three top-ranked Chinese to claim a sensational victory of the women’s singles at the Asian Table Tennis Championships.

"She’s much better than I had imagined," said Liu, on the conclusion of the continental tournament（錦標(biāo)賽）. "When she came out the winner of last year's World Cup, I thought maybe she took advantage of the absence of the Chinese women paddlers. However, I changed my mind when I saw her play here. She’s strong enough technically and mentally, and capable of beating any one in the world," added Liu.

Hirano, who just turned 17 years old on Friday, stunned China's world No. 1 Ding Ning 3-2 in the quarterfinals before second-ranked Zhu Yuling 3-0 and finally seeing off world No. 5 Chen Meng, also 3-0, to smash the Chinese dominance（統(tǒng)治）of the tournament.

"She's so young and has so many possibilities in the future," said Liu. "That makes her success more intimidating to our women's team."

In Liu's opinion, the difficulties that China faced in these Asian championships reflected the changes of table tennis world map in recent years.

"It's not just recently that Japan wants to beat China," he said. "By the end of the day, their efforts finally worked out."

The head coach, however, refused to stand all by the Japan's side. "We do need to learn from the other associations, including the Japanese, who do an excellent job on youth training," Liu said. "But one failure should not lead to the whole denial to our own team. I think it's a good thing to have competitors who can pose real challenges, which makes our sport more competitive and more healthy," he added.

1.What’s the meaning of the underlined word “intimidating” in paragraph 4?

A. possible B. certain

C. threatening D. impossible

2.Why could Miu Hirano win the last year’s World Cup?

A. Because Miu made use of the absence of the Chinese women paddlers.

B. Because Chinese women paddlers were weak.

C. Because Miu was capable of winning the game.

D. Because Liu Gouliang wanted her to win the game.

3.Which statement is NOT true according to the passage?

A. Zhu Yuling is the second-ranked in the world of table—tennis.

B. Miu Hirano was defeated by Ding Ning in the quarterfinals of the Asia Table Tennis Championships.

C. China’s female paddlers face the great challenge.

D. Female table-tennis world map has changed in recent years.

4.The passage most likely comes from______.

A. a news report B. a fashion magazine

C. a biography D. a science fiction
