    话说当年解放军开进了高家庄,高家庄的大地主高秉可真是忙了一阵子,每天好酒好菜款待解放军的领导。对解放军战士的态度变了不说,对长工的态度也大变脸。规定了长工的最新上班时间:由原来的鸡叫头遍上工改为鸡叫三遍上工。每人每年还许诺工资待遇提高半斗米。又和长工签订了用工合同,且双方按了手印。像模像样地跟着解放军进行了地主改造。

    长工们可真是高兴坏了,这下好了,终于有解放军来救我们了。长工们很是欢呼雀跃了一阵子。大家真的看到了希望,以为自己的命运从此改变了。终于看到地主高秉对长工也露出了难得的笑脸。

    但是解放军同志还有重要的任务,要离开高家庄了,大家真是难分难舍。高秉也道出“解放军给了俺重新做人的机会”这样的大忏悔。

    解放军走后第三天,高秉就下达了命令:咱们长工的工作时间和工资待遇恢复到以前的情况。长工一片惊愕,高秉你真做得出来,可是解放军走了,没人给长工们撑腰了,大家只能是敢怒而不敢言。

   “他奶奶的,什么世道,连河南省搞的规范办学也只是走走过场。咱们长工还想怎样。”半夜里,不知道哪个长工说出这样的梦话。

The 400 phone messages said it all. Veterans wanted to talk, and Jeff Beers, a military history buff and the son of retired Navy man, was ready to listen. Beers had volunteered for the Veterans History Project, a program at the Library of Congress dedicated to preserving the oral histories of American's 19 million veterans. Local newspapers listed Beers' number, and the response was tremendous. He's videotaped 52 vets ever since.

"Most of them are shocked that anyone would be interested in their small story," says Beers, 33, an assistant engineer for the city of Poway, Calif, "They ask, Why now? But it has to be now, before it's too late." The U. S. Department of Veterans Affairs estimates that 1847 veterans die each day.

Beers and the other volunteers are collecting the I-was-there detail. One of the most moving came from a World War II POW (prisoner of war):" He had to march 500 miles through the Black Forest in winter. They ate bark soup and slept at local farm."

The WW II generation comprises most of the 700 histories gathered since the program began in 2001. But, says director Ellen Lovell, they want to hear from vets of every war. "I interviewed my brother-in-law, an army surgeon in Vietnam," she says."He said he shared things with me that he's never told anyone."

Sample Four

Directions:

You are going to read a list of headings and a text about how to select a fund. Choose the most suitable heading from the list A-F for each numbered paragraph(41-45). The first and the last paragraphs of the text are not numbered. There is one extra heading which you do not need to use. Mark your answers on Answer sheet 1.(10 points)

A) Watching related expenses and making wise choice

B) Paying attention to details

C) Weighing your financial goals and expectations first

D) Maintaining realistic expectations

E) Narrowing the search

F) Not too special

   Eating better. Exercising. Investing. There are a lot of things you know should be doing. The problem is that getting started always seems to be the hardest part. For many investors,mutual funds are a good way to go, but trying to sort through the number of available choises-now more than 10000-makes this important task appear overwhelming. Let's look at some ways to cut that number down to a reasonable size, as well as other factors to consider when selecting your first fund.

41._____

   Before you begin examining potential investments, it's important to take some time to assess your own goals and risk tolerance. If you start with a clear objective in mind, as well as an understanding as to how you might react if your investment loses money, you'll be less likely to purchase a fund that doesn't fit your needs. And that's what often leads to disappointment. It is important to look for funds that are appropriate for both your goals and your investment temperament.

42._____

   One way to begin your search for a good fund is to use the Morningstar star rating. The rating is a useful tool for narrowing the field to funds that have done a good job of balancing return and risk in the past. To assign ratings, Morningstar uses a formula that compares a fund's risk-adjusted historical performance with that of other funds within four rating groups-domestic stock funds, international stock funds, taxable bond funds, and municipal bond funds.

43._____

  funds that invest solely in a single market sectors, called specialty funds, often have impressive returns and may be great additions to a diversified portfolio. However, the success of such funds depends largely on the fortunes of a particular market sector. Hence, specialty funds probably aren't the best way to start. For your first fund, look for a diversified stock fund that has exposure to different types of stocks.

44._____

  There's no free lunch in fund investing: in addition to the sales fees that some fund companies charge, fund investors must also pay management fees and trading costs. Unfortunately, you don't necessarily get what you pay for- no one has ever shown that more expensive funds provide greater returns. Look for funds with reasonable costs. The expense ratio, which expresses annual costs as a percentage amount, is probably the best number to use when comparing mutual fund costs.

45._____

  Whatever the market does, try to take it in stride. You're in for the long haul, so don't worry about the market's day-to-day gyrations. Relax and resist the temptation to monitor your first investment daily. Check in on your mutual funds once a month, and give yur portfolio a thorough exam every 6 to 12 months. And consider adding to your fund each month. An automatic investment plan makes it a relatively painless process.

   Finally, remember that the ultimate measure of your success as an investor depends not on your owning the best-performing mutual fund. Only one fund will be the top performer over the next decade, and there's no way to predict which one it will be. Meeting your own financial goals should ultimately be the yardstick by which you measure your investment success.

Sample Three

Directions:

You are going to read a text about the tips on resume writing, follower by a list of examples. Choose the best example from the list A-F for each numbered subheading(41-45). There is one extra example which you do not need to use. Mark your answers on Answer sheet 1.(10 points)

The main purpose of a resume is to convince an employer to grant you an interview. There are two kinds. One is the familiar "tombstone" that lists where you went to school and where you've worked in chronological order, unique to you and much more likely to land you an interview.

It's handy to have a "tombstone" for certain occasions. But prospective employers throw throw away most of those un-requested "tombstone" lists, preferring to interview the quick rather than the dead.

What follows are tips on writing a functional resume that will get read a resume that makes you come alive and look interesting to employers.

41) Put yourself first:

In order to write a resume others will read with enthusiasm, you have to feel important about yourself.

42) Sell what you can do, not who you are:

Practice translating your personality traits, character, accomplishments and achievements into akill areas. There are at least five thousand skill areas in the world of work.

Toot your own horn!

Many people clutch when asked to think about their abilities. Some think they have none at all! But everyone does, and one of yours may just be the ticket an employer would be glad to punch-if only you show it.

43) Be specific, be concrete, and be brief!

Remember that "brevity is the best policy."

44) Turn bad news into good:

Everybody has had disappointments in work. If you have to mention yours, look for the positive side.

45) Never apologize:

If you're returning to the work force after fifteen years as a parent, simply write a short paragraph (summary of background) in place of a chronology of experience. Don't apologize for working at being a mother; it's the hardest job of all. If you have no special training or higher education, just don't mention education.

The secret is to think about the self before you start writing about yourself. Take four or five hours off, not necessarily consecutive, and simply write down every accomplishment in your life, on or off the job, that made you feel effective. Don't worry at first about what it all means. Study the list and try to spot patterns. As you study your list, you will come closer to the meaning: identifying your marketable skills. Once you discover patterns, give names to your cluster of accomplishments (leadership skills, budget management skills, child development skills etc.). Try to list at least three accomplishments under the same skills heading. Now start writing your resume as if you mattered. It may take four drafts or more, and several weeks, before you're ready to show it to a stranger (friends are usually too kind) for a reaction. When you're satisfied, send it to a printer; a printed resume is far superior to photocopies. It shows an employer that you regard job hunting as serious work, worth doing right. 

Isn't that the kind of person you'd want working for you?

A) A woman who lost her job as a teacher's aide due to a cutback in government funding wrote: "Principal of elementary school cited me as the only teacher's aide she would rehire if government funds  became available."

B) One resume I received included the following: "Invited by my superior to straighten out our organization's accounts receivable. Set up orderly repayment schedule, reconciled accounts weekly, and imporoved cash flow 100 percent. Rewarded with raise and promotion." Notice how this woman focuses on results, specifies how she accomplished them, and mentions her reward-all in 34 words.

C) For example, if you have a flair for saving, managing and investing money, you have money management skills.

D) An acquaintance complained of being biased when losing an opportunity due to the statemen "Ready to learn though not so well educated".

E) One of my former colleagues, for example, wrote three resumes in three different styles in order to find out which was more preferred. The result is, of course, the one that highlights skills and eduction background.

F) A woman once told me about a cash-flow crisis her employer had faced. She'd agreed to work without pay for three months until business improved. Her reward was her back pay plus a 20 percent bonus. I asked why that marvelous story wasn't in her resume. She answered, "It wasn't important." What she was really saying of course was "I'm not important."
