[語(yǔ)篇解讀]對(duì)于郵局來(lái)講，投遞所有信件有時(shí)是不可能的。部分信 件地址含糊不清，又沒(méi)有寫(xiě)上寄件人地址，于是這些沒(méi)有送出去的郵 件就變成了“無(wú)效郵件”。工作人員會(huì)通過(guò)一系列方法來(lái)處理這些 “無(wú)效郵件”。

1C從上文中impossible to deliver可知，郵件不可能投遞的原因是地 址不清楚。impatient不耐煩的;unimportant不重要的;inactive不活 躍的;unclear不清楚的，符合題意。故選C項(xiàng)。

2. D信件屬于隱私，根據(jù)有關(guān)規(guī)定，即便是地址不清晰，郵局也不能 把郵件扔掉。turn off關(guān)掉;eat up吃光;sell out賣光;throw away扔 掉，符合題意。故選D項(xiàng)。

3. A在美國(guó)，“無(wú)效郵件”被送到亞特蘭大、紐約或者舊金山的其中一 個(gè)郵政處，而不是返回原來(lái)的寄件人手中，故不能用returned ,選 A項(xiàng)。

4. B根據(jù)下文First of all及其后的敘述可知，“無(wú)效郵件”辦公室的工 作人員處理這些郵件的方法有很多。various各種各樣的，符合題 意。故選B項(xiàng)。

5. C想要把“無(wú)效郵件”投遞出去，他們需要尋找能夠幫助他們投遞 郵件的線索。下文中他們打開(kāi)包裝也是發(fā)現(xiàn)線索的方式之一。故 選C項(xiàng)。

6. B外包裝看不到任何線索，只好打開(kāi)郵件，理所當(dāng)然看到的是郵件 里面的東西。故選B項(xiàng)。

7. D郵政處的工作人員會(huì)把“無(wú)效郵件”在網(wǎng)上公布，以便使更多的 人看到屏幕上公布的郵件是不是他們的，然后郵件的主人可以通過(guò) 打電話査詢。故選D項(xiàng)。

8. A根據(jù)下文一些郵件被拍賣了，可知“無(wú)效郵件”不可能被永遠(yuǎn)儲(chǔ) 存。故選A項(xiàng)。

9. B根據(jù)句意可知，一些對(duì)“無(wú)效郵件”里的物品感興趣的人，才會(huì)被 邀請(qǐng)過(guò)來(lái)出價(jià)。interested感興趣的，故選B項(xiàng)。

10. C根據(jù)拍賣常識(shí)可知，最后的物品都是賣給出價(jià)最高者。故選 C項(xiàng)。

[長(zhǎng)難句] Every three months,some people who are interested are invited to the offices with objects found in dead mail packages and they are sold tothe highest bidder (出價(jià)者) .每三個(gè)月，一些感興趣的人會(huì)被邀請(qǐng)到郵 政處，競(jìng)拍一些在“無(wú)效郵件”包裝中發(fā)現(xiàn)的物品，這些物品會(huì)賣給出價(jià)最高者。句中 who are interested 作定語(yǔ)修飾 people,found in dead mail packages 作后置定語(yǔ)修飾 objects,they are sold to the highest bidder 中的 they 指代前面的objects。

    根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容回答問(wèn)題。

    Chris is not a traditional explorer —he usually works in an office for a large organization. Yet his job can sometimes be just as exciting and dangerous as being an explorer.

    Chris works for MSF,an organization also known as Doctors Without fiorcfers (無(wú)國(guó)界醫(yī)生) .MSF sends trained doctors all over the world to help people after a war or a disaster. Chris is a doctor from France who has travelled to many places to organize programmes that help people.

    At the moment,there are over 27 ,000 trained medical staff taking part in MSF projects and tasks. Fhe organization received the Nobel Peace Prize in 1999. All kinds of doctors can volunteer for MSF. They need to be prepared to go almost anywhere in the world and,of course,they should expect difficult conditions. Doctors with experience in (熱市’白勺) diseases are especially useful because most of MSF^ work is in Africa. When MSF accepts a doctor for a task,he has to go for at least six months. When doctors have completed a few tasks,they might be sent on an emergency task following a disaster,such as an earthquake.

    But why would a doctor leave a comfortable life and a good salary to join MSF? According to Chris,the experience you gain is a great help in your career.Besides,just like the explorers of the past,you need to keep an open mind and learn to mix well with the people you meet.Most importantly,at the end of each task,you have made a real difference to people's lives.

  1. Does Chris work for a large organization?

        

2. When does MSF send trained doctors all over the world to help people?

   

3. How many medical staff are taking pari in MSF projects and tasks?
