“Oh yes,” said I ----  57  having cooked for more than four in my life.I  58  her again and again, and rushed out to the  59  telephone box.I collected my thoughts, took a deep breath, and rang the number.I said confidently that I was just what she was looking for.

下面是五位讀者寫給某一報社編輯征求建議的信。閱讀第61至65題中的來信和A至F的回信,選出符合來信的最佳選項,并在答題紙上將該選項標(biāo)號涂黑。選項中有一項是多余選項。

61.        .

Dear editor,

I am a junior at university majoring(讀……專業(yè))in law I’m interested in administrative law and plan to study it during my postgraduate years. But my dream is to be a great reporter. My question is : is it possible for me to be a reporter if I major in administrative law? I’m worried about my future. Please help me.

62.        .

Dear editor,

I am a university junior in public administration. I like English very much and I once tried unsuccessfully to change my major to English. So I decided to take the postgraduate exam and learn more English in graduate school. But since my first degree isn’t in English, it’s unlikely that I’ll be enrolled as an English major. Are there any non English majors that also offer English training so that I can master the language after graduation and find a good job?

63.        .

Dear editor,

    I was born in a remote country area in northwest China and had to give up school because of poverty, leaving my compulsory education unfinished. Afterwards, I helped my parents with farm work for four years. Then I left home and have worked as a waitress for one year in Xi’an, Shanxi Province. I am now 20, young and determined. This life as a waitress earning less than 500 yuan a month can really ruin my youth. Could you give me some advice for my future.

64.        .

Dear editor,

    I’m a freshman majoring in Japanese. I also have a great love for English and my English level is fairly good. But now I’m worried that if I take a job as a Japanese interpreter or translator in the future, I’ll lose touch with English. Is there a job that can combine both my major and my interest?

65.        .

Dear editor,

I’m in a situation that makes me very confused. I got two job offers at the same time. One is a small, private company doing foreign trade, which I’m interested in. The other is large, famous company. However, the job isn’t so related to foreign trade. Furthermore, the second company is far away from my family and friends. I have to make a choice right now. I need your help.

A.Editor writes:

It all depends on what you value most in your work. If you think your interests are the most important, choose the first company. If you value a big company’s working experience, then go with that one. Of course, you need to consider other factors, like compensation, commute time, on the job training, and family and friends.

B.Editor writes:

I have been working in media for over five years and have met lost of reporters. Actually, very few of them major in journalism. They have various educational backgrounds, including international politics, philosophy, law, even computer science. Writing a good news story is difficult. Reporters have to have a clear understanding of the issues they’re working on. Their job often requires some expertise in certain fields. So, if you’re going to be a journalist in the future, your knowledge in administrative law will surely be a plus not a disadvantage.

C.Editor writes:

Getting into an internship(實習(xí))could be very competitive, and you’ll need to use all the sources to maximize your chances of getting in. Not only teachers, but family, friends and students a few grades above you may also be sources of information. Try them all. Actually, I think most professionals don’t like being interrupted by students asking about internships all the time. So try to locate human resources people and their e mail address and send your resume that way, instead of trying to locate them through a phone call.

D.Editor writes:

Don’t worry. And good English skills you have won’t be wasted in future. You could be a trilingual translator, which surely makes you more competitive than those who have only mastered one language. You could also find a position in a Japanese company that needs you to communicate with European or American customers. The globalized world needs more trilingual or even multilingual experts.

E.Editor writes:

You’re young and aspiring, I think you surely deserve a better life. People say education can change one’s fate. Have you ever thought about continuing your study? When I was reading your letter, I was impressed by your good English. You must be intelligent and talented. You could start learning by yourself from some high school or even primary school textbooks It might take a couple of years, but I’m sure you can eventually enter a university if you work hard. You could apple for grants(助學(xué)金)to cover your tuition and living costs. I believe your life will be back on track after you strengthen your overall abilities through higher education.

F.Editor writes:

Yes, some schools, most related to business studies, provide some English training,

For example, at University of International Business and Economics in Beijing, many postgraduate courses are taught in English and use English textbooks. Such courses include international trade and LLM(Master of Law). You can visit some university’s websites for course details.
