August 13th, 2014 Dear Sirs, I am very happy to apply for the position of secretary, which you advertised in China Daily of August 11, 2014. I have been working as a secretary at a college office. Because I am the only secretary in the office, it is necessary for me to work quickly and efficiently and to be flexible in my daily work. Professors value my work and my ability to meet their needs. Although I am happy now, I feel that my promotion (晋升) is limited here, and I would like to have a more challenging job. Therefore, I enrolled (参加) in a program to expand my knowledge of international business affairs. Now, both my English and Chinese have been improved and I am ready to begin working as a bilingual secretary in an international company like yours, and I believe I can be a great help to your firm. The enclosed resume gives further details of my qualifications, and I would appreciate it if you could give me an opportunity to have an interview. I am looking forward to receiving your call at 62428866 or please use the enclosed pre-paid postcard to send me your reply. Thank you very much for your consideration. Faithfully Yours, Mary Lee
单选题
The writer wants to change her job because______.
【正确答案】
B
【答案解析】解析：事实细节题。题目询问“作者想要换工作的原因是什么。”从文章的第三段第一句话，Although I am happy now，I feel that my promotion(晋升)is limited here．可知在原来的单位工作，作者没有多大的晋升机会。所以想换一个有挑战性的工作，所以正确的答案为B。
单选题
A bilingual secretary (Line 4, Paragraph 3) differs from other secretaries in that he or she can______.
【正确答案】
C
【答案解析】解析：词语释义题。题目询问“在第三段第四行的‘a bilingual secretary’不同于别的秘书，在于这种秘书能怎样”。从文章的第三段第三句话…．both my English and Chinese have been improved．．．可知，a bilingual secretary能通晓两种语言，这就是不同于一般秘书的地方。同时，本题考查考生对词语意思的猜测能力。如果知道“bilingual”的意思是“双语的、能说两种语言的”，这道题就容易多了。所以正确的答案为C。
单选题
By sending this letter, the writer expected to______.
【正确答案】
B
【答案解析】解析：推理判断题。题目询问“写这封信，作者的目的是什么?”从文章的最后一段的第一句话I would appreciate it if you could give me an opportunity to have an interview．可知，作者想要一次面试的机会。从常识来看，写求职信的目的就是希望能得到一次面试的机会，所以本题的正确的答案为B。
