单选题 What is the main purpose of the letter?
【正确答案】 C
【答案解析】解析:本题是针对写信的目的进行提问的主旨题,应特别注意原文前半部分的内容。信件开头提到“I am sorry to inform you that your application for the position…was turned down.”,即遗憾地通知收信人其申请被拒绝了,之后又说“However,I plan to submit your application to another company…”,即计划将收信人的申请提交到其他公司,由此可知写信的目的是商讨客户的申请状况。因此(C)To discuss a client’s application status为正确答案。
单选题 What does Mr. Tang say he will do?
【正确答案】 B
【答案解析】解析:本题是问唐先生说他将会做什么(What),因此应定位至原文中提及题目的核心语句Mr.Tang…will do部分的相关内容。信中提到“…I will go ahead and forward…your resume and reference letters.”,即唐先生将会转寄尼赫鲁先生的简历和推荐信,因此(B)Send some documentation是正确答案。
单选题 Who most likely is Ms. Dara?
【正确答案】 A
【答案解析】解析:本题为关于核心词Ms.Dara的推断题。文中提到“If you are interested in pursuing the application,I would urge you to phone Chynna Dara in our Indian branch…”,即如果想要继续申请,则推荐收信人联系印度分公司的齐娜·达拉。由此可以推知达拉女士是在Foremost公司的印度分公司的职业介绍所工作的招聘代理人。因此(A)An employment agent是正确答案。
