Part I Writing
Dear Hugh,
How is everything going with you? In your last email, you told me that you want to teach English in China. I am writing to you to recommend a job-hunting website, www.goodteachers.com, so as for you to obtain a teaching position.
The aforementioned website is very popular among foreign individuals who want to find a good job, and of course among employers. It’s a website which is displayed in both English and Chinese, so there’s no need to worry about the language barrier. Besides, it is quite easy for you to register as a member of the website as long as you have an email account. Another feature of the website is that it’s got an online forum for prospective job applicants, through which you can get useful information about the necessary procedures of getting a job, or make friends with those job applicants who come from the UK.
I wish you good luck in getting a satisfying job soon. I’m looking forward to meeting here in China. Please don’t hesitate to write to me if need be.
Yours,
Li Hua
Part II Listening Comprehension
Section A
Directions: In this section, you will hear three news reports. At the end of each news report, you will hear two or three questions. Both the news report and the questions will be spoken only once. After you hear a question, you must choose the best answer from the four choices marked A), B), C) and D). Then mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 1 with a single line through the centre.
Questions 1 and 2 will be based on the following news item.
A special school dance for fathers and daughters was going to be held. But one 8-year-old girl Avey Cox in northwest Arkansas had no date until a hero stepped in. Avey Cox’s father died in January. “I’ve been wanting to go for a long time, but my dad couldn’t take me,” Cox explained.
She told her mother about the special school event, but her mom couldn’t help in that either. Nick Harvey, a kind police officer, happened to hear her story. And one day, he approached the little girl and said: “Would you like to be my date for the daddy-daughter dance?” Without hesitation, the girl agreed. But later, he admitted he was very nervous. “I did not want to be rejected by a second-grader,” Harvey said.
