The seven Cs of a good letter

What is the secret of writing a good letter? Here are two main ones. Don’t try to be fancy. Don’t try to impress your reader. You will be successful if you follow these seven Cs.

Clear. Use short, direct sentences.      Talk as if the reader were right there with you .Above all, don’t use an introduction.

Correct.      Don’t guess, even for spelling. Refer to your dictionary. If you need to , check a reference book too. Use them as much as you need to.

Complete. Don’t scatter our points.      This is good organization too.

Courteous. Be friendly rather than overly casual. Present your information nicely even if you are complaining about something . In all letters, treat others as you want them to treat you.

Concise. Make each point as clearly and briefly as you can.

Conversational. This is really the secret of good writing.       Such a letter has a natural, friendly tone. Let your personality come through naturally.

Considerate.       Write about what you believe the reader needs or wants to know. Try to be helpful. This will build good feeling toward you.

The seven Cs are about writing letters. But how about school papers? Use the seven Cs. Write as if you are talking to your teacher or professor. You’ll be surprised. You’ll almost instantly become a good writer. And you might even enjoy writing from now on.

Just “talk” to the person

Think of the readers’ point of view as you write.

Make them easy to understand

Include long sentences in your letter

Make sure what you say is correct

Writing should not be taken too seriously

Finish one point completely before going on to the next.

Almost every day we come across situations in which we have to make decisions one way or another. Choice, we are given to believe, is a right. But for a good many people in the world in rich and poor countries, choice is a luxury, something wonderful but hard to get, not a right. And for those who think they are exercising their right to make choices, the whole system is merely an illusion, a false idea created by companies and advertiser, hoping to sell their products.

The endless choice gives birth to anxiety in people’s lives. Buying something as basic as a coffee pot is not exactly simple. Easy access to a wide range of everyday goods leads to a sense of powerlessness in many people, ending in the shopper giving up and walking away, or just buying an unsuitable item(商品) that is not really wanted. Recent studies in England have shown that many electrical goods bought in almost every family are not really needed. More difficult decision-making is then either avoided or trusted into the hands of the professionals, lifestyle instructors, or advisors.

It is not just the availability of the goods that is the problem, but the speed with which new types of products come on the market. Advances in design and production help quicken the process. Products also need to have a short lifespan so that the public can be persuaded to replace them within a short time. The typical example is computers, which are almost out-of-date once they are bought. This indeed makes selection a problem. Gone are the days when one could just walk with ease into a shop and buy one thing; no choice, no anxiety.

What does the author try to argue in Paragraph 1?

A. The exercise of rights is a luxury.

B. The practice of choice is difficult.

C. The right of choice is given but at a price.

D. Choice and right exist at the same time.

Why do more choices of goods give rise to anxiety?

A. Professionals find it hard to decide on a suitable product.

B. People are likely to find themselves overcome by business persuasion.

C. Shoppers may find themselves lost in the broad range of items.

D. Companies and advertisers are often misleading about the rage of choice.

By using computers as an example, the author wants to prove that _______.

A. advanced products meet the needs of people

B. products of the latest design flood the market

C. competitions are fierce in high-tech industry

D. everyday goods need to be replaced often

What is this passage mainly about?

A. The variety of choices in modern society.

B. The opinions on people’s right in different countries

C. The Problems about the availability of everyday goods.

D. The helplessness in purchasing decisions

任務型讀寫（共10小題；每小題1分，滿分10分） 注意：一空一詞。

       Many students eat their breakfasts on the way to school or in the dinning-room．But some of them don’t really know how to eat well when eating out．

       Here is some important advice．The first is to eat less fast food．The most obvious harm of eating too much fast food is weight gaining because of too much fat．Young people and adults are at risk of disease related to weight．

       Too much fast food can drag your body down．French fries, for example, were recently found to contain much more acrylamide（丙烯酰胺） than other food．This may cause cancer．Actually, deep fried food all contains acrylamide．So don’t eat it too often．

       Soda is another thing you should watch out for．Cokes and other sodas contain a lot of sugar and can slow down a person’s calcium absorption, so it’s best to drink as little soda as possible．

       Food in the dinning-room may not be as tasty as fast food, but it’s actually easier to make healthy choices．Human bodies need variety．You can have a dinner that balances lean proteins, vitamins and complex carbohydrates（碳水化合物）．In other words, a meal with fish or meat, vegetables and some bread or rice will provide you with most nutrients that the body needs．

       Some snacks, on the other hand, will help keep you going until your next big meal．It is natural for teenagers, especially boys, to feel hungry during school time．Don’t forget to take some foods, like whole-grain biscuits or low-fat milk in your school bag．

It had been a long time since I had been to Jacksonville, Florida. I had driven to town hoping to see the old barber shop where my hair had been cut as a child.     

I parked my truck and decided to try and locate a telephone to see if the Florida Barber College had moved to a new location.   

After walking about a block I saw an open shoe store. I walked inside and asked if I could use their telephone book. Unable to find a listing for the Barber College, I picked out the number of a local beauty salon, hoping they might tell me if the barber college was still in business. The number was busy, so I decided to wait and try again in a few minutes.

As the salesman and I stood talking the front door opened and a young man about twenty came into the store pushing himself in a wheelchair. “I need a new pair of shoes,” said the customer. As he turned the corner, there was a blanket across his lap. I was shocked to see that the young man had no legs.

“A gift for a friend?” I asked the boy. “No,” he replied. They are for me,” he continued, with a smile on his face. I just smiled back and watched to see what would happen next.

“What type of shoe would you like?” asked the clerk. “How about a pair of cowboy boots?” The man pointed to the back wall where three or four pairs of boots were displayed. The salesman, sharply turning, headed off to the backroom.

“Isn’t this fun?” the boy asked me. I moved my hand to let him know that I did not understand his question. “When I was a kid, my parents used to buy me a new pair of shoes every year. That was such a wonderful feeling. Something I have never forgotten. The smell of the leather and the pride I felt when I walked around the store showing off my new shoes.”

The salesman came walking down the aisle with a large box. He sat it down on the floor, took out one boot and handed it to the young man. The boy closed his eyes. He placed the boot against his nose, and drew in a large breath. I did not know what to say as tears began to fall on the young man’s cheeks. “What type of accident did you have?” I asked him. “Farm accident,” he said, as he tried to clear his voice.

“Do you want the cowboy boots?” the salesman asked him. 

“Oh, yes!” he answered.

“I see buying a new pair of shoes still gives you that good feeling you talked about,” I told the young man, as I smiled. 

“Yes it does.” he said “And I may have someone, and his feet to share it with some day.” 

67. Why did the young man want to buy a new pair of shoes?

A. Because he bought a pair every year.

B. Because he wanted to send a new pair to a friend.

C. Because he hoped to keep it for memory.

D. Because he enjoyed the feeling of possessing a new pair.

68. The author writes about the barber shop at the beginning of the article in order to _______.

A. introduce the background of the story

   B. see if the Barber College had moved to a new location

   C. find a listing for the Barber College

   D. pick out a local beauty salon

69. How did the author feel when he saw a young man without legs buying a pair of shoes?

A. Unexpected.     B. Proud.    C. Sympathetic.    D. Superior.

70. What can you conclude from the passage?

A. The young man was a stubborn person.

B. The author was a man of understanding.

C. The cowboy boots were fashionable then.

D. The disabled envied much those healthy.
