Letter 1

January 28, 2018 | 3:31pm

I work for an e-commerce Website. If one of our merchandisers has a question or wants to make a correction, they e-mail the entire department. In my opinion, this is rude and unnecessary. It seems to me that mass e-mail is appropriate for good or neutral news, rather than making a correction. Do you agree? Moreover, if you were the recipient of the correction, how would you respond?

The only people who should be included in an e-mail are those who need to know or respond. Including everyone is rude and unprofessional as well as annoying to recipients. It’s not like we don’t have enough in our inbox already. I don’t agree that e-mail is only for good or neutral news, however. Sometimes you need to alert people or create a record of bad news. But no one should use e-mail to blame other people. If you’ve got a problem with someone, pick up the phone or take it outside (for a coffee, not a fist fight…geez). As for how to respond, e-mail is usually ineffective for resolving conflict. Have a conversation with the sender and explain why his or her approach isn’t the best and what you recommend.

Letter 2

It’s the start of a new year and I believe it’s time for a change. What’s the best way to explain to a prospective employer that you are in need of something new without seeming flighty and without complaining about your current employer?

The new year is as good a time as any to take stock, but not the only reason for making a change. At least, that’s not what you communicate to a prospective employer. Your reason for looking for a new job is less important to your new employer than why you want to work there. Needing a change might be the catalyst(催化劑), but the job search is like dating, and you wouldn’t ask someone out and explain you’re just bored in your current relationship, right? At least I hope not, otherwise you’re likely to be as lonely as Barry Manilow sounds when he sings “It’s Just Another New Year’s Eve”.

【1】What is discussed in the first letter?

A.How to ask questions in a polite way.B.How to respond to a false charge.

C.How to make a correction at work.D.How to handle rude mass emails at work.

【2】According to Greg, expressing your dissatisfaction with your present job in an interview would be the same as __________.

A.talking about your family issues in public

B.complaining about your prior partner on a first date

C.demonstrating your qualifications to your new boss

D.bragging about your experience to your partner

【3】It can be inferred that “go to greg” mainly offers advice on people’s __________.

A.career choicesB.social relationships

C.working problemsD.health problems

Loyal and affectionate, a dog companion can enrich its owner’s life in many ways, 1_____ Many teenagers suffer from periods of low self-esteem (自尊) as they try to navigate the wavy waters of adolescence and deal with all of its associated highs and lows.A teenager who lacks self-esteem may feel isolated from his peers and unable to tell his parents about personal issues. The company of a dog can be a huge comfort and ease feelings of loneliness and awkwardness. A dog offers genuine unconditional love. 2_____All dogs need exercise，so taking his clog for a walk is the perfect opportunity for a teenager to get outdoors and benefit from fresh air and physical activity. Exercise allows people to take control of their bodies，which is often the first step toward regaining control of other aspects of their life，says mental health specialist Dr. Alan Cohen. 3 Exercise releases chemicals called endorphins (內(nèi)排肽）into the brain，which create positive responses in the body, including improved self-esteem. Dogs can help teenagers be more sociable and make new friends, suggests HELPGUIDE. 4_____ A dog is a great ice-breaker, avoiding awkward social situations and putting the teenager at ease with people he meets. The more confident the teen becomes when out and about with his clog, the more his self-esteem will improve.5_____ If a teenager is suffering from depression or developing dangerous habits such as alcohol and drug abuse, more extreme action may be required. In these cases, professional help should be sought and all treatment plans considered. Parents who suspect that their teen’s low selfesteem is a sign of a far more serious problem should ask a suitably qualified health professional for advice.

A. In some cases, having a dog will not help with a teenager’s low self-esteem.

B. It simply accepts its owner for who he is and doesn’t judge, question or criticize.

C. Pets offer an unconditional love that can be very helpful to people with depression.

D. You don’t have to worry about hurting your pet’s feelings or getting advice you don’t want.

E. In particular, someone with low self-esteem may find a pet dog to be extremely beneficial.
