Dear Mr. Watson,

CLAIM AL54323432–-STORM DAMAGE TO ROOF

     I received a cheque for $623 dated 26 January in payment of my recent claim(索賠). However, I wish to tell you how upset I have been by the way your Claims Assessor, Mr. Michael Tan, handled this claim.

    When Mr. Tan first called me, he specifically told me that he believed I had been overcharged, and he would expect to pay that price for work on a double garage, rather than a single garage like mine. Mr. Tan suggested that I neither use nor recommend this contractor again. He continued to tell me it was unlikely for me to receive full payment. Never during this conversation did he mention that the reason for not receiving full payment was because of the nature of my insurance policy.

    Consequently, I wrote to Mr. Lance Ashe to complain about his pricing, stating that I was very upset thinking that he could have taken advantage by overcharging a 73-year-old woman. Mr. Ashe telephoned me immediately and explained his charges in detail. He later reported back to me that Mr. Tan explained that I would not receive full payment because of the type of policy I hold, which does not cover wear and tear. This was the first time this issue had been brought to my attention, so you can imagine my surprise.

   When I received Mr. Tan’s letter of 2 February, this situation was explained. If this had been explained in the first place I would have accepted it and would not have questioned Mr. Ashe’s charges. Instead, by telling me initially that I had been overcharged for this work, he caused a great deal of upset, not only for me but also for Mr. Ashe.

    I believed this claim was handled badly by Mr. Tan from the beginning. Therefore, a great deal of embarrassment has been caused over this issue.

I felt you should know how disappointed and upset I am. I trust you will look into this and ensure that such claims are handled more appropriately in the future.

                                               Yours sincerely,

                                                    Mrs. Richard

1.The author writes this letter to ______.

D. require the manager to fire Mr. Tan 

2.The underlined words “the contractor” in Para.2 refer to ______.

A. Mr. Tan       B. Mrs. Richard      C. Mr. Ashe    D. Mr. Watson

3.The author could not receive full payment because _______.

A. her policy doesn’t cover some of the items        

B. the contractor overcharged her for the work

C. Mr. Watson doesn’t take the matter seriously     

D. she spent too much money fixing her garage

 With only a click of the mouse, rumours（謠言）can be forwarded between microblogs（微博）very quickly. As an example, recently, sensitive netizens discovered that some photos displayed on microblogs describing Beijing’s June rainstorm had actually been fabricated.

Sina.com is one of the major Internet portals in China with hundreds and thousands of users, and a majority of celebrities and famous citizens have their microblog accounts on this portal. As recently as six months ago, the website decided to establish a specialized team to prove rumours and provide accurate information for its users. Tan Chao is in charge of the team.

“ Before I took the job, I usually couldn’t identify what information was real and what was fake. But during the process of identification, we discovered that a lot of information was false, including fake photos, fake news stories and rumours that had been spread through microblogs.”

It’s not just website portals which are taking on fact-checking responsibilities, but also a number of civic-minded netizens, who recently set up a Rumour Identification Federation on Sina.com’s microblog system to help netizens identify fake information online.

Dian Zizheng is the team leader of the federation. He says they’ve publicized more than 150 pieces which contradict rumours, which attracted more than 10 thousand visitors within two months.

“We live in an age of new media, so we can’t use the old methods to prove rumours. We can’t wait for the media to prove the facts with related administrative（行政） departments and then release a formal announcement. We can’t allow rumours to run wild and then deal with it, we need to fight rumours while they’re spreading. I think that this is the best way to deal with rumours nowadays.”

Some experts say this displays the advantages of the internet compared to other traditional media. The open platform allows information to be examined and clarified by netizens. But experts like Ding Wengguo,President of the Journalism and Communication College at the China University of Political Science and Law says this self-correction function of the Internet is still quite limited.

“It’s still quite different to tell which information is true in such an open environment by just reading a number of different opinions on the same issue. This is something which we need to pay attention to. If society is flooded with too much false information, and it’s allowed to spread in such a fast manner, then people will be suspicious（懷疑的） of all kinds of information including important information from authorities. It also worsens problems relating to social communications and mutual-understanding, which in turn harms society as a whole.”

Experts suggest that the government should react more quickly in the Internet age. Once a rumour begins to spread, administrative departments should make announcements as early as possible to drive away rumours before they lead to bad outcomes.

A．prevent the spread of rumours on the Internet

A．made up

4. What is the best way to prove rumors on microblogs?

A．Shutting down the website immediately.

B．Substituting the Internet for traditional media.

C．Examining and checking while they are spreading .

D．Making announcements after they are spread.

Liu Hui is very excited. The students in a school in Shanghai will go to the USA with his parents during the Spring Festival.

    “Overseas touring has always been a dream for me,” he said happily.

    Nowadays, Chinese people enjoy longer holidays, such as the three “Golden Week Holidays”(the Spring Festival, May Day and National Day). They have more time to travel. Rising incomes also make travelling abroad realistic for ordinary Chinese people.

    Nearly 7 million Chinese travelled overseas in 2001, according to the National Tourism Administration(國家旅游局). The most common problem travellers face is how to choose the best routes(路線).

    By the end of 2002, Chinese citizens were allowed to travel to 19 foreign countries and regions at their own expense.

    The top 10 places included Hong Kong, Macao and Thailand. European countries are also becoming increasingly popular.

    “More and more Chinese people have shown interest in travelling to Europe, particularly France and Finland,” said Tan Wen, a general manager of China Youth Travel Service. “Sooner or later, there will be a peak（高峰） in European tours.”

    Another consideration is choosing the right travel agencies and finding the best price. The China Consumers’ Association（CCA，中國消費者協(xié)會）offered tips to consumers on choosing the right travel agencies to help prevent a relaxing vacation from turning into a costly disaster.

    “Price should not be the single most important factor in choosing a travel agency,” said Zhang Yuanchao, CCA vice-secretary general. Consumers are advised to choose large State travel agencies with good reputations and official approval to organize overseas tour groups.

    Zhang’s association dealt with more than 5, 000 complaints about travel agencies（旅行社） last year. And the majority of the complaints were about random changes in travel routes, bad tour guides, and forced shopping.

    Travellers were warned to look carefully at their contracts with agencies and to buy travel insurance(保險).

1.How many reasons are given in the article as to why ordinary Chinese people are traveling abroad more today?

    A．Two.             B．Three.           C．Four.            D．Five.

2.According to the passage, what is the biggest problem Chinese travelers face when going overseas?

    A．Choosing the best travel agent.

    B．Deciding the best way to get to the places they want to go to.

    C．Traveling to Europe.

    D．Cost.

3.According to the passage, what seems to be the most common result of choosing a bad travel agency?

    A．People buy more souvenirs than they had planned to.

    B．People spend more money than they had planned to.

    C．People go to different places than they had palnned to.

    D．People complained more than they had planned to.

4.The underlined part “random changes” probably means that          .

    A．the travelers agreed with the changes.

    B．the travel agency didn’t make any changes.

    C．the travel agency refused to changes the routes.

    D．the travel agency changed the routes or time without following the original plan.
