23、incerely,Alice Major致建筑师的一封信桑德斯女士艾丽斯梅杰总建筑师 剑桥街64号影院设计公司 班克斯敦希尔街44号班克斯敦200_年9月24日亲爱的桑德斯女士:今天我从报上了解到,您将成为班克斯敦新电影院的建筑设计师。我希望您不介意我写信询问您是否已考虑到残疾顾客的需要。尤其是以下几点不知您是否考虑到了:1为乘坐轮椅的人提供充分的便利通道。影院内的各个部分都安装电梯就会很方便。电梯的按钮应当让乘坐轮椅的人容易够到,电梯门应足够宽。在有些电影院里,(残疾人专用)电梯设在影院背后阴冷而不显眼的地方。由于残疾人必须要使用这些电梯,这就使残疾人感到自己比其他顾客低一等。2给听力有障碍
24、的人提供耳机。所有座位的旁边都装有耳机,而不是少数几个座位,那会有帮助。这样可以使那些听力有缺陷的顾客去享受那些听力正常的朋友们的陪伴,而不是让他们必须坐在一个特定的区域。3抬高座位。身材矮小的人常常看不到屏幕。所以我想建议影院后排的座位应该调整得比前排的高,以便每个人都能很容易地看到屏幕。也许可以让每一横排的排头都留出空位,以便坐轮椅的人坐在他们的朋友旁边。4厕所。在影院入口处的附近安排厕所会让残疾人感觉更加方便。只在离放映大厅很远的地下室为残疾人安排一个厕所,这种做法会给他们带来麻烦。如果厕所的门能设计成向外开,残疾顾客将会很高兴。5停车场。当然还得专门为残疾司机和老年司机安排停车场。如果
25、这些停车场离影院出入口都很近,残疾人就会很轻松地到达影院。感谢您阅读我的信,我希望我的建议能得到您的认可。残疾人应当和健全人有同样的机会来欣赏电影,同时能保持自己的尊严。如果您设计的电影院能够为残疾人提供方便,那么,我相信许多人都会夸奖您的电影院,而且电影院的老板也会高兴,因为有更多的人能够去看电影了,他们就能赚更多的利润了!此致敬礼艾丽斯梅杰 resignvi.& vt.辞职,辞去(工作、职位等)(经典例句)In order to look after her sick mother,Mary decided to resign as manager in the company.为了照顾生

70、 Robert Frosts most familiar and popular poems. It is made up of four stanzas(节) of five lines each. The popularity of the poem is largely a result of the simplicity of its symbolism: the speaker must choose between diverging(分叉的) paths in a wood, and he thinks that choice is like choosing between d
71、ifferent directions in life. Though it is a simple poem, different people have different interpretations of how the speaker feels about his situation and how the readers view the speaker.Frost wrote the poem in the first person, which raises the question of whether the speaker is the poet himself or
72、 a persona, a character created for the purpose of the poem. According to a biography,Robert Frost: The Years of Triumph by Lawrance Thompson, Frost would often introduce that the speaker was based on his friend Edward Thomas,“A person who, whichever road he went, would be sorry he didnt go the othe
73、r.” In the first stanza, the speaker must choose between two paths in different directions. He regrets that he cannot follow both roads, so he pauses for a long while to consider his choice. In this stanza and the next, one road seems preferable; however, in the third stanza he has decided that the
74、two paths are roughly equivalent(相同的). And then he tries to cheer himself up by comforting himself that he will return someday and walk the other road. In the last part of the poem, however, the speaker realizes that he probably will never return to walk another path. He believes that when he looks
75、back years later, he will see that he had actually chosen the “less traveled” road, which may make a big difference to his life. The poem is entitled The Road Not Taken, which implies that he will never stop thinking about the other path he might have followed.【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要评析了Robert Frost的诗歌未选择的
76、路。 5Why is the poem The Road Not Taken popular?AIt is simple to interpret.BIts author is the most famous.CIts scene is similar to real situations in life.DIt expresses a kind of mysterious poetic imagery.C解析:细节理解题。根据第一段的The popularity of the poem is largely a result of the simplicity of its symbolis
77、m 可知,这首诗很出名是因为诗中的场景和真实生活中的情境很相似,容易与读者产生共鸣。 6.What do we know about the two roads according to the second stanza?AVery few people can choose both roads.BThe two roads are actually the same.COne of the roads seems better.DBoth roads are easy to choose.C解析:细节理解题。根据第三段的In this stanza and the next, one r
78、oad seems preferable可知,在诗中描述的两条路中,其中一条路似乎更好。7. How would the speaker feel years later according to the author?AHe would keep dreaming of going back.BThe choice he made changed his life greatly.CHe had chosen the better one of the two roads.DThe road not taken could have made him happier.B解析:推理判断题。根据
79、最后一段第二句中的which may make a big difference to his life可知,多年以后,the speaker会意识到他选择的路改变了他的人生。 七选五Few things are as frightening as being caught in tornados. 1._Fortunately, there are steps you can take to prepare and keep yourself and your loved ones safe.2_Your chosen location could be a basement, bathro
