任务型阅读

    Perhaps at one point in time, it is acceptable to start any letter or e-mail with "To Whom It May Concern".  Starting your cover letter or e-mail for a job this way might give the impression that you didn't do your research on who you're writing to.  After all, people who address other people by their names when writing and speaking to them tend to be more pleasant.

     It can be used in letters of recommendation or reference, formal complaints (抱怨) made to a company, letters of introduction, and letters of interest.

Grammarly uses the example of needing to write a letter of recommendation for a colleague who will have to make several copies to distribute to interviewers.  "In most cases, though, try to narrow your focus rather than cast a broad net," notes  Grammarly. "Ask yourself 'Who does this e-mail concern?' If you can honestly answer 'Anyone', then feel free to use "To Whom It May Concern".(These are the things you should never say in your cover letter.)

    If you do happen to find that using "To Whom May Concern" is appropriate , don't make grammar mistakes, for example , letters or punctuation.  .

A. You might want to take note of other common errors you might be committing, too.

B. But according to Grammarly, there are four times when it's OK to use this greeting.

C. Making mistakes in writing will surely get you low scores.

D. It's also very impersonal, and some employers might not appreciate it.

E. In that circumstance, sending and receiving letters is more of a formal greeting.

F. However, it may be interesting.

G. Those times have changed, though.

Zoo animals VS animals in the wild

    Zoo animals usually live longer than their wild counterparts. This is because they have access to medical care and better nutrition in zoos. Moreover, there is a lack of predators(捕食者).{#blank#}1{#/blank#} Elderly wild animals lose their strength, ability to find and digest food and often lose their social standing in their species social structure. Zoos are learning how to care for old animals.

    Boredom is a big problem for animals in zoos and something animals in the wild do not have to face. Animal experts believe that a small place produces boredom.{#blank#}2{#/blank#} They also provide companions and hide pieces of food so the animals have to search for it as in the wild.

    {#blank#}3{#/blank#} A case in point is the Asiatic wild horse. The species was hunted to extinction in the wild by 1969. The entire world population now lives in zoos and nature preserves. The largest population is kept at the National Zoo in Washington. D.C. All of those animals were zoo-born.

    Animals living in the wild may come into contact with people. The animals may hunt livestock(家畜)or eat farmers' crops.{#blank#}4{#/blank#} In good zoos, people can see that these animals are not just able to make trouble, but lead complex lives. This can help people save the animal and the habitat needed to keep the animal alive in the wild.

    Animals often reproduce better when they are in the wild.{#blank#}5{#/blank#} One of the remarkable examples is the female giant panda. Using artificial(人工的) means has helped raise the worldwide panda population. Also, by trying to recreate the animal's natural living conditions as much as possible, zoo animals will breed.

B. However, some animals are an exception

    It is now possible to watch live sport on television on any day of the week, and the present amount of reporting will undoubtedly increase further in years to come. This is certainly having an influence on the live sports events themselves, and there are both benefits and shortcomings to this.

    {#blank#}1{#/blank#} For one thing, with digital broadcasting, there are now many more TV channels than there were even ten years ago. Moreover, sport has become an important form of entertainment, attracting both men and women.

Considering football again, many small clubs have suffered financial losses recently, as they cannot compete with the large ones. {#blank#}4{#/blank#} Fewer people watch live matches nowadays, preferring to watch from the comfort of their living room. And ticket prices have risen greatly.

    In a word, watching live sport on television has both good and bad effects. Televised sport has created many chances and benefited certain people and clubs very much. {#blank#}5{#/blank#}

When you hear the word "culture", you may think of nations or societies. {#blank#}1{#/blank#}What is family culture? It is the combination (结合) of values, expectations, and experiences that describes a family and shapes the way its members get along with each other.

Everyone has a unique culture that determines who they are as a person. Your family culture helps you understand your traditions and explains the reason for your behavior every day. It's important to you. {#blank#}2{#/blank#} A deeper sense of unity and togetherness is important for a family culture. The following will help you understand how to uncover your cultural story with your family.

{#blank#}3{#/blank#}_ You can find out what your family's values are and what they stand for by looking at the traditions around those values. You can do this by talking to people you respect in your family or by using some simple Internet searches. Through looking into your family's history, you will understand the context of their culture.

The last step is to share it with people. You can talk to your family about their culture and let them know that you've written down what they are like. You can also talk to friends who know little about your family's culture. {#blank#}5{#/blank#}

Exploring your family's culture is an exciting process that will bring new meaning to everything you've ever held dear. So start your journey of uncovering it right now!

A. This is a key part of the process.
