3.CGUATEMALA CITY (Reuters) – A fish that lives in mangrove swamps(红树沼泽)across the Americas can live out of water for months at a time, similar to how animals adapted(适应)to land millions of years ago, a new study shows.The Magrove Rivulus, a type of small killifish, lives in small pools of water in a certain type of empty nut or even old beer cans in the mangrove swamps of Belize, the United States and Brazil. When their living place dries up, they live on the land in logs(圆木),said Scott Taylor, a researcher at the Brevard Endangered Lands Program in Florida.The fish, whose scientific name is Rivulus marmoratus, can grow as large as three inches. They group together in logs and breathe air through their skin until they can find water again.The new scientific discovery came after a trip to Belize.“We kicked over a log and the fish just came crowding out,” Taylor told Reuters in neighboring Guatgemala by telephone. He said he will make his study on the fish known to the public in an American magazine early next year.In lab tests, Taylor said he found the fish can live up to 66 days out of water without eating.Some other fish can live out of water for a short period of time. The walking catfish found in Southeast Asia can stay on land for hours at time, while lungfish found in Australia, Africa and South America can live out of water, but only in an inactive state. But no other known fish can be out of water as long as the Mangrove Rivulus and remain active, according to Patricia Wright, a biologist at Canada’s University of Guelph.Further studies of the fish may tell how animals changed over time.“These animals live in conditions similar to those that existed millions of years ago, when animals began making the transition(过渡)from water onto land,” Wright said.49. The Mangrove Rivulus is a type of fish that _______.A. likes eating nutsB. prefers living in dry placesC. is the longest living fish on earthD. can stay alive for two months out of water

    正确答案: 【参考范文】
    The column graph shows us the spectator numbers for three different types of football, namely, Aerial Ping Pong, Rugby and Soccer in the city of Plonkers for the years 1986, 1990, and 1994.
    Aerial Ping Pong was popular in all the three years. As we can see, there are 300 thousand spectators in1986, 350 thousand in 1990 and nearly 325 thousand in 1994. Spectator numbers were high for Rugby in l986, at 250 thousand, but numbers fell to 200 thousand in 1990, and things go worse to less than 150 thousand in 1994. In contrast, spectator numbers for Soccer were less than 50 thousand in 1986, but the numbers were doubled in 1990 at100 thousand, and in l994 they had increased to 150 thousand, which was more than the number for Rugby.
    From the figures provided for these three years, we have the reason to conclude that, generally speaking, during this period for these three years that, Aerial Ping Pong remained the most popular sport, while the spectator numbers for Rugby and Soccer were contrastive

    To: Mr Bryant, Manager
    From: J Smith, Trainee
    Date: 12th Sept.1998
    Subject: Daily Newspapers
    After looking into the problem of the staff’s missing newspapers, I find out that there seem to be two main explanations for it.
    Before the arrival of the receptionist, some staff not entitled to the newspapers nevertheless take them from the reception area.
    There are surplus newspapers when staff are absent or away on business trips, so other employees not entitled to them tend to pick them up.
    I think the solution is to ask the deliveryman to place the newspapers in a container, the keys of which are only available to him and the receptionist. For the receptionist, a list of staff entitled to the newspapers should be made and the names should be ticked off daily as and when the papers are collected. When staff entitled to the newspapers are going to be away for some time, the receptionist should be informed so as to cancel their papers.
    It is inevitable that sometimes there are still surplus newspapers, so I would recommend that these be distributed at the discretion of the receptionist. Please let me know if any action needs to be taken.

    Dear Ms. Spinks,
    Thank you for writing an email concerning the missing delivery. I must apologize to you for the inconvenience caused by the delay. I have investigated the matter, and found out that a dockers’ strike at the port led to the delay. This morning we went to the port to negotiate with the dockers’ union for a quick loading, which is the reason why you were unable to get in touch with us. I must give you my apology for any inconvenience.
    I am happy to inform you that the dockers have agreed to ship the goods of your order and the ship may start sailing this afternoon so that it will reach your city in two days as soon as possible. In order to compensate for the delay, we are willing to offer you a 15% discount of the charge for your order.
    We look forward to receiving more orders from your company in the near future.

    Date: Oct.23, 2012
    Subject: New Premise
    Introduction
    The Health, Safety, and Environmental team and the Admin Team jointly inspected our targeted premise-16th floor of the Fortune Building. It is an upscale office building with very good facilities such as parking lot, and A/C. The top floor of the building is what we are looking at. It is quoted 100 per square meters per month.
    Recommendation
    We, the working team, suggest that we would like to take this premise. We made this decision after inspecting a dozen of office buildings in the three month’s. The judgment is made in terms of the cost, fame and accessibility. The schedule of its availability can also satisfy our schedule of moving.
    Conclusion
    In the downtown area, this is the ONLY new office building. Locating in the downtown area means that we get much closer to all our suppliers and customers. This will make us more appealing and bring us convenience, and also save our people time, cost and energy to travel from what we are now to the downtown area. The building has really very good fame that matches us as a Multi-National Company better than before. With respect to cost, our planned budget is enough to cover the cost, and according to the agency the offer is negotiable.

    From: Will Smith
    Date: Oct.23, 2012
    Subject: How to Foster Team Spirit
    Introduction
    It is noticed that at present there is not very good teamwork among co-workers. People concentrated solely on what they are doing, and are devoted to their own work, and are unwilling to provide some help to those who work together with them.
    Findings
    It is right to say that everyone has their own roles and accountabilities in this organization. It is still a pity though we can not work as closely as possible in a team. As we all know, people are different from each other, and everybody has their own merits and demerits. It is unquestionable that we can achieve team objective better if our people use their advantages to help those who are now busy coping with their jobs using their disadvantages. In addition, no one is successful if our team loses.
    Recommendations
    Such being the case, I suggest that we arrange a teambuilding activity. In the event, we make our people realize the importance of changing the current situation, get them to tell us what are their opinions about this, and what are the reasons from their perspectives, and what we can jointly do to improve it.

    Report on Sponsoring ‘‘2009 Super Girl” Introduction:
    The purpose of this report is to find out reasons of sponsoring “2009 Super Girl” on Hu’nan TV and evaluate this decision in order to guide next year’s sponsoring policy.
    Reasons:
    This year’s “Super Girl” was sponsored by our company, as it would be shown on Hu’nan TV. It was expected that this exposure would improve public recognition of the company name and its products because during the break time the candidates, hosts and hostess will make recommendation to our casual clothes.
    Advantages & Disadvantages:
    We delegated a market research company to conduct an on line research in the week following the broadcast, and this revealed an increase of six percentage points in public awareness of our name in comparison with a year ago. Furthermore, after the program sales increased by nearly 50 percent immediately, compared with the same period in the previous year. Also, since we sponsored it we have received more offers than last years.
    The cost of sponsorship had taken up over half the total marketing budget for the current financial year, which was greater than expected. The research found that too many offers led to another problem: it is impossible for the company to complete the tasks punctually because we lack skilled workers and enough equipment.
    Recommendation:
    It would be advisable that sponsorship should be on the basis of the company’s financial ability and strictly follow its annual budget. Besides, proper investment on staff and new equipment would make contribution to the company’s development.

    To: Mr. Walker, Human Resources Director
    From: Zhang Gao, Translating Coordinator
    Date: May 16, 2012
    Subject: Management Skills Most Suitable for Foreign Language Translators
    The Company has planned three training courses for all foreign language translators for the next three months and I have been required to recommend one course as being the most suitable.
    The three courses from which a choice may be made are as follows:
    (i)English Language Development; (ii) Changes in Technology; (iii) Management Skills.
    All translators in the Company have college degrees in English Language and a lot of colleagues in our field have postgraduate qualifications in Translation or Linguistics. Since English Language Training Course of the Company is only to Diploma level and contains nothing new to us, it is not useful for us and is best left to other colleagues.
    Two months ago all Company’s translators finished an excellent “Changes in Technology” course, which brought us up-to-date information on use of machine translating and personal computers. Obviously, there is no need for us to attend the “Changes in Technology” course again.
    Undoubtedly the “Management Skills” course is the best choice for the Company’s translators. Recently it has been announced that next year our department will be divided into four sections, each of which will serve a specific division of a much-expanded Company. We will recruit twenty new English Language graduates as new translators, five to each section. We four existing translators will be promoted as Heads of Section.
    All four of us are shortage of management skills and, when we manage our own sections, such skills will be indispensable. As a result, I will recommend without hesitation that all translators be enrolled for the “Management Skills” training course.
