Dear Sir or Madam,
I’m writing this letter to complain about the poor service of your restaurant.
Yours truly,
Li Hua
参考答案：
Dear Sir or Madam,
I’m writing this letter to complain about the poor service of your restaurant.
Yesterday, I went to your restaurant to have lunch with my classmate. We reserved our seats in advance, but the server at the front desk told us that he didn’t receive our call at all. So we had to wait for almost half an hour for a table. After that, when we asked a waitress to bring us a fork, she pretended not to have heard us. Worse still, another waitress spilt some soup on my classmate’s dress but she even didn’t say sorry to us.
I can’t believe that such things could happen in your restaurant, which enjoys a good fame for many years. Forgive me if I’m impolite, but we’re very angry about this and we hope that you can give us a satisfactory explanation. We are looking forward to your early reply.
Yours truly,
Li Hua
三、阅读理解
20. College is a lifetime investment (投资) — the gift of a college education can open the door to a world of opportunity for your child or grandchild. Savings（储蓄）, even not so many at a time, can make a big difference.
With the cost of a college education continuing to rise, the key is to start saving early and regularly. By saving a set (固定的) amount at set times, your money can grow as your child does. According to the College Board, the average cost for four-year public colleges has increased by nearly 51% over the last 10 years and these costs will almost
certainly continue to rise. Saving for college can help with the increasing cost of a college education and help you be well prepared when your child is ready for college.
Saving for your child’s college education is an investment in their future. The savings you make today will pay off in increased earnings(收入) in the future. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, college graduates earn an average of $1 million more than high school graduates during their careers. The value of your investment in a college education will continue to grow for a lifetime.
Set your college saving goals realistically(现实地). You may not be able to save enough for all four years’ fees, but you could save enough to give your child the right start.
More and more families depend on student loans(贷款) to pay for college. By saving for college, families will have less burden of paying off loans and help their children leave school without worrying about paying off loans.

21. I was very disappointed not to be able to go to the concert last Friday. The advertisement in the paper said you could buy tickets at the theatre box any day between 10:00 and 4:00. Since I work from 9:00 to 5:30, the only time I could go to the theatre was during my 45-minute lunch break. Unfortunately, the theatre is on the other side of the town, and the bus service between my office and the theatre is not good. But if you are lucky, you can make the round trip in 45 minutes. Last Monday, I stood at the bus stop for 15 minutes. By the time I saw one come, there was not enough time left to make the trip. So I gave up and went back to the office. The same thing happened on Tuesday, and again next day. On Thursday, my luck changed.
I got on a bus right away and arrived at the theatre in 20 minutes. When I got there, however, I found a long line at the box office, and I heard one man say he had been waiting for over an hour. Realizing I would not have enough time to wait in line, I caught the next bus and headed back. By Friday I realized my only hope was to make the trip by taxi. It was expensive, but it would be worth it to hear the concert. The trip by taxi only took 10 minutes, but felt like an hour to me. When I got to the theatre, I was relieved to see that nobody was waiting in line. The reason, however, I quickly discovered, was that they had already sold all the tickets.
21. The man learned from _______ that there would be a concert on Friday.
A. the bus stop
B. the theatre box
C. one man in line
D. the newspaper
22. He tried to go to the theatre every day but managed to get there only _______.
A. once
B. three times
C. twice
D. four times
23.One day the man took _______ to get to the theatre by bus．
A. forty-five minutes
B. twenty minutes
C. fifteen minutes
D. ten minutes
24. The underlined word “relieved” may best be replaced by _______.
A. pleased
B. surprised
C. puzzled
D. sorry
参考答案：
21.D
22.C
23.B
24.A
