I have the pleasure of working with Shen Hong for five years in my capacity as Human Resoures Manager of ABC Company. She has been employed with us from November 1997 as a receptionist and, most recently, as my executive secretary.
Throughout her career at ABC Company, Shen Hong has distinguished herself with her positive attitude toward people and work. In her dealings with both internal and external customers, she always maintains a high level of professionalism(职业风范) because she fully understands she represents a company whose prosperity depends on satisfied customers. Since becoming my secretary in 2001, Shen Hong has been planning my schedules, coordinating meeting and updating me on daily events. She has also assisted me in a variety of human resources activities ranging from interviewing and recruiting to in-house training and performance reviews. She is one of those rare individuals who can both follow instructions and take initiatives, as appropriate. She is a well-liked team player as well as a self-starter.
Shen Hong’s competence extends beyond secretarial skills for which she was originally hired. Her talent for organization has resulted in an office library with newspapers, business documents, journals and books for all staff members to enjoy. Also because of her efforts, our office files have changed from a source of frustration and lost documents to an efficient information retrieval(回收) system.
Finally, I find Shen Hong to be a good and trusted friend. I came to depend on her advice and her support and have never been disappointed. I feel sorry to lose her, but I agree with her decision to venture into the advertising area where she can move no to become an account manager. I am sure her background at ABC will help her tremendously as she makes her professional advancement. You will find her to be a welcome addition to your staff.

第四单元 Passage 2
During the past few years, the popularization of the Internet, by lowering the cost of
global communication to moderate levels, is leading to a near-perfect market for information. It has bred enterprises that grow and change with astonishing speed, creating millionaires and invigorating the economy. The Net has brought to even poor libraries a wealth of resources at very low cost. It has enabled individuals to speak in forums small and large, with an ease and fluency that would delight the founders of this nation, if they could see mail, the World Wide Web, Usenet, and online chat.
The tremendous good done by the popularization of the Internet has caused some
problems, of course. Chief among these are a weakening of privacy, greater exposure for matters that most people would prefer were absent from society, such as hate speech and child pornography (色情描写), and an increased risk of one’s children (or oneself) being confronted by an image or text that better might have been left unseen. The Internet has brought the entire world into the living room, but some people are finding that there are certain parts of the world they would prefer not to have anywhere in their home. An example that has become an everyday displeasure for many is junk email, also called “spam”(垃圾邮件). On a bad day, up to 30% of the email processed by major Internet service providers (ISPs) is spam, much of it promoting sex sites and get-rich-quick schemes. Many people have had to abandon their email accounts, as they
become filled with trash. Left unchecked, spam could spoil the great public good of the Internet. 翻译:

Dear Sam,
You have just encountered a major setback by being asked to leave the University of Erudition, and my heart goes out to you.
You have given it your very best and there's nothing to be ashamed of. You've always
aimed high, and your mother and I encouraged you every step of the way. In hindsight, however, your high school counselor probably was right when she urged you to enroll instead in any number of universities that were just about as well regarded as U of E, but were somewhat less demanding.
In any case, you'll be home in a couple of days and we'll all be glad to see you. Sam, you
have your whole life ahead of you, so before jumping into anything, take some time and unwind. The car is yours for the asking, and I'm sure you'll get used to home cooking once again.
Before deciding on which college or university to enroll in for next fall, take a close look
at where you've been and where you're heading.
Some people thrive on the pressure--cooker atmosphere you experienced at U of E...
one that constantly demands 110% of their efforts. Their need for it doesn't end with graduation. Unless one is attuned to this pace, you might expect an ulcer or a stress-induced coronary in later years. Better to find out now that this isn't your bag and pace your life accordingly.
Hang in there, Pal. Come fall, you'll make a fresh beginning somewhere else. And don't
consider the past year a waste. You've matured enormously and will be better off for it.
Take time out to enjoy football games and weekend parties... you're only young once.
Keep giving it your best, and I'm sure you’ll land on your feet.

你只是被要求离开大学博学遇到重大挫折,我的心与你。
你给你的最好的,没有什么值得羞愧的。你总是很高的目标,你的母亲和我鼓励你走好每一步。然而,在事后,你高中的辅导员也许是对她要求你注册而在任何数量的大学都一样,作为U E,但有些要求不高。
在任何情况下,你会在几天内回来,我们会很高兴见到你。山姆,你有你你的一生,
所以在跳到什么,花些时间放松。这辆车是你的要求,我相信你会习惯在家做饭再次。
在决定上大学报名参加明年秋天,仔细看看你在哪里,你的方向。
有些人需要在压力锅的气氛——你有你的努力。一个不断要求自己的努力110%。
他们对它不应该随着毕业而结束的需要。除非是适应这样的节奏,你可能期望一个溃疡或应激以后冠状动脉。更好的了解现在,这不是你的包和步伐,你的生活因此挂在那里,伙计。到了秋天,你会创造一个全新的开始的地方。不要把过去一年浪费。你已经成熟了,它将成为更好的。
花时间去享受足球比赛和周末聚会…你只能年轻一次。给你最好的,我相信你会成
功的。 书上题目:
