任务型阅读

阅读材料，将A、B、C、D四个标题与标题后的四段文字配对，然后完成50题。

Sooner or later everyone has to write something like a thank-you note， a report at a meeting ， a complaint or an apology．If you hate writing assignments in school， or if you still fear to put pen to paper， facing that empty page is almost as frightening as you’re facing a tiger．How to write it? There’s no mystery．Clear writing is just clear thinking．Here are some techniques for you．

     1.  

  Sit down with a pencil and paper or at the computer screen and start thinking about what you want to say， why it’s important， why it matters， and what its impact is on the reader．Just get the ideas down．The next step is to go back and put them in order．

     2.  

  Try to make your first sentence catch the reader’s eyes， because if it can’t， the reader isn’t going to read on．Get a good， clear lead sentence that summarizes your points and that answers the reader’s question “What’s in it for me?” If you can’t do it in one sentence， then do it in two or three but keep them short．

    3.  

  Short， simple words are better than long words．Short sentences are better than long sentences．Remember that the goal is to communicate， not to express yourselves．Most people are so devoted to what they want to say that they forget somebody else has to be able to read it．Too much information makes you lose readers before they understand what you want to say．

    4.  

  Read what you have written out aloud， and listen for any awkward sentences．All good writers read， then rewrite．Back off a little bit from what you’re writing．It’s an old standard， but if you can， write something and come back a day later．

5.How do you write a good article? Please write down one of your suggestions.(不少于5个单词)
