北京市朝阳、大兴、东城、顺义、通州区 2019-2020高一英语第二学年期末真题汇编--阅读理解 北京市朝阳区2019-2020学年第二学期期末学业水平调研高一英语试卷 阅读理解 A Dear Sir/Madam, As you know, next month will see the Have a Heart activity, which is a part of the heart research. As part of support for it, several students here at Trent High School have decided to organize a half-marathon event on August 1st. All the money that we hope to raise by doing this will go to Have a Heart. In order to raise as much money as possible, we are doing two things: a) asking members of the public to sponsor (赞助) individual runners in the race, and b) looking for companies to help raising money. It is for this second reason that I am writing to you now. As the leader of Trent High School’s half-marathon committee, I am writing to ask if your company would be willing to consider providing sponsorship for our event. What we had in mind, if you are agreeable，is to put the sponsor’s name on the numbers of each runner, and to have the sponsor’s name on banners (横幅) along the way as well as at the finish line. We believe that our sponsor will get a lot of positive publicity. It is difficult, of course, to make a request for a specific amount of money, but we are hoping that the company which sponsors us would do so to the amount of ?1,000 or more, and would perhaps also contribute to the making of banners etc. We do hope that more people and companies can give your love to the heart research. Should you be interested, please get in touch with us at the above address. Thank you for giving our request your attention. We look forward to hearing from you. Yours faithfully, James MacDonald 41.

D B If you were asked to imagine a scientist, what image would come to your mind? The idea that most of the kids have is a man wearing a white lab coat with messy hair, big glasses, and cups of colorful liquids giving off clouds of smoke. As for adults, the majority regard scientists as strange people who spend a lot of time working in a lonely lab. However, the reality is quite different. Recently I’ve had a chance to take part in a scientific experience far from my lab and into Costa Rica. It has a large amount of wildlife d ... ...
