Ⅰ.阅读理解

(建议用时8′)

It is certain that when the eruption of Vesuvius started on the morning of 24 August,79 AD，it caught the local population unprepared.It is mainly thanks to the account of the younger Pliny that we have some understanding of what happened.And it is through him that we can gain insight into the reactions and feelings of the people caught up in the drama of this natural disaster.Pliny’s account leaves no doubt that everyone was caught unprepared.His uncle，known as the elder Pliny，was stationed in command of the imperial(帝国的) naval base at Misenum，on the north­west extremity of the Bay of Naples.He was not only the senior military officer in the district，but possibly the most well informed living Roman on matters of natural science.His 37­volume Natural History is the longest work on science in Latin that has survived from antiquity (古代)．

But for all his science and his seniority，his nephew told us that the elder Pliny was relaxing，after a bath and lunch，when Vesuvius started to erupt.And the sighting of a column of smoke “like an umbrella pine” on the far side of the Bay caused a response more of curiosity than of alarm in him.The same account showed，however，that the signs were there.But they didn’t realize the danger because the phenomenon was frequent in Vesuvius then.

The eruption lasted for more than 24 hours from its start on the morning of 24 August.Those who fled at once had a chance of survival.It is clear that many，like the elder Pliny，thought their best chance was to take shelter and survived the storm.

The hundreds of refugees sheltering in the street at the seaside in Herculaneum，holding their jewellery and money，met their end quickly.It is impossible to tell how many citizens died.

The discovery of Pompeii is of huge importance for our modern day understanding of the ancient Roman world.Their destruction left important questions unanswered，and made it impossible in many ways to gather a satisfactory understanding of the Roman world from them.

The principles about applying for jobs have altered greatly lately.In the past，people preferred a hand­written application letter.However，nowadays it is becoming more and more common to apply for a job through the Internet.You can find information on the Internet about how to apply for jobs.Information can be found about how to fulfill your application letter，the clothes that you should wear and how to carry out the interview itself.

The importance of body language is often mentioned，but doesn’t always get the attention it deserves.After all，before a word has even been spoken，your body language will have already given people their first impression of you.Additionally，your body language will also give out a lot more information.Based on your body language it can be seen if you are self­confident.It can also show if you are a busy or a quiet type and it helps give an impression of whether you are speaking truthfully or not.Body language can show how enthusiastic you are and if you are a nice person，someone who will take his work seriously，but also someone who has a sense of humor and can enjoy a joke from time to time.The members of the application committee will ask you questions，but your answers won’t only be oral.The committee will not only pay attention to what you say，but also to how you say it！Body language will determine first if it ‘clicks’，and sometimes all it takes is just a few seconds.Everybody uses body language，but it takes place mostly at a subconscious(下意识的) level.Using body language appropriately，you can definitely increase your chances of getting a job.
