WA Hi Bill... I'm sorry, I haven't sent them yet. I got caught up in other work... I'm really so sorry.
MA That's... fine, but I really need to put a little pressure on you. We're at a place right now where we can't move forward without the blueprints. Could you please make this a priority？
WA Yes, Bill, I'm so sorry. Tell you what. I'm going to drop what I'm doing right now and make sure the blueprints are ready to go. They'll go out by overnight courier this afternoon. I promise you.

第4题
More than 60 people died in this earthquake. By comparison, as earthquake of similar intensity that shook America in 1988 claimed 25,000 victims.
Injuries and deaths were relatively less in Los Angeles because the quake occurred at 4:31 a.m. on a holiday, when traffic was light on the city’s highways. In addition, changes made to the construction codes in Los Angeles during the last 20 years have strengthened the city’s buildings and highways, making them more resistant to quakes.
Despite the good new, civil engineers aren’t resting on their successes. Pinned to their drawing boards are blueprints (蓝图) for improved quake-resistant buildings. The new designs should offer even greater security to cities where earthquakes often take place.
In the past, making structures quake-resistant meant firm yet flexible materials, such as steel and wood, that bend without breaking. Later, people tried to lift a building off its foundation, and insert rubber and steel between the building and its foundation to reduce the impact of ground vibrations. The most recent designs give buildings brains as well as concrete and steel supports. Called smart buildings, the structures respond like living organisms to an earthquake’s vibrations. When the ground shakes and the building tips forward, the computer would force the building to shift in the opposite direction.
The new smart structures could be very expensive to build. However, they would save many lives and would be less likely to be damaged during earthquakes.
第21题：One reason why the loss of lives in the Los Angeles earthquake was comparatively low is that ________.
A) new computers had been installed in the buildings
B) it occurred in the residential areas rather than on the highways
C) large numbers of Los Angeles residents had gone for a holiday
D) improvements had been made in the construction of buildings and highways

The Art of Public Speaking
Think what might happen if you tried to build a house without a floor plan or an architect's blueprint. You build the kitchen next to the driveway to make it convenient for carrying in groceries. But the dining room turns up at the other end of the house. When you cook and serve a meal, you have to run with the plates to keep the food from getting cold. You put the bathroom at the head of the stairs to make it accessible to visitors. But the door opens in such a way that the unwary guest is catapulted down the steps. Plans and blueprints are essential to architecture. So, too, are outlines essential to effective speeches. An outline is like a blueprint for your speech. By outlining, you make sure that related items are together, that ideas flow from one to another, that the structure of your speech will stand up -- and not collapse. Probably you will use two kinds of outlines for your speeches -- one very detailed, for the planning stage, and one very brief, for the delivery of the speech.
The Preparation Outline
The preparation outline is just what its name implies -- an outline that helps you prepare the speech. Writing a preparation outline means actually putting your speech together. It is the stage at which you decide what you will say in the introduction, how you will organize the main points and supporting materials in the body of the speech, and what you will say in the conclusion.
Now let us look at the guidelines for the outline. The specific purpose statement should be a separate unit that comes before the text of the outline itself. Including the specific purpose in the outline makes it easier to assess how well you have constructed the speech to accomplish your purpose. Some teachers prefer that the central idea be given immediately after the purpose statement. Others prefer that it be given and identified in the text of the outline itself. If you label the parts of your speech, you will be sure that you indeed have an introduction and conclusion and have accomplished the essential objectives of each. Usually the names of the speech parts are placed in the middle of the page or in the far lei1 margin. They are technical labels only and are not included in the system of symbolization used to identify main points and supporting materials. In the most common system of outlining, main points are identified by Roman numerals and are indented (首行缩进) equally so as to be aligned (对齐) down the page. Sub-points are identified by capital letters and are also indented equally so as to be aligned with each other.
Once you have organized the body of your speech, you should have identified the main points. You need only flesh out your outline with sub-points, as necessary, to support the main points. But suppose, as sometimes happens, you find yourself with a list of statements and are not sure which are main points, which are sub-points, and so forth. Such a list might look like this:
There were 13 people at the Last Supper-Jesus and his 12 disciples.
One of the most common sources of superstition is number.
In the United States, 13 is often omitted in the floor numbering of hotels and skyscrapers.
The number 13 has meant bad luck as long as anyone can remember.
Which statement is the main point？ The second statement is the main point, which is broader in scope than any of the other statements. This would be one of the main ideas of your speech. The fourth statement is the sub-point; it immediately supports the main point. The other two statements are sub-sub-points; they illustrate the sub-point. Rearranged properly, they look like this:
A. One of the most common sources of superstition is numbers.
a. The number 13 has meant bad luck as long as anyone can remember.
1. There were 13 people at the Last Supp
A．Y
B．N
C．NG
