Dear Mr. La,

I have been approached by a Mr. Lincoln Harris, presently an economist with the Florida Sugar Corporation, who has asked me to recommend him for graduate study at your institution. As I consider him to be very well-qualified, I am very pleased to comply with his request.

In 2001, he jointed this Corporation as an Assistant Economist to help determine optimum sugar production levels. As he was very dedicated to his work and efficient, he was promoted to the position of Financial Analyst in 2004. Besides having an unusual ability to supervise our computerized operations, he has also demonstrated a high level of managerial expertise. As a person, he is very cooperative and assiduous.

Without hesitation, I should like to say that I am confident that he possesses the necessary prerequisites to be a successful graduate student at your university.

Sincerely yours,

Philip Martin

【填空题】再听录音或仔细阅读文本，并完成测验。 Programming Languages Student: Professor Martin, I just finished my Java assignment, but I still have some questions. Instructor: Sure, Andrew. Student: I’m having a hard time keeping all the languages straight. There are so many. Instructor: There are quite a few. Which ones are you having trouble with？ Student: All of them. I think it’s confusing to have all these （1）. Instructor: I see where you’re coming from. It’s a lot to learn. Student: But why are there so many different languages？ Instructor: The first reason is that it makes developing （2） easier. Student: How is that？ Instructor: The computer only understands commands in （3） language, or （4） digits. It would take programmers a long time to write programs in binary format. Student: I see. Instructor: Instead, programmers use human readable （5） languages, like Java. That allows us to write programs faster than ever before. Student: I understand that. But why are there so many human-readable programming languages？ Instructor: Some human-readable programming languages are more appropriate for certain kinds of software. Does that answer your question？ Student: Yes. I guess that makes sense. Thanks.
