3. C。由第六段的“The best thing a student can do besides asking early is to provide the recommender with information”以及下文作者给出的种种建议可以推知C为正确答案，一封好的推荐信需要被推荐人与写推荐信的人多沟通交流，并提供必要的参考资料才行。

D2

1. C。由第一段的“The Huffington Post released a list of seven mistakes we need to let go of in order to become happier people. Let’s take a look.”可以推知C为正确答案。

2. B。前面一句提到“Crying is the body’s emotional response to outside triggers”，在困难的日子里，哭泣是身体对于外界刺激的一种情感反应，通过____它，你可能就会损害你的身心健康。根据上下文句意，可知B为最佳选项，suppress表示“压制”。

3. D。由该段后面的“The brain gets used to going to bed at roughly the same time each night and getting up at the same time each day, and you don’t want to disturb this routine.”可知interfere with your body’s biorhythms在这里相当于disturb this routine，选项里D项与disturb意义相近。
