In fact, he's one of your best reporters. He wants to leave.Your reporter gave me a copy of his resume （简历）and photocopies of six stories that he wrote for you. The headlines showed you played them proudly. With great enthusiasm, he talked about how he finds issues （问题）, approaches them, and writes about them, which tells me he is one of your best. I'm sure you would hate to lose him. Surprisingly, your reporter is not unhappy. In fact, he told me he really likes his job. He said he has a great assignment （分工）, and you run a great paper. It would be easy for you to keep him, he said. He knows that the paper values him. He appreciates the responsibility you've given him, takes ownership of his profession, and enjoys his freedom.So why is he looking for a way out?He talked to me because he wants his editors to demand so much more of him. He wants to be pushed, challenged, coached to new heights.The reporter believes that good stories spring from good questions, but his editors usually ask how long the story will be, where it can be played, and what the budget is.He longs for conversations with an editor who will help him turn his good ideas into great ones. He wants someone to get excited about what he's doing and to help him turn his story idea upside down andinside out, exploring the best ways to report it. He wants to be more valuable for your paper. That's what you want for him, too, isn't it?So your reporter has set me thinking.Our best hope in keeping our best reporters, copy editors, photographers, artists—everyone—is to work harder to make sure they get the help they are demanding to reach their potential. If we can't do it, they'll find someone who can.36. What does the writer think of the reporter?A. Optimistic.B. Imaginative.C. Ambitious.D. Proud.37.

He handed the girl to her father, David Anderson, who had dive in after him.“I didn’t think at all,”Duret told the Daily News. “It happened very fast. I reacted very fast.”Duret, an engineer on vacation, was walking with his girlfriend along the pier（码头）when he saw something falling into the water. He thought it was a doll, but realized it was a child when he approached the river. In an instant, he took off his coat and jumped into the water.When he reached the girl, she appeared lifeless, he said. Fortunately, when she was out of the water, she opened her eyes.Anderson said his daughter slipped off the bank when he was adjusting his camera. An ambulance came later for her, said Duret, who was handed dry clothes from onlookers. Duret caught a taxi with his girlfriend shortly after.The rescue happened on the day before he left for France.

Having enough free time is more important to most Americans than being rich, according to a new poll.Only 13 percent of more than 2,400 people questioned in the telephone poll ranked beingwealthy as most important to them, while67 percent ranked free time as their top priority, higher than having a successful career, getting married, and having children. "Everyone wants free time to do the things they want to do, young, middle-aged or old," said Richard Morin, of the Pew Social & Demographic Trends Project, which conducted the survey. "So our desire to play unites us. "The poll also showed that people who were university educated valued career success over wealth, so did middle-aged people. Not surprisingly, those who didn't have money, ranked wealth very highly. This included minorities, first generation Americans and less educated people. The survey also revealed that a disproportionate（不成比例的）number of people under the age of 30 and retirees in the group made ＄20,000 or less a year. But the emphasis on wealth lessens with age, with younger people putting value on it but hardly any seniors. "It just diminishes with time as the reality sets in that you would never be rich," Morin said. "But also, the reality sets in that you don't have to be rich to lead a very comfortable and fulfilling life. "While wealth was not at the top of people's list of priorities, 43 percent still said it was somewhat important.44. The poll showed that the majority of Americanpeople ranked ________ as the most important.A. wealthB. a successful careerC. marriageD. free time45. Who cares least for wealth, according to thepassage?A. Young people.B. Middle-aged people.C. Old people.D. Well-educated people.46. According to the poll, middle-aged peopleregarded ______ as more important.A. success in careerB. education levelC. wealthD. comfort47. The underlined word "diminishes" in the thirdparagraph probably means __________.A. increasesB. decreasesC. changesD. staysDResearchers, policy makers and activists are busy preparing for the International AIDS Conference. The next conference begins Sunday in Vienna, Austria. On Tuesday, the Obama administration announced its National HIV/AIDS Strategy. The plan aims to reduce new HIV infections by twenty-five percent within five years. It also aims to make sure infected patients get treatment more quickly.HIV is the virus that causes AIDS. The government says sixty-five percent of Americans who discover they are infected get treatment within three months. The new plan calls for increasing that to eighty-five percent. Thirty million dollars from the health care reform law is to go to support prevention activities, including expanded HIV testing.Over one million Americans are living with the virus, out of an estimated thirty-three million people worldwide.Last week, government scientists in the United States announced the discovery of two antibodies （抗体）that raise hopes for an AIDS vaccine（疫苗）. They say these antibodies can stop more than ninety percent of all known strains of HIV. Antibodies are proteins that the body makes to help protect itself against infection. Researchers made the discovery at the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases. The director of its Vaccine Research Center, Gary Nabel, says each antibody blocks the virus from attaching to white blood cells.The UN AIDS agency gives credit to proper measures. It says young people in Africa are waiting longer to have sex. They are also having fewer sexual partners. And they are increasingly using condoms（安全套）. The agency says with the methods HIV rates are falling in sixteen of the twenty-five hardest-hit countries in Africa.48. All of the following about the Obamaadministration’s National HIV Strategy is true EXCEPT __________.A. It aims to cut down the number of newinfections on a large scaleB. It aims to put 65% of infected Americans intothe quick treatment systemC. It ensures the quick treatment of the Americanswho get infectedD.

People expect me to be fearful for the future of print. After all, in some people´s minds I wouldn´t be able to build a career in journalism if it all moves online. However, strangely enough, I´m actually comforted by the fact that online journalism is becoming usual. I am a blogger who has always been able to find a home for my writing online.Since I began writing blogs, I have become aware of how many people you can reach with online writing. Compare this to the newspapers circulation base, and you will have a strong reason for online journalism.In her successful blog post titled “The job I have spent the last year learning is not the one I will have”, author Jenny Surane states,“Pri nt is an expensive product to love. And general managers, publishers and editors must now figure out a profitable way to get their news into readers´heads.” She goes on to state that people don´t feel like picking up a newspaper now and would rather scroll(滚屏) through their Twitter feed, and get news from many different sources.If print is dying, then a new form of communicating information is being born. The need for information has not died. If anything, it has increased. What has died, rather, is the way in which information is presented.Now more than ever, in this age of information, there is a desire for stories on the same topic from different points of view. The printing industry can keep pace with the need of providing a variety of sources, if it chooses to.Is the future of print grim? Maybe. But is the future of journalism of communicating information to people, grim as well? Definitely not.1. According to Paragraph 2, the author feels .A.confident about the future of his careerB.worried about the future of printC.tired of being a newspaper journalistD.embarrassed about online writing2. What information is conveyed in Jenny´s blog post?A.Twitter is not very popular.B.It is hard to manage online journalism.C.Print still has its own advantages.D.People have more options to get information.3. What does the underlined word “grim” in the last paragraph probably mean?A.Promising.B.Depressing.C.Unforgiving.D.Encouraging.4. What is the author´s purpose in writing the text?A.To explore the future of journalism.B.To analyse the cause of print decline.C.To explain the bright future of a journalist.D.To introduce a successful blog post about print.Ⅲ. 完形填空One academically excellent young person went to apply for a position in an international company.
