We don't ask simple questions. We just talk, and we talk, and we talk. We forget why we're there. (We are there to acquire inf ormation.) When we're talking, we're not acquiring anything.”Effective interviewing is a pillar of good reporting and writing. The abilityto talk comfortably with people and to persuade them to give you information is oneof the reporter's most impotant skills. Yet journalists get little or no trainingin this vital aspect of their job. Most learn by painful trial and error.To help rectify（调整）that situation, this Best Newspaper Writing brown bag is devoted to interviewing skills. Listen to winners and finalists talk about successful interviewing techniques, practise some of these tips, and explore other resources.“Somebody once wrote that there's no more seductive sentence in the English language than, ‘I want to hear your story,' and maybe they're right,” Albom said in Best Newspaper Writing 1996. “Because often you don't have to do any more than just say that.”During my reporting career, using a tape recorder taught me my most important lesson of interviewing: to shut up. It was a painful learning experience, having to listen to myself stepping on people's words, cutting them off just as they were getting enthusiastic or appeared about to make a revealing statement. There were far too many times I heard myself asking overly long and leading questions, instead of simply saying, “Why?” or “How did it happen?” or “What do you mean?” and then closing my mouth and letting people answer.1. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. How to talk with peopleB. How to ask questionsC. The experience of a reporterD. Listening―the important skill of successful interviewing2. “… there's no more seductive sentence in the English language than, ‘I want to hear yourstory,' …” implies .A. “I want to hear your story” sounds very pleasant to the earsB. as an interviewer it's important to offer chances to others to talkC. people are happy to tell you a story if you tell them “I want to hear your story”D. people are cheated to talk if they hear “I want to hear your story”3. In the last paragraph the underlined word “It” refers to “”.A. to shut up when others are talkingB. interviewing some important personsC. using a tape recorder in an interviewD. having to listen to myself stepping on people's words, cutting them off just as they weregetting enthusiastic or appeared about to make a revealing statement4. According to the passage it's safe to say .A. only through special training can a reporter learn the skill of interviewingB. a reporter should keep his mouth closed and let people talk all the timeC. interviewing plays an important role in reporting and writingD. any reporter can get useful informati on when he (she) gives an interview to people（B）She is one of the China's fifty most successful business leaders and she has been described as being “bigger than Oprah”. Well known to one billion viewers, Yang Lan is among China's most popular TV personalities. Born in Beijing in 1968, Yang Lan began her career as the host for the popular “Zheng Da TV show”. She was only 21 at the time and had just graduated from Beijing Foreign Studies University. Becoming the host of a show with an audience of 200 million at such a young age was a big challenge, but Yang Lan was ready for it and quickly became popular.Many of us would probably have stayed on to enjoy the fame and money that come with being a TV star, but Yang Lan had more important plans. She left the show after four years and went to New York City to get a Master's degree at Columbia University. Her experience abroad inspired her and she made up her mind to create a new kind of TV station for Chinese viewers. When Yang Lan returned to China, she decided to develop her interests in business. Together with her husband, she started her own media company, Sun Media.When Yang Lan grew up, TV was a new thing at the time, but Yang Lan thought that the powerful medium could be used in a different way. She wanted to make new sh ows that were both entertaining and educational. When she was studying abroad, she produced a feature show called “Horizon”. The show introduced American popular culture to Chinese viewers. Viewer s liked the first season of “Horizon”, but Yang Lan wanted to do something more serious and meaningful. The following year, she began in interviewing important people, such as Dr Henry Kissinger, and discussing social issues. Her viewers were pleased and the show became even more popular. She later devoted “Yang Lan One on One”, having interviewing more than 300 opinion leaders around the world.Note:Oprah－ Oprah Winfrey, the American TV personality.5. In the first paragraph, “bigger than Oprah” means .A. stronger and taller than OprahB. more successful and popular than OprahC. more powerful than OprahD. more important than Oprah6. In which order did the following things happen to Yang Lan?a. producing a feature show called “Horizon”b. becoming the host of a show with an audience of 200 millionc. studying for a Master's degree at Columbia Universityd. starting her own media company, Sun Mediae. studying in Beijing Foreign Studies UniversityA. e, b, c, a, dB. b, e, d, c, aC. e, b, d, c, aD. b, e, c, d, a7.

Unit 4 Making the news单元检测Ⅰ.阅读理解AHave you winterized your horse yet? Even though global warming may have made our climate more mild, many animals are still hibernating (冬眠). It's too bad that humans can't hibernate. In fact, as a species, we almost did.Apparently, at times in the past, peasants in France liked a semi-state of human hibernation. So writes Graham Robb, a British scholar who has studied the sleeping habits of the French peasants. As soon as the weather turned cold, people all over France shut themselves away and practiced the forgotten art of doing nothing at all for months on end.In line with this, Jeff Warren, a producer at CBC Radio's The Current, tells us that the way we sleep has changed fundamentally since the invention of artificial (人造的) lighting and the electric bulb.When historians began studying texts of the Middle Ages, they noticed something referred to as "first sleep", which was not clarified, though. Now scientists are telling us our ancestors most likely slept in separate periods. The business of eight hours' uninterrupted sleep is a modern invention.In the past, without the artificial light of the city to bathe in, humans went to sleep when it became dark and then woke themselves around midnight. The late night period was known as "The Watch". It was when people actually kept watch against wild animals, although many of them simply moved around or visited family and neighbours.According to some sleep researchers, a short period of insomnia (失眠) at midnight is not a disorder. It is normal. Humans can experience another state of consciousness aroundtheir sleeping, which occurs in the brief period before we fall asleep or wake ourselves in the morning. This period can be an extraordinarily creative time for some people. The impressive inventor, Thomas Edison, used this state to hit upon manyof his new ideas.Playing with your sleep rhythms can be adventurous, as anxiety may set in. Medical science doesn't help much in this case. It offers us medicines for a full night's continuous sleep, which sounds natural; however, according to Warren's theory, it is really the opposite of what we need.1. The example of the French peasants shows the fact that ___________.A. people might become lazy as a result of too much sleepB. there were signs of hibernation in human sleeping habitsC. people tended to sleep more peacefully in cold weatherD. winter was a season for people to sleep for months on end2. The late night was called "The Watch" because it was a time for people __________.A. to set traps to catch animalsB. to wake up their family and neighboursC. to remind others of the timeD. to guard against possible dangers3. What does the author advise people to do?A. Sleep in the way animals do.B. Consult a doctor if they can't sleep.C. Follow their natural sleep rhythm.D. Keep to the eight-hour sleep pattern.4. What is the author's purpose in writing the passage?A. To give a prescription for insomnia.B. To urge people to sleep less.C. To analyze the sleep pattern of modern people.D. To throw new light on human sleep.BMike Miles hadn't had a stable job in years. He bounced around from one position to another, never sure when his last day would be. Sometimes, he lost a position with less than a day's notice. This wasn't due to a poor work ethic—from arriving early to staying late, Miles says he did everything he could to build a good relationshipwith employers. But because Miles had a criminal record, he was always cut loose when it came time to let staff go.It wasn't until October 2015, nearly a decade after his release from prison, that a cousin told Miles about Lancaster Food Company, a local business that focuses on hiring people released from prison. Hoping this would clear up what felt like a thick cloud of uncertainty over his future, Miles submitted an application. He got an interview, and he then began a new job.Miles' scenario is rare in Lancaster, where the poverty rate holds steady at 30%. This figure riled Charlie Crystle, Lancaster's co-founder and CEO. Crystle was raised in Lancaster but left in 1986 to purse a college degree and later, a career in technology. He co-founded four tech companies, one of which sold for millions of dollars back in 2000.Crystle is skeptical that many of Lancaster's low-income residents can get started the way he did. He believes food production is a key way to meet former offenders who may lack a college degree. Lancaster produces products like bread. Nowadays the company is rapidly expanding; however, at just 16 full-time employees, including administration and owners, it doesn't lower the city's poverty rate.Crystle says he wants to inspire other companies to rethink their current practices and start conversations around minimum wage and employment opportunities for everyone, including ex-offenders. Dan Jurman, who chairs the city's Commission to Combat Poverty, believes that Crystle's business is a great way to make this happen. "None of us can handle these issues alone, " he said.5. The purpose of the first paragraph is to show __________ .A. a man's difficulty in living a stable lifeB. an increasingly competitive workplaceC. a decrease in employment opportunitiesD. the reason why Lancaster Food Company was founded6. What does the underlined word "riled" in Paragraph 3 most probably mean?A. Annoyed.B. Discouraged.C. Amused.D. Embarrassed.7. What words can best describe Charlie Crystle according to the text?A. Outgoing, kind and considerate.B. Wealthy but a little bit greedy.C. Humorous, diligent and ambitious.D. Successful and socially responsible.8.

ALots of students know what a marathon(马拉松赛跑) is, but perha ps they don’t know what triathlon is. The triathlon is a sport that has three parts — swimming, bicycling and running. It is not an easy sport, but a man named Joe Salter is very good at it. A few months ago, he finished a special triathlon—he juggled(抛起接住) three balls all the time during the triathlon. That is to say, he kept on throwing and catching three balls while he was swimming, riding a bicycle and running.31-year-old Joe is from Florida, the USA. He loves juggling and he started at the age of 8. Joe did well in juggling. Later, he got the idea to do a triathlon and juggle at the same time to make it more fun. Many juggling fans laughed at his idea and thought it was just a joke. But Joe didn’t give up and he kept practicing it. Because of his hard work, he made it at last.Talking about his triathlon, Joe said swimming was the hardest part. “It was difficult and complex,” he said. “I basically only used my legs, so it took quite a lot of work. Also, swimming in open water made it a little harder. It was not like in a pool. ”1. According to the writer, the common triathlon ______.A. is a difficult sportB. is more famous than the marathonC. includes the three parts and jugglingD. includes the marathon and swimming2. Joe’s triathlon was spe cial because ______ during the triathlon.A. he picked up three ballsB. he played jugglingC. he carried his bicycle on his shoulderD. he threw away all his balls3. Many juggling fans thought Joe’s idea ______.A. could not be realizedB. should not be laughed atC. should be realized as soon as possibleD. could make triathlon more exciting4. The underlined part “made it” in the 2nd paragraph probably means “______”.A. forgotB. failedC. succeededD. leftB“BANG!” the do or caused a reverberation (回声). It was just standing there, with father standing on one side, and me on the other side.We were both in great anger. “Never set foot in this house again!” stormed father. With tears welling up in my eyes, I rushed out of the flat and ran along the street.The street lights were shining, causing rather sad feelings. I wandered aimlessly.A young father who held a child in his arms walked past me. I felt as if I saw my childhood from another space: happy and carefree.But now … I don’t know whether it is because I have grown up or because dad is getting old. We differ in our ways of thinking. We are just like two people coming from two different worlds. It feels like there is an iron door between us that can never be opened. I wandered the streets, without a destination in mind. My heart was frozen on this hot summer night. As I walked on, there were fewer and fewer people on the streets, until I had only the street lights to keep me company. When I finally reached the high-rise ap artment block in which I lived, I saw that the light was still on.. I thought to myself: “Is father waiting for me, or is he still angry with me?” In fact, it was nothing. Perhaps, dad was throwing away some of his old stamps. Perhaps he thought they were useless. I never had the courage to tell him that I liked collecting stamps. All the lights were off except father’s. Dad was always like this. Maybe he didn’t know how to express himself. After shouting at me, he never showed any mercy or any moments of regret. This was how he always was. He has been a leader for so long that telling everyone else what to do has become his second nature.The light was still on. “Am I wrong?” I whispered, maybe… With the key in my hand, I was as nervous as I had ever been. At last, I decided to open the door. As soon as I opened the door, tears ran down my cheeks. I suddenly realized that the iron door that I had imagined between us did not exist at all. Love----it’s second to none.5.Which is the correct order of the following events according to the passage?a. I opened the door and entered the house.b. I ran out into the street angrily.c.

He felt uncomfortable because it was a very hot night.C. He was completely disappointed with his father.D. He was at a loss because he had nowhere to go.CFor more than twenty years scientists have been searching for signs of life on other planets. Most of these searches have been done over the radio. The hope is that someone in outer space may be trying to get in touch with us. Scientists also have sent radio and television messages on spaceships travelling through space, on the chance that someone may be receptive to such messages.Scientists are using powerful radio telescopes to listen to signals from about 1,000 stars, all within 100 light ye ars of Earth. In addition, they scan the entire sky to “listen” for radio messages from more distant stars. Using a computer, they will be able to monitor more than eight channels at a time. Scientists are looking for any signal that stands out from the background noise.Of the 200 billion stars in the Milky Way Galaxy (银河星系), scientists find that five percent are like our sun. Perhaps half of them have a planet like Earth. Such a planet would be a reasonable distance from the star for temperatures to be right for the evolution (进化) of life. Based on the inhabitable (that can be lived in) planets in our Galaxy, most scientists agree that chances are likely that one or more of these planets support some life.However, many scientists wonder whether intelligent life exists on other planets. Some believe that twenty years of searching without any intelligible messages shows that no one is out there. They say that the evolution of intelligence comparable to ours is unlikely.Other scientists believe that our search hasn't been long enough to rule out the possibility that intelligent life exists in our Galaxy. Although our sun family is only about five billion years old, our Galaxy is about 20 billion years old. In that case, some scientists think that it is likely that civilization much more advanced than ours have developed. Perhaps these civilizations send us no signals, perhaps we have not recognized the signals they have sent us. If we hope to find intelligent life, these scientists believe that we have to keep looking.9.The first two paragraphs in the text are mainly about ________ scientists are looking for signs of life on other planets.A. whenB. whyC. whereD. how10.According to the text, how many planets in our Galaxy might be inhabitable?A. 5 billion.B. 10 billion.C. 15 billion.D. 200 billion.11.Why do some scientists think there might be more advanced civilizations on other planets?A. They are good at observing everything in the sky.B. Some planets in our Galaxy are much younger than Earth.C. They have been to some of the other planets in our Galaxy.D. Some planets in our Galaxy are much older than Earth.12.It can be learned from the text that ________.A. the sun is one of the oldest planets in our GalaxyB. some scientists think that we should continue the searchC. scientists don't believe that there might be life on other planetsD. most scientists believe that there is intelligent life on other planetsDIf you're ever apart from your children, a new study says just talking on the phone will help just as much as a hug.If you're a parent who spends long hours on the job, you probably feel sorry for spending so much time away from your kids. But the results of a new study show that a mother's voice alone can be just as comforting to an anxious child as physical contact .In an experiment, researchers from the University of Wisconsin Madison asked a group of girls between the ages of 7 and 12 to solve math problems in front of judges — a stressful situation for anyone. Before the girls were set to give their answers, the researchers measured their levels of two hormones (荷尔蒙): cortisol, which goes up during stressful periods, and oxytocin, the "love" hormone, which goes down at the same time.After the girls finished the problems, some of them got to meet up with their mothers right away. The moms came in and hugged the girls. Another group of the girls didn't see their mothers, but received phone calls from them, in which their mothers told them how well they'd done. The final group had no contact with their mothers, but instead watched an animal movie, March of the Penguins.Finally, the girls' hormone levels were measured again. Although the movie was interesting, it did nothing to reduce the children's anxiety — but, surprisingly, both the physical contact and phone calls from their mothers had the same effect on reducing the girls' stress levels.So, no matter how old you are, if you're feeling stressed about something in your life, a phone call to Mom might be just the key to help you feel better.13. If a girl is under stress, .A. she can't solve math problemsB. she will have high levels of hormoneC. oxytocin will remain at a high levelD. cortisol will go up with oxytocin down14. From the passage, we can infer that .A. it is easy for girls to solve math problemsB. the girls who had watched the movie remained anxiousC. mothers should hug their kids as often as possibleD. older girls have higher cortisol than younger ones15. What's the main idea of the passage?A. Mother's voice can comfort her anxious kids.B. Mothers should often hug their kids.C. Mothers should spend enough time caring about their kids.D. Scientists discovered why kids become stressed when having tests.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
