你认为作为一名记者最需要的品质是什么？是合作意识还是写作技巧？
To be a journalistYou also need good written and oral communication skills and must have a crisp concise writing style—writing essays are not good evidence for this! They will expect you to have a good knowledge of current affairs and an inquisitive nature，and to be flexible—especially with regard to working hours.Many demands can be made on your time, so how experienced are you in putting in extra hours?Two key qualities of journalists are an inquisitive nature and the ability to ask the right questions at interview! The best questions to ask are those that you really would like to know the answers to, rather than those you can find in books on interview skills.If you research a company well enough, you will find a number of questions naturally arising that you wish to be answered.
You should, though, concentrate on questions that show your interest in, and motivation to do, the job itself, rather than the rewards it will bring.教师用书独具演示●教学目标

新闻是对最近发生的事实的报道。具体地讲，新闻是一种客观存在的事实。这种事实在时间上是最近发生的；在内容上是新鲜的；在价值上是大家所关心和需要的，并且需要通过新闻工具和其他各种手段进行报道传播。其最大的特点是真实。
新闻报道，记录的是发生过的事情，因此凡涉及到此报道的具体内容，应用一般过去时表达。英文新闻报道通常包括下面四个部分：
1．标题：标题是新闻的题目，是编辑对最有新闻价值的内容的浓缩、概括。为了撷取新闻要点、诠释新闻意义、吸引读者阅读，好的标题应该简洁明了。如：
①A Terrible Earthquake
②A Sandstorm Hit the Northwest
③China—The First Spacewalk2．导语：导语是消息的开头的第一段或第一句话，它扼要地揭示出消息的核心内容。如：
①September 29, 2011 saw China's first step towards building a space station.
②On October 23, 2011 a terrible earthquake struck the east of Turkey.3．主体：主体是消息的主要部分，它用充足的事实表现主题，是对导语内容的进一步展开和阐释。主体要根据不同内容运用适当句型对新闻细节进行描述，如：
①The earthquake destroyed nearly everything in Wenchuan county, Sichuan Province.
②They had to put up tents because it was raining hard.
③The government sent 3,000 firefighters and policemen there to help them move to a safe place.2012年4月29日上午10点到11点，你们全校师生积极参与了阳光体育活动。

写作意图和态度倾向推断题
写作意图推断题要求考生根据文章的论述，揣测作者的写作意图及运用某种写作手法的目的。作者一般不直接陈述自己的意图，而是通过文章所提供的事实，客观地使读者信服某种想法或观点。
态度倾向推断题考查考生是否了解文章、作者或文中人物对某事物所持观点或态度。要求考生具有在正确理解文意的基础上，对观点或态度倾向进行分析、识别的能力。(2012·安徽高考·A)
Welcome to one of the largest collections of footwear(鞋类)in the world that will make you green with envy.Here at the Footwear Museum，you can see exhibits(展品)from all over the world.You can find out about shoes worn by everyone from the Ancient Egyptians to pop stars.Room 1
The celebrity(名人)footwear section is probably the most popular in the entire museum.Started in the 1950s there is a wide variety of shoes and boots belonging to everyone from queens and presidents to pop stars and actors！Most visitors find the celebrities' choice of footwear extremely interesting.
Room 2
Most of our visitors are amazed and shocked—by the collection of“special purpose”shoes on exhibition here at the Museum of Footwear.For example，there are Chinese shoes made of silk that were worn by women to tie their feet firmly to prevent them from growing too much!Room 3
As well as shoes and boots the museum also exhibits shoe-shaped objects.The variety is unbelievable.For example，there is a metal lamp that resembles a pair of shoes，and Greek wine bottles that look like legs!
The Footwear Library
People come from all over the world to study in our excellent footwear library.Designers and researchers come here to look up information on anything and everything related to the subject of footwear.59．The purpose of the text is to get more people to .
A．do research B．design shoes
C．visit the museum D．follow celebrities
【解析】 C。写作意图推断题。根据文章开头“Welcome to...”可以看出本文是广告类文章。通过介绍博物馆的具体信息来达到吸引更多游客的目的。解答此类题型时，考生要注意以下几点：
①掌握作者的观点、态度，不可用自己的观点态度取代作者的观点态度，也要区分开作者的态度和作者引用的别人的态度。
②分析文章中的全部信息，捕捉信息的本质。当作者的态度没有明确提出时，要学会根据作者使用词语的褒贬性去判断作者的态度。
③注意词的本意和与之有联系的其他意义，领悟字面以外的含义。(2010·天津高考) To err is human. To blame the other guy is even more human.
Common sense is not all that common.
Why tell the truth when you can come up with a good excuse?
...
And what is wrong with a society that thinks that making up a good excuse is like creating a work of art? One of the common problems with making excuses is that people, especially young people, get the idea that it's okay not to be totally honest all the time. There is a corollary(直接推论) to that：if a good excuse is“ good” even if it isn't honest, then where is the place of the truth?
54. What is the author's opinion about a good excuse?
A. Making a good excuse is sometimes a better policy.
B. Inventing a good excuse needs creative ideas.
C. A good excuse is as rewarding as honesty.
D. Bitter truth is better than a good excuse.【解析】 D。作者态度推断题。根据最后一段“And what is wrong with a society that thinks that making up a good excuse is like creating a work of art...then where is the place of the truth？”可知，作者认为编造借口、理由并不可取，这会让人们丢掉诚实，忽略真理，说明作者并不赞成这种做法，故选D。综合检测(四)

Ⅲ.阅读理解(共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分)
A
Newspapers are not nearly as popular today as they were in the past.There are not many people who seriously read a newspaper every day.Most people read only the sports pages，the advice or the gossip columns, the comics, and perhaps the classified advertisements.Most people don't take time to read the real news.They attempt to catch the readers'interest with pictures and exciting headlines.These techniques are used on the front page because it is the first thing you see when you pick up the paper.The first page attracts attention and encourages the readers to look through the rest of the paper.This is why editors always look for a good first page story and a headline to make them stop and look.If the headline is horrible enough or frightening enough or wild enough, perhaps they will not go on to read the front page anymore.They may read the headlines, but that is all, then they turn to the sports page, or comics, or advertisements.
It seems that people do not want the news from a newspaper anymore.They say they get the news on the television now.More people watch television news because it is easier and more interesting than reading a newspaper.What about you? Do you read news from a newspaper? Do you think it is easier to get the news from television? Or don't you care about news at all？Would you mind if there were no news?
31．According to the passage, newspapers are .
A．more popular today
B．less popular today
C．as popular as before
D．getting more and more popular
【解析】 细节理解题。关键是理解文章的第一句话“Newspapers are not nearly as popular today as they were in the past.”，由此可知报纸的地位已不如从前。

32．We can know from the passage that the newspaper editors think the important part of the newspaper is .
A．the front page
B．the sports page
C．the headlines
D．the classified advertisements

【答案】 A
33．According to the passage, most people read all of the following except .
A．the sports page B．comics
C．advertisements D．the real news
【解析】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段第三句“Most people read only the sports pages，the advice or the gossip columns，the comics，and perhaps the classified advertisements.”和第四句“Most people don't take time to read the real news.”可以找到答案。
【答案】 D
34．The author's attitude toward newspapers is .
A．sympathetic B．critical
C．negative D．undetermined
【解析】 主旨归纳题。由文章的第一句话可知作者对报纸今非昔比的状况似乎有点感慨，作者认为报纸应该受到人们更多的关注。
【答案】 A
B
Sometimes people add to what they say even when they don't talk.Gestures are the “silent language” of every culture.We point a finger or move another part of the body to show what we want to say.It is important to know the body language of every country or we may be misunderstood.
In the United States，people greet each other with a handshake in a formal introduction.The handshake must be firm.If the handshake is weak, it is a sign of weakness or unfriendliness.Friends may place a hand on the other's arm or shoulder.Some people, usually women，greet a friend with a hug.
Space is important to Americans.When two people talk to each other, they usually stand about two and a half feet away and at an angle, so they are not facing each other directly.Americans get uncomfortable when a person stands too close.They will move back to have their space.If Americans touch another person by accident，they say, “Pardon me.”or“Excuse me.”
Americans like to look at the other person in the eyes when they are talking.If you don't do so, it means you are bored，hiding something，or are not interested.But when you stare at someone，it is not polite.
For Americans, thumbs-up means yes, very good，or well done.Thumbs-down means the opposite.To call a waiter，raise one hand to head level or above.To show you want the check，make a movement with your hands as if you are signing a piece of paper.It is all right to point at things but not at people with the hand and index finger (食指)．Americans shake their index finger at children when they scold them and pat them on the head when they admire them.
Learning a culture's body language is sometimes confusing.If you don't know what to do, the safest thing to do is to smile.
35．From the first paragraph we can learn that .
A．gestures don't mean anything while talking
B．gestures can help us to express ourselves
C．we can learn a language well without body language
D．only American people can use gestures
【解析】 推理判断题。从第一段首句“Sometimes people add to what they say even when they don't talk.”可知，gesture language有自身的意义，能帮助我们理解，只能选择B项。
【答案】 B
36．If you are introduced to a stranger from the USA，you should .
A．greet him with a hug
B．place a hand on his shoulder
C．shake his hand firmly
D．shake his hand weakly
【解析】 推理判断题。从第二段中“In the United States，people greet each other with a handshake in a formal introduction.The handshake must be firm.”可获知，初次见面的时候，应该紧紧的握手。
【答案】 C
37．In the United States, people often .
A．show their friendship by touching each other
B．show their friendship by glancing at each other
C．say“Pardon me ”to each other when they are talking
D．get uncomfortable when you sit close to them
【解析】 细节理解题。从三、四段可知，A、B、C三个选项本身就是错误的。
【答案】 D
38．When your friend gives you the thumbs-up, he, in fact， .
A．shows his rudeness to you
B．shows his anger to you
C．expresses his satisfaction to you
D．expresses his worries about you
【解析】 推理判断题。从第五段首句“For Americans，thumbs-up means yes，very good，or well done.”可知。
【答案】 C
C
The sun has been the inspiration for hundreds of songs，but now scientists have discovered that the star at the centre of our solar system produces its own music.Astronomers at the University of Sheffield have managed to record for the first time in the world the eerie musical harmonies produced by the magnetic field (磁场) in the outer atmosphere of the sun.
They found that huge coronal loops (日冕环) that have been observed spinning away from the outer layer of the sun's atmosphere vibrate (振动) like strings on a musical instrument.Using satellite pictures of these loops, which can be over 60,000 miles long, the scientists were able to recreate the sound by turning the visible vibrations into noises and speeding up the frequency so that people can hear them.
Professor Robertus von Fáy-Siebenbürgen said, “It was strangely beautiful and exciting to hear these noises for the first time from such a large and powerful source.It is providing us with a new way of learning about the sun and giving us a new insight into the physics about the sun's outer layers where temperatures reach millions of de grees.”
The coronal loops are thought to be involved in the production of solar flares that throw magnetic energy out into space，creating a phenomenon known as space weather.When the sun's activity, and thus solar flare production, increases，the resulting “space storm” can have severe results here on earth, destroying electronic equipment, overheating power networks and damaging satellites.Professor Fáy-Siebenbürgen said that studying the“music of the sun” would provide new ways of understanding and predicting solar flares before they happen.
Professor Fáy-Siebenbürgen's research has been shown as the University of Sheffield sets up a new project, called Project Sunshine, aimed at finding new ways to control the power of the sun.“These loops are vibrating like the strings on a guitar.Over time the waves die away and that is telling us new things about the physics in the sun's atmosphere，”he said.
【语篇解读】 太阳其实也会“唱歌”。英国科学家首次记录下了人耳可辨的太阳外层大气发出的声音，这种类似琴弦拨动的声音对人类进一步认识、总结太阳的活动规律很有帮助。
39．The underlined word“eerie” in Paragraph 1 can be replaced by“ ”．
A．common B．worrying
C．mysterious D．familiar
【解析】 词义猜测题。根据句中“for the first time in the world”可推断，能够录到太阳的歌声应该令人感到神秘，故答案为C。
【答案】 C
40．As a matter of fact, the music of the sun .
A．can help people know more about the sun
B．can do great harm to the earth
C．is a sort of common space weather
D．will cause huge space storms
【解析】 推理判断题。根据第四段“...studying the ‘music of the sun’would provide new ways of understanding and predicting solar flares before they happen”可推断，答案为A。
【答案】 A
41．What's the purpose of Project Sunshine?
A．To explore how to make the best use of sunlight.
B．To further study why the sun produces its own music.
C．To find effective ways of preventing the harm caused by sun storms.
D．To learn more about how sun storms die away over time.
【解析】 细节理解题。根据末段“...aimed at finding new ways to control the power of the sun”可知，答案为C。

D
Emily Elizabeth Dickinson was born on December 10,1830 in the quiet community of Amherst, Massachusetts，the second daughter of Edward and Emily Norcross Dickinson.Emily, Austin (her elder brother) and her younger sister Lavinia were raised in a quiet, reserved family headed by their authoritative father Edward.Throughout Emily's life, her mother was not “emotionally accessible”， the absence of which might have caused some of Emily's strange behaviors.
The Dickinson family was famous in Amherst.Unlike her father, Emily did not enjoy the popularity and excitement of public life in Amherst, and she began to withdraw.Emily.did not fit in with her father's religion in Amherst, and her father began to monitor the books she read because of their potential to draw her away from the faith.
Emily had a good education and attended the Amherst Academy.Although Emily never married, she had several important relationships with a select few.In her early twenties, Emily began to write poetry seriously.Fortunately，Emily met two very influential men that would be sources of inspiration and guidance: Charles Wadsworth and Thomas Wentworth Higginson.Charles Wadsworth, aged 41, had a powerful effect on Emily's life and her poetry.On her trip to Philadelphia, Emily met Wadsworth, who was to become her “dearest earthly friend”．Wadsworth, like Dickinson, was a solitary (喜欢独处的), romantic person that Emily could trust in when writing her poetry.Most importantly，it is widely believed that Emily had a great love for Wadsworth even though he was married.
On April 15, 1862 she met Thomas Wentworth Higginson，a famous literary man and sent four poems to ask for his advice about publication.Although Higginson advised Dickinson against publishing her poetry, he did see the creative talent in her poetry.As a result, only seven of her poems were published in her lifetime.On May 15, 1886 Emily took her last breath at 56, leaving behind nearly 2,000 poems.

Two thirds of the singles looking for love in Britain turned to the Internet last year，according to figures made in public yesterday.Special sites offer introductions to smokers，to Roman Catholics，tall people，beautiful people，frequent flyers and vegans(素食者)．Technology has brought about a great change in the dating game.
A survey by Parship，a British branch of Europe's largest dating service with more than 1.5 million members，says that 65 percent of the 5.4 million Britons looking for a relationship used online dating services last year.
A spokeswoman for Relate，the relationship advisor，confirmed that a figure of two thirds feel it all right.“Doing it online allows people quite a lot of privacy，because they can do a bit of quiet research and look around from the comfort of their own home.You don't have to meet a middleman or go to an actual dating agency office，which takes a lot of courage，” she said.
There are more than 100 independent online dating agencies in Britain.Parship says that 50 percent of single people believe they will meet a suitable partner through the Internet，up from 35 percent six months ago.
Mary Balfour，the founder，says that the Internet has changed the dating industry completely.“It's like a return to old?fashioned love letters，” she said.“You don't base your initial judgment on how someone looks or what his or her figure is like.You e?mail or talk before you actually see each other.Everybody you know who is single these days has at least had a good look at a dating website，introduction agency or personal ad.They have to，because all the old matchmaking institutions have gone.People work harder，settle down later and live more isolated lives.They're much more likely to end the day with a DVD and a can of beer than by going to a village dance.”
