【四川省凉山州高中毕业班第二次诊断性】D

One hot summer I was traveling down the freeway on a day trip to Los Angeles. During my journey down the highway, another motorist suddenly started cutting into my lane. Being in the far right lane, my car was forced onto the shoulder of the road. Being an experienced driver, I steered my car back onto the highway, the motorist drove away without saying anything.

While I wasn’t very happy with the person for cutting in front of me, I decided to consider it an honest mistake—a lack of attention to the lane change or a driver lost in thought. It certainly could not have been done on purpose. The car sped away after cutting in front of me and was soon out of sight.

After a while, I caught up with the same motorist on the side of the road. He was an elderly gentleman who was walking along the side of the freeway on this hot day. With his car stopped on the side of the road and the nearest services at least twenty miles away, I decided to stop and see what the problem was.

The man’s car had a flat tire, and while he had a spare tire, he didn’t have a jack. I decided to help him and allowed him to sit in my air–conditioned car while I changed his tire. Fifteen minutes later, I was hot, sweaty and dirty, but I did feel good after doing something for someone.

How to Do Man-on-the Street Interviews

The man-on-the-street interview is an interview in which a reporter hits the streets with a cameraman to interview people on the spot. 1. But with these tips, your first man-on-the-street interview experience can be easy.

• When your boss or professor sends you out to do man-on-the –street interviews for a story, think about the topic and develop a list of about ten general questions relating to it. For example, if your topic is about environmental problems in America, you might ask, “Why do you think environmental protection is important in America?” 2.

• Hit the streets with confidence. 3. Say, “Excuse me, I work for XYZ News, and I was wondering if you could share your opinion about this topic,” This is a quick way to get people to warm up to you.

• Move on to the next person if someone tells you she is not interested in talking on camera. Don’t get discouraged.

• 4. Each interview that you get on the street shouldn’t be longer than ten minutes. As soon as you get the answer you need, move on to the next person. Make sure that as you go from interview to interview, you are getting a variety of answers. If everyone is giving you the same answer, you won’t be able to use it. A safe number of interviews to conduct is about six to ten. 5.

• If your news station or school requires interviewees to sign release forms to appear on the air, don’t leave work without them.

A. Limit your time.

B. As you approach people, be polite.

C. If you don’t own a camera, you can buy one.

D. For new reporters, this can seem like a challenging task.

E. To get good and useful results, ask them the same question.

F. That number of interviews should give you all the answers you need.

G. With a question like this, you will get more than a ‘Yes” or “No” reply.

In 1978, I was 18 and was working as a nurse in a small town about 270 km away from Sydney, Australia. I was looking forward to having five fays off from duty. Unfortunately, the only one train a day back to my home in Sydney had already left. So I thought I’d hitch a ride (搭便车).

I waited by the side of the highway for three hours but no one stopped for me. Finally, a man walked over and introduced himself as Gordon. He said that although he couldn’t give me a lift, I should come back to his house for lunch. He noticed me standing for hours in the November heat and thought I must be hungry. I was doubtful as a young girl but he assured （使…放心）me I was safe, and he also offered to help me find a lift home afterwards. When we arrived at his house, he made us sandwiches. After lunch, he helped me find a lift home.

Twenty-five years later, in 2003, while I was driving to a nearby town one day, I saw an elderly man standing in the glaring heat, trying to hitch a ride. I thought it was another chance to repay someone for the kindness I’d been given decades earlier. I pulled over and picked him up. I made him comfortable on the back seat and offered him some water.

After a few moments of small talk, the man said to me, “You haven’t changed a bit, even your red hair is still the same.” I couldn’t remember where I’d met him. He then told me he was the man who had given me lunch and helped me find a lift all those years ago. It was Gordon.

3.The reason why the author offered a lift to the elderly man was that            .

A. she realized he was Gordon

B. she had known him for decades

C. she was going to the nearby town

D. she wanted to repay the kindness she once got

4.What does the author want to tell the readers through the story?

I woke up the other day when hearing a phone call from taxi driver who had my friend's cell phone.My friend has apparently left it in the cab the night before.The driver had called the others,but I was the first one who answered the phone.It was a rainy morning,that for cab drivers is a very busy time.The cab driver asked him where he could give the cell phone for me.I asked him to go to the place where I lived.Then I quickly jumped out of bed,put on my cloth and told the cab driver I'd meet him on the corner of the street.

When I met the taxi driver,I thanked him for have such a kind heart.My friend recent moved here from another country and I can imagine how importance his cell phone is to him!

At a supermarket,two women arc shopping.One is a stay-at-home housewife who loves to create delicious masterpieces.The other is a supervisor at an advertising agency.The two ladies stop in the frozen foods section."I'm so tired,"sighs the professional woman."I don't know what to do about supper."Her friend suggests,"What about a microwave dinner?"The weary professional sighs,"I don't feel like cooking tonight."

It is true that Americans have cakes for breakfast,sandwiches for lunch and instant dinners.Most Americans enjoy the convenience of prepackaged meals that can be served in 10 minutes or less.However,if you think American cooking means throwing the packaged contents into the microwave,think again.Many Americans recognize the value of cooking skills,admitting that there's nothing better than a good home-cooked meal.

For those who need guidance in their cooking,recipes are lifesavers.Recipes list all the ingredients for a dish,the amount of each to use,and a description of how to put them together.Most good cooks have a shelf full of cookbooks ranging from locally published recipe collections to national bestsellers.Magazines devoted to home management,are full of tasty selections.Friends often increase their recipe collection by passing around their favorites cards.

For experienced cooks,recipes are merely references.They often make adjustments,depending on the people they need to serve,the available ingredients and their personal taste.Some cooks prefer instead to depend on their feelings to cook the right flavors.

Of course,as a "land of immigrants,"America has imported all varieties of cooking.Most good cooks in America are "fluent" in several cooking "dialects": Mexican,Italian,Chinese and traditional American style,just to name a few. But whatever the dialect,cooking is a language everyone understands.
