3．I first met Paul Newman in 1968，when George Roy Hill，the director of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid，introduced us in New York City．When the studio didn't want me for the film-it wanted somebody as well known as Paul-he stood up for me．I don't know how many people would have done that；they would have listened to their agents or the studio powers．
      The friendship that grew out of the experience of making that film and The Sting four years later had its root in the fact that although there was an age difference，we both came from a tradition of theater and live TV．We were respectful of craft（技艺）and focused on digging into the characters we were going to play．Both of us had the qualities and virtues that are typical of American actors：humorous，aggressive，and making fun of each other-but always with an underlying affection．Those were also at the core （核心）of our relationship off the screen．
      We shared the belief that if you're fortunate enough to have success，you should put something back-he with his Newman's Own food and his Hole in the Wall camps for kids who are seriously ill，and me with Sundance and the institute and the festival．Paul and I didn't see each other all that regularly，but sharing that brought us together．We supported each other financially and by showing up at events．
      I last saw him a few months ago．He'd been in  and out of the hospital．He and I both knew what the deal was，and we didn't talk about it．Ours was a relationship that didn't need a lot of words．

18．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 sport．（31）D 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？"（32）G
●Hit the streets with confidence． （33）B 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．
●（34）AEach 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．（35）F
●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．
7．Just 50years ago Manx seemed to be on the point of disappearing．"If you spoke Manx in a pub on the island in the 1960s，it was considered provocative（挑衅的） and you were likely to find yourself in a fight，"recalls Brian Stowell，a 76-year-old islander who has written a Manx-language novel，The Vampire Murders，and presents a radio show on Manx Radio spreading the language every Sunday．
The language itself is similar to the Gaelic tongues spoken in the island's neighbours，Ireland and Scotland．A century ago，"Moghrey mie"would have been commonly heard instead of good morning on the island．
"In the 1860s there were thousands of Manx people who couldn't speak English，"says Stowell．"But only a century later it was considered to be so backwards to speak the language that there were stories of Manx speakers getting stones thrown at them in the towns．"I learnt it myself from one of the last surviving native speakers back in the 1950s．"
Recession（经济衰退） in the mid 19th Century forced many Manx residents to leave the island to seek work in England．And parents were not willing to pass the language down through the generations，with many believing that to have Manx as a first language would affect job opportunities overseas．
There was a fall in the language．By the early 1960s there were perhaps as few as 200who spoke the tongue．The last native speaker，Ned Maddrell，died in 1974．Unesco（联合国教科文组织） pronounced the language died out in the 1990s．
Now there is even a Manx language primary school in which all subjects are taught in the language，with more than 60pupils attending．Manx is also taught in other schools across the island．
9．What does"Moghrey mie"mean according to the passage？D
A．All the best．
B．Congratulations．
C．Never mind．
D．Good morning．
10．Many Manx people went to England toC．

B．teach English     
C．look for jobs     
D．attend college
11．What is the passage mainly about？A
A．The Manx language．
B．The life of Manx people
C．The Manx island．
D．The Manx language school．
4．College graduation brings both the satisfaction of academic achievement and the expectation of a well-paid job．But for 6，000 graduates at San Jose State this year，there's uncertainty as they enter one of the worst job markets in decades．Ryan Stewart has a freshly-minted（新兴的） degree in religious studies，but no job prospects．
"You look at everybody's parents and neighbors，and they're getting laid off and don't have jobs，"said Stewart．"Then you look at the young people just coming into the workforce…it's just scary．"
When the class of 2003 entered college，the future never looked brighter．But in the four years they've been here，the world outside has changed dramatically．
"Those were the exciting times，lots of dot-com opportunities，exploding offers，students getting top dollar with lots of benefits，"said Cheryl Allmen-Vinnidge of the San Jose State Career Center．"Times have changed．It's a new market．"
Cheryl Allmen-Vinnidge ought to know．She runs the San Jose State Career Center，sort of a crossroads between college and the real world．Allmen-innidge says students who do find jobs after college have done their homework．
"The typical graduate who does have a job offer started working on it two years ago．They've postured（定位）themselves well during the summer．They've had several internships（实习），"she said．And they've majored in one of the few fields that are still hot，like chemical engineering，accounting，or nursing，where average starting salaries have actually increased over last year．Other popular fields （like information systems management，computer science，and political science） have seen big declines in starting salaries．
Ryan Stewart （he had hoped to become a teacher） may just end up going back to school．"I'd like to teach college some day and that requires more schooling，which would be great in a bad economy，"he said．
To some students，a degree may not be a ticket to instant wealth． For now，they can only hope its value will increase over time．

D．go back to school
55．What does the underlined sentence"To some students，a degree may not be a ticket to instant wealth"in the last paragraph mean？B
A．Having a college degree does not provide travel discounts．
B．A college degree doesn't promise a person a high-paying job．
C．Most students with degrees will be able to find jobs．
D．The best way to become wealthy isn't to get a college degree．
