    Just then,the two policemen reappeared from the house,half-carrying a white—faced man,who could hardly walk. There was blood all over him.

    “My God,”said Joanne,“how did he get in there? And how did you know he was there?”

My friend, Emma Daniels, spent the summer of 1974 traveling in Israel. During her month long stay in Jerusalem she often went to a cafe called Chocolate Soup. It was run by two men, one of whom—Alex—used to live in Montreal. One morning when Emma went in for coffee, while chatting with her new friend Alex, she mentioned that she had just finished the book she was reading and had nothing else to read. Alex said he had a wonderful book she might like, and that he’d be happy to lend it to her. As he lived just above the cafe, he quickly ran up to get it.

Emma had never read it, nor had she ever bought a copy. But, when she opened it up, she was floored to see her own name and address inside the cover, in her own handwriting. It turned out that the summer before, at a concert back in Montreal, Emma had met a Californian who was in town visiting friends. They decided to exchange addresses, but neither of them had any paper. The man opened up a book he was carrying in his backpack (背包) and asked Emma to write her name and address inside. When he returned to California, he 1eft the book behind in Montreal, and his friend Alex kept it. When Alex later moved to Jerusalem, he took the book along.

Oprah Winfrey, the queen of American daytime talk TV, is considered one of the most powerful women in the world.Now, after 25 years’ hosting The Oprah Winfrey Show, the star has announced she is calling it quits.
According to the Los Angeles Times, the move “signals the beginning of the decline for the daytime talk show.” More women are working full-time jobs, and people are turning to cable (有线电视) and pre-recorded shows for their entertainment.
It may be that Oprah isn’t quitting so much as moving on.She has created the Oprah Winfrey Network (OWN), and will most likely move her show to the network.If audiences around the world need Oprah, they well know where to look.
Oprah Winfrey was born to a single teenage mother in a small town in rural Mississippi, US.As a child, she lived with poverty and abuse.But she got a job at a local radio station, where her honesty, emotional style won her many fans.She quickly rose through the ranks of radio and television before launching her own production company and starting her own show.
Oprah’s talk show was not the first of its kind, but it quickly became the best and most popular.It made talk shows popular, and others jumped in to start similar shows.But while other talk shows turned ugly, featuring guests who argued and attacked each other with chairs, Oprah rose above the mess
“Part of her power lies in the fact that her life story resonates (产生共鸣) with her audience, as a kind of version of the American dream,” writes Kevin Connolly, a reporter with the BBC.
She became a star because of the way she opened up about her problems to her audience.She shared her own struggles with relationships and weight.She focused on self-help.Connolly believes “something in her honesty and her sometimes painfully emotional directness struck home with a certain type of American”.
【小题1】Which of the following statements is NOT true?

A.The stop of Oprah’s show reflects the decrease of audience.
B.Oprah hosted her show for about 25 years.
C.American talk show was pioneered by Oprah.
D.Oprah used to be a radio presenter.

B.Oprah’s show stood out with her unique style.
C.Oprah turned a deaf ear to other people’s quarrel.
D.Oprah’s fame rose because lots of people watch her show.
【小题3】From Kevin Connolly, we know people like Oprah’s show for all the reasons EXCEPT ________.
A.Oprah always shares people’s life stories in her show
B.the audiences are touched by Oprah’s honesty and frankness
C.Oprah’s life story reflects the truth of American dream
D.some audiences are inspired by Oprah’s show
