2.BOpen Letter to an EditorI had an interesting conversation with a reporter recently---one who works for you. In fact, he's one of your best reporters. He wants to leave.Your reporter gave me a copy of his resume (简历) and photocopies of six stories that he wrote for you. The headlines showed you played them proudly. With great enthusiasm, he talked about how he finds issues (问题), approaches them, and writes about them, which tells me he is one of your best. I'm sure you would hate to lose him. Surprisingly, your reporter is not unhappy. In fact, he told me he really likes his job. He has a great assignment (分工), and said you run a great paper. It would be easy for you to keep him, he said. He knows that the paper values him. He appreciates the responsibility you've given him, takes ownership of his profession, and enjoys his freedom.So why is he looking for a way out?He talked to me because he wants his editors to demand so much more of him. He wants to be pushed, challenged, coached to new heights.The reporter believes that good stories spring from good questions, but his editors usually ask how long the story will be, when it will be in, where it can play, and what the budget is.He longs for conversations with an editor who will help him turn his good ideas into great ones. He wants someone to get excited about what he's doing and to help him turn his story idea upside down and inside out, exploring the best ways to report it. He wants to be more valuable for your paper. That's what you want for him, too, isn't it?So your reporter has set me thinking.Our best hope in keeping our best reporters, copy editors, photographers, artists---everyone--is to work harder to make sure they get the help they are demanding to reach their potential. If we can't do it, they'll find someone who can.60. What does the writer think of the reporter?A. Optimistic.B. Imaginative.C. Ambitious.D. Proud.

    Which of the following is true?
    A

    Anne was lazy, sad and complained all day

    B

    The book is mainly about Anne’s school life

    C

    Anne loved life though she was in difficult time

    D

    The book has been put into nearly 30 languages


    正确答案: D
    解析:
    由原文第三段中的“In her diary, Anne wrote down her thoughts, her feelings, her hopes and her dreams for the future.”以及“I feel the beauty of nature and the goodness of the people around me”等内容可推断出生活条件虽然艰辛,但Anne仍然热爱生活。故正确答案为C项。A项表达的意思与原文意思相反,原文中第三段说到她对生活和未来仍然充满希望。B项错误,原文第三段指出,Anne的日记是关于她在纳粹集中营的生活的感悟,而不是关于她的学校生活的。原文第三段提到“It has been put into over 30 languages”,即她的日记被翻译成30多种语言,而不是D项中描述的“近30种语言”。故D项也错误。
