The first time I saw Jim Wooten I really understood him. He was a great TV news reporter. When he was reporting in Rwanda, one heartbreaking moment made a deep impression on me. When the camera showed all of the children who were dying, suffered from terrible diseases, Jim ended his piece by saying that when he got home, the first thing he was going to do was to put his arms around his own children. Then I realized that he was different, that he didn’t fall into any of the modern television-news tricks, that he was not giving us any awful, artificial(假的) television-journalist reports out of(出于) pity. Instead, I was watching a real reporter with a gift(天賦) for both words and slight differences.

Then I read his book, We Are All the Same, about his friendship with Xolani Nkosi, a South African boy who became the international spokesman for AIDS(艾滋病). It is about the friendship between Wooten and a black child who was ten years old and already dying of AIDS. It is also a book about a great teacher and his student. But the teacher-the one with real wisdom and understanding about life-is the little boy, not the journalist. And, finally, it’s about a love story of Gail Johnson, Nkosi’s white mother who does her best to save the boy, and their love for each other. When reading the book, I felt touched from time to time.
小題1:How did Jim Wooten feel when he saw the dying children in Rwanda?
__________________________________________________________________.
小題2:What would an ordinary journalist do on TV when he saw these dying children?
_________________________________________________________________.
小題3:How did Jim end his piece when he saw the dying children in Rwanda?
_________________________________________________________________.
小題4:Who is the teacher in the book, the little boy or the journalist?
_________________________________________________________________.
小題5:Why did Nkosi’s mother do everything possible to save the boy?
_________________________________________________________________.
小題6:What’s the writer’s attitude to Jim Wooten? How do you know that?
_________________________________________________________________.

小題1:He felt very sad./He was heartbroken.
小題2:He would give us some awful, artificial television-journalist reports out of pity./He would fall into some of the modern television-news tricks.
小題3:By saying that when he got home, the first thing he was going to do was to put his arms around his own children.
小題4:The little boy. (1分題)
小題5:Because she loved the boy./Because the boy was dying of AIDS.
小題6:He respected Jim./He admired Jim. The writer wrote/mentioned that Jim was a great TV news reporter.(3分題)

試題分析:短文大意:這篇是關(guān)于一名偉大的電視新聞記者吉姆伍滕的文章。他在盧旺達(dá)的報道,給作者留下了深刻的印象。
小題1:此題問“Jim Wooten看到盧旺達(dá)面臨死亡孩子時的感覺”,所以答案需要填一個表達(dá)當(dāng)時感覺的形容詞,答案可以根據(jù)第一段內(nèi)容進行提煉,所以答案可以為He felt very sad./He was heartbroken.等。
小題2:此題問“如何做普通的新聞工作者”,在文章第一段中講述Jim Wooten的做法跟一般不同,所以需要將其中的否定句改成肯定句。即He would give us some awful, artificial television-journalist reports out of pity./He would fall into some of the modern television-news tricks.
小題3:此題問“方式”,回答時一般需要用介詞by來引導(dǎo)。根據(jù)文章第一段“Jim ended his piece by saying that when he got home, the first thing he was going to do was to put his arms around his won children.”所以本題答案為By saying that when he got home, the first thing he was going to do was to put his arms around his won children.
小題4:此題的問題是“選擇疑問句”,這也是整篇文章相對簡單的一題(1分題),根據(jù)文章第二段中內(nèi)容“But the teacher-the one with real wisdom and understanding about life—is the little boy, not the journalist.”,可知本題答案為The little boy。
小題5:此題問的是“為什么盡力救這個孩子”,文章第二段最后講述的是“a love story”,所以答案可以是Because she loved the boy./Because the boy was dying of AIDS.
小題6:此題是一個開放題。首先問的是作者對Jim Wooten的態(tài)度,即崇拜或尊敬Her espected/love/admired him. 原因也可以從文章中找到,如:He was a great TV news reporter。

Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf is a Chinese animated television series about a group of goats living on Green Grassland and a clumsy wolf who wants to hunt them. It is aired on over 40 local TV stations including Hong Kong’s TVB, BTV Animation Channel and CCTV. The following are the main characters and their characteristics.
Characters
Characteristics

Slowy
Slowy is an adult goat, serving as the elder and head of the lamb village. His character design is somewhat based on Albert Einstein, with wild frizzy hair, a mustache, and a pair of glasses. He is a scientist and develops machines to protect their school though he is slower than a snail and uses a walking stick. In addition, when he thinks too hard, his head will begin to grow leaves.

Weslie
Weslie is the main character of the series. He wears a blue ribbon around his neck with a bell. Weslie is positive, observant, clever and always supportive of his friends. He takes a leadership role in his class and among his peers and is Slowy’s assistant. And in general, he is often the first to feel danger and see through Wolffy’s plans.

Paddi
Paddi hates working and likes to sleep. He is often the first caught by Wolffy. Paddi is the cleverest goat of all of them too, although this is seldom seen because of his laziness. He is sometimes a bit selfish. He is also one of the most popular characters.

Wolffy
Wolffy always wears an orange cap with a yellow patch and has a scar under his eye. He always thinks of clever plans to catch the goats, but he usually ends up being defeated. His failures to catch goats are met with angry scolding and violence from his wife, such as being hit over the head with a frying pan. Even so, his love for Wolnie never disappears. Sometimes he is seen as a respectable cartoon figure because of his faithfulness to his wife and his effort to catch goats.

Wolnie
Wolnie is Wolffy’s wife, who is always dressed in a red robe with black and white trims. She always hits him with her frying pan whenever his plans fail; however, she does love her husband. She is actually very smart and while her husband can think of strange inventions to catch goats, her simple ideas are the ons that are actually successful.
