You are near the front line of a battle .Around you shells are exploding ;people are shooting from a house behind you .What are you doing there? You aren’t a soldier .You aren’t 36 carrying a gun .You’re standing in front of a 37 and you’re telling the TV 38 what is happening.
It’s all in a day’s work for a war reporter ,and it can be very 39 .In the first two years of the 40 in former Yugoslavia(前南斯拉夫),28 reporters and photographers were killed .Hundreds more were 41 .What kind of people put themselves in danger to 42 pictures to our TV screens and 43 to our newspapers? Why do they do it ?
“I think it’s every young journalist’s 44 to be a foreign reporter,” says Michael Nicholson, “that’s 45 you find the excitement .So when the first opportunity comes ,you take it 46 it is a war.”
But there are moments of 47 . Jeremy Bowen says, “Yes ,when you’re lying on the ground and bullets (子彈)are flying 48 your ears ,you think: ‘What am I doing here? I’m not going to do this again.’ But that feeling 49 after a while and when the next war starts , you’ll be
50 .”
“None of us believes that we’re going to 51 ,” adds Michael .But he always 52 a lucky charm(護(hù)身符)with him .It was given to him by his wife for his first war .It’s a card which says “Take care of yourself.” Does he ever think about dying? “Oh, 53 ,and every time it happens you look to the sky and say to God, ‘If you get me out of this ,I 54 I’ll never do it again.’ You can almost hear God 55 ,because you know he doesn’t believe you .”

36.D
解析:文章在第一段先列舉了一些事實(shí),講述記者所經(jīng)歷的一切工作。ever意思為“甚至”。而simply的意思為“簡(jiǎn)單的”;really為“真正的”;merely為“僅僅”。根據(jù)句子的意思:你甚至也不用帶槍。
37.D
解析: 從后面的意思可以看出:站在攝像機(jī)前在報(bào)道,讓電視機(jī)前的人們能夠了解正在發(fā)生的事情。
38.B
解析: TV viewer意思為“看電視的人”。而producer為“制造者”;director為“導(dǎo)演”;actor為“演員”,均與文章的意思不符。
39.A
解析:因?yàn)楹竺嬷饕闹v述了在前南斯拉夫的戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng),所以可以知道在那里的工作是很危險(xiǎn)的。
40.C
解析:見(jiàn)第39題的分析。
41.A
解析: 在前面有killed一詞,我們就可以判斷出是injured,這樣就是對(duì)等的。bury的意思為“埋葬”;defeat為“打敗”;save為“挽救”;均不能夠與文章的意思一致。
42.A
解析: 短語(yǔ)bring pictures to our TV screens意思為“給我們的電視帶來(lái)一些圖片”。也就是為我們拍攝一些圖片。
43.C
解析: 電視上主要為圖片,而在報(bào)紙上的大多數(shù)為故事。而scene為“場(chǎng)景”;passage指的是“文章的一段”;content為“內(nèi)容”。
44.B
解析:這是年輕記者的夢(mèng)想。
45.D
解析:這是能夠找到快樂(lè)的地方,where引導(dǎo)表語(yǔ)從句。
46.D
解析:even if意思為“即使”,引導(dǎo)讓步狀語(yǔ)從句。此句的意思為“即使它是一場(chǎng)戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng),當(dāng)?shù)谝淮螜C(jī)會(huì)來(lái)臨的時(shí)候,你也要接受”。
47.A
解析:從這段起主要的談?wù)撘恍┪kU(xiǎn)的,令人害怕的時(shí)刻。從后面所描述的場(chǎng)景可以看出。
48.C
解析:子彈從耳朵旁邊經(jīng)過(guò)。
49.B
解析:但是這種感覺(jué)很快就會(huì)過(guò)去了,當(dāng)?shù)诙螒?zhàn)爭(zhēng)要開(kāi)始的時(shí)候,你又會(huì)到達(dá)那里的。
50.A
解析:見(jiàn)第49題的分析。
51.C
解析:由于從下文中的意思“帶護(hù)身符”等,可以知道:沒(méi)有人相信我們要死去的。
52.D
解析:短語(yǔ)carry with意思為“隨身攜帶著”。
53.B
解析:從后面的every time,可以看出正確答案為many times,意思為“許多次”。
54.C
解析:promise為“答應(yīng)”的意思。
55.B
解析:選擇laughing表示“上帝也會(huì)發(fā)笑的”,因?yàn)槟阒郎系垡膊粫?huì)相信你的話,你將繼續(xù)你的戰(zhàn)地記者的工作。這是文章一個(gè)很幽默的地方。whisper為“低聲說(shuō)”;scream為“發(fā)出尖叫聲”。

By being smart consumers, we can make a difference and help reduce human pressures on the forests and rivers.
