Conducting interviews for news stories is an important skill for any journalist. To start, do as much research as you can and prepare a list of questions to ask. Once the interview starts, try to develop a rapport(融洽的关系) with your \"source\"—anyone a journalist interviews, but don't waste your time. If your source starts to talk about things that are clearly of no use to you, don't be afraid to gently but firmly turn the conversationback to the topic at hand.
It's an old debate among journalists: Which works better when interviewing a source, taking notes (the old-fashioned way) or using a cassette or digital voice recorder? Both have their advantages and disadvantages. A reporter's notebook and a pen or pencil are the easy-to-use, time-honored tools of the interviewing trade, while recorders enable you to get everything someone says word for word. Which works better? It depends on what kind of story you're doing.
Many beginning reporters complain that with a notepad and pen, they can never take down everything a source says in an interview. But you don't have to note everything down. Keep in mind that you're probably not going to use everything they say in your story. So don't worry if youlet slipa few things.
So you've done a long interview with a source, you have pages of notes, and you're ready to write. But chances are you'll only be able to choose a few quotes from that information collected directly from the source. Which ones should you use? Reporters often talk about using only \"good\" quotes for their stories, but what does this mean? Broadly speaking, when someone says something interesting, and says it in an interesting way, that can make a good quote.
4. What is a journalist advised to do during an interview?
A. Be gentle with the source. B. Carry on a long conversation.
C. Make the conversation interesting. D. Prevent the conversation being off-topic. 5. What do the underlined words \"let slip\" in Paragraph 3 mean?
A. give away B. leave out C. get rid of D. take up 6. What is considered as a good quote for a reporter?
A. A direct quote. B. An important point of view.
C. A piece of basic information. D. Something funny a source says interestingly. 7. What is the text mainly about?
A. The job of a journalist. B. The process of interviewing.
C Some facts about interviewing. D. The relationship between a journalist and a source.
C
A team of researchers from several institutions in the UK and one in Estonia has created a type of buoy（浮标）that has proven to be effective at frightening seabirds, thus preventing them from getting caught in gillnets—a type of vertical fishing net that is made of a material that makes it nearly invisible underwater.
Every year, hundreds of thousands of seabirds die when they get caught in gillnets. Some estimates suggest that up to a half-million birds are caught in them each year. Over the years, researchers have created devices（装置）to prevent the birds from trying to catch fish near or in gillnets, but those didn't work well.
To find a way that would work for all seabirds, the researchers first studied seabirds in a general sense, looking to find things that they would avoid. They noted that seabirds avoided eye contact with other creatures. Then the researchers came up with a simple idea—they put a small pole to a regular buoy and then attached a pair of googly eyes（金鱼眼）to the top of it. They made the eyes big enough so that even birds with poor eyesight, such as geese, would see them. Adding to the effectiveness of the device, waves made the eyes move back and forth. And the wind made the buoy spin very slowly, making sure that birds from every direction would get a good look at the eyes.
To test their idea, the researchers selected several sites near gillnets and counted how many birds approached and how many attempted to catch fish near the nets. They then set up their googly-eyed buoys and once again counted birds. Over the course of 62 days, they found the number of birds that tried to catch fish near the gillnets dropped by approximately 25% for a distance of up to 50 meters. They also found that the birds were less likely to fish near where the buoys had been for up to three weeks after they had been removed. 8. What is the function of paragraph 2?
A. Introducing a new topic to discuss. B. Providing background information. C. Summarizing the previous paragraph. D. Pointing out the main idea of the text. 9. Why did the researchers make the googly eyes big?
A. To ensure all the seabirds can see them. B. To clearly observe seabirds' eye contact. C. To allow them to survive the strong wind. D. To effectively identify the right direction. 10. What does the researchers' test result mainly suggest?
A. The new device still needs improving B. Gillnets are a death valley for seabirds. C. Seabirds hardly catch fish near the nets. D. The googly-eyed buoy proves effective. 11. What is the text mainly about?
A. A group of researchers interested in seabirds. B. A way to help seabirds catch fish effectively. C. A device keeping seabirds safe from gillnets. D. A googly-eyed buoy guiding seabirds to hunt.
D
In Colombia a group, named WebConserva, is carrying out a project in the San Lucas Mountains with the help of coffee growers.
The San Lucas area is one of the most unexplored places in Colombia, which is home to many thousands of species of animals and plants. Yet gold mining and coca farming have dealt a blow to its ecosystem. To limit additional development in the San Lucas area, the group helps coffee growers by linking them with processors from around the country.
Colombia has more different kinds of living things than any other country except neighboring Brazil. In 2016, the Colombian government signed a peace deal with the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia ending years of civil war. As a result, more land became accessible for use, with deforestation(毁林) coming along. Government information shows that in 2017, almost 220,000 hectares of forest were destroyed compared to around 124,000 hectares in 2015.
To date, the project includes 10 families who farm 400 hectares of coffee plants, which costs about $77,000 dollars a year. WebConserva hopes that, in time, 200 families will be included. At that level, 20,000 hectares of untouched forest could be protected. In San Lucas, the families promise not to cut down trees to expand their crops or to hunt wild animals from the forests. In return, they receive $ 250 to $ 300 per 125 kilograms of coffee, an enviable amount there. Arcadio Barajas is among those taking part. His new coffee plantation(种植园) makes a barrier between cattle farms and forests where wild animals like the jaguar live and hunt. In this way, he doesn't have to kill wild animals to protect his cattle.
Barajas said that pulling down the forest to plant coca and killing wildlife were against his will. Now he feels that growing coffee lets him be astewardof the land. \"I'm taking care of the environment, the forest and the animals,\" he said.
12. Why does WebConserva set up the project? A. To help local farmers make money. B. To expand areas of coffee growing. C. To link processors with coffee growers. D. To conserve biodiversity in the Mountains.
13. What happened after Colombia’s civil war was over? A. Colombia helped many needy families. B. Colombia lost lots of areas of forests. C. Colombia started to save damaged forests. D. Colombia became more peaceful than Brazil.
14. Which is probably a function of Barajas's coffee plantation? A. A method of protecting cattle and wildlife. B. A substitute for hunting of wild animals. C. A barrier between man and wild animals. D. A shelter for cattle against human hunters.
15. What does the underlined word \"steward\" mean in the last paragraph? A. Farmer. B. Master. C. Guardian. D. Explorer.
