23、 Bank alternatively if you are addressing secretaries, you may want to comment on their disorganized bosses.Here is an example, which I heard at a nurses convention, of a story which works well because the audience all shared the same view of doctors. A man arrives in heaven and is being shown aroun

24、d by St. Peter. He sees wonderful accommodations, beautiful gardens, sunny weather, and so on. Everyone is very peaceful, polite and friendly until, waiting in a line for lunch, the new arrival is suddenly pushed aside by a man in a white coat, who rashes to the head of the line, grabs his food and

25、stomps over to a table by himself. “Who is that?“ the new arrival asked St. Peter. “Oh, thats God,“ came the reply, “but sometimes he thinks hes a doctor.“If you are part of the group which you are addressing, you will be in a position to know the experiences and problems which are common to all of

26、you and itll be appropriate for you to make a passing remark about the inedible canteen food or the chairmans notorious bad taste in ties. With other audiences you mustnt attempt to cut in with humor as they will resent an outsider making disparaging remarks about their canteen or their chairman. Yo

27、u will be on safer ground if you stick to scapegoats like the Post Office or the telephone system.If you feel awkward being humorous, you must practice so that it becomes more natural. Include a few casual and apparently off-the-cuff remarks which you can deliver in a relaxed and unforced manner. Of

28、ten its the delivery which causes the audience to smile, so speak slowly, and remember that a raised eyebrow or an unbelieving look may help to show that you are making a light-hearted remark.Look for the humor. It often comes from the unexpected. A twist on a familiar quote “If at first you dont su

29、cceed, give up“ or a play on words or on a situation. Search for exaggeration and understatements. Look at your talk and pick out a few words or sentences which you can turn about and inject with humor.（分数：5.00）(1).To make your humor work, you should_.（分数：1.00）A.take advantage of different kinds of

33、ortance and focus of the interview in the work of the print and broadcast journalist is reflected in several books that have been written on the topic. Most of these books, as well as several chapters, mainly in, but not limited to, journalism and broadcasting handbooks and reporting texts, stress t

34、he “how to“ aspects of journalistic interviewing rather than the, conceptual aspects of the interview, its context, and, implications. Much of the “how to“ material is based on personal experiences and general impressions. As we know, in journalism as in other fields, much can be learned from the sy

35、stematic study of professional practice. Such study brings together evidence from which broad generalized principles can be developed.There is, as has been suggested, a growing body of research literature in journalism and broadcasting, but very little significant attention has been devoted to the s

36、tudy of the interview itself. On the other hand, many general texts as well as numerous research articles on interviewing in fields other than journalism have been written. Many of these books and articles present the theoretical and empirical aspects of the interview as well as the training of the

37、interviewers. Unhappily, this plentiful general literature about interviewing pays little attention to the journalistic interview. The fact that the general literature on interviewing does not deal with the journalistic interview seems to be surprising for two reasons. First, it seems likely that mo

Most of us are probably somewhat familiar with the clinical interview, such as that conducted by physicians and psychologists. In these sit

39、uations the professional person or interviewer is interested in getting information necessary for the diagnosis and treatment of the person seeking help. Another familiar situation is the job interview. However, very few of us have actually been interviewed personally by the mass media, particularly

40、 by television. And yet, we have a vivid acquaintance with the journalistic interview by virtue of our roles as readers, listeners, and viewers. Even so, true understanding of the journalistic interview, especially television interviews, requires thoughtful analysis and even study, as this book indi

41、cates.（分数：5.00）(1).The main idea of the first paragraph is that_.（分数：1.00）A.generalized principles for journalistic interviews are the chief concern for writers on journalismB.importance should be attached to the systematic study of journalistic interviewingC.concepts and contextual implications are

42、 of secondary importance to journalistic interviewingD.personal experiences and general impressions should be excluded from journalistic interviews(2).Much research has been done on interviews in general_.（分数：1.00）A.so the training of journalistic interviewers has likewise been strengthenedB.though

43、the study of the interviewing techniques hasnt received much attentionC.but journalistic interviewing as a specific field has unfortunately been neglectedD.and there has also been a dramatic growth in the study of journalistic interviewing(3).Westerners are familiar with the journalistic interview _

44、.（分数：1.00）A.but most of them wish to stay away from itB.and many of them hope to be interviewed some dayC.and many of them would like to acquire a tree understanding of itD.but most of them may not have been interviewed in person(4).Who is the interviewee in a clinical interview?（分数：1.00）A.The patie

45、nt.B.The physician.C.The journalist.D.The psychologist.(5).The passage is most likely a part of_.（分数：1.00）A.a news articleB.a journalistic interviewC.a research reportD.a preface六、BPart B/B(总题数：1，分数：15.00)U61)Back in my early 20s. when “sensible“ wasnt part of my weight-loss vocabulary., I tried a d

Instead of celebrating my emerging figure. I was obsessed with w

Over the next two weeks, I ate more than ever. No surprise that I quickly regained 8 pounds, and put on 2 more.63) UIt sou
