考题 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.

考题共用题干 The Mind-Body ConnectionsNorman Cousins was a famous American magazine editor. In 1964,he returned from an overseas trip and then became very ill.In the hospital,he had a terrible pain and couldn't move his body.Doctors told him he had a serious disease called ankylosing spondylitis（强直性脊柱炎）and said he had only 1 chance in 500 of surviving. They gave him powerful drugs,but his condition only got worse.Cousins had read about a theory that negative emotions can harm your health.He believed that positive emotions were good for one's health,and he decided to try an experiment.He would fill his days with good feelings and laughter and see if that might improve his condition.He left the hospital and moved into a hotel room.There,he got a large supply of funny TV programs and copies of old Marx Brothers movies and cartoons.He also hired a nurse to read funny stories to him.His plan was to spend the whole day laughing and thinking about happy things.On his first night in the hotel,Cousins found that laughing at the movies helped his body produce chemicals that reduced pain.For the first time in weeks,he could sleep comfortably for a few hours.Every time the pain came back,he watched anotherfunny movie and laughed until he felt better.Over time,Cousins was able to measure changes in his body with blood tests.He found that the harmful chemicals in his body decreased at least 5 percent every time he watched a funny movie.After a short time, he was able to stop taking all of his medications.Finally his condition improved so much that he could go back to work.Cousins later wrote a book about how laughter and happiness helped him to survive a deadly illness. Many people didn't believe his story and said that his doctors were wrong about his disease.But since then, research has found that emotions do have a strong effect on physical health,and experiments found that laughter can help to reduce pain.Scientists today are working to understand the ways that our minds affect our bodies.Doctors told Cousins that he would probably die from his disease.A:RightB:WrongC:Not mentioned
