In this section you will hear ONE interview. The interview will be divided into TWO parts. At the end of each part, five questions will be asked about what was said. Both the interview and the questions will be spoken ONCE ONLY. After each question there will be a ten-second pause. During the pause, you should read the four choices of A, B, C and D, and mark the best answer to each question on ANSWER SHEET TWO.
You have THIRTY seconds to preview the questions.
(a thirty-second interval)
Now listen to Part One of the interview.
A: Good morning, Alicia.
B: Good morning.
A: Many people will be wondering why a tech blogger like myself is interviewing the " Who’s the Boss?" actress, I know just how geeky(and I mean that in me best sense of the word of course)you are, but others might not. Can you tell us a little bit about your techy passions?
B: I’m extremely tech curious. I’m inspired by technology the same way I’m inspired by art or a great piece of music. I love innovation and invention. I’m oddly motivated by great thinkers that look outside the box and become pioneers.
A: You are one of the most influential people on Twitter, how do you explain your tremendous success on Twitter?
B: Well ... thank you ... But I’m not sure I can explain it. I can only say that I’m dedicated to my Twitter community. And maybe the consistency and dedication has enabled my followers to trust what I’m sharing in my Twitter feed. I take it all to heart and maybe people can feel that. I realize that people have a choice to follow me or not and I try to show appreciation. I also just try to strike the balance of sharing a part of myself and relevant information.
A: I might know one of the things that people love about you on Twitter: you are not like the other celebrities who don’t give the little people the time of day. You reply regularly to people with less than 10 followers. How do you stay so grounded in the world in which you live, i.e. show business?
B: I stay grounded because I was raised that every single person on this planet is created equal and that family, love, and friendships are bigger than anything that goes on in show business. And I reply to people on Twitter because I’m not sure I understand the point of being on Twitter if you’re not going to interact with the community. In the 3-dimensional world, if someone pays you a compliment, any polite person shows gratitude and at least says " thank you". Why would it be different in the cyber world? If someone reaches out to me and it catches my eye, the least I can do is type a few words and click " enter". It takes seconds to put a smile on someone’s face. Why would anyone NOT want to do that? AND ... I’ve been on the other side! Ha!
A: Besides tech and acting, you have been known to take interest in other industries such as fashion and baseball, can you tell us a little bit about those interests and when they started?
B: I love sports! Like most little girls that love sports, I think it began with wanting to have passions in common with my dad and brother. About 4 years ago, I was at a Dodgers game and went into the stadium shop to find something I could buy to fly the team colors and show my team spirit. The only items available were boxy tee-shirts and baggy hoodies. And ... much to my dismay ... there was a lot of pink. I couldn’t find anything fashionable or flattering available for female sports fans. I went back to my seat and thought to myself — if I was looking for quality female fan apparel, then surely other women were as well.
This is the end of Part One of the interview.
Questions 1 to 5 are based on what you have just heard.
Question 1
Who is Alicia?
(Pause: 10 seconds)
Question 2
What’s NOT the reason for her success on Twitter?
(Pause: 10 seconds)
Question 3
Why does Alicia mention "the 3-dimensional world"?
(Pause: 10 seconds)
Question 4
According to Alicia, what is the point of being on Twitter?
(Pause: 10 seconds)
Question 5
When did she start to take interest in other industries?
选项
A、Because she wants to stress the importance of politeness.
B、Because she wants to explain why she replies to people regularly in the cyber world.
C、Because she wants to describe the latest technological development that inspires her next line.
D、Because she wants to emphasize the differences between the real world and the cyber world.
答案
B
解析
根据提及“the 3一dimensional world”的上下文,可以看出说话人的意图是为了说明她为什么会在推特上回复别人,并视为平常。因此选B。
