（A）
An Open Letter to an Editor
I 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 résumé (簡(jiǎn)歷) 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, 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, 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 our 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.

Answer 1

【答案】
（1）C
（2）D
（3）A
【解析】本文是一封寫(xiě)給編輯的公開(kāi)信，新中拍給你提出了希望編輯能夠把記者的好的想法變成現(xiàn)實(shí)。
（1）C判斷推理題。根據(jù)文章第五段第二句He wants to be pushed, challenged, coached to new heights.可知他想要承擔(dān)更多的工作，被別人推動(dòng)著向前進(jìn)，他希望接受挑戰(zhàn)，他希望被推進(jìn)新的高度。這些都說(shuō)明他很有抱負(fù)和野心。故總結(jié)出ambitious這個(gè)詞：有抱負(fù)的。選C。
（2）D推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章倒數(shù)第二段前兩句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.可知他希望自己的編輯能夠幫助他把一些好的想法變成現(xiàn)實(shí)，并探索最好的方法吧故事報(bào)道出來(lái)。也就是說(shuō)他想他的編輯幫助改善他的那些好的觀點(diǎn)。故D正確。
（3）A 推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章最后一段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可知這里的we就是指作者.句意：我們最大的希望就是有最好的記者，最好的編輯等。說(shuō)明作者就是報(bào)社的內(nèi)部人士，排除BD項(xiàng)。作者是為一位記者提出要求的。說(shuō)明作者應(yīng)該是報(bào)社的管理人員，故A正確。
