she is a woman of moral character and a source of strength for millions of her admirers. her life and her work are evidences to the greatness of her generous heart. she is influential, to be sure. and she is someone i am deeply honored to call my friend.5through this passage the author intended _.a. to show her encouragement to oprah winfreyb. to summarize the whole life of oprah winfreyc. to show her appreciation of oprah winfreyd. to introduce oprah winfrey as a friend and her shows6which of the following stories is americas story in the authors eyes?a. rich young girls from mississippi gain success in their life.b. poor young girls achieve their success through hard work.c. rich young men experience hardship and win success.d. poor young men pursue higher education but get nothing.7the supporting sentence “in south africa, the oprah winfrey leadership academy for girls will educate a new generation of women leaders.” should be placed at _.a. b. c. d. 8through the underlined part “i did it”， the author means that oprah winfrey is saying _.a. i managed to overcome the challengesb. i encouraged parents, friends and individualsc. i created many opportunities to help peopled. i was admired as a source of strength本文通过生动的事例对美国著名的电视明星、杂志创始人、商业女性和名人oprah winfrey的人格魅力和影响力进行了刻画，同时，作者表达了自己对oprah winfrey的欣赏和赞叹。5c。由短文的第一段倒数第二句和短文的最后一句可知作者对oprah winfrey充满了欣赏和赞叹。6b。由短文第二段中的“oprahs story is americas story: a young girl from mississippi, who grew up without electricity or running water but realized her promise through education and achieved her dreams in liberty.”可推知美国的经历就是“通过辛勤努力最后获得成功”的历史。7c。因为文中以前的“oprah is helping create those opportunities.”是下文要论证的论点，而题干所给句子“in south africa, the oprah winfrey leadership academy for girls will educate a new generation of women leaders”属于“创造机会”的范畴。8a。由前文中的“she has struggled with many of the challenges that we all face, and she has transformed her life.”推知答案。 fouryearold boy becomes queen elizabeths pen pallondon, england: a fouryearold boy has become pen pals with britains queen elizabeth. tom stancombe started exchanging letters with the queen after he set free a balloon, carrying his name and address, at a school party and it landed in the grounds of windsor castle.the queen spotted the balloon and asked her personal assistant, angela kelly, to write a letter on her behalf.she wrote: “the queen was delighted to find that your balloon had traveled all the way to the gardens at windsor castle.”tom, who proudly put the letter on his wall, wrote back to say that his great, great grandfather, the artist petrus johannes arundzen, had been commissioned (受委托) to copy dutch masters on display at windsor castle and buckingham palace.angela at once replied that she would contact the royal collection to find out what had happened to the art works. she kept her word and two weeks later wrote to tom to tell him what had happened to the etchings,_explaining they now form part of the print collection in the print library.angela then asked a favor of tom, writing：“would you be able to ask your mummy and daddy for me if they know anything more about your great, great grandfather? royal collection would love to know more about him.”along with his parents, tom wrote back to fill in all the gaps about petrus johannes arundzen.although toms parents dont think there will be any more letters exchanged between the pair, they were touched that
