Besides reporters, who else were camped out for days outside the speaker’s home?
W: When I was getting divorced in 1975, reporters and cameramen were camped out for days in the lobby and on the sidewalk outside. They came from all over the country. Foreign reporters too. It was terrible. My neighbors could barely get in and out of the building. One reporter, who had been a friend of mine, got up to my apartment after persuading the doorman into believing that he was there on a personal visit. I wouldn’t let him in. He just wanted to talk, he said. I was certain that he had a camera and wanted a picture of me looking depressed. I just couldn’t believe this attempt to invade my privacy. TV is the worst. TV reporters present themselves as having the perfect right to be anywhere, to ask any question. It doesn’t matter how personal the matter may be.
People don’t trust the press the way they used to. In most cases, stories are sensationalized in order to attract more public attention. Some papers print things that simply are not true. In many papers, if a correction has to be made, it’s usually buried among advertisements. I’ve received hundreds of letters from people asking me how do you know what’s true in the press these days. I find it difficult to respond sometimes. I tell them that there are good newspapers and serious, responsible and honest reporters. Don’t judge all of us by the standards of the bad ones. Unless the guys at the top—the editors and the news directors take firm action, pretty soon no one is going to believe anything they read in the papers or see on television news.
选项
答案
depressed
解析
记者想给她拍照,无非是想拍到她沮丧的表情,因此她固守着不让人进来。此题完全可以通过阅读题目猜出,一个女人离婚了,闭门不出,不是伤心就是沮丧。注意不能写成depressing。
