  Letter to Editor of TV Weekly

  Dear Sir/Madam,

  I read Alison Burnham’s review of When we were 12, and I do not agree with her.I thought the programme was wonderful-I found the old news pictures really interesting-they helped to bring to life the stories the people were telling.

  The programme reminds me of many things from my own childhood.For example, one day when I was about five, I was going to school on the bus by myself(this was the late 1960s).My mother had given me exactly the right money for a return ticket.I held out my hand with the money in it-one big coin on top of one little coin.The bus conductor took the big top coin only and she gave me a ticket, but it was a pink one for a single journey.I needed a white one for a return journey, but I was too frightened to say anything.When school finished for the day, I couldn’t catch the bus home-I had to walk.As a grown-up, whenever I’ve been in a situation Where I need to say something or take some action, this early memory of my bus ride comes back to me, and I’m able to take control of the situation.

  I would like to say to the director, Bret Chrysler, carry on making this kind of programme.Too much TV these days is quiz shows and so-called “reality programmes”.I appreciate the human story that can make me laugh and cry.

Yours faithfully,

Chris Daniels

The Nobel Prizes

The prizes are awarded by the Nobel Foundation(基金會)for outstanding achievements or contributions in these areas: chemistry, physics, medicine or physiology, literature and peace. Each prize has three parts. The first part is a gold medal. Second, a winner of a Nobel Prize is given a diploma(證書)saying that he has been awarded the prize. The third part of the prize is a large amount of money. Often a prize is awarded to just one person, but not always. Sometimes a prize is shared, maybe by two or more people who have worked together to reach a goal. Since the Nobel Prizes are international prizes, scientists, inventors, writers, and diplomats(外交官)from all countries may receive a prize. Sometimes, two people from countries with different political views may even share a prize. An example of this is the 1973 Peace Prize, which was awarded to Henry Kissinger of the United States and to Le Due Tho of North Vietnam for the Vietnam(越南)peace negotiations(談判).It is also sometimes true that a prize is not given. If there is no outstanding achievement in one of these areas, no prize is given in that area. In 1972, for example, no Nobel Peace Prize was given. Someone must decide whether or not to give an award. The process of nominating(提名,推薦)and choosing Nobel Prize winners has two parts. First, nominations, or recommendations of people who might deserve(應(yīng)得)a Nobel Prize, are made. The nominations in physics and chemistry are made by the Royal Academy(研究員,學(xué)會)of Science in Stockholm. The nominations in medicine or physiology are made by the Caroline Medical Institute, which is also in Stockholm. The Swedish Academy, along with the French and Spanish Academies, makes nominations in literature. The peace prize nominations are made by a committee of the Norwegian government. Many nominations are made in each area. Nominations from these groups begin the process of choosing the Nobel Prize winners.

The second part of the process of choosing Nobel Prize winners is to decide which of the nominees deserves the award in each area. This decision is made by the Nobel Foundation in Stockholm. The Foundation may decide not to give a prize at all in any area.

1.A Nobel Prize is given in the form of _____________.

A. a large quantity of money             B.a diploma

C.a gold medal                      D.all of the above

2.The 1973 Peace Prize was awarded to _____________.

A.Henry Kissinger                   B.Le Duo Tho

C.two persons from one country          D.two individuals from different countries

3.Sometimes a prize is not given because there is _____________.

A.no remarkable achievement in that area

B.no suitable nomination

C.disagreement among committee members

D.financial(經(jīng)濟的)shortage

4.The decision of literature prize winner is made by_____________.

A.the Swedish Academy and the French and Spanish Academies

B.the Nobel Foundation

C.a committee for the Norwegian government

D.the Royal Academy of Science in Stockholm

5.We can infer from this passage that_____________.

A.the Nobel Prize is given in six areas

B.the Nobel prizewinners are very carefully chosen

C.sometimes the Nobel Prize is not given

D.the Nobel Prize is international
