People think what I do is so wonderful because I interview stars.And I have to admit that when I first started working at Sassy in 1987 I was excited about that part of my job for the first couple of months,anyway.Then I noticed how stars would fool me around for months.I could never get enough time with a star to find out anything interesting,and some acted just simply rudely.I started hating the way I was treated,and I was really disappointed to see that these people I had worshipped (崇拜) before were pretty ordinary.So I decided I would just tell the truth instead of keeping up their myths (神秘).If the star was a bad guy,I would say so.If I thought anyone was stupid,I did not hold back that information.
I thought readers would appreciate that kind of honesty.Surprisingly,many of them hated me for it.I have gotten so many attacks on my character.In their eyes,being famous is everything,even more desirable that being truly creative and talented.
Why do we need stars?In fact,the media created stars to satisfy our basic need for gossip (闲聊).Over time,talking about people we have never met and we are never likely to meet has become what we are crazy about.Thus,some people are more interested in the personal lives of the stars than in the lives of their own family and their own friends.That is why it is so ridiculous when a star wants to discuss only his or her work in an interview—as we care.We want the dirt on their personal lives.
There is another reason we worship stars.As a whole,our society is not as religious as it once was.It seems that people need something to fulfill them the way religion once did.Star worship exists as an unfulfilling desire for true heroes.
We make them stars,but then their reputation makes us feel unimportant,and we truly feel better about ourselves when they die.I am part of this whole process.No wonder I feel soiled at the end of workday.
1.What are the stars like according to the author?
A.They always treat others rudely.
B.They always talk about something dull.
C.They are actually ordinary people.
D.They are usually honest and polite.
2.We worship stars because ________.
A.we need true mental heroes to support us
B.we can learn something useful from famous stars
C.we concern about the stars,family and friends
D.we like talking about the star's dressing styles
3.When the author is writing this article,his tone sounds ________.
A.excited B.angry
C.worried D.calm
4.What is the main purpose of the author writing the passage?
A.To show the disadvantages of working with stars.
B.To remind us not to worship famous stars blindly.
C.To laugh at the failures of stars he has interviewed.
D.To talk about the reasons why we worship stars.

Some experts feel that the automobile is to “die”. They see a day in the not?too?distant future when all autos will be abandoned and allowed to become rotten iron and steel rubbish. __1.__ They think that the car will remain a leading means of urban travel in the near future.
_2._ It should become smaller, safer, and more money?saving, and should not be powered by the petrol engine. The car of the future should be far more pollution?free than present types.

The computer will calculate the best route, and reserve space for the car all the way to the correct exit from the freeway. _5._ It is guessed that an automated freeway will be able to handle 10,000 vehicles per hour, compared with the 1,500 to 2,000 vehicles that can be carried by a present?day freeway.
