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
a personal visit
解析
他们滋扰她多日,使邻居进出都困难,而—个也是记者身份的朋友试图与她交谈,只是以朋友的身份,所以答案必须是a personal visit。如果少了personal答案就没有意义了。

relax本题有一定的难度。在第五个话轮中,女士指出自己周末也工作,然后在第六个话轮中男士问她是不是(周末)从不休息,从女士的回答及后面的话轮可知她正是这样。男士的noteverrelax即是neverrelax,因此本题应填入relax。
pool在第二个话轮中女士描述自己的活动时,第六句即指出;AndthenIsometimes...inmypool。注意本题也可由常识得出答案,因为游泳(swim)只能在她自己的游泳池中进行。
89本题考查考生对于具体信息的听辨能力。原句为“Hewas89.”应该看清楚试题,比如这题“Death(Age)”,说明需要补充的内容肯定是一个表示年龄的数字。
