Question

3．"Let's Talk"：The Free Advice Project
A few weeks ago，I took a walk around Washington Square Park．I met all the usual people：street performers，the Pigeon Guy，a group of guitarists singing in harmony．But off to the side，sitting on a bench was a woman doing something vastly different-giving free advice．
A week or two later，I set up an interview with her and we discussed her project at length．
Lisa Podell，32，started the Free Advice Project this past May．It began as an experiment；she sat in Washington Square Park for a day with a sign that read"Free Advice"as a simple way to reach out to people．Podell was astonished at the strong response．
Podell admits that she was doubtful at first，but now she describes the project as mutually （相互地） beneficial．People learn from her-but she also learns from them．She says that the majority of those who come to her are dealing with some pretty heavy issues，and they expect her not only to listen，but also provide real answers．
Having worked as a full time teacher and now as an adolescent advisor，Podell believes that talking things out is an important in the decision-making process．
Sometimes，people walk around all day，keeping their problems in their own head and thinking about them in the same way．Podell simply strives to provide people with perspective．
I asked if there is a future plan for the Free Advice Project．Podell said she would like to promote it to each public space in New York，which would be carried out by various volunteers across the city．
It was truly inspiring to meet someone with such a big heart，especially in New York-where it is sometimes very hard to find anybody to listen．

81．In what way was Podell different from other people in the park？（No more than 6 words）  （2 marks）She was giving free advice．
82．What do people in need expect Podell to do？（No more than 10 words）They expect her to listen and provide real answers
83．According to Podell，what should people do when making decisions？
（No more than 6 words）They should talk things out．
84．How would Podell promote her project in New York？（No more than 15 words）She would promote it to each public space with the help of volunteers．．

Answer 1

分析 "我們談?wù)?是一項(xiàng)免費(fèi)的咨詢項(xiàng)目，由32歲的Lisa Podell在今年 5 月創(chuàng)辦的．通過傾聽還提供真正的解決辦法．作為一個(gè)全職老師和現(xiàn)在青少年的顧問，Lisa Podell認(rèn)為談?wù)撌菦Q策過程中有很重要的作用．Lisa Podell說她想在整個(gè)紐約市的公共空間開展由志愿者參與的這項(xiàng)活動(dòng)．

解答 81．答案She was giving free advice．根據(jù)第一段最后But off to the side，sitting on a bench was a woman doing something vastly different-giving free advice．再通過第三段開頭Lisa Podell，32，started the Free Advice Project this past May可知a woman就是Podell，故答案為：She was giving free advice．
82．答案They expect her to listen and provide real answers．根據(jù)people in need 和expect定位到and they expect her not only to listen，but also to provide real answers．由于字?jǐn)?shù)限制，這里需要將答案改為簡單句：They expect her to listen and provide real answer．
83．答案They should talk things out．根據(jù)making decision定位到Podell believes that talking things out is important in the decision-making process．得出答案為：They should talk things out．
84．答案She would promote it to each public space with the help of volunteers．根據(jù)New York定位到尾段Podell said she would like to promote it to each public space in New York，which would be carried out by various volunteers across the city．由于字?jǐn)?shù)限制可將從句合并到簡單句中變成：She would promote it to each public space with the help of volunteers．
