【题目优选】
(2015·安徽高考)某英文杂志正在举办以“Fancy yourself as an interviewer”为主题的征文活动，请你以“A famous Chinese I would like to interview”为题，写一篇英语短文。
内容包括： 1．采访的对象； 2．采访的原因； 3．想提的问题。 【经典范文】
A famous Chinese I would like to interview
The person I would like to interview is Yang Liwei.
I would really like to interview him because he is not only the first Chinese to go to space but also one of the greatest astronauts in the world. I have long been interested in space exploration and I believe I can learn a great deal from
him about it.
If I could interview him, I would ask him what made him an astronaut and how he was trained. I would also like to know how he felt in space and whether space travel is such great fun as I have read. Finally, I would like to ask a few questions about his personal life, which must be very interesting.
