03                Reading课文---An interview with an Orbis doctor

Tip:采访他人时，我们需要提前做好充分准备，了解相关话题的背景知识。记得一次只问一个问题，并且给被采访者留出思考和回答的时间。

Interviewer: Dr Ma, please tell us something about eye problems.

Dr Ma: OK. Over one billion people around the world are suffering from different kinds of eye problems, and about 90

per cent of these cases can be prevented or cured. However, many people don’t have money for medical treatment.

Interviewer: How does the charity Orbis help?

Dr Ma: Orbis’s Flying Eye Hospital Project was started in 1982 with the aim of helping patients in poor areas. On the plane, volunteer doctors do operations.

Interviewer: Ah, I see. But why did Orbis choose to use a plane as a hospital?

Dr Ma: Many of our patients can’t afford to go to hospital, so we have to go to them. Our plane is also used as a training centre.

Interviewer: Can you tell us more?

Dr Ma: Local doctors and nurses are invited on board to learn about eye operations. We can teach them new skills. By training them, we hope more people will benefit from this. Last year more than 38,000 eye care training classes were held.

Interviewer: How many operations do you do during a visit?

Dr Ma: During my last visit, 150 patients were operated on.

Interviewer: You’re doing a really important job!

Dr Ma: Thank you. We’re proud to help people see again.

Interviewer: Is there anything else you’d like to say to our readers?

Dr Ma: Yes. Modern medicine is developing quickly and now most eye problems and diseases can be treated and cured. But we need more money to carry on with our work. We hope more people will support us.

Interviewer: I’m sure this interview will help more people understand and support your important work. Thank you very much for your time, Dr Ma.
