In recent pythons, you can write this better as:
for line in fobj:
Once you've done this, you can use .next() to advance the iterator. e.g.:
for line in fobj:
if line == objectToLoad:
wordList.append(line)
wordList.append(fobj.next())
This will save the line that matched and the line following it. Note
that this means you won't check the second line --- you can maybe
visualise this with a simpler example:
>>> a = []
>>> nums = iter(range(10))
>>> for i in nums:
... a.append((i, nums.next()))
...
>>> a
[(0, 1), (2, 3), (4, 5), (6, 7), (8, 9)]
