Newspapers, along with reporting the news, educate, entertain, and give opinions. An important way of reading a large, big-city newspaper is knowing how to take it apart. Can you find these separate sections: world news, national and local news, sports, business, entertainment, opinions, classified advertisements? Does your paper have other sections? News stories give facts, not the author’s opinions. Editorials（社论） do the opposite; you can expect an editorial to take sides. Some newspaper editorials have a by-line with the author’s name, but many newspapers have unsigned（未署名的）editorials. These reflect the opinions of the publisher or editor. You can be a better reader if you know what to expect in a newspaper. For example, you can expect headlines to omit unnecessary words. You can expect to find the most important facts in the first paragraph of a news story. You can expect important news items to be on the front page. You can expect less important items to be on the inside pages. Most of all, the more you know about the current news, the more you will understand what is the newspaper; important stories are generally presented one day and followed up on following days. So, an important way of reading newspapers is reading one frequently When reading a large newspaper, one should _________（）

Most Americans don't like to get advice from members of his family. When they need advice,

they don't usually ask people they know. Instead, many Americans write letters to newspapers and magazines which give advice on many different subjects, including family problems, the use of language, health, cooking, child care, clothes, and how to buy a house or a car.

Most newspapers regularly print letters from readers with problems. Along with the letters there are answers written by people who are supposed to know how to solve such problems. Some of these writers are doctors; others are lawyers or educators. But two of the most famous writers of advice are women without special training for this kind of work. One of them answers letters addressed to" Dear Abby". The other is addressed as" Dear Ann Landers". Experience is their preparation for giving advice.

There is one writer who has not lived long enough to have much experience. She is a girl named Angel Cavalieve, who started writing advice for newspaper readers at the age of ten. Her advice to young readers now appears regularly in the Philadelphia Bulletin in a column called DEAR ANGEL.

The passage shows us when Americans need advice they often get it from ______.

A．women

B．books

C．letters

D．strangers

tant way of reading a large, big-city newspaper is to put it into different sections. Can you find these separate sections: world news, national and local news, sports, business, entertainment, opinions, ads？ Does your paper have other sections？ News stories give facts, not the reporter's opinions.

听力原文：W: I'm going over to the recycling center this afternoon. Would you like me to ta

ke your old newspaper and paper bags along？.

M: I do have a lot of papers and magazines down in the basement. Volunteers used to come by these apartments regularly to collect waste paper. I still save it but people seldom ask for it nowadays and I have never gone to the recycling center myself.

W: That's typical. A few years ago people were really enthusiastic about reusing waste paper. Unfortunately, interest has been decreasing lately. Manufacturers now use waste paper for things like paper bags, towels, and boxes. But the demand is down. I think they need to find new commercial uses for recycled paper.

M: I suppose things like greeting cards, calendars and writing paper could be made from it too. But recycled paper usually has a color which is not bright, doesn't it？

W: Well, it would not be suitable for art books or high quality magazine paper. But who cares about the dull color if waste paper can take the place of virgin wood pulp and so help to preserve forests.

M: You are right, I’ll bring my waste paper over to your apartment in a little while. Thanks for offering to take it.

Why does the woman want to take old newspapers and paper bags with her？

A．Because she wants to read old newspapers.

B．Because she wants to help the man to throw them away.

C．Because she will go to the recycling center.

D．Because she wants to sell them for some money.

Not long ago, there lived in Auckland a working family who dreamed about a house of thei

r own. Anyone then could read in the newspapers about the building companies who offered to put people into a new house(1)only a $1,000 deposit. Of course, the remainder had to be paid off with interest over a period of twenty years or so.

The worker and his wife hopefully went to one of these companies(2)this wonderful offer. And the man in the office said. “Yes, sure. You bring along $1,000 and we can(3)you with a new house.”

So the worker and his wife had to work hard and in twelve months’ time they returned to the building man with $1,000. But the man in the office said, “Look, I’m sorry, (4)we’ll need $1,500 now. Costs have gone up since we saw you last, you know.”

The couple thought it over and decided it would not take very long to save the extra $500 if they worked hard.

In six moths they worked(5)overtime and saved the $500 in spite of the high rent they had to pay for their flat. Back to the building man they(6)with their $1,500. But to their surprise he (7)the deposit was now $3,000.

“Well”, said the man, “I think we can stabilize the situation for about twelve months. By the time you come with $3,000, we will have had the house(9)for you.

The couple left, sad at heart as they saw their dream house (10) . By the time they had saved the extra $1.500, no doubt the deposit would have become still higher, maybe $5,000, then $10,000 and then…!

Science writer Tom Standage draws apt parallels between the telegraph and the gem of late

20th century technology, the Internet. Both systems grew out of the cutting edge science of their time. The telegraphs land lines, underwater cables, and clicking gadgets reflected the 19th century's research in electromagnetism. The Interacts computers and high-speed connections reflected the 19th century computer science, information theory, and materials technology.

But, while gizmos make a global network possible, it takes human cooperation to make it happen. Standage's insight in this regard adds depth to his technological history, he under scores the relevance to our own time of the struggles of Samuel Morse in America, William Cooke in England, and other telegraph pioneers. They made the technology work efficiently, sold it to a skeptical public, and overcame national and international bureaucratic obstacles. The solutions they found smooth the Internets way today.

Consider a couple of technical parallels. Telegrams were sent from one station to the next, where they were received and retransmitted until they reached their destination. Stations along the way were owned by different entities, including national governments. Internet data is sent from one server computer to another that receives and retransmits it until it reaches its destination. Again the computers have a variety of owners.

Then there is the social impact. The Internet is changing the way we do business and communicate. It makes possible virtual communities for individuals scattered around the planet who share mutual interests. Yet important as this may turn out to be, it is affecting a world that was already well connected by radio, television, and other telecommunications. The Associated Press, Reuters, and other news services would have spread the Stare report quickly without the Internet. In this respect, the global telegraph network was truly revolutionary. The unprecedented availability of global news in real time gave birth to the Associated Press and Reuters news services. It gave a global perspective to newspapers that had focused on local affairs. A provincialism that geographical isolation had forced on people for millennia was gone forever. Some seers naively hailed this as a force for world peace. They predicted that tensions over cultural and ethnic differences would relax as people interacted in real time. Visionaries say the same about the Internet. While communications can smooth this process, they don't automatically make it happen. As the experience of the past century and a half has shown, peace takes the will to make it work and sustained effort by all parties.

What does "the gem of late 20th century technology” refer to？

A．The telegraph.

B．Information theory.

C．Materials technology.

D．The Internet.
