Street Sense is a newspaper in Washington， D. C. about homeless people and issues （問題） that affect them. Homeless or formerly homeless Washingtonians write many of the articles. The newspapers business model is based on homeless vendors who sell the newspaper. You can hear them call out “Street Sense for sale” near subway entrances， lunch places and other areas around the city.

The Street Sense newspaper is housed in an office in a Christian church in Washington. Every other Wednesday about fourteen thousand copies are printed. The newspaper expresses the thoughts and experiences of people who call the streets home. Four staff members work at Street Sense. Two of them are paid. The staff members write the first two pages of the paper. Interns—students working as part of their studies—and volunteers help. Homeless writers provide the rest of the material. This includes poems， stories and essays.

Mary Otto is the editor of Street Sense. She came to the paper from the Washington Post newspaper. Mary Otto says severe mental disorders prevent many homeless people from seeking shelter. Such problems can also block them from having close relationships with other people.

Street Sense provides training to the homeless people who want to become part of the sales team. After the training， each student is given ten free copies of Street Sense. Once those are sold， trainees become real sales people. They buy papers for thirty-five cents each and sell them for a dollar.

She says the newspaper plays a part in homeless peoples lives which other media can not. “The mainstream media do not usually cover poverty （貧窮） or homelessness too much， unless someone dies or theres a big rally or something.”

1. What can we know about Street Sense from Paragraph 1？

A. It raises money for homeless people.

B. It is mainly read by homeless people.

C. It is written and edited by local writers.

D. It covers the issues of homeless people.

B. sell something along the street

C. write articles for the newspaper

D. help homeless people on the street

3. What prevent many homeless people from seeking shelter according to Mary Otto？

A. Lack of money. B. Mental problems.

C. Lack of knowledge. ? D. Physical disabilities.

4. What is Mary Ottos opinion of Street Sense？

B. It will take the place of other media.

C. It can help homeless people get rid of poverty.

D. It should pay more attention to homeless people.

Personal computers and Internet give people new choices about how to spend their time.

Some may use this freedom to share less time with certain friends or family members， but the new technology will also let them stay in closer touch with those they care most about. I know this from personal experience.

E?mail makes it easy to work at home， which is where I now spend most weekends and evenings. My working hours arent necessarily much shorter than they once were but I spend fewer of them at the office. This lets me share more time with my young daughter than I might have if shed been born before electronic mail became such a practical tool.

The Internet also makes it easy to share thoughts with a group of friends. Say you do something fun—see a great movie perhaps and there are four or five friends who might want to hear about it. If you call each one， you may tire of telling the story.

With e?mail， you just write one note about your experience， at your convenience， and address it to all the friends you think might be interested. They can read your message when they have time， and read only as they want to. They can reply at their convenience， and you can read what they have to say at your convenience.

E?mail is also an inexpensive way to stay in close touch with people who live far away. More than a few parents use e?mail to keep in touch， even daily touch， with their children at college.

We just have to keep in mind that computers and the Internet offer another way of staying in touch. They dont take the place of any of the ways.

5. Whats the purpose of the text？

A. To explain how to use the Internet.

B. To tell the value of the Internet.

C. To introduce basic knowledge about the Internet.

D. To describe the authors joy of keeping up with the Internet.

A. work at home on weekends

B. spend more time at the office

C. work less than before

D. stay with his child more

7. According to the author， the obvious advantage of email over the telephone is that it helps the user to ___ .

A. pass on much more information

B. get in touch with the friends faster

C. keep the communication as personal as possible

D. reach a group of people at one time conveniently

8. What is the best title for the text？

A. Computers： Have Made Life Easier

B. Computers： New Technological Advances

C. Internet： New Tool to Maintain Good Friendship

D. Internet： A Convenient Tool for Communication

A

The American newspaper has been around for about three hundred years. In 1721， the printer James Franklin， Benjamins elder brother， started The New England Courant， and that was what we might recognize today as a real newspaper. He filled his paper with stories of adventure， articles on art， on famous people， and on all sorts of political subjects.

Three centuries after the appearance of Franklins Courant， few believe that newspapers in their present printed form will remain alive for long. Newspaper companies are losing advertisers， readers， market value， and in some cases， their sense of purpose at a speed that would not have been imaginable just several years ago. The chief editor of The Times said recently， “At places where they gather， editors ask one another， ‘How are you？， as if they have just come out of the hospital or a lost law case.” An article about the newspaper appeared on the website of The Guandian， under the headline “NOT DEAD YET”.

Perhaps not， but the rise of the Internet， which has made the daily newspaper look slow and out of step with the world， has brought about a real sense of death. Some American newspapers have lost 42% of their market value in the past three years. The New York Times Company has seen its stock （股票） drop by 54% since the end of 2004， with much of the loss coming in the past year. A manager at Deutsche Bank suggested that stock-holders sell off their Times stock. The Washington Post Company has prevented the trouble only by changing part of its business to education; its testing and test-preparation service now brings in at least half the companys income.

1. What can we learn about The New England Courant？

A. It is mainly about the stock market.

B. It carries articles by political leaders.

C. It remains a successful newspaper in America.

D. It marks the beginning of the American newspaper.

2. We can infer the newspaper editors ___ .

A. care a lot about each other

B. often accept readers suggestions

C. stop doing business with advertisers

D. face great difficulties in their business

3. Which of the following found a new way for its development？

A. The Washington Post. B. The Guardian.

C. The New York Times. D. The New England Courant.

4. How does the author feel about the future of newspapers？

A. Satisfied. B. Surprised.

C. Worried. D. Hopeful.

These sections aid me in making decisions， because unfortunately Im very indecisive. This magazine tells girls how to deal with problems in their teenage years.

What inspires me most is the stories about the heroism shown by teenagers. They show me that no matter where you are， you can help others in trouble. I hope to be a hero to help many people in the future. Even if I dont get a huge spread of my picture in my favourite magazine， the satisfaction of helping others will be enough.

The freebies （免費(fèi)贈(zèng)品） are another reason why I enjoy it. Every month there is a calendar in the magazine that offers free prizes every day. All that is required to win them is to type the keyword in the form on the magazines website.

A funny aspect of Seventeen is the “Traumarama”. Readers share their shameful stories with other readers， and we all get a good laugh out of it. Its interesting that the entire world has a chance to read about your humiliation， which you considered painful before， but now youre in a place where you can laugh at it too.

Seventeen. com is the website of the magazine. I visit the site regularly， not only to read more articles， but to play the games. This website has some of the best Internet games out there.

閱讀七選五

Think back to the past 15 or 20 years. How did you get your news？ Chances are that you got it by either newspaper or magazine. ?Services like Facebook and Twitter control our lives—kids and adults alike use both services to get information about their favorite bands， celebrities， brands and even politicians.

New technologies make it easier than ever for anyone to make a website and start writing about whatever they want. But what about getting the hard facts？

Staffed by editors， reporters， printing personnel and advertising reps， these people make up the trusted institutions that have delivered the news to us for more than a century. ?And they hold themselves accountable for the news they produce. However， a tremor （小震動(dòng)） has hit our society， threatening to throw off balance in the type of news we receive and how we get it.

Traditionally， newspapers have been the gatekeepers of information， and the people who decided the issues that were most critical to the public. ?In this day and age， all that is required is a Twitter hashtag （標(biāo)簽） to get thousands of people to stand together against corruption and greed.

Whether people realize it or not， we need newspapers. ?Theyve uncovered corruption， showed us miracles， helped bring about changes and helped protect those who have lacked the means to protect themselves.

The pen is truly mightier than the sword. We cant let it run out of ink.

A. That no longer holds true.

B. Your local newspaper is your answer.

C. Their job is reporting and producing the news.

D. But now the whole news landscape is different.

E. They keep us informed and they keep us honest.

F. Clearly the newspaper industry cannot save itself.

G. Newspapers have been the publics eyes and ears.
