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.

2. The underlined word “vendors” in Paragraph 1 refers to people who ___ .

A. sleep on the street

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 does Mary Otto say about Street Sense？

A. It can do what other media can not.

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.

B

With the increasing development of technology， we now have the ability to get much information from foreign media sources. Because we can learn much about events happening in other countries from the media， such as magazines and newspapers， many people may think that reading magazines and newspapers is the best way to learn about a foreign country. However， I believe that only reading magazines and newspapers as a way of learning about a foreign country has several limitations.

We cannot deny that magazines and newspapers actually present some valuable information about foreign countries. However， the information that they present is often one-sided， so that readers can only learn about one opinion on an event happening in a foreign country. Also， the words and pictures in magazines and newspapers may not be true. Thus the information that readers receive may not be the truth.

I think that the best way to learn about a foreign country is to travel or live there for a while. By traveling or living in a country， you can see things that do not appear in magazines and newspapers， and learn about the local political situation， state of the economy， and the culture. You can get more information about a country by talking directly with local people about the overall situation， and can truly understand the local culture by living with them for a while. But if you are at home reading a newspaper or magazine， you simply get information provided by others passively instead of collecting information directly.

So， I believe that the best way to learn about a foreign country is not by reading magazines and newspapers but by placing yourself in that foreign country.

5. What does the text mainly discuss？

A. How people get information in no time.

B. Where people can get information they need.

C. Why its important to learn about a foreign country.

D. What the best way to learn about a foreign country is.

6. What does the underlined word “deny” in Paragraph 2 mean？

A. Disagree. B. Promise.

C. Realize. D. Accept.

7. The author thinks that information from magazines and newspapers is ___ .

A. true but not enough

B. correct but not fresh

C. limited and not always true

D. neither enough nor valuable

8. What is the advantage of traveling to a foreign country according to Paragraph 3？

A. Having a quicker mind by learning more.

B. Having a chance to read local newspapers.

C. Meeting people who are different from you.

D. Learning truths that the media dont provide.

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.

4. 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.

5. 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

6. 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.

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

Seventeen is my favorite magazine. There are many things to learn from this magazine. Here are the sections I find most helpful： fashion， beauty， health， love life， and your life. 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 favorite 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.

To sum this whole thing up， Seventeen is my favorite magazine because it is inspiring and interesting.

1. The magazine Seventeen is mainly for ___ .

A. middle-aged men B. middle-aged women

C. young boys D. young girls

2. What encourages the author most in the magazine？

3. What does the underlined word “humiliation” in Paragraph 4 mean？

A. Excitement. B. Worry.

C. Embarrassment. D. Interest.

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.

報(bào)紙?jiān)诿绹?guó)仍占主導(dǎo)地位

Everywhere you turn， there are stories about the rapid ascent of the Internet as Americans information medium of choice. The trend line is clearly pointing in that direction， but according to a new national survey， traditional media are far from being outmoded or irrelevant.

The survey， by the independent Pew Centers Project for Excellence in Journalism and the newspaper-supported Knight Foundation， broke down local information into 16 topic areas and asked people where they learn about each of them.

It turns out that Americans have developed what the Pew Centers director， Tom Rosenstiel， calls a complex ecosystem in which people rely on different platforms for different topics.

More than 80 percent of respondents， for instance， said they still turn to local TV first for breaking news. And 89 percent go there， not to the Web， to get the latest weather information.

And newspapers are a long way from being dead as a go-to information source. Newspapers and newspaper websites ranked first or tied for first as the resource Americans rely on in 11 of the 16 key categories—including crime， taxes， and the arts.

Even the oldest communication form of all—word of mouth—ranked second to local TV as respondents preferred source of information about their communities.

At the same time， according to the Pew and Knight report， “Nearly half of adults occasionally now get local information on mobile devices， though it is still largely a supplemental platform for them.”

The survey of 2，251 American adults is one of the first of nationwide scope that clearly shows the growing complexity of the media landscape， and the willingness—even eagerness—with which consumers are relying on both old and new formats to get their information.

無論你走到哪里，都能聽到有關(guān)互聯(lián)網(wǎng)快速發(fā)展成為美國(guó)人媒體信息來源選擇的故事。發(fā)展趨勢(shì)自然是朝著這個(gè)方向的，然而，根據(jù)一項(xiàng)新的國(guó)民調(diào)查，傳統(tǒng)媒體還遠(yuǎn)未過時(shí)或遠(yuǎn)離人們。

這項(xiàng)調(diào)查是由獨(dú)立機(jī)構(gòu)美國(guó)皮尤研究中心卓越新聞?dòng)?jì)劃和由報(bào)業(yè)支持的騎士基金會(huì)發(fā)起的，他們將當(dāng)?shù)匦侣劮譃?6個(gè)領(lǐng)域，向人們?cè)儐査麄儚暮翁幍弥@些信息。

據(jù)皮尤中心主任Tom Rosenstiel的說法，在美國(guó)，已形成一個(gè)復(fù)雜的生態(tài)系統(tǒng)，人們依賴不同的平臺(tái)來獲取不同的信息。

比如，至少80%的被調(diào)查人說，他們?nèi)园央娨曌鳛榱私鈺r(shí)事新聞的首要手段，89%的人通過電視了解最新的氣象信息，而不是通過上網(wǎng)。

報(bào)紙還遠(yuǎn)未消失，仍是一大信息來源。在16類信息中，有11種信息是主要通過報(bào)紙和報(bào)紙網(wǎng)站獲得的，包括犯罪、稅收和藝術(shù)。

即使是最古老的信息傳播方式——口口相傳，也僅次于當(dāng)?shù)仉娨暸_(tái)，是被調(diào)查人最喜歡的了解社區(qū)信息的途徑。

同時(shí)，根據(jù)皮尤和騎士的報(bào)告：“如今將近一半的成年人會(huì)不時(shí)地通過移動(dòng)設(shè)備掌握當(dāng)?shù)匦畔?，但這在很大程度上仍是一種輔助的平臺(tái)?！?/p>

這次調(diào)查涉及2251名美國(guó)人，是首次全國(guó)范圍的調(diào)查。調(diào)查清楚地表明了美國(guó)日益復(fù)雜的媒體現(xiàn)狀，并且消費(fèi)者也非常喜歡同時(shí)使用老式和新式的信息渠道。
