听力原文: In the modern world, it is important to be well-informed. Success in many fields depends on getting the latest information. To keep up with what is happening in the world, well-informed people read newspapers and news magazines. They listen to the news on the radio and they watch it on television. Owners of home computers can even receive their news directly from the wire services--news agencies that supply newspapers, magazines, radio and television with news reports through special telephone links.
Most people read newspapers for the news of the day. The typical daily newspaper contains articles about local, regional, national, and international news, as well as sports news, weather reports, editorials, and other features. In large cities, newspaper readers can often choose between a "morning paper" distributed early in the morning and an "evening paper" distributed at the end of the workday. Most American newspapers also publish an enlarged Sunday edition containing articles about the news of the day and of the week, plus a number of entertainment and advertising supplements. Daily newspapers are designed to be read quickly by busy people looking for specific information. The Sunday papers, on the other hand, are intended to entertain as well as inform, and they tend to be read leisurely by all members of the family. Other types of newspapers include campus newspapers, written by students at universities, and weekly newspapers, usually intended for a specific audience.

The newspapers, like the cinema and usually the radio, expressed popular culture, and observers talked as though this were the only culture which now existed. The flood of the message was supposed to have submerged the standards of previous times, but this was far from being the case. There was also a middle culture and a high culture—the distinctions between them resting on levels of sophistication (middlebrow and highbrow), not on class. The middlebrow culture was the least interesting, a repetition of past patterns interspersed with lamentations against anything new, either above or below. Those who condemned James Joyce or Picasso also disapproved of the cinema. These middlebrows felt more menaced than before, hence the intolerance which contrasted oddly with their professions of liberalism. Original artists and thinkers were constantly, though ineffectually, harassed. The works of three great British writers—Joyce, D.H. Lawrence, T.E. Lawrence—came under the legal bail of pornography. The organizer of an art exhibition teamed to expect, in England, a visit from the police. In Paris and Berlin he took precautions against riot.
Broadcasting and films were the same in that they both______.
A.used headlines
B.communicated news
C.did without writing
D.advertised through newspapers and magazines

Print publications have lots of advantages. Paper is pleasant to handle, ready to read, and very portable: you can read it almost anywhere. On the other hand, print has its weaknesses. Paper is expensive, and articles are often cut to fit the space available. Printing and distributing paper is expensive and takes time. Printed materials are expensive to store and almost impossible to search. Electronic publishing offers solutions to all these problems.
Suppose a publisher makes the electronic copy of a newspaper or magazine available from the net, perhaps on the Internet' s World Wide Web. No paper is used and disc space is cheap, so Internet publishing costs very little. Articles don' t have to be cut. Internet publishing is fast, and readers can access material as soon as it becomes available: within minutes, instead of the next day, next week or next month. Internet publishing goes beyond geographical boundaries: the humblest local paper can be read everywhere from New York to London to Delhi to Tokyo. Delivery costs are low because there are no newsagents to pay, and no postal charges: readers pick up the bills for their on-line sessions. Also, computer-based publications are simple to store and every word can be searched electronically.
At the moment, newspapers and magazines, TV and radio stations, news agencies and book publishers are making content freely available on the Web because they are competing for "mindshare". Perhaps they want to find out if they can attract and hold an audience on line, or perhaps they' re afraid of missing out because "everyone else is doing it". But don' t count on things staying that way. Publishers are not in business to lose money.
What does the author probably foresee?
A.Readers will have more accesses.
B.Books and newspapers will be kept as computer files.
C.It will not make any sense to keep the printed versions.
D.Electronic publications will replace printed ones.

第二节 短文理解1
阅读下面短文,从[A](Right)、[B](Wrong)、[C](Doesn't Say)三个判断中选择一个正确选项。
In order to study efficiently (高效率地), you need to have a place that is always, and only, used for studying. This should be your own desk in your own room. Your desk should be free from anything that may interrupt (打断) your study, such as photos, letters, newspapers, or a radio. All the things you need for study should be put at your hand: textbooks, notebooks, dictionaries, pens and pencils. On the left of your desk(or on your right if you are left-handed) should be a good lamp (台灯) to light up your work. Because your desk is your own place of study, it should not be used for anything else. Even for reading the newspaper or an important letter, go somewhere else. When you come to your desk, you should think of nothing but your study.
However, your place of study, at home or in the classroom, may sometimes be noisy. Many students, therefore, would like to study in the library. There they are not often interrupted.
This text is most probably written for students.
A.Right.
B.Wrong.
C.Doesn't say.
