听力原文：W: Hi, Tom. What are you reading？
M: Oh, hi, Tanya. This is a newspaper, the Community News. It carries only good news.
W: Oh, yeah. I think I've seen that.
M: Yeah, isn't it a great idea？ I'm so fed up with all the bad news you read about all the time. It's about time someone offers some creative choice to the mainstream newspapers.
W: I don't know.., the problem with it is, if it's only good news, how do you know you're getting the whole story, and not just sugar-coated truth？ It doesn't sound like objective journalism — that both sides of a story and all facts are being reported.

A．It's a new newspaper.
B．It reports only bad news.
C．It reports only good news.

SECTION C NEWS BROADCAST
Directions: In this section you will hear everything ONCE ONLY. Listen carefully and then answer the questions that follow. At the end of each news item, you will be given 10 seconds to answer the questions.
听力原文： The Lower House of the British Parliament has voted to ban smoking in all enclosed public places in England, including all pubs and bars and even private members' clubs. Scotland has already decided on a similar ban as have a number of other European countries. A complete ban wasn't what the government intended when it introduced this legislation into parliament. It was cunning to greatly restrict public smoking, partly for the smokers' own good, but also for the sake of staff who work in restaurants and other public places, and who've been forced to breathe in other people's smoke. But the original plan was to allow smoking to continue in a kind of basic bar or pub which doesn't serve food and in private members' clubs. That has now been comprehensively defeated in the House of Commons.
What did the government intend to do in the beginning？
A．Greatly restrict public smoking.
B．Ban smoking in all public places.
C．Supervise smoking in some bars.
D．Ban public smoking in England.

听力原文：M: Hi, Wendy, I'd like to get your opinion about news in the United States.
W: Well, I have very strong opinions about it. We think we are getting the news, but it is really just entertainment. It is based on what's going to keep people tuned in, like plastic surgery or celebrities. They actually tease you to get you to watch the news with old stories, because I think they think Americans get bored with international news.
M: You are talking about news on TV？
W: Yeah, they say "tune in at eleven; find out how those women lost weight". And that kind of keeps people watching, and that's what they call news. But what about major political problems？ Those don't get reported in the way they should be. They don't get reported enough.
M: Yeah, I see what you are saying.
W: The other thing that bothers me about news is that it's shallow, like there are these people doing voice-overs, but the voice-overs have the same tone as people who do it from movies. It's like Six Guns to Kill, and then it's like Plastic Surgery at 11, and it's the same voice, the same style. for those two stories. It's equating those types of information. It's all like entertainment.
M: Do you think entertainment is more interesting than news？
W: Good question! I actually think we' ve got used to the idea that news should be just as entertaining as the movies, like a sitcom. And it should be quick and sort of like instant gratification.
M: What do you mean by instant gratification？
W: It's something that doesn't require you to think, easy information. Something makes you feel that you are learning something, but you really aren't. So it's quick and shallow. And TV news has to be reported by news anchors who are physically attractive. If they are not attractive, viewers complain.
M: Well, do you think newspapers give you better news coverage than TV？
W: I think newspapers are better, because they are more in depth, but then who has time to really read them？ And what's difficult about news in general is… see I'm criticizing what's being reported, but the main problem is what is not being reported. And that's hard to criticize because you don't know what's not there. And I think papers are guilty of that.
M: Do you get any news from Radio or the Internet, are they better？ I mean, are there any good places to get news？
W: I do think there are better places, but you have to spend time finding them. And people need quick access. If you want to get specialized news, you have to go to special radio stations or websites, and I don't even know what those are.
M: So where do you get your news？
W: Mostly on TV. That's the thing! I realize I'm being sucked into it. So I'm critical of it. But it's OK, because I know I'm being sucked in.

A．Entertainment on TV.
B．The news in the U.S..
C．Being a correspondent.
D．Interpreting news.
To obtain this type of data we have spent time with individuals, watching how they communicate where they get confused, what they don't understand and the many mistakes they make. You can do this type of research yourself in an informal way. Just watch someone at the desk next to you trying to use a phone or trying to fill in a form. What you will quickly notice about people on the phone is that they use very few of the buttons available on the keypad, and they get quite anxious if they have to use any buttons outside their normal ones. Most will not use the instruction book, and those that do will not necessarily have a rewarding experience. Watch someone fill out a form--a good meaty one such as an application form. or a tax form--and you will see a similar pattern of distressed behavior.
The simple fact we can all observe from how people use these ordinary instruments of everyday communication is how messy, uncertain and confusing the experience can be. Now multiply these individual close encounters of the communicative kind to take account of the full range you may experience in a single day, from getting up in the morning until you go to bed at night and the world takes on a slightly different appearance.
Even watching television which for many provides an antidote to the daily confusion is itself fraught with a kind of low level confusion. For example, if you ring people up five minutes after the evening news has finished and ask them what the news was about, many cannot remember, and those who do remember get some of it wrong.
One of the reasons why this obvious confusion gone unnoticed is because "communication" is a word we associate with success, and therefore we expect the process to work effectively most of the time. To suggest otherwise is to challenge one of our society's most deeply held beliefs.
How do scientists know many people are uneasy about information technology？
A．By asking people to answer questions orally.
B．By asking people to fill in various question forms.
C．By making people use instruments of everyday communication.
D．By watching people using information technology.
A、A news analysis
B、A hard-news item
C、A feature article
D、A weather report
