听力原文: In Britain there are 11 national daily newspapers and most people read one of them every day. There are two kinds of newspaper. One is large in size and has many detailed articles about national and international events. These newspapers are called the serious papers or the quality papers. The other kind, called the tabloids, are smaller in size, have more pictures, often in color, and short articles, often about less important events or about the private lives of wellknown people. Although some people disapprove of tabloids, more people buy them than buy the serious newspapers. Tile Sun, for example, which is a tabloid, is the biggest-selling newspaper in Britain. The tabloids are sometimes called the gutter press. And in 1997, some photograph reporters of the tabloids were said to be involved in the tragic death of Princess Diana in France and they were criticized as Paparazzi by the public.
Most national newspapers in Britain express a political opinion and people choose the newspaper that they read according to their own political beliefs. Most of the newspapers are right-wing which means they support the Conservative Party. These are the Daily Telegraph, which is the serious newspaper, the Daily Express, Daily Mail, Daily Star, the Sun and Today, which are all tabloids. Of the other serious newspapers, The Times, the oldest newspaper in Britain, did not formerly have one strong political view but it is now more right-wing. The Independent does not support any political party, and neither does the Financial Times, which concentrates on business and financial news. The Daily Mirror is the voice of the Labor Party.

听力原文: Every family has its own problems. Here is what one family decided to do about its problems.
A newspaper recently printed an article about a family in the state of Wisconsin. The family's name is Brown. The interesting thing about the family is that it has its own constitution. Young Tim Brown suggested writing one. He is one of six children. The oldest one is 22 years old, and the youngest is seven.
Tim decided that a constitution was needed. Although the members of the family loved each other, they often disagreed. They did not agree about doing the jobs that needed to be done. Which child should wash the dishes? Which one should clean the house? Who should cut the grass and set the table? The answers to these questions were written down. All the children in the family signed the constitution, which named Tim's father and mother as "Presidents for Life".
There is a law about the time when the children in the family must go to bed. According to the constitution, everyone under 14 must go to bed before 10 p.m. As it happens, Tim is 14 years old.
