“If there is one thing I’m sure about,it is that in a hundred years from now we will still be reading newspapers.It is not that newspapers are a necessity.Even now some people get most of their news from television or radio.Many buy a paper only on Saturday or Sunday.But for most people reading a newspaper has become a habit passed down from generation to generation.
The nature of what is news may change.What basically makes news is what affects our lives—the big political stories,the coverage of the wars,earthquakes and other disasters,will continue much the same.I think there will be more coverage of scientific research,though.It’s already happening in areas that may directly affect our lives,like genetic(基因)engineering.In the future,I think there will be more coverage of scientific explanations of why we feel as we do—as we develop a better understanding of how the brain operates and what our feelings really are.
It’s quite possible that in the next century newspapers will be transmitted(传送)electronically from Fleet Street and printed out in our own home.In fact,I’m pretty sure that how it will happen in the future.You will probably be able to choose from a menu,making up your own newspaper by picking out the things you want to read—sports and international news,et
C.
I think people have got it wrong when they talk about competition between the different media(媒体).They actually feed off each other.Some people once foresaw that television would kill off newspapers,but that hasn’t happene
D.What is read on the printed page lasts longer than pictures on a screen or sound lost in the air.And as for the Internet,it’s never really pleasant to read something just on a screen.

From the passage,we can infer_______.

A.newspapers will win the competition among the different media
B.newspapers will stay with us together with other media
C.television will take the place of newspaper
D.the writer believe some media will die out

Step Back in Time
Do you know that we live a lot longer now than the people who were born before us?One hundred years ago the average woman lived to be 45.But now,she can live until at least 80.
One of the main reasons for people living longer is that we know how to look after ourselves better.We know which foods are good for us and what we have to eat to make sure our bodies get all the healthy things they need.We know why we sometimes get ill and what to do to get better again.And we know how important it is to do lots of exercise to keep our hearts beating healthily.
But in order that we don't slip back into bad habits,let's have a look at what life was 100 years ago
Families had between 15 and 20 children,although many babies didn't live long.from lots of diseases , especially rickets (佝偻病)and scurvy(坏血病),which are bot diets.This is because many families were very poor and not able to feed their children well.
Really poor families who lived in crowded cities like London and Manchester often slept standing up,bending over a piece of string,because there was no room for them to lie down.
People didn't have fridges until the 1920s.They kept fresh food cold by storing it on windowsills(窗台板),blocks of ice,or even burying it in the garden.
Some children had to start work at the age of seven or eight to earn money for their pai lived 100 years ago,you might well be selling matchsticks(火柴杆)(a job done by many children)or working with your dad by now.

A hundred years ago many kids died at an early age.
A:Right
B:Wrong
C:Not mentioned

答案:A
解析:
文章第一段虽然提到现在女性的寿命要比一百年前长,但并没有提及一百年前女性是否比男性寿命要长,故选C。
文章第二段明确介绍了人们现在比过去长寿的原因,故选B。
文章第四段第一句说一百年前,许多孩子很小便夭折了,故选A。
文章第四段第二句话中“… rickets and scurvy , which are both caused by bad diets.”可知,佝偻病与坏血病都是由饮食不良引起的,故选A。
文章第五段提到,人们过去之所以站着睡觉是因为房子太小,没有躺下的空间,而非出于喜欢,故选B。
文章第六段只是说,直到20世纪20年代人们才有了冰箱可用,但并没有说明冰箱是谁发明的,故选C。
从文章第四段以及最后一段可以看出,一百年前,生活对于许多孩子来说都是十分不易的,故选A。

第3题:

When I first knew Mike, we lived in a small village in Scotland. It was very different from Mike’s life in London now. We went to school together on our bicycles. Every morning I went to his house and knocked on the door. Every morning Mike’s mum said, “I’m sorry, he’s a bit late this morning”, and so I had to wait. Each day we were late for school, and I remember the teacher got very annoyed with us. I never told her we were late because of Mike. Now, 25 years later, I play tennis with Mike. I usually drive him to the tennis club. I go to his flat and he opens the door and says, “I’m sorry. I’m a bit late today.” The only reason he wasn’t late for his own wedding is that we lied to him about the time! As boys we spent a lot of time out exploring on our bikes. We went walking and fishing. I didn’t like fishing because I couldn’t swim. Probably the funniest thing we did was when we stole a bottle of whiskey from my Dad. We cycled about 5 miles away to drink it in one of our favorite places. When we finished drinking it, we couldn’t cycle back – it was a long, slow walk. I’m sure we looked awful. We still do, when we come back from the pub on Friday nights. Nothing’s changed really. Oh, and I still can’t swim.

1.Mike now lives in __________.

A.a village in Scotland

B.a village near London

C.London

2.__________ got up late every morning.
