BEIJING, Oct. 8(Xinhua)——There are ten times as many Chinese newspapers and magazines than there were 30 years ago. That’s when the country adopted the reform and opening-up policy.

    Figures from the General Administration of Press and Publication (GAPP)show there were 186 newspapers and 930 magazines in China in 1978. Today, the country has 2,081 newspapers and 9,363 different magazines.

    In the meantime, official figures show China has some 600 publishing houses producing nearly 300,000 kinds of books. That’s a dramatic increase from the 105 publishers of the past that produced only 10,000 different books.

    Rapid economic development and universal education since China adopted the reform has helped fuel the need for more information sources.

    Under the market economy, hundreds of publishing houses and newspapers have taken steps to restructure management systems into corporations listed on the stock market.

    The legal system overseeing the news and publishing industries in China has also changed over the last three decades. Since 1990 a law and five relevant(相關(guān)) regulations were adopted in 1990 to govern the sectors.

    Since it started in 1993, digital publishing has flourished. Its industrial volume amounted to 20 billion yuan (2.93 billion U.S. dollars) in 2006. More than 500,000 kinds of digital books were produced last year alone in China, which is more than any other country in the world.

    A. Digital books take the place of common ones in China.

    B. China has more newspapers and magazines.

    C. More information sources are developing with the economy.

There are ten times as many newspapers and magazines because ________.

    B. there are more readers along with the bigger population.

    C. economic and education have developed under the policy.

    D. the legal system overseeing the publishing industries has changed.

Which is true according to this text?

    A. The development of publishing industry in the past was out of control.

    B. Hundreds of publishing houses have closed down and turned to stock market.

    C. China adopted the reform and opening-up policy about 20 years ago.

    D. China produces more digital books than any other country.

The underlined word “flourished” in Paragraph 7 probably means ________.

    A. first appeared                   B. fell down

    C. well developed                   D. successfully ended

You will probably read this text in the ________ column of XINHUA NET?

    A. culture and education                B. entertainment
