British newspapers are among the oldest and most famous in the world. But recently big changes have seen these traditional publications try to fit the modern world. After 216 years,The nmes (《泰晤士報》) has changed its size to become much smaller. In fact,the paper has cut its size in half from a broadsheet to tabloid.

InBritainthe newspaper market is divided between the larger broadsheets and the smaller tabloids. These terms refer to the size of the papers' pages but there is also a clear difference in content. Broadsheets such as The Times,The Gwardian(《衛(wèi)報》) and Daily Telegraph 《每日電訊報》) are serious papers. They cover a broad range of political,economic and international is?sues. Their stories are also reasonably long and use quite formal language.

Tabloids have far more stories about less serious issues such as celebrities' love lives. Their stories are shorter and use more simple language. Tabloids often have bigger pictures. Britain's bestselling newspaper,The Sun,is a tabloid and has a naked (棵體的) girl on page three every?day.

By changing to the size of a tabloid,The Times is following in the footsteps of a less fa?mous broadsheet paper The Independent (《妝:報》) .It changed to tabloid last year and saw its sales increase greatly. Although both papers have switched to the smaller size,the content of the papers has remained the same. They are both still serious papers.

The two papers claim that people find the smaller size easier to handle when they travel to work on the bus or the train in the morning. Instead of calling the new style of their paper tab?loid,the paper says its new size is "compact"(緊湊型) .

(   ) 5. What is the difference between tabloid and compact?

   A. They have the same size and meaning but different calling.

   B. Tabloid is a kind of smaller paper with short stories,pictures and celebrities' affairs.

   C. Compact is the same kind of paper as its broadsheet with the same contents.

   D. They are in the same size but different contents:popular―serious.

(   ) 6. According to the text,which can best describe the two kinds of papers?

   A. Broadsheets are larger in size while tabloids are smaller.

   B. Tabloids are less serious than broadsheets.

   C. Broadsheets contain more news than tabloids.

   D. They are different in size,content and the style of language.

(   ) 7. In which of the following newspapers would you find more news about the personal life of the famous soccer star Beckham?

   A. The Sun   B. The Times

   C. The Independent   D. The Guardian

(   ) 8. According to the passage we can infer the main reason for The Times changing into the tabloid is that         .

   A. it wants to become convenient for people to carry

   B. it wants to increase its circulation (發(fā)行量)

   C. it intends to follow what The Independent has done

   D. it is unlikely to stay in business if it does not change

Someone said that encouragement is simply reminding a person of the " shoulders" he's standing on,the heritage (遺產(chǎn),繼承物) he's been given. That's what happened when a young man,the son of a star baseball player,was drafted by one of the minor league teams. As hard as he tried,his first season was disappointing,and by midseason he expected to be released any day.

The coaches were bewildered (迷惑) by his failure because he possessed all the characteris?tics of a superb athlete,but he couldn't seem to incorporate (組合) those advantages into a coor?dinated (協(xié)調(diào)的) effort. He seemed to have become disconnected from his potential.

His future seemed darkest one day when he had already struck out his first time at bat. Then he stepped up to the batter's box again and quickly ran up two strikes. The catcher called a timeout and trotted to the pitcher's mound for a conference. While they were busy,the um?pire,standing behind the plate,spoke casually to the boy.

Then play resumed (重新恢復) ,the next pitch was thrown and the young man knocked it out of the park. That was the turning point. From then on,he played the game with a new con?fidence and power that quickly drew the attention of the parent team,and he was called up to the majors.

On the day he was leaving for the city,one of his coaches asked him what had caused such a turnaround. The young man replied that it was the encouraging remark the umpire had made that day when his baseball career had seemed doomed.

"He told me I reminded him of all the times he had stood behind my dad in the batter's box," the boy explained. "He said I was holding the bat just the way Dad had held it. And he told me, 'I can see his genes in you; you have your father's arms.,After that,whenever I swung the bat,I just imagined I was using Dad's arms instead of my own."

(   ) 5. According to the passage,the greatest trouble to the young man is         .

   A. he was the son of a star baseball player

   B. he had his potential characteristics

   C. he was unable to put his potential into accomplishing something

   D. he had no confidence and power

(   ) 6. Which of the following words can best describe the young man's change?

   A. Encouraging words. B. The characteristics of a superb athlete.

   C. New confidence and power. D. His father's genes.

(   ) 7. What does the underlined word "doomed" refer to?

   A. Changed. B. Destroyed. C. Developed. D. Improved.

(   ) 8. According to the passage,which can best describe the future of the young man?

   A. Taking the encouraging words as his motto,the young man would change his oc?cupation.

   B. Bearing the encouraging words in mind,the young man would have a promising future.

   C. Encouraged by the words,the young man would try no efforts to realize his goals.

   D. Remembering the words,the young man would incorporate his disadvantages.

When we were seniors,we began to think about college. Kyle decided on Georgetown,and I was going to Duke. I knew that we would always be friends,that the miles would never be a problem. He was going to be a doctor,and I was going for business on a football scholar?ship. Kyle was valedictorian (致告別辭的人) of our class.

I teased him all the time about being a nerd (書呆子) .He had to prepare a speech for gradu?ation. I was so glad it wasn't me having to get up there and speak.

Graduation day arrived ― I saw Kyle and he looked great. He was one of those guys that really found himself during high school. He filled out and actually looked good in glasses. He had more dates than me and all the girls loved him!

Boy,sometimes I was jealous. Today was one of those days. I could see that he was nervous about his speech. So,I smacked (拍打) him on the back and said, "Hey,big guy,you'll be great!"

He looked at me with one of those looks (the really grateful one) and smiled. "Thanks," he said. As he started his speech,he cleared his throat,and began. "Graduation is a time to thank those who helped you make it through those tough years. Your parents,your teachers,your siblings (兄弟姐妹) ,maybe a coach... but mostly your friends. I am here to tell all of you that being a friend to someone is the best gift you can give them. I am going to tell you a story." .

I stared at my friend in disbelief as he told the story of the first day we met. He had planned to kill himself over the weekend. He talked of how he had cleaned out his locker so his Mom wouldn't have to do it later and was carrying his stuff home. He looked hard at me and gave me a little smile. " Thankfully,I was saved. My friend saved me from doing the unspeaka?ble."

I heard the gasp go through the crowd as this handsome,popular boy told us all about his weakest moment. I saw his mom and dad looking at me and smiling that same grateful smile. Not until that moment did I realize its depth.

Never underestimate (對.... 估計不足) the power of your actions. With one small gesture you can change a person's life. For better or for worse. God puts us all in each other's lives to impact one another in some way. Look for God in others.

"Friends are angels who lift us to our feet when our wings have trouble remembering how to fly."

(   ) 5. In what way did the writer save his friend,Kyle?

(   ) 6. What does the underlined phrase "filled out" in the passage really mean?

   A. Made out. B. Made fat.

   C. Made more complete. D. Made for.

(   ) 7. Which can best describe the meaning of the sentence "Not until that moment did I realize its depth"?

   A. I knew all the time what I had done had tremendous impact on my friend.

   B. I did know something of the story my friend told until the very moment.

   C. I realized the meaning of the friendship between us at that moment.

   D. I wasn't aware that what I'd done had great influence on my friend.

(   ) 8. What can be inferred from the passage?

   A. Being a friend to someone is the best gift you can give them.

   B. Not until that moment did I realize its depth.

   C. Sometimes your small behavior would be of great value to affect other person's life.

   D. When we graduate,we should thank those who helped us make it through those tough years.
