阅读理解。     Some teenagers think that newspapers are boring and only for adults. But that"s not true. There are
many interesting stories in the paper. You just need to make clear what you are looking at. "I spend about
half an hour reading newspapers every day," said 15-year-old Gao Ming from Beijing. "I"m interested in
things happening at school." School news is just one kind of news story in newspapers. There"s also world
news: from international problems to pop stars.
     Read the newspaper carefully, we"ll find different types of articles on the pages:
     News stories-these stories are about events. Reporters try to show all points of a story to help readers
understand what happened. Reporters try to speak to as many people as possible. They also use pictures
and numbers to show the readers that the stories are true. The newspaper Teenagers has lots of news stories
on the news page and front page. When we read them, we learn more about the facts, not the writers" ideas.
     Opinion writing-opinion writing is usually about something happening right now. But it isn"t just facts.
Here writers add their own opinions to the news. Writers pick only the facts that help back up their ideas.
They make readers believe that they are telling the truth. This is usually the kind of story that gets people
thinking. Go to "Speak Out" on Page Two for an example of opinion writing in Teenagers.
    Advertisement-Don"t get happy too early when you read them. Those sweet words and lovely pictures
are just ways to get us interested in their products! People have to pay to put advertisements in newspapers! 1. The underlined sentence "You need to make clear what you are looking at." Means that the readers
    "______".

阅读理解。    Have you ever seen a horse with toes (脚趾)? Millions of years ago, horses had many toes. They had
four toes on each front foot. They had three toes on each back foot. The horses were smaller than cats.
   These small horses lived in the forest. Their many toes helped the horses run over the soft wet ground.
    It was very hot in the forest. But the weather changed. It became cold. Many trees couldn"t live in cold
weather. The trees died and fell. Open field took the place of (代替) forests. The sun made the ground dry
and hard (坚硬).
    Horses began to change too. They began to get bigger. This took a long time. On the dry hard land,
horses needed only their middle toes for running. Their middle toes became hard. After a long time horses
had only one hard toe on each foot. We call this hard toe a hoof (马蹄). 1. Long ago, the horse had four toes on each of its ______. [     ]
