1._______________ With the arrival of the age of "information economy", intellectual work is becoming a more important source of wealth than manufacturing. Organizations in all walks of life are doing more to spread their information. So people of the Public Relations are hired to speak for them. A lot of our news is actually collected from press releases and reports of events intentionally staged for journalists. In the information age, journalists spend their time, not investigating, but passing on the words of a spokesperson. 2._________________ There is a joke in the novel Scoop about the newspaper"s owner, Lord Copper. The editors can never disagree with him. When he"s right about something they answer "definitely", and when he"s wrong they say "to some extent, Lord Copper." It seems reasonable to suppose that, in the real world, the opinions of such powerful people still influence the journalists and editors who work for them. 3.________________ In countries where the news is not officially controlled, it may be provided by commercial organizations who depend on advertising. The news has to attract viewers and maintain its audience ratings. I suspect that some stories get air-time just because there happen to be exciting pictures to show. In Britain, we have the tabloid newspapers which millions of people read simply for entertainment. There is progressively less room for historical background, or statistics, which are harder to present as a sensational story. 4._______________ There is an argument that with spreading access to the internet and cheap technology for recording sound and images we will all be able to find exactly the information we want. People around the world will be able to publish their own eye-witness accounts and compete with the widely-accepted news-gatherers on equal terms. But what it will mean also is that we"ll be subjected to a still greater amount of nonsense and lies. Any web log may contain the latest information of the year, or equally, a made-up story that you will never be able to check. 5._______________ Maybe the time has come to do something about it, and I don"t just mean changing your choice of TV channel or newspaper. In a world where everyone wants you to listen to their version, you only have two choices: switch off altogether or start looking for sources you can trust. The investigative journalist of the future is everyone who wants to know the truth. |

Children, especially boys, tend to idealize their fathers when they are young. Every little boy wants to grow up to be just like his father, and every little girl thinks her father is the smartest man on the earth. It"s not very easy to be a good father, but it"s not that difficult either. Children will truly enjoy spending time with their fathers, not just when they are kids, but even when they are adults. Not all children communicate well with their fathers. Communication is often left to mothers, while fathers dispense advice as and when necessary. Don"t expect all conversations to center around the dinner table. Go to your children"s bedrooms and talk to them about school, their teachers or their friends. Remember that the conversation cannot be one-sided. When your children open up to you, you also need to open up to them. If your children come home from school feeling upset, go up to them and ask them what is the matter And if it is something which seems to you to be a silly reason to be upset, don"t voice your opinion. It may be silly to you, but to your children it is important enough. So don"t wave the topic away by telling them not to bother about such stupid things. Simply discussing their problems with them will help them feel better. Don"t shy away from having discussions about your teenage children"s love lives. Generally speaking, your children are definitely not going to discuss intimate details with you. Try to let them know that you are relaxed about topics on love. ell your children how you met your wife. It is perfectly normal for children to go through feelings for the opposite sex as they grow up, and by keeping the topic closed for discussion, you are only shutting them off from discussing their feelings with you. All they will do is turn to their friends. |
1.To children their fathers are usually very _____. |
A. kind B. great C. serious D. strong |
2.From the second paragraph we can know that _____. |
A .some children don"t like their fathers at all B. talking with children around the dinner table is unnecessary C.it is better for fathers to communicate more with their children D. mothers should communicate less with their children. |
3.Suppose your children are worried about something you should _____. |
A. have a talk with them B. express your opinion C .keep silent D. let them alone |
4.Which of the following has the closest meaning to the underlined word "intimate" in Paragraph 4? |

To: "The Shoe People" inquiries@shoepeople.com From: "John Trimbald" jtconstruction@img.com <> To Whom it May Concern, I have trusted the Shoe People to protect the feet of my employees for over ten years now. I recently purchased a few pairs of boots from your company for my crew. Though my men were initially satisfied with the boots, the soles(鞋底) began to fall apart on them after just twelve weeks. This was extremely surprising considering they came with a six year warranty(担保). The boots are unsafe to wear because my men are pouring hot concrete. Please respond as soon as possible with instructions on how I can return the boots and receive a refund. Thank you, John Trimbald, Foreman, JT Construction | To: John Trimbald" jtconstruction@img.com From: "The Shoe People" <inquiries@shoepeople.com>" Dear Mr. Trimbald, Thank you for your e-mail concerning the poor quality of our rubber soled black workboots. A representative will be by your office next week to pick up the damaged boots. We apologize for any inconvenience this has caused you and your crew. Along with five new pairs of workboots for your crew (we included one extra pair), we have enclosed a free year"s supply of spray(喷雾). In our retail stores, this spray is always recommended to buyers who work on heated floors. This should have been brought to your attention at the time of your initial order (received by telephone on October 12, 2007). Please excuse our oversight. To date we have had no complaints about these workboots from customers who have used the protector spray. However, should you use the spray and find that you are still unsatisfied with the boots, please return the boots and spray for a full refund. Thank you for supporting The Shoe People. Have a Happy New Year.

Despite the common belief that girls are better at relationships,most boys consider their friends a very important part of their lives,and boys may actually be better at keeping friendships than girls are.A recent study of 10to15yearold boys and girls found that girls" friendships are actually more fragile.Girls tend to say and do hurtful things to each other more frequently than boys,and girls are more hurt by the end of a friendship. Boys are the living definition of the phrase "peer group";they love games with rules,competition, and doing things together.Boys seem to enjoy,even need the opportunity to test themselves against others,and many lasting friendships begin in karate (空手道) class or on the basketball court. Competence and skill are widely respected;being picked last for a team or left out altogether is an experience that can haunt (萦绕心头) a boy for years. As boys mature,the friendship becomes even more important,and it frequently widens to include girls.During the teen years,friends can become the most important part of a boy"s life-and a part in which his parents are not included.The confusion of being a teenager leads boys to form close bonds with friends.There is the sense for many boys that a friend is someone who is "always there for me", someone he can trust.They may be partners in crime or partners in study,but the friendship of adolescent boys can run surprisingly deep. | 1.The common belief of adults is that boys ________. | A.don"t care about others as much as girls B.don"t value friendships as much as girls C.have the same friendship as girls D.have healthier friendship than girls | 2.According to the passage,________. | A.boys usually build friendships by playing competitive games B.boys like to have small groups of friends C.boys" friendships seldom result in anyone being hurt D.boys" friendships can hardly end in failure | 3.The author mentions the study in Para.2 to prove ________. | A.girls value relationships more than boys B.most boys consider their friends very important C.boys may be better at keeping friendships than girls D.boys may be more active in a friendship | 4.As a boy gets older,he tends to ________. | A.widen his circle of friends to include his parents B.shift his focus from his friends to himself C.leave his parents out of his friends D.be confused about what a friendship is | 5.What"s the best title of the passage? | A.Friendships Between Boys and Girls B.Boys and Their Friendship C.Childhood and Adolescent Friendship D.Tips on Making Friends with Boys |
