11、rican newspaper has been around for about three hundred years. In 1721, the printer James Franklin. Benjamins older brother, started the New England Courant, and that was what we might recognize today as a real newspaper. He filled his paper with stories of adventure, articles on art, on famous peop
12、le, and on all sorts of political subjects. Three centuries after the appearance of Franklins Courant, few believe that newspapers in their present printed form will remain alive for long Newspaper complies are losing advertisers(广告商), readers, market value and in some cases, their sense of purpose
13、at a speed that would not have been imaginable just several years ago .The chief editor(主编)of the times said recently, “At places where they gather, editors ask one another, How are you?, as if they have just come out of the hospital or a lost law came.”An article about the newspaper appeared on the
14、 website of the Guardian, under the headline “NOT DEAD YET”.Perhaps not, but the rise of the Internet which has made the daily newspaper look slow and out of step with the world, has brought about a real sense of death. Some American newspapers have lost 42% of their market value in the past three y
15、ears. The New York Times Company has seen its stock(股票) drop by 54% since the end of 2004, with much of the loss coming in the past year. A manager at Deutsche Bank suggested that stock-holders sell off their Times stock .The Washington Post Comply has prevented the trouble only by changing part of
16、its business to education, and its testing and test-preparation service now brings in at least half the companys income. 21. What can we learn about the New England Courant?A.

18、 of the following found a new way for its development?A. The Washington Post B. The GuardianC. The New York Times. D. New England Courant24. How does the author seem to feel about the future of newspapers?A. Satisfied B. Hopeful C. Worried D. SurprisedBThroughout the history of the arts, the nature
19、of creativity has remained constant to artists. No matter what objects they select, artists are to bring forth new forces and forms that cause change to find poetry where no one has ever seen or experienced it before. Landscape(风景) is another unchanging element of art. It can be found from ancient t
20、imes through the 17th-century Dutch painters to the 19th-century romanticists and impressionists. In the 1970s Alfred Leslie, one of the new American realists, continued this practice. Leslie sought out the same place where Thomas Cole, a romanticist, had produced paintings of the same scene a centu
21、ry and a half before. Unlike Cole who insists on a feeling of loneliness and the idea of finding peace in nature, Leslie paints what he actually sees. In his paintings, there is no particular change in emotion, and he includes ordinary things like the highway in the background. He also takes advanta
22、ge of the latest developments of color photography(摄影术) to help both the eyes and the memory when he improves his painting back in his workroom. Besides, all art begs the age-old question: What is real? Each generation of artists has shown their understanding of reality in one form or another. The i
23、mpressionists saw reality in brief emotional effects, the realists in everyday subjects and in forest scenes, and the Cro-Magnon cave people in their naturalistic drawings of the animals in the ancient forests. To sum up, understanding reality is a necessary struggle for artists of all periods. Over
24、 thousands of years the function of the arts has remained relatively constant. Past or present, Eastern or Western, the arts are a basic part of our immediate experience. Many and different are the faces of art, and together they express the basic need and hope of human beings. 25. What is the autho

26、les curiosity about the past. B. They make people interested in everyday experience. C. They are considered important for variety in form. D. They are regarded as a mirror of the human situation. 27. Which of the following is the main topic of the passage?A. History of the arts. B. Basic questions o
27、f the arts. C. New developments in the arts. D. Use of modern technology in the arts. CMr. Peter Johnson, aged twenty-three, battled for half an hour to escape from his trapped car yesterday when it landed upside down in three feet of water. Mr. Johnson took the only escape routethrough the boot(行李箱
28、). Mr. Johnsons car had finished up in a ditch(沟渠)at Romney Marsin, Kent after skidding(打滑)on ice and hitting a bank. “Fortunately, the water began to come in only slowly, ”Mr. Johnson said. “I couldnt force the doors because they were jammed against the walls of the ditch and I dared not open the w
29、indows because I knew water would come flooding in. ”Mr. Johnson, a sweet salesman of Sitting Home, Kent, first tried to attract the attention of other motorists by sounding the horn and hammering on the roof and boot. Then he began his struggle to escape. Later he said, “It was really a half penny
30、that saved my life. It was the only coin I had in my pocket and I used it to unscrew the back seat to get into the boot. I hammered desperately with a hammer trying to make someone hear, but no help came. ”It took ten minutes to unscrew the seat, and a further five minutes to clear the sweet samples
31、 from the boot. Then Mr. Johnson found a wrench(扳手)and began to work on the boot lock. Fifteen minutes passed by. “It was the only chance I had. Finally it gave, but as soon as I moved the boot lid, the water and mud poured in. I forced the lid down into the mud and scrambled clear as the car filled up. ”His hands and arms cut and bruised(擦伤), Mr. Johnson got to Beckett Farm nearby, where he was looked after
