The British are the most voracious(如饥似渴的) newspaper readers in the world. They read newspapers at breakfast ; they walk to the bus reading a newspaper; they read a newspaper on bus, as they go to work; and on the way back home, after work, they are engaged in reading an evening newspaper. There are many" morning papers", both national and provincial. The most famous is The Times. Different from what many foreigners believe, this is not a government newspaper. The various newspapers usually have their own views of the Communist Morning Star. The Labor Party and the Trades Union Congress no longer have a daily newspaper to represent them. Bold headlines and a variety of photographs are features of the British press. Some newspapers, such as the sober Daily Telegraph and The Times, use photographs sparingly(节省). The more“popular”newspapers, using the small or "tabloid"(小报) format, such as the Daily Express, the Mail, the Daily Mirror and the Sun, use pictures extensively and also run strip cartoons and humorous drawings, some of which present striking pictorial comment on politics. Besides offering features common to newspapers all over the world, British newspapers specialize in pages devoted to criticism of the arts and a woman's page. One feature found in many foreign newspapers is missing in British papers:the serial(连载). Nearly all papers pay special attention to the reporting of sports and athletics. The evening newspapers are often bought because the buyer wants to know the winner of a race, or to get good tip for a race that is still to be run. There is no censorship(审查) of the press in Britain (except in wartime), though of course all newspapers—like private persons—are responsible for what they publish, and can be sued for libel (为诽谤而被起诉) for publishing articles that go beyond the bounds of decency(正派), or for ignorance of court” (e.g. calling a man a murderer while he is still being tried.Such cases are not often) 69.Which of the following does NOT serve as an evidence(证据) that the British are the great newspaper readers? A.They read newspapers at breakfast. B.They read newspapers at work. C.They read newspapers on bus. D.They read newspapers on the way back home. 70.Many of foreigners think that_______. A.The Times is an organ (喉舌) of the government B.The Times has its own views on politics C.The Times is the most famous newspaper in the world D.The Times pays too much attention to the reporting of political events 71.British newspapers are characterized by ________. A.bold headlines B.various kinds of photographs C.striking pictorial comment on politics D.both A and B 72.Which of the following conclusions can NOT be drawn from the passage? A.Englishmen always take every possible chance to read newspapers. B.In Britain, newspapers must be carefully examined by the authorities(当局) before their publication for fear that they present anything offensive. C.Few British newspapers publish libelous articles. D.The Times is one of the world-famous newspapers. 69-72 BADB

In a great many cities, hundreds of people ride bicycles to work everyday. In New City, some bike riders have even formed a group called Bike for a Better City. They declare that if more people rode bicycles to work, there would be fewer automobiles(汽车) in the downtown part of the city and so less dirty air from car engines. For several years this group has been trying to get the city government to help bicycle riders. For example. They want the city to draw special lanes(通道) for bicycles only on some of the main streets, because when bicycle riders must use the same lanes as cars, there are accidents. Bike for a Better city feels that if there were special lanes more people would use bikes. But no bicycles lanes have been drawn. Not everyone thinks they are a good idea-----they say it will slow traffic. Some store owners on the main streets don't like the idea------they say that if there is less traffic, they will have less business. The city government has not yet decided what to do. It wants to keep everyone happy. On weekends, Central Park----the largest place of open ground in New York----is closed to cars, and the roads may be used by bicycles only. But Bike for a Better City says that this is not enough and keeps fighting to get bicycle lanes downtown.
73. The bike riders suggest that _____________. A. bicycles should be used instead of cars B. bicycle lanes should be drawn C. fewer buses or cars should be used D. the number of special lanes should be increased 74. The advantage(好处) of the special lanes is that _______. A. they will make cars and buses run slowly B. they will make it easier for bike riders to go to parks C .they will make the city more beautiful D. the lanes will prevent accidents 75. The government has not decided whether special lanes should be drawn ______. A. so that everyone is disappointed B. because there are different opinions C. because most people travel by train D. because Bike for a Better City is not strong enough
