A newspaper, published usually on a daily or weekly basis, has the main function of reporting news. Many newspapers also furnish their readers with other pieces of useful information, such as weather reports, TV program broadcast, and other kinds of information. They provide commentary on politics, economics, arts and culture. In nearly all cases and in different degrees, newspapers depend on commercial advertising for their income.
A survey said that nearly six out of ten adults in the United States and Canada read a newspaper every day, and seven out of ten read a paper each weekend. By the time they see a newspaper, most people have already heard about breaking news stories on TV or on the radio. Readers depend on newspapers to provide detailed information and analysis (分析) which TV and radio almost don’t offer. Newspapers not only tell readers that an event has happened but also help readers understand what led to the event and how it will affect the world.
The members of a large newspaper work under the nonstop pressure of deadlines to bring news to readers as quickly as their minds, bodies and the technology they use permit. Reporters, photographers, artists, and editors find the materials and form articles and graphics (图片) —sometimes in just a few hours. Page designers combine articles, photos, advertisements, and eye-catching headlines into page layouts (版面), then quickly print the paper out. Printing system may work through the night to print out more than 60,000 copies per hour.

A. How many people read newspapers. B. Why many people read newspapers.

Researches have shown that music has an important effect on one’s body and mind. In fact, there is a growing field of health care known as Music Therapy, which uses music to treat diseases. Even hospitals are beginning to use music therapy. This is not surprising, as music affects the body and mind in many powerful ways.
Researches have shown that quick music can make a person feel more alert (警觉的), while slow music can produce a calm, deep thinking state. Also, researches have found that music can change brainwave activity levels. This can help the brain to change speeds more easily on its own as needed, which means that music can bring lasting benefits to your state of mind, even after you’ve stopped listening.
Breathing and heart rate can also be influenced by music. This can mean slower breathing, slower heart rate, and a relaxing response. This is why music and music therapy can help reduce the damaging effects of long-term stress, greatly promoting not only relaxation, but health.
Music can also be used to bring about a more positive state of mind, by helping to keep worries away. Music has also been found to bring many other benefits, such as lowering blood pressure and reducing the risk of strokes among others. It is no surprise that so many people are considering music as an important tool to help the body become or stay healthy.

I found a website that has changed my life. The website is wishuponahero.com and it is all about people helping others, not expecting anything in return.
I am a single mom with a son. My son’s 12th birthday was on October 29th, 2007. Knowing that I didn’t have money to buy him a birthday gift had broken my heart. So, I decided to post a wish on wishuponahero.com for people to send my son birthday cards.
Many cards just started coming in and my little son was very excited and this went on for about three weeks. The smile on his face and the sparkle (闪光) in his eyes brought me to tears.
Then, at the end of November, he started thinking about Christmas and he already knew that there would not be a tree for him because we didn’t have enough money. However it didn’t matter to him. All he talked about was how much he wanted to make other children smile. So he decided to earn money to buy Christmas cards and send them to other children from poor families. My son went out daily and raked leaves and walked some dogs to make money. Not only did he buy cards, but he also made enough money to buy all the stamps and lollipops to send with the cards. He sent out about 100 cards. Doing this brought him the same smile and sparkle in his eyes as the birthday cards that he received did.

61. What did the son do for other poor children on Christmas?
A. He sent them his own Christmas tree.
B. He earned money to send them cards with candy.
C. He raked leaves and walked dogs for them.
D. He made some lollipops to make them smile.
62. Why was there sparkle in the son’s eyes at the end of the story?
A. He thought of his birthday cards and other good people.
B. He earned a lot of money by himself.
C. He thought of what his mother had done for him.
D. He was glad and excited to help other poor children.
63. What can we conclude from the story?
