    Visitors to Britain are sometimes surprised to learn that newspapers there have such a large circulation. The “quality” newspapers are often held up as an example of impartial journalism, but the Daily Mirror and the Daily Express usually impress newspapermen even more because they both sell about four million copies every day. British families generally buy a newspaper every morning and frequently take two or three on Sundays, but the vast circulation figures obtained are not only due to the Englishman’s thirst for news.Because the newspapers are all published nationally, copies can be delivered everywhere at the same time.

Though people abroad often know the names of the national papers, they seldom realize that there is another branch of the British press which sells almost as many copies. Local newspapers have a weekly circulation of 13 million. Almost every town and country area has one. Nearly all of them hold their own finance and many of them are very profitable.

These papers are written almost entirely for readers interested in local events — births, weddings, deaths, council meetings and sports — but the content is naturally influenced by the kind of community they serve. Editors prefer to rely on a small staff of people who all know the district well. A great deal of local news is regularly supplied by clubs and churches in the neighbourhood and it does not get out of date as quickly as national news. If there is no room for it in this week’s edition, an item can sometimes be held until the following week.

The editor must never forget that the success of any newspaper depends on advertising. He is usually anxious to keep the good will of local businessmen for this reason. But if the newspaper is well written and the news items are carefully chosen to attract local readers, the businessmen are grateful for the opportunity to keep their products in the public eye.

Local newspapers do not often comment on problems of national importance and editors rarely hold with taking sides on political questions. But they can often be of service to the community in expressing public feeling on local issues. A newspaper can sometimes persuade the council to take action to provide better shopping facilities, improve transport in the area and preserve local monuments and places of interest.

1.The Daily Mirror impresses newspapermen more because_____.

A.it has a larger circulation than many other famous papers

B.it is of better quality than many other papers

C.it is sold nationally

D.it is delivered everywhere in Britain

2.Local papers are preferred by readers who_____.

A.are interested in news B.are much interested in local events

C.want to get news as quickly as possible D.work in churches and clubs

3.According to the passage,businessmen would like to advertise in papers if _____.

A.the papers are well written B.the news items are carefully chosen

C.the news involves them D.the papers are popular and can attract readers

4.The last paragraph implies(暗示)that ______.

A.local papers seldom comment on politics

B.local papers can sometimes influence policy making

C.local papers are more concerned about their own communities

D.local papers do not take sides on problems of national importance

    Demand for the Chinese tech companys devices(设备) is red hot even though the country’s overall market for smartphones is getting smaller Huawei's China sales rocketed more than 20% in the final quarter of 2018, and experts say that's partly due to the US govenment's global campaign against the company.

“The latest tension between the US and China raised the patriotism(爱国主义) in Chinese consumers said Jusy Hong, an analyst at research firm IHS Markit

He pointed out that some Chinese companies encouraged employees to buy Huawei phones late last year. The moves were a gesture of support after the firm's chief financial officer was arrested in Canada in early December at the request of the United States.

Huawei's booming sales show how major parts of its business continue to increase even as the United States tries to persuade other countries to shut Huawei products out of 5G wireless networks and pursues(追究) criminal charges against it. The company expects to overtake Samsung as the world's biggest smartphone maker by next year.

Huawei sold 30 million phones in China in the last three months of 2018, nearly three times as many as Apple(AAPL), according to data published this week by research firms Canalys and IDC. Apple's sales plunged almost 20%.

Huawei's success in China, the world's largest smartphone market, is more than about geopolitics(地缘政治). Chinese consumers love its flagshiphigh -end- phones because they have great cameras cutting edge technology and cost less than the latest iPhones, according to analysts. And by offering a selection of cheaper phones, Huawei is able to target a bigger market.

It also benefited from the troubles this year at ZTE (ZTCOF), a rival Chinese smartphone and telecommunications equipment maker. ZTE was banned by the US government from buying vital American parts for months last year.

1.Why did Huawei's China sales increase greatly according to the article?

A.Because the company's devices are always popular worldwide.

B.Because Chinese consumers' patriotism was aroused

C.Because the government encourages people to buy Huawei devices.

D.Because the country's overall market for smartphones is getting bigger.

2.What can we conclude from the third paragraph?

A.Huawei’s chief financial officer was arrested in Canada due to the US's request.

B.All Chinese companies showed their support to Huawei with their purchase.

C.Jusy Hong thought the United States arrested Huawei's chief financial officer.

D.Jusy Hong thought the arrest of Huawei's chief financial officer is unfair.

3.How do you understand the underlined word in the fifth paragraph?

A.increased greatly by. B.reduced greatly to.

C.dropped greatly by. D.remained steady.

4.Why is Huawei's success in China more than about geopolitics?

A.Because Huawei has the largest smartphone market in the world.

B.Because Huawei's success is only limited within China mainland.

C.Because Huawei has the ability to target a bigger market in the world.

D.Because Chinese consumers are quite satisfied with Huawei smartphones.
