WALKING & CYCLING

BUSES

Bus companies are using new buses: some run on new fuels which produce less pollution; some have easier access for disabled and old people. There are special traffic lanes (行车道)to make bus journeys easier and more reliable. So do something to help solve the pollution problem—let the bus take you to work and your children to school.

TRAINS

高二英语单项填空中等难度题查看答案及解析

How often do you read a newspaper? About 10 million people read every day in the UK. The most popular newspapers are the tabloids(小报), which are full of celebrity(名人) news and how did these papers get their stories?

Simple! Some have been breaking the law! They’ve been doing this by hacking into people’s mobile phones and stealing private information. Police found out about this back in 2005. At the time, reporters working on The News of The World were accused of hacking the phones of the royal family and other famous people.

But it soon became clear that other celebrities were also victims. They include author J.K. Rowling, actor Hugh Grant and actress Sienna Miller. As a result of the scandal(丑闻), Murdoch(the owner of The News of The World) was forced to close down The News of The World, and David Cameron(the former British Prime Minister) announced that there would be an inquiry(调查) into the press.

Lord Justice Leveson(a leading English judge) was appointed to lead the inquiry. On opening the first session Leveson said, “The press provides an essential check on all aspects of public life. That’s why any failure within the media affects all of us. At the heart of this inquiry, therefore may be one simple question: who guards the guardians?” The inquiry is focusing on three major areas: the relationship between the press and 1. ...the public. 2. ...the police. 3. ...politics.

The big question is, what changes are going to be made as a result of the inquiry? Defenders of freedom of the press are worried that journalists won’t be allowed to investigate freely, and that new laws will be introduced to limit what they can and can’t do. At present, journalists often use undercover techniques to get a story, especially if it’s in the public interest.

1.How do the tabloids get news about celebrities?

A.They all have to break the law to get the private news.

B.Some use illegal ways to get private information.

C.They get celebrities’ private information by phoning.

D.They steal private information by using a mobile phone.

2.What is Leveson’s attitude to the press?

A.He has pity on the press.

B.He is against the press.

C.He will punish the press.

D.He will be good to the press.

3.What does the underlined word refer to in the fourth paragraph?

A.Lord Justice. B.The press. C.The common people. D.The police.

4.What is the best title of the article?

A.Journalists in trouble. B.The law in trouble.

C.Celebrities in trouble. D.Lord Justice in trouble.
