When people find out that I am a journalist, they often ask me: What do you think about the future of newspapers?
I tell them that I think the future of communications is moving online. People expect me to be fearful for the future of print. After all, in some people’s minds I wouldn’t be able to build a career in journalism if it all moves online. However, strangely enough, I’m actually comforted by the fact that online journalism is becoming usual. I am a blogger who has always been able to find a home for my writing online.
Since I began writing blogs, I have become aware of how many people you can reach with online writing. Compare this to the newspapers circulation base, and you will have a strong reason for online journalism.
In her successful blog post titled The Job I have spent the last year learning is not the one I will have, author Jenny Surane states, “Print is an expensive product to love. And general managers, publishers and editors must now figure out a profitable way to get their news into readers’ heads,” She goes on to state that people don’t feel like picking up a newspaper now and would rather scroll(滚屏) through their Twitter feed, and get new from many different sources.
If print is dying, then a new form of communicating information is being born. The need for information has not died. If anything, it has increased. What has died, rather, is the way in which information is presented.
Now more than ever, in this age of information, there is a desire for stories on the same topic from different points of view. The printing industry can keep pace with the need of providing a variety of sources, if it chooses to.
Now more than ever, in this age of information, there is a desire for stories on the same topic from different points of view. The printing industry can keep pace with the need of providing a variety of sources, if it chooses to.
Is the future of print grim? Maybe. But is the future of journalism of communicating information to people, grim as well? Definitely not.
1.According to Paragraph 2, the author feels ________.
A. confident about the future of his career
B. worried about the future of print
C. tired of being a newspaper journalist
D. embarrassed about online writing
2.What information is conveyed in Jenny’s blog post?
A. Twitter is not very popular.
B. It is hard to manage online journalism.
C. Print still has its own advantages.
D. People have more options to get information.
3.What does the underlined word “grim” in the last paragraph probably mean?
A. Promising B. Depressing
C. Unforgiving D. Encouraging
4.What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?
A. To explore the future of journalism.
B. To analyze the cause of print decline.
C. To explain the bright future of a journalist.
D. To introduce a successful blog post about print.

When we think about giving help to developing countries, we often think about giving money so that these countries can build schools and hospitals, buy food and medicine, or find clean water supplies.These seem to be the most important basic needs of the people we are trying to help.However, it's far from enough.Ladies and gentlemen, we've got to come up with some better ideas to help them.
I was very surprised, then, when I read about a plan to make cheap laptop computers for children in developing countries.A man called Nicholas Negroponte invented a cheap laptop computer, which can run without electricity.He decided to invent this computer after he visited a school in Cambodia.
The laptop which Mr.Negroponte has designed is a little different from the normal laptop computers you can buy in the shops.One difference is that it is covered in rubber so that it is very strong and won't be damaged easily.As an electricity supply can be a problem in developing countries, the computer also has a special handle so that children can wind the computer up to give it extra power when needed.
These special laptop computers will cost less than 100 US dollars and Mr.Negroponte wants to build as many as 15 million machines in the first year of production.The idea is that these computers will help the children's education as they will be able to access the Internet.These computers might not help the people in developing countries immediately, but by improving children's education they should help people to find their own solutions to their problems in the long term.
Another idea to help children in developing countries is to recycle old mobile phones so that they can be used again.In the UK, and, probably in many other countries too, millions of mobile phones are thrown away every year.The waste created by throwing away these old phones is very bad for the environment, so it seems to be an excellent idea to recycle them.In this way we will be able to achieve two important goals at the same time.We will reduce the waste we produce and help others.In other words, we will be able to 'kill two birds with one stone', and that is always a good thing.
1.It's an excellent idea to recycle old mobile phones because _______.
A.it reduces waste and can help others
B.it prevents waste and can earn lots of money
C.it can send the waste produced by developed countries to other countries
D.it is good for the environment and very educative for phone users
2.The author gives the example of Mr.Negroponte's cheap computers _______.
A.to show what high tech can bring us.
B.to illustrate the kindness of people in the developed countries
C.to show how to find business opportunities in developing countries
D.to give an example of how to help developing countries
3.Which of the following statements is TRUE about Mr.Negroponte's cheap computers?
A.His computers don’t need any power to function well.
B.His computers are covered with rubber so that they are very cheap.
C.His computers will help children in developing countries to have better education.
D.His computers will help people in developing countries to find all the solutions.
4.Where does this passage probably come from?
A.A magazine B.A newspaper
C.A lecture D.An advertisement
