Newspapers are dying.Electronic devices like mobile phones,pads,TVs and car radios can all be the killers.Most people believe in the long run,there is no reason• no practical reason for newspapers to survive.No matter what we do may only buy time.

Can anything save newspapers?I decided to have a try.

Many years ago,Bonnier,a Swedish publisher,set a newspaper in the former Soviet countries .After a few years,they had more newspapers in central and eastern Europe.However,these newspapers were run by a group of inexperienced people,and they didn't have enough money.In many places there were not even art directors.

I got a position in Bonnier's newspaper as an art director.

It was very difficult at first.I was really disappointed,until one day,in Londonn,when I saw performance by Cirque du Soleil. "These guys took some run﹣down entertainment,and put it to the highest possible level of performance art.M Inspiration lighted me up, "Why can't we do the same with the newspapers.We started to redesign the newspapers,one by one.

We used our imagination.We treated the whole newspaper as one piece,one composition - like music.

Music has a rhythm,has ups and downs.Design is responsible for this experience.Flipping through pages was readers' experience and I was responsible for this experience.

The front page became my personal channel to talk to the readers.My approach was simple and direct.I wanted to show my understanding of art,and of reality.I wanted to make posters,not newspapers.Not even magazines:posters.

We had determination,and we kept on trying.We experimented with type,with illustration and with photos.We kept asking:Why do we do it?What's our goal?

Design was not only about the front page.It was a part of the process.To be good was not enough.The process we made was about improving the product completely.

We adjusted the content accordingly.We improved everything to what our readers thought it should be and how they liked reading it.We kept improving and we had fun.

Soon in Poland ,our pages were named "Covers of the Year" three times in a row.One year later this newspaper,in the same country,they named it the "World's Best﹣Designed Newspaper".Two years later,the same award came to Estonia.The circulation of the newspapers kept going up.They became more and more popular.

Someone may think we are buying time,but our newspapers are alive,and growing.

(1)According to the passage,most people think newspapers       .

A.

will be replaced

B.

should be improved

C.

need to be saved

D.

may die immediately

(2)Why did the writer go to work in Bonnier's newspaper?       

A.

Art director was a well﹣paid position.

B.

It would die and he was going to save it.

C.

He hoped to get more working experience.

D.

It was a big publishing company in Europe.

(3)Which of the following is probably the writer's opinion?       

A.

Newspapers can be alive if they are designed as posters.

B.

The other newspapers can develop as quickly as Bonnier.

C.

We may only buy time no matter how we save newspapers.

D.

Newspapers won't survive unless we keep improving them.

(4)What makes the writer's newspapers survive and grow?(请用约 40 词回答)

Good morning, class!
We know that there are too many net bars around us. The Internet is popular and it makes our lives colorful. Many of us like going online very much because we can learn how to use the computer and get more information from the Internet. We can learn English. We can read some good newspapers and magazines. It can make us clever in playing computer games. We can send E-mails to our friends quickly. We can chat(聊天) freely online with our friends.

Hello Sandy,
We have just returned from our holiday. We went with our friends Edward Smith and his wife Tina to the Yorkshire Moors. This is a beautiful place. It is a natural park. There are lots of places to walk on the tops of the hills, miles of grassland with no people, just sheep and birds.
Edward, who had just come out of hospital, could not walk as far as he used to. However this meant that we walked in the mornings, and then stopped at a cafe for lunch each day, before returning to the place we live. Edward and I slept in front of the fire all afternoon, while the ladies went for another walk. Very pleasant!
I have taken lots of photos from the place we live, across the valley(峡谷)below us, of the morning sunrise, and the mist in the valley. Also, in England, the old steam powered trains(蒸汽火车)are very popular. I have taken many photos of the train and from it.
Yesterday we had the first snow of this winter. It is very early (we usually expect snow in January). It rained all day, and then snowed in the evening. Today we have bright sunshine!
Both Jenny and I are well. I don’t know if I told you, in the last E-mail, that Jenny is now working in a hotel. Although she has to work hard, people there are nice and she is enjoying the work.
Please write to us to tell us your news.

Many scientist once believed that physical similarities between identical twins are genetic(基因的),while their personalities,intelligence and other differences between them are an effect of their environment.Now scientists are discovering that the boundaries(界限)between genes and environment are not so clear.

Twins Jim Springer and Jim Lewis were adopted(领养)as babies and raised by different couples.When the Jims finally met at age 39,they discovered they had plenty in common.Both were six feet tall,180 pounds.They had the same smile and the same voice.When scientist Thomas Bouchard Jr.invited the Jim twins to his lab,people there found it very hard to tell them apart.

But the similarities didn't stop at the physical.They'd both had dogs named Toy.They had both married women named Linda and then their marriage broke up.They'd both been policemen,enjoyed music,and left love notes around the house for their wives.They had so much in common,it seemed unlikely these were just coincidences (巧合).

The Jim twins were just one of 137 sets of separated twins.Bouchard tested.When they compared the twins' IQ scores,Bouchard and his team reached a surprising conclusion(结论).They concluded that intelligence was mostly connected to genes rather than to training or education.It seemed the differences in family and environment had little effect.

However,genes can't control everything,argues geneticist Danielle Reed,who also studies twins.Reed's research shows that though nothing can truly change our DNA,environmental differences that a child experiences before birth and in their first year can sometimes affect the way the DNA behaves,making even identical twins into very different people. "What I like to say is that Mother Nature writes some things in pencil and some things in pen, "She explains. "Things written in pen you can't change.That's DNA.But things written in pencil you can. "

(1)How many physical similarities between the Jim twins are mentioned?     

A.

2.

B.

3.

C.

4.

D.

5.

(2)What did Bouchard's study find about the twins?       

A.

Each seemed to be as tall as their twin.

B.

Each had the same hobby as their twin.

C.

Each had almost the same ability as their twin.

D.

Each had about the same IQ level as their twin.

(3)What is Reed's opinion about genes and environment?    

A.

Only DNA has an effect on our development.

B.

Environment could possibly change some things about us.

C.

There are no boundaries between genes and environment.

D.

Environmental differences can sometimes change our DNA.

(4)What is the passage mainly about?       

A.

The way the DNA behaves.

B.

The similarities between the Jim twins.

C.

The connection between intelligence and families.

D.

The effects of genes on personality and intelligence.

A new contact lens(隐形眼镜片)has been developed by scientists from America,Britain and China.It can check for illnesses at any time by examining chemicals in tears.A new sensor(感应器)is used to achieve his purpose.

Scientists hope that the improvement could help to deal with sudden medical events.Dr.Zhao Yunlong said, "COVID﹣19 has had a great influence on the scientific world.And we are doing research to help people deal with similar events in the future."

When introducing the new contact lens,Dr.Guo Shiqi,a researcher at Harvard,said,"In the past,the sensor was put between the layers(层)of the lens.It didn't have direct contact(接触)with tears,But our new sensor is smaller and smarter.I t can be fixed to a lens and keep direct contact with tears.What's more,it causes no discomfort to the eye.

The contact lens has not been put to the market,but researchers are quite sure that it will be welcomed.It is especially useful for the old and those who may experience sudden medical events.

As society develops,scientists are supposed to develop more products that provide care and convenience(便利)for people.The contact lens is one of what they are researching on.Earlier,a California company developed another kind of contact lens using LED technology.It can show the heath information on the mobile phone.Steve Sinclair,head of the company,said, "We have to build something that helps you when you need it and stays of when you don't need it."

You may know that more people drink coffee than tea around the world. And that, after oil, it is the second biggest traded commodity(商品). You may also know that the drink comes from beans which are first roasted and then ground. But what else do you know about this popular drink?
It is said that the story of coffee started with an Ethiopian goatherd named Kaldi. One day Kaldi was surprised to see that his goats were behaving very strangely. Instead of grazing(吃草) quietly, they were jumping around, almost dancing. He also noticed some red “cherries” from a plant that the goats were eating. He tried some himself and was surprised by the feeling of extreme happiness and excitement. He felt like dancing too!
But it wasn’t used as a drink at first - it was used as food. The coffee berries, mixed with animal fat, were used by monks to stay awake during long hours of prayer. From Ethiopia, coffee was later cultivated in Yemen and the first hot drink was developed there around AD 1000. Three centuries later Muslims were keen coffee drinkers and as Islam spread, so did coffee. Coffee houses appeared in Cairo and Mecca.
For hundreds of years the plants were protected safely. But some beans were smuggled(偷运)out of Arabia and taken to India. In the 17th century, coffee was soon grown in a new continent. From India to Indonesia, a century later the beans were once again smuggled to Brazil. Brazil is now the largest coffee producer in the world.
It was the caffeine(咖啡因)that made the goats dance and kept the monks awake. Although it is found in other soft drinks and tea, coffee has the most caffeine. In the short term, a couple of cups of coffee can prevent fatigue and delay sleep. But several cups a day, every day, can cause anxiety and restlessness.
What is the world’s biggest traded commodity?
A. Oil   B. Coffee   C. Tea
Why did the goatherd want to dance?
A. Because he liked to dance with his goats.
B. Because he found his goats behaving strangely.
C. Because he ate some red “cherries” from a plant.
Which of the following events came first?
A. Coffee houses appeared in Mecca.
B. Coffee became a drink.
C. Coffee spread as Islam spread.
Which sentence is true?
A. Monks were the first to drink coffee.
B. Too much coffee can make people anxious.
C. Brazilians liked drinking coffee the most.
Around the world more people drink coffee than tea because _____.
A. coffee berries can be eaten

Galileo Galilei was born in Pisa, Italy, in 1564. His father taught music while his mother cared for kids at home. The family was not wealthy, but Galileo's parents paid for him to go to school.

At first Galileo planned to become a doctor, but he changed his mind. He liked a different kind of science-physics. In Galileo's time, not much was known about how objects moved. Centuries earlier, a Greek(希腊人)named Aristotle had written down his ideas about movements, and everyone seemed to believe them. Galileo questioned those ideas and did experiments (实验)that showed how things really worked. For example, Aristotle thought that a heavier object would fall faster than a lighter one of the same size and shape. No one had ever really tested this idea. It just seemed to be true. Then Galileo came along, dropped two balls from a high tower, and discovered that they hit the ground at the same time!

In later years, Galileo became interested in how the stars and planets move. He watched the sky with a telescope(望远镜)he built himself. Once again, he saw things no one had ever seen before. For example, he saw that the moon was not smooth. Then he noticed that the sun had spots (斑点)that seemed to move. Galileo realized from his observations (观察)that the earth was moving around the sun. A Polish (波兰的)scientist named Copernicus had said this recently, but no one believed him. Galileo knew that Copernicus was right. Unluckily, Galileo's announcement got him into trouble with the Catholic Church. The Catholic Church said that the earth was                at the center of the universe (宇宙)with the sun traveling around it. This was what people had long believed, but Galileo said it was untrue. So he was sent to prison(监狱). He was soon set free, but for the rest of his life he had to stay in his house and yard.

Galileo died in 1642, but his work helped to change the world. He is sometimes called the father of modern science,because he showed us how important it is to look carefully at things and to test out ideas with experiments.

(1)Both Galileo and Copernicus believed that    .

A.

two objects fall at the same speed

B.

the moon is smooth

C.

the earth goes around the sun

D.

the earth is the center of the universe

(2)We can infer from this passage that    .

A.

Galileo's parents didn't value the education

B.

all of Aristotle's ideas were proved to be wrong

C.
