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well.A great deal of local news is regularly supplied by clubs and churches in the neighbourhood and it does not get out of date as quickly as national news.If there is no room for it in this week's edition,an item can sometimes be held until the following week.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 papersB.it is of better quality than many other papersC.it is sold nationallyD.it is delivered everywhere in Britain(2)Local papers are preferred by readers who ____ .A.are interested in newsB.are much interested in local eventsC.want to get news as quickly as possibleD.work in churches and clubs(3)According to the passage,businessmen would like to advertise in papers if ____ .A.the papers are well writtenB.the news items are carefully chosenC.the news involves themD.the papers are popular and can attract readers(4)The last paragraph implies(暗示)that ____ .A.local papers seldom comment on politicsB.local papers can sometimes influence policy makingC.local papers are more concerned about their own communitiesD.local papers do not take sides on problems of national importance

As a historian who's always searching for the text or the image that makes us re-evaluate the past,I've become preoccupied with looking for photographs that show our Victorian ancestors smiling(what better way to shatter the image of 19th-century prudery?).I've found quite a few,and - since I started posting them on Twitter - they have been causing quite a stir.People have been surprised to see evidence that Victorians had fun and could,and did,laugh.They are noting that the Victorians suddenly seem to become more human as the hundred-or-so years that separate us fade away through our common experience of laughter.不同单候复你办法社拉工 Of course,I need to concede that my collection of 'Smiling Victorians' makes up only a tiny percentage of the vast catalogue of photographic portraiture created between 1840 and 1900,the majority of which show sitters posing miserably and stiffly in front of painted backdrops,or staring absently into the middle distance.How do we explain this trend?不同单候复你办法社拉工 During the 1840s and 1850s,in the early days of photography,exposure times were notoriously long:the daguerreotype photographic method (producing an image on a silvered copper plate) could take several minutes to complete,resulting in blurred images as sitters shifted position or adjusted their limbs.The thought of holding a fixed grin as the camera performed its magical duties was too much to contemplate,and so a non-committal blank stare became the norm.不同单候复你办法社拉工 But exposure times were much quicker by the 1 880s,and the introduction of the Box Brownie and other portable cameras meant that,though slow by today's digital standards,the exposure was almost instantaneous.Spontaneous smiles were relatively easy to capture by the 1890s,so we must look elsewhere for an explanation of why Victorians still hesitated to smile.不同单候复你办法社拉工 One explanation might be the loss of dignity displayed through a cheesy grin. "Nature gave us lips to conceal our teeth." ran one popular Victorian maxim,alluding to the fact that before the birth of proper dentistry mouths were often in a shocking state of hygiene.A flashing set of healthy and clean,regular "pearly whites" was a rare sight in Victorian society,the preserve of the super- rich(and even then,dental hygiene was not guaranteed).不同单候复你办法社拉工 A toothy grin(especially when there were gaps or blackened gnashers)lacked class:drunks,tramps and music hall performers might gurn and grin with a smile as wide as Lewis Carroll's gum-exposing Cheshire Cat,but it was not a becoming look for properly bred persons.Even Mark Twain,a man who enjoyed a hearty laugh,said that when it came to photographic portraits there could be "nothing more damning than a silly,foolish smile fixed forever".不同单候复你办法社拉工不同单候复你办法社拉工(1)According to paragraph 1,the author's posts on Twitter ______.不同单候复你办法社拉工A.illustrated the development of Victorian photography.不同单候复你办法社拉工B.highlighted social media's tole in Victorian researches.不同单候复你办法社拉工C.re-evaluated the Victorian's notion of public image.不同单候复你办法社拉工D.transformed people's initial cognition of the Victorians.不同单候复你办法社拉工(2)Mark Twain is quoted to show that the disapproval of smiles in pictures was ______.不同单候复你办法社拉工A.a thought-provoking idea不同单候复你办法社拉工B.a two-edged sword不同单候复你办法社拉工C.a controversial view不同单候复你办法社拉工D.a deep-rooted belief不同单候复你办法社拉工(3)Which of the following questions does the text answer? ______不同单候复你办法社拉工A.When did the Victorians start to view photograph differently?不同单候复你办法社拉工B.How come most Victorians looked stem and stiff in photographs?不同单候复你办法社拉工C.How can re-assessing pasts reveal the contemporary tendency?不同单候复你办法社拉工D.How did smiling in photograph become a post-Victorian norm?

The Harry Potter series, written by J.K. Rowling, is perhaps the most popular set of novels of the modern era. With seven books and many successful films to its name, the series has gathered about 15 billion dollars in sales. How did the series become so popular? The reason can be broken down into several areas.The first book in the series was rejected 12 times before it was picked up by Bloomsbury—a small publisher in England. So receiving this contract was Rowling's first step to success. However, getting a book contract does not ensure the success of a book. The story was soon loved by children and adults alike. In light of this, Bloomsbury Publishing published a second version of the books with “adult” (less colorful and more boring) book covers. This made it easier for a full range of ages to enjoy the series.Another factor that worked like a charm was that the publisher and Rowling herself, through the books, conducted midnight releases, promotions, and pre-ordering more readers. Customers who feared that their local bookstore would run out of copies responded by pre-ordering over 700,000 copies before the July 8, 2000 release.What does the underlined word “releases” (Para. 3) mean?A. The activity that frees or expresses energy or emotion.B. The announcement about the book’s publishing information.C. The sales of books that is available only at midnight.

The increase in international business and in foreign investment has created a need for executives with knowledge of foreign languages and skills in cross-cultural communication. Americans, however, have not been well trained in either area and, consequently, have not enjoyed the same level of success in negotiation in an international arena as have their foreign counterparts. Negotiating is the process of communicating back and forth for the purpose of reaching an agreement. It involves persuasion and compromise, but in order to participate in either one, the negotiators must understand the ways in which people are persuaded and how compromise is reached within the culture of the negotiation. In many international business negotiations abroad, Americans are perceived as wealthy and impersonal. It often appears to the foreign negotiator that the American represents a large multi-million-dollar corporation that can afford to pay the price without bargaining further. The American negotiator’s role becomes that of an impersonal supplier of information and cash. In studies of American negotiators abroad, several traits have been identified that may serve to confirm this stereotypical perception, while undermining the negotiator’s position. Two traits in particular that cause cross-cultural misunderstanding are directness and impatience on the part of the American negotiator. Furthermore, American negotiators often insist on realizing short-term goals. Foreign negotiators, on the other hand, may value the relationship established between negotiators and may be willing to invest time in it for long-term benefits. In order to solidify the relationship, they may opt for indirect interactions without regard for the time involved in getting to know the other negotiator. Clearly, perceptions and differences in values affect the outcomes of negotiations and the success of negotiators. For Americans to play a more effective role in international business negotiations, they must put forth more effort to improve cross-cultural understanding. [共5题](1)What kind of manager is needed in present international business and foreign investment? [本题2分]A. The man who represents a large multi-million-dollar corporation. B. The man with knowledge of foreign languages and skills in cross-cultural communication. C. The man who is wealthy and impersonal. D. The man who can negotiate with his foreign counterparts.

Americans experience more food recalls (召回) today than they did five years ago, especially when it comes to meat and poultry (家禽). Meat and poultry recalls increased by two-thirds from 2013 to 2018, while food recalls overall went up 10%, according to the report recently published by the U.S. Public Interest Research Group.Meanwhile, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates (估计) 48 million people get sick, 128,000 are hospitalized and 3,000 die from food-borne disease each year in the U.S. "We are looking for the farm-to-fork preventative solutions," said Adam Garber, the research group's consumer watchdog. "By doing that, we can protect people's health."Over the five-year period, poultry posted the most recalls (168), followed by beef (137) and pork (128). The report shows the most serious meat recalls are on the rise. Among meat and poultry, the number of Class I recalls has increased by 83%, nearly doubling. Class I, the most serious of the recalls, is issued when there is a reasonable probability that the food will cause health problems or death.53. When would Class I recalls be issued?A. When the food is likely to cause health problems or death.B. When there are too many complaints from customers.C. When the food problem lasts for five years.D. When the product quality is below standard.

Most children with healthy appetites are ready to eat almost anything that is offered them and a child rarely dislikes food (51) it is badly cooked. The way a meal is cooked and served is most important and an (52) served meal will often improve a child’s appetite. Never ask a child whether he likes or dislikes a food and never (53) likes and dislikes in front of him or allow anybody else to do so. If the father says he hates fat meat or the mother refuses vegetables in the child’s hearing he is (54) to copy this procedure. Take it (55) granted that he likes everything and he probably will. Nothing healthful should be omitted from the meal because of a (56) dislike. At meal times it is a good idea to give a child a small portion and let him (57) back for a second helping rather than give him as much as he is likely to eat all at once. Do not talk too much to the child (58) meal times, but let him get on with his food, and do not allow him to leave the table immediately after a meal or he will soon learn to swallow his food (59) he can hurry back to his toys. Under (60) circumstances must a child be coaxed or forced to eat.55()。A. withB. asC. overD. for
