閱讀理解 　　A good modern newspaper is an extraordinary piece of reading．It is remarkable first for what it contains：the range of news from local crime to international politics, from sport to business to fashion to science, and the range of comment and special features(特寫)as well, from editorial page to feature articles and interviews to criticism of books, art, theatre and music． 　　A newspaper is even more remarkable for the way one reads it：never completely, never straight through, but always by jumping from here to there, in and out glancing at one piece, reading another article all the way through, reading just a few paragraphs of the text． 　　A good modern newspaper offers a variety to attract many different readers, but far more than any reader is interested in．What brings this variety together in one place is its topicality(時事性), its immediate relation to what is happening in your world and your locality now．But immediacy and the speed of production that goes with it mean also that much of what appears in a newspaper has no more than transient(短暫的)value． 　　For all these reasons, no two people really read the same paper：what each person does is to put together out of the pages of that day's paper, his own selection and sequence, his own newspaper．For all these reasons, reading newspaper efficiently, which means getting what you want from them without missing things you need but without wasting time, demands skill and self-awareness as you modify and apply the techniques of reading． (1) A modern newspaper is remarkable for all the following EXCEPT its ________． [　　] A． wide coverage B． uniform style C． speed in reporting news D． popularity (2) According to the passage, the reason why no two people really read the“same”newspaper is that ________． [　　] A． people scan for the news they are interested in B． different people prefer different newspapers C． people are rarely interested in the same kind of news D． people have different views about what a good newspaper is (3) It can be concluded from the passage that newspaper readers ________． [　　] A． apply reading techniques skillfully B． jump from one newspaper to another C． appreciate the variety of a newspaper D． usually read a newspaper selectively (4) A good newspaper offers“a variety”to readers because ________． [　　] A． it tries to serve different readers B． it has to cover things that happen in a certain locality C． readers are difficult to please D． readers like to read different newspapers (5) The best title for this passage would be“________”． [　　] A． The Importance of Newspaper Topicality B． The Characteristics of a Good Newspaper C． The Variety of a Good Newspaper D． Some Suggestions on How to Read a Newspaper

Answer 1

答案：1．B;2．A;3．D;4．A;5．B;
解析：

(1)	四個選項的意思分別是：A．覆蓋面大；B．統一的風格；C．時效性；D．大眾性，普及性。文章前三段對A、C和D三項都有論述，B項沒有提及。
(2)	文章認為沒有兩個讀者真正閱讀同樣的報紙，其原因是：所有人看報紙都是選他們自己感興趣的內容。從文章倒數第一段第一句可知應選A。
(3)	根據文章倒數第一段第一句，可知讀者看報通常是有選擇性的。
(4)	依據文章內容可以看出，報紙提供多種多樣的內容，是為了滿足不同類型及不同閱讀需求的讀者。
(5)	A、C兩項都是文章涉及的具體方面，不足以概括整個文章的內容。D項與文章也無多大關系。至于文中提到了讀者多半是選擇性地閱讀報紙這一點，也是作者分析得出的實際結果，并非是給讀者的建議。B項則概括了整個文章的大意，應是主題。
