2021年成考专升本《英语》系统练习四
Questions 41 to 45 are based on the following passage. Complete each of the sentences with less than 10 words.
It seems to me that many British newspapers aren’t really newspaper at all. They contain news. It is true, but much of this news only appears in print because it is guaranteed to shock, surprise appears in print because it is guaranteed to shock, surprise or cause a chuckle(轻声笑).
What should we expect to find in a real newspaper? Interesting political articles? Accurate report of what has been happening in distant corners of the world? Full coverage of great sporting event? In depth interviews with leading personalities? It is a sad fact that in Britain the real newspapers, the ones that reort the facts, sell in thousands, while the popular papers that set out to shock or amuse have a circulation of several million. One inescapable(不可避免) conclusion is that the vast majority of British readers do not really want a proper newspaper at all. They just want a few pages of entertainment.
I buy the same newspaper every day. In this paper, political matters, both British and foreign, are covered in full. The editorial column may support government policy on one issue and oppose it on another. There is a full page of book reviews and quoted daily. So are the exchange rates of the world’s major currencies. The sports correspondents are among the best in the country, while the standard of the readers’ letters in absolutely first class.
If an intelligent person were to find a copy of this paper 50 years from now. he or she would still find it entertaining, interesting and instructive.
So my favorite newspaper is obviously very different from those popular papers that have a circulation of several million. But that does not mean that it is “better” or that they are “worse”. Weare not comparing like with dislike. A publisher printing a newspaper with a circulation of several million is running a highly successful commercial operation. The people who buy this product are obviously satisfied customers and in a free society everybody should have the right to buy whatever kind of newspaper he pleases.
41. What kind of news can be found most in the newspaper with a circulation of several millions?
42. What does the author conclude about the British readers?
43. What is the attiude of the author toward the popular papers?
44. What kind of newspaper does the author always buy?
45. What’s the best title for the passage?
