There are not very many people who seriously - 7 - / 22read a newspaper every day. Most people only read the sports pages, the advice or the gossip columns, the comics, and perhaps the classified advertisements. Most people don't take time to read real news. They attempt to catch the reader's interest with pictures and exciting headlines. These techniques are used on the front page because it is the first thing you see when you pick up the paper. The first page attracts attention and encourages the reader to look through the rest of the paper. This is why editors always look for a good first page story and a headline to make them stop and look. If the headline is horrible enough or frightening enough or wild enough, perhaps they will go on to read the front page. However,they may read the headlines, but that is all, then they turn to the sports page, or comics, or advertisements. It seems that people do not want the news from a newspaper any more. They say they get the news on television now. More people watch television news because it is easier and more interesting than reading a newspaper. What about you? Do you read news from a newspaper? Do you think it is easier to get news from television? Or do you care about news at all? Would you mind if there were no news?25According to the passage, newspapers are _.Amore popular todayBless popular today- 8 - / 22Cas popular as beforeDgetting more and more popular26According to the author, which of the following newspapers will most probably attract the reader's attention?AThe ones with interesting pictures and exciting headlines on the front page.BThe ones with sports news on the front page.CThe ones with classified ads on the front page.DThe ones with gossip columns on the front page.27According to the passage, most people read all of the following EXCEPT _.BcomicsAthe sports page Dreal newsCadvertisements28The author's attitude toward newspapers is _.BcriticalAsympatheticDundeterminedCnegative CAfter the examination, the doctor told my parents my sight would get worse and that I would lose my sight finally. On the way home from hospital, no one said a word. One day, would I only imagine the scenery beyond the glass rather than see it?That September, I entered middle school. Most nights I had homework that included an armful of books to read. To - 9 - / 22keep up with other children, I took great trouble to finish the task. With my nose a couple of inches from the page, I was tired easily. What's worse, after I had read several pages on my own, the words slipped off the page into inky pools.However, then I did not have audio books and electronic devices like kids do now. Instead, Mom volunteered to read out loud. Mom worked parttime, cleaned the house, cooked and spent time with Grandma. In spite of being so busy, she showed up in my room like clockwork. She put on her reading glasses. Mom always thought those glasses made her look old. To me, she looked like a teacher.In my room, Mom's voice competed with the ticking of the clock. Being forced to focus on listening, I found a way to keep my marks up and compete with the other kids. When the teacher asked a question, I raised my hand with confidence. Teachers praised me for having a good memory. Reading removed my fear for my failing sight, reading also made me curious about other people's challenges and how they managed. Though I could not use my eyes to fix on each passage, my mind lit up with every new book.True to what the doctor said, the worst came, but thanks to Mom, my sense of hearing now allows me to “see”. This was the most precious gift from a mother to her child.29Why did the author and his parents keep silent on - 10 - / 22their way back home from hospital? AThey all wanted to have a good rest. BWhat the doctor said made them worried.CThe author didn't do well in the exam. DThey focused on the scenery along the road.30How did the author manage to get high marks?ABy listening carefully.
