with reporting the news,educate,entertain,andgive opinions.An important way of reading a large,big-city newspaper isto put it into different sections.Can you find these separate sections:world news,national and local news,sports,business,entertainment,opinions,ads?Does your newspaper have other sections?News stories give facts,not the reporters opinions.Somenewspaper editorials（社论）come out with the writers name,but manynewspapers only carry editorials without putting the writers names on.You can be a better reader if you know what to expect in a newspaper.For example,you can expect headlines（新闻标题）to leave outunnecessary words.You can expect to find the most important facts inthe lead paragraph（the first paragraph）of a news story.You can expectimportant news items to be on the front page.You can expect lessimportant items to be on the inside pages.Most of all,the more you know about news of the present time,themore you will understand what is in the newspaper.Important storiesare generally presented one day and followed up on following days.So,an important way to read newspapers is reading one frequently.6.Important news items are usually on the inside pages.A.TB.F答案：B7.A good way to read a newspaper is to find separate sections and readaccording to your needs.A.TB.F答案：A8.Newspaper headlines contain no unnecessary words.A.TB.F答案：A9.If you are

scientist?Does he have ways or tools oflearning that are different from those of others?The answer is no”.It isnot the tools a scientist uses but how he uses these tools that makes hima scientist.You will probably agree that knowing how to use a power isimportant to a carpenter.You will probably agree,too,that knowing howto investigate,how to discover information,is important to everyone.The scientist,however,goes one step further,he must be sure that hehas a reasonable answer to his questions and that his answer can beconfirmed by other persons.He also works to fit the answers he gets tomany questions into a large set of ideas about how the world works.The scientists knowledge must be exact.There is no room for halfright or right just half the time.He must be as nearly right as theconditions permit.What works under one set of conditions at one timemust work under the same conditions at other times.If the conditionsare different,any changes the scientist observes in a demonstrationmust be explained by the changes in the conditions.This is one reasonthat investigations are important in science.Albert Einstein,whodeveloped the Theory of Relativity,arrived at this theory throughmathematics.The accuracy of his mathematics was later tested throughinvestigations,and Einsteins ideas were shown to be correct.A scientistuses many tools for measurements.Then the measurements are used tomake mathematical calculations that may test his investigations.11.What makes a scientist according to the passage?A.The tools he uses.B.The way he uses his tools.C.His ways of
