    　　Hundreds of years ago, news was carried from place to place by people on foot or by horse, which took days, weeks and sometimes months for people to receive news. Now it is possible to send words and pictures around the world in seconds. Billions of people learn about news stories of their mother country and all over the world every day, either by watching TV or reading newspapers.

    　　Newspaper have been an important part of everyday life since the 18th century. Many countries have hundreds of different newspapers. How do newspaper editors decide which news stories to print?

    　　Why do they print some stories and not others? What makes a good newspaper story?

    　　Firstly, it is important to report new stories. TV stations can report news much faster than newspapers. Yet, newspapers give more about the same story. They may also look at the story in another way, or they may, print completely different stories to those on TV.

    　　Secondly, a news story has to be interesting and unusual. People don't want to read stories about everyday life. As a result, many stories are about China.

    　　Another factor is also very important in many news stories. Many people are interested in news in foreign countries, but more prefer to read stories about people, places and events in their own country. So the stories on the front page in Chinese newspaper are usually very different from the ones in British, French and American newspapers.

    (1) In old days it was hard to get news, because ________.

    [　　]

    A．people didn't care about news

    B．the transportation was not as fast as now

    C．nobody paid for news

    D．there wasn't anything so interesting as today

    (2) According to the passage, newspapers ________.

    [　　]

    A．report news faster than TV

    B．give the same thing about the same story as TV

    C．give the same ideas about the news as TV

    D．sometimes choose different stories from TV

    (3) According to the passage, which story will a newspaper editor choose to print on newspaper?

    [　　]

    A．A train arrived at the station on time

    B．Students liked to go to school

    C．The advertisement of a TV program.

    D．A bus fell into the river

    (4) If we are in French, what will see in the newspaper?

    [　　]

    A．A Chinese leader gave an important speech about

    B．An Englishman was lost in the rain forest

    C．The French team won the champion.

    D．The American attacked the Iraq.

    (5) A possible title for the passage would be.

    [　　]

    A．The News

    B．How to Print News

    C．News in the Past and Now

    D．Newspapers

    答案：B;D;D;C;D
    解析：

    (3) 解析：因为文章中说了，新闻要选取不平常的事。有时甚至是不好的事。

    (5) 解析：文章大部分还是在讲报纸，涉及电视的内容也是为了说明报纸的性质。
