British newspapers are among the oldest and most famous in the world. But recently big changes have seen these traditional publications try to fit the modern world. After 221 years, The Times has changed its size to become much smaller. In fact, the paper has cut its size in half from a broadsheet to tabloid(小报).
In
Tabloids have far more stories about less serious issues such as celebrities’(名人)love lives. Their stories are shorter and use more simple language. Tabloids often have bigger pictures.
By changing to the size of a tabloid, The Times is following in the footsteps of a less famous broadsheet paper the Independent . It changed to tabloid last year and saw its sales increase greatly. Although both papers have switched to the smaller size the content of the papers has remained the same. They are both still serious papers.
The two papers claim that people find the smaller size easier to handle when they travel to work on the bus or the train in the morning. Instead of calling the new style of their paper tabloid, the paper says its new size is “compact”(紧凑型).

At least eight babies in East China’s
More than 100 other babies in Fuyang, mostly between three and five months old, are still in poor nutrition after drinking different kinds of cheap milk powders produced in North China’s Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, Northeast China’s Heilongjiang Province and Beijing.

Do we think only with the brain? Hardly. The brain is like a telephone exchange. It is the switchboard, but not the whole system. Its function is to receive incoming signals, make proper connections, and send the messages through to their destination. For efficient service, the body must function as a whole.
But where is the “mind”? Is it in the brain or perhaps in the nervous system? After all, can we say that the mind is in any particular place? It is not a thing, like a leg, or even the brain. It is a function, an activity. Aristotle, twenty-three hundred years ago, observed that the mind was to the body what cutting was to the ax. When the ax is not in use, there is no cutting. So it is with the mind. “Mind,” said Charles H. Woolbert, “is what the body is doing.”
If this activity is necessary for thinking, it is also necessary for carrying thought from one person to another. Observe how people go about the business of ordinary conversation. If you have never done this carefully, you have a surprise in store, for good conversationalists are almost constantly in motion. Their heads are continually nodding and shaking sometimes so vigorously that you wonder how their necks can stand the strain. Even the legs and feet are active. As for the hands and arms, they are seldom still for more than a few seconds at a time.
These people, remember, are not making speeches. They are only common people trying to make others understand what they have in mind. They are not conscious of movement. Their speech is not studies. They are just human creatures in a human environment, trying to adapt themselves to a social situation. Yet they converse, not only with oral language, but with visible actions that involve practically every muscle in the body. In short, because people really think all over, a speaker must talk all over if he succeeds in making people think.
67. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A.Bodily Communication B.Spoken Language
C.Bodily Actions D.Conversations
68. Which of the following statements would the author agree with?
A.Thinking is a social phenomenon
B.Thinking is only a brain function
C.Thinking is a function of the nervous system
D.Thinking is the total sum of bodily activities
69. In communication, it is essential not only to employ speech, but also .
A.to speak directly to the other person
B.to use the variety of bodily movements
C.to be certain that the other person is listening
D.to pay great attention to the other person’s behavior
70. It can be inferred that the basic function of bodily activity in speech is to .
A.make the listener feel emotional
B.make the description vivid
C.intensify the speaker’s spoken words
D.carry the speaker’s implied meaning to the listener
71. Which of the following is TRUE?
A.The brain is compared to a telephone exchange.
B.The mind is an activity of the nervous system.
C.Some people remain still while talking to others.
D.Many people move their bodies on purpose while talking.
