    阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。

    In a small village, the parents of a little boy were very depressed due to his bad temper(脾气). The boy used to get angry very easily and hurt others with his words. While he forgot what he spoke in anger, his friends and neighbours avoided him.

    His mother and father tried many ways to make him give up his anger and develop kindness. Unfortunately, all their attempts failed. Finally, the boy’s father came up with an idea.

    One day, his father gave him a huge bag of nails, asking him to hammer one nail to the fence every time he lost his temper. The little boy found it funny and accepted what his father had said.

    His anger drove him to hammer 30 nails into the fence on the first day! Over the next few days, the little boy found it very difficult to hammer the nails into the fence and decided to control his temper.

    Gradually, the number of nails hammered into the fence was reduced and the day arrived when he hammered none!

    Now, his father told him to remove the nails every day as he had controlled his anger. Several days passed and the boy was able to pull out most of the nails from the fence.

    The father appreciated him and asked him, pointing to one of the holes, “What do you see there?”

    The boy replied, “A hole in the fence?”

    He told the boy, “The nails were your bad temper and they were hammered into people. You can remove the nails but still see the holes in the fence. The fence never looks the same! It has scars all over! Your bad temper and anger were like that! Use words for good. Use them to show your heart!”

    This year, Face book, the social media website announced that it would cooperate with several news organizations — including The New York Times, The Guardian, and the BBC — to place news stories directly into users’ personal Face book webpage. Stories published using Face book Instant will load more quickly and keep the style of the original publisher, who will keep all the advertising income the stories earn — at least for now. The deal shows how important social media has become to news organizations, and is a clear sign of how the world of news is changing — and has been for a while.

    Many thought of it as the death of the newspaper, when Google News began in 2002. It had no human editor. Instead Google used, and still uses, a secret computer program that selects and displays news stories according to the reader’s personal interests, More recently, Associated Press and Yahoo have been publishing computer-written articles. Both use special software to automatically produce stories about company financial results and sports reports — areas where the quality of writing is felt to be of secondary importance to the accuracy of the data.

    I think we should be concerned about such developments. One concern is that Facebook, Google and other social media websites see journalism as a sideline （副业）, a way of putting people in front of advertisements. It isn’t their primary function — so if it stops making them lots of money, they’re likely to stop doing it.

    There’s another concern that computer-written articles are not actually journalism at all, because what a human news team produces is actually quite complex. A well-written news story puts information in context, offers a voice to each side of an argument and brings the public new knowledge.

    Although economics and speed of delivery mean readers will probably choose a computer-written story over a carefully shaped article — at least for daily news — I don’t think the computers will be writing any in-depth articles for a while yet.

    1.What is the main purpose of the article?

    A. To report on a new computer service offered by Facebook.

    B. To advise readers against reading computer-written news.

    C. To express concern about recent trends in online news.

    D. To describe the process of online news reporting.

    2.Computer-written news reports have so far focused on sports and finance because ________.

    A. these are the most popular topics for online readers

    B. writing style is less important than accuracy in these areas

    C. information on these topics is more easily available

    D. there are fewer journalists specializing in these areas

    3.What does the underlined word “It” in Paragraph 3 refer to?

    A. Business. B. Advertising.

    C. Facebook. D. Journalism.

    4.In Paragraph 4, which of the following is mentioned as a characteristic of a well-written news article?

    A. The information presented is up-to-date.

    B. The author’s opinion is clear.

    C. The language used is vivid.

    D. Different views on the topic are presented.

    One of the Queen’s closest relatives and oldest friends was allowed to give a deep description into the family life of the Royals. Although there have been hundreds of other books declaring to offer a quick look behind the Palace doors, this is the first written by someone who is closely related to the Royal Family and has shared their lives—not only throughout the Queen’s reign (统治) but also through that of her father, King George VI.

    The Final Curtsey was written by her Majesty’s cousin and childhood playmate the Honorable Margaret Rhodes. It tells in details the story of Mrs. Rhodes’s relationship with the Royal family over eight decades. The book, with delightfully informal and never-before-seen pictures, has been written with the full knowledge of the Queen, who has read and approved parts of it.

    Born in 1925, the Honorable Margaret Rhodes has led an extraordinary life. She was the childhood playmate of her cousin, the Queen; a wartime M16 spy; and she was a lady-in- waiting (宫女) to her aunt, the Queen Elizabeth, the Queen Mother, from 1991 until the latter’s death in 2002. At the Queen’s 80th birthday in April 2006, Margaret gave an interview to the BBC which she proved that, in her own opinion and despite several false reports, the Queen would not abdicate(退位).

    In this charming autobiography (自传)，she told how she was offered a house to live in the Royal farm in Windsor Great Park unexpectedly. One day when she and the Queen were out riding outside, she suddenly returned and said, “Could you bear to live in the suburb?” “I think it should be OK.” Therefore Mrs. Rhodes is now still living there.

    1.Compared with other books about the Royal Family, the biggest advantage of The Final Curtsey is that _______.

    A. its author is very famous

    B. its author knows the Queen well

    C. it presents reader a very different Queen

    D. it has pictures that have never been seen

    2.When Mrs. Rhodes was offered to live in the Royal farm, she was _______.

    A. unhappy B. surprised

    C. sad D. disappointed

    3.We can learn from Paragraph 3 that Mrs. Rhodes ________.

    A. has lived quite a long life

    B. was so famous that BBC interviewed her

    C. has a close relationship with the royal family

    D. has been very busy and kept on changing jobs

    4.The passage is mainly about________.

    A. a book about royal family

    B. the Queen’s life

    C. the life of Margaret Rhodes

    D. the Queen’s abdication
