 "If there is one thing I'm sure about, it is that in a hundred years from now we will still be reading newspapers. It is not that newspapers are a necessity. Even now some people get most of their news from television or radio. Many buy a paper only on Saturday or Sunday. But for most people reading a newspaper has become a habit passed down from generation to genera?tion.

  The nature of what is news may change. What basically makes news is what affects our lives―the big political stories, the coverage of the wars,earthquakes and other disasters, will continue much the same. I think there will be more coverage of scientific research, though. It's already happening in areas that may directly affect our lives, like genetic(基因的) engineering. In the future,I think there will be more coverage of scientific explanations of why we feel as we do―as we develop a better understanding of how the brain operates and what our feelings really are.

  It's quite possible that in the next century newspapers will be transmitted electronically from Fleet Street and printed out in our own home. In fact,I'm pretty sure that it will happen in the future. You will probably be able to choose from a menu,making up your own newspaper by picking out the things you want to read―sport and international news,etc.

  I think people have got it wrong when they talk about competition between the different media(媒体) .They actually feed off each other. Some people once foresaw that television would kill off newspapers, but that hasn't happened. What is read on the printed page lasts lon?ger than pictures on a screen or sound lost in the air. And as for the Internet, it's never really pleasant to read something just on a screen.

(   ) 1. In the writer's opinion, in the future,        .

   A.more big political affairs, wars and disasters will make news

   B.newspapers will not be printed in publishing houses any longer

   C.newspapers will cover more scientific research

   D.more and more people will watch TV

(   ) 2. From the passage, we can infer that        .

   A.newspapers will win the competition among the different media

   B.newspapers will stay with us together with other media

   C.television will take the place of the newspaper

   D.the writer believes some media will die out

(   ) 3. The phrase "feed off" in the last paragraph means "        _".

   A. depend on   B. compete with   C. fight with   D. kill off

(   ) 4. What is the best title for the passage?

    A. The Best Way to Get News.   B. The Changes of Media.

   C. Make Your Own newspaper.   D. The Future of Newspaper.

 Kids have less safety sense. Though it is difficult to stop the children from suffering inju?ries,we can always take measures and learn the first aid available in case of an emergency. Lis?ted below are a few tips on first aid and safety which should be paid attention to.

  Tragedy involving fire is the worst and safety methods taken to prevent these things from happening are the best. Educating children on measures to prevent fire is the first step towards fire prevention. The next step is to operate tire items with care. Children should not be allowed to cook or operate a gas stove alone. Fire drills can help children learn the methods of escape in case of a fire. In case of burns of low intensity(强度) ,run cold water until the pain disappears; however, with serious burns,you must seek medical help immediately. Also make sure that there are enough smoke alarms installed in the house.

  Another major fear involving kids is drowning. The children should never be left unattend?ed while swimming, even if your child is a great swimmer, if a girl has long hair she must make sure that she ties it firmly in the swimming cap before swimming to prevent it getting tangled (缠绕) in the pool. Take measures by making children wear lifesaving jackets and stop them from going to any place like the docks where water is dangerous to swimmers.

  Carbon dioxide is poisonous especially to children. Even a small dose of it can be fatal for them or at least has the power to make a child seriously ill. Place all medicines and other poison?ous substance away from the reach of children.

  Cuts are common among children, but parents can avoid it by making their children wear shoes at home and removing any furniture with sharp edges. Avoiding injuries is as important as learning first aid.

(   ) 1. From the passage we can learn that .

   A.it's hard to pay attention to children's safety

   B.there're no ways to stop children suffering injuries

   C.if we take measures few injuries will happen

   D.children's suffering injuries is easy to happen

(   ) 2. What should we do first of all according to the author?

   A.We should let children know it is dangerous to cook or play with fire.

   B.We should have children know tragedy involving fire is the worst.

   C.We should make children master the measures to prevent fire.

   D.We should teach children how to operate fire items with care. 

(   ) 3. What is the author's opinion about children's doing cooking?

   A.Children should not be allowed to cook.

   B.One must keep watching as his kid is doing cooking.

   D.escape when a fire breaks out

  Margaret Mitchell was born on November 8 , 1900 in Atlanta,Georgia.

  Her father was president of the local historical society and her mother was president of one of the South's suffragette(鼓吹妇女参政) groups. She was also a strict woman who did not want to spoil(溺爱) her daughter. Apparently?

  Gone with the Wind is a clearly drawn tale of the American Southern life during and after the Civil War,which is told through the lives of two families,their relatives,friends and slaves.
