Sectin B: Reading cmprehensin
Directins: Read the fllwing three passages. Each passages is fllwed by several questins r unfinished statements. Fr each f them there are fur chices marked A, B, C and D. Chse the ne that fits best accrding t the infrmatin given in the passage yu have just read.
(A)
St Kilda is a tiny archipelage (群岛) f the Nrth Atlantic Ocean. The islands are amng the mst spectacular, but the greatest fascinatin is that, fr ver a thusand years, peple lived there and pssessed a sense f cmmunity. Cut ff frm the mainland, the islanders had a distinct way f living their lives, mainly eating the seabirds that returned t breed n the rcks.
Islatin als had a big effect upn St Kildans’ attitudes and ideas. The peple sacrificed themselves year in and year ut in a cnstant battle t secure a livelihd. In such harsh cnditins, life was nly pssible because the whle cmmunity wrked tgether.
In the 19th century St Kilda was subject t pressures frm the utside wrld. Educatin, religin and turism all attempted t thrw the St Kildans’ way f life int dubt. In the early 20th century, the strength f the cmmunity became weakened as cntact with the rest f Britain increased. When disease cut their numbers, and wind and sea made it difficult t get adequate fd, the St Kildans were frced t turn t the mainland fr assistance.
In 1930, the St Kildans finally agreed t abandn their hmes. They settled n the Scttish mainland, nt realizing it meant thrwing themselves int the 20 century. As adults, they had t accept thse values mst Scts believe in. Fr instance, the islanders fund difficult t base their existence upn mney. They had never lived in a wrld where they bught gds and services frm each ther.
The islanders shwed themselves indifferent t the jbs they were given n the mainland. The laburs asked f them were unskilled cmpared with the spectacular skills they had nce perfrmed in rder t kill seabirds. Mrever, killing birds had nce prvided the cmmunity with fd t survive. On the mainland, hwever, the tasks they were asked t perfrm did nt prvide them immediately with what was needed t keep them fed and warm.
The histry f the St Kildans after the evacuatin (撤离), f their inability and lack f reslutin t fit int urban sciety, makes sad reading. When they were resettled n the mainland, the St Kildans were frced t live in a sciety whse values were unacceptable and incmprehensible t the majrity f them. Fr many, the mve was a tragedy.
43. Accrding t Paragraph 3, the fllwing factrs lead t St Kildans seeking help frm utside EXCEPT ________.

C. cntact with BritainD. wrsening health

D. had the pprtunity t shw their skills f killing seabirds
45. Which f the fllwing is NOT abut hw peple used t live n St Kilda?
A. The majr surce f fd was fund lcally.
B. It was essential fr peple t help each ther.
C. Very few peple had visited mainland Sctland.

A. an intrductin t a scientific prject
B. a part f prescriptin drug instructins
C. a part f a research reprt in a medical jurnal
D. an advertisement f a medicine fr depressin
(C)
Why d s many Americans distrust what they read in their newspapers? The American Sciety f Newspaper Editrs is trying t answer this painful questin. The rganizatin is deep int a lng self-analysis knwn as the jurnalism credibility prject.
Sad t say, this prject has turned ut t be mstly lw-level findings abut factual errrs and spelling and grammar mistakes, cmbined with lts f head-scratching puzzlement abut what in the wrld thse readers really want.
But the surces f distrust g way deeper. Mst jurnalists learn t see the wrld thrugh a set f standard patterns int which they plug each day’s events. in ther wrds, there is a cnventinal stry line in the newsrm culture that prvides a backbne and a ready-made narrative structure fr therwise cnfusing news.
There exists a scial and cultural discnnect between jurnalists and their readers, which helps explain why the “standard patterns” f the newsrm seem alien t many readers. In a recent survey, questinnaires were sent t reprters in five middle-size cities arund the cuntry, plus ne large metrplitan area. Then residents in these cmmunities were phned at randm and asked the same questins.
Replies shw that cmpared with ther Americans, jurnalists are mre likely t live in upscale neighbrhds, have maids, wn Mercedeses, and trade stcks, and they’re less likely t g t church, d vlunteer wrk, r put dwn rts in a cmmunity.
Reprters tend t be part f a bradly defined scial and cultural elite (精英) s their wrk tends t reflect the cnventinal values f this elite. The astnishing distrust f the news media isn’t rted in inaccuracy r pr reprtrial skills but in the daily cnflict f wrld views between reprters and their readers.
This is an explsive situatin fr any industry, particularly a declining ne. Here is a trubled business that keeps hiring emplyees whse attitudes vastly anny the custmers. Then it spnsrs lts f cnferences and a credibility prject dedicated t wndering why custmers are annyed and fleeing in large numbers. But it never seems t get arund t nticing the cultural and class biases that s many frmer buyers are cmplaining abut. If it did, it wuld pen up its diversity prgram, nw fcused narrwly n race and gender, and lk fr reprters wh differ bradly by utlk, values, educatin, and class.
50. What is the passage mainly abut?
A. The bjectives and findings f a jurnalism credibility prject.
B. The persnnel structure f the declining newspaper industry.
C. The causes f the public disappintment in newspapers.
D. The indefinite needs f newspaper readers in America.
51. The results f the jurnalism credibility prject turned ut t be ________.
A. smewhat cnflictingB. rather trustwrthy
C. quite superficialD. very enlightening
52. Accrding t the authr, the fundamental prblem f jurnalists lies in their ________.
A. cnventinal lifestyle in upscale cmmunities
B. inflexible apprach t handling news stries
C. cntradictry ways f making sense f the wrld
D. shared values discnnected frm general readers
53. Which ne f the fllwing statements is TRUE abut the newspaper industry?
A. It fails t satisfy its readers due t annying reprters.
B. It hasn’t realized the real prblem despite its effrts.
C. It’s urgent that it fcus n accurate and skillful reprting.
D. It shuld be aware f underlying prejudice in race and gender.

Depressin hurts, Przac can help
Depressin isn’t just feeling dwn. It’s a real illness with real causes. Depressin can be triggered by stressful life events, like divrce r a death in the family. Or it can appear suddenly, fr n apparent reasn.
Sme peple think yu can just will yurself ut f a depressin. That’s nt true. Many dctrs believe that ne thing that may cause depressin is an imbalance f sertnin — a chemical in yur bdy.

These are sme f the symptms that can pint t depressin—especially if they last fr mre than a cuple f weeks and if nrmal, everyday life feels like t much t handle.
T help fight depressin, the medicine dctrs nw prescribe (开处方) mst ften is Przac. Przac isn’t a “happy pill.” It’s nt a tranquilizer (镇静剂) . It wn’t turn yu int a different persn.
