Newspapers are not nearly as popular today as they were in the past.   【小題1】  Most people read only the sports pages, the advice or the gossip(閑話,緋聞)columns, the comics, and perhaps the classified advertisements.
Most people don't take the time to read the real news.     【小題2】  These techniques(技術(shù),手段)are used on the front page because it is the first thing you see when you pick up the paper. The first page attracts attention and encourages the reader to look through the rest of the paper.     【小題3】    If the headline is horrible(恐懼的)enough or frightening enough or wild enough, perhaps they will go on to read the front page anymore. They may read the headlines, but that is all, then they turn to the sports page, or comics, or advertisements. It seems that people do not want the news from a newspaper anymore.   【小題4】  
More people watch television news because it is easier and more interesting than reading a newspaper. What about you? Do you read news from a newspaper?  【小題5】  Or do you care about news at all? Would you mind if there were no news?

A. They say they get the news on the television now.
B. There are not very many people who seriously read a newspaper every day.
C. More and more people read newspapers every day.
D. They attempt(試圖)to catch the reader's interest with pictures and exciting headlines(大字標(biāo)題,新聞提要)
E. Do you think it is easier to get the news from television?
F. They like reading stories.
G. This is why editors always look for a good first page story and headline to make them stop and look.

Street art is a very popular form of art that is spreading quickly all over the world. You can find it on buildings, sidewalks, street signs and trash cans(垃圾桶) from Tokyo to Paris, from Moscow to Cape Town. Street art has become a global culture and even art museums and galleries(畫廊) are collecting the works of street artists.

Street art started out very secretly because it was criminal to paint public and private things without permission(允許).
People often have different opinions about street art. Some think it is a crime and others think it is a very beautiful new form of culture.
Art experts say that the street art movement began in New York in the 1960s. Young adults painted words and other images on walls and trains. This colorful style of writing became known as graffiti(涂鴉). Graffiti art showed that young people wanted to be against society. They didn’t want to accept rules and travelled around cities to create paintings that everyone could see. In many cases, they had trouble with the police and the local government.
One well-known New York street artist is Swoon. She cuts paper images of people and puts them on walls or sets them up on sidewalks. Swoon didn’t start her career as a street artist. She studied art, but as time went on, got bored with the works she saw in museums and galleries. People in New York enjoy Swoon’s strong and imaginative style. Some museums have already bought some of her works.
Advertising companies also use street art in their ads because it gives people the feelings of youth and energy.
In Today’s world the Internet has a big influence on street art. Artists can show their pictures to the audience all over the world. Many city residents, however, say that seeing a picture on the Internet is never as good as seeing it live.

If you live in the United States, the law says you can’t have a full-time job until you are 16 years old. At 14 or 15, you can work part-time after school or on weekends, and during summer you can work 40 hours each week. Does all that mean that if you are younger than 14, you can’t earn (賺) your own money? Of course not! Kids who are between the ages of 10 and 13 can earn money by doing lots of things.
Valerie, 11, told us that she made money by cleaning up other people’s yards. Lena, 13, makes money by knitting (織) dog sweaters and selling them to her neighbors, and Reisa said she had started taking art classes and showing her work to people. People have asked her to draw pictures for them and they pay her for them. Jasmine, 13, writes articles for different magazines!
Earning is learning. By working to earn your own money, you are learning the skills you will need to succeed in life. These skills can include things like getting along with others, using technology (技術(shù)) and using your time. Some people think that asking for money is a lot easier than earning it; however, when you make your own money, you don’t have to depend on someone else. The five dollars that you earn will probably make you feel a lot better in your hand than the twenty dollars you ask for.

Parking has been a problem for drivers for a long time in Taizhou. The Transportation Department(交通部門) is mapping out a new plan for the city’s parking system. There are about 100 thousand cars on the road inTaizhou but only enough parking space to provide room for 15 percent of these vehicles. It is no wonder that local drivers get so worried trying to find a place to park.
The number of the private(私人的) car owners is becoming lager and larger. In March, the city sent out 1,000 private car licenses, the highest number of licenses ever sent out in a month. And prices rose to over 200 yuan, 500 more than in February. Industry experts(專家) say this suggests that local people have a strong, active interest in buying cars.
By the year 2020, the number of cars in Taizhou will probably reach 200 thousand. If one parking lot(停車場) is for each car, then a lot of parking space should be built for these vehicles. The center of Taizhou is most short of parking space. However, experts point out that simply building more parking lots in these areas is not practical and doesn’t solve the problem. The idea of “ Park & Ride” system has been suggested. This means that underground train and city train should be developed quickly. Drivers can leave their vehicles in car parks nearby subway(地鐵) and bus stations and then they can ride public transport to go to the city center. Based on this idea, the city will cut down the number of parking lots in the city center and need higher parking fees(費用). But it will build more parking areas near main subway and bus stops.
【小題1】The underlined phrase “ mapping out ” in the first paragraph means _____.

A.makingB.a(chǎn)rguingC.replyingD.comparing
【小題2】About _____ drivers can find places to park their cars in Taizhou now.
A.8,500B.10,000C.15,000D.20,000
【小題3】What can we infer from the second paragraph?
A.The city sent out more private licenses in February.
B.Less and less people bought cars in March.
C.The city sent out less private licenses in March.
D.More and more people are going to buy cars.
【小題4】According to the idea of a “ Park & Ride ” system, the city will _____.
A.send out more private car licenses
B.build more parking lots near bus stops
