13．The role of a newspaper is to present and comment on the news．It is vital for keeping people well-informed on current affairs．In most Western countries，journalists try to shape the ideas and opinions of their readers，since in Western countries all newspapers are independent of the government．Some newspaper owners support liberal ideas including economic policies that help poor people．Other owners want policies such as lower taxes for rich people and less money to be given to poor people．You can almost judge the political ideas of a person in the West by looking at the newspaper he reads．
All newspapers report national and international news．They give the facts but also provide opinions on controversial issues in the editorials and columns of opinion．The readers of the newspaper can also comment on these editorials or articles．There are many informative articles too as well as reviews of new films and books，etc．These are very important，for if a film or book gets good reviews it will often become more successful．
All these articles require many journalists who are experts in different areas of life．All these articles come together and are checked by the chief editor of the newspaper．When he or she has made a decision on the articles，the newspaper is prepared for printing．All this work means that the journalists must work together as a team because there is a lot of pressure when you work in a newspaper office．There are constant deadlines and articles have to be fitted round advertisements，photographs and much，much more．

44．What does the underlined word"be fitted"mean？B．
A．be suitable
B．be put
C．be read
D．be measured
45．What articles comment on controversial issues？A．
A．Editorials and opinion columns．
B．News stories．
C．Some of the informative articles．
D．Jokes and humour．
46．Which is true about the journalists in Western countries？D．
A．There's no time limit for their report articles．
B．They have no right to influence the readers'opinions．
C．A newspaper can come out with just a journalist working individually．
D．Journalists must submit their articles before the due date．
47．Why are good reviews important to books？D．
A．Good reviews are excellent introduction to books．
B．Readers especially favour books with good reviews．
C．Good reviews can make readers feel relaxed and comfotable．
D．Good reviews can bring a large circulation of the books reviewed．

3．People all over the world love listening to music and most have their favourite songs which they listen to again and again．But how did it all start？When could people first choose the music they wanted to listen to？
The 1900s：The player radio
In the late 19th and early 20th centuries，pianos became very popular and rich families bought"player pianos"．A player piano played music that was programmed on paper rolls with holes in them and you could also play it like a holes in them and you could also play it like a"normal"piano．In the mid 1920s player pianos began to disappear mainly because the radio got more popular．
The 1910s：The first phonographs （留聲機）
As early as 1877，there were phonographs to play music on and by the 1910s，many families had one．The music was on"records"made of aluminum foil （鋁箔）．People could listen to them only a few times before the foil broke．Later the music was on wax cylinders （蠟筒）．There could hold longer recordings （two to four minutes），and people could play them more often．
The 1920s：Gramophones and record players
Gramophones were similar to the phonographs，but they used flat vinyl （乙烯基） disks and not cylinders to hold the music．The disks went round，and first a steel needle，then later a small diamond，"took"the music off the record．Some of the disks could play for more than 20minutes per side．Today some music lovers who are crazy about disks still use vinyl records．
The 1960s-1970s：Cassettes and the Walkman
In the 1960s，the first cassette recorders became popular．A big step towards modern technology was the invention of the first portable （便攜式的） cassette player，the"Walkman"，by the Japanese company，Sony in 1979．For the first time，people could listen to their favourite music while they were travelling，doing sports，or going for walks．
21．What happened to the player piano in the mid 1920s？C
A．Only the rich could afford it．
B．It began to be used as a"normal"piano．
C．It was gradually replaced by the radio．
D．It was improved and played music automatically．
22．What do we know about phonographs and gramophones？A
A．They used different records to hold the music．
B．They are still popular among music lovers now．
C．Gramophones were easier to carry than phonographs．
D．Phonographs held longer recordings than gramophones．
23．The text is mainly aboutD．
A．the history of music．
B．the popularity of music．
C．the different types of music．
D．the development of listening to music．

3．"There are many ways of being smart that aren't smart like us．"These are the words of Patrick Winston，a leading voice in the field of artificial intelligence．Although his idea is simple，its significance has been lost on most people thinking about the future of work．Yet this is the feature of Al that ought to preoccupy us the most．
   From the 1950s to the 1980s．it was generally thought that the best way to build systems capable of performing tasks to the level of human experts or higher was to copy the way that experts worked．But there was a problem：human experts often struggled to explain how they performed many tasks．Chess-playing was a good example．When asked to explain how they played chess well，some grandmasters appealed to"intuition"（真愛），others to"experience"．Many said they did not really know at all．How could researchers build a chess-playing system to beat a grandmaster if the best players themselves could not explain how they were so good？
  A turning point came in 1997．Deep Blue，IBM's supercomputer，beat Garry Kasparov，the ihen world chess champion，in a six-game match．What was most remarkable was how the system did it．Deep Blue did not share Mr Kasparov's"intuition"or"experience"．It won by means of absolute processing power and massive data storage ability．
  Consider the legal world．Daniel Martin Katz，a law professor，has designed a system to predict the voting behaviour of the US Supreme Court．It can perform as well as most specialists，but it does not mirror the judgement of a human being．Instead it draws on data that capture six decades of Court behaviour．
  We see similiar developments in other parts of life．Surely，all these point to a future that is very different from the one most experts are predicting．It is often said that there are many tasks that will always require human beings to perform because machines cannot"think"，"reason"or"feel"like human beings．But this is to fail to grasp that tomorrow's systems will handle many tasks not by copying us but by working in entirely different，unhuman ways．The set of tasks reserved particularly for human beings is likely to be much smaller than many expect．

46．The example of chess-playing mainly shows thatC．
A．it's important for a chess-playing system to beat a grandmaster
B．human experts nave various responses for their good performance
C．it's difficult to build systems by copying the way human experts work
D．the way human experts work can be of great benefit to building systems
47．According to the passage，what's the reason for Deep Blue's success over Garry？D
A．It shared Garry's intuition and experience．
B．It's designed to think like a human expert．
C．Garry was not able enough lo beat supercomputer．
D．It was equipped with a powerful data processing system．
4S．What's ihe author's purpose of writing Paragraph 4？B
A．To present more details．
B．To offer another example．
C．To give further explanation．
D．To share deeper understanding．
49．Which of the following best shows ihe structure of the passage？C
A．①②③--④⑤
B．①②--③④--⑤
C．①--②③④--⑤
D．①--②③--④⑤
50．What can we infer from the last paragraph？B
A．Systems are expected to be more humanlike．
B．More tasks are likely to be handled by systems．
C．Human beings are certain to be replaced by systems．
D．Tasks tomorrow are supposed to be more demanding．
