第一節(jié)(共15小題;每小題2分,滿分30分)
閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的四個選項(A、B、C和D) 中,選出最佳選項。
A
If you and I met at a party,you would probably ask me what I do for a living,what town I live in — the kind of questions that would help you to build a picture of who I am. I might ask the same of you,but I probably wouldn,t be listening. It's more likely i’d be looking at the label on your jeans,glancing at your shoes,and eyeing up your mobile phone. These are the things that really tell me who you are. In fact,I sincerely hope you would notice the same things about me. Well,that's the way it was a year ago.
I began to behave like this at a very early age. I remember the first day of junior school,standing alone in the playground,desperately wanting to make friends. I headed straight for what seemed be the most promising group of boys. They were talking to girls,trading football cards,eating green sweets 一all the things I wanted to do. As I attempted to talk with them,one boy asked me, “Do you support Manchester United Football Club?” Another asked, “Are you into Michael Jackson?” I answered yes to them all,even though the truthful answer was no.
Things seemed to be going well until one of the boys caught sight of my trainers. I'd never thought too much about them before. They were just plain blue sports shoes that Mum had bought,for playing in the back garden. At once,the group laughed very loudly, ^Where did you get those from? A charitable organization?”
Looking at the boys in bewilderment I noticed for the first time that they all had similar shapes on the sides of their trainers,like the ones on footballers’ boots on television. It wasn,t just their shoes: crocodiles,eagles and tigers sat on the breasts of their T-shirts,and every single boy seemed to have the same school bag,a blue plastic bag with a leaping puma in silver on the side. I walked away quietly,depressed. From that day on,I was determined to be like them,if not more so.

B
The planned “migration” of BBC3 from broadcast to the Internet in the autumn of 2015 means the “Youth” section of the BBC’s audience with the least political power and the fewest public voices will become an afterthought (事后想起的事) .
I don't watch BBC3. Equally,I question its credentials(資格) as the home of yoythfiil innovation when I note a lot of Doctor Who md Top Gear reruns on an evening-only channel. But BBC3 isn’ t aimed at me. For me,and for the rest of the white,middle-aged licence-fee payers who have arguments over the company's output,there are plenty of alternatives(替代品) .
Some would say the company's rapid expansion at the start of the century now looks like overconfidence. The attempt to provide an excellent service to all ages and all interests in a multi-channel world might have been considered as a modem version of the old BBC mission to educate,inform and entertain; but it appears to have been misjudged.
You could ask how the hard financial choices are made and why. BBC3 has 13 million viewers a week. In August last year, Radio 4 hit a “record-breaking” weekly score of 10. 97 million.
Which group is better placed to influence those who run the BBC? To whom would politicians listen?
The answer is obvious. If yOU believe that the Today programme is a bit more important to society than Snog Marry Avoid?, you' 11 probably think the obvious answer is the right answer. But the BBC3 viewer base consists of about a million of the young unemployed — less likely to be white and middle class than the Radio 4 fan base; more likely to be excluded from the political process. They are no match for the grey power of pensioners.
To my taste,most of the things on BBC3 are rubbish. But I'm delighted to see that the BBC will go on trying to cater to (迎合) my interests and tastes for a long time to come,just as it will go on serving up EastEnders and witless talent shows to those numerous enough not to be seen as a minority.
For whom does the BBC exist? The minority — young Britain — just got pushed to the back of the queue.
6. Among whom is BBC3 popular?
A. The old. B. The youth.
C. The adults. D. The middle-aged.
7. The BBC's attempt to satisfy all audiences.
A. attracted more viewers
B. proved to be a big success
C. suffered financial difficulties
D. got support from the government
8. The underlined part “excluded from” in , Paragraph 5 can be replaced by .
A. lost in B. kept out of
C. involved in D. taken care of
9. What does the author think of BBC3?
A. It is an awful channel.
B. It will have a bright future.
C. It should be aimed at all ages.
D. It cannot be replaced by other channels.
10. What does the text mainly discuss?
A. Who should run the BBC?
B. For whom does Radio 4 exist?
C. What programmes should BBC3 run?
D. Who decided BBC3's online migration?
