The earliest daily newspaper was started in Rome in 59 BC. In the 700s the worlds first printed newspaper was published. Europe didnt have a regularly published newspaper until 1609, when one was started in Germany.The first regularly published newspaper in the English language was printed in Amsterdam in 1620. In 1621, an English newspaper was started in London and was published once a week. The first daily English newspaper was the Daily Courant (每日新闻). It came out in March 1702.In 1690, Benjamin Harris printed the first American newspaper in Boston. But not long after it was first published, the government stopped the paper. In 1704, John Campbell started The Boston Newsletter (波士顿新闻通讯), the first newspaper published in the American colonies. By 1760, the colonies had more than thirty daily newspapers. There are now about 1,800 daily papers in the United States.Today, as a group, English language newspapers have the largest circulation in the world. But the largest circulation for a newspaper is that of the Japanese newspaper Asahi Dhimbun (朝日新闻).It sells more than 11 million copies every day. 56.

This employee needs no lunch hours or holidays. Working 24 hours a day is not a problem. Best of all, he or she is both accurate and efficient. There are few mistakes and tasks are finished quickly.Any manufacturer would want a worker like this in a factory. Many more products could bemade and sold if workers never stopped. Thats why there are more and more robots at work today. Robots do a wide variety of tasks. They weld (焊接), drill, and paint new cars. They locateunderwater pollution sites. Robots handle poisons. Most of their work is too dangerous, difficult, or unpleasant for people to do. By doing the dirty work, a robot is a workers helper, or aide.Few robots look anything like people. They are machine. Like other pieces of machinery, they come in different shapes and sizes. The way they are built depends on the jobs they do. Most have a single arm that can lift things. Most are built to handle tools.Each robot has a computer inside it. The computer tells it what to do. Skilled technicians enter directions into this computer. They are trained for this job.The years ahead may be the era(时代) of robots. People are using them more and more. Already robots have explored active volcanoes and the ocean floor. Modern robots can maneuver in space. With their skillful movements, they can serve satellites that cannot be reached by humans. Some new uses will include harvesting crops and working in open pit mines. Robots can help us to live better and learn more about our world.60What mentioned in this passage is really .A.a hard-working worker B.a day-dreamerC.a manufacturer D. an advanced machine61Robots can do everything accurately and efficiently because .A. there are computers in them B. they have brainsC.they are technicians D.the manufacturer is helping them62Why do we regard the years ahead as the era of robots? Because .A.no human beings will live on earth B.robots will dominate the earthC.robots will do more and more jobs which people arent supposed to doDhumans neednt do anything that robots can do63The underlined word “maneuver” means .A.to keep still B.to sleep carefully C. to move skillfully D.to do everything perfectly CIt was once thought that air pollution affected only the area immediately around large cities with factories and/or heavy automobile traffic. Today, we know that although these are the areas with the worst air pollution, the problem is actually worldwide. On several occasions over the past decade, a heavy cloud of air pollution has covered the entire eastern half of the United States and led to health warnings even in rural areas away from any major concentration of manufacturing and automobile traffic. In fact, the very climate of the entire earth may be affected by air pollution. Some scientists feel that the increasing concentration of carbon dioxide in the air resulting from the burning of fossil fuels (coal and oil) is creating a “greenhouse effect - holding in heat reflected from the earth and raising the worlds average temperature. If this view is correct and the worlds temperature is raised only a few degrees, much of the polar ice cap will melt and cities such as New York, Boston, Miami, and New Orleans will be under water.Another view, less widely held, is that increasing particulate (废气排往空中而形成的微粒、颗粒) matter in the atmosphere is blocking sunlight and lowering the earths temperature a result that would be equally disastrous. A drop of just a few degrees could create something close to new ice age and would make agriculture difficult or impossible in many of our top farming areas. At present we do not know for sure that either of these conditions will happen (though one recent government report prepared by experts in the field concluded that the greenhouse effect is very likely). Perhaps, if we are very lucky, the two tendencies will offset each other and the worlds temperature will stay about the same as it is now.64. As pointed out at the beginning of the passage, people used to think that air pollution _.A. caused widespread damage in the countrysideB. affected the entire eastern half of the United StatesC. had damaging effects on healthD. existed merely in urban and industrial areas65. As far as the greenhouse effect is concerned, the author _.A. shares the same view with the scientistsB. is uncertain of its occurrenceC. rejects it as being ungroundedD. thinks that it will destroy the world soon66. The underlined word “offset in Para. 2 could best be replaced by_.A. make up for B. slip into C. set up D. catch up with67. This passage is mainly concerned with _.A. the greenhouse effect B. the burning of fossil fuelsC. the possibility of a new ice ageD the potential effect of air pollution DAustin Childrens MuseumThis 7,000-square-foot museum aims to entertain and educate children up to age 9.
