Some people buy as many as two or three different papers.Why do people read newspaper?Newspapers supply us with news about events in our hometowns, in our country, and in other parts of the world. Today we can read about important things that took place in foreign countries on the same day they happened, even in countries far away. But hundreds of years ago, news of things took months or even years to travel from one country to another. In those times, news was often passed from one person to another and never completely true. Newspapers today supply us with more than just what happened in our country or in other countries. If we want to know what the weather will be like, we can read the weather reports. If we want to find out what films are being shown, or what plays or concerts we can go to we can look in the newspapers.In many countries people put notices in newspapers if they are trying to get a job, hunting for a house or rooms that they can rent,or even when looking for a person who is lost.根据短文内容，判断以下句子的正（T）误（F） 。（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）46.

I am sure that constant practice will help you succeed. 根据短文内容，从A,B,C,D 四个选项中选出正确答案。55. What is the best topic for the passage?A. How to speak to foreigners. B. How to study English well. C.

Hundreds more are on the danger list today. About 170 kinds in the United States alone are considered in danger. Why should people care? Because we need animals. And because once they are gone, there will never be any more. Animals are more than beautiful or interesting. They are more than just a source of food. Every animal has its place in the balance of nature. Destroying one kind of animals can cause many problems. For example, when farmers killed large numbers of hawks, the farmers stores of corn and grain were destroyed by rats and mice. Why? Because hawks eat rats and mice . With no hawks to keep down their numbers, the rats and mice multiplied quickly. Luckily, some people are working to help save the animals. Some groups raise money to let people know about the problem. And they try to get the governments to pass laws protecting animals in danger. Quite a few countries have passed laws. These laws forbid the killing of any animal or plant on the danger list. Slowly, the number of some animals in danger is growing.根据短文内容，从A,B,C,D 四个选项中选出正确答案。58.
