事件刚刚发生,街上就有报纸报道详情了。世界上无论什么地方发生事情,现场的消息报道就出现了。报纸有一个基本的目的,即尽快从消息来源地、消息制造者处获得消息,并把它传递给想要知道消息的人。无线电、电报、电视及其他发明是报纸的竞争对手。杂志和其他通讯方式的发展也给报纸带来竞争。然而,这种竞争只是加速了报纸的发展。报纸很快地利用更新、更快的通讯手段来提高速度,进而改善自身的运作效率。现在发行的报纸远远超过了以前任何时候。竞争也使报纸向其他许多领域扩展。除了不断为读者提供最新的新闻外,现在的报纸还通过政治报道和其他的重要事件来教育和影响读者,通过广告来影响读者的经济选择。大部分报纸依靠广告收入来维持生存,其售价较低,甚至不足以抵付其成本的一小部分。大部分报纸的收入来源于商业广告,而广告业务的成功取决于报纸在客户(要登广告的人)心中的价值。这种价值是以发行量来衡量的。有多少人阅读该报纸呢?发行量的大小,很大程度上取决于发行部门的工作及报纸所提供的服务或娱乐。但是,很大程度上,报纸作为关于社区、城市、国家、州、民族、世界甚至外层空间的信息来源,它的发行量取决于其对读者的价值。

  Methods of studying vary; what works 67 for some students doesn’t work at all for others. The only thing you can do is experiment 68 you find a system that does work for you. But two things are sure: 69 else can do your studying for you, and unless you do find a system that works, you won’t get through college. Meantime, there are a few rules that 70 for everybody. The hint is “don’t get 71 ”.The problem of studying, 72 enough to start with, becomes almost 73 when you are trying to do three 74 in one weekend. 75 the fastest readers have trouble 76 that. And if you are behind in written work that must be 77,
the teacher who accepts it 78 late will probably not give you good credit. Perhaps he may not accept it 79. Getting behind in one class because you are spending so much time on another is really no 80. Feeling pretty virtuous about the seven hours you spend on chemistry won’t 81 one bit if the history teacher pops a quiz. And many freshmen do get into trouble by spending too much time on one class at the 82 of the others, either because they like one class much better or because they find it so much harder that they think, they should 83 all their time to it. 84 the reason, going the whole work for one class and neglecting the rest of them is a mistake, if you face this 85, beginwith the shortest and easiest 86. Get them out of the way and then go to the more difficult, time consuming work.
  67.[A]good[B]easily

【全文翻译】
  学习的方法大不相同,对一些学生有效的方法对其他人不一定起作用。你唯一能做的就是要进行实验,直到到一个适合自己的学习方法。但是有两件事是肯定的:没有人能替你学习,而且如果你不到适合自己的学习方法,你就不会通过大学考试。同时,还有一些对每个人都起作用的规则,例如不要落后学习的问题是,一开始的时候是非常难的,而当你尝试在一周内完成三周的事情时则变得几乎不可能。即使是最好的读者也难以完成。如果你没有按时完成必须上交的书面任务,交的太迟,老师大概不会给你打个高分,也许他根本就不接受它。在其他科目上花费太多的时间不是你在某个科目上落后的真正借
口。在化学上花费七个小时感到非常有效,却对历史考试毫无帮助。许多大一新生的确陷入了困境,他们以牺牲其他课程为代价而在一门课程上花费了太多的时间,这要么因为他们喜欢一门课程超过其他各门课程,要么因为他们发现这门课程非常难,所以他们认为应该在这门课程上付出自己全部的时间。不管什么原因,对某门课程全力以赴而忽视其余的课程是不正确的。如果你面对这种诱惑,应该从最短、最容易的课程开始入手。完成它们后,再去学习更困难的、费时的课程。
【答案解析】
  67.【解析】[D]well是副词,good是形容词,所以A不可。此处要与后面的doesn’t work at all形成对比,而BC没有对比的作用。
  68.【解析】[A]此句的意思是你一直进行尝试,直到到适合自己的学习方法。因而此处的连词要表达直到的意思。
  69.【解析】[B]线索是空格后的else,两个词连起来表示“(除了你自己),别的任何人都不能……”
  70.【解析】[D] work常用于抽象的意义,表示起作用的意思。请参照第一句中的动词。
  71.【解析】[A] get (fall, be) behind等都表示落后的意思,根据上下文,显然是说,我们
学习上不要落后。
  72.【解析】[C]此处要求填一个形容词,A可排除。又根据上下文,可以理解出这句话的意思应该是:学习的问题是,一开始的时候是非常难的,而当你想在一周内完成三周的事情时则变得几乎是不可能的。这时谈的是难度的问题,因此选其他的答案是不合适的。如果直接解此题有困难,可以先做后面的题。
  73.【解析】[C]根据从句中的意思来判断本题的答案。要在一周内做三周的事,毫无疑问,应当说这是几乎不可能的。
  74.【解析】[C]表面考的是所有格的用法,实际上考的是名词的数。三周肯定是复数,week必须是复数形式;work是不可数名词。答案就一目了然了。
  75.【解析】[A]本题考查的是篇章词汇。解题也有两种方法。第一种方法从篇章的角度着手,承接上面一段,说的是学习的困难,在这里显然是说即使是读得最快的人也有困难,选A顺理成章。第二种方法从句法着手。这是一个简单句,显然不能填连词和介词,CD明显错误。单就本句来说,选almost也是不能的。
  76.【解析】[B] have trouble后要求接动名词。
  77.【解析】[A] turn in 的意思是交上去,上交,其他的选项是:turn up 出现; turn out
来,结果是;give in 让步。
  78.【解析】[D]此处表示过晚之意,用too
  79.【解析】[C]考查常用句型not ...at all
  80.【解析】[D]这一句及其下一句是说因为你在别的科花的时间太多而在另一科落后,前者不是后者的理由。所以此处要选表示借口、理由意思的词,即excuse
  81.【解析】[A]表示笼统的有用的动词是help
  82.【解析】[A] at the expense of的意思是……为代价
  83.【解析】[A]注意后面的介词to,所以这是一个固定搭配。
  84.【解析】[B]考查句型“What is the reason that ...”
  85.【解析】[C]前面所说的明显是一种诱惑,所以要选temptation
  86.【解析】[D]前面说的是上某课的事,所以选class

  For many people today, reading is no longer relaxation. To keep up their work they must read letters, reports, trade publications, interoffice communications, not to mention newspapers and magazines: a never ending flood of words. In 67 a job or advancing in one, the ability to read and comprehend 68 can mean the difference between success and failure. Yet the unfortunate fact is that most of us are 69 readers. Most of usdevelop poor reading 70 at an early age, andnever get over them. The main deficiency 71 in the actual stuff of language itself—words. Taken individually, words have 72 meaning until they are strung together into phrases, sentences and paragraphs. 73, however, the untrai
ned reader does not read groups of words. He laboriously reads one word at a time, often regressing to 74 words or passages. Regression, thetendency to look back over 75 you have just read, is a common bad habit in reading. Another habit which 76 down the speed of reading is vocalization—sounding each word either orally or mentally as 77 reads.
  To overcome these bad habits, some reading clinics use a device called an 78, which moves a bar (or curtain) down the page at a predetermined speed. The bar is set at a slightly faster rate 79 the reader finds comfortable, in order to “stretch” him. The accelerator forces the reader to read fast, 80 word-by-word reading,regression and sub-vocalization, practically impossible. At first 81 is sacrificed for speed. But when you learn to read ideas and concepts, you will not only read faster, 82 your comprehension will improve.Many people have found 83 reading skilldrastically improved after some training. 84 Charlce Au, a business manager, for instance, his reading rate was a reasonably good 172 words a minute 85 the training, now it is an excellent 1,378 words a minute.

  对于许多人来说,现在的阅读已经不再是一种放松了。为了继续他们的工作,他们必须
信件、报告、贸易出版物、办公室的文件,更不用说报纸和杂志了:永远不会结束的大量的字词。在获得工作或提升时,快速阅读和理解的能力就意味着成功和失败的差别。然而,不幸的是,我们当中的大多数人都不善于阅读。我们大多数人在早期养成了不好的阅读习惯,而且没有将其改掉。主要的困难在于语言的自身要素——词语。除非它们组合成词、句子和段落,单个的词语本身并没有意思。但是,不幸的是,没有受过训练的读者不会阅读词组。他每次都费力地阅读一个词,还经常回头去重读词语或文章。回头重读,就是再返回去看自己
  已经阅读过的东西,是一种常见的不良阅读习惯。另一种降低阅读速度的习惯是发声阅读——阅读时发声或默读每个单词
  为了克服这些坏习惯,一些阅读诊所采用了一种名为快速阅读器的工具,在页面上以预定的速度来移动一行(或者一页)。为了提高读者的阅读速度,设定的一行速度稍微快于读者感觉到舒服的速度。快速阅读器迫使读者加快阅读速度,使其不可能再逐字阅读、回顾文章内容或者默读。首先,理解以牺牲速度为代价。但是,当你学会阅读理念和概念时,你不仅会提高阅读速度,而且会提高理解能力。许多人发现,在经过训练后,他们的阅读能力获得了极大提高。以商务经理人Charlce Au为例,在接受训练前,他合理可靠的阅读
速度是每分钟172单词,现在他的阅读速度提高到每分钟1378公务员申论作文万能模板单词。在较短的时间内,他可以阅读完大量的材料,这让他非常欣慰。
