Reading comprehension. 18%(A)Reading newspapers has become an important part of our lives. Many people begin their day by reading the paper. In this way they learn what is happening in the world.Long ago, people learned the news from travelers who moved about the country from place to place.The first newspaper was written by hand and put up on walls in public places. It was only news-sheets, not really newspapers. The earliest daily newspaper was started in Rome in 59 B.C. In the 700?s the world?s first printed newspaper was published. Europe didn?t have a regularly published newspaper until 1609, when one was started in Germany.The first regularly published newspaper in English was printed in Amsterdam (阿姆斯特丹, 荷兰⾸都n.) in 1620?s. In 1621, an English newspa per was started in London and was published once a week. The first daily English newspaper was the Daily Courtant, which came out in March 1702.There are different kinds of newspapers to meet the need of each reader group. In big cities there are many kinds of papers. In small towns there are fewer newspapers. Some papers are published once a week. Most newspapers have many pages as well as the front page with the most important news.Nowadays, as a group, English language newspapers enjoy the largest number of readers in the world. But the largest number of readers goes to the Japanese newspaper Asahi Shimbun. It sells more than eleven million copies every year.True or false?( ) 1.

I saw a lot of people waiting at the station. Some were queueing, others were walking around. There was no place for me to sit or stand comfortably.I walked into the station cafe. I looked up at the clock there. It was only twenty to twelve. I founda seat and sat down before a large mirror on the wall. Just then, Pierre, who worked as a detective (侦探), came in and sat opposite. We were friends.“Nice to see you here, Sam. What time is your bus?” asked Pierre.“There?s plenty of time yet, almost one hour,” I replied.“Well, I?ll get you some more tea then,” said Pie rre.Some time later we heard loud laughter and I turned round to the table at the corner. I found some neighbours of mine there. “Oh, three of my neighbours are here having their lunch,” I pointed to the table in the cafe. Three young men were sitting at the table talking and laughing. “They?re Dick, Tommy and Bruce.”“But who?s who, Sam?” asked Pierre. “I think the one smoking the cigarette is Tommy, the one wearing the gray hat is Dick, and the one with the moustache (⼩胡⼦) is Bruce.”“Wrong! None is right!” I said.At that moment, the one with the moustache stood up from the table. “It's time for us to leave now, Dick,” he said. The other two stood up to leave.“Shall I tell you who?s who?” I asked Pierre while all the three were leaving.“No, you don?t need to. I?ve already known who is who, because I?m a detective,” answered Pierre. To my surprise, this time he was able to tell me who was who correctly.“You?re great!” Then I looked at the clock again. “Oh! It?s going backward (倒⾏)!” I cried. “A few minutes ago it was twenty to twelve and now it?s half past eleven. Is there still seventy minutes left? It?s weird!”“You?re looking at the clock in the mirror,” said Pierre. “I think it is time for you to catch the bus. If not, you will have to wait for almost another hour.”Choose the best answer:( ) 1. The writer went into the station cafe because ______.A.
