News and current affairs magazines are becoming more popularbut celebrity (名人), gossip and fashion publications are still struggling.“Gossip and celebrity news is rarely something that requires detailed analysisso its best suited to bite-sized content on social media,” says Ian Burrell, media columnist for The Drum. “Once its out there, its quickly shared and readers move on to the next star. No one wants to wait a week to read about it in a print magazine.”Fraser Nelson, editor of The Spectator, wrote this week: “Theres now too much writing online, and in an era of fake news, where you get your analysis from has never been more important. As newspapers and magazines are finding out, if you can publish writing that is consistently better than what can be found online, people will pay.”But many editors are struggling to strike the right balance between physical and digital content. They are faced with the choice of either posting all their articles online for free so the magazine stays relevant, or charging readers money to protect the financial future of the brand.As Burrell points out, most readers are hungry for a deeper understanding of the fast-moving changes in global news and politics rather than seeking to escape from it by burying their heads in celebrity gossip and entertainment stories.Serious times call for serious journalism. While general-interest daily news has been turned into an almost universally available commodity (商品) by the Internet, specialist journalism is still a service people value and think they cant get elsewhere.21. What does Ian Burrell think of celebrity news?A. It isnt worth reading. B. It isnt worth analyzing.C. It should be read carefully. D. It should appear on magazines.22. What did Fraser Nelson mainly stress?A. The importance of news sources.B. The significance of current affairs.C. The value of newspapers and magazines.D. The balance between physical and digital content.23. What can be inferred from Burrell s opinion in Paragraph 6?A. Most readers are fond of rapid changes.B. Most readers tend to escape from reality.C. Most readers like entertainment news best.D. Most readers show great interest in global news and politics.24. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A. Where Magazines Will Go in the Future.B. What Makes Some Magazines Disappear.C. How Magazines Are Surviving the Digital Age.D. Why People Are Still Reading Fashion Publications.BIts exciting to imagine how future humans will have solved the problems we have now, or what amazing new inventions will make our lives more convenient and interesting. We asked top scientists to share their predictions on what the world will be like in a century. If theyre right, the 2114 is going to be really cool.1. Robots will do your chores and more.Robots will be doing most of our jobs, from building homes to teaching math. There are already robots that clean floors and pump gas. In the future they will be more complicated and useful. Unfortunately, with robots taking all the jobs, unemployment will be high.2. You will read minds.Speaking of being social, we will communicate in an entirely different way. Forget texts and emails. Mindreading technology will allow us to send thoughts to each other without speaking a word. We will also be able to send thoughts to objects around us. (Instead of pressing “start” on the microwave, you could just think “start”.) Meanwhile, chips implanted(植入) in our brains will improve memory and intelligence.3. Your car will drive you.Today, around 30,000 Americans die in car accidents each year. One hundred years from now, accidents will be a thing of the past. According to Mark Safford, consultant or the U.S. department of Transportation, future cars will drive themselves. These electric cars will communicate with other cars on the road to travel safely in close formation at high speeds.4. You will eat fake meat.Raising animals is not an efficient way to produce food, and it harms the environment. Cows, chickens, and pigs eat a lot, and then we have to deal with all that poop(糞便). Whats more, that poop can poison lakes, rivers, and streams. Today, scientists can “grow” meat in a lab from animal cells, but its expensive and not very delicious. In the future, they will have perfected the process. Youll order hamburgers that come from factories, not cows. Scientists may even find ways to make lab grown meat tastier and healthier than the real thing.25. According to the passage, what is likely to happen when robots become more common in the future?A. People will be much lazier. B. More people will lose their jobs.C. People may become physically weaker. D. More people may become less intelligent.26. Mind-reading technology will help people to _.A. have a good memory B. talk to other creaturesC. read books efficiently D. convey messages silently27. According to the passage, in the future cars will be _.A. less popular B. more expensiveC. much easier to operate D. much smaller and lighter28. Future meat will be _.A. much more harmless B. less tasty but healthierC. more organic and delicious D. more environmentally friendlyCThe days of having to carry a phone charger everywhere could soon be over. Michigan researchers have revealed a major breakthrough in harvesting energy from human motion. They say it could lead to smart phones powered for a week by the motion of a swipe (重?fù)?.Michigan State Universitys low-cost device, known as a nano generator, has already been tested. Scientists success fully operated an LED touch screen, a bank of 20 LED lights and a flexible keyboard, all with a simple touching or pressing motion and without the aid of a battery. The groundbreaking findings, published in the journal Nano Energy, suggest “Were on the path toward wearable devices powered by human motion,” said Nelson Sepulveda, associate professor of electrical and computer engineering and lead researcher of the project.“What I foresee, relatively soon, is the capability of not having to charge your cellphone for an entire week, for example, because that energy will be produced by your movement,” said Sepulveda, whose research is funded by the National Science Foundation.Electrical energy is created when the device is compressed by human motion. The completed device is as thin as a sheet of paper. The device used to power the LED lights was palm-sized, while the device used to power the touch screen was as small as a finger. Advantages such as being lightweight, flexible and low -cost could make it a promising and alternative method in the field of Mechanical-energy harvesting.The device also becomes more powerful when folded. Sepulveda said, “You can start with a large device, but when you fold it once again and again, its much smaller and has more energy. Now it may be small enough to put in a specially made heel of your shoe so it creates power each time your heel strikes the ground.”Sepulveda and his team are also developing technology that would transmit the power generated by the heel strike to, say, a wireless headset.29. The underlined word “device” in the second paragraph probably refers to .A. a piece of equipment B. a special kind of smart phoneC. a touch screen D. a flexible keyboard30. What can we learn about Nelson Sepulveda in the passage?A. He works as a journalist writing for Nano Energy.B. He plays a major role in the project of the nano generator.C. He invented a type of battery-free smart phone.D. He collects funds for the National Science Foundation.31. From the passage we know that the nano generator .A. becomes more powerful when kept flatB. has already come into market in the USAC. is light weight and flexible though expensiveD. makes it possible to produce power by walking32. The purpose of the passage is to .A. persuade people to buy the deviceB. bring in a new way to save energyC. introduce a breakthrough in scienceD. honor Nelson Sepulveda for his contributionsDPurpose of the WolfpacketThe Wolfpacket aims to inform students of current and relevant events and issues.
