19.NEW YORK (Reuters)-The average number of monthly visitors to U.S.newspaper websites rose by nearly a third in the first half of 2006,a study released on Wednesday said,though print readership at some larger papers fell.
The study,released by the Newspaper Association of America,underlines the internet's importance to papers beset (圍困)by failing circulation and advertising income in their print editions.
The average number of unique visitors to online newspaper sites in the first half was more than 55.5 million a month,the study said.That compares with 42.2 million a year earlier."Newspaper websites have become a significant addition to the print product,and are driving large audience growth,"said John Kimball9 the association's chief marketing officer.The number of page views at newspaper sites rose by about 52 percent in the first half,the association added.
US Newspaper publishers have been fighting to hold on to advertisers as many of them lose readers to other media,including the Internet.
Key to the latest report is the finding that websites are bringing in more younger readers,the association said.
The Washington Post,s website increased its audience reach among readers aged 25 to 34 by more than 60 percent,the report said.Audience reach^combines the average weekly print audience and the net 30-day website audience.
Overall,newspaper websites helped drive a 15 percent increase in the total newspaper audience for 25-to-34-year olds and a 10-percent increase for 18-to 24-year olds,the association said.
It did not provide comparisons to the same period last year for total print newspaper readership.Readership numbers,which were provided by Scarborough Research,include circulation,shared copies and any other way that someone could end up reading a newspaper.
Print readership fell,according to a comparison of figures from the two periods conducted by Renter,.‘
The New York Times readership dropped 5.8 percent,while the largest U.S.paper,USA Today,fell 3 percent.The Wall Street Journal saw readership remain nearly the same.
39.Which would be the best title for the passage?A
A.Online Newspaper Readership Grows
B.Convenient Way to Read Newspapers
C.rThe Internet Is Taking over in the World
D.Print Newspapers Have Lost Their Advantages
40.Why have US Newspaper publishers been fighting?C
A.Because they want to earn more money.
B.Because they feel they have been out of date.

41. The reason why online newspaper readership increase is thatD•

4."Fire!Fire!"what terrible words to hear when one wakes up in a strange house in the middle of the night!
It was a large old wooden house and my room was on the top floor.I jumped out of the bed,opened the door and (61)stepped  (step) outside of the house.There was thick smoke everywhere.
I began to run,but as I was only half-awake,instead of going towards the stairs,I went in the opposite direction.The smoke grew (62)thicker (thick) and I could see fire all around.The floor became hot under my bare (63)feet (foot).
I found an open door and ran into a room to get to the window.But(64)before I could reach it,one of my feet caught something soft and I fell down.What I had fallen over felt like a bundle of clothes,and I picked it up(65)to protect(protect) my face from the smoke and heat.I crashed to the floor below with pieces of (66)burning(burn) wood all around me.
As I reached the cold air outside,the bundle of clothes gave out a thin cry.I nearly dropped it(67)in surprise.Then I was in a crowd gathering in the street.A woman (68)dressed  (dress) in a borrowed man's coat screamed as she saw me and ran towards me(69)madly (mad).
It turned out(70)that she was the Mayor's wife,and I had saved her baby.

14.Recently,I came across an interesting article on the differences between British English and American English.I had a lot of fun reading it and thinking of as many differences as I could as an American.
Their cars have"bonnets(發(fā)動(dòng)機(jī)罩)",while ours have"hoods".They park their cars in a"car park"while we leave our in a"parking lot".Our"cookies"are their"biscuits",while their"rubbers"are our"erasers".
Then there are the food words.Would you want to eat something called"Toad in the Hole"or"Bangers and Mash"or"Spotted Dick"?I'm here to report they are all very tasty.There are American equivalents(相等物),of course.We've got"Shoofly Mud Pie".What they call"crisps"is what we call"potato chips"and when we ask for"chips"in England we will get what we know at home in America as"French fries".
They find it hysterical that we call the"toilet"the"bathroom"and they really double over (彎腰) with laughter when we ask for the"restroom".American ladies in England who ask for the"little girl's room"or the"power room"will be met with blank stares.A"fag"is a"cigarette"in the UK,which can lead to endless confusion for British visitors looking for a cigarette in America.Americans on the other hand are endlessly confused by English signs put up over doorways saying"Way Out".We Americans walk on the sidewalk not the pavement."Pavement"in America is the actual cement(水泥)the sidewalk is made of.

25.What do British people call French fries?A
A.Chips.  B.Crisps.  C.Shoofly Pie.  D.Mississippi Mud Pie.

27.What does the underlined word"hysterical"in paragraph 4probably mean?A
