Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A) , B) , C) and D) . You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center. Passage OneQuestions 61 to 65 are based on the following passage:In some countries as many as nine out of ten adults read at least one newspaper a day. Seen in purely business terms，few products can ever have been so successful in reaching as much of their market. Why do so many people read newspapers?There are five basic functions of a newspaper：to inform，to comment，to persuade，to instruct and to entertain. You may well think that this list of functions is in order of importance but，if so，you would not be in agreement with the majority of the reading public. Of the two broad categories of newspaper，the popular and the quality，the former has a readership of mil lions，while the latter，only hundreds of thousands. Yet the popular papers seem largely designed for entertainment. They contain a lot of comment and persuasive language. The quality newspapers put a much higher value on information and a much lower one on entertainment. It is not only in content that the two kinds of paper differ.

Their reporters tend to use shorter sentences and avoid less wellknown vocabulary. This means that popular newspapers are easier for a native speaker to understand though probably not for a non-native speaker. In order to decide whether a newspaper is a quality or a popular one it is not even necessary to read it。since you can tell simply by the way it looks. Popular papers are generally smaller with fewer and shorter articles. But they have bigger headlines and more photographs61. Out of 500，_ adults read a newspaper every day according to the passage.

Passage TwoQuestions 66 to 70 arc based on the following passage: “It hurts me more than you”，and “This is for your own good. ”These are the statements my mother used to make years ago when I had to learn Latin, clean my room，stay home and do homework. That was before we entered the permissive period in education in which we decided it was all right not to push our children to achieve their best in sch001. The schools and educators made it easy on us, They taught that it was all right to be parents who take a let-alone policy. We stopped making our children do homework. We gave them calculators，turned on the television, left the teaching to teachers and went on vacation. Now, teachers，faced with children who have been developing at their own pace for the past 15 years，are realizing weve made a terrible mistake. One such teacher is Sharon Klompus，who says of her students-“so passive”-and wonders what happened. Nothing was demanded of them，she believes.
