Billions of people learn about news stories of their own country and all over the world every day either by watching TV or reading newspapers.\nNewspapers have been an important part of everyday life since the 18th century. Many countries have hundreds of different newspapers. How do newspaper editors decide which news stories to print? Why do they print some stories and not others? What makes a good newspaper story?\nFirstly, it is important to report new stories. TV stations can report news much faster than newspapers, but newspapers give more about the same story. They may also look at the story in another way, or they may print completely different stories from those on TV.\nSecondly, a new story has to be interesting and unusual. People don't want to read stories about everyday life. As a result, many stories are about some kinds of danger and seem to be \"bad\" news. For example, newspapers never print stories about planes landing safely, instead they print stories about air crashes.\n\n<question>:\nAccording to the passage, how do people learn about news stories in the world now?\n\n<options>:\nA They tell others news stories from place to place on foot or by horse.\nB They learn about news stories by watching TV or reading newspapers.\nC They tell each other what they have seen with their eyes.\nD They listen to the radio every day to get some information.\n\n<answer>:\n",

Many countries have hundreds of different newspapers. How do newspaper editors decide which news stories to print? Why do they print some stories and not others? What makes a good newspaper story?\nFirstly, it is important to report new stories. TV stations can report news much faster than newspapers, but newspapers give more about the same story. They may also look at the story in another way, or they may print completely different stories from those on TV.\nSecondly, a new story has to be interesting and unusual. People don't want to read stories about everyday life. As a result, many stories are about some kinds of danger and seem to be \"bad\" news. For example, newspapers never print stories about planes landing safely, instead they print stories about air crashes.\n\n<question>:\nThe difference between newspaper stories and TV news reports is that people can _ .\n\n<options>:\nA learn more about the same news story from a newspaper\nB read the news story more quickly in a newspaper\nC read news stories in other countries only by reading newspapers\nD watch TV news reports about their own country\n\n<answer>:\n",

You know, you would not be seen among the tourists and lose lots of chances to get familiar with the country more closely. We started to think over our trip and tried to come up with a free tour to Italy.\nThe trip was not very long but it was so exciting that we never forgot. We look forward to going there again!

Of course I was afraid that something would go wrong and I was especially worried about my visa, but everything went quite well in the end.\nThe most difficult part was getting a visa without an invitation. In the Italian consulate , one must hand in some official paper proving that one has a hotel booked for oneself in order to get the visa. Then we had to solve the ticket problem. Airlines often sell cheap tickets and we bought ours far earlier. The next step was to book a hotel.

Our big house was among the forest. The beautiful views, nice hosts, comfortable living conditions made us happy to no end. Besides this, we were very lucky that our hostess was Russian. She gave us a lot of advice that was of great use. She told us what transport to choose and where the best places to go.\nDon't be afraid to arrange your trip by yourself. It's not difficult! The only thing I'll say right now is that we really enjoy travelling by ourselves. We walked with a map and a guide-book wherever we wanted to go and we even met some of our countrymen on the way just two or three times. So, if you're also planning a \"single\" trip, don't forget to take a Russian-Italian phrasebook as people in Italy prefer to speak in their local language.\n\n<question>:\nFrom the passage, we know the writer chose the free tour to Italy because _ .\n\n<options>:\nA his friend invited him there\nB he wanted to spend less money\nC it was very hard for him to find a travel agency\nD he wanted to get familiar with the country more closely\n\n<answer>:\n",

You can't imagine how excited I was when I got to know that there was going to be a free meal of hotpot to welcome the new students. On the way to the canteen, I seemed to smell huo guo in the air.\nTo my surprise, when I stepped into the room, I didn't see any sign of huo guo. Where was it?\nWith many questions in my head, I sat down to have the free meal. After talking with an English girl, I got to know that Chinese huo guo is completely different from hotpot. Chinese huo guo is written in two words-hot pot; and hotpot, one word, is a traditional English dish.\nHotpot is made from mutton and onion. On the top are pieces of potatoes. People put it in the oven all day in a heavy pot on a low heat. It takes very little effort to prepare. You can often see it at parties in the UK because it's easy to prepare for a large number of people and is not expensive.\nHotpot doesn't taste bad. However, I still miss huo guo-hot pot, two words!\n\n<question>:\nAfter the free meal, the writer learnt that _ .\n\n<options>:\nA \"hotpot\" wasn't \"hot pot\"\nB hotpot took little time to cook\nC hotpot wasn't traditional in the UK\nD the English girl knew little about hotpot\n\n<answer>:\n",
