He or she makes sure that the newspaper comes out on time each day and that costs are kept within a budget．He or she is usually responsible for hiring and firing news room staff，and serves as the spokesperson for the newspaper. The managing editor may also be involved in story，photo and graphics selection，assignments，laying out pages，and editing copy and writing headlines.‎ The news editor is in charge of the news pages of the newspaper. He or she makes decisions on which stories are used and which are not. The news editor and his or her assistants also lay out pages of the paper.‎ The copy editor edits wire and local stories and writes headlines. The copy editor is often the last person to see a story before it actually appears in print.‎ The city editor makes sure that the news in the city is covered and that as many local stories as possible get into each edition. The city editor not only supervises(负责) the local general assignment but also supervises reporters who cover communities and areas outside the city but still within the circulation(发行) area of the newspaper.‎ The national editor supervises reporters in bureaus(分社) in cities outside the circulation area of the newspaper. Most newspapers rely on the wire services for national news，but some have ‎ correspondents who work in other cities and report to the national editor.‎ ‎21．If you want to apply for a job in a newspaper news room，you are likely to be interviewed by________.‎ A．the news editor B．the national editor C．the city editor D．the managing editor ‎22．From the passage，we can learn that________.‎ A．the managing editor is mainly responsible for laying out pages of the paper B．the news editor determines which stories are used C．the copy editor is often the first person to see the story D．the national editor supervises the local general assignment ‎23．The underlined word “correspondents” in the last paragraph probably means________.‎ A．reporters B．postmen C．writers D．messengers ‎24．What’s mainly discussed in this passage?‎ A．How newspapers are made.

From self-driving cars to carebots (care+robots) for elderly people, rapid development in technology has long represented a possible threat to many jobs normally performed by people. But experts now believe that almost 50 percent of occupations existing today will be completely unnecessary by 2025 as artificial intelligence continues to change businesses. ‎ ‎“The next fifteen years will see a revolution in how we work, and a revolution will necessarily take place in how we plan and think about workplaces,” said Peter Andrew, Director of Workplace Strategy for CBRE Asia Pacific. ‎ A growing number of jobs in the future will require creative intelligence, social skills and the ability to use artificial intelligence.‎ The report is based on interviews with 200 experts, business leaders and young people from Asia Pacific, Europe and North America. It shows that in the US technology already destroys more jobs than it creates.‎ But the report states: “Losing occupations does not necessarily mean losing jobs --- just changing what people do.” growth in new jobs could occur as much, according to the research. “The growth of 20 to 40 person companies that have the speed and technological know-how(专门技术) will directly challenge big companies,” it states.‎ A 2014 report by Pew Research found 52 percent of experts in artificial intelligence and robotics were optimistic about the future and believed there would still be enough jobs in the next few years. The optimists pictured “a future in which robots do not take the place of more jobs than they create,” according to Aaron Smith, the report’s co- author.‎ ‎“Technology will continue to affect jobs, but more jobs seem likely to be created. Although there have always been unemployed people, when we reached a few billion people there were billions of jobs. There is no shortage of things that need to be done and that will not change,” Microsoft’s Jonathan Grudin told researchers.‎ ‎25. We can infer from the text that in the future _________.‎ A. people will face many difficulties ‎ B. people will take up more creative jobs C. artificial intelligence will threaten people’s lives ‎ D. most jobs will be done in traditional workplaces ‎26. According to the report, ________.‎ A. people won’t necessarily lose jobs B. big companies will face fewer challenges C. small companies will win against big companies D. most people will become interested in technology ‎27. What is the attitude of most experts in artificial intelligence and robotics to the future?‎ ‎ A. Mixed. B. Worried. C. Hopeful. D. Doubtful.‎ ‎28.Jonathan Grudin’s words in the last paragraph suggest that ________.‎ ‎ A. there will be enough jobs for people B. things will change a lot in a few years ‎ C. many people will become unemployed D. technology will totally change future jobs C MONTREAL (Reuters) -Crossing the US-Canada border to go to church on a Sunday cost a US citizen $10,000 for breaking Washington's strict new security (安全) rules.      The expensive trip to church was a surprise for Richard Albert, who lives right on the Canadian border. Like the other half-dozen people of Township 15, crossing the border is a daily occurrence for Albert. The nearby Quebec village of St. Pamphile is where they shop, eat and go to church.      There are many such situations in these areas along the largely unguarded 5, 530-mile border between Canada and the US, which in some cases actually runs down the middle of streets or through buildings.      As a result, Albert says he did not expect any problems three weeks ago when he returned home to the US after attending church in Canada, as usual. The US customs(海关) station in this area is closed on Sundays, so he just drove around the locked gate, as he had done every weekend since the gate appeared last May, following a tightening of border security. Two days later, Albert was told to go to the customs office, where an officer told him he had been caught on camera crossing the border illegally(非法).      Ottawa has given out special passes to some 300 US citizens in that area so they can enter the country when Canadian customs stations are closed, but the US stopped a similar program last May. That forces the people to an extra 200-mile drive along hilly roads to get home through another border checkpoint.      Albert has requested that the customs office change their decisions on the fine, but he has not attended a Sunday church since. "I feel like I'm living in a prison," he said. 29. We learn from the text that Richard Albert is _______. A. a Canadian working in a customs station B. a Canadian living in a Quebec village C. an American living in Township 15 D. an American working in a Canadian church 30.. Albert was fined because he _______. A. failed to obey traffic rules B. damaged the gate of the customs office C. worked in St. Pamphile without a pass D. broke the American security rules 31. What would be the best title for the text? A. A Cross-country Trip B. A Special Border Pass C. An Expensive Church Visit D. An Unguarded Border ‎ D LEARNING BOOKS Basic Study Skills Hardcover: $37.5‎ ‎ Here are the answers to the questions most often asked by parents, teachers, business trainers and by students themselves.
