Unit 4 Making the news
五年高考练
Ⅰ.阅读理解
(2019课标全国Ⅲ,C,)
Before the 1830s, most newspapers were sold through annual subscriptions in America, usually $8 to $10 a year. Today $8 or $10 seems a small amount of money, but at that time these amounts were forbidding to most citizens. Accordingly, newspapers were read almost only by rich people in politics or the trades. In addition, most newspapers had little in them that would appeal to a mass audience. They were dull and visually forbidding. But the revolution that was taking place in the 1830s would change all that.
The trend, then, was toward the “penny paper”—a term referring to papers made widely available to the public. It meant any inexpensive newspaper; perhaps more importantly it meant newspapers that could be bought in single copies on the street.
This development did not take place overnight. It had been possible(but not easy) to buy single copies of newspapers before 1830, but this usually meant the reader had to go down to the printer's office to purchase a copy. Street sales were almost unknown. However, within a few years, street sales of newspapers would be commonplace in eastern cities. At first the price of single copies was seldom a penny—usually two or three cents was charged—and some of the older well-known papers charged five or six cents. But the phrase “penny paper” caught the public's fancy, and soon there would be papers that did indeed sell for only a penny.
This new trend of newspapers for “the man on the street” did not begin well. Some of the early ventures(企业) were immediate failures. Publishers already in business, people who were owners of successful papers, had little desire to change the tradition. It took a few youthful and daring businessmen to get the ball rolling.

How to Do Man-on-the-Street Interviews
The man-on-the-street interview is an interview in which a reporter hits the streets with a cameraman to interview people on the spot. 1 But with these tips, your first man-on-the-street interview experience can be easy.
When your boss or professor sends you out to do man-on-the-street interviews for a story, think about the topic and develop a list of about ten general questions relating to it. For example, if your topic is about environmental problems in America, you might ask,“Why do you think environmental protection is important in America ” 2 
Hit the streets with confidence. 3 Say,“Excuse me, I work for XYZ News, and I was wondering if you could share your opinion about this topic.”This is a quick way to get people to warm up to you.
Move on to the next person if someone tells you she is not interested in talking on camera. Don't get discouraged.
 4 Each interview that you get on the street shouldn't be longer than ten minutes. As soon as you get the answer you need, move on to the next person. Make sure that as you go from interview to interview, you are getting a variety of answers. If everyone is giving you the same answer, you won't be able to use it. A safe number of interviews to conduct is about six to ten. 5 
If your news station or school requires interviewees to sign release forms to appear on the air, don't leave work without them.
release form 授权协议书
A.Limit your time.
B.As you approach people, be polite.
C.If you don't own a camera, you can buy one.
D.For new reporters, this can seem like a challenging task.
E.To get good and useful results, ask them the same question.
F.That number of interviews should give you all the answers you need.
G.With a question like this, you will get more than a “Yes” or “No” reply.

五年高考练
Ⅰ.◎语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。主题语境为人与社会,主题语境内容是社会进步。文章介绍了报纸走向街头,走向大众的过程。文章侧重对学生历史和社会文化素养的培养。
1.B 细节理解题。本题题干意为:下面哪个选项对19世纪30年代之前美国报纸状况的描述是最准确的 根据文章第一段的描述可知,当时的报纸很昂贵,只有富人才能买得起。同时,当时的很多报纸对大众没有吸引力。因此B项(没有吸引力的)符合题意。A:学术的;C:便宜的;D:机密的。
2.C 推理判断题。本题题干意为:街头销售对报纸来说意味着什么 根据文章第二段的描述,当报纸开始在街头销售之后,价格很低,容易买到,所以C项(它们会有更多的读者)符合题意。A:它们的定价将会更高;B:它们将从城市消失;D:它们将重获公众的信任。
3.B 细节理解题。本题题干意为:新趋势下报纸的目标群体是哪些人 根据文章第二段和第三段对报纸改革的描述,尤其是第二段的The trend,then, was toward the “penny paper”—a term referring to papers made widely available to the public.可知,新的趋势为报纸大众化。故B项(普通人)符合题意。
4.A 推理判断题。本题题干意为:我们可以如何评价“一分报纸”的诞生 根据文章对“一分报纸”发展历程的描述,尤其是最后一段的This new trend of newspapers for “the man on the street” did not begin well.(这种面向街头普通人的报纸的新趋势一开始发展得并不好。)可知,A项(这是一个艰难的过程)符合题意。B:这是暂时的成功;C:这是对贫穷者的掠夺;D:这对印刷工人来说是灾难。
原句 In addition, most newspapers had little in them that would appeal to a mass audience. 分析 本句是一个包含定语从句的主从复合句。其中主干是most newspapers had little in them。that would appeal to a mass audience是定语从句,修饰little。 句意 此外,大多数报纸几乎没有吸引大众读者的内容。
Ⅱ.◎语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。街头采访对于新手记者来说可能是一大挑战,但只要按照作者在文章中提到的几个建议来做,你也可以轻松地完成任务。
1.D 由设空处后的But以及can be easy可以反推,该空讲的应该是街头采访并非易事。选项D“对于新手记者,这可能像是一项有挑战性的任务”符合语境。

3.B 设空处后的Excuse me以及I was wondering if you could...都体现了采访者的礼貌。这与选项B“当你接近人们时,要有礼貌”前后照应。
4.A 本空处于段落小标题的位置,应该能够概括本段中心,从设空处后的“你在街上的每次采访都不应超过十分钟”可知进行街头采访时要控制好时间。选项A符合语境。
5.F 根据空前的“A safe number of interviews to conduct is about six to ten.”可知,采访的次数不要过多,以约6至10次为宜。而选项F “这一数量的采访应该能给你你所需要的全部答案”中的that number of interviews与设空处前的a safe number of interviews前后照应。故选F。
Ⅲ.◎语篇解读 本文是夹叙夹议类文章,主题语境为人与社会,主题语境内容为人际关系与社会交往。文章介绍了琼斯警探通过在公园里设立聊天长凳的方式打破人们之间隐形的交流障碍,增加人们之间的交流,促进对彼此的了解。
