【第一篇】

Representatives of Callahan Media Associates (CM　 [A] announced today that the news agency would attempt to buy the National Broadcasting System (NBS), the second largest television and radio network in the United States. Ronald Callahan, son of Jessica Callahan, who started CMA, told reporters that he expects his company's offering price to be high enough to win out over other offers. He indicated that NBS executives had already discussed reorganization plans that might result from a CMA takeover.

　　A native of the United Kingdom, Jessica Callahan began to buy newspapers, magazines, and radio stations in the United States eight years ago, and CMA now owns or controls more than fifteen news organizations here. Before she became a leader in media in this country, she had established her family-owned company as one of the most important forces in British TV and newspapers. Callahan started her news career more than twenty-five years ago, and she had worked as a reporter on three different papers when she took the job of editor of England's Birmingham Herald(伯明汉先驱报), a newspaper that had been experiencing financial difficulties for several years. Her success in raising the news reporting standards as well as making the Herald into a profitable business gained Callahan the attention and respect of the British news establishment. By the time she was 35, she had become a publisher and started CMA, which is now one of the largest media organizations in the world.

　　Callahan had never visited the United States before she came to Miami and became the publisher of the Miami Journal almost eight years ago, but she had been reading the newspaper for several years, and she said that she liked the paper's style. After she had owned the Journal for just over a year, she bought a small radio station in Georgia, and in the next five years she went on to acquire news organizations in several different parts of the country.

　　If CMA becomes the owner of NBS, for the first time it will have control over a nationwide TV network. In an interview last week, Philip Rosen, the president of NBS, said that he was not very happy about the purchase. He agreed that Callahan and CMA had done a lot to help American newspapers become more financially secure, but he expressed fears that the new management was going to make news coverage on NBS irresponsible. He stated that he hoped he could remain with NBS but said that this might not be possible.

　　1.The writer thins that CMA's offer to buy the National Broadcasting System is probably _____.

　　[A] the only one

　　[B] a good one

　　[C] unacceptably low

　　[D] of great competition

　　3. Jessica Callahan has never _____.

　　[A] visited the United States

　　[B] owned a national TV network

　　[C] worked as an editor

　　[D] read the Miami Journal

　　4. The attitude of NBS top executive to the CMA takeover was that _____.

　　[A] he was opposed to the purchase

　　[B] he hoped the takeover would bot affect the system's fame

　　[C] he was afraid NBS would suffer serious financial loss

　　[D] he could not leave his present position

　　5. Which of the following can be the best title for this passage?

　　[A] Jessica Callahan---a Successful Woman

　　[C] CMA Buying NBS?

　　[D] CMA's Attractive Offer to NBS

　　参考答案：D C C B B

【第二篇】

When school officials in Kalkaska, Michigan, closed classes last week, the media flocked to the story, portraying the town's 2,305 students as victims of stingy (吝啬的) taxpayers. There is some truth to that; the property-tax rate here is one-third lower than the state average. But shutting their schools also allowed Kalkaska's educators and the state's largest teachers' union, the Michigan Education Association, to make a political point. Their aim was to spur passage of legislation Michigan lawmakers are debating to increase the state's share of school funding.

　　It was no coincidence that Kalkaska shut its schools two weeks after residents rejected a 28 percent property-tax increase. The school board argued that without the increase it lacked the $1.5 million needed to keep schools open.

　　But the school system had not done all it could to keep the schools open. Officials declined to borrow against next year's state aid, they refused to trim extracurricular activities and they did not consider seeking a smaller—perhaps more acceptable—tax increase. In fact, closing early is costing Kalkaska a significant amount, including $ 600,000 in unemployment payments to teachers and staff and $ 250,000 in lost state aid. In February, the school system promised teachers and staff two months of retirement payments in case schools closed early, a deal that will cost the district $ 275,000 more.

　　Other signs suggest school authorities were at least as eager to make a political statement as to keep schools open. The Michigan Education Association. hired a public relations firm to stage a rally marking the school closings, which attracted 14 local and national television stations and networks. The president of the National Education Association, the MEA's parent organization, flew from Washington, D. C, for the event. And the union tutored school officials in the art of television interviews. School supervisor Doyle Disbrow acknowledges the district could have kept schools open by cutting programs but denies the moves were politically motivated.

　　Michigan lawmakers have reacted angrily to the closings. The state Senate has already voted to put the system into receivership (破产管理) and reopen schools immediately; the Michigan House plans to consider the bill this week.

　　1. We learn from the passage that schools in Kalkaska, Michigan, are funded .

　　A. mainly by the state government

　　B. exclusively by the local government

　　C. by the National Education Association

　　D. by both the local and state governments

　　2. One of the purposes for which school officials closed classes was .

　　A. to draw the attention of local taxpayers to political issues

　　B. to avoid paying retirement benefits to teachers and staff

　　C. to pressure Michigan lawmakers into increasing state funds for local schools

　　D. to make the financial difficulties of their teachers and staff known to the public

　　3. The author seems to disapprove of .

　　A. the shutting of schools in Kalkaska

　　B. the involvement of the mass media

　　C. the Michigan lawmakers' endless debating

　　D. delaying the passage of the school funding legislation

　　4. We learn from the passage that school authorities in Kalkaska are more concerned about .

　　A. making a political issue of the closing of the schools

　　B. the attitude of the MEA's parent organization

　　C. a raise in the property-tax rate in Michigan

　　D. reopening the schools there immediately

　　5. According to the passage, the closing of the schools developed into a crisis because of .

　　A. the strong protest on the part of the students' parents

　　B. the political motives on the part of the educators

　　C. the weak response of the state officials

　　D. the complexity of the problem
