      Sometime in the future, the familiar early-morning newspaper on the front
      porch（门廊） will disappear. And instead of  __1__  your newspaper, it will
      read to you. You’ll get up and turn on the computer newspaper just like
      switching on the TV. An electronic  __2__  will distribute（发送） stories
      about the  latest events, guided by a program that selects the type of  
      __3__  you want. You will even get to choose the kind of voice you want to
      hear. Want  __4__  information on the brief story? A simple touch makes
      the entire text appear. Save it in your own personal  __5__  if you like.
      These are among the predictions from communications experts working  on
      the newspapers of the future. Pictured as part of broader home-based media
      and entertainment systems, computer  __6__  would unite print and
      broadcast reporting, offering news and analysis with video images of news
      events.
      Most of the  __7__  is available now, but convincing more people that they
      don’t need paper to read a newspaper is the next step. But
      resistance（反对）to computer newspapers may be stronger from within
      journalism. Since it is such a cultural  __8__ , it may be that present
      generation of journalists and publishers will have to die off  before the
      next generation realizes that the newspaper industry is  __9__  a
      newspaper industry. Technology is making the  end of traditional
      newspapers unavoidable.
      Despite technology advances, it could take decades to  __10__  newsprint
      with computer screens. It might take 30 to 40 years to  complete the
      changeover because people need to buy computers and because newspapers
      have established financial interests in the paper industry.

      1、
      I will always remember my mother’s last few days in this world. On
      February 14th, 2000, my class went on a field trip to the beach. I had so
      much fun. When we returned to school, my teacher told me to go to the
      headmaster’s office. When I got into the office, I saw a police officer.
      Suddenly I realized something was wrong. The police officer told me what
      had happened and we went to pick my sister up. After that, we went to the
      hospital and waited. Time went slowly. Finally, we got to see our mother.
      It was terrible. On the next day, the headmaster came and told my two
      teachers what had happened. I was taking a rest that day. I knew it had
      something to do with my mother. I kept thinking that she either died or
      had gotten better. How I wished that she had gotten better. When my
      teacher took me outside, my sister ran up to me. She started crying,
      “She’s gone. Teresa, mommy’s gone. She’s dead.” I couldn’t believe it. We
      jumped into the car and drove straight to the hospital. Most of my family
      were there. The silence was terrible. I knew I had to say goodbye.
      Today when I look back, I still miss my mother very much, but I know that
      I will live. My mother was a strong mother, who had the biggest heart. My
      mother was an angel walking on the earth. I will always remember her as
      living. When someone is asked who their hero (英雄) is, they usually say
      someone famous, like Michael Jordan or Britney Spears. When someone asks
      me who my hero is, I tell them, my mother. My mother lives every day. That
      is what makes her a true hero.

            Mr Mike was a young man. He was not very rich. One day he went into
      a watch shop to buy a nice-looking watch for his girl friend, Rose. He
      fixed his eyes on a nice golden watch, and decided to buy it. The shop
      assistant took the watch out, and asked for three hundred pounds for it.
      Just then, a boy of about fifteen suddenly rushed over and grasped the
      watch from the assistant'''';s hand. The assistant hurried out to catch
      the boy. But it was too late, the boy had disappeared among the street
      people very quickly.
          On the way home, Mike met the boy, who would sell him the gold watch
      for only one hundred pounds. "The boy didn'''';t know that I saw him
      stealing the watch from the shop. And he asked for much less money than
      that in the shop." Mike thought to himself. So he paid the boy and took
      the watch home.
          The next day, Mike gave the golden watch to Rose, and told her all
      about the watch. Rose looked at the watch for a while, then, laughed
      loudly, "You are really a fool!" she said, "This watch isn'''';t worth 100
