Because they receive the majority of their profits (利润) from ads and subscriptions, some of the most famous newspapers have found they don't have enough money.As a result, The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, and USA Today have all experienced major losses, with each of the papers cutting anywhere from 20 to 100 newsroom jobs within the past five months.Often some of the most experienced reporters are the first to be laid off because they have the highest salaries.From 2006 to 2012, the number of working journalists in the United States decreased by 17，000, according to the Pew Research Center. News organizations have repeatedly said that the future of journalism is bleak．This is caused by the continual simplification of stories in order to interest a population who have difficulty staying focused. But in reality, the demand for in­depth reporting remains the same.The only change is that innovation (创新) is the key for newspapers to remain relevant in today's technological world.Though different audiences may have different preferences, the demand for in­depth reporting remains the same. Times are changing and newspapers must quickly realize that the methods they used in the past may be useless today.Innovation in the news industry will involve changing not only the traditional journalism model, but also its business, technology, and marketing sectors.In the upcoming years, a willingness to try new methods will likely be the thing that decides whether a newspaper survives or not. 1．How are some famous newspapers today? A．They are short of money. B．They are failing to meet readers' needs. C．They are getting more and more money from ads. D．They are all increasing their newsroom job numbers. 2．What does the underlined word “bleak” in Paragraph 3 mean? A．Encouraging. B．Unexpected. C．Different. D．Hopeless. 3．What is unchangeable for print? A．The way to make money. B．The attraction of short stories. C．People's need for in­depth reporting. D．People's wish to get information from ads. 4．The main purpose of the text is to ． A．discuss the future of print B．introduce some famous newspapers C．report some recent events D．show the latest findings of a study Ⅱ. 完形填空 One day, our PE teacher required us to complete an obstacle course.The 1 team would be the one whose four team members completed the course in the shortest time.I looked at the five­foot wall we were 2 to complete and shook my head.

One of his friends had stopped to make a bicycle repair, but they had encouraged Mac to carry on, and they would catch up with him soon. As Mac pedaled (骑行) along alone, he thought fondly of his wife and two young daughters at home. He hoped to show them this beautiful place someday. Then Mac heard quick and loud breathing behind him. “Man, that's a big dog！” he thought. But when he looked to the side, he saw instantly that it wasn't a dog at all, but a wolf, quickly catching up with him. Mac's heart jumped. He found out his can of bear spray. With one hand on the bars, he fired the spray at the wolf. A bright red cloud enveloped the animal, and to Mac's relief, it fell back, shaking its head. But a minute later, it was by his side again. Then it attacked the back of Mac's bike, tearing open his tent bag. He fired at the wolf a second time, and again, it fell back only to quickly restart the chase (追赶). Mac was pedaling hard now. He waved and yelled at passing cars but was careful not to slow down. He saw a steep uphill climb before him. He knew that once he hit the hill, he'd be easily caught up and the wolf's teeth would be tearing into his flesh. At this moment, Paul and Becky were driving their car on their way to Alaska. They didn't think much of it when they saw two cyclists repairing their bike on the side of the road. A bit later, they spotted what they, too, assumed was a dog running alongside a man on a bike. As they got closer, they realized that the dog was a wolf. Mac heard a large vehicle behind him. He pulled in front of it as the wolf was catching up fast, just a dozen yards away now. 注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；2．请按如下格式作答。 The car abruptly stopped in front of him. A few minutes later, the other two cyclists arrived. ♣ 必修2第4单元同步练习3 【第1版】 ♣ ，第1页（共4页） 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ ♣ 必修2第4单元同步练习3【第1版】 ♣ 【答案】 必修2第4单元课时跟踪练3（第1版） Reading for Writing→【答案】 【Part 1基础知识巩固篇】 I. 品句填词 1．county；2．rolled；3．Cattle；4．eager；5．pub； 6．approach；7．beer；8．customs；9．feast；10．greeted； II. 词形转换 1．charged；2．to ensure；3．location；4．announcement； 5．approaching；6．to go；7．crowded；8．were dotted； III. 固定搭配和句式 1．is likely to lose the chance；2．(should) know； 3．whose influence on me；4．Thanks to your generous help； 5．with many students surrounding him；6．While climbing the mountain； 【Part 2素养能力提升篇】 Ⅰ. 阅读理解 语篇解读：本文是一篇议论文。文章讨论了在社交媒体快速发展的社会，传统的新闻行业应该如何生存。 1．解析：选A　细节理解题。根据第二段中的Because they receive the majority of their profits (利润) from ads and subscriptions, some of the most famous newspapers have found they don't have enough money.可知，一些著名的报纸正面临着资金短缺的状况。 2．解析：选D　词义猜测题。根据第二段中的As a result, The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, and USA Today have all experienced major losses ...according to the Pew Research Center.以及第三段中的This is caused by the continual simplification of stories in order to interest a population who have difficulty staying focused.可知，报纸的销量连年下滑，内容质量降低，人们看不到报纸的未来，由此可以推测，bleak意为“无希望的”，与D项的意思最为接近。 3．解析：选C　细节理解题。根据第四段中的But in reality, the demand for in­depth reporting remains the same.以及Though different audiences may have different preferences, the demand for in­depth reporting remains the same.可知，人们虽然有各种各样的喜好，但是对于深度阅读的需求一直未变。 4．解析：选A　写作目的题。文章讨论了当前传统新闻行业所面临的困难，进而提出传统的新闻行业要走出困境就要敢于创新，不断尝试新的方法。由此可知，作者写这篇文章主要是讨论传统新闻行业的未来。 Ⅱ. 完形填空 语篇解读：本文是一篇记叙文。作者讲述了自己从消极应对困难到积极主动克服困难的过程。 1．解析：选C　根据一般比赛规则可知，获胜(winning)队应该是整体所用时间最短的队。 2．解析：选B　根据上句可知，跨越那些障碍是体育老师布置的任务，是我们被要求(supposed)做的事。 3．解析：选D　“我”的队友全部轻松完成任务后，轮到(turn)“我”了。 4．解析：选B　根据I would never get over it可知，“我”告诉队友自己不可能(impossible)越过那道五英尺的墙。 5．解析：选A　根据was后的内容可知，那是队友们对“我”懦弱表现的回应(response)。 6．解析：选D　“我”让队友们失望(letting my teammates down)，感觉很糟糕，但也无奈。 7．解析：选C　“我”自以为Roland一定也越不过那道墙，他一定也会放弃(given up)，所以拿这个来自我安慰(comforted)。 8．解析：选B　参见上题解析。 9．解析：选A　根据前文“我”的预想可知，“我”看到Roland他们在庆祝(celebrating)取得第一时，一定很震惊(shocked)。 10．解析：选C　参见上题解析。 11．解析：选D　Roland是全校最胖的，体重是“我”的两倍，这是“我”对Roland顺利完成障碍赛感到意外和不解的原因，故选D。 12．解析：选A　根据he could do it可知，他是在给自己鼓劲，使自己充满信心，故选A。 13．解析：选A　根据语境可知，“我”重返赛场又尝试(tried)一次。 14．解析：选C　根据I landed on the other side of that five­foot wall可知，“我”成功地越过了那道墙，所以有了成就(achievement)感。 15．解析：选B　此处指“我”从此变成一个积极的(positive)应对困难的人。 Ⅲ. 读后续写 →参考范文： The car abruptly stopped in front of him.Paul and Becky got out of the car immediately to give help.But with the bare hands, they didn't dare to fight with the wolf.However, they still approached the wolf bravely.At the same time, the wolf also noticed them and turned its head back, shouting loudly at Paul and Becky.Mac then jumped off the bicycle and was ready to fight against the wolf.
