One of the most popular dailies in the United States is The New York Times.Every night,the paper gets printed at 26 plants across the country.College Point,built in 1997,is the biggest among them.It prints 1.7 million copies of The New York Times every week.

Finished newspaper pages are sent digitally from the newsroom to the plant.They are then b'ed(刻)with lasers onto thin alumimm(铝制的)sheets called plates..There are seven printing presses at College Point.Each of them is several stories tall During a print run,they can print as many as 80,000 newspapers per hour.Pressmen would carefully adjust the presses before they place the plates on the machines.Electricians and machinists are also on hand during this setup to solve any problems that may occur.The noise of the running presses is awful.Each press is shut down for one shif(轮班)each week.Press staff will then climb inside to mcintain(保养)the machine's key parts. Sometimes,news breaks during a press run.If it's important enough,the newsroom will call to"Stop the presses!"Often,the copies that have already been printed won't be thrown away, but the rest of the night's run will be based on the updated version. Usually,all print runs of The New York Times are completed by 3 a.m.Maintenance and electrical teams will then make preparations for the next shift.The plant is so large that they have to ride bicycles in order to get around! 34.What is the main idea of the article? 试卷第4页，共9页 A.How The New York Times is edited.
