The first newspapers were written by hand and put up on walls in public place. The earliest daily newspaper was started in Rome in 59 BC. In the 700's the world's first printed newspaper was published. Europe didn't have a regularly published newspaper until 1609, when one was started in Germany.

The first regularly published newspaper in the English language was printed in Amsterdam in 1620. In 1621, an English newspaper was started in London and was published once a week. The first daily English newspaper was the Daily Courant (每日新闻). It came out in March 1702.

In 1690, Benjamin Harris printed the first American newspaper in Boston. But not long after it was first published, the government stopped the paper. In 1704, John Campbell started The Boston Newsletter (波斯顿新闻通讯), the first newspaper published in the American colonies. By 1760, the colonies had more than thirty daily newspapers. There are now about 1,800 daily papers in the United States.

Today, as a group, English language newspapers have the largest circulation (发行量) in the world. But the largest circulation for a newspaper is that of the Japanese newspaper Asahi Dhimbun (朝日新闻). It sells more than eleven million copies every day.

When I was a boy, I belonged to the Boy Scouts（童子军），so I used to go camping every summer, and once something happened which I have never been able to explain.

We were camping in a place above a river. After arriving, we all rushed down to the river had a swim. Standing by the river, we noticed that it was surrounded（环绕）by cliffs （悬崖）.If someone wanted to reach the river at this point, he had to walk past our camp.

Several days later, the scoutmaster had to he away for a day. That afternoon, we had supper early. We were sitting round the fire, eating and talking, when a man walked past and went down towards the river. We all felt that this man looked very strange, but, because each of us was afraid of looking very stupid, no one said anything.

We ate rather slowly, taking as long as possible. After finishing, we collected our plates together so that we could take them to the river where we always washed them. But no one moved towards the river— we stood looking at each other ashamed. Then all shouting at once, we began talking about the man who had walked past us. We aGREed how strange he looked and we wondered what he could be doing by the river. We knew that he could only return by passing through our camp.

An hour passed. Then one of the boys suggested we should creep（悄悄移动）down by the river so that we could see what the man was doing. Moving very slowly and keeping in the shadow, we crept down towards the bank. One boy climbed a tree so that he could see everything clearly. He called to us that there was no one there, so we ran down to the bank, looking every-where carefully. We could not understand where the man had gone.

When it got dark, we went back to our camp feeling bewildered. We told the scoutmaster what had happened in the evening. Smiling, he doubted that we had seen the man, but finally suggested we go and look again. We did, but there was no one there.

Many years have passed, but I still remember it as if it were yesterday. What did we see? I do not know.

60．The writer in the text mainly tells us _________.
A．the story of his childhood B．a strange camping experience
C．about a stranger by the river D．about a good place for camping.
61．Why did the boys eat their supper slowly?

I'm seventeen. I had worked as a box boy at a supermarket in Los Angeles. People came to the counter and you put things in their bags for them. And carried things to their cars. It was hard work.
While working, you wear a plate with your name on it. I once met someone I knew years ago. I remembered his name and said,Mr Castle, how are you?We talked about this and that. As he left, he said,I t was nice talking to you, Brett.I felt GREat, he remembered me. Then I looked down at my name plate. Oh no. He didn't remember me at all, he just read the name plate. I wish I had putIrvingdown on my name plate. If he'd have said,Oh yes, Irving, how could I forget you?I'd have been ready for him. There's nothing personal here.

The manager and everyone else who were a step above the box boys often shouted orders. One of these was：you couldn't accept tips（小费）.Okay, I'm outside and I put the bags in the car. For a lot of people, the natural reaction（反应）is to take a quarter and give it me. I'd say,I'm sorry, I can'tThey'd get angry. When you give someone a tip, you're sort of being polite. You take a quarter and you put it in their hand and you expect them to say,Oh, thanks a lot.When you say,I'm sorry, I can'tthey feel a little put down. They say,No one will know.And they put it in your pocket. You say,I really can'tIt gets to a point where you almost have to hurt a person physically（身体上）to prevent him from tipping you. It was not in aGREement with the story's belief in being friendly. Accepting tips was a friendly thing and made the customer feel good. I just couldn't understand the strangeness of some people's ideas. One lady actually put it in my pocket, got in the car, and drove away. I would have had to throw the quarter at her or eaten it or something.

I had decided that one year was enough. Some people needed the job to stay alive and fed. I guess I had the means and could afford to hate it and give it up.

64．What can be the best title for this text?
A．How Hard Life is for Box Boys B．Getting along with Customers
C．Why I Gave up My Job D．The Art of Taking Tips
65．Form the second paragraph, we can infer that________.
A．the writer didn't like the impersonal part of his job
B．with a name plate, people can easily start talking
C．Mr Castle mistook Irving for Brett
D．Irving was the writer's real name
66．The box boy refused to accept tips because_______.
A．customers only gave small tips
B．some customers had strange ideas about tipping
C．the store forbade the box boys to take tips
D．he didn't want to fight with the customers
67．The underlined phraseput downin the third paragraph probably means_______.
A．misunderstood B．defeated C．hateful D．hurt

D
During World War II, Polish pilots in GREat Britain were famous for showing off their flying skills.

I gave it full speed, but the plane leaned onto its left wing, and I was off the runway. In despair, I cut all power and used full right brake (制动闸). The plane turned 180 deGREes back onto the landing trip, tail first. The firm P51 was not damaged. Did you see that plane? a visiting air official said breathlessly.
