参考解析

解析:本题测试考生文章前两段内容的总结概括能力。第一段只有一句话,剔除枝节内容可以很快地判断出文章的中心:the most far-reaching has been the inexorable decline in the scope and seriousness of their arts coverage.第二段具体论证以前的报纸关于艺术评论数量很多,所以B项是正确的。A选项说法过于绝对,第一段中的“decline”,原文只是说“下降”,没有说“消失”(disappear)。C项“高质量的报纸未丧失大量的读者”,文中并未提到。D“年轻的读者怀疑报纸上的评论不合适”是强干扰项,原文marvel意思是“大为惊讶(常含赞叹之意)”,表明其实读者是赞同:这些评论可以在报纸上刊登的。这里的doubt表示怀疑,所以与marvel意思相反。【补充】考生阅读题干时,需要判断出前两段是一个整体,而且纵观十年真题,不难发现出现这样的提问方式时,都是第一段是论点,第二段是论据。

Text 2 Whatever happened to the death of newspaper?A year ago the end seemed near.The recession threatened to remove the advertising and readers that had not already fled to the Internet.Newspapers like the San Francisco Chronicle were chronicling their own doom.America's Federal Trade Commission launched a round of talks about how to save newspapers.Should they become charitable corporations?Should the state subsidize them?It will hold another meeting soon.But the discussions now seem out of date.In much of the world there is little sign of crisis.German and Brazilian papers have shrugged off the recession.Even American newspapers,which inhabit the most troubled corner of the global industry,have not only survived but often returned to profit.Not the 20%profit margins that were routine a few years ago,but profit all the same.It has not been much fun.Many papers stayed afloat by pushing journalists overboard.The American Society of News Editors reckons that 13,500 newsroom jobs have gone since 2007.Readers are paying more for slimmer products.Some papers even had the nerve to refuse delivery to distant suburbs.Yet these desperate measures have proved the right ones and,sadly for many journalists,they can be pushed further.Newspapers are becoming more balanced businesses,with a healthier mix of revenues from readers and advertisers.American papers have long been highly unusual in their reliance on ads.Fully 87%of their revenues came from advertising in 2008,according to the Organization for Economic Cooperation&Development(OECD).In Japan the proportion is 35%.Not surprisingly,Japanese newspapers are much more stable.The whirlwind that swept through newsrooms harmed everybody,but much of the damage has been concentrated in areas where newspapers are least distinctive.Car and film reviewers have gone.So have science and general business reporters.Foreign bureaus have been savagely cut off.Newspapers are less complete as a result.But completeness is no longer a virtue in the newspaper business.The most appropriate title for this text would be____A.American Newspapers:Struggling for SurvivalB.American Newspapers:Gone with the WindC.American Newspapers:A Thriving BusinessD.American Newspapers:A Hopeless Story
