请阅读Passage 1。完成第21~25小题。
Passage 1
There will eventually come a day when The New York Times ceases to publish stories on newsprint. Exactly when that day will be is a matter of debate. "Sometime in the future," the paper's publisher said back in 2010.
Nostalgia for ink on paper and the rustle of pages aside, there' s plenty of incentive to ditch print. The infrastructure required to make a physical newspaper--printing presses, delivery trucks--isn't just expensive; it's excessive at a time when online-only competitors don't have the same set of financial constraints. Readers are migrating away from print anyway. And though print and sales still dwarf their online and mobile counterparts, revenue from print is still declining.
Overhead may be high and circulation lower, but rushing to eliminate its print edition would be a mistake, says BuzzFeed CEO Jonah Peretti.
Peretti says the Times shouldn't waste time getting out of the print business, but only if they go about doing it the right way. "Figuring out a way to accelerate that transition would make sense for them," he said, "but if you discontinue it, you're going to have your most loyal customers really upset with you."
Sometimes that's worth making a change anyway. Peretti gives the example of Netflix discontinuing its DVD-mailing service to focus on streaming. "It was seen as a blunder," he said.
The more turned out to be foresighted. And ifPeretti were in change at the Times? "I wouldn't pick a year to end print," he said. "I would raise prices and make it into more of a legacy product."
The most loyal customers would still get the product they favor, the idea goes, and they'd feel like they were helping sustain the quality of something they believe in. "So if you're overpaying for print, you could feel like you were helping," Peretti said. "Then increase it at a higher rate each year and essentially try to generate additional revenue." In other words, if you're going to make a print product, make it for the people who are already obsessed with it. Which may be what the Times is doing already. Getting the print edition seven days a week costs nearly $ 500 a year--more than twice as much as a digital-only subscription.
"It's a really hard thing to do and it's a tremendous luxury that BuzzFeed doesn't have a legacy business," Peretti remarked. "But we're going to have questions like that where we have things we're doing that don't make sense when the market changes and the world changes. In those situations, it' s better to be more aggressive than less aggressive."
21. The New York Times is considering ending its print edition partly due to__________.
A. the high cost of operation
B. the pressure from its investors
C. the complaints from its readers
D. the increasing online ad sales
22. Peretti suggests that, in face of the present situation, the Times should__________.
A. seek new sources of readership
B. end the print edition for good
C. aim for efficient management
D. make strategic adjustments
23. It can be inferred from Paragraphs 5 and 6 that a "legacy product"__________.
A. helps restore the glory of former times
B. is meant for the most loyal customers
C. will have the cost of printing reduced
D. expands the popularity of the paper
24. Peretti believes that, in a changing world,__________.
A. legacy businesses are becoming outdated
B. cautiousness facilitates problems-solving
C. aggressiveness better meets challenges
D. traditional luxuries can stay unaffected
25. Which of the following would be the best title of the text?
A. Shift to Online Newspaper .All at Once
B. Cherish the Newspaper Still in Your Hand
C. Make Your Print Newspaper a Luxury Good
D. Keep Your Newspaper Forever in Fashion
请阅读Passage 2,完成第26—30小题。
Passage 2
Consumers are being confused and misled by the hodge-podge (大杂烩) of environmental claims made by household products, according to a "green labeling" study published by Consumers International Friday.
Among the report's more outrageous (令人无法容忍的) findings, a German fertilizer described itself as "earthworm friendly" a brand of flour said it was "non-polluting" and a British toilet paper claimed to be "environmentally friendlier".
The study was written and researched by Britain's National Consumer Council (NCC) for lobby group Consumer International.It was funded by the German and Dutch governments and the European Commission.
"While many good and useful claims are being made, it is clear there is a long way to go in ensuring shoppers are adequately informed about the environmental impact of products they buy,"said Consumers International director Anna Fielder.
The 10-country study surveyed product packaging in Britain.Western Europe, Scandinavia and the United States.It found that products sold in Germany and the United Kingdom made the most environmental claims on average.
The report focused on claims made by specific products, such as detergent (洗涤剂 ) insect sprays and by some garden products.It did not test the claims, but compared them to labeling guidelines set by the International Standards Organization (ISO) in September,1999.
Researchers documented claims of environmental friendliness made by about 2,000 products and found many too vague or too misleading to meet ISO standards.
"Many products had specially-designed labels to make them seem environmentally friendly, but in fact many of these symbols mean nothing," said report researcher Philip Page.
"Laundry detergents made the most number of claims with 158.Household cleaners were second with 145 separate claims, while paints were third on our list with 73.The high numbers show how very confusing it must be for consumers to sort the true from the misleading." he said.
T he ISO labeling standards ban vague or misleading claims on product packaging, because terms such as "environmentally friendly" and "non-polluting" cannot be verified."What we are now pushing for is to have multinational corporations meet the standards set by the ISO." said Page.
26.According to the passage, the NCC found it outrageous that __________.
A.all the products surveyed claim to meet ISO standards
B.the claims made by products are often unclear or deceiving
C.consumers would believe many of the manufactures' claims
D.few products actually prove to be environment friendly
27.As indicated in this passage, with so many good claims, the consumers __________.
A.are becoming more cautious about the products they are going to buy
B.are still not willing to pay more for products with green labeling
C.are becoming more aware of the effects different products have on the environment
D.still do not know the exact impact of different products on the environment
28.A study was carried out by Britain' s NCC to __________.
A.find out how many claims made by products fail to meet environmental standards
B.inform the consumers of the environmental impact of the products they buy
C.examine claims made by products against ISO standards
D.revise the guidelines set by the International Standards Organization
29.What is one of the consequences caused by the many claims of household products?
A.They are likely to lead to serious environmental problems.
B.Consumers find it difficult to tell the true from the false.
C.They could arouse widespread anger among consumer.
D.Consumers will be tempted to buy products they don' t need.
30.It can be inferred from the passage that the lobby group Consumer International wants to __________.
A.make product labeling satisfy ISO requirements
B.see all household products meet environmental standards
C.warn consumers of the danger of so-called green products
D.verify the efforts of non-polluting products
