university where he's studying law. The young man studies hard and hopes to be

a famous lawyer.

Last Monday their term was over. Robert said to his father on the telephone that he was going to travel

in a small country during his summer holiday. His father agreed to his plan and posted some money to

him.

So he started four days ago. Their plane landed on the only airport of the country safely. He took a

taxi and got to a hotel in the center of the capital. He felt hungry and tired.

So he had a dinner and

then a good sleep. This morning he was all right and was going to visit some places of interest. He met

an English visitor while he was having breakfast and the man told him to be careful of thieves.

Robert thanked the man and left. But he thought he was smart (机灵的) and strong and he decided to

have a try. He brought out a piece of paper and wrote on it, "A pig has stolen my wallet（钱包）!"

Then he put the note into his empty wallet. After that he put the wallet into

a pocket and set off.

He did all carefully and hoped to find out who would steal it.

"Everything went well," Robert thought to himself after he had returned to the hotel. He brought out his

4. Every day, the news of the world is relayed to people by over 300 million copies

of daily papers, over

400 million radio sets, and over 150 million television sets. Additional news is shown by motion pictures,

in theatres and cinemas all over the world. As more people learn what the important events of the day are,

fewer are still concerned exclusively with the events of their own household.

Donne put it, nearly four hundred years ago, “no man is an island.” This idea is more appropriate today

than it was when Donne lived. In short, wherever he lives, a man belongs to some society; and we are

becoming more and more aware that whatever happens in one particular society affects, somehow, the

life and destiny(命运) of all humanity.

Newspapers have been published in the modern world for about four hundred years.

Most of the

newspapers printed today are read in Europe and North America. However, soon they may be read in

all parts of the world, thanks to the new inventions that are changing the techniques of newspaper

publishing.

Electronics and automation(电子和自动化)have made it possible to produce

pictures and text far more

quickly than before. Therefore, the publishing of newspapers and magazines becomes more economical.

Furthermore, photo-copies can be sent over great distances now by means of television channels and

satellites such as Telstar. Thus, pictures can be brought to the public more quickly than previously.

1). People learn about what happens in the world through ____________.
