They give students an outlet (出口) for emotion. “I use micro blogs to record my life. I let everyone ‘see’ my feelings and complaints (抱怨),” said Liu Fangyue, 14, from Xiamen No. 1 Middle School.

“Micro blogs widen students’ perspectives (观点), but there are rules to follow,” said Shi Zhongying, a professor from Beijing Normal University. He shares some of them with micro bloggers.

“Manage your time, and don’t let micro-blogging affect your studies and health,” said Shi. “Don’t give out your name, family address or phone number on micro blogs. You should also respect (尊重) truth and other people’s privacy (隐私).”

B. The newspaper would attract more readers. C. Many readers won’t buy the newspaper any more.

D. The reporter won’t be able to write for the newspaper again.

( )42. Why would it be wrong for a newspaper to say that Yang Liwei was the first man to go into space?

A. Because the information was not fresh.

B. Because the information was not correct. C. Because the information was not relevant. D. Because the information was not useful.

I’m writing to report a robbery to you. At about nine last night, I was on the way back home from the cinema when suddenly I heard someone crying for help from behind. I turned around and found a tall man with a pair of dark glasses and a short man robbing a young woman at the street corner near the cinema. The woman wore a gold necklace and a gold watch. She put up a good fight with them. I ran towards them but when I arrived, the two robbers had ridden their bikes away. They robbed the woman of her gold watch, but luckily, the woman wasn’t hurt.

I hope the information will help you catch the robbers.

Yours faithfully Li Hua
