分析 主要介绍里英国BBC广播公司的情况，如员工数量，每年的预算，收看人数等等．

解答 DABA
25．D 细节理解题．在第一段的第一句话Many people think that the BBC news programs are better than those on other channels 可知，BBC节目比其他新闻节目更容易理解．
26．A考查细节题．在文章第二段提到It has the world's largest network of foreign correspondents BBC有着全世界最大的记者网络．文章提到The BBC now uses special cameras 并没有说它是唯一一个使用special cameras 所以B错误；More than 1，700 people work for the BBC news service超过1700个人为bbc服务，但也没有说是世界上最多的，所以C错误；同样D也没有告诉我们是世界上预算最多的．
 27．B数字推理题．在第二段最后一句In the UK，about 19 million people-almost 35% of the total population watch the BBC television news programs every day．大约有1900百万的人观看节目，占据35%，所以人口大约为54 million．
28．A主旨大意题．根据全文的内容可知，主要介绍了英国BBC广播公司的情况，如员工数量，每年的预算，收看人数等等，所以标题为The BBC News Service．
