  Dogs are wonderful companions, but there're some breeds(品种) more challenging to live with and to train. Some breeds are not the best choices for new trainers or owners.

  However, if you compare the numerous breeds which are more difficult to train,you'll find differences of opinion, probably based on individual experiences with individual dogs. It's im?portant to remember differences in individual dogs. If you're a novice owner or trainer,talk to a good breeder or trainer. You may need to adjust your choice of dog or adjust your training meth?od. Here,re a few other points to consider：

  High-energy dogs can be a training challenge, especially if they don't have sufficient op?portunity to burn off that energy before training sessions.

  Don't assume that a dog is dumb just because they're a challenge to train. If you find the

right method and if you're realistic in setting your training goals, most dogs will be more than willing to learn,although it may take some longer to learn than others. Listing a particular breed as being difficult to train may lead owners to assume that their dog can't be trained or that their dog is somehow less intelligent.

  Some breeds were bred to work independently，and may not be interested in a lot of inter?action with their owners.

  Other breeds are so highly tuned into their particular skill that at times it's very hard for them to focus on anything else.

  Dogs bred to be vocal―guard dogs，dachshunds or hunting hounds―will be more difficult to be taught that barking is unacceptable.

  Finally，any dog breed can be a challenge to train if you are attempting to train for some?thing other than what they were bred to do or that they are physically able to do. Pugs and Bull?dogs probably won't do well with scent(嗅觉) work―their noses and brains aren't wired that way. Working dogs need jobs to do or you will never train them to stop destroying the house if you leave them for hours at a time. Don't adopt a dog simply because you like the breed;mak?ing sure your dog won't be a challenge to live with and to train is as much about selecting the right breed and the right individual for you,your lifestyle and training abilities.

 "If there is one thing I'm sure about, it is that in a hundred years from now we will still be reading newspapers. It is not that newspapers are a necessity. Even now some people get most of their news from television or radio. Many buy a paper only on Saturday or Sunday. But for most people reading a newspaper has become a habit passed down from generation to genera?tion.

  The nature of what is news may change. What basically makes news is what affects our lives―the big political stories, the coverage of the wars,earthquakes and other disasters, will continue much the same. I think there will be more coverage of scientific research, though. It's already happening in areas that may directly affect our lives, like genetic(基因的) engineering. In the future，I think there will be more coverage of scientific explanations of why we feel as we do―as we develop a better understanding of how the brain operates and what our feelings really are.

  It's quite possible that in the next century newspapers will be transmitted electronically from Fleet Street and printed out in our own home. In fact,I'm pretty sure that it will happen in the future. You will probably be able to choose from a menu,making up your own newspaper by picking out the things you want to read―sport and international news,etc.

  I think people have got it wrong when they talk about competition between the different media(媒体) .They actually feed off each other. Some people once foresaw that television would kill off newspapers, but that hasn't happened. What is read on the printed page lasts lon?ger than pictures on a screen or sound lost in the air. And as for the Internet, it's never really pleasant to read something just on a screen.

   A.more big political affairs, wars and disasters will make news

   B.newspapers will not be printed in publishing houses any longer

   C.newspapers will cover more scientific research

   D.more and more people will watch TV

(   ) 2. From the passage, we can infer that        .

   A.newspapers will win the competition among the different media

   B.newspapers will stay with us together with other media

   C.television will take the place of the newspaper

   D.the writer believes some media will die out

(   ) 3. The phrase "feed off" in the last paragraph means "        _".

   A. depend on   B. compete with   C. fight with   D. kill off

(   ) 4. What is the best title for the passage?

    A. The Best Way to Get News.   B. The Changes of Media.

   C. Make Your Own newspaper.   D. The Future of Newspaper.
