阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项中，选出最佳答案。

　　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 a newspaper has become a habit passed down from generation to generation.

　　The nature of what is news may change. What basically makes news is what affects our livesand 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) engineering. In the future, I think there will be more coverage of scientific explanations of why we feel as we doas 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(传送) electronically from the Fleet Street and printed out in our own home. In fact, I'm pretty sure that is how it will happen in 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 - say, sport and international news.

　　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 foresee that television would kill off newspapers, but that hasn't happened. What is read on the printed page lasts longer 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.

1．What is the best title for the passage?

[　　]

A．The Best Way to Get News

[　　]

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

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

3．What will probably be on in the newspaper made by yourself?

[　　]

A．Sports and international news.

B．A menu of all the news.

C．The most important news.

[　　]

B．newspapers will stay with us together with other media

C．television will take the place of newspaper

D．the writer believe some media will die out

　　You can’t buy happiness but it looks like you can at least inherit(遗传)it, British and Australian researchers said on Thursday．

　　A study of nearly 1000 pairs of identical and non-identical twins found genes control half the personality traits(特性)that make people happy while factors such as relationships, health and careers are responsible for the rest of our well-being．

　　“We found that around half the differences in happiness were genetic,”said Tim Bates, a researcher at the University of Edinburgh who led the study．“It is really quite surprising．”

　　The researchers asked the volunteers–ranging in age from 25 to 75-a series of questions about their personality, how much they worried and how satisfied they were with their lives．

　　Because identical twins share the same genes and fraternal twins(异卵双胞胎)do not, the researchers could identify common genes that result in certain personality traits and predispose people to happiness．

　　People who are sociable, active, stable, hardworking and conscientious tend to be happier, the researchers reported in the journal Psychological Science．

　　“What this study showed was that the identical twins in a family were very similar in personality and in well-being, and by contrast, the fraternal twins were only around half as similar,”Bates said．“That strongly implicates genes．”

　　The findings are an important piece of the puzzle for researchers trying to better understand depression and what makes different people happy or unhappy, Bates said．

　　People with positive inherited personality traits may, in effect, also have a reserve of happiness to draw on in stressful times, he said．

　　“An important implication is that personality traits of being outgoing, calm and reliable provide a resource, we called it ‘affective reserve,’ that drives future happiness”Bates said．

(1)

Which of the following is NOT true according to the study?
[　　]
A．	Identical twins tend to be happier than fraternal twins．
B．	About half the differences in happiness can be inherited．
C．	Relationships, health and careers can affect one’s happiness．
D．	Genes control half the personality traits affecting one’s happiness．

(2)

The purpose of paragraph 7 is to inform us that ________．
[　　]
A．	the fraternal twins’ happiness has nothing to do with genes
B．	the identical twins’ happiness has nothing to do with genes
C．	the difference between the identical twins and the fraternal twins
D．	genes play an important part in one’s personality and happiness

(4)

Bates thinks that ________．

B．	happiness reserve consists of positive personality traits
C．	people ought to reserve more positive personality traits
D．	people should have their character trained hard
