My younger friends rarely read the print media these days.They want their news either onscreen or in a cool,small package they can take anywhere and read at any time.The iPad and other similar gadgets(小玩意儿) will change our lives,I’m told.Even ebook readers,after a bad start,appear to be back on track because of the iPad.
They insist we’re now in the twilight(衰退期) of the newspaper business and the iPad may help to end it.Such a future is not something I like.Sure,there’s the Internet but it’s just not the same.
So here’s a little exercise for those who don’t want to read the newspapers any more.Buy one,find a quiet corner at home and spare an hour without distractions.Turn off your mobile phone,TV and PC,and lock up your wife,kids and pets.Start reading,from the first page to the last,and all the different sections and advertisements.When you reach the last page,you would have an experience that modern gadgets cannot offer.
19.According to the text,the author looks lost when ________.
A.he smells printing ink and breakfast
B.his father asked him to read newspapers
C.he hasn’t searched the Internet in the morning
D.the newspaper doesn’t come on time
20.The underlined part “the routine” in Paragraph 3 refers to “________”.
A.reading the newspaper
