VII. 写作(Writing)

A) One possible version:

This is a classic chain letter. The idea that everyone who participates in a chain letter will make money is mathematically impossible. This chain letter asks you to send the letter on to 100 people. If everyone who received a letter sent it on to 100 people, by the fifth mailing, ten billion people would receive the letter. That's more than the population of the world! The very first investors in the chain might receive money, but later investors rarely get back their original investment.

B) The first possible version:

In the 21st century, advances in technology such as the Internet, satellite and cable TV, and cell phones now

allow the public to get news 24 hours a day on demand, or whenever they want it. The Internet offers summaries of the news almost every time people go on-line. There are also many websites that make it easy to follow news events from the beginning to the end. All you have to do is type what interests you, and the story you want comes on the screen, along with links to related stories. Some people connect the radio station websites via the Internet, where they can listen to 24-hour news radio or hear discussions about the news on talk radio.

In order to compete with the Internet, some newspapers are changing the way they deliver the news. Yet most people question the truth of the news.

It will be interesting to see which type of source—high tech or traditional—wins the competition in the future.

The second possible version:

In the 21st century, people don't have to wait for a newspaper delivery or a TV news programme. By using technology, they can get the news any time of the day or night. However, most people used to read the morning newspapers and turn on radios or TVs in order to follow every single piece of news about this world. For a long time, people got their news the same way—they watch television, listen to the radio, or read the newspaper.

In order to compete with the Internet, some newspapers and TV stations are changing the way they deliver the news. Instead of reporting the news objectively, basing their stories on facts, they try to keep their readers' and viewers' interest by focusing on the most upsetting or shocking details of a story.

Different people have different tastes. They need a variety of news sources—high tech or traditional—to choose from.
