阅读以下内容。左栏是五个人的旅游兴趣和设想，右栏是五则旅游广告。请将这五个人与他们感兴趣的广告配对。
1.Jenny likes history and she wants to know something about the clothes that ancient people wore and watch an old dance.
2.David is interested in animals, especially African animals. He wants to see some lions living in the wild with his friends this vacation.

4.Jack is interested in science and he hopes very much to know what our life will be like in the future.
5.Jerry is studying geography at a college and she wants to visit some great wonders of the natural world. | A．The Underwater World Here you will find different kinds of fish and even some kinds of sharks. You will feel that you are in the water, but of course this isn’t true. If you are interested in fish, I suggest that you pay a visit here. B．The Ancient village In the village, you will find people live a simple life just as the ancient people did. They wear ancient clothes and are selling the old things and food. You can even watch an old dance performed by some actors and actresses. C．The Future Town This exhibition shows how progress will touch our life in the future. It allows us to look into the future and explore (探索) the cities of the next century and the ways we will live then. Spend some time in our space station and climb into our simulator for the journey to Mars! D．The Safari Park In the park you can drive among African animals in one of our Range Cruisers: see lions, giraffes, elephants in the wild. Move on to watch the monkeys. And then there are still the bird houses to see. E．The grand Canyon (大峡谷) It lies in the United States. It is the greatest wonder of the natural world and attracts a lot of tourists all over the world. |
Hundreds of years ago, news was carried from place to place by people on foot or by horse. It took days, weeks and sometimes months for people to receive news. Now it is possible to send words and pictures around the world in seconds. Billions of people learn about news stories of their motherland and over the world every day, either by watching TV or by reading newspapers.
Many countries have hundreds of different newspapers since the 18th century. From then on, newspapers have been an important part of everyday life. How do newspaper editors decide which news stories to print (印刷)? Why do they print some stories but not others?
Firstly, it is important to report news stories. TV stations can report news much faster than newspapers. Yet, newspapers give more about the same stories. They may also look for stories in another way, or they may print completely different stories to those on TV.
Secondly, a news story has to be interesting and unusual. People don’t want to read stories about everyday life. As a result, many stories are about some kinds of danger and seem to be “bad” news. For example, newspapers never print stories about planes landing safely, instead, they print stories about plane accidents.
Another factor(因素) is also very important in many news stories. Many people are interested in news from foreign countries, but more prefer to read stories about people, places and events in their own countries. So the stories on the front page in Chinese newspapers are usually very different from the ones in British, French and American newspapers.
