W: I often read two newspapers. Washington Post and The Sun. What about you?
M: I will buy the newspaper whose headlines catch my eyes in the front page. Do you buy the two newspapers everyday?
W: Yes, that way I’m sure not to miss my favorite sections. Doesn’t the size of the daily paper surprise you?
M: Yes, it certainly does. The newspaper staff — the reporters, writers, editors, and linotype operators — must be busy continuously. They need a large circulation to support such a staff, don’t they?
W: I’m sure they do. Of course, much of a newspaper’s income comes from advertisements.
M: That’s true. You try to read the whole paper, don’t you?
W: No. I just read the parts that interest me. I glance at the headlines, but I read the sports page and the business section carefully. Do you read those?
M: No, but I do read the editorials and the news section. You saw the article about the earthquake in Japan, didn’t you?
W: Yes. That was a terrible disaster. Do you think newspapers should print stories like that?
M: Certainly they should! They’re part of the news of the day and people want to know about them. Don’t you agree?
W: Yes, I suppose disasters are news, too. It seems to me that newspapers would be more pleasant to read if they had a large society section and more comic strips. Don’t you like to read articles about celebrations and happy events?
M: Yes, I enjoy reading them. But since you don’t like to read unhappy news, why do you subscribe to two newspapers? If I were you, I wouldn’t read a newspaper at all.

选项
A、They are not news.
B、They aren’t pleasant to read.
C、Most people don’t like to read about them.
D、They are difficult to understand.
答案
B
解析
选项中的They,not news,aren’t pleasant,difficult to understand等表明,本题可能考查某人不喜欢阅读某类新闻的原?因。对话中女士提到newspapers would be more pleasant to read if they had a large society section and more comic strips,根据男士提到的since you don’t like to read unhappy news可知,女士不喜欢灾难新闻是因为它们读起来不愉快,故答案为[B]。
