(A) Fill in each blank with a proper word with the help of the first letter.

Wood-block printing was invented sometime between the 4th and the 7th c 56        in Chi¬na. The earliest book that we have was p 57     in 868 and was found in a Dunhuang cave. Wood-block printing took a long time because a new block was needed for every p 58       in z book. By the 1 Ith century printed books could be f 59        all over China. They included books of Confucius' thoughts, dictionaries, and books on maths. In 1340, books could be printed u-sing two c 60       , black and red.

A 61       the Chinese learnt about printing so early, printing was not introduced in other parts of the world for hundreds of years. It is thought that when the great Italian traveler Marco Polo visited China in the 13th century, he s 62       printed books. It is possible that Marco Po¬lo brought that k 63       to Europe. But printed books did not come to Europe u 64        1450 when a German called Johann Gutenberg i 65       a printing machine. Twenty-four years later, in 1474, an Englishman called William Caxton printed the first printed book in English. His second book was about the game of chess. Caxton printed about a hundred books, and some can still be found today in museums.

(B) Answer the questions according to the following passage.

It is widely accepted that television is playing an important part in people's lives. But, there is a heated discussion as to whether television does good or harm.

Television keeps one learning more about present events, allows one to follow the most re¬cent developments in politics and science, and offers various programs which are .both instructive and exciting. The most distant countries, the strangest customs and the most attractive scenes of nature are brought right into one's room or house.

However, some people insist that television is bad rather than good. They argue that it has brought about many serious problems. The major one is its effects on young people. Children are now so used to getting their information and entertainment from television that their ability to read and write as well as physical ability has been greatly weakened. Even worse than that, vulgar( 庸俗的) advertisements and poor programs may develop their bad tastes, shape their view points badly towards human life to such a degree that their minds might be destroyed.

In a word, television has both advantages and disadvantages. Whatever effects it has, one point is certain, television in itself is neither good nor bad. It is the use to which it is put that decides its value to society.
