A good modern newspaper is an extraordinary piece of reading. It is remarkable first for what it contains the range of news from local crime to international politics, from sports to business to fashion to science, and the range of comment and special features (特定) as well, from editorial page to feature articles and interviews to criticism of books, art, theatre and music. A newspaper is even more remarkable for the way one reads it never completely, never straight through, but always by jumping from here to there, in and out glancing at one piece, reading another article all the way through, reading just a few paragraphs of the next.
A good modern newspaper offers a variety to attract many different readers, but far more than any one reader is interested in. What brings this variety together in one place is its topicality (时事性), its immediate relation to what is happening in your world and your locality now. But immediacy and the speed of production that goes with it mean also that much of what appears in a newspaper has no more than transient (短暂的) value.
For all these reasons, no two people really read the same paper: what each person does is to put together out of the pages of that day’s paper, his own selection and sequence, his own news paper. For all these reasons, reading newspapers efficiently, which means getting what you want from them without missing things you need but without wasting time, demands skill and self-awareness as you modify and apply the techniques of reading.
According to the passage, the reason why no two people really read the same newspaper is that ______.
A. people scan for the news they are interested in
B. different people prefer different newspapers
C. people are rarely interested in the same kind of news
D. people have different views about what a good newspaper is
参考答案：A
解析：本题是细节题。文中倒数第二句“For all these reason, no two people really read the same paper: what each person does is to put together out of the pages of that day’s paper, his own selection and sequence, his own newspaper.”认为没有两个读者真正阅读了“相同的”报纸，是因为：每个人所做的都是从当天的报纸中按他自己的选择和顺序把他自己想看的内容放在一起，也就是说人们看报是看他们自己感兴趣的内容。所以A选项是正确答案。B选项“不同的人喜欢不同的报纸”和文中所说的“在当天的报纸中找到他感兴趣的部分”不是一回事。而C选项“人们很少对同一种新闻感兴趣”也不对，作者隐含的意思是“人们所感兴趣的东西很少会完全一样”，而C选项并不是这个意思。D选项“至于什么是好的报纸，人们对此看法不一。”文中并没有谈到人们对报纸好坏的看法，而是指出由于人们不同的兴趣，所以每个人所读的报纸各不相同，所以D选项不符合题意。
