Last August there was a fire at the Seabreeze Hotel in Beldon. The next day, this news appeared on page two of the town's newspaper. The Beldon Post:
FIRE AT SEABREEZE
Late last night firemen hurried to the Seabreeze Hotel and quickly put out a small fire in a bedroom. The hotel manager said that a cigarette started the fire. We say again to all our visitors: "Please don't smoke cigarettes in bed." This was Beldon's first hotel fire for five years.
The Canfield Times gave the news in these words on page one:
ANOTHER BELDON HOTEL CATCHES FIRE
Last night Beldon firemen arrived just too late to save clothing, bedclothes and some furniture at the Seabreeze Hotel. An angry holiday-maker said, "An electric lamp probably started the fire. The bedroom lamps are very old at some of these hotels. When I put my bedside light on, I heard a funny noise from the lamp．" We are glad to tell our readers that this sort of adventure does not happen in Canfield.
What are the facts, then？ It is never easy to find out the exact truth about an accident. There was a fire at the Seabreeze Hotel last August: that is one fact. Do we know anything else？ Yes, we know that firemen went to the hotel.

听力原文：A(Female): Not everybody reads the daily newspaper. People who don't read newspaper are sometimes referred to as non-readers.
B(Male): Yes. I think I am one of those who are called non-readers. I read no newspaper, no books. I just like watching TV.

A: I know that is your excuse. People like you always say they don't have the time, they prefer radio or TV, they have no interest in reading a tale and besides they think newspapers are too expensive. I am sure you do not fit the type I mentioned. You are high in income and rather intellectual. You know newspaper editors are desperate to win you people back and they are working hard to make the newspaper's content and format more attractive to you.
B: Oh, I don't think so. Maybe I can try some thing new and see if they are improving. But you know, only when I am not so busy and my TV doesn't work any more.
