【*】Britain has a large circulation(發(fā)行量) of the national newspapers. The daily Mirror and The Daily Express both sell
about 4 million copies each day. On average, every family will buy one newspaper in the morning, and take two or three on Sundas.
【*】Local newspapers are just as popular as the national ones in Britain. Local papers have a weekly circulation of 13 million. Nearly every town and country area has its own paper, and almost every local paper is financially holding its own. Many local newspapers are earning good profits.
【*】Local newspapers have their special characteristics. They mainly satisfy interest in local events-births, weddings,
deaths, council meetings, and sports. Editors often rely on a small staff of people who know the district well, Clubs and
churches in the neighborhood regularly supply these papers with much local news. Local news does not get out of date as
quickly as national news. If there is no room for it in this week's edition, a news item can be held over until the following
week.
【*】The editor of a local newspaper never forgets that the success of any newspaper depends on advertising. For this
reason, he is keen to keep the good will of local businessmen. If the newspaper sells well with carefully chosen news items

?to attract local readers, the businessmen will be grateful to the paper for the opportunity of keeping their products in the

public eye.

【*】Local newspapers seldom comment on problems of national importance, and editors rarely take sides on political
questions, But they can often provide service to the community in expressing public feeling on local issues, A newspaper
can sometimes persuade the council to take action to improve transport, provide better shopping facilities, and preserve local monuments and places of interest.

【*】New research from NASA scientists suggests emissions (釋放) of black soot alter the way sunlight reflects off snow.

According to a computer simulation(模擬), black soot may be responsible for 25 percent of observed global warming over

the past century.

【*】Soot in the higher latitudes(緯度) of the Earth, where ice is more common, absorbs more of the sun s energy and
warmth than an icy, white background. Dark-colored black carbon, or soot, absorbs sunlight, while lighter colored ice reflects sunlight

【*】Soot in areas with snow and ice may play an important role in climate change. Also, if snow and ice covered areas begin melting, the warming effect increases, as the soot becomes more concentrated on the snow surface. This provides a positive feedback, as glaciers and ice sheet smelt, they tend to get even dirtier,"said Dr.James Hansen, a researcher at NASA's

Goddard Institute for Space Studies, New York.

【*】Hansen found soot's effect on snow albedo(反照率)( solar energy reflected back to space), which may be contributing

to trends toward early springs in the Northern Hemisphere, such as thinning Arctic sea ice, melting glaciers and permafrost(永凍層). Soot also is believed to play a role in changes in the atmosphere above the oceans and land.

【*】"Black carbon reduces the amount of energy reflected by snow back into space, thus heating the snow surface more
than if there were no black carbon,"Hansen said. Soot's increased absorption of solar energy is especially effective in
warming the world’s climate."This forcing is unusually effective, causing twice as much global warming as a carbon-dioxide(二氧化碳) forcing of the same magnitude(量,大小),” Hansen noted.
【*】Hansen cautioned, although the role of soot in altering global climate is substantial, it does not alter the fact that greenhouse gases are the primary cause of climate warming during the past century. Such gases are expected to be the largest climate forcing for the rest of this century.
【*】The researchers found that observed warming in the Northern Hemisphere was large in the winter and spring at
middle and high latitudes. These observations were consistent with the researchers' elimate model simulations, which
showed some of the largest warming effects occurred when there were heavy snow cover and sufficient sunlight.
