"If there is one thing I’m sure about, it is that in a
hundred years from now we will still be reading newspapers. It is not that
newspapers are a necessity. Even now some people get most of their news from
television or radio. Many buy a paper only on Saturday or Sunday. But for most
people reading a newspaper has become a habit passed down from generation to
generation. The nature of what is news may change. What
basically makes news is what affects our lives-the big political stories, the
coverage of the wars, earthquakes and other disasters, will continue much the
same. I think there will be more coverage of scientific research, though. It’s
already happening in areas that may directly affect our lives, like genetic (基因)
engineering. In the future, I think there will be more coverage of scientific
explanations of why we feel as we do-as we develop a better understanding of how
the brain operates and what our feelings really are. It’s quite
possible that in the next century newspapers will be transmitted (传送)
electronically from Fleet Street and printed out in our own home. In fact, I’m
pretty sure that how it will happen in the future. You will probably be able to
choose from a menu, making up your own newspaper by picking out the things you
want to read-sports and international news, etc. I think
people have got it wrong when they talk about competition between the different
media (媒体). They actually feed off each other. Some people once foresaw that
television would kill off newspapers, but that hasn’t happened. What is read on
the printed page lasts longer than pictures on a screen or sound lost in the
air. And as for the Internet, it’s never really pleasant to read something just
on a screen.What is the best title for the passage
