The American newspaper publisher Arthur Sulzberger Sr died at the age of 86.Mr Sulzberger led The New York Times for more than three decades,before passing the business to his son.He took over the paper in 1963 when it was in financial trouble,and transformed it into the heart of a multi?billion dollar media empire.

His family announced he had died at his home in Southampton,New York State,after a long illness.His son,Arthur Sulzberger Jr,said in a statement that his father,whom he referred to by his childhood nickname of Punch,was “one of our industry’s most admired executives”.“Punch,the old Marine captain who never backed down from a fight,was an absolutely fierce defender of the freedom of the press,” he said.

The New York Times was bought by Mr Sulzberger Sr’s grandfather Adolph Ochs in 1896.During Mr Sulzberger’s tenure,The New York Times won 31 Pulitzer prizes.

Born in New York City,5 February 1926,Sr served in Marine Corps during World War Ⅱ and Korean War,joined The New York Times in 1951 after graduating from Columbia College,took over as publisher in 1963 after his brother?in?law died suddenly,stepped down in 1997 and passed stewardship to his son,Arthur Sulzberger Jr.

He oversaw a huge circulation boost at the paper,and increased its parent company’s annual revenues (年收入) from $100m in 1963 to $1.7bn by the time he stepped down in 1997.He also led the paper through high?level clashes with the political establishment.In 1971,The Times published a series of stories saying that politicians had systematically lied over the US involvement in Vietnam.The source was thousands of leaked government documents known as the Pentagon Papers.The Nixon administration demanded that the paper stop publishing the stories on grounds of national security.But the paper refused,and then won the subsequent court case by arguing that the First Amendment of the US Constitution (宪法) guaranteed free speech.The case is seen as a landmark in the history of free speech in the US.Mr Sulzberger said he read more than 7,000 pages of the Pentagon Papers before personally deciding to publish them.

His family still holds a controlling stake (控股权) in The New York Times.He was a strong believer in family ownership of newspapers.He once joked:“My conclusion is simple.Nepotism works.”

(2014·德州模拟)Some animals will defend their territory by fighting with those who try to invade it.Fighting,however,is not often the best choice,since it uses up a large amount of energy,and can result in injury or even death.Most animals rely on various threats,either through sounds or smells.The songs of birds,the drumming of woodpeckers and the loud calls of monkeys are all warnings that carry for long distances,advertising to possible invaders that someone else’s territory is being approached.Many animals rely on smells to mark their territories or leaving droppings around the territories.Other animals will be warned off the territory without ever meeting with the territory’s defender.

Sometimes,these warnings may be ignored,and an invader may move accidentally into a neighboring territory,or two animals may meet near the border of their nearby territories.When the two animals meet,they will generally threaten each other with visual (视觉的) displays.These displays will often exaggerate an animal’s size by putting up feathers or fur,or will show off the animal’s weapons.The animals may go through all the behavior of fighting without ever actually touching each other.The displays are generally performed best near the center of an animal’s territory,where it is more likely to attack an invader and where retreating becomes more of a choice.

Actual fighting usually only happens in overcrowded conditions,when resources are not enough.Serious injury can result,and old or sick animals may die,leading to a more balanced population size.Under most natural conditions,territoriality is an effective way of maintaining a healthy population.The study of social behaviors such as territoriality in animals may also help us to understand human society.

1.What topic is the passage mainly involved in?

A.What animals’ territory is usually like.

B.How animals deal with different threats.

C.How animals defend their territory.

D.Where animal fights take place frequently.

2.For most animals,what’s their first response to the possible invaders to defend their territory?

A.Fighting in groups.

B.Threatening and warning.

C.Escaping before being hurt.

D.Asking partners for help.

3.What does the underlined word “exaggerate” in the second paragraph mean?

A.enlarge  B.change

C.shake  D.shrink

4.An actual fight will happen when________.

A.animals meet near the border of their territories

B.the invader enters the defender’s territories

C.the defender notices the invader smaller than itself

D.the living resources are limited in the territory

5.The last paragraph tells us that territoriality has an influence on the________of the animals.

A.communication  B.condition

C.population  D.migration
