　　London has a magazine which you can receive on TV, because it is not printed on paper．

　　If you want to read this magazine, you have to get a decoder(譯碼)．Each page of it is numbered, so you only have to dial(撥)the number to choose what you want to read about．You can choose anything you want, from cooking to the latest news．

　　If you want to read the news, the first thing you have to do is to turn to the index(　　)page which has an easy-to-remember page number, 100．Then you choose what you want to read．The news is on pages 101 to 109, so when you push the numbers you can see the news written across your screen．Perhaps you want to go out in the afternoon, if so you can press 181, and you can see a brightly colored weather map on the screen．Should you drive or take the train?To answer that question you only have to press 189 for the traffic report．It is very simple to use and the best thing about the service is that it is being updated(更新)all the time．Whole pages of the magazine can be replaced(取代)in minutes．

　　London already has three such services．One, transmitted(傳送)by TV, is called ORSCLE．The other two, on BBC, are called CEEFAX and ORACLE because they let you see facts．Though CEEFAX and ORACLE have been in use for some time, they have not been publicized(公布，宣傳)．BBC engineers don’t think that their idea will ever replace books and newspapers because they can be taken with a person everywhere．However, many people would agree that this is a breakthrough as great as the invention of printing, which could change not just our reading habits but our whole way of life．

　　Last Sunday the elephant keeper at London Zoo, Jim Robson, was killed by one of the elephants he loved．This was terrible, and it could be a big problem for the future(將來(lái))of London Zoo-and maybe for all of Britain's city zoos．

　　London Zoo said that it would move its three elephants to a wild(野生的)animal park outside London．Its director-general(總經(jīng)理), Michael Dioxn, said,“We are sorry that the elephants are leaving; there have been elephants at Lon-don Zoo since 1831．”

　　One British newspaper said that though many small animals were very interesting, most people wanted to see big animals－and most of all elephants．

　　London Zoo is not only losing its elephants．The tigers will also leave soon and most of the bears(熊)have already gone．Outside the elephant house at London Zoo, a woman called Mary said she hoped the zoo could keep big animals．“This is the only way the young people can see animals without travelling to other countries,”she said．

　　Zoos are not very good places for animals, but they can help to well keep them．Children can also learn a lot about the animals when they visit zoos．

　　Another visitor, a man called Alan, was very angry．“If we send them back to the wild they will die．If you take away big animals, people will stop visiting London Zoo．It can survive(繼續(xù)生存)at the moment, but it won't survive in the future．”
