Lesson 45The power of pressPart 1: TextIn democratic countries any efforts to restrict the freedom of the press are rightly condemned. However, this freedom can easily be abused. Stories about people often attract far more public attention than political events. Though we may enjoy reading about the lives of others, it is extremely doubtful whether we would equally enjoy reading about ourselves. Acting on the contention that facts are sacred, reporters can cause untold suffering to individuals by publishing details about their private lives. Newspapers exert such tremendous influence that they can not only bring about major changes to the lives of ordinary people but can even overthrow a government.The story of a poor family that acquired fame and fortune overnight, dramatically illustrates the power of the press. The family lived in Aberdeen, a small town of 23,000 inhabitants in South Dakota. As the parents had five children, life was a perpetual struggle against poverty. They were expecting their sixth child and faced with even more pressing economic problems. If they had only had one more child, the fact would have passed unnoticed. They would have continued to struggle against economic odds and would have lived in obscurity. But they suddenly became the parents of quintuplets, four girls and a boy, an event which radically changed their lives. The day after the birth of the five children, an aeroplane arrived in Aberdeen bringing sixty reporters and photographers. The news was of national importance, for the poor couple had bee the parents of the only quintuplets in America.The rise to fame was swift. Television cameras and newspapers carried the news to everyone in the country. Newspapers and magazines offered the family huge sums for the exclusive rights to publish stories and photographs. Gifts poured in not only from unknown people, but from baby food and soap manufacturers who wished to advertise their products. The old farmhouse the family lived in was to be replaced by a new $100,000 home. Reporters kept pressing for interviews so lawyers had to be employed to act as spokesmen for the family at press conferences. The event brought serious changes to the town itself. Plans were announced to build a huge new highway, as Aberdeen was now likely to attract thousands of tourists. Signposts erected on the outskirts of the town directed tourists not to Aberdeen, but to'QuintCity U.S.A.' The local authorities discussed the possibility of erecting a 'quint museum' to satisfy the curiosity of the public and to protect the family from inquisitive tourists. While the five babies were still quietly sleeping in oxygen tents in a hospital nursery, their parents were paying the price for fame. It would never again be possible for them to lead normal lives. They had bee the victims of mercialization,for their names had acquired a market value. The town itself received so much attention that almost every one of the inhabitants was affected to a greater or less degree.Part 2: New words and expressions1.democratic ['demә'kræ3.abuse [ә'bju:z, ә'bju:s] n.辱骂，责骂4.contention [kәn'tenʃә6.obscurity [әb'skjuә7.radically ['rædikәli] ad.彻底地，完全地8.exclusive [iks'klu:siv] a.独占的，的9.untold ['ʌn'tould] a.数不尽地，无限的10.South [sauθ] 南达科他州(美国)11.perpetual [pә'petʃuә12.nursery ['nә:sәri] n.育婴室，保育室13 mercialization [kә'mә:ʃәlai'zeiʃdemocratic leadership 民主领导democratic reforms 民主改革★restrict oneself/sth to sthbe restricted to 限于,局限于He restricted himself to five cigarettes a day. 他约束自己每天只抽五支烟。
