Read the following selection below and prepare to answer questions.
Celebrity photographers, also known as paparazzi, have gone too far in their quest to
snap pictures of the stars. Everyoneeven celebritiesshould have the right to privacy, yet
photographers routinely hound famous people everywhere they go. The creepiest of these
photographers are not above following their prey into bathrooms or climbing trees to get shots
of celebrities in their own homes. This constant invasion forces the rich and famous to become
rude and mean, setting a bad example for their often youthful fans. Even worse, though, the
paparazzi's behavior is frequently downright dangerous and irresponsible. One newspaper
recently reported that pop singer Britney Spears was forced to drive 90 miles an hour in an
attempt to outrun relentless photographers. And who can forget that in 1997, England's
Princess Diana was killed in a car accident while her driver tried to evade the paparazzi in a

high-speed chase. People may crave pictures of the stars, but most readers certainly would
not want them at the expense of a celebrity's safety. Newspapers and magazines should cease
paying for these kinds of photos while photographers who put celebrities in harm's way should
be arrested for stalking.(Source of information: Michael Paul, Lenoir, NC, "Paparazzi Go Much

Read the following selection below and prepare to answer questions.
Car alarms are a public nuisance. Their persistent and disruptive noise has been shown to
boost stress hormones that are linked to physiological illness and psychological distress.
Studies also show that children regularly exposed to car alarm noise have difficulty
concentrating on quiet tasks like reading. Because car alarm noise makes people irritable, it
also increases the tendency to be impatient and rude. In short, noisy car alarms are helping
erode public civility. And for what? For nothing. According to police, criminologists, insurance
companies, auto manufacturers, and even car thieves themselves, car alarms are next to
useless. A 1997 analysis of insurance claims from 73 million vehicles concluded that alarms
did not deter car theft. No one pays any attention to car alarms any more because 95 to 99
percent of the alarms are false. According to the Progressive Insurance Company, fewer than 1
percent of people surveyed say that they would call the police if they heard a car alarm. Plus,
today's car thieves are professionals undeterred by the presence of alarms, which they can
readily disable when necessary. Consequently, GM, Ford, and other manufacturers have begun
to stop putting alarms in their cars. This is their way of acknowledging that the alarms are
nothing but "noisemakers." It's outrageous that audible car alarms continue to needlessly
reduce our quality of life. They should be made illegal immediately. (Source of information:
