　　【真题原文】

　　It is not easy to talk about the role of the mass media in this overwhelmingly significant phase in European history. History and news become confused, and one’s impressions tend to be a mixture of skepticism and optimism. (46) Television is one of the means by which these feelings are created and conveyed — and perhaps never before has it served so much to connect different peoples and nations as in the recent events in Europe. The Europe that is now forming cannot be anything other than its peoples, their cultures and national identities. With this in mind we can begin to analyze the European television scene. (47) In Europe, as elsewhere, multi-media groups have been increasingly successful: groups which bring together television, radio, newspapers, magazines and publishing houses that work in relation to one another. One Italian example would be the Berlusconi group, while abroad Maxwell and Murdoch come to mind.
　　Clearly, only the biggest and most flexible television companies are going to be able to compete in such a rich and hotly-contested market. (48) This alone demonstrates that the television business is not an easy world to survive in, a fact underlined by statistics that show that out of eighty European television networks, no less than 50% took a loss in 1989.
　　Moreover, the integration of the European community will oblige television companies to cooperate more closely in terms of both production and distribution.
　　(49) Creating a “European identity” that respects the different cultures and traditions which go to make up the connecting fabric of the Old Continent is no easy task and demands a strategic choice —that of producing programs in Europe for Europe. This entails reducing our dependence on the North American market, whose programs relate to experiences and cultural traditions which are different from our own.
　　In order to achieve these objectives, we must concentrate more on co-productions, the exchange of news, documentary services and training. This also involves the agreements between European countries for the creation of a European bank for Television Production which, on the model of the European Investments Bank, will handle the finances necessary for production costs. (50) In dealing with a challenge on such a scale, it is no exaggeration to say “United we stand, divided we fall” — and if I had to choose a slogan it would be “Unity in our diversity.” A unity of objectives that nonetheless respect the varied peculiarities of each country.

　　【第六段】

　　⑥(47) In Europe, as elsewhere, multi-media groups have been increasingly successful: groups which bring together television, radio, newspapers, magazines and publishing houses that work in relation to one another.
　　In Europe, as elsewhere, multi-media groups have been increasingly successful: groups which bring together television, radio, newspapers, magazines and publishing houses that work in relation to one another.
　　Europe n. 欧洲
　　as部分是介词短语作状语，表示：“和...一样；如同”
　　主句部分：multi-media groups have been increasingly successful: groups which bring together television, radio, newspapers, magazines and publishing houses that work in relation to one another.
　　multi- prefix. 多的；多个；许多
　　media n. 媒体
　　group n. 集团（大企业才可以叫做集团，比如：Wada Group（万达集团）、Alibaba Group（阿里巴巴集团）、Ant Group（蚂蚁集团））
　　这里是说多媒体集团，这里要译为媒体集团，多媒体有不同的含义，这篇文章强调的是媒体，传媒。
　　increasingly adv. 越来越多地；渐增地
　　successful adj.成功的；有成就的
　　即：许多媒体集团已经变得越来越成功
　　冒号后面是具体解释：
　　groups which bring together television, radio, newspapers, magazines and publishing houses that work in relation to one another.
　　这里的核心词就一个groups，这个groups就是前面那个，只不过定语太长，所以拿出来单独修饰，做说明。
　　which部分是定语从句：which bring together television, radio, newspapers, magazines and publishing houses
　　bring sth together：使团结起来；集合
　　这里sth（宾语太长），所以放在together的后面，叫做宾语后置。
　　television n. 电视
　　radio n. 收音机
　　newspaper n. 报纸
　　magazine n. 报纸
　　publishing n. 出版业；发行业
　　publishing houses：出版司；出版社
　　that部分是定语从句，修饰前面的名词：
　　groups which bring together television, radio, newspapers, magazines and publishing houses that work in relation to one another.
　　in relation to：①相对某物而言；②关于某事物；涉及某事物；与...有关
　　one another：彼此
　　即：它们是相互作用的
