The concept of traffic-free shopping areas goes back a long time. During the Middle Ages, traffic-free
shopping areas known as souks were built in Middle Eastern countries to allow people to shop in comfort and,
more importantly, safety. As far back as 2,000 years ago, road traffic was banned from central Rome during
the day to allow for the free movement of pedestrians, and was only allowed in at night when shops and
markets had closed for the day. In most other cities, however, pedestrians were forced to share the streets with
horses, coaches and, later, with cars and other motorised vehicles.
The modern, traffic-free shopping street was born in Europe in the 1960s, when both city populations and
car ownership increased rapidly. Dirty exhaust fumes from cars and the risks involved in crossing the road
were beginning to make shopping an unpleasant and dangerous experience. Many believed the time was right
for experimenting with car-free streets, and shopping areas seemed the best place to start.
At first, there was resistance from shopkeepers. They believed that such a move would be bad for business.
They argued that people would avoid streets if they were unable to get to them in their cars. When the first
streets in Europe were closed to traffic, there were even noisy demonstrations, as many shopkeepers predicted
they would lose customers.
However, research carried out afterwards in several European cities revealed some unexpected statistics.
In Munich, Cologne and Hamburg, visitors to shopping areas increased by 50 percent. On Copenhagen's main
shopping street, shopkeepers reported sales increases of 25-40 percent. Shopkeepers in Minneapolis, USA,
were so impressed when they learnt this that they even offered to pay for the construction and maintenance
costs of their own traffic-free streets.
(Adapted from Complete IELTS Workbook by Rawdon Wyatt)

Transition. It’s a pleasant word and a calming concept. Change may frighten some and challenge others.
But transition means going surely and sweetly from somewhere present to somewhere future. Unless, that is,
it is newspapers’ ‘transition’ to the online world, an uncertain and highly uncomfortable process – because,
frankly, it may not be a process at all. But surely (you say) it is bound to happen eventually. Everybody knows
that print newspaper sales are plummeting while visits to the same papers’ websites keep on soaring. Just
look at the latest print circulation figures. The Daily Telegraph, The Guardian and many of the rest are down
overall between 8% and 10% year-on-year, but their websites go ever higher. All of which may well be true,
depending on timing, demography, geography and more. After all, everyone – from web academics to print
analysts – says so. Yet pause for a while and count a few little things that don’t quite fit.
One is the magazine world, both in the UK and in the US. It ought to be collapsing, wrecked by the move
to the tablets which fit existing magazine page sizes so perfectly. But, in fact, the rate of decline in magazine
purchasing is relatively small, with subscriptions holding up strongly and advertising remarkably solid. You
can discover a similar phenomenon when it comes to books. Kindle and similar e-readers are booming, with
sales up massively this year. The apparent first step of transition couldn’t be clearer. Yet, when booksellers
examined the value of the physical books they sold over the last six months, they found it just 0.4% down.
Screen or paper, then? It wasn’t one or the other: it was both.
So, if sales in that area have fallen so little, perhaps the crisis mostly affects newspapers? Yet again, though,
the messages are oddly mixed. The latest survey of trends by the World Association of Newspapers shows
that global circulation rose 1.1% last year (to 512 million copies a day). Sales in the West dropped back but
Asia more than made up the difference.
Such varying national trends may well reflect a situation far more complicated than the prophets of digital
revolution assume. America’s media analysts used to argue that booming online advertising revenues would
pay for change and, along with lower production costs, make online newspapers a natural success. But now,
with digital advertisements on newspaper sites actually dropping back, such assumptions seem like history.
(Adapted from Compact Advanced by Peter May)
Question 36. Which best serves as the title for the passage?
A. Yesterday’s News - Newspaper circulation continues to decline.
B. Defying the digital movement - Magazines and books still remain popular.
C. The Print Media Paradox - What really lies ahead for the newspaper?
D. Hold your iPad - Is print media all that bad?
