besides, with internet, information can be transmitted 3 dimentional, which consists of sound, live show and even interaction. whereas in the paper, only words and photographs could be presented in news stories. therefore, the former has been made more vivid and descriptive.
last but not least, computerizing the process of information dissemination provides us with a more objective and state-of-the art point of view. through internet, we can obtain every detail we might want to know, which was sometimes unrevealed by newspapers for this or that reason. obviously, the more accurate the facts are, the more easily an objective opinion can be formed.

简 评
本文选择了一个有趣的标题形式“2l世纪：报纸vs信息”。作者运用标题表达了文章的主题思想：2l世纪网络将成为传统报业的强劲对手。
另一个值得注意的是，在不足30个句子的短文中出现了10处被动句，作者的用意应该是十分明显的。如开篇以并列形式出现的“the role of newspapers is being seriously challenged”，“newspaper will be replaced by other computer based means’表现了传统报纸的岌岌可危和将被取而代之的紧迫形式。这一立场在文中的其他部分得到了更一步的强化，颇有大势所趋，又无可奈何的悲壮。
应该说，作者对句式的多样化比较注意，把握得较好。文中有“the more．．．the more．．．”，也运用了圆周句即把主要信息置于句首，也运用了掉尾句即把句子的主要信息置于句尾，如“as a mater of bet，in today，s world where nearly everything starts with an e，newspaper will be replaced by other computer based means。
文中有一处引用了数据300，000，000，而不是用“threehundred million从而显示了网络信息传输速度是为报纸所不可企及的。作者运用数据来增强文章和论点说服力的这一意识和做法，是值得肯定的。
