Time spent in a bookshop can be most enjoyable, whether you are a booklover or merely go there
to buy a book as a present. You may even have entered the shop just to find shelter from a sudden
shower. Whatever the reason, you can soon become totally unaware of your surroundings.
The desire to pick up a book with an attractive dust_jacket is irresistible, although this method of
selection ought not to be followed, as you might end up with a rather dull book.
You soon become interested in some book or other, and usually it is only much later that you realize
you have spent far too much time there and must dash off to keep some forgotten appointment-without
buying a book, of course.
This opportunity to escape the realities of everyday life is, I think, the main attraction of a bookshop.
There are not many places where it is possible to do this. A music shop is very much like a bookshop.
You can wander round such places to your heart"s content. If it is a good shop, no assistant will approach
you with the inevitable greeting: "Can I help you, sir?" You needn"t buy anything you don"t want.In a
bookshop an assistant should remain in the background until you have finished browsing. Then, and only
then, are his services necessary. Of course, you may want to find out where a particular section is, but
when he has led you there, the assistant should retire discreetly (谨慎地) and look as if he is not
interested in selling a single book.
You have to be careful not to be attracted by the variety of books in a bookshop. It is very easy to
enter the shop looking for a book on, say ancient coins and to come out carrying a copy of the latest
bestselling novel and perhaps a book about brassrubbing-something which had only slightly interested
you up till then. This volume on the subject, however, happened to be so well illustrated and the part of
the text you read proved so interesting that you just had to buy it.This sort of thing can be very
dangerous. Apart from running up a huge account, you can waste a great deal of time wandering from
section to section. |

| 完形填空 | As a child, I was truly afraid of the dark and of getting lost; these fears were very real and caused me
some uncomfortable moments.
Maybe it was the strange 1 things looked and sounded in my familiar room at night that 2 me
so much. There was never total 3 , but a streetlight or passing car lights 4 clothes hung over a
chair takeon(呈现) the 5 of a wild animal. Out of the corner of my 6 , I saw the curtains seem to
move when there was no 7 . A tiny sound in the floor would seem a hundred times louder than in the
daylight. My 8 would run wild, and my heart would beat fast. I would 9 very still so that the "
enemy" would not discover me.
Another of my childhood fears was that I would get lost, 10 on the way home from school. Every
morning I got on the school bus right near my home .That was no 11 . After school, 12 , when all the buses were 13 up along the street, I was afraid that I"d get on the wrong one and be taken to
some 14 neighborhood. On school or family trips to a park or a museum, I wouldn"t let the leaders out
of my 15 .
Perhaps one of the worst fears 16 all I had as a child was that of not being liked or 17 by
others. Being popular was so important to me 18 , and the fear of not being liked was a 19 one.
One of the processes(过程) of growing up is being able to 20 and overcome(克服) our fears.

D. recover | I have been a student at Bentley College in Waltham for some time now, so I have a lot of experience and know how things work at Bentley. As a freshman(新生)at Bentley College you will be living in the
Tree Dorms, Slade Hall or Miller Hall. I would highly suggest that you choose to live in the Tree Dorms
because this is where most fresh-men are going to be living. There will be a lot of activities going on in the building and you will meet lots of people. Slade Hall is next to the parking lot and not far from the Tree
Dorms, so that would be your second choice. As Miller Hall is small and far away, it would be my last
choice for freshmen housing. If Bentley offers you the chance to live with second or third year students
you"d better refuse their offer and live with freshmen. Living with your classmates will make the transition (过渡) into college life a lot easier.
As a freshman your classes should be easy. After freshman year your classes will become a lot more
difficult, so I advise that you get down to business early in the first year. There are two very easy things you can do to increase your knowledge as a freshman. The first is to just go to class and the second is to
always do your homework. I also highly advise that you do it on your own and try to stay disciplined. It is
tooeasy to put your homework away and then get really behind and not be able to learn everything before a mid-term or final exam.
1. The author advises freshmen to live in the Tree Dorms because ___________.
A. it is across the parking lot from Slade Hall
B. it is small and quite far away from the playground
C. there are many second and third year students there
D. there are many freshmen and more activities
2. Where is Slade Hall?
A. Near Miller Hall.
B. Far from Tree Dorms.
C. Beside the car park.
D. Near the classrooms
.
3. According to the author, how can freshmen improve knowledge?
A. Remember to do homework by discussing it with others.
B. Finish homework and go to class every day.
C. Try to spend more time in the library.
D. Be able to learn something before a mid-term or final exam.
4. The author writes the passage to ___________.
A. tell new students how to get used to college life
B. tell new students about their teachers and dormitory
C. show the differences between college and high school
D. tell readers about some funny things at Bentley College
