The holiday is upon us. Finally, after months of study, you have some time to yourself. So, why not read
a book? Well, some people will say, "Why bother with books? We have the Internet that offers a lot of more
colorful fun. Books are history!" But don"t be fooled. I"m sure there"s still a lot to be said for reading.
One clear reason is that a well-chosen book can give you a lot of wonderful vocabulary, so long as you
have a good dictionary, of course. Believe me, it"s far easier to get new English words and phrases from a
book or an article than it is from the TV or the Internet.
But another more important point is that books give you something that the Internet simply can not. The
average webpage is picture-heavy and the text is often designed to make it as easy to read as possible. While
"easy" may attract you, unfortunately it"s of little use for any long-term development of reading skills and the
general language level. Because of that, reading on the Internet cannot take the place of reading books.
But perhaps the best single reason is that simply choosing what you read and doing it independently means
that it"s something you do by and for yourself. You can choose what you want to read. It"s hard work, but
somewhere down the line, you"ll find that what once seemed like a duty is now a pleasure. |
| 1. How many reasons for reading a book does the author mention in the passage? |
A. One.
B. Two.
C. Three.
D. Four. |
| 2. One clear reason for reading books is that it is much easier to get new _____. |
A. fun
B. articles
C. pictures
D. vocabulary |
| 3. Some people say "Books are history!" because _____. |
A. they like funny books
B. they don"t like reading at all
C. they don"t like history books
D. they like reading on the Internet |

level. |
A. reading books
B. reading on the Internet
C. taking holidays
D. checking dictionaries |

A. pleasure
B. knowledge
C. facts

Monday: Here I am, in the middle of nowhere. This camping trip idea is not getting off to a very good
start. It"s raining and the tent leaks. The hiking seemed to take forever, and I still can"t understand how it
could all have been up hill! How did I ever let my brother talk me into this? When we get home-if we ever
get home-he"s going to have to do something great to get back on my good side. Maybe he should sponsor
a shopping spree (狂购) at the mall!
Tuesday: Things are looking up. The sun came out today, so we were able to leave the tents and dry
out. We"re camped at the edge of a small lake that I couldn"t see before because of the rain and fog. The
mountains are all around us, and the forest is absolutely beautiful. We spent most of the day dragging out
everything out of our backpacks or tents and putting it where the sun could dry it out. Later in the afternoon
we tried to catch the fish for dinner, but the fish were smarter than we were. At night we built a fire and
sang songs happily.
Wednesday: We hiked to the far side of the lake and climbed to the top of a small peak. From there we
could see how high the other mountains were and how far the forest spread around us. On the way up we
passed through a snowfield!
Thursday: I caught my first fish! We followed the stream that fed the lake. After about two miles, we
came to a section that Carol said looked "fishy". She had a pack rod (竿), which can be carried in a backpack.
I asked to cast it, and I caught a fish on my first try. Carol caught a few more. But they were just too pretty
to eat for lunch, so we put them back in the stream.
Friday: I can"t believe we are going home already. It will be nice to get a hot shower, sleep in a real bed,
and eat junk food, but the trip has been wonderful. We"re already talking about another camping adventure
next year where we canoe down a river. It"s hard to believe, but I think this city girl has a little country
blood in her veins. |

A. she enjoyed camping

Count Me Out
Call me old-fashioned. Call me old. Call me what you want, but I refuse to become part of this new Internet
world.
I do not possess a computer at home or at the office. Actually, I stopped going to an office 35 years ago,
when all communications were done with a pen, a typewriter, or, if the matter was of world-shaking
importance, over the telephone. Likewise, if you liked something advertised in a newspaper or magazine, you
visited the shop selling it at the given address, or you phoned the number shown. Then you spoke to the fellow
and asked for further details.
Tell me what you think of the following ad that appeared the other day in the newspaper. It was for a cure
for cancer and this is what it said: Awareness is the key. Visit spfulford, corn at the awareness site." There was
no address or telephone number for the site. So what do unfortunate people without a computer do it they are
seeking a cure for their illness?
There are, I am told, certain advantages in having access to the Internet. You can, for example, send love
messages across the world or even get married to someone that you meet online. This bit doesn"t interest me;
I have been happily married for 60 years. There are, of course, other activities for Internet users besides finding
love. They can pay bills, order groceries, or discuss with their doctors.
And this is by no means all. More amazing things are yet to come in the near future. I read a newspaper
report recently that quoted Stephen Hawking, an important British scientist. "The complexity of a computer as
it exists today is probably less than the brain of an earthworm," he said. "But, as technology advances,
computers will become more complex, and a time may come when the Internet may develop "consciousness."
In other words, the Internet will be able to think, have feelings, and may well be able to act on its own."
If Professor Hawking is right, I may change my attitude about computers. As I grow older each day, I
would like one of those that not only thinks for me but also accepts responsibilities for all my mistakes. |
| 1. What"s the meaning of the title "Count Me Out"? |
A. Get me out of the Internet world.
B. Computers are trying to take control of life.
C. Modern technology pushes old people away.
D. Do not expect me to be a supporter of the Internet. |
| 2. According to Paragraph 2, the author thinks computers are _____. |
A. unnecessary
B. convenient
C. expensive
D. advanced |
| 3. What might the author like about the future computer? |
A. Taking blames.
B. Curing illnesses.
C. Delivering messages.
D. Responding to emotions. |

This is an open letter to the three people who stole my handbag from the department store where I am
employed as a shop assistant.
When you took my bag, I don"t know what you thought you were going to get. With my wages, there"s
not much left on a Tuesday. I hope the 5 was useful to you. I have informed the social security office so
you won"t be able to cash the child benefit next week. I hope that won"t leave you too short, but if you really
need a couple of pounds, I suppose you could always cash one of the two checks left in my check book.
Of course, I phoned the bank right away and the check-cashing card is no longer valid, so it won"t be much
use to you.
Actually I don"t mind about the money too much. We single parents who work to support our families
understand only too well what it means to be short of cash. However, I don"t suppose it went very far among
the three of you. Sorry about that!
I wish you had left the bag behind and just taken the wallet and check book. There were all kinds of papers
in it, and notes and things that I really need. I really think that was very inconsiderate of you. I mean, how
would you like something like that to happen to you?
Well, perhaps the bag will turn up. It wasn"t even an expensive one, just a plain, old brown leather shoulder
bag. You probably dumped it in the nearest rubbish bin or threw it into the bushes. We"ve looked around, of
course, but no one saw which way you went after you left the shop.
I"m not really angry with you. I know how the pressures of modern living can affect us, but I am sad at
the loss of my personal things. I feel violated and helpless. The police were very icy, and they just shrugged
(耸) their shoulders."It happens all the time," they told me. Some small comfort, I suppose. But I"ve lost just
a little more faith in human nature. And as my young son said when I told him what had happened, "Why?
Mummy, why us?" I couldn"t answer that question. I wonder if you can. |
| 1. In writing Paragraph 2, the writer wants to _____. |
A. describe the contents of the bag in detail
B. give some suggestions to the three thieves
C. tell the thieves hardly any money was available
D. state the fact that she was careless with the money |
| 2. Which of the following is the most valuable to the writer? |
A. The cash in her bag.
B. The papers and notes in the bag.
C. The handbag itself.
D. The check books in the bag. |
| 3. What can we conclude about the police? |
A. They have doubts about human nature.
B. They show sympathy for the woman.
C. They think the case quite common.
D. They are unable to find the thieves. |
| 4. Why does the author write the letter? |
A. To give the thieves a serious warning.
B. To complain about the fall of morality.
C. To call people"s attention to their belongings.
D. To express her affection for her valuable bag. |
