         Some people think that as more and more people have televisions in their homes, fewer and fewer people
    will buy books and newspapers. Why read an article in the newspaper when the TV news can bring you the
    information in a few minutes and with pictures? Why read a novel when a play on television can tell you the
    same story with color, pictures and action? Why read the biographies of famous men and women when a
    one-hour-long television program can tell you all that you want to know?
         Television has not killed reading, however. Today, newspapers and magazines sell in very large numbers.
    And books of every kind are sold more than ever before. Books are still a cheap way to get information and
    entertainment. Although some books with hard covers are expensive, many books are published today as
    paperbacks, which are reasonably cheap. A paperback novel, for example, is always cheaper than an evening
    at the movies or the theater, and you can keep a book forever and read it many times.
         Books in the home are a wonderful source of knowledge and pleasure and some types of books should be
    in every home. Every home should have a good dictionary. Every home should have an atlas (地图集) of the
    world, with large clear maps. It might be expensive, but a good encyclopedia is useful, too, because you can
    find information on any subject. In addition, it is useful to have on your bookshelves other non-fiction books
    such as history books, science textbooks, cook books, books about medicine and health, etc. it is equally
    important to have some fiction (小说) on your shelves, too. Then you can relax with a good story, or from
    time to time you can take a book of poems off your shelves and read thoughts and feelings of your favorite
    poets.
    1. Which is usually quicker?
    A. To read a biography of a famous person.
    B. To watch a television program about a famous person.
    C. To read a newspaper or a magazine.
    D. To buy a good dictionary at home.
    2. What's the Chinese meaning of the underlined word "encyclopedia"?
    A. 百科全书
    B. 小说
    C. 医药卫生
    D. 世界地图
    3. Which is usually cheaper?
    A. A paperback.
    B. A hard-cover book.
    C. An evening at the movies.
    D. All above.
    4. Which is the most important to have in your home?
    A. Non-fiction books, such as a dictionary and an encyclopedia.

    “ Cool ” is a word with many meanings. Its old meaning is used to express a temperature that is a little bit cold. As the world has changed, the word has had many different meanings.

    “ Cool ” can be used to express feelings of interest in almost anything.

    When you see a famous car in the street, maybe you will say, “It’s cool . ” You may think, “He’s so cool，”when you see your favourite footballer.

    We all maximize（扩大）the meaning of “cool”. You can use it instead of many words such as “ new ”or “ surprising ”. Here’s an interesting story we can use to show the way the word is used.

On one student’s paper was just the one sentence, “It’s so cool. ” Maybe he thought it was the best way to show what he saw and felt.

    But the story also shows a scarcity（缺乏）of words. Without “cool”, some people have no words to show the same meaning. So it is quite important to keep some credibility （可信性）.

    阅读理解

    We spent a few days in Paris last week. We visit the famous city quite regularly. After all, it only takes three hours from London to Pairs. It’s always a pleasure visiting places we really like, exploring areas we’ve never been.

    The only unlucky thing this time was the weather. As soon as we got there the temperature reached almost 35 degrees C (which lasted until we left). It was so hot that Matthew just couldn’t stand it — for him, it wasn’t the most enjoyable trip. I felt sorry for him because every time we go there he has to put up with (忍受) my endless shopping spree (狂欢) …

    Because of the heat, we ended up just having lots of ice-cream and drinks most of the time, although we managed to pay a few visits to the new Herme shop on rue de Vaugirard at least. It’s not as busy as the shop on rue Bonaparte so you can choose whatever you like without worrying about a queue behind you! I really enjoyed his bread this time as well as the cakes. And I must say that his Croissant aux Amandes and Bostock were simply the best I’ve ever had.

    1.Which of the following is TRUE according to the first paragraph?

    A．It was the first time for the writer to go to Paris.

    B．It was a long way from London to Paris.

    C．The writer lives in London.

    D．The writer only likes to go to places she has never been to.

    2. The underlined word “stand” in the second paragraph means ____.

    A．享受

    B．忍受

    C．站立

    D．位于

    3. What can you know about Matthew from the second paragraph? 

    A．He doesn’t like shopping.

    B．He doesn’t like travelling.

    C．He is one of the writer’s relatives.

    D．He isn’t a good husband.

    4. The shops on rue Bonaparte ____.

    A．has no bread that the writer likes

    B．is often crowded with customers

    C．don’t have anything the writer likes

    D．is not very busy all the time

    5.What’s the best title for the passage? 

    A．An unpleasant trip

    B．A great city

    C．A shopping centre

    D．A trip to Paris
