The winter skies are grey and it’s cold outside. The nights come early and we spend a lot more time  16   and alone. Many people   17   winter: so cold, so dark, so boring. But I like winter because I have more time to read.

For many students reading means school; it means   18  . Reading is something your teacher assigns and it’s something you’re   19  . Reading is something you have to do, not something you want to do. But for me and many other people, reading is the most   20   thing we can imagine. Getting lost in a good book can   21   a cold winter evening disappear. Dull grey skies are no   22   for the fantastic adventures of Frodo in The Lord of the Rings《指环王》,or for romantic trouble-making of Jane Austen’s Emma《爱玛》, or for the youthful problems of Holden Caulfield in The Catcher in the Rye《麦田守望者》.

All of those books are studied in North American high schools. They are interesting and well written books that   23   young people.   24  , even there, many high school students don’t enjoy reading the books because they are   25   their school work: “Oh, my God! Two hundred pages! I’ll never be able to read   26   much.” But sometimes a funny thing happens. They begin to read and they begin to follow the   27  . Suddenly, the world inside the book becomes more exciting and more wonderful than the world they   28  . At the moment the thought   29   reading is work disappears and reading becomes   30  .

Reading anything is   31   but reading good books is a terrific way to improve your English. Good writers write English very well and   32   you with good examples to follow. And good books will tell you more about English   33  : what people think, how they talk, how they interact with each other. But don’t let me  34   it by telling you that reading is good for you. Just think of it as a good way to   35   on a cold winter evening.

BUNOL, Spain (AFP) — Tens of thousands of people from around the world threw tons of ripe tomatoes at each other in an annual food fight that painted the eastern Spanish town of Bunol red.

More than 40,000 people, including many visitors from Australia, Britain and the United States, took part in the food fight known as the “Tomatina”, now in its 64th year, a spokeswoman for Bunol’s town hall said.

They were provided with over 100 tons of tomatoes by the town council for the battle which lasted about one hour and left participants covered in red.

Many men were shirtless while others wore old clothes, hardhats, goggles or protective plastic sheets.

Shopkeepers put up huge plastic covers on their store fronts or boarded them up to protect their properties from the sea of red mush (糊状物).

After the battle, governmental workers and local residents used “giant hoses” to clear the walls and streets of the tomato pulp in just half an hour while the participants headed to a nearby river where temporary showers were set up.

The event cost the town of some l0,000 residents 40,000 dollars, Spanish media reported.

The “Tomatina” is held each year in Bunol, located in a fertile (富饶的) region about 40 kilometres north of the coastal city of Valencia, Spain’s third-largest city, on the last Wednesday in August.

The origins of the event are unclear although it is thought to have its roots in a food fight between childhood friends in the mid-1940s in the city.

It has grown in size as international press coverage brought more and more people to the festival.

60. To keep their stores safe, the shopkeepers _____.

A. kept their store fronts covered                            B. hung plastic sheets on the walls

C. closed all the doors and windows                  D. stopped people throwing at them

62. It can be inferred from the passage that _____.

C. no one knows the history of the festival            

D. tourism plays an important role in Bunol
