4.A Kindle is a product from Amazon which allows you to download books and read them anywhere,without having to carry around lots of heavy books.It is also really useful when you go on holiday if you read a lot and quickly.
I bought my Kindle two years ago after seeing my sister with one.Before,I didn't want one,as I love the satisfaction that comes from reading a book from cover to cover.However,one day,after using my sister's I fell in love with it.It is easy to download any book you can imagine from the website.One minute you see the book online,the next it is in your hands.And you can read a wide range of books-from classic books such as Pride and Prejudice and works by Shakespeare,to modern comedy books.
Another thing I love about the Kindle is the  privacy.You can read absolutely anything on there and nobody will know!For example,if you want to read a book which might be advertised as a children's book,you can secretly read it and everyone will believe you are reading a deeply thoughtful novel!
Reading a Kindle gives you a chance to escape the real world.You can also do this with normal books,but the secrecy and excitement of downloading a new book onto your device adds to the magic.
This doesn't mean I have completely given up reading physical books.I still love them.I often go into old bookshops and find a well-known novel for£1,or borrow old books from my grandfather's library.There is a worry that with all this new technology there will no longer be a place for physical books,which would be a crying shame.So,I definitely recommend getting yourself a Kindle,but please,don't forget about physical books,either!

66.According to the passage,people can use a Kindle toB.
A.download films and see them        B.download books and read them
C.download music and listen to it    D.download games and play them

A.After she used her sister's.     B.After she saw one in the shop.
C.Before her sister bought one.     D.When she saw its advertisement.
68.The meaning of the underlined word"privacy"in Paragraph 3is close to"B".
A.agency     B.secret       C.policy     D.community
69.How should people who get a Kindle deal with physical books?C
A.They should forget them.          B.They should never buy them.
C.They should also read them.      D.They should throw them away.

12.阅读下面短文,按照要求完成阅读任务.
    HOW do you tell others you are speechless via text messages without too much explanation?Standard texts can be boring,and sometimes your emotions get lost in it,You have to be so good at using descriptive language to express your exact feelings.Hence the birth of the Emoji-cake with lit candles to say"Happy Birthday",or a grinning (笑嘻嘻) face with a party hat to show"I"m having a great time".
    For those who aren't in the know yet,.Emoji-which come from Japanese and translate to"picture letter"-expand on the idea of the emoticon(情感符号)with cute,detailed,full color graphics.Instead of just typing a colon and parenthesis¨:)",you can choose from a grinning face with its eyes closed,a winking(眨眼) sticking its tongue out or a red-cheeked face with its eyes lowered in embarrassment. There are also  several Emoji hearts,ranging from swelling red ones,broken ones to those、with an arrow shot through them.
  And that's just the tip of the iceberg.The Emoji vocabulary also includes many objects from everyday life,such as animals,electronic appliances,tools,food and vehicles.With  some creativity you can make an entire sentence using only these cute symbols.
    Emoji might seem like a juvenile(幼稚的)form of  communication,and some even argue that they will cause people's language  skills to decline.But fans say they are humorous and take the edge away from serious conversations.
    Emoji have become so popular that an American named Fred Benenson recently launched a project called"Emoji Dick".His intention is to translate US writer Herman Melville's masterpiece Moby Dick (《白鲸》)into Emoji.Why is he doing this?He explained himself this way to The New Yorker.
"I'm interested in the phenomenon of how our language,communications,and culture are influenced by digital technology.Emoji are either a low point or a high point in that story,so I felt I could confront a lot of our shared anxieties about the future of human expression by forcing a great work of literature through such a strange new filter(滤镜)."
56.What is Emoji?(No more than 4 words)picture letter 
57.Why do some people worry about the rising popularity of Emoji?(No more than 15 words)they will cause people's language skills to decline
58.What does the underlined word"confront"in Paragraph 6 mean?(No more than 4 words)deal with
59.Please give a title to this passage.(No more than 6 words)Talking about Emoji
60.What do you think of Emoji?(No more than 20 words)It is a humorous way to express fellings when used probably..

As a child,the old clock fascinated me.I watched and listened to it during meals.Even more wonderful to me was my grandfather's ritual.He wound(上发条) that clock with a special key carefully each day.That key was magic to me.It kept our family's magnificent clock ticking and chiming.I remember watching as my grandfather took the key from his pocket and opened the hidden door in the clock.He inserted the key and wound-not too much,nor too little.He never let that clock wind down and stop.He showed us grandchildren how to open the door and let us each take turns winding the key.I remember the first time I did it I was so excited to be part of this family ritual.
After my grandfather died,it was days after the funeral before I remembered the clock!"Mama!The clock!We've let it wind down."The tears flowed freely when I entered the dining room.The clock stood there quiet.It even seemed smaller without my grandfather's special touch.
Some time later,my grandmother gave me the clock and the key.The old house was quiet.No laughter over the dinner table,no ticking or chiming of the clock-all was still.I took the key in my shaking hand and opened the clock door.All of a sudden,I was a child again,watching my grandfather with his silver-white hair and blue eyes.He was there,winking at me,at the secret of the clock's magic,at the key that held so much power.
I stood,lost in the moment for a long time.Then slowly and carefully I inserted the key and wound the clock.I sprang to life.Tick-Tock,tick-tock,life and chimes were breathed into the dining room,into the house and into my heart.In the movement of the hands of the clock,my grandfather lived again.
63.The best title for the passage can beC.
A.My Grandfather     B.My Family    C.Grandfather's Clock    D.The Dining Room

B.the clock stood there quiet
C.Grandfather didn't wind the clock
