Dear Customers,
I love slipping into a comfortable chair for a long read —as I relax into the chair,I also relax
into the author’s words,stories,and ideas.The physical book is so elegant that it disappears into
the background,and what remains is the author’s world.
Today,we at Amazon are excited to announce Mindle,a wireless,portable reading device with instant access to more than 90,000 books,magazines,and newspapers.
We’ve been working on Mindle for more than three years.Our top design objective was for
Mindle to disappear in your hands —to get out of the way —so you can enjoy your reading.We
also wanted to go beyond the physical book.Mindle is wireless,so whether you’re lying in bed or riding a train,you can think of a book,and have it in less than 60 seconds.No computer is needed—you do your reading directly from the device.
We chose the same wireless technology used in advanced mobile phones.But unlike mobile
phones,there are no monthly wireless bills,no service or data plans,and no yearly contracts.There
is no software to install.We want you to get lost in your reading and not in the technology.
Mindle uses a new kind of display called electronic paper.Sharp and natural with no strong
light,reading on Mindle is nothing like reading from a computer screen.Mindle weighs only 10.3
ounces —less than a paperback —but can carry two hundred books.
Enjoy learning about Mindle and many thanks!
60.This passage most probably is a(n)_________.
A.advertisement B.news story C.lab report D.letter of thanks
61.From the passage we learn that Mindle is a device(设备)which.
A.has neither wires nor weight B.is operated by a computer
C.disappears while you read D.can find a book within one minute
62.With the device,the reader is able to .
A.enjoy reading when driving a car B.improve reading skills
C.gain access to free software D.get rid of heavy books made of paper
63.Different from mobile phones,Mindle_________.

C.doesn’t involve regular fees D.is wireless and can be used anywhere

Valentine’s Day was the time my father chose to show his love for the special people in his life. Over the years I fondly (天真的) thought 1 him as my “Valentine man”.
My first recollection of the 2 he could bring to Valentine’s Day came when I was six. That morning at the breakfast table I found a card and a gift-wrapped package at my chair. The card was 3 “Love, Dad” and the gift was a ring with a small piece of red glass to 4 my birthstone, a ruby (红宝石). There is 5 difference between red glass and rubies to a child of six, and I remember 6 that ring with pride that all the cards in the world 7 not surpass (超越).
8 I grew older, the gifts gave 9 to heart-shaped boxes filled with my 10__ chocolate and always included a 11 card signed “Love, Dad”. In those years my thank-you became 12 of a perfunctory (敷衍) response. The cards seemed less 13 , and I took for granted that the Valentine would 14 be there. I had 15 my hopes and dreams in receiving cards and gifts from “significant others” and “Love Dad” just didn’t seem quite 16 .
His final card remains on my desk today. It’s a 17 of how special fathers can be and how important it has been to me over the years to know that I had a father who continued a 18_ of love with simple acts of understanding and an ability to express happiness over the people in his life.
Those things never 19 , nor does the memory of a man who never 20 being my Valentine.
1. A. of B. about C. up D. over
