阅读理解

　　Time spent in a bookshop can be most enjoyable, whether you are a book-lover or merely you are there to buy a book as a present. You may even have entered the shop just to find shelter from a sudden shower. Whatever the reason, you can soon become totally unaware of your surroundings. The desire to pick up a book with an attractive dust-jacket is irresistable, althought this method of selection ought not to be followed, as you might end up with a rather ,dull book. You soon become engrossed(使全神贯注) in some books or other, and usually it is only much later that you realize you have spent far too much time there and must dash off to keep some forgotten appointment－without buying a book, of course.

　　This opportunity to escape the realities of everyday life is, I think, the main attraction of bookshop. There are not many places where it is possible to do this. A music shop is very much like a bookshop. You can wander round such places to your heart’s content. If it is a good shop, no assistant will approach you with inevitable greeting:“Can I help you, sir?”You needn’t buy anything you don’t want. In a bookshop an assistant should remain in the background until you have finished browsing(浏览书刊). Then, and only then, are his services necessary. Of course you may want to find out where a particular section is, but when he has led you there, the assistant should retire carefully and look as if he is not interested in selling a single book.

　　You have to be careful not to be attracted by the variety of books in a bookshop. It is very easy to enter the shop looking for a book on ancient coins and to come out carrying a copy of the latest best-selling novel and perhaps a book about brass－rubbing something that had only vaguely interested you up until then. This volume on the subject, however, happened to be so well illustrated and the part of the text you read proved so interesting that you just had to buy it. This sort of thing can be very dangerous. Apart from running up a huge account, you can waste a great deal of time wandering from section to section.

1．“Dust-jacket”(Line 5, Para. l) probably means ________.

[　　]

A．a kind of clothes

B．protecting paper cover of a book

C．book cover full of dust

D．title of a book

2．You may spend too much time in a bookshop because ________.

[　　]

A．the dust-jackets of some books are very attractive

B．you start reading one of the books

C．it keeps raining outside

D．you have to make sure you don’t buy a dull book as a present

3．An assistant help is needed ________.

[　　]

A．as soon as you have entered the shop

B．before you start browsing

C．only when you have finished browsing

D．when you have determined your choice

4．Picking up books that vaguely interest you can be dangerous because ________.

[　　]

A．you may forget about the book you plan to buy

B．you have to give up the best-selling book

C．it make you break your appointment

D．it costs you too much money and time
