I often find myself drawn to books that explore rural settings. Here are a few books that I’ve
read and loved.
Rush Oh!
(by Shirley Barrett)
Rush 0h! is one of the most touching books I’ve read. It follows the Davidsons, a whaling
family from Wales. After the death of her mother, Mary Davidson has many worries: her five
siblings(兄弟姐妹) and caring for her father. The author Barrett’s exploration of this world and
her characters are bittersweet and humorous.
Questions of Travel
(by Michelle de Kretser)
Questions of Travel is a portrait of Ravi, a Sri Lankan refugee(难民) who flees to Australia
after his wife and son’s death, and Laura, a young woman who moves to London and back again.
The writing is beautiful and touching. Never before have I read Sydney brought so vividly to life.

Retired couple May Proctor, 71, and her husband Rod, 73, have transformed their garden into
a fairyland( 仙 境 ) themed light show for local kids to enjoy. May and Rod came up with the
concept last year but this time is to be the biggest display yet. The mystical ( 神秘的 ) garden is
open for children to walk through and upon entry they will find a “fairy world” filled with pizza
shops, very small shops and a magical forest. This year the home itself has been transformed
according to Alice in Wonderland.
May says she is a fairy fan and that the huge amount of decoration is worth it for the magic.
“I’ve always liked to make a bit of a magical garden, but this year I’ve just been excited.” she
said.“Especially it’s just magic at night, absolutely amazing.”
An ex-dinner lady, May Proctor, the native, said she and her husband never planned on doing
the light display this year. Then as autumn approached, the couple felt that they had to show
something. So they decided again to go on to create a light display.
The topic for this year’s fairy display—Fairy Lane in Wonderland—is inspired by the
mystical world of Lewis Carroll’s Alice in Wonderland.
Throughout the house and garden, visitors will go down a rabbit hole into a fantastic
kingdom. “Last year it was just outside, but this year it’s inside, and it’s just amazing,” May
explained.
“Outside, I’ve made my own fairies and they were hung with the flowers, so it looks like a real
Christmas fairyland. But inside, we’ve got some stage properties—so we’ve got a mirror with all
Alice in Wonderland features around it. The kids absolutely love it, but I only let ten to twelve inside
at a time due to the pandemic (流行病), where they can sit down and have their pictures taken.”
4. What can we know about May Proctor from Paragraph 1?
A. She lives in a fairy land.
B. She is familiar with Alice in Wonderland.
C. She has many small shops in the town.
D. She has many children and grandchildren.
5. How did May Proctor feel about the light display this year?
A. Satisfied. B. Regretful. C. Worried. D. Expected.
6. How can visitors go into the show place?
A. Walking through the house. B. Walking through the garden.
C. Going down a rabbit hole. D. Going through a magic mirror.
7. Why did May only allow several kids to get inside at a time?
A. The garden was really small.
B. She was concerned about their health.
C. The hole is too narrow to get into.
D. There were not many kids enjoying the display.
C
A new study, published in The Journal of Experimental Psychology, found that communication
interactions that included voice, like a phone call or video chat, created stronger social bonds than
communication through typing, like text messaging or email.
In the study, researchers used various experiments to gauge ( 测量) connectedness. In one,
they asked 200 people to make predictions about what it would be like to reconnect with an old
friend by email or by phone and then assigned people at random to do one or the other. Although
people predicted that a phone call would be more awkward, hearing someone’s voice actually
made the experience better. However, people who participated in the experiment reported that they
did form a significantly stronger bond with their old friend on the phone versus email, and they
did not feel more awkward.
In another experiment, the researchers had strangers connected by either texting, talking over
video chat, or talking using only audio(声音). They found that both forms of voice communication
— whether video or audio only — made the strangers feel significantly more connected than when
they communicated via text.
Sabrina Romanoff, a Harvard trained clinical psychologist based in New York City, says
people tend to text or email instead of calling because of convenience, as they see it as a controlled
form of communication where they can express thoughts without being disturbed.
Romanoff says that in reality, texting can make it hard to determine the true meaning behind
a conversation. A phone call is actually more convenient when considering the net effects of the
message. In face-to-face communication, people are able to gauge the meaning behind the content
more easily without thinking the endless possible meanings behind words and punctuation.
8. What is the purpose of the study?
A. To encourage people to let their fingers do the talking.
B. To introduce the effects of verbal and non-verbal communications.
C. To show the strengths and weaknesses of making phone calls.
D. To compare connectedness of communication through voice and typing.
