People are often surprised by my fear of blood and needles. Working in a public health unit, I probably have

more daily interaction with syringes (注射器) than the average person. But the truth is, having my blood drawn

scares me.

When I was 9, I had an extremely high temperature. A nurse rudely stuck the needle into my arm, causing a

sharp pain. I avoided having blood taken from my body for the next years. A few months before I turned 30, my

doctor ordered a blood test as part of my physical exam. I panicked. Sensing my fear, she gently suggested I see a

psychiatrist (精神科医生). “Dr. M helped my other patients with the same fear,” she said.

When Dr. M called to set up an appointment, I hesitated. Talking about personal problems to a medically

licensed stranger was uncommon in my family. “A psychiatrist?” Mother asked. “He’ll just put you on drugs.

Can’t you get over this yourself?” I almost listened. But I went to Dr. M’s clinic finally. “Phobias ( 恐惧症) are

pretty easy to treat,” he said. I wasn’t convinced of his words. But despite my doubts, I was running out of options.

We started with basic exposure treatment. I watched videos of blood being drawn every day. As I started to

feel more at ease with needles, Dr. M suggested drawing blood. As he gently pressed the needle into my flesh, I

felt dizzy and breathed deeply. After a few minutes, I looked at the needle. It wasn’t so bad. I didn’t pass out.

“You’re doing well,” Dr. M said.

I still find it unpleasant getting blood drawn, but thanks to several months of treatment, I’m less scared. I hate

to admit it, but Dr. M is right — phobias can be treated. Sometimes, we have to leave our comfort zone and face

our fears. And this can lead to freedom in the end.

4. What caused the author’s phobia?

A. Her sensitivity to pains. B. Her bad medical experience.

C. Her anxiety about the blood test. D. Her regular contact with syringes.

5. What was the author’s mother’s attitude toward her appointment with Dr. M?

A.Objective. B. Disapproving. C. Supportive. D. Conservative.

6. What can we know about the author’s treatment?

A. It cost the author a great deal of money. B. It eased the author’s pain totally.

C. It was smoother than expected. D. It centered on watching videos.

7. Which can be a suitable title for the text?

A. Bravery brings us a happier life B. Ups and downs make one strong

C. Walk toward what scares us D. Nurse our mental health carefully

Book clubs are no longer limited to living rooms, and bookstores offer much more than just books with a new

opening up for gatherings centered around reading.

When entering Hearthfire Books and Treats in Evergreen, shoppers are greeted by a bright green wall of

frozen yogurt machines and a topping bar.

Owner Kappy Kling believes she has created more than just a store but a space for community. Kling sees

many bookstores modifying their business models to attract new customers. “Bookstores over the years, with

changes, have adapted by adding different things for engagement, especially smaller ones,” she said. “So for us,

the frozen yogurt was a big one of those.”

Hearthfire attracts a big afterschool crowd from the local schools, and Kling enjoys providing a safe place for

kids to hang out, have a snack and read.

Creating reading community is also a central focus at BookBar on Tennyson Street in Denver. Nearly nine

years ago, Nicole Sullivan was wishing she could have a book club meeting anywhere besides someone’s living

room, and from that thought, BookBar was born. The popular bookstore offers wine, coffee and small plates to

enjoy while leading and browsing books. Beyond just book club meetings, Sullivan says the shop sees a lot of

girls’ nights, professional meetings and remote work.

While he may not have changed his business model, Topp does devote much of his time to reading to his

customers. Topp founded Read Me a Story, Ink after reading to children in public schools for nearly 30 years. His

website features recordings of Topp reading stories aloud and over a thousand stories for others to read and

children can make comments and exchange opinions. He also has a podcast ( 播客) available on major platforms

that feature him reading stories fit for the classroom, bedtime and more.

8. What does the underlined word “one” in paragraph 3 probably refer to?

A.Model. B. Customer. C. Change. D. Thing.

A. Opening a reading club. B. Reading more books.

C. Setting up a reading website. D. Getting more collectable books.

10. What do the three bookstores have in common?

C. They’re changing their business model. D. They are trying to create reading community.

11. What is mainly talked about in the text?

A. Traditional bookstores are still popular. B. Bookstores focus on new ways to reach readers.

C. Book clubs are appearing in a new form. D. Many bookstores appear in the world.

It’s uncertain when many offices may reopen, but it’s clear the virtual work revolution that began with the

pandemic isn’t going away.

Alexia Cambon,research director at Gartner, says finding the right combination of in-person and virtual work

will take creativity and experimentation. Managing director Deborah Lovich stresses that companies should

consider that flexibility is not only about location, but also about the hours employees work.

Alexia also points out the importance of finding solutions for a whole team. “What COVID-19 taught us is

that flex work cannot be for an individual. It has to be for the team,” she says. “When the whole team is together

online versus a whole team together in person,it works.”

Progressive organizations are also reconsidering their workplace culture. “They’re thinking about changing

culture and leadership to be much more trust-based, impact-based, instead of input-based,like,I see you,so I think
