To the book lovers, nothing beats walking through a bookshop and looking at all the covers, picking

large heavy books up and turning them over, the smell of ink on paper, conversations with strangers about

authors. With the coming of the online book buying and e-books, many have predicted(预测) that the

bookstores will disappear. And we’re grateful that there are plenty of beautiful bookstores still out there.

El Ateneo Grand Splendid

Designed for Max Glucksmann, a pioneer of the music and film industries, this wonderful theater

space was opened in 1919. The former theater now serves as a flagship store; more than 1 million people

visit El Ateneo Grand Splendid every year.

The Book Barge

The Book Barge is a 60-foot canal boat bookshop. Inspired by the Slow Food movement, the operator

Sarah Henshaw says, “We hope to help develop a less hurried lifestyle of leisurely pleasures, cups of tea,

conversations, culture and something like these.”

Selexyz Dominicanen

For those who regard bookstores with great respect, welcome to Selexyz Dominicanen, which now

offers many kinds of books. The big space was used to store bicycles not long ago. But then the building

was given interior (内部的) decoration, and the result is really a great surprise.

La Caverne aux Livres

Few things make as romantic a pairing as books and trains. At La Caverne aux Livres in Auvers-sur-

Oise, northwestern of Paris, an old postal train station and several train cars have become home to used

books for sale. Visitors often spend hours looking at them, surrounded by an atmosphere (氛围) of old

letters and dreams of faraway places.

A. Getting certain experiences. B. Having many more choices.

C. Getting the best service. D. Finding the latest bestsellers.

22. Which of the following encourages a slow lifestyle?

A. El Ateneo Grand Splendid. B. La Caverne aux Livres.

C. The Book Barge. D. Selexyz Dominicanen.

Mr. Harris used to work in Dover, but then he changed his work, and he and his wife moved to

another town. They did not have many friends there, but they soon met a lot of interesting people, and after

a few weeks, they often went to dinner or to parties at other people’s houses.

Then Mrs. Harris said to her husband, “We’ve been to a lot of other people’s houses, and now we must

invite them to our house, mustn’t we?”

“Yes, certainly,” answered her husband, “A big party will be the easiest thing, won’t it? Then we can

start to invite people to dinner in small numbers next month.”

So Mrs. Harris said, “Yes, I’ll invite all our friends here to a big party on 5th December.”

“How many will that be?” Mr. Harris asked. “Don’t invite too many.”

Mrs. Harris was beginning to write the invitations when her husband saw that she was writing, “Party:

6:30 to 8:30 p.m.”

“That isn’t very nice, is it?” he said. “You’re telling our guests that they must go at 8:30.” So Mrs.

Harris just wrote “Party: 6:30 p.m.”

A lot of guests came, and they all had a good time, so they did not go home at 8:30. In fact they were

still there at mid-night when the door bell rang and a policeman arrived. He said, “You must stop making a

noise, because someone has complained(抱怨).”

Mr. Harris said he did not want to quarrel with the policeman, so everyone went home. They were

sorry to have to go.

When Mr. and Mrs. Harris were alone again, she said to him. “That was a surprise, wasn’t it? Who

complained about the noise?”

“I did,” Mr Harris answered in a tired voice.

24．What made Mr. and Mrs. Harris hold a party at their house?

A．It was easy to hold a big party at home .B．They could ask people to dinner in small numbers.

C．They liked making friends with others. D．They had gone to other people’s parties many times.

25．How long would Mrs. Harris like the party to last?

A．From the morning till night. B．About fourteen hours.

C．Till midnight D．About two hours.

26．When did the party end that evening?

A．At about 8:30. B．About twelve o’clock.

C．When the policeman talked with Mr. Harris on the phone.

D．When someone telephoned the police station.

27．Why did Mr. Harris telephoned the policeman about the noise?

A．Because someone rang his door bell many times at mid-night.

B．His friends had a good time that night and also feel tired.

C．He did not want his friends to stay late that night.

D．Because he hated the noise.

Today, we are told that children don’t spend enough time in the fresh air. Many of them are addicted to

screen either on a computer or a TV. They seem to be living in a virtual (虚拟的)world and have lost touch

with nature.

But now 400 organizations in the UK, from playgroups to the National Health Service, are

encouraging children to have some “wide time”. They want kids to exchange at least 30 minutes of

watching TV or playing computer games for time playing outside. Activities such as building dens,

climbing trees and playing hide and seek are just some of the things kids can do. Even if they live in a city,

they can go on adventures in the garden or the park.

Children often need a helping hand from mum and dad. They need to be shown what to do and where

to go. Andy Simpson from National Health Service says, “We want parents to see what this magical wonder

product does for their kids’ development, independence and creativity, by trying a wild life.”
