An idea that started in Seattle's public library has spread throughout America and
beyond.
The
concept
is
simple:
help
to
build
a
sense
of
community
in
a
city
by
getting
everyone to read the same book at the same time.
In
addition
to
encouraging
reading
as
a
pursuit
(
追求
)
to
be
enjoyed
by
all,
the
program
allows
strangers
to
communicate
by
discussing
the
book
on
the
bus,
as
well
as
promoting
reading as an experience to be shared in families and schools.
The idea came from Seattle librarian Nancy Pearl who launched (
发起）
the
Seattle
Read
the
Same
Book

project
in
1998.
Her
original
program
used
author
visits,
study guides and book discussion groups to bring people together with a book, but
the idea has since expanded to many other American cities, and even to Hong Kong.
In
Chicago,
the
mayor(
市长）
appeared
on
television
to
announce
the
choice
of
To
Kill
a Mockingbird as the first book in the
reading clubs and neighborhood groups sprang up around the city.
Across
the
US,
stories
emerged
of
parents
and
children
reading
to
each
other
at
night
and strangers chatting away on the bus about plot and character.
The
only
problem
arose
in
New
York
,
where
local
readers
could
not
decide
on
one
book
to represent the huge and diverse population. This may show that the idea works best
in medium-sized cities or large towns, where a greater sense of unity(
一致）
can be
achieved .Or it may show that New Yorkers rather missed the point ,putting all their
energy and passion into the choice of the book rather than discussion about a book
itself.
As Nancy points out , the level of success is not measured by how many people read
a book, but by how many people are enriched by the process. or have enjoyed speaking
to someone with whom they would not otherwise have shared a word.
48. What is the purpose of the project launched by Nancy?
A. To invite authors to guide readers.
B. To encourage people to read and share.
C. To involve people in community service.
D. To promote the friendship between cities.
49. Why was it difficult for New Yorkers to carry out the project?
A. They had little interest in reading.
B. They were too busy to read a book.
C. They came from many different backgrounds
D. They lacked support from the local government
50. According to the passage, where would the project be more easily carried out?
A. In large communities with little sense of unity
B. In large cities where libraries are far from home
C. In medium-sized cities with a diverse population
D. In large towns where agreement can be quickly reached
underlined words “shared a word” in Paragraph 7 probably mean

A. exchanged ideas with each other
B. discussed the meaning of a word
C. gained life experience
D. used the same language
52. According to Nancy, the degree of success of the project is judged by
A. the careful selection of a proper book
B. the growing popularity of the writers
C. the number of people who benefit from reading.
D. the number of books that each person reads.

When we talk about a bad man, we like to call him a “wolf”.
But is it really true
that the wolf stands for devil and ugliness.

Have you read the book “The Wolf Totem” by a famous writer Jiang Rong, which tells
the story of the relationship between wolves and human beings? Have you ever

21
the wolves' world? If you had, you would

22
the wolves.

In the book, wolves are heroes on the large grassland. They know more about

23
than humans. They can attack lambs without disturbing their mothers. They also
know how to

24
full use of the shape of land to

25
sheep. I believe
that if wolves were humans, they would be

26
experts good at fighting.

The wolf is a kind of special creature that can deeply understand

27
.Each
wolf serves its group with its heart and soul. A

28
wolf has little power,
but a pack of wolves

29
nothing. All the wolves obey the rules.

30

they
are
defeated,
they
run
away
together.
It
is
their
teamwork

31

makes
wolves
powerful.

The wolves also have great self-respect and won't

32
to anyone. The writer,
who
wrote
the
book
“The
Wolf
Totem”,

33

stole
a
one-month-old
baby
wolf
and
raised it very carefully. To his

34
,he found the little wolf still wanted
to go back with

35
wolves. He bit through the iron chain that limited him.
The
wolf
was

36

and
he
never
gave
in,
fighting

37

his
death.
The
little
wolf died as a glorious fighter.

I
was
shocked
by
this
kind
of

38
:wolves
are
one
of
the
most
respected
creatures
on
earth.
I
want
everyone
to
look
at
wolves
in
a

39

way.
They
are
our
teachers.
They show us how to survive and

40
in this not simple and dangerous world.
Please honor the wolves, please honor all these heroes of nature!
