It can be a family inheritance(继承)or it can be just to impress people around you about the fact that you are a person of culture. On the other hand. There are many persons who cannot afford to buy books,because some of them are quite expensive,but they usually go to libraries and spend hours reading something that interests them a lot, or just borrow books to read at home.‎ ‎ From my point of view,literature is very important in or lives from several points of view. For example,reading is a means of gaining culture and enriching our knowledge in different areas of activities. It can help us have a great imagination and it makes things easier when it comes to making compositions on different themes. It gives you the possibility to speak about science,even if you don’t wok in this field, or you can express your opinion about a political aspect, just because you have read something connected to that.‎ ‎ Secondly,literature offers us the possibility to enter the world of imagination, and to leave apart the real one for a couple of hours. We come to meet kings and queens many years ago,dream ‎ in the world of the rich or imagine how life will be in the future. Sometimes, we identify ourselves with the characters in the stories we read and they can give us some clues to solve our problems and how to react in certain circumstances.‎ ‎ To conclude, I would like to say that literature is the perfect means to enrich our culture,to express correctly and have a rich vocabulary, to be able to interfere(干涉) in conversations in different fields of interest and to really be considered an erudite person.‎ ‎21.The people who are fond of literature are those that_______.‎ ‎ A.go to libraries on weekends ‎ B.have much interest in reading ‎ C.keep many books in their studies ‎ D.buy expensive books in the bookstore ‎22. We can learn from the third paragraph that____________.‎ ‎ A.we can bring kings and queens back to life ‎ B.it is very good for us to stay alone for some hours ‎ C.we can make friends with the people in the stories ‎ D.what we read can be useful in our daily life ‎23.The underlined word“erudite”in the last paragraph probably means___________.‎ ‎ A.learned B.enthusiastic C.hard-working D.creative ‎24. What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage?‎ ‎ A.To tell readers how to read a book ‎ B.To explain the true meaning of reading ‎ C.To advise readers to like reading ‎ D.To tell readers who has the real passion for literature B ‎ If you could have one superpower ,what would it be?‎ ‎ Dreaming about whether you would want to read minds ,see through walls, or have superhuman strength may sound silly,but it actually gets to heart of what re-ally matters in your life.‎ Every day in our work,we are inspired by the people we meet doing extraordinary things to improve the world.‎ They have a different kind of superpower that all of us possess:the power to make a difference in the lives of others.‎ We’re not saying that everyone needs to contribute their lives to the poor, Your lives are busy enough doing homework,playing sports, making friends, seeking after your dreams. But we do think that you can live a more powerful life when you devote some of your time and energy to something much larger than yourself. Find an issue you are interested in and learn more. Volunteer or, if you can, contribute a little money to a cause. Whatever you do, don’t be a bystander. Ger involved. You may have the opportunity to make your biggest difference when you’re older. But why not start now?‎ Our own experience working together on health, development,and energy the last twenty years has been one of the most rewarding parts of our lives. It has changed who we are and continues to fuel our optimism about how much the lives of the poorest people will improve in the years ahead.‎ ‎25..The answer to the question-in Paragraph 1 my reflect_________.‎ ‎ A.your life style B.your life value ‎ C.your trouble in life D.your life experience ‎26.Why does the author say they are inspired every day?‎ ‎ A.They possess different kinds of superpowers ‎ B.They have got the power to change the world ‎ C.Some people around them are making the world better.‎ ‎ D.There are many powerful people in their life and work ‎27.What should we do according to the passage?‎ ‎ A.Learn more and contribute more to a cause ‎ B.Rise above ourselves and act to help others ‎ C.Try our best to help the poor ‎28.Which is true according to the last paragraph?‎ ‎ A.The author believes the lives of the poorest will get better ‎ B.Much more progress will be made in the near future ‎ C.The work on health is the most valuable experience ‎ D.People’s efforts have been materially rewarded C ‎ Some people believe that a Robin Hood is at work, other that a wealthy person simply wants to distribute his or her fortune before dying. But the donator who started sending envelopes with cash to deserving causes,accompanied by an article from the local paper,has made a northern German city believe in fairytales(童话).‎ The first envelope was sent to a victim support group. It contained 10,000 with a cutting from the Braunschiveiger Zeitung about how the group supported a woman who was robbed of her handbag; similar plain white anonymous (匿名)envelopes,each containing 10,000,then arrived at a kindergarten and a church.‎ The envelopes keep coming, and so far at least 190,000 has been distributed. Last month,one of them was sent to the newspaper’s own office. It came after a story it published about Tom,a 14-year-old boy who was severely disabled in a swimming accident. The receptionist at the Braunschiveiger Zeitung opened an anonymous white envelope to find 20 notes of 500 inside with a copy of the article. The name of the family was underlined.‎ ‎“I was driving when I heard the news.” Claudia Neumann, the boy’s mother,told Der Spiegel magazine.“I had to park on the side of the road; I was speechless.”‎ The money will be used to make the entrance to their house wheelchair-accessible and for a course of treatment that their insurance company refused to pay for.‎ ‎“For someone to act so selflessly, for this to happen in such a society in which everyone thinks of himself, was astonishing,” Mrs. Neumann said. Her family wonder whether the donator is a Robin Hood character, taking from banks to give to the needy.‎ Henning Noske,the editor of the Braunschiveiger Zeitung, said:“Maybe it is an old person who is about to die. We just to not know.” However,he has told his reporters not to look for the city’s hero,for fear that discovery may stop the donations.‎ ‎29.The Braunschiveiger Zeitung is the name of ________.‎ ‎ A.a church B.a bank C.a newspaper D.a magazine ‎30.Which of the following is TRUE about the donation to Tom?‎ ‎ A.The donation amounted to 190,000‎ ‎ B.The donation was sent directly to his house ‎ C.The money will be used for his education ‎ D.His mother felt astonished at the donation ‎31. It can be inferred from the passage that___________.‎ ‎ A.the donator is a rich old man ‎ B.the donation will continue to come ‎ C.the donation comes from the newspaper ‎ D.the donator will soon be found out ‎32. What would be the best title for the passage?‎ ‎ A.Money Is Raised by the Newspaper.‎ ‎ B.Newspaper Distributes Money to the Needy.‎ ‎ C.Unknown Hero Spreads Love in Envelopes ‎ D.Robin Hood Returns to the City Welcome to Our Festival ‎ March 7 2016‎ Story Show in Oheron Adults ‎8:00pm – 10:00 pm Join in us for an evening of true,personal stories about science.Come to the only show where ‎ you can hear people-------scientists,not—scientists,and half—scientists----tell funny and touching stories about the role of science in their lives.‎ ‎ Cost:$10‎ ‎ Make Your Own iPhone Case through Toysinbox 3D Printing ‎ Families﹠ Teens ﹠Adults ‎ 10:00 am---12:30 pm ‎ In this workshop, you will learn to design and 3Dprint your own iPhone Case.First,you will learn how to use a 3D printer.
