17.Summer Rain
 The worst days of any summer are the rainy ones.We spend all year looking forward to nice weather and long,hot days.All of winter,with its cloudy days and bitter cold,we dream of those endless days at the beach,lying on the sand and enjoying the bright and burning sun.And then,summer comes,and it rains.
 As a child,I would wake up to rainy summer days and come close to crying.It wasn't fair.We suffered through months of school and experienced bad weather for those short ten weeks of freedom and pleasant weather.
 On those rainy summer days,I had nothing fun to do and could only sit inside,staring out at the rain like a bird in a cage.I was an only child,so there was no one else to play with.My father worked from home,so I was not truly alone,but he could not actively play with me since he was at work.It was those days that I would watch whatever was on television or read any books that I could find lying around.I'd drag through the day and pray each night that the rain would not be there the next day.
 As an adult,though,my opinion of summer rain has changed.When you have to work every day,summer is not as exciting.Everything seems dull.Such a mindset makes you cheer for anything new or different.I spend the winter dreaming of summer and the summer dreaming of winter.When summer comes,I hate how hot it is.And then I look forward to the rain,because the rain brings with it a cold front,which makes me comfortable.Rainy days are still the worst days of the summer,but summer rain today means positively beautiful-and considerably cooler-weather tomorrow.

2.This brief book is aimed at high school students,but speaks to anyone learning at any stage of life.
    Its formal,serious style closely matches its content,a school-masterly book on schooling.The author,W.H.Armstrong,starts with the basics:reading and writing.In his opinion,reading doesn't just mean recognizing each word on the page; it means taking in the information,digesting it and incorporating it into oneself just as one digests a sandwich and makes it a part of himself.The goal is to bring the information back to life,not just to treat it as dead facts on paper from dead trees.Reading and writing cannot be completely separated from each other; in fact,the aim of reading is to express the information you have got from the text.I've seen it again and again:someone who can't express an idea after reading a text is just as ineffective as someone who hasn't read it at all.
    Only a third of the book remains after that discussion,which Armstrong devotes to specific tips for studying languages,math,science and history.He generally handles  these  topics  thoroughly (透彻地)  and  equally,except  for  some weakness in the science and math sections and a bit too much passion (激情) regarding history.Well,he was a history teacher-if conveyed only a tenth of his passion to his students,that was a hundred times more than my history teachers ever got across.To my disappointment,in this part of the book he ignores the arts.As a matter of fact,they demand all the concentration and study that math and science do,though the study differs slightly in kind.Although it's commonly believed that the arts can only be naturally acquired,actually,learning the arts is no more natural than learning French or mathematics.My other comment is that the text aged.The first edition apparently dates to the 1960s-none of the references(参考文献) seem newer than the late 1950s.As a result,the discussion misses the entire computer age.
    These are small points,though,and don't affect the main discussion.I recommend it to any student and any teacher,including the self-taught student.

63.According to Armstrong,the goal of reading is toC.
A.gain knowledge and expand one's view
B.understand the meaning between the lines
C.express ideas based on what one has read
D.get information and keep it alive in memory
64.The author of the passage insists that learning the artsA.
A.requires great efforts
B.demands real passion
C.is less natural than learning maths
D.is as natural as learning a language
65.What is a shortcoming of Armstrong's work according to the author?D
A.Some ideas are slightly contradictory.
B.There is too much discussion on studying science.
C.The style is too serious.
D.It lacks new information.
66.This passage can be classified asB.
A.an advertisement     B.a book review
C.a feature story       D.a news report.
