【答案】
【1】C
【2】G
【3】F
【4】E
【5】A
【解析】
【1】C 阅读后文可知But it never lets you know, because, you keep it busy thinking about your friends or favorite stars中的代词it指代mind. 而前文只提到“肚子饥饿”,所以在这一空白处的句子应承上启下。对比选项发现C选项Just like your stomach, your mind is also hungry不仅和上文内容紧密连接,其中的mind也和后文的it对应,符合语境。故选C。
【2】G 分析前文可知人们不仅会肚子饥饿,精神也会饥饿。后文Since it develops other aspects of our life, we have to take help from reading说明了阅读对人们精神思想的好处。对比选项发现G选项Hunger of the mind can be actually solved through wide reading符合语境,故选G。
【3】F 分析后文Now this seed is unknowingly used by you to develop new ideas,对比选项发现F选项The interesting part of the book is stored in your mind as a seed形成对应关系,且F选项中的The interesting part of the book与前文Once you read a book;your mind tries to explain something to you等信息也形成对应关系。F选项符合语境,故选F。
【4】E 分析前文可知阅读的好处是培养创造力,而后文Within no time you can start talking with your friends in English or any other language and never run out of the right words又阐述了阅读的另一个好处,即增加词汇量,使得和别人聊天更顺畅。对比选项发现E选项中的also正暗示了后文的阅读的好处。其次,contribution to your vocabulary也是后文内容的体现。结合此处的语境,故选E。
【5】A 根据后文Go and get a book可知作者对读者发起了一个具体行动的建议。对比选项发现A选项Now what are you waiting for?“现在你还等什么呢?”符合语境,故选A。
