It may surprise bookworms, but apparently masterpieces such as Jane Eyre are lacking in something ¡ª sound effects. An electronic-book firm is adding background noises and music to the works of Charlotte Bronte, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and William Shakespeare in the hope of attracting younger readers. In one example, a description of rain lashing against a window in a Sherlock Holmes story will be ¡°enhanced¡± with matching noises.

The first multimedia e-books ¡ª with sounds to accompany novels ¡ª will be available this Friday in the UK. The Booktrack releases are available to iPad users, with other tablet computer versions to follow. The concept is already in use in the U.S., where the classics come with added sound effects. Readers for example can hear the china cups chinking in Mr. Darcy¡¯s garden as they read Pride And Prejudice.

A story by Booker Prize winner Salman Rushdie will be released later in the year with a specially crafted orchestral score. Rushdie¡¯s story In The South will be released with a soundtrack provided by the New Zealand Symphony Orchestra.

The Power Of Six by Pittacus Lore, a novel for young adults, is one of the first to be tested with a soundtrack which builds in suspense in keeping with the plot. It works by timing the speed of each reader and the software measures the ¡°turning¡± of a page and moves the music or sounds along accordingly. It has been created by Booktrack which synchronizes (ʹͬ²½) music to each novel. It is funded by Peter Thiel, a co-founder of PayPal.

Mr. Thiel said, ¡°It¡¯s always exciting to witness the creation of a new form of media. The technology promises to captivate readers in a different way.¡±

However, they have been greeted with horror by traditionalists, who say the technology takes away the pleasure of having one¡¯s imagination stimulated by a story. They also raise the prospect (Ô¤ÆÚ) of having to ask an overly eager reader to turn their book down. David Nicholls, whose bestseller One Day was recently turned into a film starring Anne Hathaway, said, ¡°This sounds like the opposite of reading. It would be a distraction.¡±

1.What¡¯s the purpose of the electronic-book firm adding sound effects to masterpieces?

A. To add some creative factors to the e-books.

B. To arouse interest of the readers.

C. To satisfy the readers¡¯ great need.

D. To promote the technology progress.

2.Where was the idea that sounds are added to accompany novels first put forward?

A. Britain. B. Australia.

C. New Zealand. D. America.

3. The following should be done to make a soundtrack work, EXCEPT _________.

A. measuring how long each reader spends in reading

B. increasing the volume of the music or sounds

C. making out the reading speed

D. changing the music or sounds with pages turned

4. What¡¯s Mr. Thiel¡¯ attitude to the future of the new form of media?

A. Doubtful. B. Indifferent.

C. Hopeful. D. Pessimistic.

How to Improve Your Study Habits

Perhaps your are an average student with average intelligence. You do well enough in school, but you probably think you will never be a top student. 1. Yes, even students of average intelligence can be top students without additional work. Here are some tips for you:

1. Plan your time carefully. Make a list of your weekly tasks. Then make a schedule or chart of your time. Fill in committed time such as eating, sleeping, meetings, classes, etc. Then decide on good, regular times for studying. 2. It¡¯s important to set aside time for relaxation, hobbies, and entertainment as well. Furthermore, it will enable you to plan your activities so that you have adequate time for both work and play.

2. Find a good place to study. Choose one place for your study area. It may be a desk or a chair at home or in the school library, but it should be comfortable, and it should not have distractions. When you begin to work, you should be able to concentrate on the subject.

3. 3. Listening to what the teacher says in class means less work later. Sit where you can see and hear well. Take notes to help you remember what the teacher says.

4. Study regularly. 4. Review important points mentioned in class as well as points you remain confused about. If you review your notes and textbook regularly, the material will become more meaningful and you will remember it longer. Regular review leads to improved performances on test.

5. Develop a good attitude about tests. The purpose of a test is to show what you have learned about a subject. The world won¡¯t end if you don¡¯t pass a test, so don¡¯t worry excessively about a single test. Tests provide more than grades. 5.

A. Be volunteer to raise questions.

B. Make good use of your time in class.

C. Go over your notes as soon as you can after class.

D. Those who make the best of their time study with more ease.

E. They also let you know what you need to spend more time studying on.

F. Of course, studying shouldn¡¯t occupy all of the free time on the schedule.

G. This is not necessary the case, however. You can receive better grades if you want to.

Bamboo is one of the nature¡¯s most surprising plants. Many people call this plant a tree, but it is a kind of grass.

Like other kinds of grass, a bamboo plant may be cut very low to the ground, but it will grow back very quickly. A Japanese scientist recorded one bamboo plant that grew almost 1.5 meters in 24 hours! Bamboo grows almost everywhere in the world except Europe. There are more than 1,000 kinds of bamboo that grow around the world on both mountains and plains(ƽԭ).

Not all bamboo looks the same. Some bamboo plants are very thin. They may only grow to be a few centimeters wide while others may grow to more than 30 centimeters across. This plant also comes in different colors, from yellow to black to green.

Many Asian countries have been using bamboo for hundreds of years. They often use bamboo for building new buildings. As a matter of fact, the cables(ÉþË÷) that hold up the hanging bridge across the Min River in Sichuan are made of bamboo. The bridge has been in use for more than 1,000 years, and is still holding strong.

In Africa, engineers are teaching poor farmers how to find water using bamboo. These African countries need cheap ways to find water because they have no money, and their fields often die from no rain and no water. It seems that bamboo is one of the best things they can use. Bamboo pipes and drills(×ê) can help to make the poor thirsty fields to be watered.

1.How is bamboo like grass?

A. It is thin and easy to cut.

B. It grows everywhere.

C. It grows quickly after its cut short.

D. It is short and green.

2.The underlined sentence ¡°while others may grow to more than 30 centimeters across.¡± means ¡°Some other bamboo plants may grow to be very _______.¡±

A. short B. long C. thick D. tall

3.Why did the engineers teach the poor farmers in Africa to make use of bamboo?

A. Because it is cheap.

B. Because it is colorful.

C. Because it drills fast.

D. Because it is used by Asians.

4.Which of the following is NOT true?

A. There are many different kinds of bamboo with different colors.

B. Cables made of bamboo can last for over a thousand years.

C. Bamboo can be used for buildings, bridges and watering projects.
