阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
The publication of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince pleases booksellers across China.The British and American editions were No.1 and No.3 separately on the sales chart of the Beijing Xidan Book Building last week. The book’s poster is highlighted and news about the book can often be heard on the radio.
Why is the book so attractive to children? With curiosity, I got a copy of “Harry Potter”.At first,I wanted to glance over it and made some criticisms(批评).But,out of expectation,I have been deeply attracted by the magic world. On the other hand,one can’t help asking:Where is our own “Harry Potter”?
The Chinese nation has a history of 5,000 years.With a vast market of youngsters, China did publish many books popular among children. However, why are the present works not as good as those imported(进口的)?
There come two major reasons:Firstly,quite a number of children’s books are of strong sense of teaching, and lack interest and entertainment. Children often have a feeling of being “educated”.No wonder they don’t like them.Secondly, children’s reading materials involving “idiom stories” and “Chinese talents’ stories”,though always in different covers,are usually much the same.Some books are plagiarized.The authors take words,ideas from someone else’s work.One knows the ending as early as in the beginning.In final analysis,the authors of the books seldom take children’s requirements into consideration.
As a matter of fact,each child has his own wonderful imagination.They hope to understand the world and nature.Similarly they have their own choices.They dislike similar stories.even if the stories are excellent.First-class reading for children should be very interesting,which contains knowledge and the essence(精髓)of national culture,which are presented in children’s language.
Market is a touchstone for products.The theory also holds true for cultural products.It is hoped that the authors of children’s books can learn something from the good market of “Harry Potter” and write out more and better books loved by children.
Our books have the following disadvantages EXCEPT that_______.
A.they have little sense of interest and entertainment
B.many of our books are of the same
C.our authors know what our children need
D.the authors didn’t pay much attention to the children’s tastes
What does the underlined word “plagiarized” mean in Chinese?
A.改编 B.杜撰 C.印刷 D. 剽窃
The reason why Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince is so popular is that____.
A.it opens a magic world for children
B.it has little sense of teaching
C.it is only written in children’s language
D.it is advertised more on TV or poster
What does the writer mean by writing “Where is our own Harry Potter”?
A.We Chinese produce more books than other countries.
B.We are short of books for children and adults.
C.Our authors are expected to make the market of children’s books take off.
D.Authors should write books named “Harry Potter”.
查看习题详情和答案>>Iceland is a popular European tourist destination. Before you go there, it is good to learn some of the basic Iceland customs first.
Just like other countries in Europe, it is one of the customs in Iceland to shake hands and say “Hello”. Kissing each other’s cheeks is acceptable along with wishing each other a happy day.
Another custom is to take off your shoes in the hallway(走廊) when you enter someone’s home. Also, don’t be surprised if someone invites you to their house, since Icelanders love to have guests. Just make sure you take flowers or a similar token of thanks to give them.
If you have been invited to eat, keep in mind that you don’t need to express thanks before meals like the French or the Japanese. Rather, eat heartily and then thank your host afterwards by shaking his hand.
Keep in mind that believing in mysterious beings is part of the tradition in Iceland. Indeed, most of the unique and sometimes strange rock formations in Iceland are due to elves(小精灵), according to the people of Iceland.
Are you planning to spend Christmas in Iceland? If so, make sure you practice saying “Gleileg jol got tog fars!” first, which is the local Christmas greeting. It is part of the tradition in Iceland to have long Christmas holidays—26 days—longer than in any other European country. There are 13 Santa Clauses in Iceland, too!
There may not be a law requiring you to follow the customs, but there is no harm in doing so. Following them, you might be rewarded with a rich cultural experience and a more meaningful trip.
