13．Twelve-year-old Leonardo was born in a poor family in Bambamarca in Peru．He knew
how to read but he had never seen a book in his life．So he asked the new priest（牧师）in his village to give him  one．But there was no electricity．So Leonardo borrowed candles from the church and sat up  all night reading it．The next morning，he was at the door of the priest asking for another book to read．
John Medcalf，the priest，was moved．He also realised that people would love to read if given a chance．But  he knew how difficult it was for Leonardo and those in his village to get books．And yet，no one can be taught to read and write without books．To make people in a poor，faraway area  grow to love books，they have to be with them．So he thought the only way was to bring books to people．
But how could  this be done？Mobile libraries or car libraries would be too expensive and difficult to  continue in the rocky，hilly land of Peru．So what other method could be used？
M-call got a new idea from the barefoot（赤脚）doctors of China．And that was how
the barefoot  librarians（图书管理员）first appeared in the villages of northern Peru，almost thirty years ago．
The librarian s began by going from village to village，lending books to villagers．They helped start The 12ura1Library Network of Peru．
At first，they were teachers of the village schools which these faraway libraries belonged to．But the teachers were not very interested in the job because it meant a lot of hat work．
So，villagee lders took on the job themselves．
Today，th ere are 600village libraries across Peru．The barefoot librarians who walk up to 15 hours a day with bags of books are their lifeline．
38．The first paragraph tells us that LeonardoD
A．had a lot of books

39．The underlined word"this"in Paragraph 3probably refers to（指）B

D．to build a new library
40．The passage doesn't mentionC
A，when the barefoot librarians appeared

10．阅读下面短文，按要求完成各项任务．（共8分）
Where is the true home of hamburger？
The kind of beef we see in hamburgers，minced（切碎）beef，was possibly invented by Mongolians over 800years ago．But who first put the beef between pieces of bread and called it a hamburger？Three different cities in the United States all say that they were the first to invent America’s favorite food．
Some people say that Fletcher Davis，from Athens，invented hamburgers．“Old Dave，”as people called him，was selling minced beef sandwiches in his lunch bar as early as the 1880s．Some years later，they say that a group of Germans called①his sandwich a“hamburger”because people from the German city of Hamburger ate this kind of beef．
Other people believe that the hamburger came from a different American city．②coincidentally，its name was also Hamburg．The Menches brothers were selling pork sandwiches at a fair in 1885，but when there was no more pork，they used minced beef and gave it a new name，the“hamburger”．
The third possible inventor of the hamburger was Charlie Nagreen，also known as“Hamburger Charlie，”from Seymour．He said that in 1885he invented the world’s first hamburgers．Seymour now celebrates the invention of the hamburger every year．In 1989，it was the home of the world’s largest ever burger-over 2，500kg!

9．Dear Alan，
Guess what？I have a chance to choose my new place to live in!I’m excited and a little nervous．Could you please give me some help？
I’m not sure whether I will live in a house or in an apartment．On the one hand，a house will be too big for just one person，so maybe I should rent an apartment．On the other hand，if I rent a house，I could find someone else to share with me．The only problem is that a house full of people might be too noisy for me．I prefer to have my own space．The city has some nice apartments，but they are also too expensive．However，if I could find a two-bedroom apartment and get a roommate，that would make it more affordable．I just need to search for a roommate who is neat and quiet．You know I can’t live with someone who is loud and messy．I don’t have a car，so I also need to think carefully about the location．I probably need to look for somewhere near a bus stop or an underground station．That way I will have more time to study and spend less time travelling．．
I’m looking forward to your reply．
Love，Victor
