     Time spent in a bookshop can be most enjoyable, whether you are a book-lover or merely you are there
to buy a book as a present. You may even have entered the shop just to find shelter from a sudden shower.
Whatever the reason, you can soon become totally unaware of your surroundings. You soon become engrossed
in some book or other, and usually it is only much later that you realise you have spent far too much time there
and must dash off to keep some forgotten appointment-without buying a book, of course.
     This opportunity to escape the realities of everyday life is, I think, the main attraction of a bookshop. There
are not many places where it is possible to do this. You can wander round such places to your heart's content.
If it is a good shop, no assistant will disturb you with usual greetings,"Can I help you, sir?" Of course you may
want to find out where a particular section is. Then, and only then, are his services necessary. However, when
he has led you there, the assistant should retire carefully and look as if he is not interested in selling a single
book.
     You have to be careful not to be attracted by the variety of books in a bookshop. It is very easy to enter the
shop looking for a book on ancient coins and to come out carrying a copy of the latest best-selling novel. This
sort of thing can be very dangerous. Apart from running up a huge account, you can waste a great deal of time
wandering from section to section.
1. Which may not be included in the writer's experiences while he is in a bookshop?
A. Getting relaxed without buying a book.
B. Quarrelling with the shop assistant.
C. Buying other books instead of those he wanted.
D. Forgetting some important appointment.
2. What does the writer mean by saying "time spent in a bookshop can be most enjoyable"?
A. You may free yourself from the real life.
B. Reading is free of charge there.
C. There is nobody disturbing you there.
D. You can enter without any certain reason.
3. What does the underlined word engrossed most probably mean in the first paragraph?
A. Lost.
B. Forbidden.
C. Puzzled.
D. Impressed.
4. The writer wrote the passage in order to _____.
A. suggest a good way of running a bookshop
B. encourage people to do some reading in bookshops
C. share his experience in bookshops
D. give some advice on buying books in a bookshop
