24、Books can be a best friend. But nowadays not many people enjoy reading books , and most people don’t start to read until they have the time. Do you know how to enjoy reading books?

You’ll have to decide where to find a book first. Look for books in a library or a big bookstore. You can also ask friends or borrow books from them if you can check out their books.

If you find a good book, just sit in a comfortable chair or sofa and begin reading. Be sure to sit comfortably, or you will get tired soon. It will help you a lot to sit comfortably while reading.

The environment for reading is important, too. It has to be quiet, so that you can be calm before you begin to read. If there is too much noise, it’s not good for you to read.

When you start to read, don’t think about anything else, but what you’re reading. Put yourself into the story. If you read carefully, it will be difficult to put the book down.

Read and really enjoy it. Reading is not running your eyes over a book. But if you need to, read out the book fast, then you do not need to pay attention to every word. Just read and enjoy the book.

26、   Audio Texts Signal Rise of New Literacy

Many people read physical books or e-books, but now there is a new trend—listening to audiobooks（有声读物）.

According to a recent report by the Chinese Academy of Press and Publication（CAPP）, more people are choosing to listen to audiobooks these days.

To be specific, 26 percent of adults listened to audiobooks in 2018, which was 3. 2 percentage higher than that in 2017.

Young people have been the main driver in the development of audiobooks. Some 26.2 percent of teenagers listened to audiobooks in 2018, which was 3. 5 percent higher than that in 2017.  Ximalaya noted that the value of audiobook purchases made by those aged 13 to 18 in 2018 increased by 330 percent over that of 2017, the Beijing Evening News reported.

One of the reasons that audiobooks are becoming increasingly popular is that people want to get more use out of their free time, China News Service reported. Listening to e-books frees up time for them, whether they are at the gym, on a bus, or in bed. Faster internet speeds mean that a book can be downloaded in seconds, according to Wei Yushan, director of CAPP.

Listening to audiobooks also helps with loneliness.“When I feel bored or lonely, listening to audiobooks makes me feel that there is someone accompanying（陪伴）me, ”Zhong Yan, an office worker who is obsessed with audiobooks, told the Beijing Evening News.

However, audiobooks are still far from perfect.“Listening to audiobooks doesn't make you think in the way you do when you're reading a book. It's also likely that you will miss information while you listen, ”said Zhong.

Qiang Qiang, a primary student who often listens to audiobooks, shares this perspective: " Despite（即使；尽管）its convenience, audiobooks are less detailed than physical books you read, ”he told the Beijing Evening News.

Li Yini, assistant general manager of Baicaoyuan Bookstore in Wuxi, Jiangsu province, told Jiangnan Times that people who want a book with serious content should choose a paper book or e-book, but they can choose an audiobook if the content is easy to understand.

【1】What can we learn from the first four paragraphs?

A.Audiobooks have developed quickly in recent years.

B.Audiobooks are more popular than physical books in China.

C.Ximalaya is the first choice when people listen to audiobooks.

D.About half of young people in China listened to audiobooks in 2018.

【2】According to the article, people like to listen to e-books because—·

A.they are more convenient B.they are cheaper than paper books

C.they are more relaxing than physical books D.they provide people with a better reading experience

【3】The phrase “be obsessed with" in Paragraph 6 probably means“ ___________, , .

A.be doubtful about B.be interested in

C.be careful about D.be disappointed at

【4】What can we learn from Li Yini's words?

A.Audiobooks are less detailed than physical books.

B.People should choose a book form based on its content.

C.People think differently when they listen to audiobooks.

D.Physical bookstores face a big challenge from audiobooks.

27、   Many expressions that we use in American English come from novels. Today we will look at some of them from Lewis Carroll’s famous novel “Alice in Wonderland” in detail.

The story is about a young girl falling down a rabbit hole. When she finally lands, she finds herself in a strange world and meets some strange characters.

The first character Alice meets is the White Rabbit, who runs past her and says some strange words. Alice runs after him, and that is where her adventures begin.

In English, chasing a white rabbit means chasing an impossible clue and finding yourself in a misleading situation.

Then, as she runs after the rabbit, she falls down the rabbit hole into Wonderland.

To fall down the rabbit hole can mean to enter a situation which makes people feel puzzled. However, usually we use this expression to mean we get interested in something to the point of distractions(分神). It often happens by accident and is about something not that meaningful.

Later in the story, Alice meets the March Hare and the Hatter at a crazy tea party. Hares have long been thought to behave excitedly in March, which is their mating（交配）season. Scientifically, this may not be true. But to be mad as a March Hare means that someone is completely mad, or crazy. The expression mad as a Hatter also means to be completely crazy. Of the two, mad as a Hatter is more common.

Near the end of the story, Alice meets the Queen of Hearts. A woman who is called a Queen of Hearts likes controlling others and always tries to control everything and everyone around her.

【1】Which of the following situations best fits the expression “to fall down a rabbit hole”?

A.When Jack was sitting in the study, he got bored with the homework and felt sleepy.

B.When Sue turned On the TV, she chose to watch her favourite programme as usual.

C.When Jim was looking for a sport book online, he lost himself in reports on superstars.

D.When Lily was thinking about how to solve a math problem, she came up with a good idea.

【2】According to the passage, the expression “to be mad as a March Hare” .

A.describes how hares behave in March

B.shows hares’ characteristics in a funny way

C.is used more often than the expression mad as a Hatter

D.has the same meaning as the expression mad as a Hatter

【3】Which of the following characters wants others to obey his or her orders in every situation?

A.Alice. B.The March Hare. C.The Hatter. D.The Queen of  Hearts.

【4】The writer mainly wants to ________in this passage.

A.introduce a famous novel and its language style

B.introduce a famous writer Lewis Carroll and his novels

C.explain some English expressions from a famous novel

D.explain why many expressions in English come from novels
