21、Time spent in a bookshop can be most enjoyable,whether you are a book lover or just go 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 is ,you can soon get lost in reading . You soon become attracted in some book or other,and usually it is only much later that you realize you have spent far too much time there and must rush off to keep some forgotten appointment(约会)-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. A music shop is very much like a bookshop.You can wander round such a place freely. If it is a good shop,no assistant will walk close to you with the greeting "Can I help you,sir?" You needn't buy anything you don't want. In a bookshop an assistant should stay in the background until you have finished reading.Then,and only then,are his services necessary.

Once, a medical student had to read a textbook which was far too expensive for him to buy. He couldn’t get it from the library and the only copy he could find was in a certain bookshop. Every afternoon, therefore, he would go along to the shop and read a little of the book at a time. One day, however, he was disappointed to find the book missing from its usual place. He was about to leave, when he noticed the owner of the shop beckoning to him. Expecting to be told off, he went towards him. To his surprise, the owner pointed to the book which was hidden in a corner. “I put it there in case someone else bought it!” he said, and left the delighted student to continue his reading.

【1】The author thinks that the assistant in a bookshop should .

A. keep asking customers what they need

B. greet customers pleasantly and warmly

C. help the readers to find the books they want

D. avoid bothering the customers when they are reading

【2】The underlined part “beckoning to” (Paragraph 3) probably means   .

A. waving to   B. keeping an eye on   C. shouting at   D. laughing at

【3】The owner of the bookshop was described as .

A. outgoing   B. helpful   C. selfish   D. strict

【4】The author told a story in the last paragraph to   .

A. show us an example of a good bookshop

B. tell us the importance of reading

C. attract customers into the bookshop

D. describe a poor student’s life

22、For Brian Shawl, a biochemist and biophysicist at Baylor University, using his mouth to explore a blackberry at breakfast was a light bulb moment. He saw an opportunity to create a new way for students with blindness to visualize complex molecular (分子的) structure.

Students with visual impairments (视力障碍) are often discouraged from taking part in chemistry and other sciences because they’re considered too dangerous for someone without eyesight. “This is a problem because chemistry is a central science. And if you keep kids out of chemistry, you keep them out of a deep understanding of many things,” says Shawl.

Chemistry require an understanding of the shape and function of thousands of proteins and other complex molecule. The most common method for introducing blind students to these microscopic forms is to create large hand-held models. “But you can’t carry around a baseball-sized model for every 3-D image in your book. You would need a pickup truck bigger than what they drive in Texas,” Shawl says.

Instead, Shawl and his research earn sought to create something much more convenient. They pulled the crystalline structure of nine proteins from the Protein Data Bank. For some models, they shaped that edible gelatin (食用明胶) into shapes the size of a peanut. To create even smaller copies, they turned to a type of nontoxic resin (树脂) commonly used in dental (牙科的) surgery. This material can be 3-D printed to make highly accurate models as small as a grain of rice.

The researchers blindfolded 281 college-age study participants, all of whom are sighted, and gave them each a protein model to feel in their mouth. They then offered the participants each of the nine protein models and asked the participants to feel them in their mouths and identify the original model. On average, participants could recall the models using their mouths with 85.6 percent accuracy. When asked to use their hands to identify proteins, the participants were accurate 84.8 percent of the time. The researchers then asked a different group of sighted participants to study a computer model of a protein using their vision and pick that model out of a collection of visual models of other proteins. They were able to correctly recall the protein 87.5 percent of the time.

Shawl says he can’t be too satisfied with the result. And he thinks that products like these models will encourage children with visual impairments to feel confident becoming involved with STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics ) from a young age. “As a chemistry teacher, I know clearly that it’s not that educators are mean, they just don’t know what to do—they don’t have the tools or the resource,” Shawl says. “The exclusion (排除) of blind kids in chemistry and STEM is going to be coming to an end.”

【1】What was Shawl inspired to do while tasting the blackberry?

A．To study how blind people explore their environment.

B．To analyze the black berry’s molecular structure in detail.

C．To create a new way to combine chemistry and other sciences.

D．To enable blind students to learn science with their mouths

【2】What does Shawl think of the current method of teaching blind students chemistry?

A．Interesting

B．Effective

C．Clumsy

D．Costly.

【3】What can we learn from the researchers’ experiment?

A．Mouths can really help us identify things.

B．Mouths are much less reliable than hands or eyes.

C．Participants need to be trained to feel things in their mouths.

D．Participants prefer to use hands and eyes rather than mouths.

【4】According to Shawl the models developed by his team will ________

A．help blind students understand educators

B．inspire blind students to create more models

C．change teachers’ attitude towards blind students

D．make STEM learning more accessible to blind students

23、   The world is witnessing the worst refugee crisis(难民危机) since World War II. Tens of thousands of people are fleeing civil war and unrest(动荡) to find new homes in Europe — sometimes with sad consequences(后果).

On Aug 27, Austrian officials found the dead bodies of 71 Syrian migrants(移民) in a deserted truck near Austrian-Hungarian border, just as European leaders were holding a meeting in Vienna to figure out how to deal with the refugee crisis. On the same day, 200 migrants were feared dead and 200 rescued as two boats packed with refugees sank off the coast of Libya, according to media reports.

The terms “migrant” and “refugee” are often used interchangeably. But there’s a big difference between them, says an article in the Atlantic magazine. Here is how the United Nations defines refugees:

“Refugees are persons fleeing armed conflict(武装冲突) or ill-treatment. Their situation is often so dangerous and intolerable that they cross national borders to search for safety in nearby countries. …These are people for whom denial(拒绝) of protection has possibly deadly consequences.”

Migrants, on the other hand, move mainly to improve their lives by finding work, or for education, family reunion or other reasons, said the agency.

Countries should offer refugees certain protections under their international treaty obligations(条约义务). This is why some states hesitate to admit those people who are fleeing unrest in their home countries.

When talking about refugee and immigration problems, many media outlets use “illegal immigrant”(非法移民). Critics say that it gives the impression that it’s the person that is illegal rather than their actions. The UN and the EU parliament have called for an end to the phrase, the BBC reported.

【1】The numbers mentioned in Para. 2 prove _____.

A.how serious the refugee crisis in Austria is

B.that it is the worst refugee crisis in the world

C.what sad consequences some refugees face

D.that the number of refugees is so large

【2】The differences between “refugee” and “migrant” are written with the purpose of _____.

A.defining the two words clearly

B.indicating why some states are not willing to admit refugees

C.showing that refugees are more than migrants

D.urging European countries to accept more refugees

【3】According to the text, “refugee” differs from “migrant” in that _____.

① they both cross national borders but with different purposes

② refugees are illegal while migrants are legal

③ refugees may face deadly consequences while migrants are relatively safe

④ refugees are treated badly while migrants are highly respected

A.①④ B.①③ C.②③④ D.①③④

【4】According to the text, what may be discussed in the next several paragraphs?

A.Explanations for “illegal immigrant”

B.Examples about the refugee crisis in Europe

C.Measures to offer refugee protections

D.Causes of the refugee crisis in Europe
