He bought so many that he didn’t look very 1 at the books. When he arrived home, he 2 he had bought a very strange handwritten manuscript (手写稿). It was written 3 a language he had never seen before. It was also full of pictures of plants. Since then, the book — now known as the Voynich Manuscript — has 4 the world’s most mysterious (神秘的) manuscript. Many people have studied it. However, no one has ever discovered its meaning and 5 . There are many ideas about 6 wrote it and why. Some say that a famous scientist like Francis Bacon wrote it. Some think it could be a religious (宗教的) text. Others think the manuscript is a hoax (骗局) and 7 nothing at all. Scientists have learned that the manuscript was made between 1404 and 1438. However, this only tells us how 8 the paper is, not when the book was written. But there’s still hope. After all, the manuscript is real and there’s meaning to its words. The Voynich Manuscript remains a mystery today. You can go online to find it 9 you would like to know the truth. Are you 10 in it?

I was happy to obey, and quickly invented stories full of imaginary creatures in complex plots (复杂情节) intended to convey some important lessons about patience or hard work or being kind to others. But my daughter was not pleased. She had very particular ideas about what her bedtime stories should be about. She wanted stories about a little girl planning a birthday party. A human girl. A human girl about her age. And what fascinated her were the ordinary details: the theme for the party, the place, who was invited, and (most importantly) what they had for dessert. It turns out my daughter is not alone. In a study, 4-year-old children were read a story about sharing that featured either human characters or animals. Both before and after the story, children had the chance to share stickers with other children. On average, children who heard the story featuring a human who shared increased the number of stickers they shared, while those who heard the story featuring an animal that shared did not. The findings from the study support the idea that young children have an easier time exploring what they learn from a fictional storybook to the real world when the storybook is realistic. The leap from an unreal human to a real one is simply smaller than the leap from a raccoon (浣熊) to a human. But it could be that as children grower, they become better at making these leaps, that parents can help them make the leaps more readily. I found that encouraging 5-and 6-year-old children to explain key events in a storybook made them better at removing the moral of the story and then applying it to a real-world problem. If the theory in our paper is right, this should help children relate the unrealistic aspects of the story to what they know about the real world, and thus appreciate the patterns that hold across both the fictional world of the story and the real world around them. 1．By telling her daughter’s story, the writer suggests children ________. A．prefer the factual to the fantastical B．take their birthday party seriously C．demand more from their parents D．prepare for their birthday party well 2．The underlined words “the leaps” in Paragraph 5 mean ________. A．the ability of exploring a fictional storybook B．the adaptation to the realistic world C．the procession from the story to the reality D．the identification of fictional human 3．How did the writer help the children learn the story moral? A．By encouraging children to act as the characters in stories. B．By encouraging children to imagine the fictional world. C．By encouraging children to appreciate the real world. D．By encouraging children to explain important events. 4．Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A．Realism Has Advantages in Children’s Storybooks B. Children Prefer Realistic Stories to Moral Lessons C．Storybooks About Animals Teach Children More D．Storybooks Make Children Easily Adapt to Society 【答案】1．A 2．C 3．D 4．A 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了在儿童的故事书中，具有现实主义色彩的故事比不切实际虚构的故事更加具有意义。 1．推理判断题。作者在第一段和第二段中，描写了女儿想要作者讲述的故事，应该是真实人物的，而不是那些虚拟的动物故事，说明了孩子们喜欢阅读那些真实性的，而不是虚构的故事。故选A。 2．词句猜测题。根据“young children have an easier time exploring what they learn from a fictional storybook to the real world when the storybook is realistic. The leap from an unreal human to a real one is simply smaller than the leap from a raccoon to a human.”可知，当故事书是真实的时，小孩更容易将他们从虚构的故事书中学到的东西探索到现实世界。此处的“The leap”指的是从虚构的故事到现实的转变。故选C。 3．细节理解题。根据最后一段“I found that encouraging 5-and 6-year-old children to explain key events in a storybook made them better at removing the moral of the story and then applying it to a real-world problem.”可知，让孩子们叙述故事中的重要事件，更容易帮助他们理解故事中的道理。故选D。 4．最佳标题题。本文主要介绍了孩子们更喜欢阅读真实人类的故事书，而不喜欢那些虚构的带有生活道理的拟人化的书。现实生活化的故事书让孩子们更加容易把书中的道理应用到现实中来。选项A“现实主义在儿童故事书中有优势”可作为最佳标题。故选A。 Read and Explore The actor Christopher Reeve is best known as the star of four Superman movies. However, something terrible happened to him on May 27, 1995. His head landed first and badly hurt when he was thrown from his horse in an accident. Reeve’s life was saved by doctors, but the fighting against his hard life was just beginning, as the actor would never be able to feel anything below his neck, breathe without help from a machine or do any physical activity on his own again. During this time, Reeve felt like he had lost all hope. He wished that he was dead and even thought of ending his own life. It was only because of the support of his wife, family and friends that he found the hope and courage to live again. Reeve put his heart into learning everything he could about his injuries. He took lots of exercises. Reeve never met his goal of getting back on his feet, but he made great progress. Shortly after, he managed to return to his film work by directing, producing and even starring in films. He also wrote a book about his experience and returned to his charity work. Reeve became an energetic supporter for people with back injuries and disabilities, raising millions of dollars in support of medical research. “What I do is based on powers we all have inside us and you don’t have to be a ‘superman’ to do it.” His attitude encouraged many people who were stuck in illness. “With the progress of new medical research, I’m confident that people like me would be able to walk again one day. So you can see. I’m too busy with living to think of giving up!” His ten-year-long fighting came to an end on October 10, 2004, at the age of 52. His active performance for the disabled proved more superhuman than anything that could be dreamed up for the big screen. Tasks 1．When was Christopher Reeve thrown from his horse? _______________________________________________________ 2．Who helped him find the hope to live again? _______________________________________________________ 3．Did he get back on his feet finally? _______________________________________________________ 4．What charity work did he do? _______________________________________________________ 5． What do you think of Christopher?
