Passage1
The Power of Reading阅读的力量
Reading is a wonderful activity that can change our lives. It is not just a way to gain knowledge, but also a way to explore new worlds and understand different perspectives.
For many people, reading is a habit that starts in childhood. Parents and teachers often encourage children to read books. This early exposure to literature can spark a lifelong love for reading. As children grow, they can choose books that match their interests, whether it’s fantasy, science, or history.
Reading also has many benefits for mental health. It can reduce stress and improve focus. When we read, we enter a state of deep concentration, which helps us relax. Moreover, reading stories about other people’s experiences can increase our empathy and understanding of others.
In the digital age, there are more ways to read than ever before. E-books and audiobooks make reading accessible to everyone. However, some people still prefer the feel of a physical book. No matter the format, the important thing is to keep reading.
Many successful people credit their achievements to their reading habits. For example, Bill Gates reads about 50 books a year. He believes that reading is essential for learning and personal growth.
In conclusion, reading is a powerful tool that enriches our minds and hearts. It is a journey that never ends, and there is always something new to discover.
阅读是一项能改变人生的美好活动。它不仅是获取知识的途径,更是探索全新世界、理解多元视角的方式。
对许多人而言,阅读是从小养成的习惯。家长和老师常常鼓励孩子读书。幼年接触文学,能点燃人一生的阅读热爱。随着成长,孩子们可以挑选契合自身兴趣的书籍,无论是奇幻文学、科普读物,还是历史著作。
阅读对心理健康也大有裨益,既能舒缓压力,又能提升专注力。沉浸阅读时,我们会进入深度专注的状态,身心也随之放松。此外,品读他人的人生故事,还能培养同理心,让我们更懂得体谅和理解他人。
身处数字时代,阅读的方式比以往任何时候都更加丰富。电子书与有声书,让人人都能轻松阅读。但仍有不少人偏爱纸质书的触感。无论形式如何,坚持阅读才是关键。
许多成功人士都将自己的成就归功于阅读习惯。例如比尔・盖茨每年大约阅读 50 本书。他认为,阅读是学习与个人成长不可或缺的一部分。
总而言之,阅读是充实思想、丰盈心灵的强大力量。这是一场永无止境的旅程,总有新鲜事物等待我们去发现。

Passage1
Lucy Maud Montgomery is a great Canadian writer. Born in 1874 in Clifton, she led a life full of both joy and sadness.
When she was very young, her mother died because of illness. Her father couldn’t take care of her alone, so she went to live with her grandparents. Growing up, she often felt lonely without many friends of her age, but this helped her develop a strong imagination. At 6, she started school and began writing poems and keeping a diary.
In 1893, Montgomery attended Prince of Wales College to get a teaching license. She finished the two-year course in just one year. After that, she worked as a teacher while also writing short stories. In 1897, her first short story was published, and over the next 10 years, she published around 100 more.
The year 1908 was a turning point for Montgomery. She published Anne of Green Gables, a story about a girl without parents living in a small town. The book became very popular not only in Canada but also around the world. It made her a well-known writer.
However, Montgomery’s personal life wasn’t always easy. Her husband was in low spirits, and she faced many hard times during and after World War I. She even went to court because her publisher didn’t give her the money she deserved.
Although Montgomery faced so many challenges, she continued to write. She created many wonderful stories, including the Emily of New Moon series. She published 20 novels, over 500 short stories and more in her lifetime. Montgomery died in 1942, but her works are still loved by people all over the world. She is remembered as one of the greatest English-language writers.
1.According to Paragraph 2, what may have helped Montgomery start writing?
A.Her grandparents’ influence. B.Her childhood experiences.
C.Her friendships with other girls. D.Her college experiences.
2.Why is the year 1908 considered a “turning point” in Montgomery’s life?
A.She received her teaching license. B.She published her first short story.
C.She became well known as a writer. D.She started to suffer from depression.
3.Which of the following best describes Montgomery according to the passage?
A.Sad but rich. B.Lonely but helpful. C.Famous and lucky. D.Talented and strong.
【答案】1.B 2.C 3.D
1.第二段提到“Growing up, she often felt lonely without many friends of her age, but this helped her develop a strong imagination. At 6, she started school and began writing poems and keeping a diary”,说明蒙哥马利童年时没有同龄朋友,感到孤独,这帮助她培养了丰富的想象力,6岁开始上学并写诗和记日记,由此可知是她的童年经历帮助她开始写作。
2.第四段明确指出“The year 1908 was a turning point for Montgomery. She published Anne of Green Gables...The book became very popular...It made her a well-known writer”,说明1908年她因出版《绿山墙的安妮》而成为著名作家,因此是转折点。
3.蒙哥马利一生面临母亲早逝、孤独、丈夫情绪低落、官司等多重挑战,但她仍然坚持写作,出版了20部小说和500多篇短篇故事,说明她既有才华又坚强。

Several years passed. One day, Robinson found some people coming to the island. He saved a young man and named him Friday. From then on, Friday became his good helper.

The Power of Reading阅读的力量
Reading is a wonderful activity that can change our lives. It is not just a way to gain knowledge, but also a way to explore new worlds and understand different perspectives.
For many people, reading is a habit that starts in childhood. Parents and teachers often encourage children to read books. This early exposure to literature can spark a lifelong love for reading. As children grow, they can choose books that match their interests, whether it’s fantasy, science, or history.
Reading also has many benefits for mental health. It can reduce stress and improve focus. When we read, we enter a state of deep concentration, which helps us relax. Moreover, reading stories about other people’s experiences can increase our empathy and understanding of others.
In the digital age, there are more ways to read than ever before. E-books and audiobooks make reading accessible to everyone. However, some people still prefer the feel of a physical book. No matter the format, the important thing is to keep reading.
Many successful people credit their achievements to their reading habits. For example, Bill Gates reads about 50 books a year. He believes that reading is essential for learning and personal growth.
In conclusion, reading is a powerful tool that enriches our minds and hearts. It is a journey that never ends, and there is always something new to discover.
阅读是一项能改变人生的美好活动。它不仅是获取知识的途径,更是探索全新世界、理解多元视角的方式。
对许多人而言,阅读是从小养成的习惯。家长和老师常常鼓励孩子读书。幼年接触文学,能点燃人一生的阅读热爱。随着成长,孩子们可以挑选契合自身兴趣的书籍,无论是奇幻文学、科普读物,还是历史著作。
阅读对心理健康也大有裨益,既能舒缓压力,又能提升专注力。沉浸阅读时,我们会进入深度专注的状态,身心也随之放松。此外,品读他人的人生故事,还能培养同理心,让我们更懂得体谅和理解他人。
身处数字时代,阅读的方式比以往任何时候都更加丰富。电子书与有声书,让人人都能轻松阅读。但仍有不少人偏爱纸质书的触感。无论形式如何,坚持阅读才是关键。
许多成功人士都将自己的成就归功于阅读习惯。例如比尔・盖茨每年大约阅读 50 本书。他认为,阅读是学习与个人成长不可或缺的一部分。
总而言之,阅读是充实思想、丰盈心灵的强大力量。这是一场永无止境的旅程,总有新鲜事物等待我们去发现。
