24、   Great books can make us knowledgeable and keep our minds growing. But great books are also hard books. How can we go through with great books? Mortimer J. Adler offers us a key to them in his book How to read a book.

Mortimer J. Adler(1902-2001), an American educator and popular writer, was famous as a leading editor(编者) of Encyclopedia Britannica《大英百科全书》in1974.Also, he set up the Great Books of the Western World program and tried to bring great books to common people.

To increase readers reading skill and help them to be active readers, Mortimer wrote How to read a book. It was first published in 1940 which became a bestseller in America and then it was completely rewritten in 1972. Now, it is one of the most successful guides for the general readers.

In this book, Mortimer first explains why we read. He points out that there is a big difference between reading for information and reading for understanding. He also shows that modern media (传媒) have taken much time we once spent reading books. Perhaps we know more about the world than we used to, but it may be questioned that whether modern media has much improved our understanding of the world. Meanwhile, Mortimer thinks there are four levels of reading, from the elementary(初级的) reading to the comparative reading.

Anyway, How to read a book is useful. But the fact is another story. It's said that 70 percent of the readers fail to finish reading it and 90 percent of the reader don't act in the way suggested in the book.

25、For most people, the word “fashion” means “clothes”. But people may ask the question, “What clothes are in fashion?” And they use the adjective “fashionable” in the same way: “She was wearing a fashionable coat. His shirt was really a fashionable colour.” But of course there are fashions in many things, not only in clothes. There are fashions in holidays, in restaurants, in films and books. There are even fashions in school subjects, jobs…and in languages.

Fashions change as time goes. If you look at pictures of people or things from the past, you will see that fashions have always changed. An English house of 1750 was different from one of 1650. A fashionable man in 1780 looked very different from his grandson in 1860.

Today fashions change very quickly. Some of this is natural. We hear about things much more quickly than in the past. Newspaper, radios, telephones and television send information from one country to another in a few hours. New fashions mean that people will buy new things, so you see there is money in fashion.

【1】From this passage we know that “fashion” means ______.

A. clothes  B. many things

27、阅读短文，选择正确的选项。

Different weather makes people feel different. It influences health, intelligence (智力) and feelings.

In August, it is very hot and wet in the southern part of the United States. People there have heart trouble and other kinds of health problems during this month. In the Northeast and the Middle West, it is very hot at sometimes and very cold at other times. People in these states have more heart trouble after the weather changes in February or March.

The weather can also influence intelligence. For example, in a scientific report, IQ (智商) of a group of students was very high when a very strong wind came, but after the strong wind, their IQ was 10% lower. The wind can help people have more intelligence. Very hot weather, on the other hand, can make it lower. Students in many schools of the United States often get worse grades on exams in the hot months of the year (July and August).

Weather also has a strong influence on people’s feelings. Winter maybe a bad time for thin people. They usually feel cold during these months. They might feel unhappy during cold weather. But fat people may have a hard time in hot summer. At about 18℃, people become stronger.

Low air pressure (气压) may make people forgetful. People leave more bags on buses and in shops on low-pressure days. There is a “good weather” for health. People feel best at a temperature of about 18℃.

Are you feeling sad, tired, forgetful, or unhappy today? It maybe the weather’s problem.

【1】What kind of weather can have a bad effect on health?________ can cause health problems.

A.Hot and wet weather B.A strong wind C.Warm weather D.Low air pressure

28、阅读下面短文，按照句子结构的语法性和上下文连贯的要求，在空格处填入一个适当的词或使用括号中词语的正确形式填空。

As he left the house, he thought to himself, “【6】 wonderful! I will come back and visit it often.”

In this same village, 【7】 little dog decided to visit the house, too. He climbed up the stairs 【8】(slow) and hung his head low as he looked into the door.
