A study found a(an) __36___ result in young children: the more stories read to them, the __37__ their “theory of mind,” or mental model of other people’s intentions.“Deep reading” —as __38__ to the superficial reading we do on the Web — is an __39__ practice, one we should take steps to __40__ as we would a historic building or a significant work of art. Its __41__ would put in danger the intellectual andemotional development of generations growing up online, as well as literature that can be __42__ only by readers whose brains, quite __43__ , have been trained to understand them.Recent research has demonstrated that deep reading is a __44__ experience, different from the mere decoding of words. __45__ deep reading does not, strictly speaking, require a __46__ book, the built-in limits of the printed page are uniquely conducive(有助于) to the deep reading exp erience. A book’s lack of hyperlinks, for example, __47__ the reader from making decisions — Should I click on this link or not — __48__ her to remain fully immersed in the narrative.The deep reading of books and the information-driven reading we do on the Web are different, both __49__ the experience they produce and the __50__ they develop.A growing body of evidence suggests that online reading may be less __51__ and less satisfying, even for the “digital natives” for whom it is so familiar.When readers are enjoying the experience the most, the __52__ of their reading actually slows. The __53__ of fast, fluent decoding of words and slow, unhurried progress on the page gives deep readers time to enrich their reading with __54__, analysis, and opinions. It gives them time to establish an close relationship with the author, the two of them engaged in an extended __55__ like people falling in love.36.

Some of the choices seem odd to me — but that’s part of the fun, as you wonder why. The notes make the book really useful. Every home should have a copy.POEMS THAT MAKE GROWN MEN CRYEdited by Anthony and Ben Holden (Simon & Schuster £16.99)This is a fascinating, wide-ranging selection of poems chosen by100 well-known men —simply because they find them deeply moving.But grown men aren’t supposed to cry, are they?Some of the poems are about loss, as you’d expect, but othersare about deeply held political passions orintense observations of nature. Each is introducedby the chooser, usually with frank personaldetail.BLACK COUNTRY by Liz Berry (Chatto £10)This is a writer I’m thrilled to discover — someone who takes apride in the Midlands, where she lives. Berry uses some of thedialect words she heard as a child, turning ordinariness intosomething direct, tender and beautiful.The disagreeable Brummie accent becomes music in the hands of thisfine young poet.LEARNING TO MAKE AN OUD IN NAZARETH by Ruth Padel (Chatto £10) Padel is one of our most talented writers. Poet, naturalist, musicianand travel writer, she turns her multi-layered poetic attention tothe Middle East, seeking peace and harmony through sensitive andmoving poems that offer hope even as they reflect upon struggle.

Learning to Make an Oud in NazarethBEvery fall, like clockwork, Linda Krentz of Beaverton, Oregon, felt her brain go on strike. "I just couldn't get going in the morning," she says. "I'd get depressed and gain 10 pounds every winter and lose them again in the spring." Then she read about seasonal affective disorder, a form of depression that occurs in falland winter, and she saw the light literally. Every morning now she turns on a specially constructed light box for half an hour and sits in front of it to trick her brain into thinking it's still enjoying those long summer days. It seems to work.Krentz is not alone. Scientists estimate that 10 million Americans suffer from seasonal depression and 25 million more develop milder versions. But there's never been definitive proof that treatment with very bright lights makes a difference. After all, it's hard to do a double-blind test when the subjects can see for themselves whether or not the light is on. That's why nobody has ever separated the real effects of light therapy from placebo (安慰剂) effects.Until now, in three separate studies published last month, researchers report not only that light therapy works better than a placebo but that treatment is usually more effective in the early morning than in the evening. In two of the groups, the placebo problem was resolved by telling patients they were comparing light boxes to a new anti-depressant device that gives off negatively charged ions (离子). The third used the timing of light therapy as the control.Why does light therapy work? No one really knows."Our research suggests it has something to do with shifting the body's internal clock," says psychiatrist Dr. Lewey. The body is programmed to start the day with sunrise, he explains, and this gets later as the days get shorter. But why such subtle shifts make some people depressed and not others is a mystery.That hasn't stopped thousands of winter depressives from trying to heal themselves. Light boxes for that purpose are available without a doctor'sprescription. That bothers psychologist Michael Terman of Columbia University. He is worried that the boxes may be tried by patients who suffer from mental illness that can't be treated with light. Terman has developed a questionnaire to help determine whether expert care is needed.In any event, you should choose a reputable manufacturer. Whatever product you use should give off only visible light, because ultraviolet light damages the eyes. If you are photosensitive (对光敏感的), you may develop a rash. Otherwise, the main drawback is having to sit in front of the light for 30 to 60 minutes in the morning. That's an inconvenience many winter depressives can live with.59. What is the probable cause of Krentz's problem?A. An unexpected gain in body weight.B. Unexplained impairment of her nervous system.C. Weakening of her eyesight with the setting in of winter.D. Poor adjustment of her body clock to seasonal changes.60. What is the CURRENT view concerning the treatment of seasonal depression with bright lights?A. Its effect remains to be seen.B. It serves as a kind of placebo.C. It proves to be an effective therapy.D. It hardly produces any effects.61. What is psychologist Michael Terman's major concern?A. Winter depressives will be addicted to using light boxes.B. No mental patients would bother to consult psychiatrists.C. Inferior light boxes will give off harmful ultraviolet lights.D. Light therapy could be misused by certain mental patients.62. Which of the following statements is TRUE?A. Winter depressives prefer light therapy in spite of its inconvenience.B. Light therapy increases the patient's photosensitivity.C. Eye damage is a side effect of light therapy.D. Light boxes can be programmed to correspond to shifts in the body clock.CIt was once common to regard Britain as a society with class distinction. Each class had unique characteristics.In recent years, many writers have begun to speak the 'decline of class' and 'classless society' in Britain. And in modern day consumer society everyone isconsidered to be middle class.But pronouncing the death of class is too early. A recent wide-ranging society of public opinion found 90 percent of people still placing themselves in particular class; 73 percent agreed that class was still a vital part of British society; and 52 percent thought there were still sharp class differences. Thus, class may not be culturally and politically obvious, yet it remains an important part of British society. Britain seems to have a love of stratification.One unchanging aspect of a British person's class position is accent. The words a person speaks tell her or his class. A study of British accents during 1970s found that a voice sounding like a BBC newsreader was viewed as the most attractive voice, Most people said this accent sounded 'educated' and 'soft'. The accents placed at the bottom in this study, on the other hand, were regional（地区的）city accents. These accents were seen as 'common' and 'ugly'. However, a similar study of British accents in the US turned these results upside down and placed some regional accents as the most attractive and BBC English as the least. This suggests that British attitudes towards accent have deep roots and are based on class prejudice.In recent years, however, young upper middle-class people in London, have begun to adopt some regional accents, in order to hide their class origins. This is an indication of class becoming unnoticed. However, the 1995 pop song 'Common People' puts forward the view that though a middle-class person may 'want to live like common people' they can never appreciate the reality of a working-class life.63. A recent study of public opinion shows that in modern Britain ________.A. it is time to end class distinctionB. most people belong to middle classC. it is easy to recognize a person’s classD. people regard themselves socially different64. The word stratification in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to ________.A.varietyB.divisionC. authorityD. qualification65.British attitudes towards accent _________.A. have a long traditionB. are based on regional statusC. are shared by the AmericansD. have changed in recent years66. What is the main idea of the passage?A. The middle class is expandingB. A person’s accent reflects his classC. Class is a key part of British societyD. Each class has unique characteristics.DMy mind went blank when I saw the gun pointing against the car window as we pulled out of the garage. This can’t be happening to me. Then I felt the gun, cold, against my head, and I heard my friend Jeremy saying, “What do you want? Take my wallet,” but at the time I thought of nothing.I remember being a little annoyed when the gunman pulled me from the car by the hair. I remember the walk to the house --- Jeremy, me, the two men with two guns.I remember the fear and anger in the gun men’s voices because Jeremy was being slow, and I remember wondering why he was being slow. I did not realize that Jeremy had thrown the keys into the bush. But I remember that sound of the gun hitting Jeremy’s head and the feeling as the man who had hold of my hair released me. And I remember the split second when I realized he was looking at Jeremy, and I remember wondering how far I could run before he pulled the trigger. But I was already running, and upon reaching the car across the street, I didn’t cr ouch(蹲伏) behind it but screamed instead.I remember thinking there was something ridiculous and illogical about screaming “Help, help!” at eight o’clock on a Tuesday evening in December and changing my plea(恳求) to the more specific “Help, let me in, please let me in!” But the houses were cold, closed, unfriendly, and I ran on until I heard Jeremy’s screams behind me announcing that our attackers had fled.The neighbors who had not opened their doors to us came out with baseball bats and helped Jeremy find his glasses and keys. In a group they were very brave. We waited for the police to come until someone said to someone else that the noodles were getting cold, and I said politely, “Please go and eat. We’re O.K.”I was happy to see them go. They had been talking of stricter sentences for criminals, of bringing back the death penalty(处罚) and how the President is going to clean up the country. I was thinking, they could be saying all of this over my dead body, and I still feel that stiffer senten ces wouldn’t change a thing. In a rush all the anger I should have felt for my attackers was directed against these contented people standing in front of their warm, comfortable homes talking about all the guns they were going to buy. What good would guns have been to Jeremy and me?People all over the neighborhood had called to report our screams, and the police turned out in force twenty minutes later. They were ill-tempered about what was, to them, much trouble about nothing. After all, Jeremy was hardly hurt, and we werehopeless when it came to describing the gunmen. “Typical,” said one policeman when we couldn’t even agree on how tall the men were. Both of us were able to describe the guns in horrifying detail, but the two policemen who stayed to make the report didn’t think that would be much help.The policemen were matter-of-fact about the whole thing. The thin one said, “That was a stupid thing to do, throwing away the keys. When a man has a gun against your head you do what you’re told.” Jeremy looked properly embarrassed.Then the fat policeman came up and the thin one went to look around the outside of the house. “That was the best thing you could have done, throwing away the keys,” he said. “If you had gone into the house with them…” His voice became weaker. “They would have hurt her” --- he twisted his head toward me –“and killed you both.” Jeremy looked happier. “Look,” said the fat policeman kindly, “there’s no right or wrong in the situation. There’s just luck.”All that sleepless night I replayed the moment those black gloves came up to the car window. How long did the whole thing last? Three minutes, five, eight? No matter how many hours of my life I may spend reliving it, I know there is no way to prepare for the next time --- no intelligent response to a gun. The fat cop was right. There’s only luck. The next time I might end up dead.And I’m sure there will be a next time. It can happen anywhere, anytime, to anyone. Security is an illusion(幻觉); there is no safety in locks or in guns. Guns make some people feel safe and some people feel strong, but they’re fooling themselves.67. What most possibly drove the two gunmen away?A. Jeremy's fighting. B．The author's screaming.C．Their neighbour's brave action. D．The police's arrival.68. The author was happy to see the neighbors go because ______.A．she hated to listen to their empty talkB．she did not want to become an object of pityC．she was angered by their being late to come to her helpD．she wanted to be left alone with Jeremy to get over the shock69. The police were rather angry because ______.A．the author was not hurt and gave a false alarmB．they thought it was a case of little importanceC．the author and Jeremy could not tell the police anythingD．the gunmen had already fled when they arrived on the scene70. What the author wants to tell us is that______.A．neighbors are not helpful in moments of difficultyB．the police are not reliable when one is in troubleC．preventing robbers entering your house is the best choiceD．security is impossible as long as people can have guns第四部分任务型阅读请认真阅读下列短文, 并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。
