If you are reading this article in class, you are probably trying to read it quickly．You have been taught to skim and scan, to look for key words so as to understand the main idea and the important points in the article．Skimming and scanning is a good way when you are taking an exam．But, today, many people skim and scan everything and they have lost the ability to enjoy reading．Now something called the"slow reading movement"has become popular．The idea is that people should shut off their computers and mobile phones for half an hour or forty﹣five minutes each day and enjoy the pleasures of reading a good book﹣slowly!In many cities there are even slow reading clubs where members go to a café, sit quietly, drink coffee and j ust read．Researchers have found that reading slowly, helps people concentrate and relax．Reading, of course, isn't easy．You have to sit still, for one thing．And it can seem boring when compared to the excitement of playing video games．But, for me, reading has been an enduring pleasure in my life．From the age of ten, when I got my first library card, I've enjoyed thousands of interesting ________ I would have never met in real life．Reading helped me to understand the world around me．It was an education in a classroom that had no walls．In your classroom, you have learned to read"fast"．Outside the classroom, you should try to learn to read"slow"．You may be surprised at how much you enjoy it．（1）According to the passage，what is a good way ofreading when taking an exam？________A Skimming and scanning．B Thinking over carefully．C Understanding the main idea．D Reading carefully and slowly．．（2）Which of the following is NOT the idea for the"slow reading movement"？________A Sit quietly and just read．B Enjoy reading a good book．C Talk about the books you like together．D Shut off your computers and mobile phones．．（3）What does the underlined word"people"mean？________A Students in the classroom．B Characters from the books．C Persons in the writer's real life．D Members from slow reading clubs．．（4）What is the best title of the passage？________A Slow reading movement．B Advantages of fast reading．C Enjoy skimming and scanning．D Slow reading and fast reading．21. When the great library of Alexandria burned, the story went, one book was saved．It w as not a valuable book, and so a poor man who could read very little bought it for a few coins ．Between its pages there was something very interesting．It was a thin paper on which wa s written the secret of the touchstone!The touchstone was a small pebble（卵石）that could turn any common metal into gold．The writing explained that it was lying a mong thousands of other pebbles that looked exactly like it．But the secret was this: The rea l stone would feel warm, while common pebbles were cold．So the man camped on the beach and began testing pebbles．He thought that if he picked up common pebbles and put them down again, he might pick u p the same pebble hundreds of times．So, when he felt one that was cold, he threw it into th e sea．He spent a whole day doing this but none of them was the touchstone．The days became weeks and the weeks into months．One day, however, he picked up a peb ble and it was warm．He threw it into the sea before he realized what he had done．He had formed such a strong habit of throwing each pebble into the sea．So when the one he wanted came along, he still threw it away．So it is with chances．Unless we are careful, it's easy to fail to catch a chance when it is at hand．And it's just as easy to throw it away．（1）The poor man bought the book because________．A it was very cheap．B it was of great value．C there was a secret in the book．D he wanted to find the touchstone．（2）According to the story，the touchstone________．A is a big pebble．B feels cold．C is magic.D is gold．（3）The man threw pebbles into the sea________．A to test how far he could throw．B to practice throwing pebbles．C to avoid picki ng up the same pebble．D to express his disappointment．（4）What does the story want to tell us？________A Careful habits can lead to success．B Habits can help you but also hold you back．C Never make a decision by its look．D Chances only visit the ready and careful mind．六、Ⅵ、阅读还原．（10分，每题2分）阅读短文，从短文后的五个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项．每个选项只能用一次．22.

Very few people were still out except a few sad-looking homeless people under blankets(毛毯).Suddenly, I heard a sound behind me. I turned quickly, all I saw was a shining streetlight. Still, the noise had made me nervous, so I started to run faster. When I reached home, I realized what the noise had been. It had been my wallet fallingto the sidewalk.Now I wasn’t cold or tired anymore. I ran back to where I’d heard the noise. Although I searched carefully for fifteen minutes, my wallet was nowhere to be found.Just as I was about to give up the search, I heard the garbage truck(垃圾车)come to me. When a voice called from the inside, “Alisa Chen?” I thought I was dreaming. How could this man know my name?
