（2016高考训练）阅读下列材料，从每题所给的选项中选出最佳选项。

体裁：说明文 话题：社会现象 词数：390 时间：8′

It's midnight in Taiwan.While some people are slowly walking home through the busy

streets，or getting ready to hit the club scene，others are on their way to a more

unusual place—a bookstore.The Eslite store in central Taipei opens 24 hours and has

more visitors than most Western bookstores could dream of during their daytime

hours.Here，young and old sit side­by­side on small steps or around reading tables，deeply absorbed in literary worlds.Others stand and some sit on the floor，all reading

in silence as soft classical music flows out from the speakers.

The Eslite Group，which runs the five­story store，opened its first branch in Taipei

in 1989.Today，25 years on，the company runs 42 stores in Taiwan，one in Hong Kong

and has powerful plans to expand in mainland China.The chain's rise comes at a time

when bookstores in the United States and Europe are struggling to survive，with some

forced to wind__up due to growing pressure from online competitors like Amazon.In the

United Kingdom，a third of all independent bookstores have closed down in the last

decade.

And the last major book seller in the U．S.—Barnes & Noble—is shutting stores as

its management struggles to meet the challenges from its digital competitors.Eslite

has hit upon an idea to avoid this—making the store as much a place for books as it

is for design，fashion and home styling，small cafes and restaurants.It reported revenue

(收入) of around $425 million in 2013，with books accounting for some 40 percent of

sales.

The mix of literature and design has made the store a place for bookworms，allowing

the company to ignore the challenges of the digital age.“It is our belief that the

more digital the society (becomes)，the more we treasure the warmth of the

interconnection，”Timothy Wang，the manager，says.“This key idea makes Eslite hardly

influenced by the changes of the industry.”

Eslite's success may seem counter­intuitive(反直觉的) especially when it seems most 2 late­night visitors treat it like a library，leaving empty handed after hours of free

reading.Eslite's Timothy Wang says that the business is successful because it creates

“a friendly environment” and treats “books as well as the visitors with great

enthusiasm.”

【语篇解读】 文章介绍了为什么台湾图书销售繁荣，因为有很多可以看书的夜店。

1．According to the passage，we can know that ________．

A．people in Taipei have no time to read in the daytime

B．people in Taipei enjoy reading in the Eslite store

C．the Eslite Group is a good place to chat with friends

D．the Eslite store attracts many Western readers

答案 B [细节理解题。根据第一段后三句内容可知，台北诚品书店24小时营业，它拥有的顾客比许多西方国家书店里白天的顾客还多。在这里，老人和小孩挨着坐在小阶梯上或者紧挨着书桌，深深地陷入文学世界。有的站着看，还有的坐在地板上看，柔和的古典音乐从扬声器里流淌出来，所有的人都在只剩音乐的一片寂静中阅读书籍。由此可知，台北的人们喜欢在诚品书店读书。]

2．What's the meaning of the underlined phrase “wind up” in Paragraph 2?

A．Find out. B．Support.

C．Develop. D．Shut down.

答案 D [词义猜测题。根据第二段“The chain's rise comes at a time when bookstores

in the United States and Europe are struggling to survive...In the United Kingdom，a third of all independent bookstores have closed down in the last decade.”可知台北诚品连锁书店正在崛起，而此时美国和欧洲的书店正惨淡经营。在过去的十年里，英国三分之一的独立书店已经停业。由此可知，由于来自电商竞争者的压力日益剧增，比如亚马逊，有的书店不得不被迫“关门”。画线短语的意思是：关门，停业。]

3．How does the Eslite Group enlarge its business according to Paragraph 3?

A．By selling books online.

B．By competing with digital competitors.

C.By making its store comfortable and relaxing.

D．By selling books at a low price.

答案 C [推理判断题。根据第三段“Eslite has hit upon an idea to avoid this—making 3 the store as much a place for books as it is for design，fashion and home styling，small cafes and restaurants.”可知，诚品书店突发奇想出了一个躲避低潮的办法——把书店打造成一个有设计感、时尚、家庭风格的小咖啡馆和餐厅式的地方。由此可推知，诚品书店把书店打造成一个舒适、放松的地方吸引更多的读者。]

4．Which is the best title for this passage?

A．How to sell books in the digital age

B．Ways of managing a bookstore successfully

C．Why book selling is successful in Taiwan

D．The measures taken to protect the booksellers in the digital age

答案 C [标题判断题。文章主要介绍了台湾的诚品书店在电商时代是如何取得成功的。]

Alzheimer's disease affects millions of people around the world. American

Fear may be felt in the heart as well as in the head，according to a study that has found a link

between the cycles of a beating heart and the chance of someone feeling fear.

Tests on healthy volunteers found that they were more likely to feel a sense of fear at the

moment when their hearts are contracting(收缩)and pumping blood around their bodies，compared

with the point when the heartbeat is relaxed. Scientists say the results suggest that the heart

is able to influence how the brain responds to a fearful event，depending on which point it is

at in its regular cycle of contraction and relaxation.

Sarah Garfinkel at the Brighton and Sussex Medical School said：“Our study shows for the

first time that the way in which we deal with fear is different depending on when we see fearful

Dear Rudyard Kipling,

Father has consistently tried to instill(灌输) a sense of being a man in me ever

since I was very young. When I reached the age of twelve he began taking me to his

auto body shop. He told me this tough job would build me into a man of character.

But this all changed a year ago when my mother passed away and stumbled upon your

poem, If.

My mother was the person who could understand me. If I ever got tired during

my work hours at the shop I could call her to come and pick me up. It was my mother

who instilled the love of literature and languages in me. My mother spoke six

languages fluently and had thousands of books, which still sit in the attic of our

house. It was in this “library” of hers that I picked up a book of poetry from

I was no different from any other mother.

When my little boy, Skyler, was born, I longed for the day he would talk to me.My husband

and I dreamed about the first sweet“Mama”or“Dada”．Every cry or coo was a small

glimpse into my son's mind.

My baby's noises were even more precious to me because Skyler had been born with several

health problems.At first, the problems had delayed his development, but once they were

safely behind us, I looked forward to my son's first words.They didn't come.

At age three，Skyler was diagnosed as autistic(自闭症的)，a developmental disability

destined to affect his social and emotional well­being throughout his entire

life.Skyler couldn't talk—wouldn't talk.I would probably never hear any words from
