7．One day when I was 12，my mother gave me an order：I was to walk to the public library，and borrow at least one book for the summer．This was one more weapon for her to defeat my strange problem-inability to read．
In the library，I found my way into the"Children's Room．"I sat down on the floor and pulled a few books off the shelf at random．The cover of a book caught my eye．It presented a picture of a beagle．I had recently had a beagle，the first and only animal companion I ever had as a child．He was my secret sharer，but one morning，he was gone，given away to someone who had the space and the money to care for him．I never forgot my beagle．
There on the book's cover was a beagle which looked like my dog．I ran my fingers over the picture of the dog on the cover．My eyes ran across the title，Amos，the Beagle with a Plan．Unknowingly，I had read the title．Without opening the book，I borrowed it from the library for the summer．
Under the shade of a bush，I started to read about Amos．I read very，very slowly with difficulty．Though pages were turned slowly，I got the main idea of the story about a dog who，like mine，had been separated from his family and who finally found his way back home．That dog was my dog，and I was the little boy in the book．At the end of the story，my mind continued the final scene of reunion，on and on，until my own lost dog and I were，in my mind，running together．
My mother's call returned me to the real world．I suddenly realized something：I had read a book，and I had loved reading that book．Everyone knew I could not read．But I had read it．Books could be incredibly wonderful and I was going to read them．
I never told my mother about my amazing experience that summer，but she saw a slow but remarkable improvement in my classroom performance during the next year．And years later，she was proud that her son had read thousands of books，was awarded a PhD in literature，and authored his own books，articles，poetry and fiction．The power of the words has held．
24．The author's mother told him to borrow a book in order toC．
A．encourage him to do more walking    
B．let him spend a meaningful summer
C．help cure him of his reading problem    
D．make him learn more about weapons
25．The book caught the author's eye becauseB．
A．it contained pretty pictures of animals    
B．it reminded him of his own dog
C．he found its title easy to understand      
D．he liked children's stories very much
26．What can be inferred from the last paragraph？A
A．The author has become a successful writer．
B．The author's mother read the same book．
C．The author's mother rewarded him with books．
D．The author has had happy summers ever since．
27．Which one could be the best title of the passage？A
A．The Charm of a Book
B．Mum's Strict Order
C．Reunion with My Beagle
D．My Passion for Reading．

Honestly，we've done it to ourselves．We depend too much on it to communicate and as a result，have made ourselves pay attention toevery one of them．This is terrible．（37）EEvery time an email interrupts you，it costs time，money，and brainpower．

7．Taste is such a subjective matter that we don't usually conduct preference tests for food．The most you can say about anyone's preference，is that it's one person's opinion．But because the two big cola companies-Coca-Cola and Pepsi Cola are marketed so aggressively，we have wondered how big a role taste preference actually plays in brand loyalty．We set up a taste test that challenged people who identified themselves as either Coca-Cola Classic or Pepsi fans：find your brand in a blind tasting．
We invited staff volunteers who had a strong liking for either Coca-Cola Classic or Pepsi，Diet （低糖的） Coke，or Diet Pepsi．These were people who thought they'd have no trouble telling their brand from the other brand．
We eventually located 19regular cola drinkers and 27diet cola drinkers．Then we fed them four unidentified samples of cola one at a time，regular colas for the one group，diet versions for the other．We asked them to tell us whether each sample was Coke or Pepsi，then we analyzed the records statistically to compare the participants'choices with what mere guess-work could have accomplished．
Getting all four samples right was a tough test，but not too tough，we thought，for people who believed they could recognize their brand．In the end，only 7out of 19regular cola drinkers correctly identified their brand of choice in all four trials．The diet-cola drinkers did a little worse-only 7of 27identified all four samples correctly．
While both groups did better than chance would predict，nearly half the participants in each group made the wrong choice two or more times．Two people got all four samples wrong．Overall，half of the participants did about as well on the last round of tasting as on the first，so tiredness，or taste   burnout，was not a factor．Our preference test results suggest that only a few Pepsi participants and Coke fans may really be able to tell their favorite brand by taste and price．

28．It is implied in the first paragraph thatC．
A．the purpose of taste tests is to promote the sale of colas
B．the improvement of quality is the chief concern of the two cola companies
C．the competition between the two colas is very strong
D．blind tasting is necessary for identifying fans
29．According to the passage the preference test was conducted in order toA．
A．find out the role taste preference plays in a person's drinking
B．reveal which cola is more to the liking of the drinkers
C．show that a person's opinion about taste is mere guess-work
D．compare the ability of the participants in choosing their drinks
30．The word'burnout"underlined in Paragraph Five，refers to the state ofD．
A．being seriously burnt in the skin
B．being unable to burn for lack of fuel
C．being badly damaged by fire
D．being unable to function because of excessive use
31．The author's purpose in writing this passage is toA．
A．show that taste preference is highly subjective
B．a(chǎn)rgue that taste testing is an important marketing strategy
C．emphasize that taste and price are closely related to each other
D．recommend that blind tasting be introduced in the quality control of colas．

12．The famed soprano（女高音）Jenny Lind had plenty of talent and determination．And when she came to America in 1850 she had more than enough publicity．Her promoter was the biggest showman（演出經(jīng)理人） of them all-P．T．Barnum．
Eager to rise above his reputation as a promoter of sideshows，Barnum had risked his entire fortune on the singer that he had never heard or seen．He saw to it that the risk paid off．When she arrived in New York，her admirers  surrounded Jenny Lind．By midnight，when she arrived at her hotel，a crowd of 30，000 had gathered just to get a look at her．At one o'clock，a band of 130 musicians came to sing for her．
Tickets for her first American concert were in such demand that they were auctioned off（拍賣）．The first ticket went to a hat maker named Genin who paid＄225 for it and got several days'worth of fame in the bargain．At the concert 7000 shouting people crowded into Castle Garden to hear Jenny Lind sing．She received＄10，000-all of which she gave to New York charities．She repeated her success in Philadelphia，Washington，Richmond，Charleston，and Baltimore．
In Baltimore something happened that may have made Jenny Lind decide that things had gotten out of hand．She was on the balcony of her hotel，bowing to the masses below when her shawl fell．Instead of returning it，the crowd fought over the shawl，tearing it to shreds and pocketing the pieces as souvenirs．Soon afterward she backed out of her contract with Barnum-at a cost of＄30，000-and completed her American tour．Several years passed before she returned to the concert stage．As for P．T．Barnum，he went into a profession for which he may have been supremely well qualified-politics．

A．Her fans．
