  I took home a briefcase full of troubles.As I sat down on that hot and damp   1  , there seemed to be no   2   to the problems thrashing(翻腾)around in my brain.So I picked up a book, settled into a comfortable chair and   3   my own special therapy(疗法)-  4   reading.

  I   5   three or four hours on two short chapters of Personal History by Vincent Sheean-tasting each paragraph, staying over a sentence, a phrase, or even a single heat-wave night.Enjoying every word, I   6   foreign correspondent(通讯记者)Sheean on a mission to China and another to Russia.I   7   myself in the author’s world.And when finally I put it down, my mind was totally   8  

  Next morning, four words from the book-“take the long   9  ”-were still in my mind.At my desk, I had a long-view look at my   10  .Once more, “super-slow” reading had given me not only   11   but perspective(视角),and helped me in my everyday affairs.

  I discovered its   12   years ago.Previously, if I had been really interested in a book, I would   13   from page to page,   14   to know what came next.Now, I decided, I had to become a miser(守财奴)with   15   and stretch every sentence like a poor man spending his last dollar.

  I had started with the practical object of making my book last.But by the end of the second week I began to realize   16   I was getting from super-slow-reading itself.Sometimes just a particular phrase   17   my attention, sometimes a sentence.I would read it slowly, analyze(分析)it, read it again-perhaps changing down into an even   18   speed-and then sit for 20 minutes thinking about it before moving on.I was like a pianist   19   a piece of music, phrase by phrase, practicing it, trying to discover and   20   exactly what the composer was trying to convey(传送).

When we read books we seem to 21 a new world. This new world can be similar to the one we are living in, or it can be very 22 . Some stories are told  23 they were true. Real people 24 live in a normal world do real things; in other words, the stories are about people just like us doing what we do. Other stories, such as the Harry Potter books, are not  25 . They are characters and creatures that are very different from us and do things that would be  26 for us.

27 there is more to books and writing than this. If we think about it, even realistic writing is only imagined. How can we tell the difference between what is real and what is not real? For example, when we read about Harry Potter, we 28 seem to learn something about the real world. And when Harry studies magic at Hogwarts, he also learns more about his real life than 29 . Reading, like writing, is an action. It is a way _30_ living. When we read or write something ,we do much more than simple look at words on a page. We use our 31  --which is real—and our imagination—which is real in a different way --- to make the words come to life in our minds.

Both realism and fantasy(幻想) 32  the imagination and the “magic” of reading and writing to make us think. When we read  33 realistic, we have to imagine that the people we are reading about are just like us, even though we  34 that we are real and they are 35 . It sounds strange, but it works. When we read, we fill in missing information and 36 about the causes and effects of what a character does. We help the writer by pretending that _37_we read is like real life. In a way, we are writing the book, too.

Most of us probably don’t think about what is going on in our 38 when we are reading. We pick up a book and lose  39 in a good story, eager to find out what will happen next. Knowing how we feel 40 we read can help us become better readers, and it will help us discover more about the real magic of books.

阅读下面短文,掌握其大意,然后从11-25各题所给的A、B、C、D项中,选出最佳选项,并把答案根据题号涂到答题卡上。

Years ago, if a teenager had some problems in her life, she might go home and write in her diary. Now, a teenager with   11  problems might go onto the Internet and write about them in a blog. In many ways, a diary and a blog are very   12  . So, what makes blogging different from writing in a(an)   13  diary?

The biggest difference is that blogging is much more  14  than a diary. Usually, a teenager treats her diary like a book full of  15 that she does not want to  16  .

It’s interesting that someone who writes in a blog  17 a diary will probably write nearly the same information.

I have a little sister, and sometimes I go online to read her blog. She writes about things like waking up early for swimming practice and not studying enough for her chemistry test. When I was her age, I wrote about the same things, but  18  in my diary. Then, after I had finished writing, I would hide my diary in a secret place because I was   19 that my sister might read it!

  The biggest   20 with blogging is that anyone can read what you write. If I was angry with a friend during high school and wrote something   21  about her in my diary, she would never know.  22  , if my sister ever wrote something bad about a friend, that friend

might read her blog and get angry.

There are also   23 to blogging, of course. If I was feeling sad one day and wrote in my diary, “Nobody cares about me,”  24  would know about it. However, if my sister wrote the same sentence in her blog, her best friends would quickly respond and tell her how much they like her. Blogs help people stay in   25  with her friends and to hear what the people around them are doing.

11. A. the same      B. troublesome      C. difficult    D. daily

23. A. reasons     B. disadvantage    C. shortcomings  D. advantages
