1 . When I was eleven, my parents gave me the first book I ever owned--The Tales of Edgar Allan Poe. It was written by the famous novelist Edgar Allan Poe. I clearly remember opening it, reading the first lines of the book, and saying to myself, “So this is what reading is!” I was delighted. Little did I know at the time that I was at the beginning of a lifelong journey.

So, if I read my first real book at the age of eleven, what was I reading before then? In a word, these books are relatively plotless and repetitive, and they attempt to teach children to recognize letters and their sounds and to build their vocabulary. But I still had no idea what writing was. In Poe's stories, the sentences were more complex and stylish than anything I had ever read before.

Poe, in short, was a start. My parents gave me that first book, but then I searched for other books. I liked science, which led me to discover Jules Verne and H. G. Wells. Other writers followed in quick one after another, Isaac Asimov, Ray Bradbury, and Arthur C. Clarke. But I didn't limit myself to science fiction. Other books that deeply impressed me, and which I have carried on my life's journey, include: The Yearling. Shane, Ivanhoe, Of Mice and Men, To Kill a Mockingbird, and The Good Earth.

It went on from there. I became that kid who, long after his parents turned the lights off, hid under the covers with a flashlight, a book, and his greatest fear of being discovered and having his flashlight taken away. I realized that my parents must have known I was defying them. But in their wisdom they pretended to ignore it. And so I owe my start as a reader to my parents.

3 . I have a special place in my heart for libraries. I have for as long as I can remember. I was always an enthusiastic reader, sometimes reading up to three books a day as a child. Stories were like air to me and while other kids played ball or went to parties, I lived out adventures through the books I checked out from the library.

My first job was working at the Ukiah Library when I was 16 years old. It was a dream job and I did everything from shelving books to reading to the children for story time.

As I grew older and became a mother, the library took on a new place and an added meaning in my life. I had several children and books were our main source (来源) of entertainment. It was a big deal for us to load up and go to the local library, where my kids could pick out books to read or books they wanted me to read to them.

I always read, using different voices, as though I were acting out the stories with my voice and they loved it! It was a special time to bond with my children and it filled them with the wonderment of books.

Now, I see my children taking their children to the library and I love that the excitement of going to the library lives on form generation to generation.

As a novelist, I’ve found a new relationship with libraries. I encourage readers to go to their local library when they can’t afford to purchase a book. I see libraries as a safe haven (避风港) for readers and writers, a bridge that helps put together a reader with a book. Libraries, in their own way, help fight book piracy (盗版行为) and 1 think all writers should support libraries in a significant way when they can. Encourage readers to use the library. Share library announcements on your social media. Frequent them and talk about them when you can.

1. Which word best describes the author’s relationship with books as a child?
A.Inseparable.B.Uneasy.C.Awful.D.Casual.
2. What does the underlined phrase “an added meaning” in paragraph 3 refer to?
A.Pleasure from working in the library.B.A closer bond developed with the readers.
C.Fun from acting out the stories.D.Joy of reading passed on in the family.
3. What does the author call on other writers to do?
A.Give money to book fairs.B.Write for social media.
C.Buy her novels.D.Support libraries.
4. Which can be a suitable title for the text?
A.Reading: A Source of KnowledgeB.My Idea about writing
C.My Love of the LibraryD.Library: A Haven for the Young

5 . As France enters a strict four-week lockdown in order to prevent a dangerous second wave of coronavirus, its independent booksellers have requested the status of an essential service.

A statement announced by booksellers' association wants bookshops to be listed alongside supermarkets and drugstores as necessary to human well-being.Bookstores might not be the first thing that comes to mind when we think about what's needed in a dangerous situation, but they offer mental comfort that few other businesses can match."Books satisfy our needs for understanding, reflection, sharing and communication, even in separation," says the statement.They appeal to the French government to "leave our bookstores open, so that social separation is not also cultural isolation."

Bookstores have already established rules of conduct that allow shopping to occur in a safe, gem-free manner.They want curbside(路边)pickup to be allowed to continue, which means placing a customer's order to his car trunk without the buyer leaving his vehicle.The staff should wear a mask and maintain at least six feet of distance while delivering goods.

We also reached out to the American Booksellers Association(ABA)to learn whether American booksellers also view themselves as a much-needed service.CEO Allison Hill admits that booksellers "in no way outweigh healthcare workers during the stay-at-home period," but the role of bookstores and books should not be underestimated.Books are important to many people this year for various reasons, including homeschooling, education, emotional support, connection, and humanity.That is why "bookstores in the U.S.are given essential status during shutdowns so that they can continue offering curbside service." Despite this, independent booksellers are struggling across the US, as they are in France.Hill said in a press release that one bookshop has closed per week since COVID-19 started and that 25% are in danger of closing by January.

1. Why did the association announce the statement?
A.To keep bookstores running.B.To run bookshops near markets.
C.To compete with US booksellers.D.To stress the benefits of books.
2. According to Paragraph 3, how will bookstores operate safely?
A.By providing home delivery.B.By giving away free masks.
C.By offering less contact pickup.D.By forcing buyers to leave the cars.
3. What can we infer from Allison Hill's words?
A.American bookstores are considered necessary.
B.The great importance of books is overlooked.
C.Booksellers are more important than doctors.
D.A quarter of bookstores have closed by January.
4. What's the main idea of the passage?
A.Books offer mental support in tough times.
B.Bookstores should be an essential service.
C.Bookstores are at the risk of closing down.
D.Booksellers contribute a lot during the pandemic.

9 . For some people, the warmest memories from childhood come from being read a great story.     1     It develops children’s language skills and increases their ability to succeed in school and, later, work.

Experts say parents should read books that are not too long and on the right age level so that children will not lose interest. They say parents should also point to and talk about pictures in books for infants (幼儿).     2    

Elizabeth Lyttleton has three daughters. They are at age ten, eight and two.     3     She says, "I watch my two-year-old, who is now getting a big language explosion. So much of it comes from the books that she reads. With my eight-year-old, it’s now the broadening horizons (眼界). The oldest now truly reads for pleasure and can get lost in young adult books. "

    4     The company Scholastic is a major publisher of children’s books. Every two years, Scholastic publishes a report on American reading attitudes and habits. The 2015 report says only 31 percent of children in the U. S. read a book for fun almost every day. Four years ago that number was more than double.

Scholastic also suggests some ways to develop a love of reading in a child.     5     Another way to develop a reading habit in children is to read to them. The Scholastic report also suggests permitting children to choose their own books. Of all the 6 - to 17-year-olds in the Scholastic study, more than 90% said their favorite books are the ones they choose for themselves.

A.One is simply to have books in the home.
B.All her children read books at the same time.
C.All her children learn from books — but in different ways.
D.Of course, adults can enjoy reading children's book
E.But reading to children can do more than create warm memorles.
F.For young children, parents should ask questions about the book.
G.However, researchers find that the number of children who read for fun is dropping fast.

10 . While you may know how to find the best app for your phone, do you know how to pick a book you'll really like? Here are some tips.

1. Start with your interests.     1     You can pick something that’s all about your interests, whether it’s ancient martial arts, computers, or fashion design. You name it, there are surely to be books about it.

2. What's your "type"? Do you prefer fiction or nonfiction? Fiction books like novels or short-story collections can transport you to another world, or help you imagine something beyond your own experience. Not all fiction is the same-maybe you like the classics, fantasy or mystery (悬疑) novels.     2    . Try a range of types of fiction and see what you prefer. Nonfiction books give you the who, what, when, and why of something.     3    , but that doesn't mean they're dull . Nonfiction books can bring to life the eruption of Mount St. Helens in Washington or help you see inside a Chinese dynasty. Many of them read like novels from start to finish.

3.     4    . What was your mother's favorite book when she was your age or your dad's? How about a brother's or sister's? Find out and give it a read-then you can share your thoughts about the book. After all, what is a better way to connect with that cousin you only see in the summer than trading reading recommendations and discussing your reactions?

4. Join the club-online or in person. Get your friends together and share information about authors, writing styles, and story types.     5    . Join a group with your friends and people you trust (avoiding sharing personal information with people you don't know, of course).

A.Explain your interests
B.Find a family favorite
C.They tell stories using facts
D.Maybe historical fiction is more your thing
E.A library can attract you with a lot of great books
F.Reading on your own isn't like reading for school
G.Most social networking sites also have book-club sections
