The Forgotten Pages

Once upon a time, in a land far away, there was a small village. Surrounded by the majestic mountains, the villagers happily lived a life of bliss.

All of them were used to their robotic daily tasks and none of them had the imagination or the will to try something new, except for one girl named Hannah. Very few people in the village could read let alone write, and Hannah was one of them. Her parents had made sure that their only child got everything possible.

Hannah was an adventurous spirit with an imagination far beyond her time. One afternoon, when Hannah was on one of her adventurous quests, she came upon an abandoned cottage. The cottage looked very old in its condition. Even though Hannah’s mother had strictly warned her not to go wandering in abandoned places, her curiosity got the best of her.

She tip-toed slowly to the door and slowly opened it and she was left stunned. In front of Hannah was a room full of books! Books glistering in the dust, basking in the warm sunlight just waiting to be explored. Hannah gasped (倒吸气) as she realized that she had found a hidden treasure. Hannah broomed and dusted all day long until she realized it was dark and she had to go back. So Hannah picked two books and decided to read them at her home.

She went home and all night long, she read the adventurous tales hidden in the book cover. The next day, she quickly gulped her breakfast and made her way to the cottage again. Hannah devoured the books.

They were too interesting filled with stories about different creatures. Each page was just an adventure waiting to be embarked on. Hannah’s imagination took her to a world of talking animals, mystical creatures, and daring nights. The little girl was so inspired by the books and she learned the power of love and friendship! With the good in heart, she decided to share the tales with the people of her village.

4 . 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入 1 个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

With so much information available in books and online, it’s easy     1     (learn) a few new facts each day. But how much of that do you     2     (actual) remember?     3     your answer is ―not much, here is the good news. Scientists at RMIT University in Melbourne, Australia, recently designed a new typeface (字体)     4     was invented with read-it-and-forget-it people     5     mind. Very appropriately, it’s called Sans Forgetica.

The idea behind Sans Forgetica is simple. The typeface is a tiny bit     6     (difficulty) to read, which     7     (mean) your brain has to work twice as hard to understand what it says. Because of that deeper focus, you’ll have a better memory for whatever you’re reading. That’s not just a theory, either. The typeface was created by a team of     8     (researcher) from RMIT University’s School of Design and its Behavioural Business Lab. The group worked with a famous typographer Stephen Banham to test and improve       9     (they) product.

The typeface uses principles of cognitive psychology to create an effect     10     (know) as desirable difficulty, the researchers note, ―which causes the brain to take part in deeper cognitive processing. The result is improved memory.
