Here are some books written by Joyce Grant.
Can You Believe It
Publisher: Kids Can Press
Published in 2022, it explores in depth how real journalism is made, what false news is, and most
importantly, how to spot the difference. Young kids get most of their information online. This
must-read guide helps them decide which information they can trust and which they can’t.
Tagged Out
Publisher: Lorimer Kids and Teens
Published in 2016 and full of kid-friendly information, it’s an excellent read, especially the
description of the action. Reading it makes readers feel like they’re right there watching the game and
feeling what the kids feel in success and in failure. Grant reflects the attitudes and behaviors of today’s
young teens and makes each of her characters real.
Gabby: Drama Queen
Publisher: Fitzhenry & amp; Whiteside Publishing
It was published three years later than Tagged Out. Little kid Gabby and her friend Roy are setting
up a stage for their play about “Queen Gabriella”. Gabby puts some letters together to create words that
will turn into various props( 道 具 ). When they finally have everything they need, they’re ready to
perform for their elderly neighbor.
Stiding Home
Publisher: Lorimer Kids and Teens
It came out in 2018. When young Miguel’s family becomes desperate, a solution comes from
Miguel’s baseball teammate, who suggests a big baseball money-raising campaign. As the team learns
about the hard realities some kids face and helps them wholeheartedly, Miguel learns to trust his
teammates.

A woman held her phone tightly to her heart. She was anxious to take a picture of an impressive
bunch of flowers that sat not so far away, but first she had to get through a crowd of others pushing their
way to do the same. The cause of this was Bouquets to Art, one of the most popular events at the de
Young Museum in San Francisco.
In recent years, the de Young received more than a thousand complaints from people who felt that
cell phones had spoiled their experience of the exhibit. Institutions of fine art around the world face
similar problems as the desire to take photographs becomes a huge attraction for museums, as well as
something that upsets some of their patrons ( 资 助 人 ). So the de Young responded with a kind of
compromise: carving out “photo free” hours during the exhibition’s six-day run.
One common complaint about the effect of social media on museum culture is that people seem to be
missing out on experiences because they are so busy collecting evidence of them. A study recently
published in the journal Psychological Science suggests there is some truth to this. It finds that people,
who keep taking photos of an exhibit and posting them on social media rather than simply observing it,
have a hard time remembering what they see. But the issue is complex for the professionals running
museums. Linda Butler, the de Young’s head of marketing and visitor experience, acknowledges that not
everyone wants a museum to be “a photo-taking playland”. Yet a lot of people do and she believes that
the de Young is in no position to judge one reason for buying a $28 ticket to be more reasonable than
another. “If we removed social media and photography,” she says. “We would risk becoming
unimportant.”
24. What was the woman eager to do according to Paragraph 1?
A. To get her phone. B. To escape the crowd.
C. To take a photo. D. To push ahead.
25. How did the de Young respond to the dilemma?
A. By compromising with the government. B. By making the exhibition free of charge.
C. By setting periods without photo-taking. D. By extending the free exhibition hours.
26. What may the use of social media in museums bring about?
A. Museum-owner’s lower profits. B. Exhibits’ damage to appearance.
C. Professionals’ lack of tolerance. D. Visitors’ distraction of real focus.
27. Which of the following may Linda Butler support?
A. Catering to visitors. B. Reducing admission prices.
C. Reserving judgement in public. D. Banning social media and photography.
C
Vehicles on our roads are now mostly petrol and diesel (柴油) cars, but their days cannot continue
for much longer. A recent university study found that current electric cars could be used for 87 percent
of daily car journeys in the US. That figure could rise to 98 percent by 2024.
One hurdle to the widespread adoption of electric cars has been “range anxiety” — drivers’
concerns about running out of electricity on a journey. While petrol stations are conveniently located
across national road systems, the necessary network of electric charging stations is still being
developed. That said, charging points are becoming increasingly common throughout the USA.
Attitudes towards electric vehicles have changed greatly over the last few years. Not that long ago,
electric cars were met with distrust, and their high prices drove customers away. Thanks to
improvements in battery capacity, recharging times, performance and price, the current generation of
electric cars are starting to persuade picky consumers.
As well as development on the road, electric vehicles are taking to the seas and skies. Electric
boats are among the oldest methods of electric travel, having enjoyed several decades of popularity
from the late 19th to the early 20th century before petrol-powered outboard motors took over. Now, the
global drive for renewable energy sources is bringing electric boats back. Steps towards electric air
travel are also being made, with Airbus and NASA among the organizations developing and testing
battery-powered planes.
Electric vehicles do not produce any emissions (排放). If the US could replace 87 percent of its
cars with electric vehicles, it would reduce the national demand for petrol by 61 percent. That said, as
many countries continue to increase their use of renewable energy sources, electric vehicles will
become even cleaner.
28. What does the underlined word “hurdle” in Paragraph 2 probably means?
A. Aim. B. Problem. C. Result. D. Step.
29. Why did many people refuse to buy the electric cars in the past?
A. They were dependable. B. They were not widely promoted.
C. They were expensive. D. They couldn’t travel at a high speed.
30. What is the function of Paragraph 4?
A. To introduce the history of electric travel.
B. To explain why the world needs more electric cars.
C. To show why more people have interest in electric cars.
D. To describe different ways electric vehicles can be used.
31. Which is the best title for this passage?
A. Driving into a Cleaner Future B. History of Electric Cars
C. Problems with Petrol and Diesel Cars D. Best Means of Transportation
D
In recent years, China has witnessed the growth of luxury brands. In this market, Chinese consumers
are now the largest spenders. It’s clear that a new generation of young, materialistic people is
increasingly relying on luxury brands to improve its self-image. I am a fashionist（时尚主义者）too, at
least in spirit — I love to look at clothes and shoes. But I don’t understand why people spend lots of
money on designer labels. When a young woman buys a handbag that costs two months of her salary,
that’s a scary thing.
What’s interesting is that scientists have found that having luxury things doesn’t lead to happiness.
Study after study has shown that although we want material things, when we get them we don’t suddenly
become “happy” people. In fact, a series of studies by Leaf Van Boven at the University of Colorado, US,
has shown that individuals who spend money on travel and similar experiences get more pleasure than
those who invest it in material things. That’s because experiences are more easily combined with a
person’s identity. If I travel to Yunnan, that adventure affects how I think in the future. My memories
become a part of me.
Moreover, as Van Boven has observed, young people who pursue happiness through “things” are
liked less by their peers. People prefer those who pursue happiness through experiences.
It’s natural to want to express yourself through your appearance. So my advice is: create a look that
isn’t tied to a designer label. Convey your own message. Take some lessons from the late Apple
co-founder Steve Jobs. He was always in Levis jeans and a black turtleneck. Mark Zuckerberg, founder
of Facebook, routinely appears in hoodies and sneakers. These people, successful people, have style.
You don’t have to break the bank to send a message about who you are. Take a trip. Go out into the
world. Then come back and confidently create your own signature look.
32. What can we infer from Paragraph 1?
A. The author enjoys buying luxury brands herself.
B. The author agrees to overspend money on material things.
C. The author is critical of youths tying their looks to designer labels.
D. The author finds it natural for fashionists to follow fashion trends.
33. What do Leaf Van Boven’s studies show?
A. People dislike those who love luxuries.
B. Traveling changes a person’s identity greatly.
C. Luxuries have a negative effect on people’s happiness.
D. Experiences can bring people more happiness than luxuries.
34. What is the author’s advice on expressing oneself?
A. Be selective about designer labels. B. Create your own personal unique style.
C. Choose simple and fashionable styles. D. Try styles like Mark Zuckerberg’s.
35. What is the main purpose of the article?
A. To prove how luxury leads to an unpleasant life.
B. To tell how to express yourself through appearances.
C. To report on a series of studies about luxuries and happiness.
D. To persuade readers to invest in experiences instead of luxuries.

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两
项为多余选项。
Here a few famous people may give you some helpful tips on how to choose the right books to
read.
Read books from past eras.
36 Otherwise, you’d be “completely dependent on the prejudices and fashions of your
times,” just as Albert Einstein put it. “Somebody who reads only newspapers and books of
contemporary authors looks to me like an extremely near-sighted person who dislikes eyeglasses,” he
said.
37
Reading too wide a variety in too short a time would keep you from forming a lasting impression.
Seneca the Younger suggested that “you must linger（逗留） among a limited number of master
thinkers, and digest their works rather than in larger quantities.”
Shop at secondhand bookstores.
Virginia Woolf believed the works in secondhand bookstores have an attraction. Browsing through
these books gives you the chance to run into something that traditional libraries can’t bring to you.
38
Check out authors’ reading lists.
American philosopher Mortimer J. Adler talked about how to choose books. He attached
importance to those that other authors consider worth reading. 39 “Trust their tastes.” said
Mortimer.
Make the final decision by yourself.
40 It’s you yourself who should choose what, how and when to read. Theodore Roosevelt
recommended choosing books on subjects that interest you and letting your mood guide you to your
next great read.
A. Interest is the best teacher.
B. Great authors are great readers.
C. Leave some room for older works.
D. Learn more about those great authors.
E. Don’t jump too quickly from book to book.
F. There’s no “best books” list that everyone should follow.
G. Usually they are much more selective in organizing their collections.
