Dear Dad, Today, I spent a lot of time selecting and reading the Father’s Day cards at the shopping mall. They all had a special message that in some way or another reflected how I feel about you. Yet it occurred to me that not a single card said what I really wanted to say to you. You'll soon be 84 years old. Dad, and you and I will have had 55 Father's Days together. I haven’t always been with you on Father’s Day, but I’ve always been with you in my heart. You know, Dad, there was a time when we were separated by the generation gap(代沟). You stood on one side of the Great Divide and I on the other. The Father-Daughter Conflict shifted into high gear(档位) when you taught me to drive the old Dodge while I decided I would drive the Chevy whether you liked it or not. To my surprise, when the police officer sent me home after you reported the Chevy stolen, you were so tolerant(宽容的) about it because I had thought that would probably be the worst night of my life. Our relationship greatly improved when 1 married a man you liked,and things really turned around when we began making babies right and left. Somewhere along the line, the generation gap disappeared. I suppose I saw us and our relationship as aging together, rather like a fine wine. But the strangest thing happened last week. I was at a stop sign and I watched as you turned the corner in your car. It didn’t immediately occur to me that it was you because the man driving looked so elderly and weak behind the wheel of that huge car. Perhaps I saw your age for the first time that day. I guess what I’m trying to say, Dad, is what every son and daughter wants to say to their Dad today. Honoring a father on Father’s Day is about respect and sharing and acceptance and tolerance and giving and taking. It’s about loving someone more than words can say, and it's my wish that it never had to end. I love you, Dad. Love, Jenny 【1】How did Jenny probably feel on the night she was sent home by the police? A. Guilty. B. Nervous. C. Frightened. D. Disappointed. 【2】We can learn from the text that Jenny and her father ________. A. have been getting along very well B. kept in touch by writing to each other C. are separated due to the generation gap D. had a hard time understanding each other 【3】Why did Jenny feel strange when she saw her father last week? A. She didn’t expect to meet with him there. B. She seldom saw him driving that huge car. C. She had never realized his being old and weak. D. She had never seen him driving so slowly before. 【4】Jenny wrote his father this letter to ________. A. express her gratitude to him B. tell him about their conflicts C. say sorry for her being stubborn D. remind him of the early incident

The Forbidden City is well known for being full of Chinese cultural and historical relics. But Masters in the Forbidden City (《我在故宫修文物》)does not just focus on the stories of the past. Instead，the documentary movie，which came out in Chinese cinemas on Dec. 16, focuses on ordinary people—the restorers(修 复者)of relics and antiquities(古董). The stories are told at a slow and relaxed pace,reflecting the restorers’ work. Restoration of cultural relics and antiques can be time-consuming, and sometimes boring. Yet these restorers’ patience and peace of mind are especially precious in a society where everything is changing so fast. “If you choose this job，you have to stand hours of work sitting on a chair. You need to be quiet and get used to being quiet,”says Wang Jin'an ancient clock repair expert. A touching part of the documentary is the spirit of craftsmanship (工艺)in the restorers.“Years of humdrum work requires not only skill，but also faith and spirit, China Daily commented. Looking for preciseness and perfection, devoting yourself to work, patience, endurance(忍耐)，loneliness... All these qualities come from the craftsman spirit.” But unlike the popular idea of serious experts who sit around being serious,the documentary shows off the enthusiasm of the restorers. They play their guitars and make jokes about each other after a long day of restoration work. One scene that has been very popular with Internet users features a young female restorer riding a bicycle through the empty Forbidden City on a Monday. While she is doing this, a narrator says,”The last person to do this was Puyi,the last emperor of the Qing Dynasty.” Masters in the Forbidden City has proved wrong many people’s ideas about antique restorers,allowing them to realize that they are not old, dull professors, but people in their 40s, 30s and even 20s who can be quite pleasing to the eye. 【1】According to the text，what’s the main purpose of the documentary Masters in the Forbidden City? A. To show people how antiques are restored. B. To display relics seldom seen by ordinary people. C. To draw attention to Chinese antique restorers' lives. D. To praise the craftsmanship of Chinese antique restorers. 【2】According to Wang Jin,we can learn that ________. A. he often gets tired with his work B. there is no need to do restoration work fast C. antique restorers need to be patient and peaceful D. it takes years of hard work to adapt to antique restoration 【3】The underlined word “humdrum” probably means ________. A. boring B. different C. relaxing D. unusual 【4】The bicycle-riding scene in the documentary is used to ________. A. remind the audience of the last Qing emperor B. show the strange hobbies of young antique restorers C. encourage the young to consider a career in antique restoration in the future D. show that the documentary breaks from the old，dull image of antique restorers

Like a tired marriage.the relationship between libraries and publishers has long been dull. E- books, however，are causing heartache. Libraries know they need digital wares, but many publishers are too cautious about piracy(盗版)and lost sales to co-operate. Among the big six, only Random House and Harper Collins license e-books with most libraries. Publishers are wise to be nervous. Owners of e-readers (电子阅读器)are exactly the customers they need: book-lovers with money. If these people switch to borrowing e-books instead of buying them, what then? Electronic borrowing is awfully convenient. Unlike printed books, which must be checked out and returned to a physical library miles from where you live， book files can be downloaded at home. The files disappear from the device when they are due. E-lending is not simple, however. There are lots of different and often incompatible(不兼容的)e-book formats, devices and licenses. Most libraries use a company called OverDrive, which secures rights from publishers and provides e-books and audio files in every format. Yet publishers and libraries are worried by OverDrive s global market dominance (优势)，as the company can control fees and conditions. Publishers were annoyed when OverDrive cooperated with Amazon, the world's biggest online bookseller，last year. Owners of Amazon’s Kindle e- reader who want to borrow e-books from libraries are now redirected to Amazon’s website, where they must use their Amazon account to secure a loan. According to Pew,an opinion researcher, library users are a perfect market for Amazon. Late last year Amazon introduced its Kindle Owners' Lending Library, which lets its best customers borrow free one of thousands of popular books each month. Library supporters argue that book borrowers are also book buyers and that libraries are vital spaces for readers to discover new works. Many were cheered by a recent Pew survey»which found that more than half of Americans with library cards say they prefer to buy their e-books. So publishers keep adjusting their lending arrangements in search of the right balance. Random House raised its licensing price's earlier this year,and Harper Collins limits libraries to lending its titles 26 times. 【1】It can be inferred from Paragraph 1 that ________. A. several big publishers have sold e-books to libraries B. most publishers are hesitant to cooperate with libraries C. libraries are eager to keep strong relationship with publishers D. libraries and publishers face the same problem of e-books’ piracy 【2】Why are publishers worried that people will switch to electronic borrowing? A. E-books must be checked out and returned to libraries regularly. B. There is no time limit for the book files downloaded on the device. C. There are lots of different and incompatible e-book formats available. D. Book sales may drop sharply because of convenient electronic borrowing. 【3】We can learn from the text that ________. A. Amazon is adopting measures to win more customers B. e-books can be lent at libraries as many times as you like C. OverDrive distributes e-books and audio files to publishers D. over half of Americans are borrowing e-boo from libraries 【4】What is the best title for the text? A. The Hopeful Future of Publishing Business B. The Uncertain Economics of Lending E-books C. The Dull Relationship between Libraries and Publishers D. The Close Cooperation between OverDrive and Amazon
