Last year, the most-read children' s books at least in UK were almost all fantasy novels. But

 why is this the case? What. exactly does fantasy offer to young readers

     What' s important to point out here is that fantasy writing has come to be considered as

belonging to popular culture, and is therefore generally regarded as being of lower quality than

realism.

     This idea was formed in me during childhood by my mother, who believed that fantasy was

 "rubbish". She was always trying to persuade my two brothers to let go of their dog-eared copies of

 American author David Eddings' books and read something "proper".

    I had also met some people who were against reading fantasy. While living in Finland, where I joined a book club, I was told at my first meeting that the club didn't read "genre" books, which

 meant that realism was   in", but everything else including fantasy was "

    When it comes to the subject of children, discussions about which books are "better" for them often focus on the fantasy and realism debate, causing Professor John Stephens to write that: one of  the more curious sides to the criticism of children's literature is the strong wish to separate fantasy and realism into competing types, and to state that children prefer one or the other, or "progress" from fantasy to realism or vice versa(反之亦然).

    A quick survey of the big children's publishing trends over the past ten years confirms that

 fantasy is as popular as ever in the children' s book scene. From the 450 million copies of Harry

  Potter books sold over this period to the more recent Stephenie Meyer's Twilight series, it would seem that children are as enthusiastic about fantasy as ever before and rather than "progressing" out of  fantasy, the popularity of fantasy in the young adult market would suggest just the opposite.

28.What was the author's mother's attitude towards fantasy?

     A. Uncaring.                                               B. Cautious.

     C. Unfavorable.                                        D. Enthusiastic.

29.The book club the author joined in Finland _

    A. didn't. have a realistic aim

    B  was always full of people in and out

    C. had a tense atmosphere in most cases

    D. was not acceptive of various literature styles

30.According to Professor John Stephens, the critics of children's literature~—.

   A. want to separate children into different groups.

   B. want to divide fantasy and realism into separate groups

     C. aim to get children to progress from fantasy to realism

      D. wish to explore the difference between fantasy and realism

31.What is the main idea of the passage?

    A. Fantasy books are and continue to be popular among children.

    B, Realism books are the bestsellers of the present time.

    C. Young readers are moving away from fantasy .

D. Fantasy books are better than realism ones.

  Perhaps drawing inspiration from Spiderman, beachgoers in China' s eastern city of Qingdao

  have come up with a new way of protecting their skin from the sun. They call it the "face-kini". It was first sported by middle-aged women as a practical addition to their swimsuits, but now the face-kini  has gone global.

       New York-based style magazine CR Fashion Book, founded by former Vogue Paris editor

 Carine Roitfeld, recently published a photo shoot of models with pouting(撅起的) red lips, wearing face-kinis, chic swimsuits and fancy jewellery .

      The transformation of what' s considered the symbol of "old woman style" in China to high fashion has amused Internet users. In two days, the subject was widely spread on the Chinese Twitter,

Weibo.  "Chinese old women are at the centre of the global fashion world," said one comment. "It looks like bank robbers attacking the beach," others joked.

     When it comes to avoiding the sun, it seems Chinese creativity is unlimited. Apart from the face- kini, the Chinese use special UV-blocking sun umbrellas which can be attached to bike handles.

     There are also sun- blocking removable sleeves and Batman- style capes. The list goes on. On Chinese television, commercials for magic whitening creams are everywhere. White is seen as

 beautiful here, or as the old Chinese saying goes: "One touch of white covers 100 kinds of ugliness."

    It' s a curious contrast to the fact that people in many western countries pay for tanning(晒黑). Tanning salons are just now starting to take off in big Chinese cities, where western influences are

deeper.

    Liu Yupu, or "China tanning boss" as he goes by on Weibo, took the sudden popularity of face- kinis with a pinch of salt. He said: "These days, if you had just been to a tanning salon in China. Your parents and close friends may call you an idiot, but you'll also get plenty of praise." But can a beautifully-tanned woman turn as many heads as the face-kini on the Qingdao beach?

32. The "face-kini" has been worn in Qingdao -    '

    A. for quite a long time                              B. first by beachgoers

   C. to prevent swimmers drowning                       D. in honor of the movie Spiderman

33.According to the passage, the new invention "face-kini" is now considered as____.

    A. whitening cream    B. an old woman style

    C. a beautiful swimsuit    D. high fashion

 34.What does the underlined sentence in the last paragraph imply?

    A. Tanning is more popular in Western countries.

    B. White is seen as more beautiful in China

    C. The face-kini books less cool than a beautifully-tanned woman

    D. Tanning will not get. popular in China    

35.Which of the following is the best title for the text?

    A. Keeping your skin. fair    B. The changing fashion in Qingdao

C. Protecting  fair skin with "face-kini"    D. New attitudes towards beauty

There have been big changes in the attitudes of most parents over the last few years. Physical

 punishment is banned in schools in most countries, and in many countries. there are moves to ban all physical punishment of children even at home. 36.__        And they often use them to deal with certain misbehavior at certain ages.

    37.               One issue is that many parents find it very difficult to abandon physical

punishment completely. Parents argue that this was the way they were brought up and that it didn't do any harm to them. They believe that for the child's sake they have the right to discipline the child in any way they consider fit, including using some physical punishments. 38._          There is not much point reasoning with a screaming child in the supermarket.

    However there are several reasons why we should stop using physical punishment. One point is that most parents are not trained to deal with misbehaving children. They don't have enough resources or choices to handle the situation. 39.____Another point is that unless people are challenged or forced to change their belief, they may keep following negative habits. An example is seat belt use-now most people wear seat belts without thinking, while years ago the idea of using seat belts are strange to most people .In the same way, banning physical punishment will force people

to change their habits.

    In conclusion, parents have to change some of their belief and ideas about how children should be raised. It is possible to avoid the use of physical force. 40. 

    A. It is not difficult to change some negative habits.

    B. It is easy to find reasons to allow some physical punishments.

    C. However, many parents still believe that. They have the right to use some physical punishments.

    D. There are various ways to educate children.

    E. As a result, they immediately react by hitting the child even if there are other solutions to the

    problem.

    F. And doing so will help us move closer to the dream of removing violence from our society.

G. The other one is that physical punishment can be quick and effective.
