　　It happened to me recently. I was telling someone how much I had enjoyed reading Barack Obama’s Dreams From My Father and how it had changed my views of our President. A friend I was talking to agreed with me that it was ,in his words, “a brilliantly（精彩地）written book”. However, he then went on to talk about Mr Obama in a way which suggested he had no idea of his background at all. I sensed that I was talking to a book liar.

　　And it seems that my friend is not the only one. Approximately two thirds of people have lied about reading a book which they haven’t. In the World Book Day’s “Report on Guilty Secrets”, Dreams From My Father is at number 9. The report lists ten books, and various authors, which people have lied about reading, and as I’m not one to lie too often (I’d hate to be caught out ),I’ll admit here and now that I haven’t read the entire top ten . But I am pleased to say that, unlike 42 percent of people, I have read the book at number one, George Orwell’s 1984. I think it’s really brilliant.

　　The World Book Day report also has some other interesting information in it. It says that many people lie about having read Jane Austen, Charles Dickens, Fyodor Dostoevsky(I haven’t read him, but haven’t lied about it either )and Herman Melville.

　　Asked why they lied, the most common reason was to “impress” someone they were speaking to. This could be tricky if the conversation became more in –depth!

　　But when asked which authors they actually enjoy, people named J. k. Rowling, John Grisham, Sophie Kinsella (ah, the big sellers, in other words). Forty-two percent of people asked admitted they turned to the back of the book to read the end before finishing the story(I’ll come clean: I do this and am astonished that 58 percent said they had never done so).

　　64. How did the author find his friend a book liar?

　　A. By judging his manner of speaking.

　　B. By looking into his background.

　　C. By mentioning a famous name.

　　D. By discussing the book itself.

　　D. Dreams From My Father is hardly read.

　　66. By lying about reading, a person hopes to

　　.

　　A. control the conversation

　　B. appear knowledgeable

　　C. learn about the book

　　D. make more friends

　　【答案】

　　64. D

　　66. B

　　Given that many people's moods (情绪)are regulated by the chemical action of chocolate, it was probably only a matter of time before somebody made the chocolate shop similar to a drug store of Chinese medicine. Looking like a setting from the film Charlie&the Chocolate Factory, Singapore's Chocolate Research Facility (CRF) has over 100 varieties of chocolates.its founder is Chris Lee who grew up at his parents' corner store with one hand almost always in the jar of sweets.

　　If the CRF seems to be a smart idea, that's because Lee is not merely a seasoned salesperson but also head of a marketing department that has business relations with big names such as Levi's and Sony. That idea surely results in the imagination at work when it comes to making different flavored(味道)chocolates.

　　The CRF's produce is "green". made within the country and divided into 10 lines, with the Alcohol Series being the most popular. The Exotic Series一with Sichuan pepper, red bean (豆).cheese and other flavors一also does well and is fun to taste. And for chocolate snobs，who think that they have a better knowledge of chocolate than others, the Connoisseur Series uses cocoa beans from Togo, Cuba, Venezuela , and Ghana, among others.

　　44. What is good about chocolate?

　　A. It serves as a suitable gift.

　　B. It works as an effective medicine.

　　C. It helps improve the state of mind.

　　D. It strengthens business relations.

　　45. Why is Chris Lee able to develop his idea of the CRF?

　　A. He knows the importance of research.

　　B. He learns form shops of similar types.

　　C. He has the support of many big names

　　D. He has a lot of marketing experience.

　　46. Which line of the CRF produce sells best?

　　A. The Connoisseur Series.

　　B. The Exotic Series.

　　C. The Alcohol Series.

　　D. The Sichuan Series.

　　Last night I was driving from Harrisburg to Lewisburg，distance of about eighty miles. It was late. Several times I got stuck behind a slow-moving truck on a narrow road with a solid white line on my left, and I became increasingly impatient.

　　At one point along an open road, I came to a crossing with a traffic light. I was alone on the road by now, but as I drove near the light, it turned red and I made a stop. I looked left, right and behind me. Nothing. Not a car, no suggestion of car lamps, but there I sat, waiting for the light to change, the only human being for at least a mile in any direction.

　　I started wondering why I refused to run the light I was not afraid of being caught, because there was clearly no policeman around, and there certainly would have been no danger in going through it.

　　Much later that night, the question of why I'd stopped for that light came back to me. I think I

　　stopped because it's part of a contract(契约)we all have with each other. It's not only the law, but it is an agreement we have, and we trust each other to honor it: we don't go through red lights.

　　Trust is our first inclination(倾向).Doubting others does not seem to be natural to us. The whole construction of our society depends on mutual(相互)trust, not distrust. We do what we say we'll do; we show up when we say we'll show up; and we pay when we say we'll pay. We trust each other in these matters, and we're angry or disappointed with the person or organization that breaks the trust we have in them.

　　I was so proud of myself for stopping for the red light that night.

　　63. Why did the author get impatient while driving?

　　A. He was lonely on the road.

　　B. He was slowed down by a truck.

　　C. He got tired of driving too long.

　　D. He came across too many traffic lights.

　　64. What was the author's immediate action when the traffic light turned red?

　　A. Stopping still.

　　B. Driving through it.

　　C. Looking around for other cars.

　　D. Checking out for traffic police.

　　【答案】

　　63. B

　　64. A
