【题目】X.任务型阅读 阅读短文,按要求完成各题

As mobile phones grow in popularity, telephone booths have become fewer in German cities. But a new project in Berlin is hoping to turn them into shelters for another endangered technology — books.

Konrad Kutt of the Institute for Sustainability in Education, Employment and Culture decided to start the BücherboXX project to improve reading in Berlin. They filled telephone booths that are about to be thrown away with books and put benches outside for people to sit down and take a reading break. “It teaches people about reusing in details, about sustainability (持续性) and also about improving learning,” said Kutt. These public bookshelves are in the streets of many cities across Germany. These libraries are supported by donations and taken care of by local volunteer groups. Each shelf holds around 200 books. It takes about six weeks to replace the old books with new ones.

Each of Berlin’s three current reading booths has been colorfully painted by students who are also responsible for building the benches and bookshelves inside the booths. The telephone booths themselves were bought from telephone companies that set to just throw them away.

Some community members keep an eye on the booths to prevent destroying and make sure they are often cleaned. In these libraries, people can read whatever they want to read. Local people who visit the booths are encouraged to leave one of their own books when they take a book with them. There are no sign-out sheets or rules for visitors to follow, like at a library because the BücherboXX system relies on trust and the community’s good will.

One woman named Petra Rücker, a 45-year-old social worker, stopped by to take a look at the books. “I come by here on the way to work but never have stopped by until now,” Rücker said. “It looks interesting.” This time, she left without a book. “But I will certainly be back here,” she said.

【题目】阅读下面的短文,从每小题所给的A,B,C三个选项中选出最佳选项。

I used to work in a lab for almost 10 years. It was a well-paid job, and a “not exactly challenging(有挑战性的)but safe job”. Then everything changed in 1998 when my best friend introduced me to a man who wanted to open up a computer school.

They knew I had a speech problem. I stuttered(口吃).

For me a simple sentence was going to take longer than it should.“ Hello, how are you doing?” can take you 3 seconds(秒), while it would take me 10 seconds. And the man just asked me if I wanted to stand in front of strangers and speak about computer technology.

Then the most amazing thing happened...

I said yes!

I have always felt I know a better way to describe difficult concepts(概念) to listeners than a lot of other people. I’m good at explaining things when I write about it. So I took the class syllabus(教学大纲)and rewrote it MY WAY! I did all I could to make it easier to understand.

In my first class I got the familiar(熟悉的)funny looks from people when I started speaking. But after 15 minutes, people were asking smart questions that showed they understood. At the end of the class when people were leaving, they shook my hand and thanked me.

You won’t get THAT from a “ not exactly challenging but safe job”!
