B. Choose the words or expressions and complete the passage（选择最恰当的单词或词语完成短文）

If you are reading this article in class, you are probably trying to read it quickly. You have been taught to skim and scan, to 75 key words so as to understand the main idea of the article and the important points in the article. Skimming and scanning is a good method when you are pressed for time, such as when you are taking an exam, but, today, many people skim and scan everything and they have 76 the ability to enjoy reading.

In response to this, something called the “slow reading movement” has become popular. The idea is that people should 77 their computers and mobile phones for half an hour or forty-five minutes each day and enjoy reading a good book —slowly! In many cities there are even slow reading clubs where members go to a café, not to discuss books, but to sit quietly with each other, drink coffee and just read.

Reading, of course, isn’t easy. You have to sit still, for one thing. And it can seem 78 when compared to the excitement of playing video games. But, for me, reading has been a long-lasting 79 in my life. From the age of ten, when I got my first library card, I’ve enjoyed

the company of pirates and heroes, of evil criminals and clever detectives, of thousands of interesting people I would have never met in real life. Reading provided me with escape, but it also 80 me to understand the world around me. It was an education in a classroom that had no walls.

In your classroom, you have learned to read “fast.” Outside of the classroom, you should try to learn to read “slowly.” You may be surprised at how much you enjoy it. ( )75. A) care for B) look for C) show off D) prepare for ( )76. A) lost B) improved C) shown D) seen ( )77. A) turn on B) pay for C) shut off D) play with ( )78. A) useless B) exciting C) dangerous D) boring ( )79. A) pleasure B) skill C) problem D) moment ( )80. A) required B) enabled C) prevented D) thanked

What kind of story is most exciting? What story keeps you reading u 81 the very end? The answer is the detective story.

Detective stories are probably the most written, read and discussed stories in the world. They can be novels, animation and movies. When we start reading a detective story, we always wish to find out the truth before we reach the end. But it can be quite difficult to s _______ 82 the problem as quickly as the detective does. Paying attention to the following elements may help you find the truth. Motive (动机)

Motive is the reason b 83 a crime. Some common motives are money, love, revenge and hiding a secret. Does this person have a motive? This is a question always asked by detectives. To answer that, detectives would look into one’s personal relationships and past experience. People w 84 a motive can be trusted. Suspect

Suspects are those who may have done the crime. Usually there is more than one suspect in a case. Detectives have to find out the real criminal a ___ 85 them. Suspects with different sex, ages, jobs and personalities often confuse the readers. Clue

Clues are the most important things in finding out the real criminal. Clues can be very small things, such as hair, mud or a piece of paper from a diary. Clues don’t lead d 86 ____ to the truth. Detectives use reasoning to find out what those clues truly mean, and put them together to find the truth. Alibi (不在场证明)

An alibi is a special kind of evidence. It means a proof of your not being at the crime scene when the crime took place. For example, if you are having dinner with a friend when the crime happens, your friend’s words are your alibi. However, an alibi can be forged (伪造). Your friend may have told a lie to p 87 you.

Detective stories are like puzzles. Following the elements of motive, suspect, alibi and clue can help us see what the detectives see and find out the truth in the end.

It was a Friday morning. I felt too lazy to drive my car, so I called a taxi. The taxi arrived at my door at 6:00 a.m. and I got into it. I was so busy looking for something in my bag that I didn’t pay any attention to the driver. I just said, “Please go right now! I’m in a hurry!”

A voice replied, “Yes, madam!”

I was surprised when I heard a female voice. I stopped what I was doing for a second and looked at the driver. The driver was a young lady of about thirty. It was my first time seeing a young lady driving a taxi!
