Most parents, I suppose, have had the experience of reading a bedtime story to their children. And they must have   1  how difficult it is to write a   2   children's book. Either the author has aimed too   3  so that the children can't follow what is in his (or more often, her) story,   4  the story seems to be talking to the readers.

    The best children's books are   5  very difficult nor very simple, and satisfy both the   6  who hears the story and the adult who  7  it. Unfortunately, there are in fact   8  books like this,   9  the problem of finding the right bedtime story is not   10  to solve.

    This may be why many of books regarded as   11   of children's literature were in fact written for   12    “Alice's Adventure in Wonderland” is perhaps the most   13  of this.

    Children, left for themselves, often   14  the worst possible interest in literature. Just leave a child in bookshop or   15  and he will   16  willingly choose the books written in an imaginative way, or have a look at most children's comics, full of the stories and jokes which are the  17  of teachers and right-thinking parents.

    Perhaps we parents should stop trying to brainwash children into   18  our taste in literature. After all children and adults are so   19  that we parents should not expect that they will enjoy the   20  books. So I suppose we'll just have to compromise over that bedtime story.

  I was about eight years old at the time.I went into the store with my mother to do some shopping.On that particular day.I must have found my way to the food department wherethe incident took place.

  The manager heard the noise and came rushing over tosee what had happened.When he appeared,I was on myknees looking at some of the cartons to see if any of the egg were broken,but to him it looked as though I was the on who just did it.He severely reprimanded me and wanted meto pay for any broken eggs.I tried to explain,but it did no good.Even though I quickly forgot all about the incident,it is plain that the manager did not.

  Dog owners now have a little help understanding their furry friends. A new device called Bow-Lingual “translates” dog barks into English, Korea or Japanese.

  Bow-Lingual's Japanese inventors spent much time and money-analyzing dog barks. They found that dog noises can be broken down into six different emotions: happiness, sadness, frustration, anger, assertion and desire.

  Part of the Bow-Lingual device hangs on the dog's collar. The other part is a handle-held unit for the owner. When the dog barks, the unit displays translated phrases.

  Some people have scoffed at Bow-Lingual. “Who would pay US $ 120 to read a dog's mind?” they ask.

  But those who have purchased Bow-Lingual praise the device. Pet owner Keiko Egawa, of Japan, says it helps her empathize with her dog, Harry. “Before we go to the par, he always says he wants to play,” says Egawa, “and after a walk, he always says he is hungry.”

  Bow-Lingual is riot yet available in Chinese. So you'd better keep studying Studio Classroom, or soon your dog may know more English than you do!

1.This passage is mainly talking about ________.

[  ]

A.Bow-Lingual's inventors

B.dog barks and their different emotions

C.talking dogs

[  ]

A.Dog owners now can understand their dogs better.

B.Bow-Lingual is a new device that enables dogs to talk in English, Korean or Japanese.

C.More and more Chinese dog owners would keep studying Studio Classroom in order to know more English than their dogs.

3.What does “scoffed at” mean in the 3rd paragraph?

[  ]

A.shouted at
B.questioned at

閱讀理解

  Shopping is not as simple as you may think!There are all sorts of tricks at play each time we reach out for that particular brand of product on the shelf.Colouring, for example, varies according to what the producers are trying to sell.Health foods are packaged(包裝)in greens, yellows or browns because we think of these as healthy colours.Ice cream packets are often blue and expensive goods, like chocolates, are gold or silver.

  When some kind of pain killer was brought out recently, researchers found that the colours turned the customers off because they made the product look weak and ineffective.

  Eventually, it came on the market in a dark blue and white package-blue because we think of it as safe, and white as calm.The size of a product can attract a shopper.But quite often a bottle doesn't contain as much as it appears to.

  It is believed that the better-known companies spend, on average, 70 per cent of the total cost of the product itself on packaging!

  The most successful producers know that it's not enough to have a good product.The founder of Pears soap, who for 25 years has used pretty little girls to promote(推銷)their goods, came to the conclusion:“Any fool can make soap, but it takes a genius to sell it.”
