April 27 brings Independent Bookstore Day, the biggest bookstore celebration of the year when bookstores around the country host events and offer discounts. Here’s a selection of bookstores we love writing about.
Books on Main
Books on Main feels like you’re reading inside a tree-house in a Wisconsin forest. It opened in June 2023. Local residents have a welcoming place decorated with wood, leaves and comfortable furniture to gather and discover new and beloved books.
Off the Beaten Path Bookstore
First opened more than 30 years ago, Off the Beaten Path has been through three sets of owners and three locations. Current owners Mike and Danielle Skov say one thing has never changed: The promise to be a welcoming and inclusive （包容的） space. They partner with local schools, libraries and nonprofits to reach as much of the community as possible.
Changing Hands Bookstore
Too popular to be called a hidden gem （寶石）, this Arizona jewel recently celebrated its 50th anniversary. It first opened in a 500-square-foot space in 1974. It hosts author events, poetry discussion groups and offers a Trade Counter where customers can bring in gently used books for store credit.
The Last Chapter Book Shop
The Last Chapter is an all-romance bookstore in Chicago that opened in 2023. The store hosts author events along with community mixers like Blind Date with a Book, where you wrap one of your favorite books and “trade” it with a fellow book fan in hopes of finding a new favorite and a new friend.

Sia Godika was 13 when she noticed the barefoot （赤腳的） children of construction workers at a building site near her house in the upscale Koramangala district of Bangalore, India.
“They were just walking around that building site with their feet bare, hard, dirty and bleeding, as though it was an everyday practice for them,” reflects Sia, now 17. And it was in that moment that Sia realised the troubling contrast （對(duì)比） to her own life.
She went back home, looked at her feet and opened her wardrobe doors, seeing shoes—many of which hadn’t been worn for months or years—piled up high. She headed to her mother’s wardrobe next, dusting off cobwebs from some shoes. Then she rushed to give them all for free to the same children she saw at the building site.
Later that year, with the help of her parents and community volunteers, Sia founded Sole Warriors, a charity dedicated to providing footwear to those in need, epitomised by its motto: “Donate a shoe, save a soul.”
The idea, which started as a dinner conversation with her parents, quickly grew. After she spread the word with posters and social media, emails from people who wanted to help came flooding in. Now in its fifth year, the organization runs distribution （分送） drives in which Sole Warriors collects used footwear, refurbishes （翻新） it and donates the finished products to people in need.
That need, says Sia, is endless. In a world where the poorest half of the population owns just two per cent of the wealth, an estimated 300 million people can’t afford footwear. Of the nearly 24 billion shoes made every year, shockingly more than 90 per cent end up in landfills （廢物填埋場(chǎng)）.
In its first distribution drive, Sole Warriors collected and gave out 700 pairs of shoes. Today that number stands at around 28,000 across four countries, including the United States, China and Liberia, thanks to the hard work of a core team of about 80 volunteers.
But the organization’s growth wasn’t without its challenges. When it came to looking for partners, such as a company that would do the refurbishments （翻新） free, Sia faced one difficulty after another before finding a partner in India’s Pressto Cobbler.
To honor her impact, in 2021 Sia was given the Diana Award, one of the most prestigious （聲譽(yù)高的） honors a young person can receive for social action. But her work isn’t done. “Our goal has always been to touch a million feet,” she says.
20. ________ inspired Sia to donate shoes to the children at the building site.
A. Her parents ’and community volunteers’ help
B. The sight of children without wearing shoes
C. The piles of shoes in her parents’ wardrobe
D. Her comfortable life in the upper class
21. The underlined word “dedicated” in para.4 can be replaced with ________.
A. addicted B. exposed C. opposed D. devoted
22. What can be inferred about Sia’s charitable work
A. Sia met many challenges caused by Pressto Cobbler.
B. Sia is ambitious to expand her project by donating more shoes.
C. Sia was awarded Diana Award for her work at 20.
D. Sia’s project recycles 90% of used shoes in landfills.
23. Which of the following is probably the best title of the text
A. Task Achieved by Willpower B. Sufferings at Indian Building Site
C. Walking in Someone Else’s Shoes D. Favourite for the Diana Award
C
Everyone knows this: Slowly turn up the heat on a frog in a pot of water, and the frog won’t hop out. Unaware of the slight increase in heat, it will stay until —well, until it dies. When it comes to the effect of rising global temperatures on amphibians （兩棲動(dòng)物）, the frog-boiling story is more than just a metaphor （隱喻）.
Climate change is becoming one of the biggest threats to frogs and other amphibians, according to a major study published Wednesday in the journal Nature. Between 2004 and 2022, rising temperatures became the main reason why more than 100 amphibian species were nearly dying out.
The spread of disease among frogs and the destruction of their habitats have long been recognized as reasons why many amphibians are decreasing. But this new study establishes climate change as a major risk for amphibians around the world, too. The soft-skinned animals lack the fur and feathers to help adjust （調(diào)節(jié)） their temperature in this hotter and drier world.
Less attention is paid to frogs and other amphibians compared to more well-known groups like birds. But losing amphibians would be serious because they often act as a key link in the food web of ecosystems, wolfing insects down and, in turn, being eaten by larger predators （捕食者）. “Without those amphibians to fill that role, we will see the breakdown of this food web,” said Neam, who works for an Austin-based environmental group.
Luckily, habitat protection and other measures have been taken to help recover more than five dozen amphibians from Costa Rica to Malaysia. “It’s not all bad news,” said Jennifer Luedtke, an amphibian group leader with the International Union for Conservation of Nature. “But we really must build on this improvement and significantly increase the amphibian conservation.”
24. How is the topic introduced
A. By sharing a story. B. By raising a question. C. By explaining ideas. D. By listing facts.
25. What is the main reason for the decrease of amphibians according to the new study
A. The loss of habitats. B. The lack of feathers. C. The spread of disease. D. The rise of temperature.
26. What will happen if the number of amphibians decreases
A. Wolves will depend more on insects. B. Predators will be the key role of the web.
C. The ecosystem will become more diverse. D. The food chain will be destroyed.
27. How does Luedtke feel about the future of amphibians
A. Uncertain. B. Curious. C. Hopeful. D. Worried.
D
Free-riding means people can benefit from a service without paying anything. It also arises if people can get benefit without making equal contributions. So a free rider always enjoys the benefits of a resource or service while letting someone else do the work or do more work.
There are several effects of the free rider problem. The first is the Tragedy （悲劇） of the Commons, a situation in which individuals with access to a public resource act for their own benefit and, in doing so, finally use up the resource. For example, imagine that a group of people share a piece of land where they all graze （讓……吃草） their cattle. If each person just tries to increase their own short-term gain, they will let their cattle graze as much as possible. However, if everyone does this, the land will quickly become over-grazing and will not be able to support any cattle.
Another effect is that the free rider problem can lead to a situation in which people do not have access to important goods and services. This is because providers may not be able to get back the costs of providing the goods or services if too many people free ride. Imagine that a city decides to build a new hospital through donations. If too many people rely on others to donate, rather than donate themselves, then the hospital may not be built at all. This means that people who need medical care in the area may not have access to it.
There are several solutions to the free rider problem. Government solves the problem by collecting tax （稅） dollars to support public services. Theoretically, taxes are related to income, so fair cost-sharing can be munities can turn their public resource into a private or club resource, charging money to make sure everyone who uses it contributes to it. This will limit overuse and, over time, may even lead to altruistic （利他的） behavior. That is, many people may like the idea of making a small contribution to a resource that they use.
28. Which of the following may best show the nature of free-riding
A. Many hands make light work. B. Let George do it.
C. Every coin has two sides. D. Less is more.
29. What is one of the effects produced by the free rider problem
A. The costs of providing the goods and services are rising.
B. People tend to maximize their long-term gain.
C. A group of people have to share goods and services.
D. Individuals overuse a shared resource for personal gain.
30. How is paragraph 3 mainly developed
A. By giving an example. B. By explaining a definition.
C. By referring to a study. D. By making a comparison.
31. What is the main purpose of the passage
A. To call on the government to solve the free rider problem.
B. To inform the readers of the free rider problem.
C. To stress the importance of making donations.
D. To draw people’s attention to public services.

As Christmas decorations appeared in town, our parents called my two younger brothers and me together. At first, I thought someone had died, because I had never seen my parents look so sad. My brothers and I stood waiting for the awful news.
Mom hugged me as she murmured, “Christmas is going to be different this year. We won’t be having a tree or presents. We can barely afford food.” Dad, resting on the couch, wrapped the boys. “Things will change when I get back to work.”
My family was poorer than dirt. Dad, the only bread-earner in our family, worked in a coal mine. However, soon after returning to work at the end of a long strike, Dad was hurt in a rock fall that broke bones in his foot. Lying on the couch with the swollen （腫脹的） foot high on pillows, he didn’t talk or smile much. There was little to smile about. No work, no income.
At nine years old, I mothered my younger brothers: Rodney, aged six, and Stevie, three. We shared a small bedroom. That night, after our parents’ announcement, we talked.
Rodney began. “Erm, did you see how sad Mommy and Daddy looked I thought Mommy was gonna cry.”
“Me, too. Daddy’s foot’s ... this big” whispered Stevie, holding out his arms.
“Yeah ... We’re in hard times,” I said. “It makes Mommy and Daddy sad.”
“But we don’t have to be sad,” I added, hoping to cheer them up.
“Since there are still several weeks to go, maybe we can do something to cheer them up,” I said with overdone enthusiasm. The boys proposed, “We can take the money from our piggy bank ... earn some more ... and surprise them with gifts!”
“I can run errands （跑腿） for Aunt ... erm ... and neighbors to earn money,” I offered.
“Yeah,” Rodney added, “Stevie and I can return bottles and save the money ... instead of buying candy!” He pushed Stevie gently with his elbow.
“Yeah!” Stevie clutched his hands together.
We had a plan!
Until they felt sleepy, I guided my little brothers (especially Stevie) in ways to keep our secret. “Don’t talk about it during the day.”
注意：續(xù)寫詞數(shù)應(yīng)為150左右。
We awoke in the morning, transforming from sad children to the secret agents （特工） on an important plan! On Christmas morning, we hurried into the living room and handed the gifts to Mommy and Daddy.

Dear George,
Hearing you are learning Tang poetry, I’m writing to share with you some useful information about it .

To learn Tang poetry, you’d better first know about the poet and explore the backgrounds of a poem. Besides, reading aloud and grasping the rhythms helps you understand the meaning of a poem better. Be patient because reading a poem can be lifelong job.
Hope my advice will help you.
Yours sincerely,

We awoke in the morning, transforming from sad children to the secret agents on an important plan! In the following weeks, we were occupied with activities: I was delivering newspapers across the neighborhood while my younger brothers were collecting bottles. Having earned enough money, we happily went shopping. A new apron was a must for mom, and for Dad, branded ointments （膏藥） could greatly help relieve his pain. On the night of Christmas Eve, I tossed and turned, picturing mom’s and dad’s smiling faces when receiving our gifts.
On Christmas morning, we hurried into the living room and handed the gifts to Mommy and Daddy. They could hardly believe their eyes! Surprised and confused, they flooded us with many questions: “How did you get the money for gifts ” “Who of you got the amazing idea ” ... As we explained how we had planned and how we had carefully chosen the gifts, their faces changed into expressions of movement. Then, with glistening tears in eyes, Mom and Dad hugged and kissed us. This Christmas morning has brought our family closer.

M: We are back, doctor. Here is the report of my father’s CT examination.
W: Let me see.
M: My father has been feeling weak on his right side for a whole week. This morning, he cannot even say a complete sentence.
W: Well, the report shows a small bleeding point here in the brain. But it is not a serious issue. We’ll keep him in hospital for further observation.

and she will guide you to the Inpatient Department.

W: Today at work I had a terrible time. I am worried about to go to work tomorrow.
M: What happened Were you late or something I was late yesterday because of the train, but my boss was late, too. He said we both should be punished for being late. So we cleaned up our messy work kitchen.
W: That doesn’t make me feel better. I think I ruin an important machine. The papers I was putting in to copy were held together by a piece of metal. The machine made a horrible sound and then stopped working.
M: It will be OK, I think. However, I doubt if they would make you pay for it.
W: I’m afraid not. The company who makes it has a policy to fix it
M: So what to worry about
W: Well, it will surely leave a bad impression on my boss.

People who live in cities usually take their dirty clothes to a laundry place called a “l(fā)aundromat”. These public businesses are usually open from 9:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. A smaller laundromat might have 12 washers and 12 dryers. while a larger one might have twice that number.
Most places do not have any employees there, as there are simple instructions posted near the machines and everything can be done without assistance. Most people bring their own washing soap, but there is often a machine that sells small packages in case you run out or forget yours.
During the weekend, it can be hard to find an open machine but it is much easier during the week. Many laundry places have TVs, magazines, or free Wi-Fi. Recently, many laundry places have added cafés or bars. Because people usually spend a few hours doing their laundry, having a drink or a meal is a convenient and fun way to pass the time. Of course, when so many people are washing their clothes close to each other, it is easy to make mistakes.

【導(dǎo)語(yǔ)】本文是一篇記敘文。文章講述了13歲的女孩Sia Godika看見建筑工人的孩子們沒有鞋子穿后，在父母和社區(qū)志愿者的幫助下成立了慈善組織SoleWarriors，致力于為有需要的人提供鞋子。
【20題詳解】
細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段“ “They were just walking around that building site with their feet bare, hard, dirty and bleeding, as though it was an everyday practice for them,” reflects Sia, now 17.
And it was in that moment that Sia realized the troubling contrast to her own privilege. （現(xiàn)年17歲的希雅回憶說(shuō)： “他們光著腳在建筑工地走來(lái)走去，腳又硬又臟，還流著血，就好像這是他們每天都要做的事情。”就在那一刻，西婭意識(shí)到這與她自己的特權(quán)形成了令人不安的對(duì)比）”和第三段中“Then she rushed to give them all away to the same children she saw at the building site. （然后她趕緊把它們都送給了她在建筑工地看到的孩子們）”可知，看到孩子們沒有穿鞋的情景，Sia決定將鞋子捐贈(zèng)給建筑現(xiàn)場(chǎng)的孩子們。故選B項(xiàng)。
【21題詳解】
詞句猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)畫線詞所在的句子“Later that year, with the help of her parents and community volunteers, Sia founded Sole Warriors, a charity dedicated to providing footwear to those in need （那年晚些時(shí)候，在父母和社區(qū)志愿者的幫助下，Sia成立了Sole Warriors慈善機(jī)構(gòu)，致力于為有需要的人提供鞋子）”可推知，該慈善機(jī)構(gòu)致力于要為有需要的人提供鞋子，畫線詞意思應(yīng)該是“致力于”，可被devoted替換。故選D項(xiàng)。
【22題詳解】
推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段中“But her work isn’t done. “Our goal has always been to touch a million feet,” she says. （但她的工作還沒有完成。她說(shuō)：“我們的目標(biāo)一直是達(dá)到100只腳。”）”可推知，Sia雄心勃勃地希望通過(guò)捐贈(zèng)更多的鞋子來(lái)擴(kuò)大她的慈善事業(yè)。故選B項(xiàng)。

24-27ADDC
【導(dǎo)語(yǔ)】這是一篇說(shuō)明文。文章主要說(shuō)明了研究發(fā)現(xiàn)氣候變化在導(dǎo)致兩棲動(dòng)物數(shù)量減少，分析了兩棲動(dòng)物數(shù)量減少會(huì)帶來(lái)的影響。
【24題詳解】
推理判斷題。根據(jù)第一段“Everyone knows this: Slowly turn up the heat on a frog in a pot of water, and the frog won’t hop out. Unaware of the slight increase in heat, it will stay put until —well, until it dies. When it comes to the effect of rising global temperatures on amphibians （兩棲動(dòng)物）, the frog-boiling fable is more than just a metaphor （隱喻）. （每個(gè)人都知道這一點(diǎn)：在一鍋水里慢慢地給青蛙加熱，青蛙不會(huì)跳出來(lái)。沒有意識(shí)到熱量的輕微增加，它會(huì)一直呆在那里，直到——嗯，直到它死去。當(dāng)談到全球氣溫上升對(duì)兩棲動(dòng)物的影響時(shí)，煮青蛙的寓言不僅僅是一個(gè)比喻）”可知，文章通過(guò)分享故事引入。故選A。
【25題詳解】
細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段“Between 2004 and 2022, rising temperatures became the primary reason why more than 100 amphibian species were nearly dying out. (2004年至2022年間，氣溫上升成為100多種兩棲動(dòng)物瀕臨滅絕的主要原因）”可知，根據(jù)這項(xiàng)新研究，導(dǎo)致兩棲動(dòng)物數(shù)量減少的主要原因是溫度的升高。故選D。
【26題詳解】
細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段“Less attention is paid to frogs and other amphibians compared to more well-known groups like birds. But losing amphibians would be serious because they often act as a key link in the food web of ecosystems, wolfing insects down and, in turn, being eaten by larger predators （捕食者）. “Without those amphibians to fill that role, we will see the breakdown of this food web,” said Neam, who works for an Austin-based environmental group. （與鳥類等更知名的群體相比，青蛙和其他兩棲動(dòng)物受到的關(guān)注較少。但是失去兩棲動(dòng)物將是災(zāi)難性的，因?yàn)樗鼈兺ǔＪ巧鷳B(tài)系統(tǒng)食物網(wǎng)的關(guān)鍵環(huán)節(jié)，它們吞噬昆蟲，反過(guò)來(lái)又被更大的捕食者吃掉。 “沒有這些兩棲動(dòng)物來(lái)填補(bǔ)這個(gè)角色，我們將看到這個(gè)食物網(wǎng)的崩潰，”在奧斯汀一家環(huán)境組織工作的尼姆說(shuō)）”可知，如果兩棲動(dòng)物的數(shù)量減少，食物鏈將被破壞。故選D。
【27題詳解】
推理判斷題。根據(jù)“ “It’s not all bad news,” said Jennifer Luedtke, an amphibian group leader with the International Union for Conservation of Nature. “But we really must build on this improvement and significantly increase the amphibian conservation.” ( “也不全是壞消息，”國(guó)際自然保護(hù)聯(lián)盟兩棲動(dòng)物小組負(fù)責(zé)人珍妮弗·呂德克說(shuō)。 “但我們真的必須在這一改善的基礎(chǔ)上，大幅增加對(duì)兩棲動(dòng)物保護(hù)。”）”可知，呂德克對(duì)兩棲動(dòng)物的未來(lái)充滿希望。故選C。
28-31 BDAB
【導(dǎo)語(yǔ)】本文是一篇說(shuō)明文。文章客觀地解釋了“搭便車”現(xiàn)象的概念、所帶來(lái)的影響以及提出的一些解決措施。
【28題詳解】
推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章第一段“Free-riding means people can benefit from a service without paying anything. It also arises if people can get benefit without making equal contributions. So a free rider always enjoys the benefits of a resource or service while letting someone else do the work or do more work. （搭便車意味著人們無(wú)需支付任何費(fèi)用就可以從一項(xiàng)服務(wù)中獲益。如果人們不做出同等的貢獻(xiàn)就能獲得利益，也會(huì)出現(xiàn)這種情況。所以搭便車者總是享受某種資源或服務(wù)的好處，而讓別人做這些工作或做更多的工作）”可知，選項(xiàng)B “Let George do it. （讓喬治來(lái)做吧。）”最能體現(xiàn)搭便車的本質(zhì)，意味著讓別人去做事，而自己享受成果，符合搭便車者不付出成本卻享受利益的行為特點(diǎn)。故選B。
【29題詳解】
細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第二段中的“There are several effects of the free rider problem. The first is the Tragedy （悲劇） of the Commons, a situation in which individuals with access to a public resource act in their own interest and, in doing so, finally use up the resource. （搭便車問(wèn)題有幾個(gè)影響。第一種是“公共地悲劇”，在這種情況下，擁有公共資源的個(gè)人為了自己的利益而行動(dòng)，最終耗盡了資源）”可知，搭便車問(wèn)題產(chǎn)生的影響之一是共享資源因個(gè)人追求私利而被過(guò)度使用。故選D。
【30題詳解】
推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章第三段“Another effect is that the free rider problem can lead to a situation in which people do not have access to important goods and services. This is because providers may not be able to get back the costs of providing the goods or services if too many people free ride. Imagine that a city decides to build a new hospital through donations. If too many people rely on others to donate, rather than donate themselves, then the hospital may not be built at all. This means that people who need medical care in the area may not have access to it. （另一個(gè)影響是搭便車問(wèn)題可能導(dǎo)致人們無(wú)法獲得重要商品和服務(wù)的情況。這是因?yàn)槿绻嗳嗣赓M(fèi)乘車，供應(yīng)商可能無(wú)法收回提供商品或服務(wù)的成本。想象一下，一個(gè)城市決定通過(guò)捐贈(zèng)建立一所新醫(yī)院。如果太多的人依靠別人來(lái)捐贈(zèng)，而不是自己捐贈(zèng)，那么醫(yī)院可能根本就建不起來(lái)。這意味著該地區(qū)需要醫(yī)療服務(wù)的人可能無(wú)法獲得醫(yī)療服務(wù)）”可知，第三段通過(guò)舉例說(shuō)明了免費(fèi)搭車問(wèn)題的一個(gè)影響，即假設(shè)一個(gè)城市試圖通過(guò)捐贈(zèng)建立新醫(yī)院的情景來(lái)闡述如果太多人期望他人捐款而非自己行動(dòng)，可能會(huì)導(dǎo)致醫(yī)院建不成的結(jié)果。因此，該段落主要通過(guò)舉例子展開論述。故選A。
【31題詳解】
推理判斷題。通讀全文，尤其是由文章第一段“Free-riding means people can benefit from a service without paying anything. It also arises if people can get benefit without making equal contributions. So a free rider always enjoys the benefits of a resource or service while letting someone else do the work or do more work. （搭便車意味著人們無(wú)需支付任何費(fèi)用就可以從一項(xiàng)服務(wù)中獲益。如果人們不做出同等的貢獻(xiàn)就能獲得利益，也會(huì)出現(xiàn)這種情況。所以搭便車者總是享受某種資源或服務(wù)的好處，而讓別人做這些工作或做更多的工作）”和最后一段中“There are several solutions to the free rider problem. （有幾種解決搭便車問(wèn)題的方法）”可知，文章整體介紹了什么是搭便車問(wèn)題、它產(chǎn)生的幾個(gè)效應(yīng)以及針對(duì)這一問(wèn)題的幾種解決方案。其主要目的是告知讀者搭便車問(wèn)題的存在及其影響，以及可能的解決辦法。故選B。

A lot of professional classes cost money. （在線搜索由專業(yè)藝術(shù)家開辦的課程——這些都是提高你技能的好方法。很多專業(yè)課程都要花錢）”說(shuō)明很多課程需要花錢，F(xiàn)項(xiàng)中classes是關(guān)鍵詞，F(xiàn)項(xiàng)“然而，一些大學(xué)提供免費(fèi)的藝術(shù)課程”與上文形成轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系，進(jìn)一步提供更優(yōu)化的建議，符合題意。故選F。

【36題詳解】
下文“Instead, love and accept your art for what it is instead of expecting it to be an expert right away. （相反，要熱愛并接受你的藝術(shù)，而不是期望它立即達(dá)到專業(yè)水平）”說(shuō)明要熱愛藝術(shù)，
