The Chinese government has a policy called “Reading for All”, a move to create better reading habits among the population.
Realizing the importance of reading in national strength, China has gradually raised “Reading for All” as a national strategy(策略).
There are still problems, however, such as a lower reading rate compared with the world’s main countries, less public resources, and mixed quality of reading materials. A national survey showed that Chinese people read 3.26 e-books and 4.58 paper books on average in 2019, compared with an average of 16 books in Europe and the United States. The United states introduced the Reading Excellence Act and the No Child Left Behind Act. The Republic of Korea and Japan have also introduced laws to call on reading.
Our country encourages schools, colleges and universities to open their libraries to the public, and calls on bookstores to offer reading space and organize reading for people.
Reading is not just an important professional skill. It is also a way to enjoy informative(教育性的), creative, and inspiring works in literature that enrich our life experiences. Like any skill worth mastering, a reading habit requires time and dedication(全身心的投入) to develop. It is, however, a lifelong source of enjoyment and entertainment and a good hobby for anyone who wants to pick up a book.
57. What is “Reading for All”
A. It’s a move to buy books. B. It’s a move to go to the libraries.
C. It’s a move to join reading clubs. D. It’s a move to create better reading habits.
58. China has gradually raised “Reading for All” because ________.
A. reading is important in national strength B. there are many problems in reading
C. Chinese people read fewer books than Europeans and Americans
D. Japan and America introduced laws to call on reading
59. What does the underlined word “enrich” mean
A. get worse B. make better C. become busy D. feel special
60. What’s the main idea of the passage
A. Reading is a waste of time. B. Reading is hard to do.
C. Reading is an important hobby. D. Reading is difficult for kids.

We can’t remember clearly since when we started to take our mobiles to a dinner table. This happens a lot, especially when we eat out. Once a dish comes, instead of lifting our chopsticks, we take out our mobiles and click(点击). Later, we post the photos onto Weibo or WeChat, waiting to be “liked”. Then we check our mobiles from time to time during the meal, to see whether we get “liked” or not. We just cannot leave our mobiles for only a meal.
Does that sound familiar(熟悉的) to you Do you do that often If not, how do you feel when others do that when having dinner with you
A recent study suggests that what we are used to doing is not so good. Spending time taking photos of food makes the food less pleasant. To test this, some researchers did an experiment. Some people were asked to take photos before they could enjoy food. As a result, it showed that the more photos they took, the less delicious the food seemed to them. So, why not stop taking photos and just enjoy the food in front of you
Besides the scientific result, there are also some other bad influences of taking photos of food before meals. After posting the photos onto the Internet, one will not be able to control himself and check his mobile many times. “Does everyone like my photos I hope a lot of people like them!” It seems that your mobile secretly calls your name all the time, even when you are with real people.
So, next time you go out to have dinner with your family or friends, how about not taking photos of food Let the food be delicious as it is and share your life with people around you. Trust me, it will be a wonderful time.
61. From the passage, what happens a lot at the dinner table nowadays
A. People take photos of food and post them before eating. B. ~ learn from each other how to cook dishes.
C. People like taking photos with friends or families. D. People talk about their Weibo or WeChat.
62. What is the result according to the experiment some researchers did
A. the more photos they took, the more cheerful they became
B. the more photos they took, the more interested they were in the food
C. the more photos they took, the less delicious the food seemed to them
D. the more photos they took, the less “liked” they got on Weibo or WeChat
63. What does the fourth paragraph talk about
A. The reasons for checking your mobiles.
B. Some other bad influences of taking photos of food before meals.
C. The tips of making others like your photos on the Weibo.
D. The ways of posting the photo onto the Internet.
64. Which of the following is the writer’s opinion
A. We take out our mobiles and click when a dish comes.
B. We check our mobiles from time to time during the meal.
C. Spending time taking photos of food makes the food less pleasant.
D. Some people were asked to take photos before they could enjoy food.
65. What can we learn from the passage
A. Take photos of food in order to have a wonderful life.
B. Take photos of delicious food and share them with others.
C. Remember to have dinner with our family and friends at home.
D. Enjoy the life with people around us instead of taking photos of food.
IX.任务型阅读(共5小题，每小题2分，计10分)
Shyness is a kind of fear. People who are shy always worry too much about what people think of them or embarrassing(使...尴尬) themselves in some way in front of others. How can we overcome shyness
Have a good posture(姿势)
The way a person holds themselves says a lot about that person. People with sloped(倾斜的) shoulders don’t think of themselves as important. So stand up straight, shoulders back, keep your head up, and always make eye contact(接触). By practicing good posture, you will feel you have the ability to do things well.
Increase your walking speed
You can tell if a person is confident by the way they walk. People who walk in a slow way, or look at the ground while walking usually have no confidence in themselves. While people who have confidence in themselves walk faster. That is because they have important things to do, friends to meet, places to go, and so on. So walk a little faster, head held up, and look straight ahead.
Do some exercise
Exercise increases your energy levels in the body. That will put you in a more positive(积极的) state of mind. By taking exercise, you will feel sure of yourself. It is better to do some exercise than just watch TV all day.
Do things that make you feel good about yourself
This can be anything that you really like doing such as going to the theater, listening to music, traveling, helping someone out with a problem, etc.
