Londoners love a market. It's the combination of eating, chatting and browsing. Lovely stuff. Locals and tourists continue to rush to the capital's best stalls and these days there's a huge range of markets across London. Below you'll find the very best markets in London.
Broadway Market
Since being reopened in 2004, this Hackney Street market has become attractive to fashion lovers. It is packed every Saturday from 9 a. m. to 5 p. m. with arty students and East End creative types filling their large handbags with organic groceries, vintage clothes, fresh flowers, coffee, books and unusual handmade gifts.
Portobello Road Market
Portobello Road Market is really five markets in one, with different sections dedicated to second-hand goods, clothing and fashion, household essentials. You'll find the greatest range of antiques stalls on Saturdays.
Borough Market
Next to London Bridge, this food market has existed in some form since at least 1014. It's now best known as a foodie's paradise where Londoners come to buy top-quality meats, fish, fruit and veg, fresh-baked bread, cakes and sweet treats, oils and vinegar, and pretty much anything else they desire. Borough Market is open Monday to Saturday, with Saturday the busiest day.
Brick Lane Market
The streets of East London's Brick Lane are lined with stalls selling anything and everything on Sundays. You can find bargain fruit and veg, and electrical products, but this market's Unique Selling Point is its unpredictability (不可预测): You could bag a second-hand bargain, or spend hours selecting through inexpensive goods.

C.Those who like used items. D.Those who have no time.

Lamar Giles is the author of several praised novels and short stories for young adults. His most recent novel is called The Getaway (Scholastic Press, 2022).
I recently spoke with Giles via video. Born and raised in Virginia, he has had a passion for writing, he told me, since he was a child. "It was just amusing to me," he said.
Growing up in Hopewell, Giles experienced poverty and racism. He recalled a frightening moment when he and his friends were stopped by police officers. "They were pulling out really big, scary weapons," Giles recalled, "threatening us for no reason, other than the fact that we were young, Black children."
When Giles was in his early 20s, he met professional authors who showed him that he could make a living doing what he loved. At age 21, he saw one of his stories published in a little-known magazine. It took another decade for Giles to write and publish his first novel.
The challenges Giles met with when growing up proved to be a catalyst (催化剂) for his writing. "When something scares me, I'll write about it," he said. "If I write a story around it, it makes me feel better about the fear and anxiety."
The author's thriller (惊险小说) for young adults, Fake ID (Amistad Books for Young Readers, 2015), tells the story of Nick Pearson. The character, who is Black, faces racial profiling in his hometown, as Giles did. Nick is suspected of committing a crime because of his race and his "shady" neighborhood. In one scene, he is held at the county jail after being falsely accused by a governor of a state.
Giles is also a co-founder of We Need Diverse Books. The nonprofit organization promotes diversity initiatives in the publishing industry, supporting authors whose stories are often ignored. The goal, Giles said, is to enable all kids to see themselves in the books they read.
24.What does the underlined word "It" in paragraph 2 refer to
A.Video. B.Novel. C.Passion. D.Writing.
25.Which statement best describes Giles' childhood
A.He tried his best to write books. B.He lived in poverty and horror.
C.He lived under police protection. D.He got along well with his friends.
26.How did the challenges Giles met with affect him
A.They inspired him to write. B.They changed his attitude to life.
C.They prevented him turning a writer. D.They made him become strong-willed.
27.What do we know about the character of Fake ID
A.He was Giles' best friend. B.He devoted himself to writing.
C.He was wrongly imprisoned. D.He founded a nonprofit organization.
C
The Pleasanton Partnerships in Education Foundation (PPIE) was started in 1987 to raise money by organizing running events for local schools. Based in Pleasanton, California, a suburb of San Francisco, the nonprofit recently hosted a family-focused fitness event for the community.
"Our event helps to bring the community together," said Mindy Louie, events and outreach manager for PPIE. "We have more than 3,000 participants, hard-working volunteers, and viewers."
This year's fitness event took place on April 30 at the Alameda County Fairgrounds. It featured races of two miles, five kilometers, and 10 kilometers. A new Kids Challenge consisted of a quarter-mile run to encourage younger children to participate.
When asked to describe the run, 11-year-old Jeremy Louie said, "Fun, exciting, and enjoyable." Jeremy added that he was happy to help support his school.
The PPIE supports all 15 schools in the Pleasanton Unified School District, which includes more than 14,500 students and 800 teachers and staff. The nonprofit tries to fund education programs affected by budget cuts, while encouraging fitness and athleticism. Up to now, the PPIE has raised $1 million for the school district.
A local runners' group called the BURN Youth Development (or B. Y. D.) participated in the fundraiser. The B.Y. D. has since grown to include more than 100 youth members, 30 of whom ran in April's PPIE event. "The B.Y. D. was born in the darkest days of COVID-19 to keep kids running," explained Jerry Wu, the group's founder and lead coach. "Watching them running strong and happy makes me smile every time."
Wu encourages teamwork and teaches the students valuable running techniques. Eighth grader Ollie Gu, a B.Y. D. member, was one of the top finishers in the 10K run. He completed the race in 40 minutes and 46 seconds and won first place in the 12-15-year-old age group.
"The race was extremely rewarding," Ollie said. "I'm looking forward to it next year."
28.Which race was newly created
A.Two miles. B.10 kilometers. C.Five kilometers. D.A quarter-mile.
29.What is the purpose in creating the B. Y. D.
A.To gather money for students. B.To keep kids active in a hard time.
C.To train kids to attend competitions. D.To help PPIE organize sports games.
30.What does Jerry Wu do for his members
A.He coaches them in running. B.He teaches the lessons online.
C.He offers food and drinks to them. D.He helps them fight against illness.
31.Which of the following can be the best title for the text

C.Running to Support Education. D.Lending a Hand to Schools in Need

The glass armonica (玻璃琴), also known as a glass harmonica or simply armonica, is a musical instrument that produces sound by rubbing glass with wet fingers. It was invented by Benjamin Franklin in 1761.
The instrument consists of a series of glass bowls of varying sizes, fixed straight on a spindle (轴). The glass bowls are arranged in order of size, with the largest bowl on one end and the smallest on the other.
Franklin came up with the idea after attending a concert in Cambridge. The performer was rubbing wine glasses to produce musical notes. Franklin thought that was not efficient. He decided to invent a set of musical instruments made of glass.
So, he hired a London glassmaker to construct 36 bowls to specific thicknesses and sizes. He fixed the bowls horizontally on a spindle with the largest bowl on one end and the smallest on the other. In this way the musician can play the glass bowls like a keyboard.
The glass armonica became prevalent during the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Mozart and Beethoven both composed chamber pieces for it.
But by the 1820s, it was nearly a forgotten instrument in fears that it had the power to drive the listener mad. Some armonica players became ill and had to stop playing the instrument. They complained of muscle spasms (痉挛), nervousness, cramps, and dizziness. A few listeners were also affected. The instrument was actually banned in a few towns. "The armonica too inspires the nerves, drives the player into a troublesome depression and later into a dark and sad mood that is a method for slow self-destroying."
However, no explanation or proof was ever really given to any of these claims. Franklin himself ignored all of the argument and continued to play the instrument until the end of his life.
32.How are the glass bowls arranged to form this instrument
A.By their thickness. B.By their shapes. C.By their weight. D.By their sizes.
33.What inspired Franklin's invention of the instrument
A.A failed performance. B.An unsuccessful concert.
C.An unusual performer. D.A couple glasses of wine.
34.What does the underlined word "prevalent" mean in paragraph 5
A.Fearful. B.Popular. C.Strange. D.Tiresome.
35.What is paragraph 6 mainly about
A.Bad remarks about the instrument. B.Terrible sounds made by the instrument.
C.Bans on this instrument everywhere. D.This instrument's great appeal to people.

Snow had just melted off the ground that April day at our house in Regina Beach, Saskatchewan. I had just cleaned up the pool in preparation for selling the house. The year before, I had lost my job, and now our financial situation was terrible. In despair, I had finally put the home on the market, and a buyer was due to show up later that day. Even worse, I would have to give up my beloved Great Dane (大丹犬), Brigitte, because I could no longer afford the cost of feeding it. The thought of losing the dog and our beautiful home was almost more than I could bear.
Deep in despair, I sat typing letters for jobs. Out of the corner of my eye I could see my 13-month-old son, Forrest playing near our big, gentle dog, Brigitte.
Brigitte came to our house on Christmas eve when the doorbell rang and I was sure some of my Christmas packages had arrived. I ran to the door and swung it open, but no one was there. I sensed something and looked down, only to find a beautiful Great Dane sitting there, looking up at me with big, intelligent eyes. There was no way that she could have rung the doorbell by herself, was there Perhaps, someone had found the puppy somewhere and left her there, and then rang the doorbell and ran away. They accurately guessed I would welcome an additional family member and take care of her.
Thinking of these, I couldn't help but sigh and went straight back to work. However, I hadn't typed more than two sentences when Brigitte began barking madly and running out of the sliding glass door overlooking our pool.
I raced to see what was happening and noticed that the sliding door was slightly open. Suddenly, I realized my son was nowhere to be seen. In panic, I opened the door and ran outside.

In Peru, Chile and Colombia, couples pay about 55 percent of wedding costs. A large number of them borrow money to cover it. In Italy, parents usually pay about 60 percent, the study said.

第二节
I saw my son struggling in the water. He was in such an urgent situation that he might drown at any moment. Brigitte had jumped into the pool, trying to swim to my son. At no time, I jumped into the pool with clothes on. By then, Brigitte was dragging my son to the edge of the pool. I quickly picked him up and carried him to safety. Thanks to Brigitte's timely warning and rescue, my son was lucky to have a narrow escape.
Later, I told the story of the dog to the buyer. He was deeply moved. He offered to leave Brigitte to me, saying that it was I who had the right to own her. Considering that I was not rich enough to keep her, He paid me some extra money, which was enough for me to keep her living with us. I am very grateful for this man's generosity and understanding. I rented a small apartment and continued to live happily with her. After that, she took care of her son more carefully.
