(A)
The 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China points out the importance of reading and calls on people to read more books, so shared book houses have appeared in many places. Reading has become a trend in our country.
A reading campaign(行动) took place in Shenyang in April, 2023. Many people took part in it. Li Hong, a girl from a junior high school, said, “My mother and I took part in the campaign because both of us like reading. Books are our necessary furniture in our house. I know a lot about Chinese classic works. Reading makes my life colourful and will change my dream into reality(现实).”
Reading is one thing, but knowing how to read and what to read is another.
There are mainly three kinds of reading: recreational reading, study type reading and survey reading. Recreational reading can bring you much fun. You can read at a relaxed speed. Study-type reading usually needs you to read the text very carefully to understand the ideas and details. Survey reading is a way of reading fast to get the main idea or find the information you need.
What kind of books should you read Emerson, a great writer and thinker, had three rules: never read a book that is not a year old; never read any but famous books; never read a book you don't like.
Good books can lift you to a higher plane(境界). Whatever you read, read with interest, with the whole mind. Try to be a best reader. If you are getting the most out of a book, you will do things more confidently. Reading is rewarding(有益的)!

(B)
Recently, I asked a seeing friend who had just walked in the woods what she had noticed. “Nothing special,” she replied.
How was it possible, I asked myself, to walk through the woods and see nothing worthy of note I who cannot see find hundreds of things to interest me only through touch. If I can get so much pleasure from touch, how much more beauty must be found by sight(视力) And I have imagined what I should most like to see if I were given the use of my eyes for just three days.
On the first day, I should want to see the people who have made my life worth living and the books which have been read to me. In the afternoon, I should take a walk in the woods and admire the beauties of nature. That night, I should not be able to sleep.
On my second day, I should go to the museums to see man's progress. I should try to explore the spirit of man through his art. In the evening, I should spend at the movies.
The following day, I should spend in the world of common people going about the business of life. At midnight permanent(永久的) night would close in on me again, and I should realize how much I had left unseen.
I who am blind can give one suggestion to those who see: Use your eyes as if tomorrow you would be blind. The same is true of other senses. Hear the songs of birds, as if you would be deaf tomorrow. Smell the flowers, as if tomorrow you could never smell again... But of all the senses, I'm sure that sight must be the most pleasant.
——— Adapted from Three Days to See by Helen Keller
( )6. What makes the writer start imagining the three days
A. Walking in the woods. B. Asking herself questions.
C. Seeing natural beauty. D. Touching interesting things.
( )7. What does the writer want to do during the three days
A. Read books to people on the first day. B. Go to the movies on the second day.
C. Succeed in business on the third day. D. Have a wonderful dream every day.
( )8. What does the last paragraph mainly talk about
A. A description of different senses.
B. A method of living a pleasant life.
C. Encouragement to the blind people.
D. Advice to people without disabilities.
( )9. Which is the best structure of the passage
(①= Paragraph 1 ②= Paragraph 2……)
( )10. Which of the following sayings may the writer agree with
A. Time is what we want most, but what we use worst.
B. Never leave until tomorrow what you can do today.
C. Live every moment and be thankful for what you have.
