Edinburgh Summer Festivals
The Edinburgh Festival Fringe
Set up in 1947，the Edinburgh Festival Fringe is the world's largest performance arts festival.Only the Olympic Games and the World Cup sell more tickets and it takes over venues (场馆) all over the city for most of August.The Edinburgh Festival Fringe Society publishes a free programme every year containing most of the performances—which can be picked up in venues across Edinburgh before and during the event.
The Edinburgh International Festival
First held in 1947，the Edinburgh International Festival has taken place every year since.It sees famous figures from the fields of music and the performing arts invited to perform in the city.Traditionally the majority of events are classical music concerts，opera，theatre productions，and dance performances.
The Edinburgh International Film Festival
Established in 1947，the Edinburgh International Film Festival is the world's oldest uninterruptedly (不间断地) running film festival.Threatened by financial problems last year，including the closing of its Edinburgh Filmhouse home，it came in 2023 as a downsized event showing a selection of films from around the world.
The Edinburgh International Book Festival
First taking place in a single tent in 1983，the Edinburgh International Book Festival was originally held every two years but became a yearly literary celebration in 1997．It invites hundreds of authors，journalists，politicians and famous faces from around the world to come to the city to speak about both their books and those of others.

In 1999，Rebecca Constantino began doing a study at schools across Los Angeles.She had just completed a PhD in Language，Literacy and Learning，and she was analysing children's access to books in wealthy and low-income communities.
One day，she saw something that stopped her in her tracks.“I was at a school in a wealthy community，and they were getting rid of almost brand new books because they didn't have room in the library，” said Constantino.She put the books in her car and drove them to a school in an underserved community.
Shocked by the difference she saw in public school libraries，Constantino became determined to bridge the gap.“School libraries are not funded well，and sometimes not funded at all，” said Constantino.“If you're a child in an underserved community，you're left with boring，outdated，and uninteresting books.”
The word about Constantino's work was spread，and books began piling up.Today，her non-profit organisation，Access Books，has provided more than 1．5 million books to public school and community libraries across California.The group has also redecorated close to 350 libraries in public schools and homeless shelters.
Constantino recruits (招募) volunteers who work alongside the community to create a warm，vibrant (充满生机的) and welcoming library space.Students and their families，as well as school staff and teachers，come together to join in.“We're working together.It's not a gift；it's a partnership.It really builds a sense of community，” said Constantino.
In addition to book donations and refurbishing (再装修) libraries，the group offers author visits with schools and holds an annual writers conference for kids.Constantino said，“If we provide high-interest books and a beautiful library space，they do come and they do read.We found that in the schools that we serve，the number of books borrowed increases significantly after our coming.So we know that kids are really interested in the books that we give.My goal is that kids can always have a friend in a book and they can always turn to a book to find comfort and to learn something.”
4．Why did Constantino do the study in 1999
A．To prepare for a PhD.
B．To reduce the waste of books.
C．To donate more books to poor communities.
D．To figure out kids' ways of gaining reading books.
5．How did Constantino bridge the gap
A．By obtaining donated books.
B．By raising money on the street.
C．By founding a profitable organisation.
D．By getting support from the local government.
6．Which can best describe Constantino's work
A．Ambitious. B．Controversial.
C．Depressing. D．Successful.
7．What impact does the non-profit organisation have on kids in poor communities
A．They are more willing to read books.
B．They can turn to writers on campus.
C．They donate their own books to school libraries.
D．They think the books on the shelf difficult to read.
C
We believe that there is more to education than preparation for a job.Children must be prepared for all aspects (方面) of their future work，personal relationships，creative activities，dealing with money matters，independence，and parenthood.
But it would be unrealistic (不现实的) to provide an education which took no consideration of the needs of employers.
What type of training does the business world regard as important
Many young people applying for jobs were，in the employers' opinions，very weak in the basic skills of handwriting，grammar and spelling.“Though additional education at university level improved the students' general ability，” a report states，“in basic skills the standards remained stubbornly low.”
There are different opinions about whether standards have gone down in recent years.What is certain is that employers do not believe the standards are now high enough.Do technological changes make greater demands upon the students' abilities
We should also remember that the job expectations of young people have increased.Girls who would have once become shop assistants or hairdressers now want to be secretaries.Boys who sought an apprenticeship (学徒工作) 20 years ago now desire to have an engineering degree.But it is still the same girls and boys with the same degree of ability.No wonder there are problems in reaching the “necessary standards” of the business world.
Many employers believe that it is important for teachers to have experience outside the world of college and school.They should work for a while at some other kinds of job “to see how the world of business is different from their own”．The teaching occupation and society in general need a greater understanding of manpower needs and therefore of “the desired” direction of the education system.
8．The article mainly talks about ________．
A．no education among young people
B．meeting the educational requirements of employment
C．the problem of unemployment
D．the weaker standards of education
9．In the writer's opinion，education should ________．
A．pay more attention to students' academic ability
B．only meet the needs of employment
C．be suitable to all aspects of being an adult，including employment
D．centre on grammar
10．The underlined part “the same girls and boys” in paragraph 6 refers to ________．
A．those who are likely to be unemployed
B．those who have just left middle school
C．those who are looking for jobs far beyond their abilities
D．those who might have become shop assistants，hairdressers and apprentices in the past
11．It's suggested that teachers should ________．
A．never change their jobs
B．improve their teaching methods
C．spend more time on their school work
D．get some work experience outside school
D
When Boris left school，he could not find a job.He tried hard and pestered (纠缠)his relatives，but they had problems of their own.He answered advertisements until he could not afford to buy any more stamps.Boris grew annoyed，then depressed，then a little hardened.Still he went on trying and still he failed.He began to think that he had no future at all.
“Why don't you start your own business？” one of his uncles told him.“The world is a money-locker.You'd better find a way of opening it.”
“But what can I do？”
“Get out and have a look round，” advised his uncle in a vague sort of way.“See what people want；then give it to them，and they will pay for it.”
Boris began to cycle around the town and found a suitable piece of a waste ground in the end.Then he set up his business as a cycle repairer.He worked hard，made friends with his customers and gradually managed to build up his goodwill and profit.A few months later，he found that he had more work than he could deal with by himself.He found a number of empty shops but they were all no good: in the wrong position，too expensive or with some other snag.But at long last，he managed to find an empty shop on a new estate where there were plenty of customers but no competition.
Boris and his assistant taught themselves how to repair scooters and motorcycles.Slowly but surely the profits increased and the business developed.At last，Boris had managed to open the money-locker and found bank notes and gold coins inside.
12．Boris started his career by________．
A．cycling around the town
B．developing a waste ground
C．fixing cycles
D．buying empty shops
13．Boris finally chose an empty shop on a new estate because________．
A．it was not so expensive
B．he had a lot of old customers there
C．he could make good use of his skills there
D．there were good opportunities there
14．We can infer from the last paragraph that Boris________.
A．still couldn't make good profits
B．set off in a successful career
C．found a lot of gold coins by accident
D．had great difficulty running his business
15．Which of the following would be the BEST title for the passage
A．Goodwill Is the Key to Success
B．The World Is a Money-locker
C．No Education No Future
D．Difficulty of Starting a Small Business

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
If you are thinking about asking for a raise in salary，there are several things to keep in mind.First，consider whether you deserve a higher salary. 16 Sit down and make a list of your job accomplishments.Be as specific as possible.For example，think about important projects you have worked on，things you have done to improve the organisation of work in your department，or how your efforts have brought more money to the company.Also include any professional development opportunities you have taken advantage of recently and be ready to explain how they have improved your performance on the job._ 17
Bear in mind that salary levels are based not only on performance but also on the market for your particular skills.Before you ask for a raise，you need to do some research.You should investigate the industry standards for salaries for people in similar positions with similar levels of experience. 18 Your initial request should actually be slightly higher than the amount you want in order to leave some room for negotiation.Then，if you have to go lower than this amount，you still end up with something close to what you want.
19 If you have recently been given new responsibilities，it makes sense to ask for a higher level of compensation(补偿).On the other hand，if the company is going through financial difficulties，a request for more money will probably not be met with a favourable response.It would be better to wait until the company is in a better financial position.
Finally，never give personal reasons for wanting a higher salary.Your need to pay your child's college tuition or buy a bigger house is of no concern to your boss. 20 That is where you need to keep the conversation.
A．Everyone is eager for a raise in salary.
B．Skills play a key role in your salary level.
C．An important point is the timing of your request.
D．Then you will be better prepared when you meet with your boss.
E．Your salary level should be based on professional considerations alone.
F．You probably do，but you should be able to explain exactly why to your boss.
G．This will help you determine what would be a reasonable amount of money to ask for.

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
When Cassandra Ridder picked up her son Brody from school，the boy wasn't his usual happy-go-lucky self.
Cassandra said that the sixth graders didn't want to talk about his day and only wanted to listen to music.To lighten his mood，she asked him about his yearbook (毕业纪念册).Earlier that day，the mum had received an email，informing parents that students would be bringing their class yearbooks home.She was curious if Brody got lots of signatures.
But when she brought it up，her son got really sad.He said，“No，Mum，no one really signed my yearbook.I asked people and they either told me no or that they would do it later，and that they were too busy for me.”
When Brody handed over his yearbook，Cassandra's heart sank.The page was almost empty，except for a couple of messages from his teachers and two students' names.To fill in the space，Brody had written a note to himself that read “Hope you make some more friends”， and had signed his own name.
“I tried to make him feel better，” said Cassandra.“I told him that it might have just been a busy day，and to give people the benefit of the doubt.I told him that things will get better and to stay positive，and that no matter what，I would always be his friend.”
Upon discovering what happened with Brody's yearbook，Cassandra decided to do something.That night，she wrote a post on the Internet for parents.She wanted to let the other parents know this was happening at school and remind them they should talk to their kids about being kind to one another.
“My poor son feel sad.Despite Brody's asking all kinds of kids to sign it，two teachers and a total of two students wrote in his yearbook，” her post read. So Brody took it upon himself to write to himself.My heart is broken.
注意：1．续写词数应为150左右；

Cassandra didn't expect too much from the post. But the next day, she received an unexpected text from Brody.Brody told her that he had messages from all sixth graders and even eleventh graders.They all promised to support him and signed encouraging words to him.The students who had previously refused to write in his yearbook were suddenly “lining up” to sign their names and write their messages.Some even put their phones for him to contact them.He was deeply touched and felt it was the best day ever.
The headmaster Mr. Rudd also knew of Brody's story. He sent Brody a sweet note and a gift.The note read, “Dear Brody, it was great to talk to you the other day.It's important to remember that things will get better even when life is tough.There are so many people that love you and think you're the coolest kid.I'm one of them! I can't wait to see all the amazing things you're going to accomplish.” With all happened, Brody feels more confident now and is already talking about how excited he is for the seventh grade.

Edinburgh Summer Festivals
The Edinburgh Festival Fringe
Set up in 1947，the Edinburgh Festival Fringe is the world's largest performance arts festival.Only the Olympic Games and the World Cup sell more tickets and it takes over venues (场馆) all over the city for most of August.The Edinburgh Festival Fringe Society publishes a free programme every year containing most of the performances—which can be picked up in venues across Edinburgh before and during the event.
The Edinburgh International Festival
First held in 1947，the Edinburgh International Festival has taken place every year since.It sees famous figures from the fields of music and the performing arts invited to perform in the city.Traditionally the majority of events are classical music concerts，opera，theatre productions，and dance performances.
The Edinburgh International Film Festival
Established in 1947，the Edinburgh International Film Festival is the world's oldest uninterruptedly (不间断地) running film festival.Threatened by financial problems last year，including the closing of its Edinburgh Filmhouse home，it came in 2023 as a downsized event showing a selection of films from around the world.
The Edinburgh International Book Festival
First taking place in a single tent in 1983，the Edinburgh International Book Festival was originally held every two years but became a yearly literary celebration in 1997．It invites hundreds of authors，journalists，politicians and famous faces from around the world to come to the city to speak about both their books and those of others.

In 1999，Rebecca Constantino began doing a study at schools across Los Angeles.She had just completed a PhD in Language，Literacy and Learning，and she was analysing children's access to books in wealthy and low-income communities.
One day，she saw something that stopped her in her tracks.“I was at a school in a wealthy community，and they were getting rid of almost brand new books because they didn't have room in the library，” said Constantino.She put the books in her car and drove them to a school in an underserved community.
Shocked by the difference she saw in public school libraries，Constantino became determined to bridge the gap.“School libraries are not funded well，and sometimes not funded at all，” said Constantino.“If you're a child in an underserved community，you're left with boring，outdated，and uninteresting books.”
The word about Constantino's work was spread，and books began piling up.Today，her non-profit organisation，Access Books，has provided more than 1．5 million books to public school and community libraries across California.The group has also redecorated close to 350 libraries in public schools and homeless shelters.
Constantino recruits (招募) volunteers who work alongside the community to create a warm，vibrant (充满生机的) and welcoming library space.Students and their families，as well as school staff and teachers，come together to join in.“We're working together.It's not a gift；it's a partnership.It really builds a sense of community，” said Constantino.
In addition to book donations and refurbishing (再装修) libraries，the group offers author visits with schools and holds an annual writers conference for kids.Constantino said，“If we provide high-interest books and a beautiful library space，they do come and they do read.We found that in the schools that we serve，the number of books borrowed increases significantly after our coming.So we know that kids are really interested in the books that we give.My goal is that kids can always have a friend in a book and they can always turn to a book to find comfort and to learn something.”
4．Why did Constantino do the study in 1999
A．To prepare for a PhD.
B．To reduce the waste of books.
C．To donate more books to poor communities.
D．To figure out kids' ways of gaining reading books.
5．How did Constantino bridge the gap
A．By obtaining donated books.
B．By raising money on the street.
C．By founding a profitable organisation.
D．By getting support from the local government.
6．Which can best describe Constantino's work
A．Ambitious. B．Controversial.
C．Depressing. D．Successful.
7．What impact does the non-profit organisation have on kids in poor communities
A．They are more willing to read books.
B．They can turn to writers on campus.
C．They donate their own books to school libraries.
D．They think the books on the shelf difficult to read.
C
We believe that there is more to education than preparation for a job.Children must be prepared for all aspects (方面) of their future work，personal relationships，creative activities，dealing with money matters，independence，and parenthood.
But it would be unrealistic (不现实的) to provide an education which took no consideration of the needs of employers.
What type of training does the business world regard as important
Many young people applying for jobs were，in the employers' opinions，very weak in the basic skills of handwriting，grammar and spelling.“Though additional education at university level improved the students' general ability，” a report states，“in basic skills the standards remained stubbornly low.”
There are different opinions about whether standards have gone down in recent years.What is certain is that employers do not believe the standards are now high enough.Do technological changes make greater demands upon the students' abilities
We should also remember that the job expectations of young people have increased.Girls who would have once become shop assistants or hairdressers now want to be secretaries.Boys who sought an apprenticeship (学徒工作) 20 years ago now desire to have an engineering degree.But it is still the same girls and boys with the same degree of ability.No wonder there are problems in reaching the “necessary standards” of the business world.
Many employers believe that it is important for teachers to have experience outside the world of college and school.They should work for a while at some other kinds of job “to see how the world of business is different from their own”．The teaching occupation and society in general need a greater understanding of manpower needs and therefore of “the desired” direction of the education system.
8．The article mainly talks about ________．
A．no education among young people
B．meeting the educational requirements of employment
C．the problem of unemployment
D．the weaker standards of education
9．In the writer's opinion，education should ________．
A．pay more attention to students' academic ability
B．only meet the needs of employment
C．be suitable to all aspects of being an adult，including employment
D．centre on grammar
10．The underlined part “the same girls and boys” in paragraph 6 refers to ________．
A．those who are likely to be unemployed
B．those who have just left middle school
C．those who are looking for jobs far beyond their abilities
D．those who might have become shop assistants，hairdressers and apprentices in the past
11．It's suggested that teachers should ________．
A．never change their jobs
B．improve their teaching methods
C．spend more time on their school work
D．get some work experience outside school
D
When Boris left school，he could not find a job.He tried hard and pestered (纠缠)his relatives，but they had problems of their own.He answered advertisements until he could not afford to buy any more stamps.Boris grew annoyed，then depressed，then a little hardened.Still he went on trying and still he failed.He began to think that he had no future at all.
“Why don't you start your own business？” one of his uncles told him.“The world is a money-locker.You'd better find a way of opening it.”
“But what can I do？”
“Get out and have a look round，” advised his uncle in a vague sort of way.“See what people want；then give it to them，and they will pay for it.”
Boris began to cycle around the town and found a suitable piece of a waste ground in the end.Then he set up his business as a cycle repairer.He worked hard，made friends with his customers and gradually managed to build up his goodwill and profit.A few months later，he found that he had more work than he could deal with by himself.He found a number of empty shops but they were all no good: in the wrong position，too expensive or with some other snag.But at long last，he managed to find an empty shop on a new estate where there were plenty of customers but no competition.
Boris and his assistant taught themselves how to repair scooters and motorcycles.Slowly but surely the profits increased and the business developed.At last，Boris had managed to open the money-locker and found bank notes and gold coins inside.
12．Boris started his career by________．
A．cycling around the town
B．developing a waste ground
C．fixing cycles
D．buying empty shops
13．Boris finally chose an empty shop on a new estate because________．
A．it was not so expensive
B．he had a lot of old customers there
C．he could make good use of his skills there
D．there were good opportunities there
14．We can infer from the last paragraph that Boris________.
A．still couldn't make good profits
B．set off in a successful career
C．found a lot of gold coins by accident
D．had great difficulty running his business
15．Which of the following would be the BEST title for the passage

D．Difficulty of Starting a Small Business

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
If you are thinking about asking for a raise in salary，there are several things to keep in mind.First，consider whether you deserve a higher salary. 16 Sit down and make a list of your job accomplishments.Be as specific as possible.For example，think about important projects you have worked on，things you have done to improve the organisation of work in your department，or how your efforts have brought more money to the company.Also include any professional development opportunities you have taken advantage of recently and be ready to explain how they have improved your performance on the job._ 17
Bear in mind that salary levels are based not only on performance but also on the market for your particular skills.Before you ask for a raise，you need to do some research.You should investigate the industry standards for salaries for people in similar positions with similar levels of experience. 18 Your initial request should actually be slightly higher than the amount you want in order to leave some room for negotiation.Then，if you have to go lower than this amount，you still end up with something close to what you want.
19 If you have recently been given new responsibilities，it makes sense to ask for a higher level of compensation(补偿).On the other hand，if the company is going through financial difficulties，a request for more money will probably not be met with a favourable response.It would be better to wait until the company is in a better financial position.
Finally，never give personal reasons for wanting a higher salary.Your need to pay your child's college tuition or buy a bigger house is of no concern to your boss. 20 That is where you need to keep the conversation.
A．Everyone is eager for a raise in salary.
B．Skills play a key role in your salary level.
C．An important point is the timing of your request.
D．Then you will be better prepared when you meet with your boss.
E．Your salary level should be based on professional considerations alone.
F．You probably do，but you should be able to explain exactly why to your boss.
G．This will help you determine what would be a reasonable amount of money to ask for.

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
When Cassandra Ridder picked up her son Brody from school，the boy wasn't his usual happy-go-lucky self.
Cassandra said that the sixth graders didn't want to talk about his day and only wanted to listen to music.To lighten his mood，she asked him about his yearbook (毕业纪念册).Earlier that day，the mum had received an email，informing parents that students would be bringing their class yearbooks home.She was curious if Brody got lots of signatures.
But when she brought it up，her son got really sad.He said，“No，Mum，no one really signed my yearbook.I asked people and they either told me no or that they would do it later，and that they were too busy for me.”
When Brody handed over his yearbook，Cassandra's heart sank.The page was almost empty，except for a couple of messages from his teachers and two students' names.To fill in the space，Brody had written a note to himself that read “Hope you make some more friends”， and had signed his own name.
“I tried to make him feel better，” said Cassandra.“I told him that it might have just been a busy day，and to give people the benefit of the doubt.I told him that things will get better and to stay positive，and that no matter what，I would always be his friend.”
Upon discovering what happened with Brody's yearbook，Cassandra decided to do something.That night，she wrote a post on the Internet for parents.She wanted to let the other parents know this was happening at school and remind them they should talk to their kids about being kind to one another.
“My poor son feel sad.Despite Brody's asking all kinds of kids to sign it，two teachers and a total of two students wrote in his yearbook，” her post read. So Brody took it upon himself to write to himself.My heart is broken.
注意：1．续写词数应为150左右；

Cassandra didn't expect too much from the post. But the next day, she received an unexpected text from Brody.Brody told her that he had messages from all sixth graders and even eleventh graders.They all promised to support him and signed encouraging words to him.The students who had previously refused to write in his yearbook were suddenly “lining up” to sign their names and write their messages.Some even put their phones for him to contact them.He was deeply touched and felt it was the best day ever.
The headmaster Mr. Rudd also knew of Brody's story. He sent Brody a sweet note and a gift.The note read, “Dear Brody, it was great to talk to you the other day.It's important to remember that things will get better even when life is tough.There are so many people that love you and think you're the coolest kid.I'm one of them! I can't wait to see all the amazing things you're going to accomplish.” With all happened, Brody feels more confident now and is already talking about how excited he is for the seventh grade.
