The World’s Greatest Bookstores
Cafebreria El Péndulo, Mexico City, Mexico
Part cafe, part coffee house, part bar and part bookstore, Cafebreria El Péndulo is located in Mexico City. Books line the shelves from the ceiling to the floor, and live plants add lots of green. The store is named for a huge pendulum (钟摆) hanging from its ceiling.
Stanfords, London and Bristol, England
Established in 1853, Stanfords boasts that it offers the world's largest selection of travel books and maps. It also sells travel accessories. Look for the enormous National Geographic Map of the World in the flagship store in London; it was created in 2003 to celebrate the store’s 150th birthday.
Rizzoli, New York City, New York
For almost a half century, Rizzoli has been considered as one of the best independent bookstores in the US. It specializes in illustrated (有插图的) books about the way people works and lives, such as fashion, photography, decoration design, cooking and architecture. Take a master class in flower design, attend a lecture and book signing, or drop in for a cooking show or book a launch party.
El Ateneo Grand Splendid, Buenos Aires, Argentina
Often described as one of the world’s most beautiful bookstores, El Ateneo is housed in an historic theater much as it was when the theater opened in 1919. After customers browse the shelves, they can drink coffee and listen to music from a stage hidden in red curtains where tango dancers once performed. While most of the store’s books are in Spanish, they are available in a range of subjects.

B
I was nervous, no doubt about it, but I felt pretty fearfully sitting there unmoving on top of the horse, so I picked up my canter（使马慢跑）. I went a few times around the stadium, saying I was warming up my horse. But really, I was taking some time to collect my thoughts and prepare myself before I jumped. Or to put it in a more simple and realistic tone, I was delaying.
Finally the time came when I had to just suck it up and jump the horse. I swallowed, turned, and began heading straight for the jump. My palms began to sweat and I tightened myself. There was no turning back from this now.
I sat up in my jumping position as my horse picked up his speed to jump. Fear rushed through me as well as a sense of excitement. Before I knew it, I was up in the air, flying over the jump. As scared was, I was determined not to mess this up. My horse landed with a small beat on the other side of jump and continued cantering around the field like nothing had ever happened. Miraculously, I was seated firmly on the horse, unharmed. Surprised, I slowed down to a smooth running to process that I hadn't just been thrown off a leaping animal.
My riding instructor congratulated me, proud that I got through it. I admit that I was proud as well. I'm not usually the kind of person that faces their fears. Instead, I usually run away from them.
1、What is the author's real purpose to go around the stadium several times?
A．To warm his horse up. B．To judge the distance.
C．To make sure to succeed. D．To calm himself down.
2、How did the author feel before the horse landed?
a.interested b.excited c.frightened d.proud
A．a; b B．b; c C．c; d D．a; d
3、What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A．The instructor used to be proud of the author.
B．The author used to stay away from challenges.
C．The author feared nothing much from then on.
D．The instructor believed the author could succeed.
