My Favourite Books
Jo Usmar is a writer for Cosmopolitan and co-author of the This Book Will series(系列)of lifestyle books. Here she picks her top reads.
Matilda（Roald Dahl）
I once wrote a paper on the influence of fairy tales on Roald Dahl`s writing and it gave me a new appreciation for his strange and delightful words. Matilda's battles with her cruel me parents and the bossy headmisres，Miss Trunchbull，are equally fumy and frightening，but they`re also aspirational.
After Dark （Haruki Murakami）
It`s about two sisters, Eri，a model who either won`t or can`t stop sleeping，and Mari, a young student . In trying to connect to her sister. Mari starts changing her life and discovers a world of diverse “night people” who are hiding secrets.
Gone Girl （Gillian Fynn）
There was a bit of me that didn`t want to love this when everyone else on the planet did but the horror story is brilliant. There`s tension and anxiety from the beginning as Nick and Amy battle for your trust. It`s a real whodunit and the frustration when you realise what`s going on is horribly enjoyable
The Stand （Stephen King）
This is an excellent fantasy novel from one of the best storytellers around. After a serious flu outbreak wipes out 99.4% of the world`s population, a battle unfolds between good and evil among those let. Randall Flagg is one of the scariest characters ever.
21. Who does "I" refer to in the text?
A. Stephen King. B. Gillian Flynn. C. Jo Usmar. D. Roald Dahl
22. Which of the following tells about Mari and Eri?
A. Cosmopolitan. B. Matilda. C. After Dark. D. The Stand.
23. What kind of book is Gone Girl?
A. A folk tale. B. A biography. C. A love story. D. A horror story.
24. Who is the author of The Stand?
A. Roald Dahl B. Jo Usmar C. Haruki Murakami D. Stephen King

On her first day teaching students from poor families at an after-school program in New York City, Alyssa Kapasi noticed how many kids were lining up for free sandwiches and fruit in the school cafeteria. One of the workers explained that many of these students don`t get enough to eat at home, so a school lunch or an after-school meal might be the most food they would get all day.
Kapasi, who attends private school, was very surprised. What`s more, she made up her mind to help. “I want other kids to understand that if you see a problem, you don`t have to wait to grow up to fix it,” says Kapasi. She and a group of friends are now putting their programming skills to work to create an app called Food for Thought, which will allow parents, students, and even kind-hearted strangers to donate to a lunch account for a student in need at a nearby school.
About 20 million American kids receive free lunches. Two million more can have low-price meals, and those students` families have to pay for part of their food. When they don’t have the money on any given day, the students might have to settle for an “alternative (可替代的) meal” such as a cheese sandwich.
The app — which is getting financial support from a GoFundMe page — provides anonymity (匿名) to those who receive lunch and donors. To receive help, a family will need only a recommendation (推荐) from a school teacher, and no one else has to know.
“I want to make an app that all users feel no shame in using,” says Kapasi. She hopes to test the app in a school district this fall.
25. Why does Kapasi want to create an app?
A. To teach kids how to help others. B. To practise her programming skills.
C. To introduce her school to the public. D. To solve the problem of hunger in schools.
26. What does the underlined phrase “settle for” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Buy. B. Make. C. Accept. D. Offer.
27. What should a family do if they want to get help from Food for Thought?
A. Visit a GoFundMe page. B. Get in touch with Kapasi.
C. Be recommended by teachers. D. Donate something else instead.
28. What can we infer about the users of Kapasi`s app?
A. They won`t lose face in using it. B. They will make money by using it.
C. They will know who offers them help. D. They won`t meet their donors until this
C
Years ago, my wife and I volunteered at a homeless shelter in downtown Los Angeles, US, preparing meals for thousands of people. I got to talk with one of them in line, Albert. He said he liked my socks. “Want to see mine?” he asked, lifting his leg. He was barefoot (赤脚的). He said he had been meaning to buy a pair but he hadn`t got around to it. I felt a sinking feeling in my stomach.
The next day, after work I stopped at Ross and filled up my car with socks. That next morning, I drove over to Santa Monica`s Palisades Park, which is a common place for homeless people.
I took one of the bags from my car. It was still dark out. I headed for a group of three men, standing around a tree, probably using it as a windbreaker. As I walked toward them, one of them watched me, perhaps questioning my motives. “I thought you all might need some fresh new socks,” I said, handing him a pair. He looked confused at first but took them and said, “Thank you.” I gave him two more pairs for his friends.
I moved on. An hour later, I had given out all the socks. Most people were sleeping, and I felt like Santa. I knew that when they woke up they would find a very meaningful present.
That was nine years ago. Every week I`ll hand out as many socks as I can. If I`m on vacation or on a business trip for more than a week, I bring a bag of socks with me and hand them out to the homeless on the streets in other states and countries.
It`s extremely satisfying to do “under the radar” things to help make some people`s lives a little bit easier. Part of me hopes to see Albert out there one of these days, but even if I don`t, I`d like to think one of the pairs will find him.
29. What caused the author to hand out socks to the homeless?
A. A homeless shelter`s request. B. His wife`s volunteer work.
C. His talk with Albert. D. A festival`s arrival.
30. How did the homeless man in the park react to the author`s help?
A. He wondered about the reason behind it. B. He expected to get more socks.
C. He refused to accept it. D. He was afraid of it.
31. What could be the best title for the text?
A. Spreading presents on trips B. Looking for Albert all over the world
C. Giving the homeless a lifetime surprise D. Helping the homeless in an unexpected way
D
Every day, we have messages to give people through Post-it Notes. They have a special glue on the edge (边缘) of the paper. They are sticky so that you can leave them anywhere and they won`t fall off. You can reuse the notes because the special glue on the back doesn`t wear off easily.
Who invented Post-it Notes? Art Fry was a scientist who worked for the famous 3M Company. He needed a bookmark that stayed in place but didn`t tear the page when he wanted to remove it. So he took some of the weak glue a friend made and put it on the back of a yellow piece of paper. Then he wrote a report to his boss and put the yellow sticky paper on the top page. His boss took off the note, wrote an answer, stuck the paper back on, and sent it back. This was the beginning of Post-it Notes. It was a new and creative way to communicate.
Today, Post-it Notes are one of the most popular office products. Everyone uses them for many different purposes. One man used one to write a marriage proposal (求婚) and put it on his girlfriend`s front door. She
wrote her answer and put the note back on his door. One mother put a note on the back of her son`s car before he left on a long trip. When he arrived, he found the note. After 3,000 miles, it was still on the car. One university student was waiting in the bus station and started to feel sleepy. She didn`t want to miss her bus so she put Post-it Notes all over herself. The notes asked people to wake her up in time for her bus. She did fall asleep but her plan worked. Someone saw the notes and woke her up.
There are Post-it Notes to please everyone`s tastes. You can buy Post-it Notes in fifty different colors, twenty-seven different sizes, and fifty-six different shapes. More than 400 Post-it products are sold in more than 100 countries around the world. Art Fry should be proud of his invention.
32. What do we know about Post-it Notes?
A. They use a strong glue to be sticky enough. B. They fall off easily.
C. They are one-off products. D. They are used to leave messages.
33. Art Fry got the idea of Post-it Notes when .
A. he was making some glue B. he was discussing with his boss
C. he creatively glued a torn report D. he accidentally created a bookmark
34. Why did the university student cover herself in Post-it Notes?
A. To find out what time the bus left. B. To prevent herself from falling asleep.
C. To ask someone to wake her up in time. D. To tell others to leave her alone.
35. What can we learn about the progress of Post-it Notes?
A. They are popular in many places. B. They require design improvement.
C. They have failed to meet everyone’s needs. D. They would not satisfy Art Fry`s expectation.

A Few Tips for Self-Acceptance
We all want it to accept and love ourselves. But at times it seems too difficult and too far out of reach. 36 ． Here`s a handful of ways that will set you in the right direction.
● 37 ．Do not follow the people who make you feel not-good-enough. Why do you follow them? Are you hoping that eventually you will feel empowered because your life is better than theirs? Know that your life is your own; you are the only you in this world.
●Forgive yourself for mistakes that you have made. We are often ashamed of our shortcomings, our mistakes and our failures. 38 ． You will make mistakes, time and time again. Rather than getting caught up in how you could have done better, why not offer yourself a compassionate (有同情心) response? “That didn`t go as planned. But, I tried my best.”
●Recognize all of your strengths. Write them down in a journal. Begin to train your brain to look at strength before weakness. List all of your accomplishments and achievements. You have a job, earned your degree, and you got out of bed today. 39 ．
●Now that you`ve listed your strengths, list your imperfections. Turn the page in your journal. Put into words why you feel unworthy, why you don`t feel good enough. Now, read these words back to yourself. 40 . Turn to a page in your journal to your list of strengths and achievements. See how awesome you are?
A. Where do you start?
B. Feeling upset again?
C. Nothing is too small to celebrate.
D. Remember, you are only human.
E. Set an intention for self-acceptance.
F. Stop comparing yourself with others.
G. When does the comparison game start?

As a businesswoman, I care deeply about my customers. But like anyone for whom you feel affection, 41 can also drive you mad. They'll come rushing in, 42 their handbag's been stolen.

They'll have out half the 45 in the shop, and want the only style you don't have left in a 46 colour. I do know how upset the shop staff can get, but I try to persuade them to keep 47 .
