When we read books we seem to enter a new world. This new world can be similar to the one we are living in, or it can be very __50__. Some stories are told as if they were true. Real people who live in a __51__ world do real things; in other words, the stories are about people just like us doing what we do. Other stories, such as the Harry Potter books, are not __52__. They are characters and creatures that are very different from us and do things that would be impossible for us. But there is more to books and writing than this. If we think about it, even realistic writing is only __53__. How can we tell the difference between what is real and what is not real? For example, when we read about Harry Potter, we do seem to learn something about the real world. And when Harry studies magic at Hogwarts, he also learns more about his real life than __54__. Reading, like writing, is an action. It is a way of thinking. When we read or write something, we do much more than simple look at words on a page. We use our __55__, which is real, and our imagination, which is real in a different way, to make the words come to life in our minds. Both realism and fantasy (幻想) use the imagination and the “magic” of reading and writing to make us think. When we read something realistic, we have to __56__ that the people we are reading about are just like us, even though we __57__ that we are real and they are not. It sounds __58__, but it works. When we read, we fill in missing information and __59__ the causes and effects of what a character does. We help the writer by __60__ that what we read is like real life. __61__, we are writing the book, too. Most of us probably don’t think about what is going on in our __62__ when we are reading. We pick up a book and lose ourselves in a good story, eager to find out what will __63__ next. Knowing how we feel when we read can help us become better __64__, and it will help us discover more about the real magic of books. 小题1: A.different B.possible C.important D.necessary 小题2: A.common B.usual C.normal D.certain 小题3: A.instructive B.realistic C.reasonable D.moral 小题4: A.planned B.thinkable C.designed D.imagined 小题5: A.magic B.lessons C.dreams D.experience 小题6: A.grammar B.knowledge C.skill D.words 小题7: A.recall B.ensure C.imagine D.understand 小题8: A.hope B.find C.learn D.know 小题9: A.terrible B.dangerous C.serious D.strange 小题10: A.think about B.talk of C.learn from D.forget about 小题11: A.guessing B.telling C.pretending D.promising 小题12: A.In a way B.As usual C.On the contrary D.By the way 小题13: A.society B.minds C.life D.world 小题14: A.appear B.argue C.happen D.develop 小题15: A.writers B.fans C.professionals D.readers
