a microwave oven, its pedestrianfriendly, too, waiting for book lovers next to a sidewalk in palm beach country estates, along the northern boundary of palm beach gardens.its a library built with love.a year ago, shortly after janey henriksen saw a brian williams report about the little free library organization, a wisconsinbased nonprofit that aims to promote literacy and build a sense of community in a neighborhood by making books freely available, she announced to her family of four, “thats what were going to do for our spring break！”son austin, now a 10thgrader, didnt see the point of building a library that resembles a mailbox. but janey insisted, and husband peter unwillingly got to work. the 51yearold owner of a ship supply company modified a small wooden house that hed built years earlier for daughter abbies toy horses, and made a door of glass.after adding the librarys final touches(装点), the family hung a signboard on the front, instructing users to “take a book, return a book，” and making the henriksen library, now one of several hundred like it nationwide and among more than 2,500 in the world, the only little free library in palm beach county.they stocked it with 20 or so books theyd already read, a mix of science fiction, reference titles, novels and kids favorites. “i told them, keep in mind that you might not see it again，” said janey, a stayathome mom.since then, the collection keeps replenishing(补充) itself, thanks to ongoing donations from borrowers. the library now gets an average of five visits a day.the projects best payoff, says peter, are the thankyou notes left behind. “we had no idea in the beginning that it would be so popular.”文章主要介绍了janey henriksen一家建立微型图书馆的故事。1in what way is the library “pedestrianfriendly”？ait owns a yellow roof.bit stands near a sidewalk.cit protects book lovers from the sun.dit uses palmtree stickers as decorations.答案：b细节理解题。根据文章第一段第二句可知这家图书馆是为了方便爱读书的行人借书而建立的，因此b项正确。2janey got the idea to build a library from _.aa visit to brian williamsba spring break with her familyca book sent by one of her neighborsda report on a wisconsinbased organization答案：d细节理解题。根据文章第三段第一句可知janey henriksen看到一篇关于the little free library organization的报告后受到启发，因而产生了建立这样的图书馆的想法。3the library was built _.aby a ship supply companybon the basis of toy horsesclike a mailboxdwith glass答案：c细节理解题。根据文章第四段第一句的内容可知c项正确。4what can we infer from the signboard?ait was made by a user of the library.bit marked a final touch to the library.cit aimed at making the library last long.dit indicated the library was a family property.答案：c推理判断题。根据文章第五段的内容可知，这个标牌要求借书者拿走一本书就要归还一本书，其目的是使图书馆能够持续更长的时间。5the passage tells us that the users _.adonate books to the librarybget paid to collect books for the librarycreceive thankyou notes for using the librarydvisit the library over 5 times on average daily答案：a细节理解题。根据文章倒数第二段第一句可知借书者经常捐书给图书馆，因此a项正确。文章没有提到为图书馆收集书会有报酬，因此b项错误；文章最后一段提到peter说经常收到借书者的感谢信，而不是借书者收到感谢信，因此c项错误；文章倒数第二段第二句提到图书馆现在平均每天接待5个人，因此d项错误。疑难词汇解读1resemble vt.类似，像she resembles her brother in looks.她和她弟弟长得很像。2donation n捐赠物，捐款a generous donation慷慨的捐助长难句子分析its such a happylooking library，painted yellow，decorated with palmtree stickers and sheltered from the florida sun by its own roof.分析：此句的主干是its such a happylooking library，painted yellow，decorated with palmtree stickers和sheltered from the florida sun by its own roof是三个并列的过去分词短语作定语修饰library。句意：这是一家看起来非常温馨的图书馆，刷了黄色的漆，用了棕榈树贴纸装饰，并且它的屋顶遮住了来自佛罗里达州的阳光。bif you see a group of people dancing and singing on the street or in the railway station, you dont need to feel surprised. they are a flash mob(暴民). who are they? are they mobs? dont be confused by their name. actually, a flash mob is a group of people who gather suddenly in a public place, do something unusual for a brief period of time, and then quickly disappear.they are usually organized with the help of the internet or other digital communications networks. the messages may be sent to friends, who send to more people. at a predetermined time, they gather and perform some activities such as exchanging books, coming together to look at the sky, waving their hands and yelling something at the top of their voice for 30 seconds. then, they quickly disappear before the police can arrive. using mobile phones, the flash mob can change its place if the first one has been cancelled for any reason.bill wasik, senior editor of harpers magazine, organized the first flash mob in manhattan in may 2003 and the first successful flash mob gathered on june 3,2003. wasik claimed that he created the flash mob as a social experiment designed to laugh at fashion seekers and stress the cultural atmosphere of wanting to be an insider or part of “the next big thing”flash mob gatherings can sometimes shock people. such an activity might seem amusing and magical, but it also might frighten people who are not aware of what is taking place. undoubtedly, flash mob can serve as good political tools and have great potential, such as using to advertise a product.the flash mob is now becoming more and more popular. people use it to do many things. flash mobs give people from all walks of life an opportunity to come together to create a memory.随着网络的快速发展，出现了一种新型人类：快闪族。本文对其进行了介绍。6what is not the feature of the flash mob?ait can get together quickly.bit can change its place freely.cit can do activities suddenly.dit can injure people seriously.答案：d细节理解题。根据文章的第一段最后一句“actually，a flash mob is a group of people who gather suddenly.and then quickly disappear.”和第二段最后一句“using mobile phones，the flash mob can
