beijing xidan book building last week. the books poster is highlighted and news about the book can often be heard on the radio why is the book so attractive to children? with curiosity， i got a copy of“harry potter”at first，i wanted to glance over it and made some criticisms(批评)but，out of expectation，i have been deeply attracted by the magic world. on the other hand，one cant help asking：where is our own “harry potter”? the chinese nation has a history of 5，000 yearswith a vast market of youngsterschina did publish many books popular among children. however, why are the present works not asgood as those imported(进口的)? there come two major reasons：firstly，quite a number of childrens books are of strong sense of teaching, and lack interest and entertainment(娱乐). children often have a feeling of being “educated”no wonder they dont like themsecondly, childrens reading materials involving “idiom stories” and “chinese talents stories”，though always in different covers，are usually much

language market is a touchstone(试金石) for productsthe theory also holds true for cultural productsit is hoped that the authors of childrens books can learn something from the good market of “harry potter” and write out more and better books loved by children47our own books have the following disadvantages except that_ athey have little sense of interest and entertainment bmany of our books are of the same cour authors know what our children need dthe authors didnt pay much attention to the childrens requirements48what does the underlined word “plagiarized” in mean in chinese? a改编 b杜撰 c印刷 d.剽窃49the reason why harry potter and the half-blood prince is so popular is that_. ait opens a magic world for children bit has little sense of teaching cit is only written in childrens language dit is advertised more on tv or poster50what does the writer mean by writing “where is our own harry potter”? awe chinese produce more books than other countries bwe are short of books for children and
