build a sense of community in a city by getting everyone to read the same book at the same tome.in addition to encouraging reading as a pursuit (追求) to be enjoyed by all, the program allows strangers to communicate by discussing the book on the bus, as well as promoting reading as an experience to be shared in families and schools. the idea came from seattle librarian nancy pearl who launched (发起）the if all of seattle read the same book project in 1998. her original program used author visits,study guides and book discussion groups to bring people together with a book, but the idea has since expanded to many other american cities, and even to hong kong.in chicago, the mayor(市长）appeared on television to announce the choice of to kill a mockingbird as the first book in the one book, one chicago program. as a result, reading clubs and neighbourhood groups sprang up around the city. across the us, stories emerged of parents and children reading to each other at night and strangers chatting away on the bus about plot and character. the only problem arose in new york ,where local readers could not decide on one book to represent the huge and diverse population. this may show that the idea works best in medium-sized cities or large towns,where a greater sense of unity(一致）can be achieved .or it may show that new yorkers rather missed the point ,putting all their energy and passion into the choice of the book rather than discussion about a book itself.ultinatel was nancy points out,the level of sucicess is not meastured by how many people read a book,but by how many people are enriched by the process.or have enjoyed speaking to someone with whom they would not otherwise have shared a word.46.what is the purpose of the project launched by nancy?a.to invite authors to guide readers.b.to encourage people to read and share.c.to involve people in communnity service.d.to promote the friendship between cities.47.why was it difficult for new yorkers to carry out the projict?a.they had little interest in reading.b.they were too busy to read a book.c.they came from many different backgroundsd.they lacked support from the locat government48.according to the passage,where would the project be more easily carried out?a.in large communities with little sense of unityb.in large cities where libraries are far from homec.in medium-sized cities with a diverse populationd.in large towns where agreement can be quickly reached49.the underlined words“shared a word”in paragraph 5 probably mean a.exchanged ideas with each otherb.discussed the meaning of a wordc.gamed life experience d.used the same language50.according to nacy,the degree of students of the project is judged by a. the careful selection of a proper bookb. the growing popularity of the writersc.the number of people who benefit from reading.d.the number of books that each person reads.参考答案 bcdac阅读理解with rising gas prices，its no wonder the search for gasoline alternatives(替代品) has suddenly taken on a new urgency.one of the laboratoriesa high school in brooklynis where students are using cooking oil to run their experimental engine.and as education reporter art mcfarland discovered，it appears to be working.students at automotive high school have taken a gas alternative lesson a step further.they have perfected a project that runs this cars engine，with used cooking oil.lamar taylor，“i think its a great project because its better for the environment.”vehicles that run on alternative fuels are part of a cutting edge technology.the automotive high project began after a dieselpowered mercedes was donated to the school two years ago.thomas cassino，mechanics teacher，“the original diesel engine.was actually produced to run on vegetable oil and whale oil.”the oil running the engine was collected from the school cafeteria and from restaurants，then placed into a converter，which heats it up while the engine starts using the diesel fuel.with the flip(轻击) of a switch，the engine is cooking with oil，though collecting it can have drawbacks.melissa silberman，principal，“once they started running the car，they didnt want to eat in the cafeteria any more because what the french fries(炸薯条) were cooked in werent so attractive if it can run a car.”and it has its advantages.curtis giscombe，student，“it smells like the back of mcdonalds.it smells like french fries.” the students are not likely to influence the more widespread use of alternative fuels，but if the day comes when lots more cars are running on cooking oil，the students will be prepared to service them.1what would be the best title for the text?athe future alternative to gasolinebrising gas prices drive experimental engineccooking oil finds its new usesdstudents use cooking oil to power
