Tolstoy, M. Mitchell and C. Bronte. Now, each of them has been whittled down to about 400 pages by cutting 30 to 40 pages percent of original, with words, sentences, paragraphs and in a few cases, chapters removed. The first six shortened editions, all priced at 6.99 and advertised as great reads in half the time”, will go on sale next month, with plans for 50 to 100 more to follow. The publishing house believes that modern readers will welcome the shorter versions. Mr. Edwards 2020-5 -129:40 A.M.Well, Im publisher of Orion Group. Thanks for your attention, Mr. I must say, the idea developed from a game of shame in my office. Each of us was required to confess (承认) to the most embarrassing blanks in his or her reading. I admitted that I had never read Anna Karenina and tried but failed to get through Gone with the Wind several times.One of my colleagues acknowledged skipping (跳读) Jane Eyre. We realized that life is too short to read all the books you want to and we never were going to read these ones.As a leading publishing house, we are trying to make classics convenient for readers but its not as if were withdrawing the original versions. They are still there if you want to read them.Ms. Weir2020 -5 -1211 : 35 A.M.Im director of the online book club www. lovereading, co. uk.Mr. Edwards, I think your shortened edition is a breath of fresh air. Im guilty of never having read Anna Karenina, because its just so long. Id much rather read two 300-page hooks than one 600-page book. I am looking forward to more shortened classics!Mr. Crockatt2020-5- 124:38 P.M.Im from the London independent bookshop Corckatt & Powell.In my opinion, the practice is completely ridiculous. How can you edit the classics? Im afraid reading some of these books is hard work, and that is why you have to develop as a reader. If people dont have time to read Anna Karenina, then fine, But dont read a shortened version and kid yourself, its the real thing.56. According to the message board, Orion Books _.A. opposes the reading of original classicsB. is embarrassed for cutting down classicsC. thinks cut-down classics have a bright futureD. is cautious about its decision to cut down classics57. In Mr. Edwards opinion, Orion Group is shortening classics to _.A. make them easier to read B. meet a large demand in the marketC. increase the sales of literary books D. compete with their original versions58. By describing the shortened classics as a breath of fresh air, Ms. Weir _.A. speaks highly of the cut-down classics B. shows her love for original classicsC. feels guilty of not reading the classics D. disapproves of shortening the classics59. Mr. Crockatt seems to imply that _.A. reading the classic works is a confusing attemptB. shortening the classics does harm to the originalC. publishing the cut-down classics is a difficult jobD. editing the classic works satisfies childrens needsBSomeday a stranger will read your e-mail without your permission or scan the website youve visited, or perhaps someone will casually glance through your credit card purchases or cell phone bills to find out your shopping preferences or calling habits.In fact, its likely some of these things have already happened to you. Who would watch you without your permission? It might be a girlfriend, a marketing company, a boss, a cop or a criminal. Whoever it is, they wilt see you in a way you never intended to be seen-the 2lst century equivalent of being caught naked.Psychologists tell us boundaries are healthy, though its important to reveal yourself to friends, family and hirers in stages, at appropriate time. But few boundaries remain. The digital bread crumbs (碎屑) you leave everywhere make it easy for strangers to reconstruct who you are, where you are and what you like. In some cases, a simple Google search can reveal what you think. Like it or not, increasingly we live in a world where you simply cannot keep a secret.The key question is: Does that matter?For many Americans, the answer apparently is no.When opinion polls ask Americans about privacy, most say they are concerned about losing it. A survey found an overwhelming pessimism about privacy, with 60 percent of respondents saying they feel their privacy is slipping away, and that bothers me.But people say one thing and do another. Only a tiny fraction of Americans change any behaviors in an effort to preserve their privacy. Few people turn down a discount at tollbooths (收费站) to avoid using the EZ-Pass system that can track automobile movements. And few turn down supermarket loyalty cards. Privacy economist Alessandro Acquisti has run a series of tests that reveal people will surrender personal information like Social Security numbers just to get their hands on a pitiful 50-cent-off coupon (优惠券). But privacy does matter at least sometimes. Its like health. When you have it, you dont notice it. Only when its gone do you wish youd done more to protect it.60. What would psychologists advise on the relationships between friends?A. Friends should open their hearts to each other.B. Friends should always be faithful to each other.C. There should lie a distance even between friends.D. There should be fewer disputes between friends.61. Why does the author say we live in a world where you simply can not keep a secret ?A. Modern society has finally evolved into an open society.B. People leave traces around when using modern technology.C. There are always people who are curious about others affairs.D. Many search engines profit by revealing peoples identities.62. What do most Americans do with regard to privacy protection?A. They change behaviors that might disclose their identity.B. They use various loyalty cards for business transactions.C. They rely more and more on electronic devices.D. They talk a lot but hardly do anything about it.63. According to the passage, privacy is like health in that _.A. people will make every effort to keep it B. its importance is rarely understoodC. it is something that can easily be lost D. people dont cherish it until they lose itCAs the pace of life continues to increase, we are fast losing the art of relaxation. Once you are in the habit of rushing through life, being on the go from morning till night, it is hard to slow down. But relaxation is essential for a healthy mind and body.Stress is a natural part of everyday life and there is no way to avoid it. In fact, it is not the bad thing it is often supposed to be. A certain amount of stress is vital to provide motivation and give purpose to life. It is only when the stress gels out of control that it can lead to poor performance and ill health.The amount of stress a person can withstand depends very much on the individual. Some people are not afraid of stress, and such characters are obviously prime for managerial responsibilities, others lose heart at first sight of unusual difficulties. When exposed to stress, in whatever form, we react both chemically and physically. In fact we make choice between flight or fight and in more primitive days the choices made the difference between life or death. The crises we meet today are unlikely to be so extreme, but however little the stress, it involves the same response, h is when such a reaction lasts long, through continued exposure to stress, that health becomes endangered. Since we cant remove stress from our lives (it would be unwise to do so even if we could), we need to find ways to deal with it.64. People are finding less and less time for relaxing themselves because _.A. they regard working as their greatest enjoymentB. they believe that work is superior to relaxationC. they are traveling fast all the timeD. they are becoming busier with their work than ever before65. According to the author, the most important character tot a good manager is his _.A. strong will to hold out stress B. knowing the art of relaxationC. high sense of responsibility D. having control over performance66. Which of die following statements is TRUE, according to the passage?A. We can find quite a few ways to avoid stressB. Stress is always harmful to peoples healthC. Its easy to change the habit of keeping oneself busy with work.D. Different people can bear different amount of stress.67. In the last sentence of the passage, do so refers to _.A. expose ourselves to stress B. find ways to deal with stressC. remove stress from our lives D. establish links between diseases and stressDMany students of English as a foreign language wonder how to build their vocabulary. Like every other aspect of learning, there is no magic pill, no easy way. The only way to add new words to your vocabulary is to work hard at it.Have you ever noticed that when you discover something for yourself you remember it better than what someone has told to you? Its the same with building vocabulary. If you can figure out the meaning of a new word without looking it up in a dictionary and you will remember it better. The best way to learn the meaning of a word is to infer it from the context in which it is used, because then you will truly understand it.When you read and come across a new word, before you run for your dictionary, try to determine its meaning from the way it is used, and the information around it.The internet has a wealth of material for building your vocabulary. If you go online and search ESL Vocabulary you will find l ,200,000 entries (词条) ! These sites contain exercises, games, flash cards and a countless of other activities.So, what do you do with these words after youve written them down? Keep a vocabulary, journal (日志). When you come across a new word, write it in your .journal. Write its meaning in English, and then write its meaning in Chinese. Finally write three original English sentences using the word. If possible, ask an English speaker to read your sentences and tell you if youve used the word correctly.Use yore new words when you speak. When you use them, they become yours. New words have no meaning and wont stay with you unless you have a frame of reference tot them. Once you have written them, know their meaning and use them, you have created a frame of reference and you are more likely to remember them.Vocabulary building is hard work, but once you have a word, you have it forever.68.
