Nobody likes to spend money on a new book only to face disappointment when it doesn’t live up to your expectations. Here are the best book review sites to help you avoid buying books that you’ll regret reading.

Goodreads

Goodreads is the leading online community for book lovers. If you want some inspiration for which novel or biography to read next, this is the best book review site to visit. There are an endless number of user-generated (用户创造的) reading lists to explore.

Fantasy Book Review

Fantasy Book Review should be high on the list for anyone who is a fan of fantasy works. The book review site publishes reviews for both children’s books and adults’ books. It has a section on the top fantasy books of all time.

Booklist

Booklist is a print magazine that also offers an online portal. Trusted experts from the American Library Association write all the book reviews. You can see parts of reviews for different books. However, to read them in full, you will need to subscribe.

YouTube

YouTube is not the type of place that immediately springs to mind when you think of the best book review sites online. However, there are several engaging YouTube channels that frequently offer opinions on books they’ve read.

Although it’s easy to be attracted by an impressive book cover, it’s always best to have a quick look at the book reviews before actually buying a copy. This way, you can save your money and spend it on the books that you’ll be proud to display on your shelves for a long time.

Medha Pappula, an eighth-grader at Brambleton Middle School, is using her skill set to solve a problem — bullying. She recently earned an award from National Bullying Prevention Center (NBPC) for her anti-bullying (反霸凌) efforts in software development and animation (动画).

Pappula, 13, said she discovered that a classmate had experienced cyberbullying, which was painful for her to learn about. “Even though I didn’t experience it, I wouldn’t wish that on anyone, even my worst enemy,” Pappula said.

Then she developed a program that recognizes when digital and text-based messages include bullying language. The program takes a message, and then recognizes signs of bullying and gives a rating to the cyberbullying, the teen said. If the rating is high, she said, “the program can be used to carry out things like removing that message or reporting it.”

Pappula first designed and tested the program for Discord, a popular community-based messaging platform (平台), and said she plans to develop it for even bigger platforms like Facebook and Twitter.

In addition to this program, the NBPC awarded Pappula for a three-minute animated video about Unity Day, which she created and shared on YouTube last October. Unity Day, according to the video, was started by the NBPC in 2011 to raise bullying awareness among school-age children. Schools encourage their students to wear orange on Unity Day, as it is “a color that is connected with safety,” the website reads.

Pappula visited different websites to develop her animation skills several years ago. She spent more than a month creating her 2-D animated video using an animation software called Krita. The effort paid off, as nearly 6,000 people have already viewed the “Unity Day” video on YouTube. Along with being posted to the NBPC webpage, her animation was also shared by Cartoon Network. Moving forward, Pappula hopes to continue to work with the NBPC and to use her skills to lift those around her.

4．How did Pappula feel about bullying?

A．It upset her life a lot.

B．It could be stopped easily.

C．It happened online most often.

D．It shouldn’t happen to anyone.

5．How does Pappula’s program work?

A．By sending voice messages.

B．By removing useless messages.

C．By sending its users important reports.

D．By rating messages according to the language used.

6．What did Pappula do to make the animated video?

A．She asked the NBPC for help.

B．She taught herself animation.

C．She learned from an expert.

D．She created Krita.

7．Which word can best describe Pappula?

A．Honest. B．kind.

C．Polite. D．Proud.

C

My son’s seventh birthday is approaching, so conversation at my house has naturally turned to organizing his party.

For his sixth birthday, we booked the local trampoline(蹦床) park. This worked out well. But the whole event cost us hundreds of pounds. This year, I’m trying to convince him that the dinosaur-themed park down the road offers just as much fun—and you don’t even need to wear special socks! This will be cheaper, because we aren’t required to hire a space—we can simply buy tickets for his mates.

But I still keep pondering over one thing—party bags. Why should a bunch of seven-year-olds, who have already been treated to a day out and a mountain of sugar, also be handed a bag full of pound-shop gifts for simply bothering to show up?

Party bags are an environmental disaster. I reckon my son attends 20 parties per year, and at each party there are 20 kids in attendance, which means 400 plastic bags in total. Within these 400 bags are perhaps 800 plastic toys, almost all of which fall apart on the journey home and then get binned instantly. The waste is shocking, and I don’t want to be part of it.

I know there are some party bag alternatives: one couple I know covered a table with Mr. Men books and got the kids to choose one each. At another party, I saw the hosts fill a bucket with soft toys and crumpled newspaper, and do a lucky dip (抽奖). Admirable efforts.

Even if that is a nice try, and even if the contents in the party bags don’t fall apart, so what? Will our guests think more highly of our child because of the party bags from our party? Will my child’s ability to make and keep friends be improved?

Well, the tradition for kid’s party bags ends with me, and it ends here, and it ends now. Who’s with me?

8．Why does the author recommend the dinosaur-themed park?

A．Because it’s more enjoyable. B．Because it provides socks.

C．Because it can reduce cost. D．Because it offers free tickets.

9．What may be put in party bags?

A．Gifts brought by guests. B．Gifts prepared by hosts.

C．Gifts distributed by parks. D．Gift a donated by charities.

10．What is the author’s attitude towards party bags?

A．Intolerant. B．Objective. C．Favorable. D．In different.

11．What do the underlined words “get binned” mean in paragraph 4?

A．Be recycled. B．Be repaired. C．Be thrown away. D．Be given away.

第二节：（共5小题, 每小题2. 5分, 共12. 5分）

阅读下面短文, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

In our lives, we all want to achieve many things. __12__ To understand the relationship between them, I will tell you a famous story.

In 1953, in the Boston Marathon, one Japanese athlete Yamada unexpectedly won the world championship. When reporters asked what made him achieve such surprising success, he said, “Use wisdom to defeat others.” Many people didn’t believe him. Marathon is a sport which requires both physical strength and endurance (耐力). __13__

Three years later, in the Fukuoka Marathon, Yamada won the championship again. A reporter asked him, “You have won the championship again. Can you talk about your experience?” __14__ Everyone was puzzled by his so-called wisdom.

__15__ Yamada explained, “Before each race, I will check the whole route carefully. I will mark some important signs along the road. For example, the first mark is a bank, the second mark is a tree, and the third mark is a red house, thus marking to the end. When the race begins, I run as fast as I can towards the first goal, the bank. When I arrive at the bank, I will struggle for the second goal, the tree. __16__ At first I didn’t know this method and set my goal at the end of the 40-kilometer marathon. Usually I got exhausted in the first 10 kilometers because I was frightened by the remote distance.”

Now we know the relationship. We will start from the long-term goal and break the long-term goal into several small goals, and these small goals are our short-term goals.

A．Later, the mystery was finally solved.

B．Yamada answered him the same as the last time.

C．And we need both wisdom and physical strength.

D．And we have both short-term goals and long-term goals.

E．That he said wisdom led to his success seemed reluctant.

F．Yamada said that he was full of wisdom to be the champion.

G．I break the marathon route into many small goals and finish them one by one.

第二节（满分20分）

48．阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

I was a volunteer for an organization at the beginning of this year. The organization is aimed at helping children who suffer from cancer. One day, we were asked to raise money for cancer research and programme funding at an event.

Since my friend Lisa was also a volunteer for the organization, I went to the event with her. There were many people at the event. After seeing our poster, some people came to us and talked with us. But few people donated money. It was a bit hot that day. Both Lisa and I got really upset.

Half an hour later, Lisa started complaining, “I don’t think we can raise much money today. ”

“Don’t worry. The event lasts for three hours. There is still a lot of time left，” I said, though I also thought poorly of our plan to raise much money that day.

While Lisa and I were talking, a little boy of about eight years old came to us. He stood in front of our poster and started reading.

After a while, he asked, “What is cancer？”

I explained what cancer is. Then I said, “Many people around the world are suffering from cancer. It can be really dangerous. More research is needed to learn about it so that people with it can suffer less. That’s why we’re collecting money for it. ”

“Do children suffer from cancer, too？” asked the boy.

“Yes. Many children suffer from cancer. Some of them may die. They need help. ” Lisa said and I nodded.

Hearing that, the boy became sad. Then the boy asked, “How much money have you collected？”

Both Lisa and I were embarrassed to tell him that we didn’t raise much money. At last, we said, “Not much. ”

The boy looked into our donation container and only saw a few one­dollar and five­dollar bills. The boy said nothing after seeing that and left. Then some girls came to us and we started talking with them. Neither Lisa nor I thought the boy would return. However, about twenty minutes later, the boy did return.

注意：1．续写词数应为150左右；2．请按如下格式在相应位置作答。

The boy happily ran to us and asked, “Would you take a donation from children？”_____________________

________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Both Lisa and I were deeply touched. _________________________________________________________
