Mo, the first Nobel winner in literature born and living in China, said he had trouble with the sudden publicity, which put a lot of pressure on him.
"I only hope to return to my writing desk as soon as possible, and I would also like to do well in society anonymously.(無名地)" Mo said. He was bothered by a large number of requests asking him to offer help that took advantage of his fame. " I was upset the first several days after the prize announcement, but then I realized the prize is just like a mirror that reflects various attitudes about my winning, and more, reflects the real me," Mo said. "I still consider myself an ordinary citizen who writes. And presenting quality works is my duty and best way of giving back to society. I'm no superstar," he emphasized(強調(diào)) several times.
Mo believes Chinese literature has achieved much in the past thirty years, and the driving force behind that is not the prize. Writers' creations should not be driven by awards, or criticism, or readers' expectations. Mo said he misunderstood the standards of the academy's selection before he visited Stockholm（斯德哥爾摩） to receive the prize in December.
"I thought they were judging the authors' personality or political features, then I learned the sole standard of their selection is literature itself, which is also deeply based in the Swedish people's long-established practice of reading a large number of books," Mo said.
During the forum, established Chinese and Australian writers discussed subjects as diverse as tradition and modernity, the local and the universe and cultural inclusiveness. And they will also read works to each other and the readers. The writers communication will further promote（推動） Chinese writers to a global audience.
Australian Ambassador（大使） to China Frances Adamson agreed. "It's a milestone （驅動）of literary exchanges between the two countries, who are longtime friends," Adamson said.
小題1: Mo is the first Nobel winner in ______ born and living in China.
A．literature.B．peace C．physics D．chemistry
小題2:When did Mo receive the prize?
A．In September B．In OctoberC．In November D．In December
小題3:What did Mo say about himself after he got the prize?
A．He considered he was a superstar.
B．He still considered he was an ordinary citizen who writes.
C．He considered he was famous all over the world.
D．He considered he became rich.
小題4:Who is Frances Adamson?
A．He is the French Ambassador to ChinaB．He is the Canadian Ambassador to China
C．He is the Australian Ambassador to ChinaD．He is the American Ambassador to China
小題5:Which of the following statements is TRUE?
A．Mo didn’t hope to return to my writing deskB．Mo was always upset after the prize .
C．The driving force behind writers is the prize D．Mo’s success will promote Chinese writers.

Have you ever had the strange feeling that you were being watched? You turned around and, sure enough, someone was looking right at you!
Parapsychologists (靈學家) say that humans have a natural ability to sense when someone is looking at them. To research whether such a“sixth sense”really exists, Robert Baker, a psychologist (心理學家) at the University of Kentucky, did two experiments.
In the first one, Baker sat behind unknowing people in public places and stared(盯著）at the backs of their heads for 5 to 15 minutes. The subjects（受試者）were eating, drinking, reading, studying, watching TV, or working at a computer. Baker made sure that the people could not tell that he was sitting behind them during those periods. Later, when he questioned the subjects, almost all of them said they had no sense that someone was staring at them.
For the second experiment, Baker told the subjects that they would be stared at from time to time from behind in a laboratory setting. The people had to write down when they felt they were being stared at and when they weren’t. Baker found that the subjects were no better at telling when they were stared at and when they weren’t.
Baker concludes that people do not have the ability to sense when they’re being stared at. If people doubt the outcome of his two experiments, said Baker,“I suggest they repeat the experiments and see for themselves.”
小題1:The aim of the two experiments is to ________.
A．explain when people can have a sixth sense
B．study how people act while being watched in the lab
C．study whether humans can sense when they are stared at
D．prove why humans have a sixth sense
小題2:The underlined word “outcome” in the last paragraph most probably means ________.
A．valueB．resultC．performanceD．connection
小題3:In the second experiment, the subjects _________.
A．could tell when they were stared at
B．could tell where they weren’t stared at
C．couldn’t tell who they were stared at or who they stared at
D．couldn’t tell when they were stared at or when they weren’t
小題4:What can be learned from the passage?
A．People are born with a sixth sense.
B．The experiments support parapsychologists’ idea.
C．The subjects do not have a sixth sense in the experiments.
D．People have a sixth sense in all places.

An old man lived in a nice house with a large garden. He took care of his flowers all the time, watering and fertilizing them.
One day a young man went by the garden. He looked at the beautiful flowers, imagining how happy he could be if he lived in such a beautiful place. Then ,suddenly he found the old gardener was blind. He was very surprised about this and asked,“You can’t see these flowers. “Why are you busy taking care of them every day?”
The old man smiled and said ,“I can tell you four reasons. First, I was a gardener when I was young, and I really like this job. Second, although I can’t see these flowers, I can touch them. Third, I can smell the sweetness of them. As to the last one, that’s you.”
“Me? But you don’t know me.”said the young man.
“Yeah, it’s true that I don’t know you. But I know that flowers are angels that everybody knows. We enjoy the happiness these flowers have brought us.”
The blind man’s work opened our eyes and pleased our hearts, which also made his life happier. It was just like Beethoven, who became deaf in his later life and wrote many great musical works.

Do you know that a fast reader can get the ideas better than a slow reader can? Of course, you save time by reading fast, but this is not the main reason for fast reading. The main reason is that you understand better what you are reading when you read fast.
As your eyes move along the line of point, they make fixations (固定) or pauses (暫停). It is important that you see several words at a fixation. It is also important that your eyes leave a group. The numbers of letters or words that you see at a fixation are called your eye span (視跨). Pay more attention to improving your rate of reading. With practice you can learn to read faster than you usually read.
The way in which you read always depends on (取決于) what you are reading and for what purpose. You should know the different ways of reading so that you can apply whatever method is necessary. Here are four ways of reading:
(1) Skimming is an important kind of reading. This method can be used when you wish to review something that you have forgotten. You can skim to get the main points.
(2) Rapid (快速) first reading and then rereading certain parts carefully is important. You may use this type of reading to study a science lesson or a history lesson.
(3) You need to do careful reading and rereading sometimes. This type of reading is necessary for making an intensive (細致的) study of your school subjects, solving math problems or reading directions.
(4) Rapid reading is used when reading stories for enjoyment. You may also do rapid reading when reviewing materials that you already know well.
小題1:The main reason for reading fast is that you can ________.
A．get the ideasB．save timeC．understand betterD．learn well
小題2:The way of reading always depends on ________.
A．the method that you likeB．your reading material
C．your reading purposeD．both B and C
小題3:The word “skimming” means “________”.
A．reading the main pointsB．reading carefully
C．reading very fastD．reading some parts of the material
小題4:Careful reading is an important kind of reading ________.
A．when you review a lesson that you already know well
B．when you read the directions before using a camera which is expensive
C．when you read a story of enjoyment
D．when you wish to find a lost place that you have read
