An advance in electronic publishing could make the book you are reading-seem as out-of-date as a silent film. Publishers hope to exploit (利用) the growing success of ebooks by releasing versions with added soundtracks and musical accompaniment.
The noise in the first multimedia books— released-in Britain— include rain hitting a window in a Sherlock Holmes tale. Works. by Oscar. Wilde and Rudyard Kipling; are also available. When the plot of a book reaches a climax (高潮), background music will create tension. In America, works. by Shakespeare and Jane Austen have already been released with music and background noise so that, for example, readers can hear tea cups clinking in Mr Darcy's-garden as they read Pride and Prejudice.
Supporters argue that sound effects are the next logical development for, ebooks and will add excitement for younger readers. Critics, however, will argue that the noises will ruin the simple pleasure of having the imagination stimulated by reading.,
Caroline Michel, chief executive of the literary agency PFD*, said the new generation of computer-literate readers was used to multiple sensory input. She said:“Concentration now is such that people have split computer screens where they may be watching television and replying to an email at the same time. If that's what the market wants then we should respond to the market.”
Booktrack's sound effects work by estimating the user's reading speed. Each time you“turn” a page, the software reassesses where you have reached in the text and times the sounds to switch on accordingly. If the soundtrack becomes out of synch.(同步), a click on any word will re-set it.
Some authors fear a soundtrack could destroy the peace and quiet of libraries and ruin the pleasure of reading. David Nicholls, author of One Day. the bestseller now released as a film, said:“This sounds like the opposite of reading. It would be a distraction. I have enough trouble reading an ebook because. I'm constantly disturbed by emails and so I've given up on it for the time being.”
Stuart MacBride, the crime writer whose novel Shatter the Bones was an ebook bestseller, sells 18% of his books as electronic downloads. He said:“If I'm reading,I will do the noises in my head. I don't need someone to tell me what crunching gravel (嘎吱响的。石子) sounds like. That would annoy me.”
*PFD: Peters Fraser + Dunlop is one of the longest-established literary and talent agencles in London representing writers, broadcasters, speakers and journalists, etc.
56 The ebook soundtrack is intended to
A. make readers focus on the story
B. be, o readers with unknown vocabulary
C. strengthen readers' impression of characters
D. add tension when the book reaches an exciting point
57. Caroline Michel thinks that computer-literate readers .
A. ignore the multiple sensory input
B. focus on enjoying the pleasure of reading
C. are used to doing several things at the same time
D. consider the soundtrack's influence on reading speed
58 The underlined word“it” in Paragraph 5 refers to .
A. the soundtrack B. the speed of reading
C. the software D. the required time
59. What is David Nicholls' attitude towards the soundtrack
A. Favorable. B. Doubtful C. Disapproving. D. Objective.

People from East Asia tend to have more difficulty than those from Europe in distinguishing facial expressions —— and a new report published online in Current Biology explains why.
Rachael Jack, University of Glasgow researcher, said that rather than scanning evenly across a face as Westerners do, Easterners fix their attention on the eyes.
“We show that Easterners and Westerners look at different face features to read facial expressions,” Jack said. “Westerners look at the eyes and the mouth in equal measure,whereas Easterners favor the eyes and overlook the mouth.”
According to Jack and her colleagues, the discovery shows that human communication of emotion is more complex than previously believed. As a result, facial expressions that had been considered universally recognizable cannot be used to reliably convey emotion in cross-cultural situations.
The researchers studied cultural differences in the recognition of facial expressions by recording the eye movements of 13 Western Caucasian and 13 East Asian people while they observed pictures of expressive faces and put them into categories: happy, sad,surprised, fearful, disgusted(厌恶的), angry, or neutral (中性的). “They compared how Accurately participants read those facial expressions using their particular eye movement strategies.
It turned out that Easterners focused much greater attention on the eyes and made significantly more errors than Westerners did. “The cultural difference in eye movements that they show is probably a reflection of cultural difference in facial expressions,” Jack said. “Our data. suggest that whereas Westerners use the whole face to convey emotion,Easterners use the eyes more and mouth less.”
In short, the data show that facial expressions are not universal signals of human emotion. From here on, examining how cultural factors have diversified (多样化) these basic social skills will help our understanding of human emotion. Otherwise, when it comes to communicating emotions across cultures, Easterners and Westerners will find themselves lost in translation.
61. The discovery shows that Westerners .
A. consider facial expressions universally reliable
B. pay equal attention to the eyes and the mouth
C. observe the eyes and the mouth in different ways
D. have more difficulty in recognizing facial expressions
62. What were the people asked to do in the study
A. To make a face at each other.
B. To get their faces impressive.
C. To classify some face pictures.
D. To observe the researchers' faces.
63. In comparison with Westerners, Easterners are likely to .
A. examine the eyes more attentively B study the mouth more frequently
C. perform translation more successfully D. read facial expressions more correctly
6a. What key weakness might critics highlight about the study's design
A. Dependence on subjective emotion categorization
B. Use of posed photos instead of natural expressions
C. Lack of more diverse American cultural groups
D. Failure to track eye movements during observation
65. What can be the best title for the passage
A. The Eye as the Window to the Soul
B. Cultural Differences in Reading Emotions
C. Effective Methods to Develop Social Skills
D. How to Increase Cross-cultural Understanding

The students of Carlton Primary School are treated to an after-school program once a week to learn how to keep healthy and get along with the community through playing sports.
Louise Larcombe was studying for a Master's in Public Health at the University of Melbourne when she started looking for a way to help out the local community. She decided to join the Heart of Carlton program run by Sports Without Borders in 2019. She is now in her third year of volunteering for the program. The program is designed to get school kids to connect with their local community through sports.
It addresses a different theme each week for the children to learn about and discuss,such as a healthy diet, good sportsmanship, and teamwork. Larcombe said it can be quite a challenge for her because a classroom-of kids can be pretty wild after class, and they want to go play soccer instead of listening to her.
Larconbe found it easy to get involved because sports naturally attracted her and she wanted to understand the effects of sports on a community directly. “Sport is a cool platform for improving health. People get the physical activity and it brings them together.It's a good platform for health messaging,” she said. Larcombe believes the Heart of Carlton program is a great stepping stone for people to connect with the community.
Sports Without Borders has a good support network, where teachers are involved from the get-go, and parents often lend their support. Meanwhile, it is also assisted by the R. E. Ross Trust and the Telco Together Foundation, helping primary school kids learn through sports.
81. What did Larcombe do as her mission in volunteering for the Heart of Carlton program in 2019 (no more than 12 words)
82. What bothered Larcombe in her volunteer work for the program (no more than 12words)
83. What is the role of sports in communities in Larcombe's view (no more than 15words)
84. What is the meaning of the underlined phrase“stepping stone” in the last paragraph (no more than 5 words)

Dear Jim,
How's everything going I'm so excited to tell you about our school sports meet last week! The whole playground was full of cheers and laughter. Colorful flags waved everywhere, students shouted encouragement for their classmates, and the loud music made everyone's heart beat faster.
I competed in the 100-meter race and the 4x100m relay. When I ran the 100-meter, my legs felt like heavy rocks at first, but I pushed myself to rush to the finish line. I didn't win, yet I felt proud just for trying my best! In the relay race, my teammate passed me the-stick smoothly. We ran like a team of wild horses, passing others with all our strength.Though we didn't win either, our teamwork made us smile.
This experience taught me that sports are not just about winning. Real victory lies in courage to challenge myself and the joy of working together with friends. Life is like a race— what matters most is not how fast you run, but how bravely you keep running against your own limits.
Can't wait to hear from you!
Yours
Li Jin
