二. 完型填空 （每小题1分，共15分）

Most parents, I suppose, have had the experience of reading a bedtime story to their children. And they must have 26 how difficult it is to write a 27 children’s book. Either the author has aimed too 28 , so that the children can’t follow what is in his (or more often, her) story, 29 the story seems to be talking to the readers.

The best children’s books are 30 very difficult nor very simple, and satisfy both the 31 who hears the story and the adult who 32 it. Unfortunately, there are in fact few books like this, 33 the problem of finding the right bedtime story is not 34 to solve. This may be why many of the books regarded as 35 of children’s literature were in fact written for 36 . “Alice in wonderland” is perhaps the most obvious of this.

Children, left for themselves, often 37 the worst possible interest in literature. Just leave a child in a bookshop or a 38 and he will more willingly choose the books written in an imaginative way, or have a look at most children’s comics, full of the stories and jokes which are the objections of teachers and right-thinking parents.

Perhaps we parents should stop 39 to brainwash children into accepting our taste in literature. After all children and adults are so 40 that we parents should not expect that they will enjoy the same books. So I suppose we’ll just have to compromise（妥协） over the bedtime story.

（ ）26 A. hoped B. realized C. told D. said

（ ）27. A. short B. long C. bad D. good

（ ）28. A. easy B. short C. high D. difficult

（ ）29. A. and B. but C. or D. so

（ ）30. A. both B. neither C. either D. very

（ ）31. A. child B. father C. mother D. teacher

（ ）32. A. hears B. buys C. understands D. reads

（ ）33. A. but B. however C. so D. because

（ ）34. A. hard B. easy C. enough D. fast

（ ）35. A. articles B. work C. arts D. works

（ ）36. A. grown-ups B. girls C. boys D. children

（ ）37. A. become B. show C. find D. add

（ ）38. A. school B. home C. office D. library

（ ）39. A. going B. liking C. trying D. preferring

（ ）40. A. same B. friendly C. different D. common

And then he saw the next homeless man. He was shivering because of coldness. The young man now stopped for a second and gave his scarf to him. He then said goodbye to him with a big smile and went away in the snow.

There is an experiment with the name “Mars 500” in Russia. Six volunteers take part in the experiment. They come from China, Russia, France and Italy. They won’t go to outer space. They will stay in small modules (太空舱) on the ground for 520 days. It’s just like a real journey
