• 2．One day，a college student was taking a walk with a professor．As they went along，they saw lying in the path a pair of old shoes．They supposed the shoes belonged to a poor man who was employed in a field close by，and who had nearly finished his day's work．
     The student turned to the professor，saying， "Let us play the man a trick：we will hide his shoes，and hide ourselves behind those bushes，and wait to see his confusion when he cannot find them．"
     "My young friend，" answered the professor， "we should never amuse ourselves at the expense of the poor．But you are rich，and may give yourself a much greater pleasure by tricking on the poor man．Put a coin into each shoe，and then we will hide ourselves and watch how the discovery affects him． "
     The student did so，and they both placed themselves behind the bushes close by．The poor man soon finished his work，and came across the field to the path where he had left his coat and shoes．While putting on his coat he slipped his foot into one of his shoes，but feeling something hard，he bent down to feel what it was，and found the coin．Astonishment and wonder were seen on his face．
     He fixed his eyes on the coin，turned it round，and looked at it again and again．He then looked around him on all sides，but no person was to be seen．He now put the money into his pocket，and continued to put on the other shoe；but his surprise was doubled on finding the other coin．His feelings overcame him．He fell upon his knees，looked up to heaven and cried a sincere Thanksgiving，in which he spoke of his wife，sick and helpless，and his children without bread，whom the timely help，from some unknown hand，would save from dying．
     The student stood there，deeply affected，and his eyes filled with tears． "Now，" said the professor， "are you not much better pleased than if you had played your intended trick？"
     The youth replied， "You have taught me a lesson which I will never forget．"

• 3．Speed-reading is a necessary skill in the Internet age．We skim over articles，e-mails and WeChat to try to grasp key words and the essential meaning of a certain text．Surrounded with information from our electronic devices，it would be impossible to cope if we read word by word，line by line．But a new trend encourages people to enjoy reading slowly，listing benefits beyond the intelligent stimulation．
     A recent story from The Wall Street Journal reported on a book club in Wellington，New Zealand，where members meet in a cafe and turn off their smartphones．They sink into cozy chairs and read in silence for an hour．Unlike traditional book clubs，the point of the slow reading club isn't exchanging ideas about a certain book，but to get away from electronic devices and read in a quiet，relaxed environment．According to the Journal，the Wellington book club is just one example of a movement started by book lovers who miss the old-fashioned way of reading before the Internet and smartphones．
     Slow readers，such as The Atlantic's Maura Kelly，say a regular reading habit sharpens the mind，improves concentration，reduces stress levels and deepens the ability to sympathize.Another study published last year in science showed that reading novels slowly helps people understand other's mental states and beliefs，a fundamental skill in building relationships．
     Yet technology has made us less attentive readers.Screens have changed our reading patterns from the straight and information left-to-right sequence to a wild skimming and skipping pattern as we hunt for important words and information．Reading text punctuated with links leads to weaker comprehension than reading plain text．The Internet may have made us stupider，says Patrick Kingsey from The Guardian．Because of the Internet，he says，we have become very good at collecting a wide range of interesting news，but we are also gradually forgetting how to sit back，reflect，and relate all these facts to each other．
     Slow reading means a return to an uninterrupted，straight pattern，in a quiet environment free of distractions．Aim for 30 minutesa day，advises Kelly from The Atlantic．"You can squeeze in that half hour pretty easily if only during your free moments，you pick up a meaningful work of literature，"Kelly said．"Reach for your e-reader，if you like．Kindles make books like War and Peace less heavy，not less substantive，and also ensure you'll never lose your place．"
  
  （1）The book club in Wellington mentioned in Paragraph 2 shows

  .
  A．the increasing number of club readers
  B．the decline of electronic devices
  C．the importance of exchanging ideas
  D．the new trend of slow reading
  （2）According to Patrick Kingsley，people are stupider partly because of

  .
  A．the lack of reflection
  B．the straight，left-to-right screen
  C．a(chǎn) wide range of interesting news
  D．a(chǎn) non-stop reading pattern
  （3）According to the passage，slow reading

  .
  A．promotes the current technology advances
  B．contributes to understanding among people
  C．provides people with a quiet environment
  D．cures the memory loss of elderly people
  （4）What's the writer's main purpose in writing the passage？

  
  A．To call on us to read slowly．
  B．To emphasize the benefit of Reading Clubs．
  C．To tell us we are entering the Internet Age．
  D．To highlight the influence of Speed Reading．
