Reading makes a full man, and you should know that improvements do not happen in a day. Reading allows you to soothe (安抚) your brain and calm your nerves, but it takes years to make you a good calm reader. Reading has to be tested and applied throughout your daily life to find calmness.

There are three habits you can use to become calm through reading. Let's get started.

●  Note down lots of information

It's challenging for our brains to get so much information while reading. For that, keep a diary with you when you're reading. Open your journal (日志) and make several sections. After that, whenever you come across useful information, note it down in the available categories (类别). Also, having a backup (备份) in a notebook lets you remember you kept the vital information.

●  ___________▲___________

Having a bottle of water by your side every time you read a book is a plus. Whenever your mind wanders, drink the water. Water allows your brain to work better. Drinking lots of water means taking a break every 20 minutes. This means drinking water provides you with a natural way to relax.

●  Keep the door closed

No one can know you're reading. You can become angry when people disturb you. These three pieces of advice will help you to keep a closed door.

Your reading shouldn't be in between tasks. Reading because you're bored isn't right. Make time for your reading after you've done with your work. For example, choose a night time after completing you chores. Turn your cell phone into sleep mode or wake up early in the morning to read before having breakfast.

Reading is not a low-end task. You can get all the benefits (益处) in a single book if you want. You just have to do right by your reading habit.

23. The underlined word "vital" in Para. 3 probably means ____________.

A. Interesting       B. important       C. new      D.careful

24. Which one of the following titles can be put in ______▲______.

A. Drink less water                  B. Take a break

C. Keep a bottle of water             D. Eat some food

25. From the writer's point of view, ____________.

A. drinking the water while reading is not necessary

B. reading means writing down every little piece of information

C. reading can be a pleasant experience between tasks

D. it's possible for you to calm down by reading

26. The text is probably from the column (栏目) of ____________ in a magazine.

A. Education         B.Food        C. Sports        D. Travel

(D)

①Whether you believe in climate change or not, the loss of housing due to floods is a big problem all over the world, and while engineers have been trying to find solutions, few have actually worked.

②Now .Japanese housing developer lchijo Komuten recently showed a "flood-resistant (抗洪) house that can not only remain waterproof (防水) during floods but also float off the ground. He comes up with an answer to keep people's homes from getting flooded as well as swept away by floods. Their new "flood-resistant house" was recently shown on a popular Japanese TV show and has received much attention online ever since

③ Japan's TV station recently visited one of Ichijo's test sites where the company's new

flood-resistant house was being put through a flood. Although it looked just like a common house when the test began, by the time that water started rising around it, viewers could see the structure leave the ground and finally float a few inches above it.

④How does the "flood-resistant house" work? It has special vents (通风口) that close up in the event of flooding, and the plumbing (管道) also has special valves (阀门) that prevent water from getting into the home. Electrical equipment like air conditioning is positioned on the upper half of the building to make sure that water doesn't reach it.

⑤What's more, 's newest invention prevents the house from being swept away. The house is connected to a number of thick iron rods(铁棒) sticking out of the ground with thick cables that ensure it stays in place as the water floods past. When the waters recede, the floating house comes back down in its own position.

⑥According to engineers, most homes flood when water reaches the window level, but because their flood-resistant house can float up to five meters above ground, water is unlikely to reach the windows, and everything else is shut. It works quite well.

27. What's the writing purpose of this passage?

A. To introduce the flood-resistant house to people

B. To show the history of flood-resistant house.

C. To explain the importance of flood-resistant house.

D. To ask people offer advice on flood-resistant house

28. According to passage, flood-resistant house is a house which ____________.

A. looks different from others at first

B. can leave the ground and float above it

C. gets little attention online

D. can't go back down its own place

29. The Para. 4 mainly tells us ____________.

A. what the flood-resistant house is like

B. where the flood-resistant house is shown

C. who invented the flood-resistant house

D. how the flood-resistant house works

30. From the passage, we can infer that ____________.

A. the house cannot prevent water from getting inside

B. the house may get more and more popular in the future

C. it will be expensive to buy the house

D. all the people would like to buy the house
