If you don’t want to buy books, I personally use Libby (or overdrive. com) to connect to my public library’s entire ebook and audiobook database. Here is my take on a well-rounded, diverse, and boredom-curing reading list: SALT TO THE SEA by Ruta Sepytys This is a young-adult historical fiction about the sinking of the Wilhelm Gustloff in 1945. The story is from the point of view of four refugees (难民) from different countries, all keeping life-threatening secrets and struggling to escape to freedom. AND THEN THERE WERE NONE by Agatha Christie One of the best murder mysteries of all time. 10 strangers are invited to a remote island by a secret person and are murdered one-by-one mirroring a nursery rhyme. You absolutely won’t guess who the killer is. EDUCATED by Tara Westover Completely isolated from society, Westover spent her young life living in a remote mountainous area where no one would ensure the children to receive an education. But Tara decided to try a new kind of life. Her quest for knowledge transformed her and ultimately she was accepted to Harvard and Cambridge University. Her story of fulfilling transformation of life is inspiring and may be exactly what you’re looking for. THE DIVINERS by Libba Bray This is a young-adult fantasy that follows a group of teens with powers in 1920s New York City. When Evie stays with her uncle, a string of murders occur. We follow each character as they find their powers and find out who’s killing people. The book’s a little long, but the twists, the 1920s slang, and the diverse and layered characters make it worthwhile. 1. What is the advantage of Libby according to the author? A. It provides information on boredom. B. It recommends ways to search online. C. It helps to get access to the public library. D. It shares some writers’ personal book lists. 2. What is the book EDUCATED about? A. A historical event. B. An inspiring life story. C. A young-adult fantasy. D. A life-threatening secret story. 3. Which books will attract the readers who are into stories of murder? A. SALT TO THE SEA & EDUCATED. B. SALT TO THE SEA & THE DIVINERS. C. AND THEN THERE WERE NONE & EDUCATED. D. AND THEN THERE WERE NONE & THE DIVINERS. 【1~3 题答案】 【答案】1. C2. B3. D B In Rochester, if you are a coffee lover, you must have heard of Java Joe’s Cafe. For the local students, the Java Joe’s on Gibbs Street has become a place of solace during stressful testing times, and on more heartwarming occasions, a social center. Slowly approaching its thirties, Java Joe’s has enjoyed a good reputation in its local. In 1978, Java Joe created a coffee farm in Hawaii. With great dedication to his craft, the great master of coffee beans made his way to Rochester then. In 1992, Joe decided to start selling coffee at the Public Market and opened up a store on Gibbs Street with the help of Michael Calabrese. So this store was originally named as the Gibbs Cafe. This location, next to the Eastman School of Music, is the first of many shops Java Joe opened. As a lover of the blues, Joe enthusiastically decorated this flagship store with artistic and musical influence. After Gibbs’ location, Joe planted another one where he was first starting out — in the Public Market. Later, it moved to a nearby building and received a name change — Java’s at the Market Coffee Roasters. This building served as a place where those who visited would often catch a glimpse of Joe skillfully roasting his coffee beans in the dancing flames and cultivating his drinks with care. However, in 1997 he licensed “the Gibbs Cafe” to Calabrese, who then renamed it to what we know today — Java Joe’s Cafe. Joe remained in the Public Market location until he was diagnosed with a brain tumor. Joe died of lung cancer at 68. The influence he had poured into his business is well-known and highly regarded. He has won many awards in his life. The next time you head down to Gibbs Street for your morning cup, keep in mind the extraordinary story of how that cup came to be, all thanks to Java Joe. 4. What does the underlined word “solace” in Paragraph 1 probably mean? A. Tension. B. Relief. C. Anxiety. D. Safety. 5. What is true about Java Joe’s Cafe on Gibbs Street? A. It is the flagship store and has won an award. B. Java Joe had the ownership of the shop in 1997. C. The name of the shop keeps unchanged up to now. D. It was popular with the locals and students as well. 6. What is special about Java’s at the Market Coffee Roasters? A. Joe’s specially-made coffee beans. B. Its super-quality coffee and service. C. Joe’s display of coffee-making skills. D. Its attraction to the music school students. 7. What is the text mainly about? A. The popularity of Java Joe’s Cafe. B. The development of the coffee industry. C. The contribution Joe made to Rochester. D. The founder and development of Java Joe’s Cafe. 【4~7 题答案】 【答案】4. B5. D6. C7.
