About the Brookfield Zoo:

The Brookfield Zoo is located just 14 miles west of downtown Chicago.

The absence of bars also makes for great wildlife photo opportunities. The Brookfield Zoo also focuses on education, with detailed displays about the animals being viewed and the interactive program that lets kids get some hands-on experience to learn what it takes to run a zoo as well as face painting and crafts.

Uncivilized behavior by passengers unacceptable

For the first time, airline passengers have been blacklisted for uncivilized behavior. Their names will remain on the blacklist for one or two years, according to an announcement by the China Air Transport Association on Saturday. The blacklisting means they will not be able to travel by air until their names are removed from the list.

Blacklisting passengers who disobey the rules for traveling by air and so place their own interests before everything else, including safety, has long been overdue (遲到的，延遲的).

There have been frequent reports of passengers making a scene when their flight was delayed or when they believed that they were not treated as they should be on a flight.

Yet it is natural for some flights to be delayed because of reasons such as bad weather or mechanical problems that need to be solved. However, some passengers seem to take it for granted that their flight must take off at the time stated on their ticket, and they even assume that the members of the cabin crew are simply there to do their bidding(吩咐).

They forget that they should behave themselves in the first place and that respect is reciprocal (互相給與的).There is no reason for them to be respected when they do not show enough respect for others.

Observing rules can never be over-emphasized when it comes to flight safety. No one has the right to disregard the rules for any reason. Of course, airlines should provide quality services to meet the needs of passengers. Yet, even if passengers are not satisfied with the service provided, there is still no reason for them to flout the rules that are designed for the safety of all.

The blacklisting of these three passengers should serve for others to know they have to toe the line (順從集體).

1.Which of the following statements is TRUE?

A. Never before have airline passengers been blacklisted.

B. At no time should flights be delayed, whatever the reasons.

C. Members of the cabin crew should be at the passengers’ service at any moment.

D. If an airline passenger is blacklisted, he or she will never be allowed to travel by air.

2.The underlined word “observing” in paragraph 6 is closest in meaning to ________.

A. abolishing B. violating

C. setting D. obeying

3.According Paragraph 4, the author’s attitude towards some passengers is ________.

A. Tolerate B. Curious

C. Critical D. Neutral

4.The text is most probably taken from ________.

A. a research paper B. a newspaper report

C. an advertisement D. a flight guide

Those accustomed to browsing through thousands of books in large bookstores may find Japan’s Morioka Shoten a little strange. That’s because this tiny bookstore that is located in Ginza, Tokyo sells only a single book at a time.

Opened in May 2015, Morioka Shoten is the brainchild of Yoshiyuki Morioka. He began his career as a bookstore clerk in Tokyo’s Kanda district before branching out to open his own store. It was here while organizing book reading and signing that he realized that customers usually came into the store with one title in mind. Morioka began to wonder if a store could exist by selling multiple copies of just one single book. In November 2014, he partnered with Masamichi Toyama to establish a unique bookstore with the philosophy of “A Single Room with a Single Book”.

The selections that are picked by Morioka change weekly and vary widely to attract customers with different interests. Recent choices include The True Deceiver, an award-winning Swedish novel by Tove Jansson, Hans Andersen’s Fairy Tales, and a collection of Karl Blossfeldt’s photography of plants. Morioka has also selected books written by a famous Japanese author Mimei Ogawa.

To highlight his only offering, Morioka often uses clever tricks. For example, when selling a book about flowers, the storekeeper decorated his shop with the ones that had been mentioned in the book. He also encourages authors to hold talks and discussions so they can connect with customers. Morioka says his goal is for the customers to experience being inside a book, not just a bookstore.

Risky as the idea might seem, things appear to be going well. The storekeeper says he has sold over 2,100 books. Things can get better given that his bookstore is becoming increasingly popular not just among the locals but also visitors form other countries.

1.What inspired Morioka to open such a bookstore?

A. A Swedish novel.

B. His present partner.

C. A bookstore clerk.

D. His working experience.

2.Why is Morioka Shoten unique?

A. It is popular with foreigners.

B. It sells books of different topics.

C. It is decorated with colorful flowers.

D. It sells various copies of a book in a week.

3.Why does Morioka encourage authors to hold talks?

A. To introduce his bookstore.

B. To advocate his philosophy.

C. To make books better understood.

D. To help readers make more friends.

4.What’s the author’s opinion about the bookstore’s future?

A. Risky. B. Promising.

C. Unpredictable. D. Hopeless.
