The book that can’t wait

One problem a lot of people have with books is that they buy them and then never start reading them.

To  【1】 , a foreign publisher called Eterna Cadencia came up with a very clever idea: it printed the words of the books in disappearing ink: the text of the book vanishes(消失) two months after the special package of the book is opened, so that encouraging buyers to start reading it 【2】 it goes away. They call this “the book that can’t wait.”

According to a video presented with the story, the book was 【3】 . The publisher sold out the whole first edition(版) at a bookstore the day it was printed, and received “thousands of requests” for more copies of the book. It also got a lot of news reports. As a result, the publisher is planning to publish 【4】 kinds of books in disappearing ink.

In some ways, the idea is pretty clever. 【5】 , we still have some suggestions:

First, the book should start the vanishing process after the reader first opens the book. If the vanishing ink books become very popular in the future, readers will need to read them one at a time. They don’t want their books to vanish before they read the first page.

Second, the vanished book should find a 【6】 use. Maybe they can be recycled, or maybe we can use them as notebooks. It would be a more environmentally friendly way to do this.

【解析】

試題分析：短文大意：有很多擁有書的人都有一個(gè)問(wèn)題就是他們買書啦但并沒(méi)有開始閱讀。本文介紹了一種不能等待的書。

1.為了解決這個(gè)問(wèn)題，一個(gè)外國(guó)出版商想出一個(gè)非常聰明的主意。answer the question回答問(wèn)題； take the place of books代替書本；solve this problem解決問(wèn)題；be fond of the books 喜歡書。根據(jù)上句One problem a lot of people have with books is that they buy them and then never start reading them.并且結(jié)合下句a foreign publisher called Eterna Cadencia came up with a very clever idea可推知該選C。

2.

3.這本書取得了巨大的成功。a terrible dream可怕的夢(mèng)； a big problem大問(wèn)題； a large amusement一個(gè)大型的娛樂(lè)； a great success巨大的成功。根據(jù)下句The publisher sold out the whole first edition(版) at a bookstore the day it was printed, and received “thousands of requests” for more copies of the book. It also got a lot of news reports. 可知該選D。

4.一樣； other其他的； expensive昂貴的；successful成功的。聯(lián)系上文可推出本句句意：作為一個(gè)結(jié)果，出版商計(jì)劃用消失的墨水制作其他種類的書。所以選B。

5.在某些方面，這個(gè)想法非常聰明。然而，我們?nèi)匀挥幸恍┙ㄗh。However然而；So所以；Luckily幸運(yùn)地；Finally最后。練習(xí)前后句句意可知該選A。

6.消失的書應(yīng)該找到一個(gè)好的用途。 strange陌生的，奇怪的； hard困難的；good好的；traditional傳統(tǒng)的。根據(jù)下句Maybe they can be recycled, or maybe we can use them as notebooks.可推知該選C。

考點(diǎn)：日常生活類短文。
