Soon, a golden-haired boy appeared. "Do you have a job for me?" he asked. I told him about a system for sorting books. He picked up the idea immediately. Then I showed him some cards for some unreturned books that I thought had been returned but not recorded. Maybe some books were put on wrong places. He said, "Is it a kind of a detective(侦探) job?" I answered yes, and then began his work.
He had found three books with wrong cards by the time his teacher opened the door and said, "Time for rest!" he argued for finishing the finding job, but the teacher won.
The next morning, he arrived early, "I want to finish these books," he said. At the end of the day, when he asked to work with me more often, it was easy for me to say yes.
After a few weeks I found a note on my desk, inviting me to dinner at the boy's home. At the end of a pleasant evening, his mother declared that the family would be moving to another school. Her son's first concern, she said,was leaving the library. "Who will find the lost books?" he asked.

Marianne Moore (1887—1972) once said that her writing could be called poetry only because there was no other name for it. Indeed her poems appear to be extremely compressed essays that happen to be printed in jagged lines on the page. Her subjects were varied: animals, laborers, artists, and the craft of poetry. From her general reading came quotations that she found striking or insightful. She included these in her poems, scrupulously enclosed in quotation marks, and sometimes identified in footnotes. Of this practice, she wrote," ,Why the many quotation marks?' I am asked...When a thing has been said so well that it could not be said better, why paraphrase it? Hence my Writing is, if not a cabinet of fossils, a kind of collection of flies in amber." Close observation and concentration on details are the methods of her poetry.
Marianne Moore grew up in Kirkwood, Missouri, near St. Louis. After graduation from Bryn Mawr College in 1909, she taught commercial subjects at the Indian School in Carlisle, Pennsylvania. Later she became a librarian in New York City. During the 1920's she was an editor of The Dial, an important literary mfigazine of the period. She lived quietly all her life, mostly in Brooklyn, New York. She spent a lot of time at the Bronx Zoo, fascinated by animals. Her admiration of the Brooklyn Dodgers—before the team moved to Los Angeles—was widely known.
Her first book of poems was published in London in 1921 by a group of friends associated with the Imagist movement. From that time on her poetry has been read with interest by succeeding generations of poets and readers. In 1952 she was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for her Collected Poems. She wrote that she did not write poetry "for money or fame. To earn a living is needful, but it can be done in routine ways: One writes because one has a burning desire to objectify what it is indispensable to one's happiness to express ..."
What would be the best title for the passage?
A.The Influence of the Imagists on Marianne Moore
B.Marianne Moore's Ideas on Poetry Writing
C.Quotations in Marianne Moore's Poetry
D.Marianne Moore's Life and Work
Harry Potter has bewitched detainees (未判决囚犯) at the U.S.
prison at Guantanamo Bay, there tales of the young wizard and 【M1】______
mysteries by Agatha Christie top the list of most popular books,
according to a prison librarian.
"Harry Potter is the popular tine among some of the detainee 【M2】______
population," said the librarian, a civilian contractor identified only as
"Lorie" who works at the prison camp for foreign terrorism suspects
at the U.S. naval base in Cuba.
Lorie said the popular of the best-selling Harry Potter books, 【M3】______
which recount the adventures of a boy wizard as he triumphs the 【M4】______
powers of evil, was matched only by the prisoners' passion for
Agatha Christie.
The Guantanamo Bay prison-which has come under fierce
attack by human rights groups for its treatment and indefinite
detention of prisoners-holds about 510 suspects from 40 countries.
But even this remote prison has not escaped the world-wide
frenzy over the escapades of Harry Potter and his friends at the
Hogwarts School of Wizardry and Witchcraft. The sixth book in the
series by author J.K. Rowling, who went on sale last month, is the 【M5】______
fastest-selling book of all time.
"We have Harry Potter as four languages, English, French, 【M6】______
Farsi and Russian. We have it on order in Arabic. We do not have
books Five and Six in the series this time. We have had several 【M7】______
detainees read the series," Lorie told reporters.
"One prisoner has requested the movies," she said.
When asked that other books were among the prisoners' favourites, 【M8】______
Lofie said, "We have 12 different Agatha Christie rifles in Arabic that are
very popular. Also 1001 Arabian Nights."
The United States opened the Guantanamo prison in January
2002. A total of 242 detainees have been transferred out of the prison
to other countries either to be freed or for continuous detention, 【M9】______
while approximately 510 remain at Guantanamo, according to the
Pentagon. Many have been held for more than three years and the 【M10】______
only four have been charged.

Section B
Directions: In this section, you will hear 3 short passages. At the end of each passage, you will hear some questions. Both the passage and the questions will be spoken only once. After you hear a question, you must choose the best answer from the four choices marked A, B, C and D.
听力原文: The silence of the Reference Library was broken only by an occasional cough and now and then by the scarcely audible sound of pages being turned over. There were about twenty people in the room, most of them with their heads bent over their books. The assistant librarian who was in charge of the room sat at a desk in one comer. She glanced at Philip as he came in, and then went on with her work.
Philip has not been to this part of the library before. He walked around the room almost on tiptoe, afraid of disturbing the industrious readers with his heavy shoes. The shelves were filled with thick volumes: dictionaries in any languages, encyclopedias, atlases, biographies and other works of reference. He found nothing that was likely to interest him until he came to a small shelf out of his reach, so he had to fetch a small ladder in order to get one down. Unfortunately, as he was climbing down the ladder, the book he had chosen slipped from his grasp and fell to the floor with a loud crash. Twenty pairs of eyes looked up at him simultaneously, annoyed by his unaccustomed disturbance. Philip felt himself go red as he picked up his book, which did not seem to have been damaged by its fall.
He had just sat down when he found the young lady assistant standing alongside him. "You must be more careful when you are handling these books." she said severely. Satisfied that she had done her duty, she turned to go back to her desk. Then a sudden thought struck her. "By the way, how old are you?' she asked Philip. "Thirteen." He told her. "You are not allowed in here if you're under the age of fourteen, you know," the assistant said. "Didn't you see the notice on the door?" Philip shook his head. He expected the assistant to ask him to leave. Instead, in a more kindly tone, she said, "Well, never mind. But make sure that you don't disturb the other readers again, otherwise I shall have to ask you to leave."

A.Philip has not been to this part of the library before.
B.It was very quiet in the library.
C.Philip fell off the ladder and made a loud noise.
D.The librarian was very kind to readers.
Mr. Hall, a poet in the distinctive American tradition of Robert Frost, has also been a harsh critic of the religious right's influence on government arts policy. And as a member of the advisory council of the National Endowment for the Arts during the administration of George H. W. Bush, he referred to those he thought were interfering with arts grants as "bullies and art bashers".
He will succeed Ted Kooser, the Nebraskan who has been the poet laureate since 2004.
The announcement of Mr. Hall's appointment is to be made by James H. Billington, the Librarian of Congress. Mr. Billington said that he chose Mr. Hall because of "the sustained quality of his poetry, the reach and the variety of things he talks about." Like Mr. Kooser, Mr. Billington said, Mr. Hall "evokes a sense of place."
Mr. Hall, 77, lives in a white clapboard farmhouse in Wilmot, N. H. , that has been in his family for generations. He said in a telephone interview that he didn't see the poet laureateship as a bully pulpit. "But it's a pulpit anyway," he said. "If I see First Amendment violations, I will speak up."
Mr. Hall is an extremely productive writer who has published about 18 books of poetry, 20 books of prose and 12 children's books. He has won many awards, including a national Book Critics Circle Award in 1989 for "The One Day," a collection.
In recent years much of his poetry has been preoccupied with the death of his wife, the poet Jane Kenyon, in 1995.
Robert Pinsky, who was poet laureate from 1997 to 2000 said he welcomed Mr. Hall's appointment, especially in light of his previous outspokenness about politics and arts. "There is something nicely symbolic, and maybe surprising," Mr. Pinsky said, "that they have selected someone who has taken a stand for freedom."
The position carries an award of $35,000 and $5,000 travel allowance. It usually lasts a year, though poets are sometimes reappointed.
Donald Hall ______ .
A.uses simple English to express the images of the New England landscape
B.dislikes the idea of impacting government by the right side of the religion
C.is the 14th poet laureate appointed by the Congress
D.is a member of the advisory council of the National Endowment for the Arts
