21、   Fantasy as a genre is often unfairly wronged. While there are plenty of authors who seem to be paid by the word and are only concerned with expanding volume, there are many authors producing fantastic works that are worthy of the word literature. While there were many worthy competitors, here are what we consider to be the great work of the greatest fantasy series of all time.

1. The Dark Tower by Stephen King

The Dark Tower actually shares some similarities with The Wheel of Time. In both series the first four books are the strongest, and you also get the sense with both Robert Jordan and Stephen King that they didn’t quite know how to end their creation, which led to a very controversial ending in The Dark Tower’s case along with some questionable decisions by King like his self-insertion in the story.

King has created one of the most iconic fantasy characters of all time in the Gunslinger Roland and the world he creates, with all of its similarities to our reality, is a prosperous one. It’s too bad that Stephen King doesn’t dabble(涉猎) more in fantasy, because he clearly has a talent for world building. Not to mention everything he writes seems to be phone book sized, which would fit right in with the fantasy genre.

2. Harry Potter by J.K. Rowling

When considering a ranking of the greatest fantasy series of all time, the question of Harry Potter is a tricky one. There’s inevitably opposition when something is as popular as Rowling’s work, and add to that the fact that the series is seemingly meant for children and you have a case that naturally inspires a lot of debate. I’m not sure I believe Rowling did anything particularly new with Harry Potter, but a work doesn’t necessarily have to be innovative for it to be great. Nearly every fantasy series owes a debt to Tolkien for instance, but that doesn’t mean Tolkien has written the only work of fantasy that matters. Rowling didn’t really come up with anything new, but the connection she made with tens of millions of readers is praiseworthy. People will be reading Harry Potter for decades to come, and I’m not sure a better introduction to fantasy could be found.

【1】What do we know about the two books?

A. King’s work The Wheel of Time has a controversial ending.

B. People have debate on J.K. Rowling’s book because of her innovation.

C. King is blessed with a gift for world building.

D. Tolkien has a great influence on J.K. Rowling.

【2】The passage is most probably taken from ________.

A. a news report B. a book review C. a history book D. a research paper

22、Singapore Swimming Lessons

My son was a water phobic but he recently won the swimming competition held by his school! Three years ago, my family and I were invited to a house warming party. My son, who didn't know how to swim, accidentally fell into the swimming pool while he was playing with the other kids around the pool side area. He looked at me and shouted for help continuously, scared to death. I felt so helpless as I wasn't able to swim as well. I decided to sign my son as well as myself up for private swimming lesson through Happy Fish Swim School. The instructor was patient and friendly and helped my son overcome his phobic of water.

23、   John was part of my childhood growing up in the 1970s and a link to sunny, fun-filled days spent on the beach at Bangor in Northern Ireland where we went for our summer holidays. To many, he was a mystery. Every afternoon John would wander to the end of the pier (码头) where he fed the seagulls and delighted in the sound of their excited cries as they flew around his head.

Often I asked my family questions regarding John. Eventually I gave up as no one could tell me anything about him. As I grew up, my visits to the beach became less frequent, and my memories of John buried in a child's imagination.

Last year memories came flooding back as I walked along the coastline, where I noticed a lady feeding the seagulls on the pier, and I decided to introduce myself. Then I came to know that the lady was John's daughter, and after John left this world she carried out the ritual, which had held such importance for her father.

In some strange way I felt we shared a bond, each needing to remember. In return, Lucy told me of John's life, his days in the British Navy during World War I and how he almost lost hope when his ship was attacked by a German U-boat in the North Sea and he found himself in a lifeboat with five others.

Close to death, he thought he heard the sound of wings. He put up his hands, only to catch a seagull that had landed on the side of the boat. The seagull saved the lives of the six men as it was used to catch fish, which kept them alive until they reach land. This period of John's life was one he never talked about. But the ritual he first performed as a young man remained a part of him until he died.

Now I visit Lucy as often as I can, just to chat or very often walk along the beach to the pier end. We enjoy the comfortable silence, each lost in special memories.

【1】Seeing John feeding the seagulls, the author might feel ______.

A.proud B.worried

C.curious D.guilty

【2】The underlined word 'ritual" in the third paragraph can be replaced by ______.

A.law B.tradition

C.interest D.procedure

【3】We can infer from the text that John ______.

A.once served in both World Wars B.was a man with a grateful heart

C.spent his childhood in Bangor D.joined the navy in the 1970s

【4】What does the author mainly tell us in the text?

A.Her thanks to a seagull that saved her life.

B.The story of how she made friends with a lady.

C.Her childhood spent on the beach at Bangor.

D.Her memories of a man who fed seagulls.

24、We all know there’s good cholesterol (胆固醇) and bad cholesterol. 【1】 A better understanding of them will give us health benefits.

Good fat is medically known as “brown fat”, typically found in the neck and shoulders of newborns. It makes up about 5 percent of an infant’s total body mass. 【2】 By age six, we have less than 5 percent of the brown fat we were born with. Researchers now believe that some people maintain brown fat deposits into adulthood. As a “good” kind, it is metabolically (新陈代谢地) efficient and actually burns excess energy to generate heat.

【3】 It is a way for your body to store excess energy that accumulates when you consume more calories than you use. It is widely distributed throughout the body. And it doesn’t use much energy, is hard to burn off, accumulates, and causes other health problems.

The fat we gain over time is almost all white fat. The increasing level of white fat is one of the major causes of shortened life spans and chronic diseases. Thus, increasing the level of brown fat makes sense.

Some studies suggest that taking a cold shower or an ice bath could activate brown fat to help your body burn more calories. Researchers have also found methods that may help people gain brown fat without the need for cold. 【4】 As brown fat is rich in iron, choosing iron supplements or food items rich in iron can keep your fat cells healthy. Nutrition is vital for your health, especially if you want to increase brown fat production.

Though it is helpful to increase brown fat, some scientists think they will learn how to keep stores of brown fat as large and active throughout adulthood as its stores are in infancy. 【5】.

A．You can build fat from the food you eat.

B．We lose most of our brown fat as we age.

C．It turns out there’s good and bad fat, too.

D．It’s wise to distinguish good fat from bad fat.

E．But white fat is considered to do the opposite.

F．These methods oppose taking in extra calories.

G．The goal is to maintain brown fat rather than recreate it.
