experience.
Settling dwn n a cmfrtable bench under an ak tree, I was fascinated by a nvel, lst in a wrld f fictinal characters. Suddenly, a strange sund interrupted me. Curiusly, I glanced in the directin f the nise, nly t discver a squirrel hurrying twards my bag. Immediately, I reached ut t prtect my bag frm the thief. But the squirrel ran away, grasping a chclate bar stlen frm my bag. Fueled by determinatin t get my snack back, I gave chase t the creature thrugh the park.
The squirrel displayed impressive flexibility, effrtlessly jumping nt trees and leaping frm branch t branch. Children and bystanders culdn’t help but laugh at the spectacle f a grwn adult chasing a squirrel. The chase cntinued, and as I ran after the squirrel, I became bth exhausted and awkward. The peacefulness f the park transfrmed int a lively playgrund, with laughter eching arund us. The squirrel, seemingly aware f its cmical effect, increased its speed and finally vanished int thin air.
As I made my way back t the bench, my heart still raced frm the pursuit. I culdn’t help but feel a sense f cmpaninship with the squirrel. It had reminded me t embrace the unexpected, t break free frm rutine, and mst imprtantly, t find jy in life’s simplest pleasures. Frm that day frward, whenever I visit the park, I always keep a chclate bar handy, just in case I cme acrss my friend.

One Saturday last Nvember, I stepped int my lcal library. I was abut t read a bk when I heard an elderly man speak t a lady. “This library will sn becme a café . Everyne is reading with electrnic devices,” he said. Hearing this, I wanted t shut, “I still read library bks!” But my wrds stuck in my thrat and I fund teenagers arund me were talking t friends r staring at their phnes.
Reading nline feels rbtic t me. It’s like I stare at a screen and click “next” fr the
fllwing page t appear until the very end f the e-bk, and at the end f all f that, I just think, “That’s it?” But when I read a printed bk, it’s like I’m hlding n t the characters. I can visualize the plt better, as I can picture the scenes f each mment in my head with mre accuracy and imaginatin.
Besides, sme nline bks miss cmpnents that are in the printed nvels. Fr instance, the physical cpy f a fantasy nvel I have read cntains a map, but the e-bk versin des nt. That is an injustice t e-bk users; after reading and interpreting the map, the stry made a lt mre sense fr me, in terms f the setting and plt.
And persnally, physically turning t the next page is better than clicking “next” . When reading nline, I smetimes wrry that I click “next” t quickly. It feels mre like a race; I want t finish it because the pages just keep making that “flipping” sund and I wnder hw lng the bk really is.
Sme printed bks have a special smell that makes the nvel feel special t me. It’s hard t describe but I’m sure I’m nt the nly ne that thinks s. I knw I cannt cnvince every teen t switch frm the digital bk t the printed ne, but maybe my writing abut the difference will at least get sme f them t think abut it.
28.Why will the library be replaced by a cafe?
A. Few peple head fr it. B. Few peple read its bks.
C. It lacks gd management. D. It hlds little attractin fr the yuth. 29.Why des the authr prefer printed bks accrding t paragraph 2?
A. They leave a vivid impressin.
B. They include additinal cntents.
C. They have a special pleasant smell.
D. They can imprve readers’ imaginatin.
30.What influence des reading nline have n the authr?
A. Making her tired f reading. B. Leading her t read aimlessly.
C. Stpping her digging int reading. D. Bringing mre injustice t her. 31.What is the authr’s purpse f writing this text?
A. T awaken teenagers’ interest in reading.
B. T publicize advantages f printed bks.
C. T reduce the impact f electrnic devices.
D. T encurage teens t change the reading medium.

Virtual reality is quickly becming the new technlgical frntier. Tech cmpanies everywhere seem t be racing t get their ft in the VR dr. Hwever, virtual reality has a set f challenges and hurdles that it must vercme in rder t wrk well. It shuld be nted that VR is heavily dependent n being very fast, very accurate and very gd-lking. If it isn’t, the viewer will feel mtin sick r discnnected frm the wrld that VR is trying t create.
Nw that we can actually build VR headsets that begin t meet these requirements, we are seeing a rising interest in VR. As it rises, s des the interest in creating new media t be experienced in using virtual reality. Jurnalism is a medium built n relevance. Jurnalists

shuld always be finding new ways t tell stries and deliver cntent. It is a gldmine fr strytelling. What better ways t tell a stry t smene than t put them right in the center f it?
Virtual reality is a pwerful tl fr jurnalists. The cnsumer isn’t just reading r watching smething play ut; they’re experiencing it. The immersive nature f VR allws fr peple t cnnect with the subject matter n a much deeper level than just reading abut it. The experience is emtinal, speaking mre t ur instinct (直 觉 ) than ur intellect. The pssibilities fr strytelling here are legin, and any stryteller wanting t d smething mre interesting than their peers shuld surely be cnsidering the sheer pwer f VR.
The questin f virtual reality, thugh, is nt hw pwerful it is. That is immediately apparent. The questin f VR is ne f viability and availability. Telling stries must be easy t d, and access t thse stries must be readily available. This is the biggest challenge that VR faces. If the tls t tell a stry with VR aren’t easy t pick up and learn, VR will fail. If VR technlgy isn’t bth tp-f-the-line and affrdable, VR will fail.
Accessibility was ne cncern fr Thmas Hallaq, assistant prfessr f jurnalism and mass cmmunicatins, wh said that current VR technlgy, is pretty exclusive (专用的) right nw. Despite that, he said he desn’t think the exclusivity f this technlgy will be a prblem in the lng run.
“I think it’s very prmising,” Hallaq said. “We’re seeing mre technlgy becme accessible, and mre peple having access t that technlgy. Just lk at smartphnes.” Like radi, TV and the Internet befre it, virtual reality will change the way we tell stries.
32. What des the underlined wrd mean in paragraph 1?
A. difficulty B. cmpetitin C. trend D. cnflict
33. Accrding t the passage, what is the biggest challenge VR is facing?
A. Hw pwerful and interesting it can be.
B. Whether peple will have easy access t it. C. Whether qualified VR headsets can be built.
D. What new ways peple will find t deliver cntent.
34. What’s the authr’s attitude twards the future f VR technlgy?
A. Pessimistic. B. Neutral. C. Optimistic. D. Cncerned.
35. What is the main idea f this passage?
A. Virtual Reality is facing challenges.
B. Virtual Reality is gaining ppularity.
C. Virtual Reality is seeing fast develpment.
D. Virtual Reality is reshaping the future f strytelling.
