Unit 3 A healthy life
阅读下面短文,掌握其大意,然后从1~15各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
“Two books per visit per week,”said the unsmiling librarian as she handed a library card.Neither the limits nor her attitude __1__ me,a 9-year-old Jewish girl growing up in Berlin in the 1950s.I needed those visits.The books were filled with stories in which,however __2__ things seemed,everything __3__ well in the end,__4__ justice,bravery,and wisdom—a striking contrast to my everyday experiences.
Thirty years later,I,a recent immigrant to the US with a daughter aged 13,stood in front of another librarian.This librarian was __5__.
“What did she say?”I asked my daughter,who already knew a little English and often __6__ as my interpreter.
“She said ‘Can I help you?’”
“Ask if they have any books in German,”I requested.
“No,they don’t.”translated my daughter.
While hunting for a job,I was told that the library needed people to __7__ books.The interview was short—the job didn’t require much English,just a __8__ of the alphabet.I started the next day.Every day,I handled hundreds of books whose meaning was __9__ from me,mentally dividing them by size and color.One day,while shelving,I found English for Beginners and began studying it on my own.Step by step English letters started forming words I could __10__,words combined into phrases,and—oh,__11__!—I was reading.It was a slow process,supported by dictionaries and __12__ by tears,but it was progress.Afterwards I got promoted to the front desk—__13__ books in and out and answering simple questions.
Every day I receive dozens of people.Sometimes I spot new immigrants.They come from all over the world,so they look different,but the hesitant expression on their faces and their __14__ manners are similar.My heart goes out to them,for they are people like me.I fully understand the __15__ roads on which they have stepped.“They’ve come to the right place,”I think to myself.Then I smile and say—just the way a librarian said to me a long time ago—“Can I help you?”
