阅读短文,根据短文内容回答问题。

    There are many benefits of reading books. Unfortunately, in this day and age, not a lot of people take the time to read them anymore. But that doesn't change the fact that you're missing out on a lot of wonderful benefits! Read on to learn the various benefits of reading books!

   It Feeds Your Mind.

    Obviously, reading books provides you with new knowledge. Whenever you read something, you learn new information that you otherwise would not have known.

    It can be a fact about history or a theory you did not know existed. If you want to learn new words in particular, reading books is a great way to enrich your vocabulary.

   It Keeps Your Brain In Shape.

    Reading also keeps your mind in good condition. Similar to solving puzzles, reading books allows your mind to practice its processing skills.

    Going without books for too long will turn your mind to mush (玉米面粥). I'm not kidding! Why do you think they call television the boob tube?

    It Develops Your Critical Thinking Skills.

    One of the primary benefits of reading books is its ability to develop your critical thinking skills. Reading mystery novels, for example, sharpens (使敏锐) your mind. Whenever you are faced with a similar problem in real life, your mind is now able to put its mystery-solving prowess to a test.

    It Makes You More Articulate.

    There's nothing quite like reading books to help you become a better conversationalist. Seeing how words are used (and how sentences are structured) with your own eyes helps you commit the information to memory better than by listening to a teacher discuss the points in class.

    It Is Easy To Get To.

    One of the great benefits of reading books is that the information in it can be read over and over again. When you're following a recipe, for example, reading a cookbook allows you the luxury(享受)of reviewing the processes and the ingredients whenever you need to.

    These are just some of the wonderful benefits of reading books. Why don't you drop by the bookstore or library and pick a book up? If you can't even go outside, you can download free e-books on line and read them on your computer.

Fudan University: free courses for high school students

Is Fudan your ideal university? Now your dream may come true in a different way. Most recently, Fudan University has started a new programme offering free courses and they are now 1 to first-year senior high school students. Students from other grades do not have the chance to participate now. The programme allows students to take weekend courses on its campus in 10 different subjects. They cover many 2 , including Maths, science, Chinese language and literature (文学). 

Besides, students will share the university's 3 like its libraries and on-campus activities during their courses. They will be able to earn credits (学分) from the programme if they are admitted into Fudan University in the future. 

The new programme aims to further bridge the gap between higher education and compulsory education (义务教育). It may 4 develop high school students' all-around abilities and help them to discover what they are really interested in, the university says. 

To high school students, the chance to experience college-level work is so precious that it enables them to decide which job they should 5 in the future. 

The programme has attracted a lot of students and produced a good social response since 2014. Many students say they have gained a lot from the learning 6 and the experience will certainly encourage them to dream of hope.

Fudan is calling! Please follow Fudan's WeChat account as soon as possible to know about further details and requirements.

 C: Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words:

Where has the Time gone?is the hottest song that has moved thousands of Chinese. Chinese parents give their children endless love and ask nothing in return. However, sometimes, daughters and sons are too busy growing up and forget that their parents are getting older and older. What should we do? Let's have a look at a l{#blank#}1{#/blank#} of a father's. 

Dear son,

One day if you see me old and I am not myself, have patience and try to understand me. If I get dirty when eating…, if I cannot dress…, have patience. Remember the hours I spent t{#blank#}2{#/blank#} it to you. 

If, when I speak to you, I say the same things one thousand and one times, do not stop me and l{#blank#}3{#/blank#} to me. When you were small, I had to read to you one thousand and one times the same story until you get to sleep. 

When I do not want to have a shower, neither shame(羞辱) me nor scold(责备) me. Remember when I had to chase you with a thousand excuses I invented, in order that you wanted to bath. 

When you see me meet something n{#blank#}4{#/blank#}, give me the necessary time and don't laugh at me. I taught you how to do so many things… to eat well, to dress well… to face life. 

If I do not want to eat, do not force me. I know well when I need to and when not. When my legs do not allow me to walk, give me your h{#blank#}5{#/blank#} the same way I did when you gave your first steps. 

When sometimes I lose the memory during our conversation, let me have the necessary time to remember. And if I cannot do it, do not become nervous b{#blank#}6{#/blank#} the most important thing is not my conversation but to be with you and to have you listen to me. 

Yours, 

Father
