changed my views of our President.A friend I was talking to agreed with me that it was，in his words，“a brilliantly(精彩地) written book”However，he then went on to talk about Mr. Obama in a way which suggested he had no idea of his background at all.I sensed that I was talking to a book liar.And it seems that my friend is not the only one.Approximately two thirds of people have lied about reading a book which they haven't.In the World Book Day's “Report on Guilty Secrets”，Dreams From My Father is at number 9.The report lists ten books，and various authors，which people have lied about reading，and as I'm not one to lie too often (I'd hate to be caught out)，I'll admit here and now that I haven't read the entire top ten.But I am pleased to say that，unlike 42 percent of people，I have read the book at number one，George Orwell's 1984.I think it's really brilliant.The World Book Day report also has some other interesting information in it.It says that many people lie about having read Jane Austen，Charles Dickens，Fyodor Dostoevsky (I haven't read him，but haven't lied about it either) and Herman Melville.Asked why they lied，the most common reason was to “impress” someone they were speaking to.This could be tricky if the conversation became more indepth!But when asked which authors they actually enjoy，people named JK.Rowling，John Grisham，Sophie Kinsella (ah，the big sellers，in other words)Fortytwo percent of people asked admitted they turned to the back of the book to read the end before finishing the story (I'll come clean：I do this and am astonished that 58 percent said they had never done so)【解题导语】作者通过跟朋友的读书交流，揭示了一种社会上人们读书的现象。1How did the author find his friend a book liar?ABy judging his manner of speaking.BBy looking into his background.CBy mentioning a famous name.DBy discussing the book itself.答案D推理判断题。根据文章第一段的最后两句“However, he then went on to talk abour Mr. Obama in a way which suggested he had no idea of his background at all. I sensed that I was talking to a book liar.”可以推断出通过讨论这本书的内容作者进而发现朋友在撒谎，故选D。其中，选项A在文中没有体现；选项B偷梁换柱，利用文中出现的his(Mr. Obama) background来迷惑考生；选项C看似在文中首段第二、三句有所体现，但它并不能很好地回答题干所提出的问题，答非所问，故排除。 2Which of the following is a “guilty secret” according to the World Book Day report?ACharles Dickens is very low on the topten list.B42% of people pretended to have read 1984.CThe author admitted having read 9 books.DDreams From My Father is hardly read.答案B细节理解题。根据文章第二段最后两句“But I am pleased to say that, unlike 42 percent of people, I have read the book at number one, George Orwell's 1984. I think it's really brilliant.”可知答案。选项A和D提到的细节在文中是有出现，但是选项的内容无法从文章中得出结论；选项C的信息作者在本文没有叙述。3By lying about reading，a person hopes to_.Acontrol the conversationBappear knowledgeableClearn about the bookDmake more friends答案B推理判断题。根据文章第四段第一句“Asked why they lied, the most common reason was to impress' someone they were speaking to.”可知答案为B项。4What is the author's attitude to 58% of readers?AFavorable. BUncaring.CDoubtful. DFriendly.答案C作者态度题。结合文章大意，以及文中最后出现的“.am astonished that 58 percent said they had never done so”可知，作者对58% of readers持怀疑态度，故C项(怀疑的)符合文意。选项B(不予关注的)，显然错误，作者若不予以关注就不会写出这篇文章。B体裁：说明文话题：场景介绍词数：249难度：建议用时：5分钟The National GalleryDescription：The National Gallery is the British national art museum built on the north side of Trafalgar Square in London.It houses a diverse collection of more than 2,300 examples of European art ranging from 13thcentury religious paintings to more modern ones by Renoir and Van Gogh.The older collections of the gallery are reached through the main entrance while the more modern works in the East Wing are most easily reached from Trafalgar Square by a ground floor entrance.Layout：The modern Sainsbury Wing on the western side of the building houses 13th to 15th century paintings，and artists include Duccio，Uccello，Van Eyck，Lippi，Mantegna，Botticelli and Memling.The main West Wing houses 16th century paintings，and artists include Leonardo da Vinci，Cranach，Michelangelo，Raphael，Bruegel，Bronzino，Titian and Veronese.The North Wing houses 17th century paintings，and artists include Caravaggio，Rubens，Poussin，Van Dyck，Velazquez，Claude and Vermeer.The East Wing houses 18th to early 20th century paintings，and artists include Canaletto，Goya，Turner，Constable，Renoir and Van Gogh.Opening Hours：The Gallery is open every day from 10 am to 6 pm(Fridays 10 am to 9 pm) and is free，but charges apply to some special exhibitions.Getting There：Nearest underground stations：Charing Cross (2 minute walk)，Leicester Square (3minute walk)，Embankment(7 minute walk)，and Piccadilly Circus (8minute walk)5In which century's collection can you see religious paintings?AThe 13th.

DCharing Cross.答案D细节理解题。根据文章最后一段，比较A项Piccadilly Circus(8minute walk)，B项Leicester Square (3minute walk)，C项Embankment (7minute walk)和D项Charing Cross (2minute walk)可知，到达National Gallery所需时间由长到短依次排序为A>C>B>D，故正确答案为D项。
