single day and this year it falls on October 12.These are some of the biggest new titles to pick up.A Stroke of the Pen by Terry Pratchett,priced 20.It contains 20 short stories written in the seventies and eighties in the last century.This delightful collection is inventive and engaging,often with a twisty end.The comedic fantasies that shape this book make a fun read.A Haunting on the Hill by Elizabeth Hand,priced 16.99.Available now.It is a read attracting readers curiosity to the end and the end is beyond expectation.The short chapters,complex characters,and beautifully yet scarily written descriptions make the novel an irresistible page-turner.Divine Might by Natalie Haynes,priced 20.Available now.Youve likely heard their names-Hera,Demeter,The Furies-and you may think you know their stories.But Haynes manages to give these well-known Greek goddesses a new voice by telling their story from a different view.Secrets of the Forest by Alicia Klepeis,illustrated by Kristen Adam,priced 14.99.Available now.American childrens author Alicia Klepeis has over 170 works for young audiences to her name,all with an educational angle.Through these delightful bite-sized bedtime stories,readers are guided to learn about the real biology and behavior of the incredible creatures.These stories should be treasured and handed down through generations to come.21.What do A Stroke of the Pen and A Haunting on the Hill have in common?A.Both are realistic.B.Both are scary.C.Both are on sale.D.Both have a surprise end.22.Which book is more likely to attract parents?A.A Stroke of the Pen.B.A Haunting on the Hill.学科网(北京)股份有限公司C.Divine Might.D.Secrets of the Forest.23.Which of the following is true based on the passage?A.Elizabeth writes stories for children.B.Alicia is good at writing fairy tales.C.Divine Might tells old stories creatively.D.Every October 12th is the new book day.BIf youre Italian and Swedish,and Daddys Italian and Polish,my 7-year-old daughter asked,does that mean Im part Swedish,Polish and Italian?Well,not exactly.I tried to think on my feet.Clearly it was time to explain some complicated things.My daughter arrived by using a donated egg(卵子).I carried her to term,but she carries all her genes from my husband and the donor.Any similarities we share are a result of nurture rather than nature.I often experienced a sense of shame,as if I had cheated nature.I also feared that my daughter would feel disconnected or pull away from me once she knew everything.However,we didnt want the information to come from anyone but us.I had referred to many related researches and results showing such families have better outcomes when parents tell kids about their special arrival early on,ideally by the time theyre 7 years old.On the day when she asked the question,I bought a book You Began as a Wish by Kim Bergman,which talks about all the different ways kids come.After reading together,we talked a little longer about the different kinds of families we knew.I could see recognition in her warm brown eyes.Could I be French?I love the Eiffel Tower and croissant(羊角面包),she asked expectantly.I thought back to the information of the donor application.Actually,I think you are a little bit French.Yes!She pumped her fist in the air.I know this is only the very beginning of these conversations,and things may be more complicated for my family from now on.But we get to work through whatever complications arise together,without secrecy or shame.24.What does the underlined phrase think on my feet possibly mean?A.Lie easily.B.Respond carefully.C.Treat it casually.D.Run away quickly.学科网(北京)股份有限公司25.What does the writer describe in the third paragraph?A.Her misfortune.B.Her plan.C.Her upset.D.Her regret.26.How did the writer possibly get prepared to solve the.problem?A.Discussing openly.B.Reading widely.C.Waiting patiently.D.Thinking wisely.27.What kind of family does the writer have?A.Open and trustful.B.Happy and hardworking.C.Rich and caring.D.Brave and humorous.CSince the growth of online streaming services like Netflix,subtitling(加字幕)has become something of an art.Subtitles started out as an accessibility feature for deaf audiences,and to translate foreign language films into your own.Of course,its not just deaf audiences that subtitles help.The translated subtitles of foreign films are great for learning languages,letting you read and hear how its pronounced at the same time.Movie subtitles are written ahead of time,but subtitling for live TV has to be done in the moment as the person is speaking,so mistakes are likely to happen.But because subtitles can be everything,from monster squelches(扑哧声)to bombs exploding,its a great way to learn many things,such as new adjectives.Subtitler Karli Witkowska explained how her choice of adjective creates emotion for the audience.Karli belongs to a team of subtitlers who try to make their descriptions as close as possible to the sounds they hear.Karli bases her descriptions on the films type.The sound effects needed for a thriller like Strange Things-creaking(吱嘎)stairs and sudden screams-are very different from the sounds used in historical period dramas.This influences the adjective Karli chooses to describe a sound.For example,light-hearted and cheerful music might be described as jaunty-full of energy and confidence.Another time,her team found exactly the right expression gobsmacked silence.In this scene,the characters were about to gasp-take in a short,sudden,and quick breath of air without speech or sound in the scene,you are able to tell people that atmosphere.So when my colleague came up with that one,I definitely gave him a big thumb-up,she said.学科网(北京)股份有限公司In fact,the phrase gobsmacked silence is so good that it goes viral(走红)and is being used in all kinds of situations.28.What does the writer want to convey about subtitling in Paragraph 2?A.It helps solve learning problems.B.It helps people to stay concentrated.C.It can be important and challenging.D.It improves ability of understanding.29.Which emotion does gobsmacked silence possibly express?A.Sad.B.Hopeful.C.Disappointed.D.Surprised.30.What does Karli think of her teammates work?A.It needs improving.B.Its well done.C.It makes her speechless.D.Its very popular.31.Which of the following statement will Karli possibly agree with?A.Subtitling is difficult but fashionable.B.Subtitlers are often some strange persons.C.Subtitlers are those who create new words.D.Subtitling involves translating sounds accurately.DToy giant Lego has given up on

to find magic material to fix the firms sustainability challenges.We tested hundreds and hundreds of materials.Its almost not been possible to find a material like that,he said.A spokesperson for the
