19、laint,” she said. Modeling her idea on a car thermostat(恒温器), Lindy used her kids magnetic(磁的)drawing board to design a device that diverts the cold water back down the hot water pipe. “The first aim when I started designing was to keep it really small and simple without having to use power. I wante

20、d to keep it as something that everyone could use,” said Lindy.She got a patent for her design and took it to some engineers to have it tested out. At first, even though the engineers were amazed that she wasnt an engineer, she said she sometimes found it hard to be taken seriously. “My age was a re

22、 that to the dollar savings on tank water that you have to buy, it can be a saving of $600 per year,” said Lindy.Armed with positive feedback from engineers and people using rainwater tanks, her design proved a great success. Soon she found a manufacturer early this year, and completed a state gover

27、sD. Lindy had a lot of experience in the plumbing and manufacturing industriesDAs we grow old, we realize that we have so little time to read and there are so many great books that weve yet to get around to. Yet re-readers are everywhere around us. For certain fans, re-reading The Lord of the Rings

28、is a conventional practice annually. One friend told me that Jane Austens Emma can still surprise him, despite his having read it over 50 times.New sudden clear understandings can be gained from the process of re-reading.

29、ss George Eliots Middle march at 17. Since then, she has read it again every five years. With each re-reading, it has opened up further. Mead evidenced the large number of ways in which really good books not only stand the test of repeat reads, but also offer fresh gifts each time we crack their spi

30、nes. These kinds of books grow with us.Scientists have also recognized the mental health benefits of re-reading. As researcher Cristel Russell of the American University explained, returning to a book “brings new or renewed appreciation of both the great book and its readers.”Its true that we often

31、find former selves on the pages of old books (if were fond of making notes on the pages). These texts can carry us back to a time and place, and remind us of the kind of person that we were then.A book is a joint project between writers and readers, and we must pour so much of ourselves into reading

32、 that our own life story can become connected with the story in the book.Perhaps whats really strange is that we dont re-read more often. After all, we watch our favourite films again and we wouldnt think of listening to an album only once. We treasure messy old paintings as objects, yet of all art

33、forms, literature alone is a largely one-time delight. A book, of course, takes up more time, but as Mead confirms, the rewards make it adequately worthwhile.12.

Recall them.D. Re-read them. 14. What can be learned from the passage?A. Reading benefits people both me

35、ntally and physically.B. Readers mainly focus on feelings on their first reading.C. We know ourselves better through re-reading experience.D. Writers inspire the same imaginations as film directors do.15. What is the writers purpose of the passage?A. To bring awareness to the significance of rereadi
