David walked down the street. All he wanted to do was to play basketball with Jim. But his mother told him to return his sister's books to the library on his way to Jim's house.
In his eyes, books and summertime just don't go together. He thought he had read a lot during the school year. And he had never set foot inside a public library. Today he'd just drop the books off in the outside return box, but it was locked. He had to go inside to return them.
David walked inside the building a few minutes before closing time. He put the books into the return box. After a quick drink of water and a short stop in the toilet, he'd be on his way to meet Jim. He walked out of the toilet. The library lights were turned off. He was locked---in a library.
David tried to use the telephone, but he couldn't find one. As the sun began to set, he searched for a light and found a little one on the desk. He used a pencil to write a note on a big piece of paper. It read, "I'm locked inside. Please call for help. "He put it on the front door. Surely, someone passing by would see it. He then turned his attention to the library itself.
He was surprised to discover that this place was not so bad. Rows and rows of books! When he saw a book about Michael Jordan on the desk, he picked it up. He opened the book and began to read.
He felt that being locked in the library didn't seem to be such a terrible thing.
1.What did David's mother want him to do?
A.Play basketball with Jim. B.Take a walk in the street.
C.Read books in the library. D.Return his sister's books.
2.David thought he had read a lot during________.

You are walking down the street. Suddenly it starts to rain and you don’t have an umbrella. What do you do? Run or walk?
Most people would choose to run because it will get you out of the rain faster. But if you run, you also run into more raindrops. So what should you do?
Franco Bocci, a teacher at the University of Brescia in Italy, found that you should consider the wind direction and your body shape when you try to decide to move slowly or quickly in rain, according to the BBC.
When there is no wind and the rain is landing directly on you, Bocci suggests that you should run as fast as possible.
But if the wind comes from behind and blows the rain onto your back, the best thing to do is walking at the same speed as the wind. This way, both your front and back will stay mostly dry.
When the wind blows from the side, you'll have to think about one more thing—your body shape. Thinner people are hit by fewer raindrops. So a fatter person should run, while a thinner person should still try to match their speed to the wind.
“In general (大体来说),the best thing is to run, as fast as you can—not always, but in general, Bocci told BBC News. “If you’re really thin, it’s more probable that there will be an optimal speed. Otherwise (否则),it is better to run fast. ”
Now you know what to do next time the rain catches you in the middle of the street. But the best way to stay dry is still to carry an umbrella.
1.According to Bocci, when it rains and there is no wind, what should you do?
A.Walk slowly. B.Run as fast as you can.
C.Wait until the rain stops. D.Walk at the same speed as the rain.
2.Walking at the same speed when the wind comes from behind will .
A.help you walk easily in the rain B.keep any rain falling on you
C.stop you from falling over D.keep your body mostly dry
3.If the wind comes from the side, a thin person should consider________.
A.how fast he can run B.how long the rain will last
C.what the speed of the wind is D.what clothes he is wearing
4.The underlined word “optimal” probably means________.
A.合适的 B.极限的 C.缓慢的 D.难以超越的
