One day a little boy, annoyed by his father's decision for him to become a grocer, decides that he will never grow up. Grocery is a dull job and staying a child is his protest against it. This strange little boy-man, never separated from a tin drum he is always banging, is our hero of the table. It covers three crucial decades of 20th century history. Little Oscar Matzerath will experience love, war and imprisonment in a story that paints an unforgettable picture of Central Europe between 1923 and 1954.
This is an overview of the story of The Tin Drum, the most famous work by the German Nobel-winning author Günter Grass, who passed away on April 13 at the age of 87. The Tin Drum also established Grass as one of the leading authors of Germany. It also set a high bar of comparison for all of his following works. Just as his best-known fiction is both the story of an individual and of an age, so it is that Grass' life cannot be understood without referring to the history of Germany. He was called "Germany's conscience", because he reminded Germans of a past during the Second World War (1933-1945) that many would have rather forgotten.
This sometimes made him unpopular. Many Germans did not agree in 1989 when he said that East Germany and West Germany should remain separate, as a united country would be too strong and threaten the world's peace. And Grass was called a hypocrite when he revealed in his memoir
Peeling the Onion (2006) that he had been a teenage member of the Waffen-SS, the Nazi (纳粹) Party's fighting force. The man who had blamed the actions of others had a less-than-perfect record himself.
Grass was a man of the pen and the page and also a man with a gift for speaking to the public.
His writing was noisy and annoying, but one had to listen to it, a little like the sound of the drum banged by his most famous literary creation.
1.In The Tin Drum, the hero ________.
A. decides he will never grow up to escape from the war
B. doesn't want to become a grocer as his father expects
C. refuses to be separated from the tin drum he is playing
D. has an unforgettable experience involving love and hatred
2.What does the underlined word "hypocrite" mean?
A. Someone who has justice on his side and pursues perfection.
B. Someone who enjoys blaming others for their own mistakes.
C. Someone who is unwilling to believe there is good in people.
D. Someone who pretends to be more virtuous than one really is.
3.It can be inferred from the article that ________.
A. Oscar Matzerath's stories were modeled on Grass's own childhood life
B. critics applauded Grass's argument for continued separation of Germany
C. Grass's life and works can be best understood from a historical perspective
D. no other writer in Germany could be Grass's equal in perfect personal record
4.What is the author's purpose in writing the article?
A. To analyze what has made The Tin Drum so popular in Germany.
B. To introduce the readers to Günter Grass and his most famous work.
C. To present the history of Germany through the pen and page of Grass.
D. To give some background information about Grass's early life as a writer.

Who could have imagined that a treadmill(跑步机)on wheels would one day become a thing? Lopifit is an unusual means of transportation that allows you to power an electric bicycle by walking on a treadmill.
Lopifit founder Bruin Bergmeester says it all started when he asked himself the question. "How can I use a treadmill outdoors?" He eventually came up with a design, to which he added an electric engine, and Lopifit was born. The treadmill bicycle is similar to a typical electric bicycle in that the motor only works when the rider puts power in as well. The Lopifit senses it when you walk on the treadmill and uses the motor to turn a drive chain at the back part of the treadmill, helping you reach a top speed of 17 miles per hour.
To use the Lopifit, simply turn on the battery and use your feet to slide the treadmill backwards and activate (激活) the motor. Then get on and enjoy the ride! If you need speed, just walk on the treadmill, and if you want to coast, all you have to do is stay still and admire the view. To stop, you have two hand brakes available.
The Lopifit first hit the streets in 2014 and, unsurprisingly, became an instant hit. That was actually quite challenging for the company, because it started get inquiries and calls for orders, but it was nowhere near ready for mass production. The unique treadmill bicycle became available this year, and Lopifit is struggling to keep up with demand, despite the high price tag of $ 2,115.
But despite having a very loyal fan-base of so-called Lopifitters, the creative means of transportation also has naysayers who simply consider the invention stupid and unnecessary. They basically believe that if you’re going to walk, you might as well do it the old-fashioned way. But the Lopifit does have the unique advantage of helping you walk really fast without breaking a sweat, or walking at cycling speed, if you will.
1.With the help of Lopifit, you can ________.
A. cycle to work by walking
B. offer power to any bicycle
C. create a treadmill on wheels
D. answer some hard questions
2.From the second paragraph, we can learn ________.
A. how Lopifit was created
B. where Lopifit can be used
C. who Lopifit is intended for
D. which design is suitable for Lopifit
3.What can be learned from the fourth paragraph?
A. Lopifit was cheap and available in 2014.
B. Lopifit always broke down on the streets.
C. It was hard for the company to design Lopifit.
D. The supply of Lopifit failed to meet the demand.
4.How do the public react to Lopifit?
A. Positively.
B. Variously.
C. Angrily.
D. Cautiously.
