The Children’s Book-Show Competition is a chance for young readers to be writers.

Reading, it seems, is coming back in fashion, if a survey by the famous National Literacy Trust (the NLT) is true. It shows that the percentage of children who admit enjoying reading has grown for the first time in the past 8 years.

So it’s a good time to launch a competition that includes a shed-load of new books for schools as prizes. The Children’s Book-show Competition, backed by The Independent, is taking to the roads again from the start of next term, with a nation-wide tour of 15 big cities, featuring a line-up of a dozen children’s writers and illustrators(插图画家)aiming to persuade pupils to follow their footsteps.

The competition, launched by the children’s writer and illustrator Jessica Souhami, has two categories: the under-nine’s and nine to 13-year-olds.

Children are asked to choose their favorite fairy or folk tale and set it in an extraordinary place.

Then they are to retell it with the aid of drawings and writings-whether it is set at sea, on a distant planet, in the future or in the past. The closing date for the competition is 30th November.

“Tell your tale in pictures and in words, ”say the organizers of the competition. “It can be in a picture book or comic-book format.”

The winner of each competition will receive a signed copy of a book by each of the 12 authors involved in this year’s tour, plus £150 worth of books for their school. The runners-up will receive a signed copy of Souhami’s new book.

1.What can we know about the Book-show Competition? _____

A. It will be held by the famous NLT.

B. It will be held in different cities.

C. It has never been organized before.

D. Children of all ages will join in it.

2.The underlined word “backed” in Paragraph 3 means_____.

A. started　　 　　 B. promoted

C. supported　　　　 D. reported

3.What will be offered as a prize to schools? _________

A. Pictures and comic books

B. Books worth £150 in all.

C. Books signed by 12 authors.

D. Jessica Souhami’s new books.

4.The author’s purpose of writing this passage is to ______.

A. encourage young readers to become writers.

B. persuade all children to join in the competition

C. promote children’s books by famous writers.

D. introduce the Children’s Book-Show Competition

高三英语单项填空简单题查看答案及解析

Driving to a friend’s house on a recent evening, I was attracted by the sight of the full moon rising just above my friend’s roof-tops. I stopped to watch it for a few moments, thinking about what a pity it was that most citizens, myself included, usually miss sights like this because we spend most of our lives indoors.

My friend had also seen it. He grew up living in a forest in Europe, and the moon meant a lot to him then. It had touched much of his life.

I know the feeling. Last December I took my seven-year-old daughter to the mountainous jungle of northern India with some friends. We stayed in a forest rest-house with no electricity or running hot water. Our group had campfires outside every night, and indoors when it was too cold outside. The moon grew to its fullest during our trip. Between me and the high mountains lay three or four valleys. Not a light shone in them and not a sound could be heard. It was one of the quietest places I have ever known, a bottomless well of silence. And above me was the full moon,which struck me deeply.

Today our lives are filled with glass, metal, plastic and fibre-glass. We have televisions, cellphones, papers, electricity, heaters and ovens and air-conditioners, cars, computers.

Struggling through traffic that evening at the end of a tiring day, most of which was spent in⁃doors, I thought that before long I would like to live in a small cottage. There I will grow vegetables and read books and walk in the mountains, and perhaps write, but not in anger. I may be come an old man there, and wear the bottoms of my trousers rolled and measure out my life in coffee spoons. But I will be able to walk outside on a cold silent night and touch the moon.

1. The best title for the passage would be ________.

A. The pleasures of modern life

B. Touched by the moon

C. A bottomless well of silence

D. Break away from modern life

2.What impressed the writer most in the mountainous jungle of northern India?

A. No modern equipment.

B. Complete silence.

C. The nice moonlight.

D. The high mountains.

3. Modern things (Paragragh 4) are mentioned mainly to ________.

A. show that the writer likes city life very much

B. tell us that people greatly benefit from modern life

C. explain that people have less chances to enjoy nature

D. show that we can also enjoy nature at home through them

B. show the love for the moonlight

C. advise modern people to learn to live

D. want to communicate longing for modern life
