Like many lovers of books, Mary and her husband, Richard Goldman, seldom walked past a bookstore without stopping to look inside. They often
高三英语 第6页 (共12页 )
talked of opening their own store one day.
When Mary was hospitalized with heart trouble in 1989, they decided it was time to get serious. Richard, who worked for a business company, was eager to work for himself, and Mary needed to slow down from her demanding job.
They started by talking to bookstore owners and researching the industry. “We knew it had to be a specialty store because we couldn’t match the big chains dollar for dollar,” says Mary. One figure caught her attention: She’d read somewhere that roughly 20 percent of books sold were mysteries (推理小说), and many buyers spent more $300 a year on books. She and Richard were themselves mystery readers.
On Halloween 1992, they opened the Mystery Lovers Bookshop and Café near their home. With three children in college, the couple could not spend all the family’s money to start a shop. To cover the $100,000 cost, they drew some of their savings, borrowed from relatives and from an bank.
The store merely broke even in its first year, with only $120,000 in sales. But Mary was always coming up with new ways to attract customers. The shop had a coffee bar and it offered gifts to mystery lovers and served dinners for book clubs that met in the store. She also invited dozens of writers to discuss their stories.
Today Mystery Lovers makes sales of about $420,000 a year. After paying taxes, business costs and the six part-time sales clerks, Richard and Mary together earn about $34,000.
“The job you love may not go hand in hand with a million-dollar income,” says Richard. “This has always been about an enjoyable life for ourselves, not about making a lot of money.”
64. When Mary was in hospital, the couple realized that ____.
A. they had to put their plan into practice
B. health was more important than wealth
C. heart trouble was a serious illness
D. they both needed to stop working
65. After Mary got well from her illness they began _____.
A. to study industrial management
B. to buy and read more mystery books
C. to do market research on book business
D. to work harder to save money for the bookstore

Please do not buy any Parrot with unknown origin. Facing a pity parrot with bad living condition (or maybe even sick), a kindhearted person may have to deal with a big dilemma. Should I buy the bird, take it to the vet. And then leasrreze the bird? Or keep the bird at home? The person may decide to buy the bird. This gesture may save that particular parrot but at the same time encourage the poachers to catch more, naturally killing many more.
Members of the public are encouraged to provide information on illegal import, export, selling and possession of endangered species to ACFD（香港渔农自然护理署）. Person who provides true information leading to successful seizure(没收) of endangered species will be rewarded with cash. Please call the 24-hour report hotline 2150-6978.
Not only in Hong Kong, buying a wild-caught Parrot in mainland China is also unacceptable. Hope everyone will become the ambassador of wild Parrots. Let us catch the poachers, not parrots. Please cherish our natural environment. There is only one planet called the earth. Let us work together to keep the nature’s biodiversity(生物多样性).

Chinese culture researchers will use modern computer and video technologies to set up a national audio and video database(数据库)for Chinese traditional operas. The database was made by the Chinese Academy of Arts, together with provincial-level art research institutes across the country. They hope to protect the nation’s traditional operas, according to Wang Wenzhang, president of the academy.
The influence of foreign cultures in China has caused great challenges for the survival(生存) of Chinese traditional operas. There were 367 types of traditional operas in China at the end of 1950’s, but the number has dropped to 267 in 2004.
“If we do not take practical measures to protect the traditional operas that are still alive, some of them will disappear very soon,” said Liu Wenfeng, deputy(副职)director of the research institute of traditional Chinese operas at the academy. Liu, who was in charge of the project, said the academy was planning to spend one and a half years in setting up the database.
The academy has so far collected more than 40,000 records of traditional operas, 15,000 hours of audio recordings and 2,000 hours of video recordings of Chinese traditional operas. Such a collection will be very helpful for setting up the database, according to Liu, “However, what the academy possesses includes only those materials related to major traditional operas, such as Peking Opera and Kunqu,” said Liu, adding that the traditional operas popular among small groups of people were not included. “That is why we are asking the provincial-level art research institutes to take part in the project so that more local operas could be found and included in the database,” said Liu.
“Thanks to modern computer technology, these materials will be finally turned into digital products and put on the Internet,” he said. Once the database is completed, all of the materials will be provided for Internet users at home and abroad. “Such a practice will be very effective in promoting(促进) exchanges between Chinese and overseas researchers,” Liu added.

Dear editor,
I’m writing to tell you about the discussion we’ve had about the effect of Internet bars on our life. Nearly one third of the students think Internet bars can help enrich our life after school. With the places provided to get onto the Internet, communication becomes more convenient. What’s more, students can search for useful information there when doing research work on a certain subject. On the other hand, over two thirds of the students disagree , because many students waste a lot of time playing games or chatting on line. Also, due to poor management and control, plenty of unhealthy information , which has a plenty bad effect on young people, can be easily got in the bars. Besides, none of them offer free service, which greatly adds to the economic burden of the students and their parents.
