5．  Next Thursday is the World Book Day-a celebration of all things wonderful about books for all ages，with author events，school fancy-dress parades and a￡1book token（優(yōu)惠券） given to all schoolchildren under 18．
Sometimes，reading a modern novel can be tough （Booker Prize-winner The Luminaries ran t0 832pages!），especially if you lack confidence in your literacy skills．In fact，one in six people in the UK never pick up a book because they've experienced difficulties or are out of the habit of reading for pleasure．
    
But the Galaxy Quick Reads series are designed to introduce reluctant readers to bestselling short funny novels，which bring the joy of reading without demanding hours of concentrated time．They cover a range of subjects，from romance to comedy．
You can read Jojo Moyes's Paris For One，a romantic adventure in which 26-year-old Nell books a weekend away to Paris with her lazy，neglectful boyfriend．When he fails to turn up，she is alone in the city． That is，until she meets Fabien，who shows her the charms of the
French capital-in more ways than one．
     
Meanwhile，Adele Geras's moving story Out InThe Dark was set in World War I，in which young Rob came back from the battlefields．Determined to find the officer's widow to return the photo of her and their daughter that the captain kept with him，he traveled several thousand miles but never gave up．

Dead Man Talking is a fantastic tale of Pat，who'had a terrible fight with his best friend，Joe，ten years ago-but now hears that Joe is dead，and he must attend his funeral．But Joe is not going quietly that good night-he's lying in his coffin being very chatty indeed．

21．What will happen on the World Book Day according to the poster？B
A．Schoolchildren will be given fine clothes as gifts．
B．The authors of books will attend some events．
C．Experts will encourage people to write their novels．
D．There's a range of books that are priced at just￡l．
22．If you are interested in a horror story，you may chooseC．
A．Galaxy Quick Reads           
B．Paris For One
C．Dead Man Talking             
D．Out In The Dark
23．The passage is mainly aboutA．
A．recommendation of good books to readers
B．the history of the World Book Day 2015
C．a(chǎn)dvice on how to get cheap books
D．a(chǎn) plan to develop the habit of reading among adults．

"My son is always on the phone，sleepinr g，out with his friends，or in his room．He never has time to talk to
me．"The words above show the deep sadness and loneliness of her as well as other old parents．
Nowadays，young men look so busy in modern society that they will never feel free to live or talk with their
parents，even on some festival days．However，to the parents，what they really hope for is that their children can
come to see them just for a little time to give them a frequent telephone call．
The older they get，the more our old parents will feel．However busy we may be，wwe should try our best to
spend more time talking with them and accompanying them．It isnot just because they once gave us so much
selfless love，but it's our duty to look after them well．．
