Fikrys ordinary-yet-extraordinary life, the author Gabielle Zevin has thrown every clichs(老生常談) into

17、 the mix. The hero, AJ. Fikry, lost his beloved wife Nic in a road accident. The sales of his bookstore have been decreasing. The enthusiastic new sales representative Amelia wont stop annoying him with new books. His rare and very valuable first edition has gone missing. But the unexpected arrival

18、of Maya left in his care brings about a series of events with love and hope to his life.There are few real surprises in the plot and attentive readers will be able to tell where the story is headed. But that is not the point; the clichs and the predictable plot take nothing away from Zevins work The

19、 Storied Life of AJ. Fikry because its how she tells the story that first charms the readers, then holds their attention, making them read the whole book in a single sitting and finally give the book a long hug when they are finished. This book is a love letter to the joys of reading.Each chapter be

20、gins with the title of a short story or a book and a note from AJ. Fikry describing what he likes about it, essentially introducing each character by what they read. The characters are so realistic that its hard not to fall in love with all of them: Maya, “the fantastic book-worm,” Amelia, “the gian

21、tess” with questionable taste in fashion, Lambiase, the adorable police chief, and AJ. Fikry, the reluctant hero who hates electronic reading devices that will “send centuries of a lively culture into what will surely be a rapid decline.”The passage of time, race issues, and the bureaucratic argumen

22、t of childrens services are all put aside in the telling of this story, not because theres anything to hide or because reality is not allowed to interfere, but because the author chooses to focus on the important stuff. For example, it focuses on Lambiase who organizes a reading club for policemen a

23、t the book store. His original intention is to help promote business, but over the years he becomes a genuine book-lover, one who tends to always have simple advice for his cynical(憤世嫉俗的) friend, AJ. Fikry. “Bad timing,” Lambiase claims, “Ive been a police officer for twenty years now and Ill tell y

24、ou pretty much every bad thing in life is a result of bad timing, and every good thing is the result of good timing.”More than anything else, this novel is not only about the selling of them or the reading of them, but how books and stories become part of our lives, how we find ourselves within what

25、 we read and how we carry books with us. It is also about the power of unexpected happiness and always believing that something wonderful is just around the corner. The Late Bloomer is the book within a book which brings together AJ. Fikry and Amelia. It reminds them that life doesnt follow a set sc

26、ript, things happen when they are meant to happen, and there is no such thing as “too late” for anything. Life is the big picture. Always look at the big picture. Enjoy it. Dont get too concentrated on the details, because it will all be over before you know it. In the long run nobody, not even you,

27、 will remember the ordinary details because they are, in the end, quite irrelevant.AJ. Fikrys final words of wisdom to teen-aged Maya convey the same feelings in literary terms: “We are not quite novels. We are not quite short stories. In the end, we are collected works. We have read enough to know

28、there are no collections where each story is perfect. Some of us hit. Some miss.”1、The authors attitude towards Zevins book is _.Asupportive BcriticalCobjective Dindifferent2、How many characters of the novel are mentioned in the passage?AFour. BFive.CSix. DSeven.3、The police chief organizing a readi

32、 can make drinkable water from dry air using nothing but sunlight. With this device, “you can harvest a glass of water in an hour,” says Omar Yaghi, a chemist at the University of California, Berkeley. “Thats about how much water a person needs a day to survive in the desert.”Although the current de

33、vice is just a prototype (原型), the technology could be adopted to supply fresh water to the most remote regions of the globe, such as the Middle East and North Africa.Similar devices in previous attempts worked only below 50 percent relative humidity (濕度). They can extract water from the air even at

34、 low relative humidity. However, they either collect water too slowly or require lots of energy.However, the new device, using a new special material, pulls water from air with as low as 20 percent relative humidity and successfully avoids both problems. Developed by MIT engineers from an existing m

35、aterial, the special material, called MOF-801, creates a network of very small pores (氣孔) that can trap water vapor. At room temperature, water vapor collects in the pores. As temperatures rise, the water escapes into the box designed for water collection.When the device is left in the shade, the la

36、yer of MOF-801 collects water vapor from the air. When moved into direct sunlight, the layer heats up and the water vapor escapes into a box, which cools the vapor, making it into drinkable water. This entire process takes around two hours.Laboratory tests of the device harvested 2.8 liters of water

37、 per day. Therefore, the device could be used us a personal water source in dry regions, Yaghi says, or the techonology could be used to produce enough water for a whole community.1、The new device is invented to according to Yaghi.Aprovide solar enegy Bmake the desert hospitableCmake water from air
