Question

I was a bit of a bookworm as a child.For car journey,day trip or family holiday,many books were always packed to keep me busy.Since then,I've continued reading all kinds of books but I'll always love my childhood favorites.

The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-timer—Mark Haddon

This children's mystery novel is interesting,exciting,thought-provoking（发人深省的）,sad and happy all at the same time.The main character is a 15-year-old boy who has autism（自闭症）.The book gives you a window into his world,his thoughts,his hopes and his dreams.It's easy to read and both kids and adults love it.A must-read in my opinion.

Secret Seven—Enid Blyton

If you love adventures,this one is for you.The Secret Seven are a group of child detectives who make it their duty to solve crimes.They have many adventures along the way.It's a fun book that you won't want to stop reading. And in fact,there is more than.one book.There's a series of books about the Secret Seven's adventures so if you like the first one,you're in luck.

Matilda—Roald Dahl

It's now a film and show at the theatre,but we can't forget the original book.Matilda is about a loveable little girl who is very clever and,like me,loves to read.She goes to school and meets the very scary Miss Trunchbull who tortures（折磨）children,but thankfully makes friends with a kind.teacher.The book will have you crying one,moment and laughing the next.

The Lion,the Witch and the Wardrobe—C.S.Lewis

As a kid I read the book,watched the film and listened to the tape.I really couldn't get enough of the book.It's an exciting story set in a magical land called Narnia.When you're reading it,you'll feel like you're really there.You'll get caught up in the adventures of the four children and the characters they meet.I can't rate it highly enough.

【解析】这是一篇记叙文。主要讲述“我”是一个爱读书的人，阅读了许多有趣的书籍但是“我”仍然喜欢的小时候阅读的儿童书籍。文中介绍了四本不同主题却各具特色的书籍。

1.细节理解题。由“The Secret Seven are a group of child detectives who make it their duty to solve crimes.”提示可知，Secret Seven是一本关于少年侦探故事的书。故B正确。

2.细节理解题。由倒数第二句“It's easy to read and both kids and adults love it.”可知，这本书儿童和大人都爱读。故C正确。

3.推理判断题。Matilda不是以冒险为主题，A错误；两本书均未提到阶段适应，B错误；The Lion,the Witch and the Wardrobe 以虚幻世界为主，C错误；由“It's now a film and show at the theatre”和“As a kid I read the book,watched the film ”可知，两本书都被改编为电影，故D正确。
