15．You love reading，but you've read all your books four times，and are tired of reading the same ones．You're planning to go to the library，but don't know what kind of books to get．With the right knowledge，it's easy to choose a good book!
Answer these questions first．What authors do you like？Research books by the authors you've enjoyed，and you can get more of the same type of books．What are your interests？Type your hobbies into your library catalog search．By doing this，you will find books that you might like．Is there a type of book you would like to try？If there is，search the book and read the summary．This will help you decide if the book is right for you．
Search your house next．
Often good books are quietly collecting dust in your own house．Maybe you forget about one，or someone who is living with you has a couple of good books．Also by searching your house，you can find some books that you can read，and they won't even cost you any money．
Then，ask someone to recommend a good book．You can ask your older brother or sister，your mom，your dad，your best friend，or even your English teacher．Local bookstores often have wonderful recommendations．And when they get to know you，it's even better!You should ask people who like the same type of books，so that you can get books that match your need．
Join a book club，please．Being a book club member is often a way to experience new books with other members．Joining a book club or setting up a book club helps you know who else likes the same books as you，and you can read books that others have read and discuss them．
Finally，read the first part of each book．Of course，if you have many books，this can be time-consuming．Reading the first part of a book can help you know what books and types of books that you like，and you won't have a hard time looking for books again．

分析 本文作者主要為我們介紹了幾個如何選擇一本好書的方法：首先要結(jié)合自己的興趣，然后才能找到你所需要的書；接下來就是搜搜你的房子，看有沒有你曾經(jīng)忘記在某個角落里的塵封的好書，這樣還可以省錢；然后要你的親朋好友給你推薦一本好書，從而容易找到你所需要的書；還有加入一個讀書俱樂部，這樣就可以和其它成員互相討論看過的書；最后讀每本書的第一部分，閱讀一本書的第一部分可以幫助你知道什么類型的書是你喜歡的．
解答 38、C 主旨大意題 根據(jù)第一段With the right knowledge，it's easy to choose a good book!及聯(lián)系下文可知本文主要介紹了選擇一本好書的幾種方法，即主旨大意為幫助我們選擇一本好書．故選C
39、B 語句理解題 根據(jù)對這句話的字面理解Often good books are quietly collecting dust in your own house指"通常好的書都在你自己的房子里靜靜地收集灰塵"，聯(lián)系后句Maybe you forget about one可知這是你可能都已經(jīng)忘記的書，所以推知此句的意思即為長時間都沒有碰觸的書．故選B
40、D 細(xì)節(jié)理解題 根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段Being a book club member is often a way to experience new books with other members．Joining a book club or setting up a book club helps you know who else likes the same books as you，and you can read books that others have read and discuss them．可知加入讀書俱樂部可以與其他成員一起體驗新書，故A對；還可以知道誰喜歡和你一樣的書，故B符合文章內(nèi)容；還可以閱讀和討論別人讀過的書，故C符合文章內(nèi)容；只有D幫助你結(jié)交越來越多的親密朋友文章中沒有提到．故選D
41、C 詞義猜測題 根據(jù)前句的條件狀語此句if you have many books表假設(shè)，如果你有很多書，推出看起來應(yīng)該是會花好多時間，所以作者才建議只讀書的第一部分就好了．故選C
點評 在做閱讀理解時，可遵循三部曲的原則，即：快速閱讀短文，通讀測試題，明確考察點；認(rèn)真逐題作答；復(fù)查校對答案．做完所有題目后，再讀一遍短文，逐一檢查所有答案是否有誤．如果有拿不定主意的答案，不要隨意更改．一定要從原文中找到依據(jù)，方可更正．
