5、e gras - it tastes like 10,000 ducks roasted in butter then reduced to a velvet pudding.

10、ew doors they tried 3 led only into spare bedrooms, as everyone had expected that they would; but soon they came to a very long room full of pictures; and after that was a room all hung with green, with a harp in one corner; and then a kind of little upstairs hall and a door that led out on to a bal
11、cony. And shortly after that they looked into a room that was quite empty except for one big wardrobe, the sort that has a looking-glass in the door. “Nothing there!” Everybody rushed out but Lucy stayed because she thought it would be worthwhile trying the door of the wardrobe, even though she felt
12、 almost sure that it would be locked. To her surprise, it opened quite easily, and two mothballs dropped out. Looking into the inside, she saw several coats hanging up-mostly long fur coats. There was nothing Lucy liked so much as the smell and feel of fur. She immediately stepped into the wardrobe
13、and got in among the coats and rubbed her face against them, leaving the door open, of course, because she knew that it is very foolish to shut oneself into any wardrobe. She took a step further in-then two or three steps, always expecting to feel woodwork against the tips of her fingers. But she co
14、uld not feel it. “This must be a simply vast wardrobe!” thought Lucy, going still further in. Then she noticed that there was something crunching under her feet. “Is that more mothball?” she thought, stooping down to feel it with her hand. But instead of feeling the hard, smooth wood, she felt somet
15、hing soft and powdery and extremely cold. “This is very queer,” she said, and went on a step or two further. .

19、martphone addiction, Short Edition, a French publisher of short-form literature, has set up more than 30 story dispensers（分 发机） in the USAin the past years to deliver fiction at the push of a button at restaurants, universities and government offices. Francis Ford Coppola, the film director and wine
20、maker, liked the idea so much that he invested in the company and placed a dispenser at his Cafe Zoetrope in San Francisco. Last month, public libraries in some other cities announced they would be setting them up, too. There is one on the campus at Penn State. A few can be found in downtown West Pa
21、lm Beach, Fla. And Short Edition plans to announce more, including at the LosAngeles InternationalAirport. “Everything old is new again,” said Andrew Nurkin, director of the Free Library of Philadelphia, which is one of the libraries that set up the dispensers. “We want people to be easily exposed t

27、 C. Short Edition Is Getting Popular D. Taste of Literature, at the Push of a Button D Do you think youre smarter than your parents and grandparents? According to James Flynn, a professor at a New Zealand university, you are! Over the course of the last century, people who have taken IQ tests have g
28、otten increasingly better scores-on average, three points better for every decade that has passed. This improvement is known as “the Flynn effect”, and scientists want to know what is behind it. IQ tests and other similar tests are designed to measure general intelligence rather than knowledge. Flyn
29、n knew that intelligence is partly inherited from our parents and partly the result of our environment and experiences, but the improvement in test scores was happening too quickly to be explained by heredity. So what was happening in the 20thcentury that was helping people achieve higher scores on
30、intelligence tests? Scientists have proposed several explanations for the Flynn effect. Some suggest that the improved test scores simply reflect an increased exposure to tests in general. 6 Because we take so many tests, we learn test-taking techniques that help us perform better on any test. Other
31、s have pointed to better nutrition since it results in babies being born larger, healthier, and with more brain development than in the past. Another possible explanation is a change in educational styles, with teachers encouraging children to learn by discovering things for themselves rather than j
32、ust memorizing information. This could prepare people to do the kind of problem solving that intelligence tests require. Flynn limited the possible explanations when he looked carefully at the test data and discovered that the improvement in scores was only on certain parts of the IQ test. Test-take
33、rs didnt do better on the arithmetic or vocabulary sections of the test; they did better on sections that required a special kind of reasoning and problem solving. For example, one part of the test shows a set of abstract shapes, and test-takers must look for patterns and connections between them an
34、d decide which shape should be added to the set. According to Flynn, this visual intelligence improves as the amount of technology in our lives increases. Every time you play a computer game or figure out how to program a new cell phone, you are exercising exactly the kind of thinking and problem so
