I grew up in a house where the TV was seldom turned on and with one wall in my bedroom entirely lined with bookshelves; most of my childhood was spent on books I could get hold of. In fact, I grew up thinking of reading as natural as breathing and books unbelievably powerful in shaping perspectives by creating worlds we could step into, take part in and live in.
With this unshakable belief, I, at fourteen, decided to become a writer. Here too, reading became useful. Every writer starts off knowing that he has something to say, but being unable to find the right ways to say it. He has to find his own voice by reading widely and discovering which parts of the writers he agrees or disagrees with, or agrees with so strongly that it reshapes his own world. He cannot write without loving to read, because only through reading other people’s writing can one discover what works, what doesn’t and, in the end, together with lots of practice, what voice he has.
Now I am in college, and have come to realize how important it is to read fiction. As a law student, my reading is in fact limited to subject matter — the volume of what I have to read for classes every week means there is little time to read anything else. Such reading made it all the clearer to me that I live in a very small part in this great place called life. Reading fiction reminds me that there is life beyond my own. It allows me to travel across the high seas and along the Silk Road, all from the comfort of my own armchair, to experience, though secondhand, exciting experiences that I wouldn’t necessarily be able to have in my lifetime.
Questions 33 to 35 are based on the passage you have just heard.

34. What effect does reading fiction have on the speaker?
35. Which can be the best title for this passage?
选项
A、Why do I read?
B、How do I read?
C、What do I read?
D、When do I read?
答案
A
解析
由选项是不同的疑问词引导的句子可知,本题可能考查短文的题目,考查短文的内容是关于阅读的原因、方式、内容还是时间的。短文开头提到,阅读是说话者小时候生活的一部分,它形成了自己看世界的观点,接着提及自己的梦想是成为一名作家而阅读对成为一个作家而言至关重要,最后提到自己上大学时靠阅读来扩展自己的视野,即短文主要说明了自己喜欢阅读的原因,故答案为[A]。
