  Returning to a book you’ve read many times can feel like drinks with an old friend.There’s a welcome familiarity—but also sometimes a slight suspicion that time has changed you both, and thus the relationship.But books don’t change, people do.And that’s what makes the act of rereading so rich and transformative.
The beauty of rereading lies in the idea that our bond with the work is based on our present mental register.It’s true, the older I get, the more I feel time has wings.But with reading, it’s all about the present.It’s about the now and what one contributes to the now, because reading is a give and take between author and reader.Each has to pull their own weight.
There are three books I reread annually.The first, which I take to reading every spring, is Ernest Hemingway’s A Moveable Feast.Published in 1964, it’s his classic memoir of 1920s Paris.The language is almost intoxicating (令人陶醉的),an aging writer looking back on an ambitious yet simpler time.Another is Annie Dillard’s Holy the Firm, her poetic 1975 ramble (随笔) about everything and nothing.The third book is Julio Cortázar’s Save Twilight: Selected Poems, because poetry.And because Cortázar.
While I tend to buy a lot of books, these three were given to me as gifts, which might add to the meaning I attach to them.But I imagine that, while money is indeed wonderful and necessary, rereading an author’s work is the highest currency a reader can pay them.The best books are the ones that open further as time passes.But remember,it’s you that has to grow and read and reread in order to better understand your friends.

Ⅰ.阅读理解
1.D 推理判断题。根据第二段前两句可知,作者认为重读的美妙之处在于我们与作品的联系基于我们目前的精神状态,作者年龄越大,就越觉得时光如飞。由此可推知,重读以前读过的书能让你加深对阅读内容的理解。随着年龄增长,你可能阅历更丰富,你对书中内容的理解也逐步加深。因此答案为D。
2.B 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Published in 1964, it’s his classic memoir of 1920s Paris...an aging writer looking back on an ambitious yet simpler time.”可知,A Moveable Feast 讲述年迈的海明威回忆青年时代在巴黎度过的日子,因此本题答案为B。
3.B 词义猜测题。根据最后一段的第二句可知,作者认为,虽然金钱确实是美妙而必要的,但重读作家的著作是读者对该作家的最高回报,因此画线词在此处指回报。
4.A 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Another is Annie Dillard’s Holy the Firm,her poetic 1975 ramble about everything and nothing.The third book is Julio Cortázar’s Save Twilight:Selected Poems, because poetry.”可以推断作者喜爱诗歌。
