【河北省衡水中学2018届高三考前第二次仿真模拟】
A novel is a story transmitted from the novelist to the reader. It offers distraction and entertainment. But it can also be something more powerful—a way to learn about how to live. Just read at the right moment in your life, and a novel can change it.
The Novel Cure is a reminder of that power. It is regarded as a grand display of literary fiction and a celebration of the possibilities of the novel. To create this apothecary（药房）, the authors have searched through two thousand years of literature for novels that effectively promote happiness, health, and sanity（神志清醒）, written by brilliant minds who knew what it meant to be human and wrote their life lessons into their fiction.
11
The authors, Ella Berthoud and Susan Elderkin began giving novels to each other whenever one of them seemed in need of a push. In 2008 they set up a bibliotherapy service through a cultural enterprise, and since then have been prescribing books to customers all over the world.
Bibliotherapy does not discriminate between pains of the body and pains of the head (or heart). Aware that you are not brave enough? Pick up To Kill a Mockingbird for an injection of courage. Experiencing a sudden fear of death? Read One Thousand Years of Solitude for some understanding on the larger cycle of life. Whatever your condition is, the treatment is simple: a novel (or two), to be read regularly. Some treatments will lead to a complete cure. Others will offer comfort, showing that you are not the first to experience these emotions. The Novel Cure is also filled with useful lists recommending the best novels to read when you are stuck in traffic or can’t fall asleep, the most important novels to read throughout your life.
Brilliant in concepts, The Novel Cure belongs on everyone’s bookshelf and in every medicine cabinet. It will make even the most well-read fiction lover pick up a novel he’s never heard of, and see familiar ones with new eyes. Mostly.it will reaffirm literature’s ability to distract and transport, to resonate（共鸣）and reassure, to change the way we see the world and our place in it.
20. What does the underlined word “power” in paragraph 2 refer to?
A. The power of the novelist to transmit a story to the reader.
B. The power of the novel to distract and entertain the reader.
C. The power of the novel to create so many treatment for the reader.
D. The power of the novel to tell us how to live and change our lives.
21. According to the passage, what do you think is “Bibliotherapy”?
