Time spent in a bookshop can be most enjoyable, whether you are a book-lover or merely go there to buy a book as a present. You may even have entered the shop just to find shelter from a sudden shower. Whatever the reason, you can soon become totally unaware of your surroundings. The desire to pick up a book with an attractive dust jacket（包書紙, 書皮）is irresistible, although this method of selection ought not to be followed, as you might end up with a rather dull book. You soon become engrossed（全神貫注的）in some book or other, and usually it is only much later that you realize you have spent far too much time there and must dash off to keep some forgotten appointment—without buying a book, of course.

This opportunity to escape the realities of everyday life is, I think, the main attraction of a bookshop. There are not many places where it is possible to do this. A music shop is very much like a bookshop. You can wander round such places to your heart's content. If it is a good shop, no assistant will approach you with the inevitable greeting: “Can I help you, sir?” You needn't buy anything you don't want. In a bookshop an assistant should remain in the background until you have finished powsing. Then, and only then, are his services necessary. Of course, you may want to find out where a particular section is, but when he has led you there, the assistant should retire discreetly (謹慎地) and look as if he is not interested in selling a single book.

You have to be careful not to be attracted by the variety of books in a bookshop. It is very easy to enter the shop looking for a book on, say, ancient coins and to come out carrying a copy of the latest best-selling novel and perhaps a book about pass-rubbing (拓印品)—something which had only vaguely interested you up till then. This volume on the subject, however, happened to be so well illustrated and the part of the text you read proved so interesting that you just had to buy it. This sort of thing can be very dangerous. Apart from running up a huge account, you can waste a great deal of time wandering from section to section. Booksellers must be both long-suffering and indulgent（縱容地）.

6、You may spend too much time in a bookshop because ________.

A.the dust jackets are very attractive

B.you start reading one of the books

C.it is raining outside

D.you have to make sure you don't buy a dull book as a present

A.nobody takes any notice of you

B.the assistant greets you in a friendly way

C.you can stay there as long as you want

D.you feel that you are in a music shop

8、An assistant should help you _______.

A.as soon as you have entered a shop
