We are getting requests from all over the world-Australia,the US,Canada,Russia,Grace,Italy,Spain and Chile.”Pleple said he and his team initially came up with the idea a couple of years ago when taking a break at a drink dispenser. “We thought it would be cool to have it for short stories,” said the publisher. “Then,we decided to make a difference: the short-story dispenser was born.”The French publisher hopes the story will be used to fill the “dead time” of a passenger. “In the bus or the subway,everyone can make the most of these moments to read short stories,poems,or short picture books,” said a statement from Short Edition. “And they can be sure to enjoy the quality.”The dispensers are now in locations including Grenobles town hall,its tourist office and its library. The stories are drawn from more than 60,000 stories on Short Editions website.

After all,you want this school to choose you over another excellent student.Finally,make sure you “do your homework”.If youre interested in biology,be sure to know the biology professors names.If youre interested in hiking and camping,be sure to know the name of the outdoors club at the school.5.A.Remember that preparation is the key.B.They will lead to your success in the interview.C.That means its important to succeed as socially well-adjusted.D.First of all,dress appropriately to leave a good impression.E.Tie your interests and goals to what the school in particular has to offer.F.Unfortunately,few tell you what it is that the interviewer is really looking for.G.Instead,you should explain why you choose it over other great universities.答案:15FCAGE.完形填空(2018河北石家莊二中高三一模)Madison Williams was studying in her bedroom when the door burst open.
