请认真阅读下面的短文，用英语回答短文后的问题，并将答案写在横线上。
Time spent in a bookshop can be enjoyable. If you go to a good shop，no assistant will come near to you and say，“Can I help you?” You needn't buy anything you don't want. You may just try to find out where the book you want is and read it. But if you fail，the assistant will lead you there and then he will go away. It seems that he is not interested in selling any books at all.
There is a story which tells us about a good shop. A medical student found a very useful book in the shop. But it was too expensive for him to buy. He couldn't get it from the school library，either. So every afternoon，he went there to read a little at a time. One day，however，he couldn't find the book from its usual place and was leaving when he saw an assistant signing(示意) to him. To his surprise，the assistant pointed to the book in the corner. “I put it there so that it couldn't be sold out，” said the assistant. Then he left and the student went on with his reading.
1. Where was the book that the medical student was looking for?
2. What do you think of the assistant?
3. Do you like reading books in the bookshop? Why or why not?

答案： 1. In the corner.
2. He was kind/helpful/thoughtful.
3. Yes, I do. Because I can read books freely without being disturbed and maybe get help from kind assistants. (或No, I don't. Because I prefer reading at home where it's quieter.)
解析：1. 原文“the assistant pointed to the book in the corner”。
2. 助理为学生保留书籍，体现善良、乐于助人。
3. 开放性问题，合理即可。
