It was the beginning of a new term. As a(n)   36  teacher in that school, I didn’t know any of the students. A little girl was   37  at the gate of the classroom. She looked very   38 .
I walked up to her and asked   39  she stood there. But she said   40 .

In the following   54 , she would send me a card on each Thanksgiving Day. Three days ago, I received a(n)   55  to her wedding. And now, I am at her wedding, and she is smiling brightly.

“ Are you too stupid to do anything right?”These words—said by a woman to a little boy who was obviously her son—were spoken   21   he had walked away from her.They boy returned, his eyes down-cast.

As a boy in Rock Island, Dalkoff was terribly   27   .He had few   28   and no self-confidence.One day, his English teacher, Ruth Brach, gave the class an assignment(作業(yè)).The students had been reading To Kill a Mockingbird.Now they were to write their own chapter that would   29    the last chapter of the novel.
Dalkoff wrote his chapter and turned it   30  .Today he can not recall anything   31 
about the chapter he wrote, or what   32   Mrs.Branch gave him.What he does remember is the four words Mrs.Brach wrote in margin(空白處)of the paper:“This is   33  writing.”
Four words.They   34    his life.
  35    I read those words, I had no idea of who I was or   36  I was going to be.”he said.“After reading her note, I went home and wrote a short story, something I had always been   37   of doing but never believed I could do.”
Over the rest of that year in school, he wrote many short stories and always brought them to school for Mrs.Brach to evaluate.She was   38    , tough and honest.“She was just what I
  39  .”Dalkoff said.
His confidence   40  .Dalkoff believes that none of this would have happened if that woman had not written those four words in the margin of his paper.

Thailand’s giant pandas have finally produced a baby. Chiang Mai zoo director Thanapath said eight-year-old female Lin Hui gave birth to a baby panda weighing about 200 grams.
The pandas, Lin Hui and Chuang Chuang, the zoo’s star residents(居民), had shown no interest in reproducing the traditional way since they both arrived on a 10-year loan from China in 2003. The zoo workers’ effort of artificial insemination(人工授精) worked. The baby panda will officially belong to China but Thailand will raise it for about 24 months, Thanapath said.
Thanapath said Lin Hui is very protective of her child and won’t allow any officials to get close. “She holds the baby very carefully.” he said. “She knows how to be a mother even though she has never been one before.” The baby panda appears to be getting along well with its much larger mother.
The birth appeared on the front pages of many Thai newspapers, which carried photos of the baby which is so tiny that it can be held in the hands of a zoo keeper. Other pictures showed the mother Lin Hui gently holding her baby. Thanapath said, “It is great happiness to see the baby panda.We are so happy that we can breed(繁殖)a panda. Every worker at the zoo is proud and I think every Thai will be proud too.”
Breeding pandas is a common practice in China, where dozens are born each year. But it is a rare thing outside of the country. Giant pandas are among the world’s most endangered animals. Nearly 1,600 pandas are believed to survive in China and about 180 are being raised in zoos worldwide.
41. According to the passage, the two pandas, Lin Hui and Chuang Chuang, ______________.
A. are regarded as the best residents
B. arrived in Thailand four years ago
C. had a baby panda in the traditional way
D. are very popular in the zoo in Thailand
42. The baby panda that Lin Hui gave birht to ______________.
A. will be sent to China in two years        B. is her second baby
C. weighs about one kilogram             D. will stay in Thailand for ten years
43. From Paragraph 3 we learn that Lin Hui_______________.
A. doesn’t know how to protect her baby
B. allows people to touch her baby
C. loves her baby very much
D. always leaves her baby alone
44. We can infer that Lin Hui’s giving birth_________________.
A. set a good example to China          B. was hot news in Thailand
C. was a result of good luck             D. attracted the world’s attention
45. The fact that breeding pandas is a common practice in China indicates that_________________.
A. all pandas in the world should live in China
B. few countries in the world want to breed pandas
C. pandas won’t be in danger in the near future
D. China plays a leading role in breeding pandas

This brief book is aimed at high school students, but speaks to anyone learning at any stage of life.
Its formal, serious style closely matches its content, a school-masterly book on schooling.The author, W.H.Armstrong, starts with the basics: reading and writing.In his opinion, reading doesn’t just mean recognizing each word on the page; it means taking in the information, digesting it and incorporating it into oneself just as digests a sandwich and makes it a part of himself.The goal is to bring the information back to life, not just to treat it as dead facts on paper from dead trees.Reading and writing cannot be completely separated from each other; in fact, the aim of reading is to express the information you have got from the text.I’ve seen it again and again: someone who can’t express an idea after reading a text is just as ineffective as someone who hasn’t read it at all.
Only a third of the book remains after that discussion, which Armstrong devotes to specific tips for studying languages, math, science and history.He generally handles these topics thoroughly(透徹地) and equally, except for some weakness in the science and math sections and a bit too much passion(激情) regarding history.Well, he was a history teacher — if conveyed only a tenth of his passion to his students, that was a hundred times more than my history teachers ever got across.To my disappointment, in this part of the book he ignores the arts.As a matter of fact, they demand all the concentration and study that math and science do, though the study differs slightly in kind.Although it’s commonly believed that the arts can only be naturally acquired, actually, learning the arts is no more natural than learning French or mathematics.
My other comment is that the text aged.The first edition apparently dates to the 1960s — none of the references(參考文獻)seem newer than the late 1950s.As a result, the discussion misses the entire computer age.
These are small points, though, and don’t affect the main discussion.I recommend it to any student and any teacher, including the self-taught student.
小題1:According to Armstrong, the goal of reading is to________.
A.gain knowledge and expand one’s view
B.understand the meaning between the lines
C.express ideas based on what one has read
D.get information and keep it alive in memory
小題2:The author of the passage insists that learning the arts_________.
A.requires great effortsB.demands real passion
C.is less natural than learning mathsD.is as natural as learning a language
小題3:What is a shortcoming of Armstrong’s work according to the author?
A.Some ideas are slightly contradictory.
B.There is too much discussion on studying science.
C.The style is too serious.
D.It lacks new information.
小題4:This passage can be classified as________.
A.a(chǎn)n advertisementB.a(chǎn) book review
C.a(chǎn) feature story D.a(chǎn) news report

The strong fear of high school math is lost here among the blue light of computer screens and the sounds of typing keyboard.
A fanfare (喇叭聲) plays from a speaker as a student passes a chapter test.Nearby another student is watching a video lecture.Another works out a math problem in her notebook before clicking on a multiple-choice answer on her screen.
Their teacher at Agoura High School, US, Russell Stephans, sits at the back of the room, watching as scores pop up in real time on his computer grade sheet.One student has passed a level, the data shows; another is retaking a quiz.
"Whoever thought this up^makes life so much easier," Stephans says.
This textbook-free classroom is by no means the norm(常態(tài)), but it may be someday.Slowly, but in increasing numbers, schools across the US are replacing the heavy and expensive textbook with its lighter and cheaper cousin: the digital textbook.
A digital textbook can be downloaded, projected and printed, and can range from simple text to a course filled with multimedia and links to Internet content.Some versions (版本) must be purchased; others are "open source" —free and available online to anyone.
Some praise the technology as a way to save schools' money, replace outdated books and better engage students.Others say most schools don't have the resources to join in, or they question the quality of open-source content.
Paper books still hold the highest percentage of the US textbook market, with digital textbooks making up less than 5 percent, according to analyst Kathy Mickey of Simba Information, a market research group.
But that is changing, as grade schools follow the lead of US liniversities and schools in other countries, including South Korea and Turkey.
California made the largest embrace (擁抱) of digital textbooks this summer when it approved 10 free high school math and science titles developed by college professors.The state left the choice to use them up to individual schools.
"The textbooks are outdated, as far as I'm concerned, and there's no reason why our schools should have our students pull around these old-fashioned and heavy and expensive books," Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger said this summer.
But some disagree with the idea that digital textbooks will improve education quality.
"Keep in mind that with open-source materials, you have to ask: 'Where are they coming from?'" said Jay Diskey, executive director of the Association of American Publishers' school division."Is it a trusted source? Is it based on real research?"
Diskey said traditional textbooks offer a comprehensive course, while some open-source texts provide only bits and pieces."There can be quite a difference of content and accuracy," he said."In many cases, you get what you pay for."
57.The writer's purpose in writing the passage is to       .
A.explain how to use digital textbooks
B.predict the future of paper textbooks
C.describe the current use of digital textbooks and present arguments about it
D.explain the difference between paper textbooks and digital ones
58.What is Schwarzenegger's opinion of traditional textbooks?
A.He is against getting rid of them.
B.He wants to have them replaced with digital ones.
C.Soon they will no longer be used.
D.He believes that they are to blame for the poor quality of education in California
59.Diskey holds the view that       .
A.the government shouldn't strengthen the use of open-source digital texts
B.digital textbooks make up for the shortcomings of traditional textbooks.
C.paper textbooks and digital ones both have advantages
D.traditional textbooks have more reliable content
60.According to the text, which of the following is TRUE?
A.Math is easier with the use of computers.
B.It is believed that digital books will replace traditional ones.
C.Textbook-free classes are the main form of teaching in the US schools.
D.Not all people are in favor of replacing paper textbooks with digital ones.
