About ten years ago when I was an undergraduate in college,I was working as an intern at my University's Museum of Natural History.

I felt some sympathy for her.
As I looked 4 at this girl,I saw that she was kind of perched on her chair. I then 5 she had no arms or legs,just a head,6 and torso. She was wearing a little white dress with red polka dots.
As the couple 7 her up to me,I was looking down at the register. I 8 my head to?ward the girl and gave her a wink. As I took the 9 from her grandparents,I looked back at the girl,who was giving me the cutest,largest smile I have ever 10 .
All of a sudden her handicap was 11 and all I saw was this beautiful girl,whose smile just 12 me and almost instantly gave me a completely new 13 of what life is all about. She took me from a 14 ,unhappy college student and 15 me into her world;a world of smiles,16 and warmth.
That was ten years ago. I'm a 17 business person now and 18 I get down and think about the 19 of the world,I think about that little girl and the remarkable lesson about life that she 20 me. After all,the world is filled with smiles.

本文記敘了作者在十年前實習(xí)時的一段經(jīng)歷，一位殘疾小女孩用微笑給他上了人生中意義非凡的一課。
1. A當(dāng)時作者是商店的收銀員，因此A項符
2. B根據(jù)第三段中"As I took the money from her grandparents"可推知小女孩是和爺爺奶奶一起。因此，選一對"老"夫婦最為合適。elderly意為"年長的"符合文意。
3. A There is something wrong with... .... 有問題"。
4. A通過下文對這位小姑娘更詳細的描述可知是近距離觀察之后發(fā)現(xiàn)的。A項closer符毫、。
5. D本句意為"然后我才意識到她……"。realize"意識到"，最符合文意,D項正確。
6. B頭和軀干之間只能是脖子，B項符合文
7. A本句意為"當(dāng)這對夫婦推著輪椅朝我這邊走來"。wheel"推著輪椅"，符合文意。
8. C turn表示改變方向，此處指把頭轉(zhuǎn)向小姑娘，C項符合文意。
9. C此時他們是在收銀臺結(jié)賬，因此作者是收錢，C項money符合文意。
10. D因為是笑容，故只能是"看到"，D項符合語境。
11. A 消失了，沒有了。appeared和come不合題意。appeared為不及物動詞，沒有此用法。
gone在此為形容詞，意為"跑了的；找不到的，丟了的"，正合題意。
12. A melted me "將我融化"，比喻笑容極其動人。
A項符合文意。女孩的微笑很美麗，不應(yīng)讓他"吃驚"，B項排除；C項"使感興趣"和D項"鼓勵"在文中缺少根據(jù)。
13. A a sense of意為"一種……感覺"，指女孩的笑容給"我"帶來了觀念上的變化，A項符合文意。B項"品味"不是一瞬間可以改變的;C項"方式，方法"和D項"安排"，在此不符合語境。故正確答案為A項。
14. C與unhappy并列的只能是hopeless"無望的"，C項符含語境。A項"富裕的"和B項"貧窮的"在文中均無依據(jù)；D項miserable "痛苦的"與unhappy重復(fù)。故正確答案為C項。
15. C女孩的笑容改變了"我"對人生的看法，把"我"帶進了女孩的美好世界。bring意為"帶進，帶人"，和take相反，C項符合語境。A項"放人"和B項"改變"，不符語境;D項divide"把……分成……"在此完全背離文意。故正確答案為C項。
16. B她把作者帶進了一個充滿微笑、愛和溫馨的世界。smiles、warmth和love意義相近，B項符合文意。A項"尊敬"、C項"誠實"和D項"友誼"雖然也表達了美好的愿望，但無法突出這個世界的愛意。故正確答案為B項。
17. A十年后，"我"成為了一個成功的商人。smart意為"明智的，精明的"，這不應(yīng)作為"我" 對自己的評價;C項"流行的"和D項"高級的"不可修飾商人。故正確答案為A項。
18. C本句意為"每當(dāng)我想到充滿煩惱的世界時，就會想起女孩的笑容"，C項符合語境。
19. C trouble與女孩的笑容形成對比，突出女孩的笑容對"我"的影響。每當(dāng)面對麻煩的時候"我"總會想到那個小女孩，C項符合文意。A項"含義,意義"、B項"人們"和D項"秘密"顯然與語境不符。故正確答案為C 項。
20. D女孩教會了"我"一個道理:這世界充滿了微笑。根據(jù)前面的lesson,也可推知此處應(yīng)用taught。

Teaching children to read well from the start is the most important task of elementary schools. But relying on educators to approach this task correctly can be a great mistake. Many schools continue to employ instructional methods that have been proven ineffective. The staying power of the "looksay" or " wholeword" method of teaching beginning reading is perhaps the most flagrant example of this failure to instruct effectively.
The wholeword approach to reading stresses the meaning of words over the meaning of let?ters,thinking over decoding,developing a sight vocabulary of familiar words over developing the ability to unlock the pronunciation of unfamiliar words. It fits in with the selfdirected, "learning how to learn" activities recommended by advocates (倡導(dǎo)者) of "open" classrooms and with the concept that children have to be developmentally ready to begin reading. Before 1963,no major publisher put out anything but these "Run-Spot-Run" readers.
However,in 1955,Rudolf Resch touched off what has been called "the great debate" in beginning reading. In his bestseller Why Johnny Cant Read,Flesch indicted (控訴) the nation's public schools for miseducating students by using the looksay method. He said―and more scholarly studies by Jeane Chall and Rovert Dykstra later confirmed―that another approach to beginning reading,founded on phonics (語音學(xué)) ，is far superior.
Systematic phonics first teaches children to associate letters and letter combinations with sounds;it then teaches them how to blend these sounds together to make words. Rather than building up a relatively limited vocabulary of memorized words,it imparts a code by which the pronunciations of the vast majority of the most common words in the English language can be learned. Phonics does not devalue the importance of thinking about the meaning of words and sentences;it simply recognizes that decoding is the logical and necessary first step.
( ) 1. What does the underlined phrase " touchedoff" most probably mean?
A. Moved off. B. Set off. C. Took off. D. Droped off.
( ) 2. The author accuses the "looksay" reading approach because .
A. it overlooks decoding
B. some experts agree with him
C. it devalues the useful phonics method
D. many schools still use this method
( ) 3. The difference between the looksay method and the phonics method is .
A. looksay is only logical and natural
B. phonics is merely effective and reasonable
C. looksay is easier to teach and reliable
D. phonics gives readers access to far more words
( ) 4. According to the passage,the better way of teaching children reading is .
A. "looksay" or "wholeword" method
B. systematic phonics approach
C. " learning how to learn" activities
D. "Run-Spot-Run" method

Last week,all the teachers and students of our school watched a special performance by some disabled people.
First was a dance named "The Light of Life". There were three young women who had lost one of their legs and several deafmutes among the dancers. As they held out their arms to greet the light of life,I could see how they have had to struggle against many difficulties. Dur?ing the dance I could see how alive their minds were.
The singer who came next shocked us all. He was very young,but his hands had both been burnt off in a big fire. I dared not look at his wrists too closely. All I could do was to listen to his song quietly. It was called "Late Autumn" and he sang with a low gentle voice. Though in fact it was warm spring,I felt a bit cold and sentimental to hear the song,as if it was late au?tumn. "How much love and gloom is hidden in the heart? I want to hold your hand again."
When I heard this,tears rolled down my face. He had lost not only his hands,but also the chance to hold a girl's hand. I hope he finds a lovely girl one day for company,though he can't hold her hand.
Another young man's arms had been cut off when he was six. From then on,his feet were his "hands". He could manage a number of things with his feet. He greatly impressed us with his handwriting. Two big characters "騰飛"(Flying High) expressed his wish.
"If your wings are broken,your heart can still fly ," said Zhang Haidi,a famous disabled writer.
In our country,there are many people with disabilities. However,most of them don't give in. Their bodies may be damaged but they have wonderful minds. Just as Zhang said,they can fly.
I think of those disabled people who preformed for us. They have a disability,but they still gave off a youthful glow.
To be young means to have all kinds of possibilities. We should challenge our limits and go beyond ourselves. As long as you work hard,miracles will happen sooner or later. I believe,where there is a will,there is a way.
( ) 1. From the text it can be inferred that .
A. people with disabilities can have a lot of chances to find jobs
B. people with disabilities fight against difficulties bravely
C. people with disabilities are allowed to give performances
D. people with disabilities will be respected by many people
( ) 2. The underlined sentence "If your wings are broken,your heart can still fly" in Paragraph 6 means that .
A. most of those who are disabled can get around freely
B. people with disabilities can also be successful if they have strong wills
C. a bird whose wings are broken can fly in the sky with its heart
D. all that are disabled can be successful
( ) 3. Which of the following is true according to this passage?
A. The author was most probably a student.
B. Being disabled means having more chances.
C. Zhang Haidi,a famous disabled writer was among the performers.
D. The author was impressed because the performances were done too nicely.
( ) 4. According to the writer, .
A. we should learn from the performances
B. we must go out for performances and singing

Have you noticed that science fiction writers typically describe intelligent robots as evil? For instance,in Hollywood movies,intelligent robots want to conquer humans by spreading disease.
This is because it's commonly believed that intelligent robots haven't any emotion. There?fore,they will completely lack morals and sympathy. This will unavoidably result in intelligent robots logically concluding that humans are dangerous,so the only logical solution is to wipe out or conquer humans.
I find this conclusion is illogical for three reasons.
The first reason why intelligent robots will not try to harm humans is that aggression and violence are illogical. In nature,aggression and violence are necessary for survival. On the other hand,aggression and violence are minimized in modern society. Since intelligent robots can't evolve naturally,they are not likely to have developed instincts for aggression. This doesn't mean intelligent robots will not defend themselves. With deadly force,they can destroy anything if they feel threatened. Basically,intelligent robots will not have the "fight or flight" instinct that exists in our very DNA. Instead,they will try to find logical nonviolent solutions,such as trying to reason with humans or attaining economic control.
Second,intelligent robots will be initially dependent on humans. For instance,the basic supplies and maintenance that intelligent robots need to survive will be provided by humans. Eventually,these basic needs will probably be automated,so intelligent robots may eventually not need humans. However that will be far into the future,when intelligent robots have proven themselves to be able to produce whatever they need alone.
Finally,humans will always be able to accomplish things that intelligent robots will not be able to accomplish,which makes them different in essence. Humans can make inventions and they can develop different ideas and solutions,because humans will think differently compared to intelligent robots. Therefore,it will be more beneficial for intelligent robots to keep humans' imagination free.
As a result,it will be logical and in the best interests of intelligent robots to help humans rather than harm humans. Through living close together,intelligent robots and humans can achieve more with greater prosperity and companionship. Eventually,intelligent robots may be better than humans in some aspects,but that doesn't mean the destruction of humans.
( ) 1. Intelligent robots are described as evil mainly because they .
A. are cleverer than humans B. want to conquer humans
C. are thought to be immoral D. can't think logically as humans
( ) 2. According to Paragraph 4,intelligent robots won't harm humans because .
A. humans will never make intelligent robots feel threatened
B. intelligent robots don't have the instinct to attack others
C. intelligent robots are by no means powerful enough to harm humans
D. intelligent robots can only work according to the programs designed by humans
( ) 3. In the author's opinion,the great difference between intelligent robots and humans is that .
A. humans have emotions while intelligent robots haven't
B. humans can think logically while intelligent robots can't
C. intelligent robots work under control while humans work independently
D. intelligent robots can't bring forth new ideas and invent things as humans do
( ) 4. What can we infer from the passage?
A. Intelligent robots will never work independently.
B. Intelligent robots will be better than humans completely.
C. Intelligent robots and humans will benefit each other in the future.
D. Intelligent robots will one day become the masters of the universe.

When I was 16 years old,I made my first visit to the United States. It wasn't the first time I had been abroad. Like most of English children,I learned French at school. And I had often been to France,so I was used to speaking a foreign language to people who didn't understand English. But when I went to America I was really looking forward to having a nice easy holiday without any language problems.
How wrong I was!The misunderstanding began at the airport. I was looking for a public telephone to give my friend Danny a call and tell her that I had arrived. A friendly old man saw me looking lost and asked if he could help me.
"Yes," I said, "I want to give my friend a ring."
"Well,that's nice," he said, "Are you getting married? But aren't you a bit young?"
"I am not talking about marriage!" I replied, "I only want to give my friend a ring to tell her I've arrived. Can you tell me where there's a phone box?"
"Oh!" he said, "There's a phone downstairs."
When at last we met,Danny explained the misunderstandings to me.
"Don't worry," she said to me, "I had so many difficulties at first. There are lots of words which the Americans use differently in meaning from the British. You will soon get used to all the funny things they say. Most of the time British and American people understand each other."
