Do you enjoy reading? Do you read newspapers or magazines? Chances are, if you do any of these activities, your pre-school child is on his way to becoming a reader. The process of learning to read is complex, and one of the most important things to know is that parents can help their children learn to read. As children have conversations with adults, they hear both new and familiar words and their vocabulary grows. There are many opportunities for adults and children to talk together, such as when riding in the car or in a bus, doing housework like fixing dinner, or bathing and getting ready for bed. A major part of conversation is listening. When children talk, adults listen and respond. Then children listen and respond, and so the flow of conversation happens. Have you watched you pre-school child pretend to read to his younger sisters or brothers? Have you read his favorite story over and over? These experiences tell children that reading is fun. And when things are fun and they are repeated, your child will see letters. He begins to connect them to familiar words, especially the letters that make up his name. A natural next step for him to take is to write the letters. When children see parents make a grocery list, they want to use a pencil and paper to make their own list. To encourage these beginning writing activities, have pencils, markers, crayons and scrap paper within your children’s reach. The more children get connected with talking, listening, reading and writing, the easier it is for them to become active readers. While you as a parent have a big influence on these early behaviors, it is important to remember that opportunities for literacy experiences happen when you and your child share in the basic routines（日常生活）of everyday life. 1.The third paragraph tells us that parents can talk with their children__________. A. during daily routines B. only in quiet places C. in their spare time D. when they are eager to walk 2.During the process of learning to read, children may _________. A .copy the action of the adults. B. prefer to talk with those of their own age. C. keep their interest in reading all the time. D. waste a lot of paper and other materials. 3.When do children want to learn to write? A. When their parents ask them to do so. B. When they believe they can write well. C. When they remember what their parents taught them. D. When they can connect letters with familiar words. 4.The passage is written to _____________. A. talk about parents’ influence on their children’s behavior B. encourage parents to set a good example to their children C. advise parents to make reading a part of their children’s daily life D. make parents believe in the importance of early reading

Marie Curie was a Polish physicist and chemist who lived between 1867---1934. Together with her husband, Pierre, she discovered two new elements (radium and polonium) and studied the x-rays. She found that the harmful properties of x-rays were able to kill tumors(肿瘤). By the end of World WarⅠ, Marie Curie was probably the most famous woman in the world. She had made a conscious decision, however, not to patent（申请专利）methods of processing radium or its medical applications. Marie Curie was born on November 7, 1867, in Poland and died on July 4, 1934. Her co-discovery with her husband Pierre Curie of the radioactive elements radium and polonium represents one of the best known stories in modern science for which they were recognized in 1901with the Nobel Prize in Physics. In 1911, Marie Curie was honored with a second Nobel Prize, this time in Chemistry, to honor her for successfully isolating pure radium and determining radium’s atomic weight. As a child, Marie Curie amazed people with her great memory. She learned to read when she was only four years old. Her father was a professor of science and the instruments that he kept in a glass case fascinated Marie. She dreamed of becoming a scientist, but that would not be easy. Her family became very poor, and at the age of 18, Marie became a governess(家庭教师). In 1891, Marie attended the Sorbonne University in Paris where she met and married Pierre Curie, a well-known physicist. Marie Curie contributed greatly to our understanding of radioactivity and the effects of x-rays. She received two Noble Prizes for her brilliant work, but died of leukemia, caused by her repeated exposure to radioactive material. 1.What does the author’s purpose of writing the passage? A. To give us a general introduction of Marie Curie. B. To show us how Madame Curie discovered radium. C. To tell us how Madame Curie received the Noble Prize. D. To let us know something about Madame Curie’s childhood. 2.In this passage the underlined word “isolating” probably means________. A. discovering B. inventing C. separating D. comparing 3.Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage? A. Marie Curie could learn things by heart very easily as a child. B. Marie Curie had a great ambition when she was young. C. Marie Curie found it hard for her to receive high education. D. Marie Curie received two Noble Prizes in physics. 4.Which is the right order of happenings in this passage? a. married Pierre Curie b. attended University c. discovered radium d. determined radium’s atomic weight e. won the Noble Prize in physics A. b, c, a, d, e B. b, a, c, d, e C. b, a, c, e, d D. b, c, a, e, d

Global warming is the process of earth’s atmosphere heating up. Over the last 100 years, the average temperature of earth’s atmosphere has gone up 1 Fahrenheit. The weather has not changed exactly the same way in every area of the planet. But scientists think that the rise in average temperature is already affecting the earth’s climate. Many scientists now believe that global warming is caused by cutting down trees, producing more trash, and polluting the environment are some of the reasons that the temperature has gone up. Many scientists believe that the biggest causes of global warming are new human technologies that release greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. The greenhouse effect is not new. Certain gases in the atmosphere, like carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide and methane, prevent heat energy from escaping back into space. In the past, the climate didn’t change much because nature produced just the right amount of greenhouse gases to deal with it. Today, most scientists are pretty sure that the rising temperature can’t be blamed on nature. Ever since the industrial revolution in the 1700s, humans have relied on machines for daily life. And many of those machines give off a lot of greenhouse gases. An increase in the release of greenhouse gases from human activities is throwing nature off balance. The climate is a very complicated thing, but many scientists agree that the rising atmospheric temperature has already damaged the environment. Sheets of ice, called glaciers, are melting in Antarctica and other parts of the globe. As glaciers break off and melt into the oceans, they are adding warm water to the oceans and causing the sea level to rise. Over the past last 100years, the sea level has risen 6-8 inches around the world. That means land along the coasts is beginning to disappear under water. Bigger and warmer oceans are also adding to other weather problems caused by pollution in the atmosphere. Some places have received more rain, others have had bigger storms and a few areas in the world have experienced unusual droughts. 1.What is mainly talked about in this passage? A. The melting of glaciers. B. Global warming. C. The world’s weather. D. The earth’s temperature. 2.What causes global warming according to scientists? A. Human activities. B. The nature itself. C. The earth’s atmosphere. D. New discoveries 3.How can greenhouse gases make the globe warm? A. They keep heat in the atmosphere B. They let the heat go out into space. C. They release heat into the air. D. They can make the other gases warm. 4.From the passage we can see that global warming will bring about _________. A. the pollution in the atmosphere B. natural disasters C. population pollution D. the rise of glaciers

It is often difficult for visitors to understand Americans lack of desire for privacy(隐私) . They are not a nation of walled gardens and closed gates. Their yards normally run into one another without fences, they often visit one another’s homes without being invited or telephoning first, they leave their office doors open while they work. Their lack of desire for privacy probable results from their history as a nation. America is a big country. There have never been walled cities in the United States, nor was there the need for Americans to protect themselves from neighboring states. During the early years, America had so few settlers that neighbors were very important, they were not to be shut out by doors and fences. Neighbors offered protection and helped in the hard work of settling the land. They depended upon each other. From the nation’s early history has come the desire for openness rather than privacy. Visitors will notice this desire in a number of small ways, there may be rooms in American homes that do not have doors or that have glass walls. If you notice that people forget to close your door when they leave your room, do not think that this is rude, help them to learn that you would like it to be closed, or else become used to new ways. In either case, be patient with the differences. 1.According to the passage, visitors to America sometimes have difficulty understanding ___________. A .Americans’ openness B. American’s lack of desire for privacy C. Americans’ way of home D. American’s style of life 2.During the early years, people were never shut out by doors because _________. A. they were neighbors B. they were friends C. they depended on each other D. they got used to that 3.Visitors will notice American’s desire for openness in a way ___________. A .they walled their houses with glass B. they leave the office doors open while working C. they never have fence D. they depended upon each other 4.Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A .No Walled Cities. B. The Early Settlers C. Americans’ Lack of Desire for Privacy D. be Patient with Differences

任务型读写(共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分)阅读下面短文，根据所读内容在表格中的空白处填入恰当的单词。注意：每个空格只填一个单词。 Some people succeed, while others may not. This is because some people possess certain qualities, which others do not. The first thing you must remember is that in order to succeed, you must be optimistic. If you do not expect to win, you will not try as hard as those who do expect to win. You also need to have a clear aim and a reason for doing something because motivation is a key to achieving success. If you do not have an aim, you will not be motivated to work hard put your performance under the microscope to make sure that every detail is right. Another quality that helps people succeed is creativity-----thinking about things in a different way and wondering how others would do the same thing. Think about some successful people you know. They might be successful with a little creativity, but the most successful people are the most creative ones. Reading is another to success, as it will help you learn about how other people have achieved success. If you want to learn how to set up a successful business, you should read books about famous people like Bill Gates and Jerry Yang, who have achieved amazing success in their areas of business. Practicing is equally important if you want to succeed because practice makes perfect. Practice every day at whatever career you are in, and by doing so, you will see yourself, your business and your self-confidence begin to grow. If you feel confident about what you do, this confidence will make other people believe in you as well. Your colleagues will be happy to work with you, and your boss will give you more responsibility. Finally if you are a successful person, you will be able to look people in the eye and smile confidently. Success is yours for the taking! Cheers!
