Earlier this morning I e-mailed an old friend, Mark. We have been out of touch for 12 years, but the 36 is a wonderful thing. Finding his e-mail address 37 less than a minute. He is working on his doctoral paper in western America. Mark and I met at a summer 38 that we both attended. I went every year from the time I was 8 or 9 until I was 15. I don’t 39 exactly, but I think Mark was there for as many years as I was. We lived close to each other and 40 saw each other around the campsite, but not often. Mostly we stayed together for a week or two in the 41 and wrote letters back and forth during the rest of the first few years. I still have all of his letters in a box somewhere. I come across them occasionally and 42 to sit down and read through them, but I never have. He was a 43 and precious friend to me, and I am deeply 44 that we have drifted so far apart. Mark was a very kind and incredibly bright and funny 45 . He loved Monty Python — I mean he was a fanatic(狂热者), and could 46 entire movies from memory. He was one of those kids who 47 such a unique and powerful mind 48 they never quite fit into the main stream of life. 49 Mark, who I believe realized that, never seemed to care about it. When I knew that Mark was working on his 50 (on a highly intellectual and fairly mysterious and difficult topic), I thought, “Well yes, of course.” He is just where I would 51 him to be. I wonder if he will write me back. I wonder if he will be 52 by where I am. I wonder whether he and I can be 53 again, or whether these years have left us with 54 in common. I wonder whether he can ever be the man I 55 , or only remain the boy I knew. 1.A. world B.

As a music teacher for twenty-seven years, I have always known that music touches the soul. It can break through all kinds of barriers to reach students in a very special way. It can be the means for each child to find their light. A few years ago, I was blessed with the opportunity to teach pre-school students one afternoon a week. One of my most memorable students was Vanessa. She was five years old, had difficulty walking, and could not speak. We mostly sat on the floor for our music lessons and Vanessa liked to sit on my lap. One of her favorite songs was John the Rabbit. It was a call and response song where I sang the call and the students clapped two times while singing the repeating phrase, “Oh, yes!” Vanessa liked to put her hands together with mine and clap with me. We performed that song during every class, Vanessa and I clapping together. She never said or sang a word. One day late in the school year, when the song was finished, Vanessa turned around, looked me in the eye, clapped her tiny hands two times and said the words “Oh, yes!” I opened my mouth and could not speak. Through music, we had made a connection. Several years later, I came across Vanessa on the street in town. I stopped my car and waved to say hello. She waved back with a big smile on her face and then clapped her hands two times, mimicking(模仿) the song we had performed in our music class. This precious little girl, through her connection with music, left an impression on me that will last forever. Every child has the ability to learn and grow. It is up to us educators to discover the way to reach each and every one of our students. We all must find each child’s light. 1.The author thinks music ________. A. can make children calm down B. can connect heart to heart C. is difficult for pre-school students D. is a good means to find a job 2.According to the second paragraph, Vanessa ________. A. got used to singing songs B. was too shy to speak C. was the youngest in the class D. enjoyed the author’s classes 3.When Vanessa spoke the words “Oh, yes!”, the author felt ________. A. surprised B. happy C. frightened D. satisfied 4.What can we infer from the last two paragraphs? A. The author has been in touch with Vanessa for several years. B. Vanessa became as healthy as other children. C. The song made a deep impression on Vanessa. D. Being a good educator became Vanessa’s dream. [

The first time Luca heard the Island of Inventions, he was very young, but the wonders he heard about sounded so unbelievable to him that they were forever kept in his memory. Since then, he never stopped searching clues which might lead him to that place of wonder. He read widely to collect information. Taking a little from here and there, he got quite a clear idea of what the Island was really like. It was a secret place, where all the great men learn and invent together. To be able to join that select club, you had to have created great inventions. Only then could you receive the invitation. To get a chance, Luca spend the years studying and inventing. Every new idea he got, he made it into an invention, and if there were anything he didn’t understand, he would seek help. Soon he met other brilliant inventors too, and he told them of the secrets of the Island. These young inventors would likewise dream of being sent “the letter”. As time passed, the disappointment of not being sent the letter gave rise to even greater cooperation and help between them. Their inventions soon became known throughout the world. But no invention came. They didn’t lose heart. They continued learning and inventing, trying to come up with better ideas. Fresh talent was added to their group. One day, Luca, already very old, was speaking with a brilliant young man who had written to join their group. Luca told the young man the secrets of the Island, and of how he was sure that they would receive an invitation. Surprised, the young inventor said: “What?

Many famous painters worked in Antwerp during the city’s period of greatest power but Peter Paul Rubens is undoubtedly the most famous one of them. Known as Rubens House, the palace-like residence(大宅) and studio where Rubens worked and lived from 1616 until his death in 1640 is now one of Antwerp’s most visited museums. Almost all of the works Rubens and his students created in the Rubens House have been dispersed (分散) over major museums across the whole world, but there is still an impressive collection well worth the visit. Besides paintings form the master himself you will find other works of art and furniture of the 17th century as well as paintings from his students, including works by Jacob Jordaens and Anthony Van Dyck. The Rubens House was not only a studio but also a meeting place for the rich and famous. His clients(委托人) included wealthy merchants, diplomats, and there were also many noblemen who often visited his studio to see how work progressed. The Rubens House even had a special viewing area which allowed visitors to see the artists at work. Ruben bought the house at the beginning of the 17th century after his eight-year-long stay in Italy. Influenced by Italian architecture, he rebuilt the building into an Italian-styled palace with a beautiful garden and moved in the house in 1616. After his death the building was sold. New owners modified the building greatly and by 1937, when the building was purchased by the city of Antwerp, it hardly resembled the original structure. The impressive entrance hall, which connected the studio and the residence, is one of the few parts that survived. Other parts have been carefully restored and reconstructed after original plans and paintings of the house. 1.As a museum, the Rubens House is popular because ________. A. it lies in the famous city of Antwerp B. it holds all the works by Rubens and his students C. there are many people who enjoy visiting it D. Rubens, a great artist, lived and worked there 2.We can learn from the third paragraph that ________. A. the Rubens House was popular with upper-class people B. the Rubens House was the best studio in its time C. Rubens’s students included noblemen and diplomats D. people were not allowed to view the artists working 3.What can be inferred from the text? A. Thanks to its great painters, Antwerp became a rich city. B. Ruben possibly showed strong interest in Italian buildings. C. Antwerp must be a historical city in Italy. D. The Rubens House was completely rebuilt before 1937. 4.Which of the following is TRUE, according to the text? A. Rubens created his works by working with his students. B. A beautiful garden was added to the Rubens House by new owners. C. Today’s Rubens House looks like its original structure. D. The Rubens House is decorated with furniture of the 17th century.

How to use speed reading to go through newspapers or magazines? 1. You will not only save time, but also your focus will increase and you will have fun reading even the uninteresting reports. 2. This plays to the advantage of the tired reader who wants to stay current but has very little time to read. Often all you need to understand a news piece is the first paragraph. Here the reporter will tell you what’s happening, who it’s happening to and where it’s happening. Sometimes you don’t even need to read the entire paragraph because the first sentence or the first couple of sentences give you all the information. If you still have more time you can move on to step two. 3.Read the last paragraph. Some news pieces are follow-ups of events that were earlier reported. In such a situation, the first paragraph may not give you all the information you need. 4. It’s usually in the last paragraph that the user is given the background information that leads to the story. Read the “quotes” after you’ve read the first and last paragraphs and you still feel you need more information or have more time to play with, you can come into middle of the piece by reading the direct speech of the sources of the news item. In all forms of writing where quotations are used, the writer leads the reader into the quotes and then leads the reader out. This takes too much space and therefore, robs the reader out of some precious time. 5. A. Read the first paragraph. B. But the last paragraph will do the job. C. The first paragraph may be not important at all. D. Otherwise, you can stop reading. E. Here are three techniques you can use. F. So glide directly to the quotation marks and read what’s within them. G. If you follow these steps, it’ s possible to get about 80 percent of a news piece.
