My disability is in reading. Most of the time I hate reading because I think people will 1 me if I get
words wrong. Sometimes I feel like crying. I get 2 because I can"t read as well as I would like to. My
reading disability also gets 3 the way with my tests because I sometimes can"t 4 the meaning of the
questions in my tests.
5 most kids, I also find that if a book doesn"t interest me, I easily get 6 and reading becomes a
bigger 7 to me. When I read, I try to read where it is quiet so I can concentrate better. 8 , I have to
readthe sentences over and over again.
I have happy days and sad days. The 9 days are when I am asked to read, and I don"t 10 any of
the words wrong. My dark 11 are when I have my hand up to read and my teacher doesn"t 12 me, but
later calls on me to read a difficult part that is beyond (超出) my ability.

looking at them. 14 knew I had trouble in reading until I attended a class with a girl and she found out
my 15 . Then I found out she couldn"t read very well. I was 16 to find out we had something in 17 .

| 阅读理解 。 | It"s the lunchtime break at Shanghai Xianxia Middle School. No mobile phones can be heard ringing
anywhere. The common sight of crowds of children chatting on their phones or sending short messages
has disappeared.
A grade-2 student said , "I couldn"t concentrate during classes if the cell phone was with me. I couldn"t
help checking if there were messages or missed phone calls. I even played games on the phone sometimes."
The school authorities say they feel the ban (禁令) is necessary to keep order in class. They even gave
out an open letter to remind parents not to let their children bring mobile phones to school. More than 96
percent of parents say they welcome the school decision. The school is also being flexible (灵活的) in
implementing the ban. Those students who live far from school are allowed to bring mobile phones to
contact their parents. But they still have to switch them off in classrooms.
Medical experts have also welcomed the school decision. They say too much dependence on mobile
phones can cause many psychological problems in teenage students. | | 1. The grade-2 student thought that _______. | A. the mobile phone should be on during classes

flights are given plenty of work to keep them 1 . There are also constant communications with people on
the earth. 2 , being with people from whom you cannot get away might be even harder than being 3 .
This is what happens on long submarine (潜水艇) voyages. It will also happen on 4 space flights in the
future. Will there be special problem of adjustment (调整) under such 5 ?
Scientists have studied the reactions (反应) of men to one another during long submarine 6 . They have
found that the longer the voyage 7 , the more serious the problem of 8 is. When men are 9 together for
a long period, they begin to feel uneasy. Everyone has little habits of speaking and behaving that are ordinarily
acceptable. In the limited space over a long period of time, however, these little habits may become very 10 .
Although no one wants to be 11 all the time, everyone needs some degree of privacy(隐私). When people
are enclosed together, they are in what is called a stress situation. That means that they are under an unusual
amount of 12 or stress.
People who are well-adjusted are able to 13 stress situations better than others. That is one reason why
so much 14 is taken in choosing our astronauts. These men undergo (经历) a long period of 15 and
training. One of the things tested is their behavior under stress. | ( )1. A. tired

native speakers. The following ways might help improve their listening ability.
First of all, do things step by step. It is not good to listen to something beyond your level. Better
choose a suitable course and start with the first book. Go on to the second book only after you are sure
you understand the first one.
Secondly, stick to one course of study. Don"t change books often. Never let your attention be attracted
by another course just because it seems to be more"fashionable".
Thirdly, listen to the English news program over the radio from time to time. Better go through the news
stories in the Chinese-language newspaper first. That will make it easy for you to understand the English
news on the radio.
Fourthly, if you have time, listen to some interesting stories in some special English programs, such as
V.O.A. or other listening materials of the same level as that of your textbook. | | 1. This is a piece of advice to learners of English on how to ________. | A. improve their listening ability

hotels. These laptops connect people to their workplace. In the United States today, laptops also connect
students to their classrooms.
Westlake College in Virginia will start a laptop computer program that allows students to do schoolwork
anywhere they want. Within five years, each of the 1500 students at the college will receive a laptop. The
laptops are part of a ＄10 million computer program at Westlake, a 110-year-old college. The students with
laptops will also have access to the Internet. In addition, they will be able to use e-mail to "speak" with their
teachers, their classmates, and their families. However, the most important part of the laptop program is that
students will be able to use computers without going to computer labs. They can work with it at home, in a
fast-food restaurant or under the trees-anywhere at all!
Because of the many changes in computer technology, laptop use in higher education, such as colleges
and universities, is workable. As laptops become more powerful, they become more similar to desktop
computers. In addition, the portable computers can connect students to not only the Internet, but also libraries
and other resources. State higher-education officials are studying how laptops can help students. State
officials are also testing laptop programs at other universities, too.
At Westlake College, more than 60 percent of the staff use computers. The laptops will allow all teachers
to use computers in their lessons. As one Westlake teacher said, "Here we are in the middle of Virginia and
we"re giving students a window on the world.They can see everything and do everything." | | 1. The main purpose of the laptop program is to give each student a laptop to _____. | A. use for their schoolwork
B. access the Internet
C. work at home
D. connect them to libraries | | 2. Which of the following is true about Westlake College? | A. All teachers use computers.
B. 1500 students have laptops.
C. It is an old college in America.
D. Students there can do everything. | | 3. A window on the world in the last paragraph means that students can _____. | A. attend lectures on information technology
B. get information from around the world
C. travel around the world
D. have free laptops | | 4. What can we infer from the passage? | A. The program is successful.
B. The program is not workable.
C. The program is too expensive.
D. We don"t know the result yet. | | 阅读理解。 | For more than twenty years scientists have been searching for signs of life on other planets. Most of
these searches have been done over the radio. The hope is that someone in outer space may be trying to
get in touch with us. Scientists also have sent radio and television messages on spaceships traveling through
space, on the chance that someone may be receptive to such messages.
Scientists are using powerful radio telescopes to listen to signals from about 1, 000 stars, all within 100
light years of earth. In addition, they will scan the entire sky to "listen" for radio messages from more distant
stars. Using a computer, they will be able to monitor more than eight channels at one time. Scientists are
looking for any signal that stands out from the background noise.
Of the 200 billion stars in the Milky Way galaxy (银河星系), scientists find that 5% are like our sun.
Perhaps half of them have a planet like earth. Such a planet would be a reasonable distance from the star
for temperatures to be right for the evolution (进化) of life. Based on the inhabitable (that can be lived in)
planets in our galaxy, most scientists agree that chances are likely that one or more of these planets support
some life.
However, many scientists wonder whether intelligent life exists on other planets. Some believe that twenty
years of searching without any intelligible messages shows that no one is out there. They say that the
evolution of intelligence comparable to ours is unlikely.
Other scientists believe that our search hasn"t been long enough to rule out the possibility that intelligent
life exists in our galaxy. Although our sun family is only about five billion years old, our galaxy is about 20
billion years old. In that time, some scientists think it is likely that civilization much more advanced than
ours have developed. Perhaps these civilizations send us no signals; perhaps we have not recognized the
signals they have sent us. If we hope to find intelligent life, these scientists believe that we have to keep
looking. | | 1. According to the passage, how many planets in our galaxy might be inhabitable? | A. 5 billion.
B. 10 billion.
C. 15 billion.
D. 200 billion | | 2. The first paragraph in this passage is mainly about _______. | A. how scientists are looking for signs of life on other planets
B. why scientists are looking for signs of life on other planets
C. where scientists are looking for signs of life on other planets
D. when scientists are looking for signs of life on other planets | | 3. The underlined word "monitor" in the passage means" _______". | A. find
B. follow
C. check
D. form | | 4. Which of these statements is True based on the information in the passage? | A. The earth is one of the oldest planets in our galaxy.
B. Most scientists believe that there is intelligent life on other planets.
C. Scientists don"t believe that there might be life on other planets.
D. Scientists are trying different ways to find signs of life on other planets. |
