Almost all of it is private, for learning is an occupation of the mind, and that process is not open to public examination.If teacher and learner roles are distinguishable, how can teaching aid the child in the quest for knowledge? Smith has one principal rule for all teaching instructions. "Make learning to read easy, which means making reading a meaningful, enjoyable and frequent experience for children."When the roles of teacher and learner are seen for what they are, and when both teacher and learner fulfill them appropriately, then much of the pressure and feeling of failure for both is eliminated. Learning to read is made easier when teachers create an environment where children are given the opportunity to solve the problem of learning to read by reading.1.The problem with the reading course as mentioned in the firstparagraph is that ________.A. it is one of the most difficult school coursesB. too much time is spent in teaching about readingC. students spend endless hours in readingD. reading tasks are assigned with little guidance2.The teaching of reading will be successful if ________.A. teachers can enable students to develop their own way ofreadingB. teachers can improve conditions at school for the studentsC. teachers can devise the most efficient system for readingD. teachers can make their teaching activities observable3.The word "examination" at the end of Paragraph 3 mostprobably means "________".A. inquiryB. observationC. controlD. suspicion4.According to the passage, learning to read will no longer be adifficult task when ________.A. children become highly motivatedB. teacher and learner roles are identicalC. teaching helps children in the search for knowledgeD. reading enriches children's experience5.The main idea of the passage is that ________.A. teachers should do as little as possible in helping studentslearn to readB. teachers should encourage students to read as widely aspossibleC. reading ability is something acquired rather than taughtD. reading is more complicated than generally believedQuestions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage or dialog.Society usually tends to focus on the negative side of inner-city schools. Many people like to stereotype (模式化) these schools which, while these general statements may be true in some cases, tend to be worse most of the time. People think that the students of these schools receive inferior educations. My school, an inner-city school named St. Ignatius, is regarded as one of the best in the state. People also believe that violence occurs on a daily basis, both in the school itself and in the nearby city. I cannot even remember a serious fight at St. Ignatius. People who think that the teachers at inner-city schools lack love for their job worsen this typical stereotype even further. My teachers not only had a love for teaching, but they were also able to cultivate a love for learning in their students.Take Mrs. Borroni, my Spanish teacher, for example. She would often take time out of her class to tell her students about the numerous activities after class with which we should get involved. She loved her job so much that she stayed after school every day to moderate activities such as "Amnesty International" (an international organization that protects human rights) and the Spanish Club. Her students, including me, joined all of the clubs which she moderated just because she made them so interesting.After reading all of this, most people would argue that St. Ignatius should not be considered a true "inner-city school". While this may hold some truth, I am arguing that my life was greatly enriched simply because of the school's location in the middle of Cleveland, as opposed to a poor suburban area.6.What do people often think negatively about?A.

It enriched the author's life.D. It might be better than others.10.How does the author feel about inner-city schools?A. The stereotypes about them are not at all true.B. They are not necessarily all bad, as they can be good.C. They are much poorer than those in the suburbs.D. The students there are more enlightened.Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage or dialog.Before going to high school, I had a very simple view of life. I usually did not think about the subjects of crime, poverty, or homelessness. As far as I knew, these things did not exist. The area around my school forced my eyes open as early as the first day of school. On the long bus ride through the city, I saw homeless dogs walking the streets. I also clearly recall seeing a homeless person picking through a trash can for the first time ever. The poverty of the area around my school made me see how truly lucky I was. I now began to appreciate everything which had been handed to me in life. In the long run, this led me to put a lot more faith in God because of all that He had given me. I started going to religious services more often. This also indirectly led to my involvement in the community around the school.Students' lives become enriched simply by attending an inner-city school. When a person is exposed to city life, many different advantages can be gained. For someone who had lived in thesuburbs all his life, such as myself, a new style of living can beexperienced. This alone expands one's views of life in general. The religious aspect of my life grew, I was easily able to get involved in community service projects, and I became much more aware of the dangers which exist in the city. Going to school in the city helped me to overcome the simple views I once had, and I am now better prepared to take on the challenges which await me in life.11.What sort of school does the author go to?A.

This is not always easy to provide as their behavior can sometimes be difficult to handle. If they get excited or upset then they may become more confused and more difficult to look after. Although sometimes it can be extremely difficult, it is best to be patient and not to get upset yourself. You should always encourage old people to do as much as possible for themselves but be ready to lend a helping hand when necessary.Failing memory makes it difficult for the person to recall all the basic kinds of information we take for granted. The obvious way to help in this situation is to supply the information that is missing and help them make sense of what is going on. You must use every opportunity to provide information but remember to keep it simple and direct."Good morning, Mother. This is Fiona, your daughter. It's eighto'clock, so if you get up now, we can have breakfast downstairs." When the elderly person makes confused statements, e.g. about going out to his or her old employment or visiting a dead relative, correct him in a calm matter-of-fact fashion: "You don't work in the office any more. You are retired now. Will you come and help me with the dishes?"We rely heavily on the information provided by signposts, clocks, and newspapers. These assist us to organize and direct ourbehavior. Confused old people need these aids all the time tocompensate for their poor memory. Encourage them to use reminder boards or diaries for important coming events and label the contents of different boxes. Many other aids such as information cards, old photos, addresses or shopping lists could help in individual cases.16.When do elderly people respond best?A. When they are calm and unhurried.B. When people tell them to be calm and unhurried.C. When their environment is calm and unhurried.D. When others are calm and unhurried.17.What should you encourage old people to do?A. To do as little as possible.B. To do as much as they can.C. To help others when needed.D. To be patient and not get upset.18.How should we provide information to old people with failingmemories?A. By being helpful.B. By being direct.C. By being sensitive.D. By being obvious.19.What is the purpose of information provided on such things assignposts?A. To help us organize and direct our behavior.B. To help us make use of newspapers.B A B AC A CD D D B B A C D C D B A B。
