Passage 3(2015 江蘇鎮(zhèn)江,C)
It is believed in some ways that the daughter is the fathers lover. But my experience has taught me in a different way. For a long time,my father has been a very vague figure (模糊的形象) to me.He was a man of few words,tall but slim and nothing else.
When I was in primary school,my father was never there to pick me up,and he never came to any of my parentteacher meetings.He was always busy doing projects. I remember when I was in middle school and my head was badly hurt in a PE class. During my operation,my father was nowhere to be found. This hurt me most. At that moment,I considered my father as a coldblooded man who did not care about me at all.
But things seemed different at my high school graduation ceremony,where I was chosen to represent my class and give a speech. My father,once again,told me he had a business trip in a place outside the city and would be unable to show up (露面) .“Don’t come.I will be very nervous if I see you ,” I told him.
I remember my speech went smoothly.After the ceremony was over and I was about to leave.I suddenly noticed a familiar (熟悉白勺) looking man sitting in a comer of the hall.It was my father!J was so surprised that I rushed to him with tears (目艮淚) running down my face.“Well done”’he said.His eyes were also filled with tears.
Later,I found out that my father had managed to finish his work by staying up late,and he drove for eight hours to get back.He had been sitting in the comer because he didn’t want me to see him. My father remembered every word in my speech.
For much of my life,I described my father as a coldblooded man who only cared about his work.But when I thought deeply about this,it was obviously (明顯地) not true. At my graduation ceremony,I could feel my father’s deep love. The fact is that seeing is not believing,and seeing may not be the fact if we don't perceive (感知) the world with our hearts and minds.There’s no doubt that life doesn’t lack (缺少) love,but sometimes our eyes have trouble seeing it.

Passage 8(2013 訕頭潮南,B)
Reading is the key to school success and,like any skill,it takes practice.A child learns to walk by practicing until he no longer has to think about how to put one foot in front of the other. An excellent sportsman practices until he can play quickly,correctly and without thinking. Educators call it “automaticity (自動性) ”.
A child learns to read by sounding out the letters and finding the meaning of the words. With practice,he stumbles less and less,reading by the phrase. With automaticity,he doesn’t have to think about the meaning of the words,so he can give all his attention to the meaning of the text.
It can begin as early as first grade.In a recent study of children in Illinois schools,Alan Rossman of Northwestern University found that automatic readers in the first grade not only read almost three times as fast as the others,but also got better results in exams.
According to Rossman,the key to automaticity is the amount of time a child spends reading,not his IQ.Any child who spends at least 3. 5 to 4 hours a week reading books,magazines or newspapers will probably reach automaticity.lt can happen if a child turns off TV just one night for reading at home.
You can test yourself by reading something new which is suitable for your level. If you read aloud with expression,with a sense of the meaning of the sentences,you probably are an automatic reader. If you read brokenly,one word at a time,without expression or meaning,you need more practice.
1. "Reading is the key to school success" means that reading .
A. helps school develop faster
B. is a key to a successful school
C. helps students go to a key school
D. can improve students’ learning results
2. Children with “automaticity” can read faster because they .
A. know how to read the words
B. do not have to think while reading
C. read by themselves without any help
D. pay attention to the meaning of the text
3. Rossman tells that any child who will possibly be an auto- matic reader.
A. turns off TV one night 4 weeks
B. reads books by the word quickly
C. spends an hour reading every day
D. gets the same grades as others in exams
4. The underlined word “stumbles” in the passage means “ ”in Chinese.
A. 結結巴巴地讀 B. 全神貫注地讀
C. 心不在焉地讀 D. 聲情并茂地讀
5. The best title for the passage is“ ”.
A. IQ Is the Key to the Automaticity
B. TV Is Bad for Children’s Reading
C. Automaticity Depends on Practice
D. Automatic Readers Will Be Successful
