Kids who receive special education are, without doubt, the hardest working children in any school. When they are having difficulty learning basic literacy and number concepts, when they break rules, when they need more services, support and adult attention than their peers, then they are struggling the hardest. In psychology, we are trained to think that if we are feeling angry or confused when sitting with a patient, then we are probably feeling just what our patient is feeling. The same is true for students with disabilities. Whatever we feel when we work with them, they are probably feeling as they work with us.

    If you have a disability that affects your education, then you have a brain disorder. Because education, even in mathematics, is largely verbal（用言辭）, most brain disorders responsible for educational disabilities affect language, and how you process words and ideas in written and oral form. To imagine how much effort a child with a language disability spends each school day, imagine yourself attending a school today taught in a language you had a basic understanding of. Imagine though, that while you seem fluent to others, you have trouble when people talk too fast, use idioms or expressions.

   When adults and classmates blame, or criticize kids who receive special education, they are struggling with their own confusion. It is difficult to imagine the world as it is lived by someone with an educational disability. It is difficult to understand how someone who can be so "normal" can have so many problems. It is so easy to imagine that if they just tried harder... without understanding that just to do the ordinary, kids with disabilities are making an extraordinary effort.

1.What is the purpose of the author by writing the passage?

A. to introduce how hard to be a special education teacher.

B. to think highly of the children with disabilities.

C. to show the disabled have much trouble in understanding.

D. to call on the society to care for the disabled.

2. If a disabled kid learns number concepts, he __________.

A. won’t work as hard as a normal.

B. will work double as hard as a normal.

C. will be as patient as the normal.

D. will think of his disability first.

3.If a kid has a disability affecting his education, he will ________.

A. have a hard time using the language.

B. be too foolish to learn maths .

C. not understand what others are saying.

D. have a lot of trouble in remembering words.

4.Before you intend to blame a kid receiving special education, __________.

A. you should try to understand what he is saying.

B. you should imagine the world he lives in.

C. you should imagine yourself in his shoes.

D. you should think of the education he has received.

科目：高中英語 來源：2010—2011年廣東省梅州市曾憲梓中學高二下期末考試英語試卷 題型：閱讀理解

Can you understand the beginning of this essay?
“My smmr hols wr CWOTT. B4, we usd 2go2 NY 2C my bro, his GF & 3 kds FTF.”
The Scottish teacher who received it in class had no idea what the girl who wrote it meant. The essay was written in a form of English used in cell phone text messages. Text messages (also called SMS2) through cell phones became very popular in the late 1990s. At first, mobile phone companies thought that text messaging would be a good way to send messages to customers, but customers quickly began to use the text messaging service to send messages to each other. Teenagers in particular enjoyed using text messaging, and they began to create a new language for messages called texting.
A text message is limited to 160 characters, including letters, spaces, and numbers, so messages must be kept short. In addition, typing on the small keypad of a cell phone is difficult, so it’s common to make words shorter. In texting, a single letter or number can represent a word, like “r” for “are,”“u” for “you,” and “2” for “to.” Several letters can also represent a phrase, like “l(fā)ol” for “l(fā)aughing out loud.” Another characteristic of texting is the leaving out of letters in a word, like spelling “please” as “pls.”
Some parents and teachers worry that texting will make children bad spellers and bad writers. The student who wrote the essay at the top of this page said writing that way was more comfortable for her. (The essay said, “My summer holidays were a complete waste of time. Before, we used to go to New York to see my brother, his girlfriend, and their three kids face to face.”)
Not everyone agrees that texting is a bad thing. Some experts say languages always evolve, and this is just another way for English to change. Other people believe texting will disappear soon. New technology for voice messages may soon make text messages a thing of the past.
【小題1】What is the writer’s opinion of text messaging?

A．It is fun and easy to do.
B．It is not bad for children.
C．It will make children bad writers.
D．The writer does not give an opinion.
【小題2】Which characteristic of texting is NOT described in the passage?
A．Using phrases to represent essays
B．Using numbers to represent words
C．Using letters to represent phrases
D．Using letters to represent words
【小題3】Which of the following was most probably the title of the student’s essay?
A．My Gr8 TchrB．CU in LAC．My GFD．My Smmr Hols
【小題4】   Why do some people think that texting is bad?
A．It costs too much.B．It’s too difficult to type.
C．Children won’t learn to write correctly.D．It’s not comfortable.
【小題5】Why aren’t some people worried about the effect of texting?
A．Not many people use texting.
B．Spelling in English is too difficult.
C．Children quickly become bored with texting.
D．Texting will disappear because of new technology.

D. R. Gaul Middle School is in Union, Maine, a blueberry-farming town where the summer fair finds kids competing in pig scrambles(爭奪) and pie-eating contests.

Gaul, with about 170 seventh- and eighth-graders, has its own history of lower level academic achievement. One likely reason: Education beyond the basic requirements hasn't always been a top priority(優(yōu)先) for families who've worked the same land for generations. Here, few adults have college degrees, and outsiders(局外人) (teachers included) are often kept at a respectful distance.

Since 2002, Gaul's students have been divided into four classes, each of them taught almost every subject by two teachers. The goal: To find common threads across disciplines to help students create a big picture that gives fresh meaning and context to their class work -- and sparks(激發(fā)) motivation for learning.

Working within state guidelines, each team makes its individual schedules and lesson plans, incorporating non-textbook literature, hands-on lab work and field trips. If students are covering the Civil War in social studies, they're reading The Red Badge of Courage or some other period literature in English class. In science, they study the viruses and bacteria that caused many deaths in the war.

Team teaching isn't unusual. About 77 percent of middle schools now employ some form of it, says John Lounsbury, consulting editor for the National Middle School Association. But most schools use four- or five-person teams, which Gaul tried before considering two-person teams more effective. Gaul supports the team concept by "looping" classes (跟班) so that the same two teachers stick with the same teens through seventh and eighth grades. Combining teams and looping creates an extremely strong bond between teacher and student. It also, says teacher Beth Ahlholm, "allows us to build an excellent relationship with parents."

Ahlholm and teammate Madelon Kelly are fully aware how many glazed looks they see in the classroom, but they know 72 percent of their eighth-graders met Maine's reading standard last year -- double the statewide average. Only 31 percent met the math standard, still better than the state average (21 percent). Their students also beat the state average in writing and science. And in2006, Gaul was one of 47 schools in the state to see testing gains of at least 20 percent in four of the previous five years, coinciding roughly with team teaching's arrival.

請認真閱讀下列短文，并根據所讀內容在文章后表格中的空格里填入最恰當的單詞。

Filmmakers in Hollywood produce hundreds of films each year and audiences around the world watch them. In many films, characters smoke cigarettes and other forms of tobacco. In the past, researchers have documented how adolescents in the United States are influenced by watching those images of smoking on the screen. They found that kids who watch many movies where characters smoke are more likely to try smoking themselves.

Dr. James Sargent, a researcher with Dartmouth University Medical School in New Hampshire, says those research findings are strong and reliable, but he says that many people are unconvinced when they hear that movies might contribute to adolescent smoking. “How can movies be to blame for a third of adolescent smoking when there’s only, you know, 30 seconds to a minute of smoking in every movie? So what we wanted to do with this study was really range the exposure for people so that they understood how much exposure kids really get when it comes to seeing these actors modeling smoking on the big screen.”

Sargent and some international colleagues counted how often images of smoking were seen by adolescents. They watched about 500 popular movies and counted the images of smoking in each. Then they multiplied that number of images by the number of adolescents estimated to have seen the films. They estimate that billions of images of smoking in American films are seen by kids around the world.

“So it is a big international problem to the extent that American movie companies are exporting smoking in youth-rated movies, the kids in other countries are seeing the smoking, and it’s positioning smoking as something they want to do,” he concludes.

Sargent says almost nothing else compares with smoking in terms of public health problems around the world. Each year millions of people die of diseases caused by smoking: lung and other cancers, heart diseases and respiratory diseases. Sargent says many of those people started smoking during their adolescent years.

“We’ve already shown pretty convincingly that seeing smoking in movies is bringing kids to the tobacco industry,” he says. “So the movie industry has some responsibility here. The movie industry could do something that would reduce smoking in youth-rated movies; they could rate smoking R （for restricted）.” He notes that’s what public health activists are trying to get filmmakers to do. And if they did that, it would reduce 60 percent of growth of impressions the kids in his sample had seen.

 

Hollywood’s images of smoking encourage teens to light up

Screen 71.          are likely to encourage kid audiences to pick up smoking.

But people have different opinions about the

72.          of screen smoking on teenagers.

Many people don’t 73.          movies’ contribution to teen smoking because they think kids are not so much

74.          to screen smoking.

Others point out that the large number of smoking images in American films shows that teens see smoking on the screen very 75.          .

So American movie companies are thought to be “selling smoking” 76.          .

The number of 77.          due to smoking diseases shows that screen smoking affects public health greatly.

It is filmmakers’ 78.                   to restrict smoking in youth-rated movies.

It’s convincingly proved that seeing smoking in movies is teaching kids to form the 79.          of smoking.

If films reduce smoking images, it would reduce the

80.          that kids start smoking.

A youngster’s social development has a very great effect on his academic progress. Kids who have trouble getting along with their classmates can end up behind academically as well and have a higher chance of dropping out. In the early grades especially, experts say, youngsters should be encouraged to work in groups rather than individually so that teachers can find children who may be having problems making friends. “When children work on a project,” says LiNian Kate, an educational professor at the University & Illinois, “they learn to work together, to disagree, to think to take turns and lighten tensions.” These skills can’t be learned through lecture. We all know people who have wonderful technical skills but don’t have any social skills. Relationships should be the first “R”.

At a certain age, children are also learning to judge themselves in relation to others. For most children, school marks are not set by an inside clock but by the outside world Just as the 1 – year – old is struggling to walk and the 6 – year – old is struggling to meet expectations. “Young kids don’t know how to distinguish between effort and ability”, says Tynette Hills, professor of early – childhood education for the state of New Jersey. If they try hard to do something and fail, they may conclude that they will never be able to accomplish a particular task. “The effect is serious,” says Hills, “A child who has had his confidence really damaged needs a rescue operation.”

1．The author seems to think that a kid’s poor relationship with his classmates would         .

       A．have negative effects on his study
