With shining dark eyes, he seems like the kind of kid who would enjoy public speaking.‎ ‎ But he is nervous.“I am here to tell you today why you should … ”Chris trips on the“-ld”, a pronunciation difficulty for many non-native English speakers. His teacher ,Thomas Whaley , is next to him, whispering support.“…Vote for …me …”Except for some stumbles, Chris is doing amazingly well. When he brings his speech to a nice conclusion ,Whaley invites the rest of the class to praise him.‎ ‎ A son of immigrants, Chris started learning English a little over three years ago. Whaley recalls（回想起）how at the beginning of the year，when called upon to ‎ read，Chris would excuse himself to go to the bathroom.‎ ‎ Learning English as a second language can be a painful experience. What you need is a great teacher who lets you make mistakes. “It takes a lot for any student，” Whaley explains，“especially for a student who is learning English as their new language，to feel confident enough to say,‘I do not know，but I want to know.’”‎ Whaley got the idea of this second-grade presidential campaign project when he asked the children one day to raise their hands if they thought they could never be a president. The answer broke his heart. Whaley says the project is about more than just learning to read and speak in public. He wants these kids to learn to boast（夸耀）about themselves.‎ ‎“Boasting about yourself，and your best qualities,” Whaley says，“is very difficult for a child who came into the classroom not feeling confident.”‎ ‎4. What made Chris nervous？‎ A. Telling a story. B. Making a speech.‎ C. Taking a test. D. Answering a question.‎ ‎5. What does the underlined word “stumbles” in paragraph 2 refer to?‎ A. Improper pauses. B. Bad manners. ‎ C. Spelling mistakes. D. Silly jokes.‎ ‎6. We can infer that the purpose of Whaley’s project is to _________.‎ A. help students see their own strengths ‎ B. assess students’ public speaking skills C. prepare students for their future jobs D. inspire students’ love for politics ‎7. Which of the following best describes Whaley as a teacher?‎ A. Humorous. B. Ambitious. C. Caring. D. Demanding.‎ C My 17--year--old daughter went off to college and having her away from home brought back memories of watching Peter Pan when she was little. In the classic TV production, one scene in particular impressed me: when Mrs Darling puts her children ‎ into bed. As she turns off the last of the night lights, she takes one last look at the bedroom and says, “Dear night lights protect my sleeping children.” As a mother, I know how much she loves her children.‎ It has been several weeks since we took our daughter to college and she seems to be adjusting well after a short period of homesickness. For us , though, it is another story. Like most parents, I love checking on my child at night. But now she has gone, and I find the night time the hardest. I miss her most at night.‎ In my neighbourhood, most of the parents whose kids are off to college are dealing with similar melancholy. My husband is filled with anxiety. One friend talked about getting this sick feeling in her stomach as she prepared for the college drop--off. We complained that many of us were too busy to truly enjoy being with our children while we had them.‎ For us mums, seeing Toy Story 3 only made the sadness worse as we watched the character Andy, who is the same age as our kids, say goodbye to his childhood as he prepares to leave for college. And it is not just “ first--time” parents like me. Two mums who have kids already well into college said the separation did not get any easier. “ You feel like something has been taken away from inside you,” said one of them.‎ ‎ I imagine things will get easier with time, especially as I see my daughter adjust to college life. Meanwhile, as I keep my cellphone close to me in bed and text my daughter goodnight and sweet dreams every night, I like to make the messages serve as a night light that keeps her safe.‎ 8. The writer was deeply impressed by the scene in Peter Pan because ______________. ‎ A. she watched the scene with her daughter.‎ B. the scene was very exciting and interesting.‎ C. the scene taught her and her daughter a good lesson.‎ D. as a mother, she understood how much a mother loved her children.‎ 9. After her daughter went to college, the writer _____________.‎ A. didn’t get used to the change for a long time A. often cried as she missed her daughter so much B. realized she hadn’t done enough for her daughter C. failed to have a good sleep every night 8. According to the last paragraph, why did the writer keep her cellphone close to her in bed?‎ A. To call her daughter any time.‎ B. To wait for her daughter’s calls.‎ C. To say goodnight to her daughter.‎ D. To wait for her daughter’s messages.‎ ‎ D ‎ I must have always known reading was very important because the first memories I have as a child deal with books. There was not one night that I don't remember mom reading me a storybook by my bedside. I was extremely inspired by the elegant way the words sounded.‎ ‎ I always wanted to know what my mom was reading. Hearing mom say, " I can't believe what's printed in the newspaper this morning," made me want to grab it out of her hands and read it myself. I wanted to be like my mom and know all of the things she knew. So I carried around a book, and each night, just to be like her, I would pretend to be reading.‎ ‎ This is how everyone learned to read. We would start off with sentences, then paragraphs, and then stories. It seemed an unending journey, but even as a six-year-old girl I realized that knowing how to read could open many doors. When mom said," The C-A-N-D-Y is hidden on the top shelf," I knew where the candy was. My progress in reading raised my curiosity, and I wanted to know everything. I often found myself telling my mom to drive more slowly, so that I could read all of the road signs we passed.‎ ‎ Most of my reading through primary, middle and high school was factual reading. I read for knowledge, and to make A's on my tests. Occasionally, I would read a novel that was assigned, but I didn't enjoy this type of reading. I liked facts, things that are concrete. I thought anything abstract left too much room for argument.‎ ‎ Yet, now that I'm growing and the world I once knew as being so simple is becoming more complex, I find myself needing a way to escape. By opening a novel, I can leave behind my burdens and enter into a wonderful and mysterious world where I am now a new character. In these worlds I can become anyone. I don't have to write down what happened or what technique the author was using when he or she wrote this. I just read to relax.‎ ‎ We're taught to read because it's necessary for much of human understanding. Reading is a vital part of my life. Reading satisfies my desire to keep learning. And I've found that the possibilities that lie within books are limitless.‎ ‎11. Why did the author want to grab the newspaper out of mom's hands？‎ ‎ A. She wanted mom to read the news to her.‎ ‎ B. She was anxious to know what had happened.‎ ‎ C. She couldn't wait to tear the newspaper apart.‎ ‎ D. She couldn't help but stop mom from reading.‎ ‎12. According to Paragraph 3，the author's reading of road signs indicates___________‎ ‎ A. her unique way to locate herself ‎ B. her eagerness to develop her reading ability ‎ C. her effort to remind mom to obey traffic rules ‎ D. her growing desire to know the world around her.‎ ‎13. What was the author's view on factual reading？‎ ‎ A. It would help her update test-taking skills.‎ ‎ B. It would allow much room for free thinking.‎ ‎ C. It would provide true and objective information.‎ ‎ D. It would help shape a realistic and serious attitude to life.‎ ‎14. The author takes novel reading as a way to___________.‎ ‎ A. explore a fantasy land ‎ B. develop a passion for learning ‎ C. learn about the adult community ‎ D. get away from a confusing world ‎15. What could be the best title for the passage？‎ A. The Magic of Reading B. The Pleasure of Reading C. Growing Up with Reading D. Reading Makes a Full Man 第二节 （共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。‎ ‎ ‎ Is Fresh Air Really Good for You?‎ We all grew up hearing people tell us to “go out and get some fresh air.”__16____ According to recent studies，the answer is a big YES，if the air quality in your camping area is good.‎ ‎__17____If the air you are breathing is clean---which it would be if you are away from the smog of cities---then the air is filled with life-giving，energizing oxygen.
