第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。
A
As the father of a student, I have experienced first hand what a great teacher is. My son was in the 4th grade last year, and he had a teacher called Miss Green. I believe that when he is an adult he will surely look back on her as the best teacher he has ever had.
My son has attention deficit disorder(注意力缺损症) that makes it a little more difficult for him to learn. She was able to change her teaching methods for him so that he could keep up with the rest of the class. As a result, he got straight As on many subjects. She regarded her class as a family and they even had their own class song. She would often have them sing it to encourage them and develop a team spirit for them. When she saw that they were no longer listening carefully to what she was teaching, she would have them close their textbooks, stand up all around the room and throw around a small football. This helped them clear their minds and then pay attention to the lesson again. Besides, she was quick to reply to any phone calls or emails from us and got rid of our worries about children quickly.
When my son went to the 5th grade this year, we happened to pass her classroom. When she saw my son, she smiled, and she came out and hugged him. She generally loves all of the children in her classroom and that love really shows. I can only pray that my son will continue to get teachers just like her for the rest of his school years.
21. With the teacher’s help, the writer’s son ______.
A. became the best student in his class B. was interested in singing songs C. quickly finished his 4th grade lessons D. improved his grades greatly 22. Which of the following is NOT true about Miss Green? A. She regarded the students as members of a family.
B. She had special ways to help students study. C. She was good at teaching football and music. D. She usually made a quick reply to parents’ emails. 23. We can learn from the passage that ______.
A. Miss Green didn’t teach the writer’s son in the 5th grade B. Miss Green was the best teacher at the school C. all the students in the school liked Miss Green D. the writer’s son had many teachers like Miss Green 24. In the passage, the writer mainly tells us ______. A. what his son studied at school B. his son once had a good teacher
C. how to be a good and popular teacher D. a teacher who liked playing with students
B
The average American child spends three to five hours a day watching TV. In 1961, the average child began to watch television at age three; however, today it is nine months. Yet, most parents think that television has bad influence on their children. For example, in the early 1970s, my parents believed that my bad eyesight was the result of sitting too close to the screen, and they therefore made my stay at least six feet from it. Today, most people have no such worry, but many new ridiculous (荒谬的) sayings have appeared:
*TV makes kids stupid. Many children watch more educational programs when they are pre-schoolers. When they grow up, they can read more books and have much better ideas to solve difficult problems than other children.
*TV makes kids violent. The real story is not so simple. Hundreds of studies show that watching violence on TV makes children more aggressive (好斗的). But a study of over 5,000 children also finds that some positive programs make children kinder. The problem is that kids are increasingly watching shows with violence instead of those suitable for their age.
*Sitting around watching TV makes kids overweight. An experiment finds that when children watch less television, they do lose extra weight; however, reducing their television time does not make them more active. The real problem lies in snacking (吃零食). A widespread habit for kids, and junk-food advertisements(广告).
*TV helps kids get to sleep. The opposite is true. The more television children watch, the more likely they are to have irregular（不规律的）sleep and nap(小睡) patterns. Allowing kids to watch television is part of the problem, not the solution.
25. Which one is the advantage of educational TV programs?
A. They will make children solve difficult problems better than others. B. They will improve children’s ability to get along with others. C. They are likely to make children more aggressive. D. They will make sure of children’s success in the future.
26. Why are children spending much time watching TV likely to be fat?
A. Watching TV makes children lazy and inactive. B. Children are attracted by the food advertisement on TV. C. Watching TV doesn’t burn up as much fat as doing sports. D. Children like to snack while watching TV.
27. What influence does watching TV have on a child’s sleep?
A. Children are likely to sleep deeper after watching TV. B. Children’s sleep time will be greatly reduced. C. It will make children form a bad habit of sleeping.
D. It will make children sleep easier.
28. What is the purpose of this text?
A. To increase people’s knowledge of watching TV. B. To warn parents of the disadvantages of watching TV.
C. To explain the bad influences that watching TV has on children. D. To correct parents’ wrong ideas of television’s effect on children.
C
Most children are exposed to literature from an early age ,that is , being read books and told stories and, later, kids will go on to read on their own. These stories help children to understand the world, and the characters help teach them how we behave as people. There are several different types of children's literature.
Picture books are for young children or beginning readers. They can either have just pictures, without words, such as “The Snowman” or have pictures with a small amount of text, like in “Where the Wild Things Are”. Picture books often feature repetitive phrases to help children who are learning to read.
