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(自动性)”. 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 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(数量)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. It 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. 小题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 | 小题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 | 小题3: The underlined word “stumble” in the passage means “______” in Chinese.A.结结巴巴地读 | B.全神贯注地读 | C.心不在焉地读 | D.声情并茂地读 | 小题4: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 |

The teacher stood before his class and was going to hand out the final exam papers. ‘I know how you have worked to prepare for this test,’ he said. ‘And because I know you can do it well, I am willing to offer a B to those who prefer not to take the___.’ Many students thanked the teacher and left. The teacher looked at the remaining students and said, ‘Does anyone else want to get a ‘B’? This is your last Two more students decided to go. Seven students remained. The teacher then handed out the papers. There were only three sentences on the paper: Congratulations! You have just been an ‘A’ in this class. Keep believing in . I never had a teacher like that, but I think it is a test that any teacher could give. Students who are not in what they have learned are ‘B’ students at best (充其量). The same is in our daily life. The ‘A’ students are those who believe in what they are doing because they have both successes and failures. They have learned life’s lessons, not only from normal education, from events in their lives, and have become people. You see, one should always believe in himself.

Last Tuesday, after doing all the family shopping in town, I wanted to have a rest before catching the train. So I bought a newspaper and some chocolate and went into a station coffee shop with long tables to sit at. I put my heavy bag down on the floor, put the newspaper and chocolate on the table to keep a place, and went to get a cup of coffee. When I came back with my coffee, there was someone sitting near to me. It was one of those strange-looking young men, with dark glasses, torn clothes, and long hair. But I wasn"t surprised at such a young man. What surprised me most was that he had started to eat my chocolate! I was rather uneasy about him, but I didn"t want to get into trouble. I just looked down at the front page of the newspaper and took a bit of chocolate. The boy looked at me. Then he took a second piece of my chocolate. I could hardly believe it. Still I didn"t say anything. When he took a third one, I felt more angry than uneasy. I thought, "Well, I shall have the last piece." And I got it. The boy gave me a strange look and then stood up. As he left, he shouted out, "This woman is crazy!" Everyone looked at me. That was embarrassing(令人难堪) enough. But it was worse when I finished my coffee and ready to leave. It wasn"t my chocolate I had eaten a moment before. Mine was just under my newspaper. 小题1:The woman telling the story went to town to_______.A.catch the train | B.buy some chocolate and coffee | C.have a rest | D.do some shopping for her family | 小题2:The woman was not happy because_______.A.the train was late | B.she was afraid of the young man | C.she thought the chocolate was hers | D.she couldn"t find her coffee | 小题3:According to the story, who got angry at last?A.The young man | B.The woman | C.Neither of them | D.Both of them | 小题4:The woman found she had made a mistakeA.just after she saw the young man next to her | B.when the young man was leaving | C.after she finished reading her newspaper | D.right before she was about to leave the coffee shop |

There are about fifteen hundred languages in the world。But only a few of them are very important.English is one of these.Many people use it,not only in England and the USA,but also in other parts of the world.About 200,000,000 people speak it as their own language.It is difficult to say how many peopie are learning it as a foreign language.Many millions of people are trying to do so.Is it easy or difficult to learn English?Different people may have different answers.Have you ever noticed ads(广告)of this kind in the newspapers or magazines?“Learn English in six weeks,or give your money back…”,“easy and funny…”,“Our records and tapes help you master English in a month”.Of course,it never happened quite like this.
