The Salt Lake City Public Library is sold on the idea. “Literacy specialists admit that children who read below the level of their fellow pupils are often afraid of reading aloud in a group, often have lower self-respect, and regard reading as a headache,” said Lisa Myron, manager of the children’s department.
Last November the two groups started “Dog Day Afternoon” in the children’s department of the main library. About 25 children attended each of the four Saturday-afternoon classes, reading for half an hour. Those who attended three of the four classes received a “pawgraphed” book at the last class.
The program was so successful that the library plans to repeat it in April, according to Dana Thumpowsky, public relations manager.

试题分析:文中叙述了美国盐湖城的ITA组织认为,由于狗具有闪亮的棕色眼睛、摇摆的尾巴及无条件的爱,它为儿童获取自信心提供了“必要的听众”。利用对狗阅读来帮助儿童提高读写能力是一种独特的教育方法,
小题1:主旨题:短文首句“Reading to dogs is an unusual way to help children improve their literacy skills”是文章的主题句。故最佳选项为D。
小题2:细节题:从第二段的句子:“Literacy specialists admit that children who read below the level of their fellow pupils are often afraid of reading aloud in a group, often have lower self-respect, and regard reading as a headache,”可知专家认为狗可以给害羞的孩子鼓励。选C
小题3:这题是考猜词技巧的,根据上下文的意思,可以知道是这个图书馆接受了这种理念。选B
小题4:猜词题:文段叙述的是孩子们参加“周六下午阅读训练班”的事情。根据常识我们知道,在一个学习活动结束时,通常会对一些先进分子进行表彰或奖励。因此,我们可以作出判断,“Those who attended three of the four classes received a “pawgraphed” book at the last class”这句话的意思应该是:那些参加了四个学习班中三个班的学习的孩子们在参加最后一个班的时候可以得到某种奖励。C选项是正确答案。
点评:全篇形成了“主题句+支撑句+结论句”的模式,读者对文章大意一目了然。这篇文章第一句“Reading to dogs is an unusual way to help children improve their literacy skills.” 就点名主题。接下来是对这一中心思想的解释。第二段是说明The Salt Lake City Public Library 接受这个想法的原因,第三段描述试验过程,最后陈述试验结果。在阅读中,读者只要掌握了这些内容,也就获得了文字的表层理解。

What kind of bags will be the best to bring? Students in Kunming Xinying Middle School have some good ideas.

Eric Freysselinard,the state’s top representative in the area,said he was blocking access to the mountain for public safety reasons to avoid a rush of New Age fanatics(盲信者),sight-seers and media crews.

Mr Freysselinard said the 100 police and firefighters will also control approaches to the tiny village of the same name at the foot of the mountain,and if too many people turn up,they will block access there too.“We are expecting a few people who believe in this end of the world,but in extremely limited numbers,” he said in the. nearby city of Carcassonne.“We are expecting greater numbers of people who are just curious,but in numbers we cannot determine. Above all,we are expecting lots of journalists,”he said.
