举一反三
words and as a result reading is simply not a pleasure. For some students, even reading in their own
language is a chore.
Having a wide vocabulary is essential to making sense of written language. Of course, this is a circular
argument, because the more you read the more vocabulary you learn and the more words you know the
more easily you can read. Don"t make the mistake of reading with your dictionary beside you, looking up
every single new or doubtful word. This is laborious and prevents you from practicing the skill of prediction.
Sometimes in reading you find a word you know but the sense doesn"t seem to fit in. This is not
surprising because words have so many meanings and degrees of meaning. What is more, part of their
meaning is shaped by the words around them. Keep looking at the surrounding words and asking yourself
"what sort of meaning would make sense here?"
The more that people study the reading process, the better they can pass on to language learners a range
of advice to choose from. People have learned to read in all kinds of ways. Here is some information that
could help you plan to be a better reader in the foreign language you are studying.
1) Work out the general meaning first
When people read in a new language they often feel they must take a detailed approach, focusing in every
word, particularly those they don"t know. They read as if they were using a microscope, looking carefully
at each of the small pieces (the individual words), but not necessarily seeing the whole picture at first. This is
called the "bottom-up" approach. Other readers try to look first at the big picture(the "top-down" approach),
attending to individual bricks only as necessary, a process that involves some intelligent guesswork. Generally
this second approach is recommended by successful learners.
2) Interactive reading
Another way of thinking about reading is to describe it as an interactive process, where the text brings
something to you and you bring something to the text. Readers bring together all their knowledge of the
world with what they see on the page in front of them. That is why, when reading in our own language,
we don"t need to read every word. We add meaning which is not actually stated.
3) From supported reading to independent reading
Language learners start by needing considerable support as they read. Textbooks supply this support
in the form of introductions that summaries the contents, glossaries, pictures, explanations of new
grammar points. In your reading you need to move gradually from this support to reading more the text itself.
B. reading more promotes the gaining of vocabulary
C. the more you read, the clearer the meaning is
D. the amount of vocabulary is the key to reading
B. looking carefully at each of the small pieces
C. focusing on every word
D. "bottom-up" approach
B. a difficult and tiring thing
C. an easy question
D. something special
B. keep looking at the surrounding words
C. look it up in the dictionary each time
D. make sense of it with the help of dictionary
in honor of the dead, scientists said yesterday. New evidence unearthed at the World Heritage Site in more
than 40 years suggests that the monument was a place where the diseased and injured went in groups,
seeking cures.
After a two-week dig, scientists have concluded that Stonehenge was "the ancient healthcare centre of
southern England" because of the existence of "bluestones"-the smaller columns of dolerite (辉绿岩) that
formed an earlier stone structure.
By dating pieces of remains to around 7330BC, Tim Darvill, of Bournemouth University, and Goff
Wainwright, of the Society of Amtiquaries have found that hunter-gatherers were at the site on Salisbury
Plain 4,000 years earlier than thought. The first stage of Stonehenge, a round earthwork structure, was
built around 3000BC. Professor Wainwright added: "I did not expect the degree of complexity we discovered.
We"re able to say so much more about when Stonehenge was built and why-all of which changes our
previous understanding of the monument."
The research reveals the importance of the henge"s famous bluestones. Hundreds of bluestone chips
gathered at the site have led the team to conclude that the bluestones were valued for their curing effects-the
key reason that about 80 of them, each weighing up to 4 tons and a half, were dragged more than 150 miles
from the Preseli Hills to Wiltshire. After years of research, Professors Darvill and Wainwright have
concluded that, for thousands of years, the Preseli mountain range was home to magical health centers and
holy wells.
Even today there are those who believe in the curing powers of the springs for coughs and heart disease,
and people who use crystals and bluestones for self-curing. Radiocarbon tests have also revealed that the
construction of the original bluestone circle took place around 2300BC, three centuries later than originally
thought. Interestingly, on the same day died the "Amesbury Archer"-a sick traveler from the Swiss or
German Alps who had an infected knee-whose remains were discovered about five miles from Stonehenge.
The professors believe that he was a devoted religious person who was hoping to benefit from the curing
powers of the monument.
B. to observe star movements
C. to hold religious ceremonies
D. to gather huge bluestones
B. The new discovery was the same as what had been expected.
C. Some huge bluestones were not produced at Stonehenge.
D. The original bluestone circle was thought to be constructed around 2000BC.
B. one of the earliest discoverers of Stonehenge
C. the first explorer to test the magical power of bluestones
D. a patient trying to cure his infection at Stonehenge
B. Stonehenge: Still Making News
C. Stonehenge: Heaven for Adventurers
D. Stonehenge: Still Curing Patients
a preschooler:
Develop social skills
As children play pretend, they explore relationships between family members, friends and co-workers and
learn more about how people interact. Playing doctor, they imagine how physicians care for their patients.
Playing house, they learn more about how parents feel about their children. Imaginative play helps develop
empathy for others. If children can imagine how it feels to be left out of a game or to lose a pet, they are better
able to help those in need. They become more willing to play fair, to share, and to cooperate.
Build self-confidence
Young children have very little control over their lives. Imagining oneself as a builder of skyscrapers or a
superhero defending the planet is empowering to a child. It helps them develop confidence in their abilities and
their potential.
Boost intellectual growth
Using the imagination is the beginning of abstract thought. Children who can see a king"s castle in a mound
of sand or a delicious dinner in a mud pie are learning to think symbolically. This skill is important in school
where a child will have to learn that numerals symbolize groups of objects, letters symbolize sounds, and so on.
Practice language skills
Kids who play pretend with their friends do a lot of talking. This helps boost their vocabulary, improve
sentence structure and enhance communication skills.
Work out fears
Playing pretend can help children work out their fears and worries. When children role-play about the big,
bad monster under the bed, they gain a sense of control over him and he doesn"t seem quite so big or so bad.
Imaginative play also helps kids vent confusing feelings they might have, such as anger toward a parent or
rivalry(竞争) with a new sibling (兄弟姐妹).
To encourage your youngster"s imagination, read to him every day. Books offer children the opportunity to
visit other worlds and create new ones of their own.
For generations children have enjoyed reading the story of Peter Pan because Peter takes them on

time and have it at the same time every day. This will help your kid to learn to schedule their day and will
give them a sense of control over how they spend their time.
Allow them to study in block of time, such as for half an hour with a five-minute break in the middle.
2 Ideal (理想的) study times are after dinner or right after school before dinner. Never allow your
children to study in front of the television, as that will encourage passive activity. 3
4 You"ll also need to help your kids find the right place to study. After you"ve set up a good study time
for little learners, set up a good place where they can get those creative juices flowing.
Make sure there is a table or a desk and a comfortable chair.
5 This includes helping them out with their homework sometimes and being there for them with the
answers to any questions. The input you give your children during study periods will help form a bond and
help make studying enjoyable.
B. Hold them to the schedule they create for themselves.
C. Finally, spend time with your kids when they"re studying.
D. Keep the atmosphere light and offer lots of encouragement, too.

F. Try to stop this bad habit by offering some sort of reward.
G. One of the best ways to from good study habits for your kids is to design a schedule that they keep to.
cognitive (认知) abilities through well-designed training. Everyone experiences some degree of memory
loss and cognitive decline as they get older. The decline usually becomes noticeable after 50, when
people may find it slightly more difficult to focus on tasks, organize everyday jobs and remember how
to do things in the right order.
A team of psychologists (心理学家) in Toronto created a strategy (策略) of cognitive training to help
people preserve these abilities."Our primary emphasis was on improving the use of general strategic abilities
because they are particularly weak to the aging process," Dr. Donald Stuss, director of the study, said in
a press release. The team examined 49 healthy older adults with normal cognitive decline. All of the
participants were between the ages of 71 and 87. Over the course of 12 weeks, psychologists taught them
methods to improve their strategic abilities. Afterwards, researchers saw a 15 to 40 percent improvement
in the memories of all participants."Over a period of six months their improvement not only maintained, but
increased," said Dr. Gordon Winocur, coordinator of the study.
The 12-week course was broken up into three four-week sections, focusing on a different skill involved
in strategic abilities: memory, goal management and psychosocial function.
The memory training emphasized how to preserve and recover information, while goal management
focused on methods to lower the chance of memory slips. Psychosocial training was aimed at increasing
the participants" confidence in their mental abilities.
"We wanted to develop a cognitive training program that would produce improvement over a relatively
short period of time, so participants could benefit more on that while they"re still functional and slow down
the rate of decline," said Winocur. "If we can work with people in the early stages of cognitive decline, then
we can slow down the rate of this decline and help them maintain a higher level of function for a longer period
of time."
B. A new way to develop a good memory.
C. Cognitive abilities are essential to memory.
D. Say no to the memory decline.
B. Psychosocial function.
C. General strategic abilities.
D. Goal management.
B. kept
C. changed
D. improved
B. Three.
C. Four.
D. Five.
B. the training can prevent one"s memory from declining
C. the earlier they begin the training, the better the result will be
D. Winocur aims to help aging people suffer less from memory loss and cognitive decline
