举一反三

Reading is thought to be a kind of conversation between the reader and the text．The reader puts questions，as they were．to the text and get answers．In the light of these he puts further questions，and so on．
For most of the time this“conversation”goes on below the level of consciousness．At times，however，we become aware of it．This is usually when we are running into difficulties，when mismatch is occurring between expectations and meaning．When successful matching is being experienced，our questioning of the text continues at the unconscious level．
Different people converse with the text differently．Some stay very close to the words on the page；others take off imaginatively from words，interpreting，criticizing，analyzing and examining．The former represents a kind of comprehension that is written in the text，while the latter represents higher levels of comprehension．The balance between these is important，especially for advanced readers．
There is another conversation that from our point of view is important，and that has not to do with what is read but with how it is read．We call this a“process”conversation as opposed to a“content”，conversation．It is concerned not with meaning but with the strategies we employ in reading．If we are skilled readers，our ability to hold a content conversation with a text is usually pretty well developed．Not so our ability to hold a process conversation．It is just this kind of conversation that is of importance when we are seeking to develop our reading to meet the new demands being placed upon us by studying at a higher level．
40．Reading as a kind of conversation between the reader and the text becomes conscious only when        .
A．the reader’s expectations agree with what is said in the text
B．the reader asks questions and gets answers
C．the reader has trouble understanding what the author says
D．successful matching is occurring
41．At a lower level of comprehension，readers tend to        .
A．read a text slowly
B．read without thinking hard
C．interpret a text in their own way   ．
D．concentrate on the meaning of words only
42．A“process”conversation has to do with        .
A．the development of our ability to check the details
B．determining the main idea of a text
C．what reading material is read
D．the application of reading strategies
43．From the passage we know        .
A．it’s important for readers to have conscious and unconscious levels of comprehension
B．readers should take a critical attitude towards the author’s ideas
C．readers should learn to use different approaches in reading different texts
D．readers should pay more attention to the content of a text

Two teaching staff stood in court last week, in different parts of Britain, each charged with assault (人身侵犯) after attempting to remove a troublemaking student from the classroom. In both cases the men had been suspended(使暂时停职) from their schools and each had spent almost a year waiting for their cases to come to court. One man, Mark Ellwood, was cleared. The other was found guilty. Both cases show the almost impossible position teachers are now in as they try to keep order in schools. They have the responsibility for what goes on in classrooms, but it’s naughty pupils who have the power.
Ellwood was the comparatively lucky one. He was brought in to work with children with behav

ioral difficulties. When he asked a boy to take off his jacket and put away his phone, the pupil threatened to stab（刺） him. Ellwood removed the boy from the clas

s, and when the boy started kicking him, Ellwood swept his feet from under him and lowered him to the ground. Weeks later he was charged with assault. Social services decided that the charge made him a potential risk to any child, so he was ordered to leave his wife and teenage daughters and move out of his home. The judges told him that they hoped he would now forget his nightmare and restart his life.
Sixty-two-year-old Michael Becker is the man who lost his case and will now lose his job. He taught in a special school. On the day of the incident, they were making pinhole cameras when the 15-year-old pupil arrived late. He refused to sit down, and instead walked around the classroom, telling jokes. He ignored several requests to start work and refused to leave the classroom when asked. Eventually Becker seized the boy by his belt and sweatshirt and removed him to a nearby storeroom, with the boy falling down as he struggled to break away. A teaching assistant, sent to check on him a few minutes later, found him sitting in the corridor, clearly unharmed. Becker considered the incident over, but the next day he was suspended as the subject of a police investigation.
Why did two British t

eachers stand in court?
A. Because they were charged with assault on their students.
B. Because they removed a troublemaking student from a classroom.
C. Because they were suspended from their schools.
D. Because they tried to keep order in schools.
According to the passage Ellwood __________.
A. was found guilty and lost his job B. was too strict with his students
C. often punished his students D. was lucky not to lose the case
When the incident happened, Michael Becker __________.
A. lost his case and will lose his job
B. was teaching his students to make pinhole cameras
C. ignored several requests to start work
D. was suspended as the subject of a police investigation
From the two cases we can learn in Britain __________.
A. removing students from the classroom is not allowed
B. teachers have no power to keep order in schools
C. students can do whatever they like in the classroom
D. it’s very difficult to be a teacher

Italians are considered the most handsome men in the world while men who are balding(变秃的) and aging do not necessarily lose their looks, according to an international survey.
A “Male Beauty” survey of nearly 10,000 men and women in 12 countries conducted by market research firm Synovate found that good hygiene (卫生) was actually the top requirement for men to being considered handsome.
The second main requirement to be considered good-looking was confidence, with nearly one fifth of all respondents saying a man must carry himself well, followed by having a “great smile”.
Hair, or a lack of, seemed to have little impact with only one percent of respondents saying that a full head of hair was needed to be handsome.
Older men can also take heart as 60 percent of respondents said a man’s appearance gets better with age, with Americans, Chinese, Greeks and Malaysians agreeing with that the most. “Men are seen like a fine wine – they only get better, which is good news for some of us, ” Bob Michaels, Synovate spokesman, said in a statement.
But looks did also come down to geography. The survey, conducted in October in Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, France, Greece, Malaysia, Russia, South Africa, Spain, Britain and the United States, found Italian men were considered to be the most handsome – even though Italy was not in those countries surveyed. They were followed by men from the United States, Russia and Brazil.
In Spain, more men than women consider having muscles and dressing well to be necessarily requirements, while the opposite was true for Greek women, who were more likely to think a macho (男子气概的) look was appealing. Far more British, French and Australian women also seemed to value “a great smile” than men do.
How many respondents think hair is the necessary requirement for men?
A. 12.           B. 100.
C. 10,000.            D. 60.
According to the survey, the underlined phrase “come down to” can be replaced by “________”.
A. stand for          B. equal to
C. relate to           D. go with
By saying “Men are seen like a fine wine” means “________”.
A. men’s appearances get better as time goes by
B. men are almost addicted to a fine wine
C. drinking fine wine is often seem according to the survey
D. a fine wine can make men look better
What can we learn from the passage?
A. Synovate was one of the respondents from Italy.
B. Russian men were ranking the third place.
C. Having a great smile is the most important for Spanish men.
D. There are 12 countries surveyed, including Italy and Canada.
