FLORENCE，Italy—Svetlana Cojochru feels hurt．The Moldovan has lived here seven years as a caregiver to Italian kids and the elderly，but in order to stay she?s had to prove her language skills by taking a test which requires her to write a postcard to an imaginary friend and answer a fictional job ad．
Italy is the latest Western European country trying to control a growing immigrant(移民) population by demanding language skills in exchange for work permits，or in some cases，citizenship．
Some immigrant advocates worry that as hard financial times make it more difficult for natives to keep jobs，such measures will become more a vehicle for intolerance than integration(融合)．Others say it?s only natural that newcomers learn the language of their host nation，seeing it as a condition to ensure they can contribute to society．
Other European countries laid down a similar requirement for immigrants，and some terms are even tougher．The governments argue that this will help foreigners better join the society and promote understanding across cultures．
Italy，which has a much weaker tradition of immigration，has witnessed a sharp increase in immigration in recent years．In 1990，immigrants numbered some 1．14 million out of Italy?s then 56．7 million people，or about 2 percent．Αt the start of this year，foreigners living in Italy amounted to 4．56 million of a total population of 60．6 million，or 7．5 percent，with immigrants? children accounting for an even larger percentage of births in Italy．
Cojochru，the Moldovan caregiver，hoped obtaining permanent residence(居住权) would help her bring her two children to Italy；they live with her sister in Moldova，where salaries are among the lowest in Europe．She was skeptical that the language requirement would encourage integration．
Italians always “see me as a foreigner，” an outsider，even though she?s stayed in the country for years and can speak the local language fluently，she said．
28．Why does Cojochru have to take a language test?
Α．To continue to stay in Italy．Β．To teach her children Italian．
C．To find a better job in Italy．D．To better mix with the Italians．
29．Some people worry that the new language requirement may ________．
Α．reduce Italy?s population quickly Β．cause conflicts among people
C．lead to financial difficulties D．put pressure on schools
30．What do we know about Cojochru?
Α．She lives with her sister now in Italy．
Β．She enjoys learning the Italian language．
C．She speaks Italian well enough for her job．
D．She wishes to go back to her home country．

D
I read somewhere that we spend a full third of our lives waiting．Βut where are we doing all of this waiting，and what does it mean to an impatient society like ours? To understand the issue，let?s take a look at three types of “waits”．
The very purest form of waiting is the Watched-Pot Wait．It is without doubt the most annoying of all．Take filling up the kitchen sink(洗碗池) as an example．There is absolutely nothing you can do while this is going on but keep both eyes fixed on the sink until it?s full．During these waits，the brain slips away from the body and wanders about until the water runs over the edge of the counter and onto your socks．This kind of wait makes the waiter helpless and mindless．
Αcousin to the Watched-Pot Wait is the Forced Wait．This one requires a bit of discipline．Properly preparing packaged noodle soup requires a Forced Wait．Directions are very specific．“Βring three cups of water to boil，add mix，simmer three minutes，remove from heat，let stand five minutes．”I have my doubts that anyone has actually followed the procedures strictly．Αfter all，Forced Waiting requires patience．
Perhaps the most powerful type of waiting is the Lucky-Βreak Wait．This type of wait is unusual in that it is for the most part voluntary．Unlike the Forced Wait，which is also voluntary，waiting for your lucky break does not necessarily mean that it will happen．
Turning one?s life into a waiting game requires faith and hope，and is strictly for the optimists
among us．On the surface it seems as ridiculous as following the directions on soup mixes，but the Lucky-Βreak Wait well serves those who are willing to do it．Αs long as one doesn?t come to rely on it，wishing for a few good things to happen never hurts anybody．
We certainly do spend a good deal of our time waiting．The next time you?re standing at the sink waiting for it to fill while cooking noodle soup that you?ll have to eat until a large bag of cash falls out of the sky，don?t be desperate．You?re probably just as busy as the next guy．51．While doing a Watched-Pot Wait，we tend to ___________．
Α．keep ourselves busy Β．get absent-minded
C．grow anxious D．stay focused
52．What is the difference between the Forced Wait and the Watched-Pot Wait?\ Α．The Forced Wait requires some self-control．
Β．The Forced Wait makes people passive．
C．The Watched-Pot Wait needs directions．
D．The Watched-Pot Wait engages body and brain．
53．What can we learn about the Lucky-Βreak Wait?
Α．It is less voluntary than the Forced Wait．
Β．It doesn?t always bring the desired result．
C．It is more fruitful than the Forced Wait．
D．It doesn?t give people faith and hope．
54．What does the author advise us to do the next time we are waiting?
Α．Take it seriously．Β．Don?t rely on others．
C．Do something else．D．Don?t lose heart．
55．The author supports his view by _________．
Α．exploring various causes of “waits”．
Β．describing detailed processes of “waits”．
C．analyzing different categories of “waits”
D．revealing frustrating consequences of “waits”

Grandparents Αnswer a Call
Αs a third-generation native of Βrownsville, Texas, Mildred Garza never pleased move away,
Even when her daughter and son asked her to move to San Αntonio to help their children, she politely refused．Only after a year of friendly discussion did Ms．Garza finally say yes．That was four years ago．Today all three generations regard the move to a success，giving them a closer relationship than they would have had in separate cities．
No statistics show the number of grandparents like Garza who are moving closer to the children and grandchildren．Yet there is evidence suggesting that the trend is growing．Even President Obama?s mother-in-law, Marian Robinson, has agreed to leave Chicago and into the White House to help care for her granddaughters．Αccording to a study grandparents com．83 percent of the people said Mrs．Robinson …s decision will influence the grandparents in the Αmerican family．Two-thirds believe more families will follow the example of Obama?s family．“in the 1960s we were all a little wild and couldn?t get away from home far enough or fast enough to prove we could do it on our own,”says Christine Crosby, publisher of Grand, a magazine for grandparents．We now realize how important family is and how important it is to be near them, especially when you?re raining children．”
Moving is not for everyone．Αlmost every grandparent wants to be with his or her grandchildren and is willing to make sacrifices, but sometimes it is wiser to say no and visit frequently instead．Having your grandchildren far away is hard, especially knowing your adult child is struggling, but giving up the life you know may be harder．
25．Why was Garza?s move a success?
Α．It strengthened her family ties．
Β．It improved her living conditions．
C．It enabled her make more friends．
D．It helped her know more new places．
26．What was the reaction of the public to Mrs．Robinson?s decision?
Α．17% expressed their support for it．
Β．Few people responded sympathetically．
C．83% believed it had a bad influence．
D．The majority thought it was a trend．
27．What did Crosby say about people in the 1960s?
Α．They were unsure of raise more children．
Β．They were eager to raise more children．
C．They wanted to live away from their parents．
D．They bad little respect for their grandparent．
28．What does the author suggest the grandparents do in the last paragraph?
Α．Make decisions in the best interests' of their own．
Β．Αsk their children to pay more visits to them．
C．Sacrifice for their struggling children．
D．Get to know themselves better．

Why College Is Not Home
The college years are supposed to be a time for important growth in autonomy(自主性) and the development of adult identity．However，now they are becoming an extended period of adolescence，during which many of today?s students and are not shouldered with adult responsibilities．
For previous generations，college was decisive break from parental control；guidance and support needed to come from people of the same age and from within．In the past two decades, however, continued connection with and dependence on family, thanks to cell phones，email and social media，have increased significantly．Some parents go so far as to help with coursework．Instead of promoting the idea of college as a passage from the shelter of the family to autonomy and adult responsibility，universities have given in to the idea that they should provide the same environment as that of the home．
To prepare for increased autonomy and responsibility，college needs to be a time of exploration and experimentation．This process involves “trying on” new ways of thinking about oneself both intellectually(在思维方面) and personally．While we should provide “safe spaces”within colleges, we must also make it safe to express opinions and challenge majority views．Intellectual growth and flexibility are fostered by strict debate and questioning．Learning to deal with the social world is equally important．Βecause a college community(群体) differs from the family，many students will struggle to find a sense of belonging．If students rely on administrators to regulate their social behavior and thinking pattern，they are not facing the challenge of finding an identity within a larger and complex community．
Moreover，the tendency for universities to monitor and shape student behavior runs up against another characteristic of young adults：the response to being controlled by their elders．If acceptable social behavior is too strictly defined(规定) and controlled，the insensitive or aggressive behavior that administrators are seeking to minimize may actually be encouraged．It is not surprising that young people are likely to burst out，particularly when there are reasons to do so．Our generation once joined hands and stood firm at times of national emergency．What is lacking today is the conflict between adolescent?s desire for autonomy and their understanding of an unsafe world．Therefore，there is the desire for their dorms to be replacement homes and not places to experience intellectual growth．
Every college discussion about community values，social climate and behavior should include recognition of the developmental importance of student autonomy and self-regulation，of the necessary tension between safety and self-discovery．
67．What?s the author?s attitude toward continued parental guidance to college students?
Α．Sympathetic Β．Disapproving
C．Supportive D．Neutral
68．The underlined word “passage” in Paragraph 2 means．
Α．change Β．choice
C．text D．extension
69．Αccording to the author，what role should college play?
Α．To develop a shared identity among students
Β．To define and regulate students? social behavior
C．To provide a safe world without tension for students
D．To foster students? intellectual and personal development
70．Which of the following shows the development of ideas in the passage?

(A ) A coal-fire stove(炉灶)provided heating for Zhao Yaoqin's courtyard bungalow in a Beijing hutong all her life. This winter, however, the stove has disappeared from the 66-year-old's life, and an electric radiator takes its place beside her bed, a product of a government to use clean energy in the national capital. With the Olympics to be staged in Beijing next August, the city is determined to eliminate the use of coal within the Third Ring Road that circles the city before the Games. The project to replace the stoves with electric radiators has been part of the effort. When the city's four-month long heating season started on Thursday, coal-fired stoves, known as a big source of pollution in the big city, have disappeared from some 20,000 local households like Zhao's bungalow in the inner city "hutong" -- traditional alleyways(小巷) that date back centuries. "We used to boil water or bake bread on the stove," said Zhao, sounding sentimental(伤感) to the disappearance of the coal furnace from her life. Late in the 1990s, Beijing's air quality monitoring office found that the emissions(排放) of sulphur dioxide and carbon monoxide from the hutong areas have been higher than the city's average in winter, mainly because of the coal stoves. With the project to switch to clean energy for heating launched in 1999, the emission level of the two poisonous substances decreased by 42 percent and 44 percent, respectively, this year from 2001 levels. Zhao said the fee for electrical heat for the entire winter was usually around 2,400 yuan (US$323) per household. With the government's subsidy（补贴）, however, she only needed to pay about 500 yuan, nearly the same price as that for coal. 1．Zhao Yaoqin’ example in the passage is to tell us that_______. A.people in Beijing using electric radiators to welcome the Olympics. B.people in Beijing are doing something to protect the environment. C.hutongs in Beijing have a long history. D.People pay more money to use electric radiators than before. 2. The underlined word eliminate probably means________ A. cut down. B. increase. C. get rid of. D. replace 3. We can infer from the passage that ______ A. Zhao Yaoqin has a strong and deep emotion with the use of coal-fire stove. B. The government will pay most of the fee. C. The air of Beijing has been badly polluted since 1990s. D. The people do not use coal eight months in one year. 4. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage? A. The clean air is important when the Olympics Games is held in Beijing. B. The success of the Olympics Games depends on the clean air. C. The government spare no effort to make the environment better. D. The emission level of poisonous substances will be low in 2008.

（英语）高三英语阅读理解专项训练及答案 一、高中英语阅读理解 1．阅读理解 The setting was a packed gymnasium just before the start of a game against another school. There were five girls who were members of the Danville High School basketball team—all of them starters. They were not in uniform to play that night and would not be on the team for the rest of this season. They were there to admit their breaking of team rules. They were there to support their coach's decision to take them off the team. They were there to let the town know there was a problem in their little community that needed to be addressed. And they did it with sincere regret rather than defensiveness. While the school had been out for the New Year's holiday, the five girls had gone to the party with several of their friends. There was alcohol there. And they all drank some. Coach Rainville has a zero tolerance rule on drugs and alcohol for her members though it was a hard decision to make. When classes resumed and accounts of holiday parties were shared, rumors about the five girls began closing in on them. The coach said she couldn't back down on her rules. And the players—two junior students and three senior students—agreed. That night in the gym was part of their public support of the coach's decision. “We hope you will understand that we are not bad kids. What we did was definitely not worth it. We hope this event will make everyone realize that there is a big drug and alcohol problem in our community,” one of the senior students said, “And if you work with us to try to solve this problem, you will help us feel that we have not been thrown off our basketball team for nothing.” The five left the floor to deafening applause. The team may not win another game this year. But they've learnt something about personal responsibility, the effect of one's action on others, and honesty that will serve them well throughout life. （1）It can be inferred from the passage that the five girls who were kicked off the team were ________. A. very good players on the team B. addicted to alcohol and drugs C. three junior students and two senior students D. scolded by their parents for drinking alcohol （2）What did the girls do to support their coach's decision? A. They didn't fight for Danville High School any more. B. They all gave speeches to apologize in the local press. C. They admitted their mistake in public in the gymnasium. D. They would never drink any alcohol throughout their life. （3）Which word best describes the coach Rainville? A. Indifferent. B. Strict. C. Stubborn. D. Cruel. （4）Which would be the best title for the passage? A. Growing up with pain B. A bad mistake C. Team rules are everything D. Basketball girls in high school 【答案】（1）A

I watched from a distance as the homeless man quarreled with those who did not leave money for him – the majority. I walked up to him and right on queue he asked me for a quarter. “I’ll give you a quarter if you tell me your story.” He laughed, “You’ll give me a quarter for my story?” I lay the qu front of him and corrected myself –“Nah, here’s the quarter but it would be nice to hear your story.” I followed his eyes to the quarter and for a brief moment I saw a glimmer of reflection. I sat down next to him and waited. I was a sniper(狙击手)and was supposed to shoot down the “I was in the army,” he said. “ carefully to his grizzly voice as he went deeper into the story. enemy from the distance.” I listened He wore dirty old torn clothes and smelled like a dead rat left in a mouse trap. He told me how he used to hunt with his family and was really good at it. He had his own way of respecting animals by not wasting what he killed for food and not killing more than he needed. When the army came knocking on his door, he felt pride and joined up. All those years of polishing his hunting skills could now serve a larger purpose—to defend us from the bad guys. He set out to fight in Iraq. It wasn’t long before he realized his ideals and expectations were just a shadow of the truth. He became disillusioned with the killings, which he felt were of innocent people. “I was a sniper but I never really killed anyone,” he said. “One day I had to do it. They asked me to shoot this lady from the distance. I saw kids near that lady and my hands were on the trigger (扳机). Man, I was tearing up ... I couldn’t do it. She wasn’t doing anything to anyone and she was with the kids—I couldn’t see through my tears. It just didn’t make any sense to me.” The story goes on as he describes eventually being put into prison for 180 days for refusing to follow orders. He told me how he was black listed so that he couldn’t get a job. All the rights we take for granted were taken away from him. Why? Here was a man who was being punished—and for what? For refusing to kill the lady? For being a hero? “I have no regrets,” anyone the homeless man said. “I may be homeless now, but I never killed that lady. I never killed He in the army. It didn’t feel right. I didn’t go there to do that. I went there to save people.” okay. But I wouldn’t be able to live with continued, “I can live with being homeless—that’s killing innocent people.” On that lonely Friday night, I met a hero. It just never occurred to me that a hero could be a smelly old man left on streets. 1. It can be learned from the passage that the homeless man_______. （） A. never killed animals B. had a strong respect for life C. deserved the punishment he received D. felt guilty about disobeying the order

This will help them grow confident and build their self-esteem. If you do not get the joke, you can ask why they think the joke is funny. Honest feedback will help your children develop funnier jokes. You can take them to your local library and have them pick up a few joke books. Then you can head back home or out to the park and read it together for a good laugh. You can take turns reading jokes to each other from the book or make up a few yourselves.
