第二部分 阅读理解（共两节，每小题2分，满分40分）

第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A. B. C和D)中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

A

A dog, it is said, is a man’s best friend. Put a dog, a kid and a book together, and

you have a struggling reader’s best friend.

The therapy dogs of R.E.A.D. – Reading Education Assistance Dogs – have been helping

children improve their reading skills since 1999, when Intermountain Therapy Animals (ITA)

began the program in Salt Lake City, Utah.

Today, tens of thousands of R.E.A.D. teams – dogs and their owners – volunteer to spend

time with youngsters in schools and libraries across the United States and around the world.

The idea is that sharing a book with a nonjudgmental (不带评论的) partner encourages

students’ confidence and helps develop a love of reading.

Izzy, a Havanese therapy dog, is a regular visitor to Public School 57 in East Harlem,

New York. Students meet him in the library, pick out a book and sit down on the carpet.

Izzy snuggles (依偎) up to them and gets ready to hear a story.

“I love reading to Izzy because he listens to me, and he doesn’t make fun of me when

I make a mistake,” says third-grader Aelane Vasquez. The 9-year-old, whose parents are 4 from Mexico, is one of the 15 Latin-American students at the school who were selected for

the program.

“All the students that we work with in the R.E.A.D. program were behind reading levels

at the beginning of the year,” Bridget McElroy, who teaches English as a Second Language,

explained. “Now most of them have reached the average level, if not above it.” That’s

important, because achieving proficiency(熟练) in reading is vital for kids to succeed.
