Reading Tasks(20’)Passage One:Reading is thought to be a kind of conversation between the reader and the text. The reader puts questions, as it were, to the text and gets 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 time, however, we become aware of it. This is usually 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 the words, interpreting, criticizing, analyzing and examining. The former represents a king of comprehension, which is written in the text. The latter represents higher levels of comprehension. The balance between these is important, especially for advanced readers.There is another conversation which from our point of view is equally important, and that is to do not 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 advanced 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 precisely 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.31. 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 has trouble understanding what the author says.C) the reader asks questions and gets answers.D) the reader understands a text very well.32. At a lower level of comprehension, readers tend to________________________.A) read a text slowlyB) read without thinking hardC) interpret a text in their own wayD.) concentrate on the meaning of words only.33. A “process” conversation has to do with ________________________.A.) the application of reading strategiesB) matching our expectations with the meaning of a textC) the development of our ability to check the detailsD) determining the main idea of a text.34. According to the passage, it is of great importance for readers at a higherlevel to maintain a balance between __________________________.A) conscious and unconscious levels of comprehensionB) the readers’ expectations and the meaning of a textC.) lower and higher level of comprehensionD) interpreting and criticizing a text35. If we want to develop our reading ability at an advanced level, we should___________.A.) learn to use different approaches in reading different textB) make our reading process more consciousC) pay more attention to the content of a textD) take a critical attitude towards the author’s ideaPassage Two:We find that bright children are rarely held back by mixed ability teaching. On the contrary, both their knowledge and experience are enriched. We feel that there are many disadvantages in streaming pupils. It does not take into account the fact that children develop at different rates. It can have a bad effect on both the bright and the not-so-bright child. After all, it can be quite discouraging to be at the bottom of the top grade!Besides, it is rather unreal to grade people just according to their intellectual ability. This is only one aspect of their total personality. We are concerned to develop the abilities of all our pupils to the full, not just their academic ability. We also value personal qualities and social skills, and we find that mixed-ability teaching contributes to all these aspects of learning.In our classrooms, we work in various ways. The pupils often work in groups: this gives them the opportunity to learn to co-operate, to share, and to develop leadership skills. They also learn how to cope with personal problems as well as learning how to think, to make decisions, to analyze and evaluate, and tocommunicate effectively. The pupils learn from each other as well as from the teacher.Sometimes the pupils work in pairs; sometimes they work on individual tasks and assignments, and they can do this at their own speed. They also have some formal class teaching when this is appropriate. We encourage our pupils to use the library, and we teach them the skills they need in order to do this efficiently. An advanced pupil can do advanced work: it does not matter what age the child is. We expect our pupils to do their best, not their least, and we give them every encouragement to attain this goal.36. In the passage the author’s attitude towards “mixed-ability teaching” is ________.A) criticalB) questioningC.) approvingD) objective37. B y “held back” (Line 1) the author means “________”A) made to remain in the same classesB) forced to study I the lower classesC) drawn to their studiesD.) prevented from advancing38. The author argues that a teacher’s chief concern should be the d evelopment ofthe student’s ________.A) personal qualities and social skillsB.) total personalityC) learning ability and communicative skillsD) intellectual ability39. Which of the following is NOT MENTIONED in the third paragraph?A) Group work gives pupils the opportunity to learn to work together with other.B) Pupils also learn to develop their reasoning abilities.C) Group work provides pupils with the opportunity to learn to be capableorganizers.D.) Pupils also learn how to participate in teaching activities.40. The author’s purpose in writing this passage is to ________.A.) argue for teaching bright and not-so-bright pupils in the same classB) recommend pair work and group work for classroom activitiesC) offer advice on the proper use of the libraryD) emphasize the importance of appropriate formal classroom teachingIII. Translation (20’)Translate the following sentences from Chinese into English.41. （我们房间的钥匙被系在…上）a large plastic block with the room number on it.42. Our task in China was to (揭示中国人对创造性活动的态度).43. The child is neither old enough nor clever enough to(独自完成要做的动作).44. But assuming that the contrast I have developed is valid, and that(培养技艺与创造力两者都是值得追求的目标)45.(关键在于，在这个过程中，我们试图让本杰明懂得，一个人是能够很好地自行解决问题的)46. So long as the child is shown exactly how to do something,(那他就不太可能自行想办法去弥补错误行为)。

Reading Tasks(20’)Passage One:Reading is thought to be a kind of conversation between the reader and the text. The reader puts questions, as it were, to the text and gets 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 time, however, we become aware of it. This is usually 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 the words, interpreting, criticizing, analyzing and examining. The former represents a king of comprehension, which is written in the text. The latter represents higher levels of comprehension. The balance between these is important, especially for advanced readers.There is another conversation which from our point of view is equally important, and that is to do not 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 advanced 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 precisely 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.31. 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 has trouble understanding what the author says.C) the reader asks questions and gets answers.D) the reader understands a text very well.32. At a lower level of comprehension, readers tend to________________________.A) read a text slowlyB) read without thinking hardC) interpret a text in their own wayD.) concentrate on the meaning of words only.33. A “process” conversation has to do with ________________________.A.) the application of reading strategiesB) matching our expectations with the meaning of a textC) the development of our ability to check the detailsD) determining the main idea of a text.34. According to the passage, it is of great importance for readers at a higherlevel to maintain a balance between __________________________.A) conscious and unconscious levels of comprehensionB) the readers’ expectations and the meaning of a textC.) lower and higher level of comprehensionD) interpreting and criticizing a text35. If we want to develop our reading ability at an advanced level, we should___________.A.) learn to use different approaches in reading different textB) make our reading process more consciousC) pay more attention to the content of a textD) take a critical attitude towards the author’s ideaPassage Two:We find that bright children are rarely held back by mixed ability teaching. On the contrary, both their knowledge and experience are enriched. We feel that there are many disadvantages in streaming pupils. It does not take into account the fact that children develop at different rates. It can have a bad effect on both the bright and the not-so-bright child. After all, it can be quite discouraging to be at the bottom of the top grade!Besides, it is rather unreal to grade people just according to their intellectual ability. This is only one aspect of their total personality. We are concerned to develop the abilities of all our pupils to the full, not just their academic ability. We also value personal qualities and social skills, and we find that mixed-ability teaching contributes to all these aspects of learning.In our classrooms, we work in various ways. The pupils often work in groups: this gives them the opportunity to learn to co-operate, to share, and to develop leadership skills. They also learn how to cope with personal problems as well as learning how to think, to make decisions, to analyze and evaluate, and tocommunicate effectively. The pupils learn from each other as well as from the teacher.Sometimes the pupils work in pairs; sometimes they work on individual tasks and assignments, and they can do this at their own speed. They also have some formal class teaching when this is appropriate. We encourage our pupils to use the library, and we teach them the skills they need in order to do this efficiently. An advanced pupil can do advanced work: it does not matter what age the child is. We expect our pupils to do their best, not their least, and we give them every encouragement to attain this goal.36. In the passage the author’s attitude towards “mixed-ability teaching” is ________.A) criticalB) questioningC.) approvingD) objective37. B y “held back” (Line 1) the author means “________”A) made to remain in the same classesB) forced to study I the lower classesC) drawn to their studiesD.) prevented from advancing38. The author argues that a teacher’s chief concern should be the d evelopment ofthe student’s ________.A) personal qualities and social skillsB.) total personalityC) learning ability and communicative skillsD) intellectual ability39.

Pupils also learn how to participate in teaching activities.40. The author’s purpose in writing this passage is to ________.A.) argue for teaching bright and not-so-bright pupils in the same classB) recommend pair work and group work for classroom activitiesC) offer advice on the proper use of the libraryD) emphasize the importance of appropriate formal classroom teachingIII.

III．仔细阅读(20’)Passage 1Someday a siranger will read your e-mail without your permission or scan the website you’ve visited. Or perhaps someone will casually glance through your credit card purchases or cell phone bills to find out your shopping preferences or calling habits.In fact, it’s likely some of these things have already happened to you. Who would watch you without your permission? It might be a spouse, a girlfriend, a marketing company, a boss, a cop or a criminal. Whoever it is, they will see you in a way you never intended to be seen --- the 21st century equivalent of being caught naked.Psychologists tell us boundaries are healthy, that it’s important to reveal yourself to friends, family and lovers in stages, at appropriate times. But few boundaries remain. The digital bread crumbs ( ) you leave everywhere make it easy for strangers to reconstruct who you are, where you are and what you like. In some cases, a simple Google search can reveal what you think. Like it or not, increasingly we live in a world where you simply cannot keep a secret.The key question is : Does that matter?For many Americans, the answer apparently is “no.”When opinion polls ask Americans about privacy, most say they are concerned about losing it.A survey found an overwhelming pessimism about privacy, with 60 percent of respondents saying they feel their privacy is “slipping away,and that bothers me.”But people say one thing and do another. Only a tiny fraction of Americans change anybehaviors in an effort to preserve their privacy. Few people turn down a discount at tollbooths ( ) to avoid using the EZ-Pass system that can track automobile movements. And few turn down supermarket loyalty cards. Privacy economist Alessandro Acquisti has run a series of tests that reveal people will surrender personal information like Social Security numbers just to get their hands on a pitiful 50-cents-off coupon ( ) .But privacy does matter--- at least sometimes. It’s like health: when you have it, you don’t notice it. Only when it’s gone do you wish you’d done more to protect it.1.What does the author mean by saying “the 21st century equivalent of being caught naked”(Lines 4, Para. 2)?A.People’s personal information is easily accessed without their knowledge.B.In the 21st century people try every means to look into others’ secrets.C.People tend to be more frank with each other in the information age.D.Criminals are easily caught on the spot with advanced technology.2.What would psychologists advise on the relationships between friends?A.Friends should open their hearts to each other.B.Friends should always be faithful to each other.C.There should be a distance even between friends.D.There should be fewer disputes between friends.3.Why does the author say “we live in a world where you simply cannot keep a secret” (Line 5,Para. 3)?A.Modern society has finally evolved into an open society.B.People leave traces around when using modern technology.C.There are always people who are curious about others’ affairs.D.Many search engines profit by revealing people’s identities.4.What do most Americans do with regard to privacy protection?A.They change behaviors that might disclose their identity.B.They use various loyalty cards for business transactions.C.They rely most and more on electronic devices.D.They talk a lot but hardly do anything about it.5.According to the passage, privacy is like health in that ________.A.people will make every effort to keep itB.its importance is rarely understoodC.it is something that can easily be lostD.people don’t cherish it until they lose it.Passage 2Do you forget to turn off the lights and heaters when you go out of a room? In 2040 it will not matter. They will turn themselves off--- and on again when you return. You will choose the temperature for each room , the lighting and the humidity. A sensor will detect the presence of a human (and, with lich, ignore the dog!) and turn the systems on, and when the humans leave, it will turn them off again.The sensors will work through the central home computer, and they will do much more than just turn the fires and lights on and off for you. They will detect faulty electrical appliances, plugs or switches, isolate them so that they cannot harm anyone, and then warn you that they need repair. They will detect fire and if you are out of the house, the computer will call the faire brigade. It will also call the police should the sensors detect an intruder. This will not be very difficult because the locks on the outside doors will be electronic. You’ll open them using your personal card--- the one you use for shopping--- maybe using a number known only to you.It will be impossible to lose the key, and a house breaker will have to tamper( ) with the lock or with a window. It is not very difficult to make such tampering send a signal to the computer.The computer will be more than a fireman-policeman-servant. It will be an entertainer, and most of your entertainment will come right into your home. It does now, of course, but by 2040 “entertainment” will mean much more. For on e thing, you will be able to take part actively, rather than just waiting.6.The author intends to tell us that in 2040 _________.A.we will live without the lights and heatersB.we will use many more lights and heatersC.lights and heaters will go on and off automaticallyD.there will be no switches of lights and heaters7.Which of the following statements is NOT true?A.You can be taken for an intruder if you tamper with the lock or with a window.B.The sensor will detect fire and put it out.C.Without a computer, the sensor cannot do much.D.The sensor is multi-functional.8.According to the author, in 2040 new technology will _______.A. turn everything into sensorsB. free us from the keys we use todayC. make the locks out of dateD. eliminate all crimes9.Thanks to computers, in 2040 people will ________.A. have no entertainment outsideB. replace TV with computersC. be controlled by computersD. have more fun at home10.The best title for the passage might be “_____________”.A.

Though how the English language came into existence remains a mystery to manypeople，linguists believe that English and most other European languages have descended from a common source: the Indo-European parent language. English was first spoken by the Anglo-Saxons who invaded England in the fifth century. They passed onto us the basic vocabulary of English. In over fifteen centuries of its development, English has enriched itself by massive borrowing. As British immigrants landed in America and established the United States as an independent nation, a new variety was added to the English language : American English. Though some people worry that the language is running out of control, many native speakers of English take pride in the tolerance of their language.★Text BComprehension Check: c c c d b dLanguage Practice1. g e d c b h f a2. 1) give way to 2) predict 3) substantial 4) integrate 5) in transition 6) aspect7) to name a few 8) authority 9) dominate 10) had contributed to 11) unique12) rid yourself ofUnit 8VocabularyI. 1) barking 2) evil 3) brooding, hatched 4) migrant 5) tragedies 6) counterpart7) are complaining/complain 8) grim 9) flocks, fed on 10) vegetation11) patches 12) Scores of2. 1) was lined with people who came to welcome the distinguished foreign guests2) the boss silenced all lively conversation in the office3) wearing a pair of sun glasses, the famous movie star passed the crowded unnoticed.4) looked deserted 5) were stricken by i t3. 1) patches, came into full bloom, were puzzled, mysterious2) throbbed with, sickened, migrant, a chorus 3) had crept into.
