Many people think an only child is lucky because of the material goods and attention he or
she receives. But only children have their problems,too. For one thing,they have no privacy. Parents always feel entitled to know everything that's going on in an only child's life. Also,only children never have the opportunity to put the blame on a brother or sister for something they've done wrong. Third,only children miss the companionship of brothers and sisters. They can be lonely,and they may have trouble making friends later in life because they have never learned to get along with a brother or sister.

Every year is busy for the Save the Children Fund but 1989 has been especially important.
This independent organization devoted to the welfare of needy children throughout the world is seventy years old. Many children suffered hunger and homelessness at the end of the First World War. Concerned about the plight(困境) of these children, a group of British volunteers founded a new organization in 1919 to publicize the problems and help improve conditions. A founder member, Eglantyne Jebb, drew up the declaration of the "rights of the child", which was adopted by the League of Nations(later the United Nations). This charter(宪章) sums up the philosophy of Save the Children Fund's work. The basic principle is that dignity and well-being are a vital part of the lives of children and a child should be protected regardless of race, nationality or creed(信仰).

In 1989 millions of children throughout the world are still innocent victims of war, famine and poverty. Save the Children Fund is still working to raise public awareness and improve conditions.

Save the Children Fund

Name of organization:【46】

Time of foundation:【47】

Founders: a group of【48】

Aims: publicize the problem and help【49】

Those to be protected: needy children【50】

People appear to be born to compute. The numerical skills of children develop so early and
so inexorably that it is easy to imagine an internal clock of mathematical maturity guiding their growth. Not long after learning to walk and talk, they can set the table with impressive accuracy--one plate, one knife, one spoon, one fork, for each of the five chairs. Soon they are capable of noting that they have placed five knives, spoons, and forks on the table and, a bit later, that this amounts to fifteen pieces of silverware. Having thus mastered addition, they move on to subtraction. It seems almost reasonable to expect that if a child were secluded on a desert island at birth and retrieved seven years later, he or she could enter a second-grade mathematics class without any serius problems of intellectual adjustment.

Of course, the truth is not so simple. This century, the work of cognitive psychologists has illuminated the subtle forms of daily learning on which intellectual progress depends. Children were observed as they slowly grasped--or, as the case might be bumped into- concepts that adults take for granted, as they refused, for instance, to concede that quantity is unchanged as water pours from short stout glass into a tall thin one. Psychologists have since demonstrated that young children, asked to count the pencils in a pile, readily report the number of blue or red pencils, but must be coaxed into finding the total. Such studies have suggested that the rudiments of mathematics are mastered gradually, and with effort. They have also suggested that the very concept of abstract numbers--the idea of a oneness, a twoness, a threenes that applies to any class of objects and is a prerequisite for doing anything more mathematically demanding than setting a table--is itself far from innate.

What does the passage mainly discuss?

A.Trends in teaching mathematics to children.

B.The use of mathematics in child psychology.

C.The development of mathematical ability in children.

D.The fundamental concepts of mathematics that children must learn.

More than 6,000 children were expelled (开除) from US school last year for bringing guns a

More than 6,000 children were expelled (开除) from US school last year for bringing guns and bombs to school, the US Department of Education said on May 8.

The department gave a report to the expulsions (开除) as saying handguns accounted for 58% of the 6,093 expulsions in 1996—1997, against 7% for rifles (步枪) or shotguns and 35% for other types of firearms.

"The report is a clear sign that our nation's public schools are cracking down (严惩) on students who bring guns to school," Education Secretary Richard Riley said in a statement.

In March 1997, an 11-year old boy and a 13-year old boy using handguns and rifles shot dead four children and a teacher at a school in Arkansas. In October, two were killed and seven wounded in a shooting at a Mississippi school. Two months later, a 14-year old boy killed three high school students and wounded five in Kentucky.

Most of the expulsions, 56%, were from high school, 34% were from junior high schools and 9% were from elementary schools, the report said.

From the first paragraph we can infer that in the US schools______.

A.students enjoy shooting

B.safety is a problem

C.students are eager to be solider.

D.students can make guns.

The first year of school in America, known as kindergarten(幼儿园), usually begins between the ages of five and six. Among rich countries such a late start is very strange. President Obama

The first year of school in America, known as kindergarten(幼儿园), usually begins between the ages of five and six. Among rich countries such a late start is very strange. President Obama believes it is an economic and social problem; his education secretary goes as far as to say that it is “morally wrong”. This statement has some support,as it is clear from research into vocabulary that youngsters from poor families enter kindergarten well behind those from rich families a disadvantage that usually lasts a lifetime. Children from households on welfare knew 525 words by the age of three, while the children of professionals had mastered 1,116.

Pre-school can help close this gap. So in a speech last month, Mr. Obama called for a partnership between the federal government and the state, to expand it to every American child. It later became known that “every” meant those who come from families with incomes of up to 200% above the poverty line-equal to an income of $47,000 for a family of four.

Some critics(评论家)say that sending children to school at the age of four does not work. The evidence suggests otherwise. For example, on March 20th new results were announced from a study of 9 to 11 year olds in New Jersey. This report found that disadvantaged children who had attended preschool had better literacy(读写能力), language, math and science skills. And two years of prekindergarten were better than one.

Some studies also follow the effects of early learning over lifetimes, such as its effect on crime rates and other factors that may eventually burden society. Critics have singled out a government scheme called Head Start, created in 1965, which provides poor households with a range of services including school-based early education.

21. The kindergarten in other rich countries usually begins()than in America.

A. earlier

B. later

C. slower

22. Which is TRUE about the vocabulary size of the two groups of kids?

A. Poor preschool kids have a larger vocabulary than rich ones.

B. Rich preschool kids have a larger vocabulary than poor ones.

C. There is no obvious difference between the two groups of kids.

23. Which of the following about the New Jersey study is TRUE?

A. There is no evidence to support the New Jersey study.

B. Two years of prekindergarten were better than one.

C. Sending children to school at the age of four is not going to help.

24. The phrase “single out” in the last paragraph means().

A. count

B. think about

C. choose

25. Which of the following is an appropriate title for this passage?

A. Secondary Education.

B. Preschool Education.

C. Poor Kids' Education.

Any person who can read words and understand what they mean is fortunate. More than ha
lf the people in the world cannot read or write. They can learn about things only by watching and listening. However, people who can read are able to learn about anything they wish. People can read a language better if they have listened to it or learned to speak it. Reading, listening, and speaking are ways people come to understand the words of a language. Being able to write also makes reading easier. A mother or father is often a child’s first reading teacher. By speaking to a baby, the parent helps the baby understand what language is and what it is for. Children feel love and joy in the sounds of words. They try to talk back. As babies listen and speak, they store up facts and ideas. Certain things children do in the early years help them learn. Young children enjoy looking at picture books. Later, the parent reads books that the child can look at as well as listen to. At age five many children are beginning to read and write. Some can recognize their own names. Children continue to learn to read in school with their teacher’s help. Sometimes children read out loud. At other times they read silently. They learn to understand and remember. Reading teaches them new facts and helps them get along in everyday life.

1.The word “fortunate” in the first paragraph means ().

A.lucky

B.successful

C.wealthy

Dyslexia is a problem that restricts the ability to recognize words and connect sounds
with letters when people read. People with this learning disorder may also have problems when they write. Dyslexia is not related to eyesight or intelligence. The problem involves areas of the brain that process language. Brain scientists are studying whether they can predict which young children may struggle with reading to provide them with early help. John Gabrieli at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology is leading the study of five-year-olds in about twenty schools in the Boston area.

They studied in the schools with kindergartens. And for all the children joining in the study, they give them a brief set of paper-and-pencil tests to look at which children appear to be at some risk for struggling to read. So far, fifty of them have been examined in a scanner, a specialmachine, to show brain activity. Written tests are not always able to identify dyslexia or otherproblems, while brain scans may offer a more scientific way to identify problems. And with reading problems, early identification is important. When it comes to helping children overcome reading difficulties, the younger the child, the more effective they are.

Reading problems are not usually identified until a child is in the third or fourth grade. The later children are recognized as poor readers, the less treatment can help. And, as Professor Gabrieli points out, poor reading can make education a struggle. Reading is everything. Even math and science have textbooks.

While the children are given tasks related to reading, the brain scans measure the extent to which certain parts of the brain become active while the children do the work. The scientists say they are pleased with early results from the study, but have a long way to go.

1.Dyslexia affects the part of brain concerning ________.

A. eyesight B. intelligence C. language D. emotion

2.Dyslexia problems are more likely to be identified through ________.

A. speech contests B. reading efficiency

C. listening comprehension D. brain scans

3.According to the passage, which of the followings has the best time to overcome reading difficulties?

A. Tom, a boy in the kindergarten.

B. Kate, a high school leaver.

C. Jane, a primary school student.

D. Steve, a man in his thirties.

4.What is the passage mainly about?

A. An effective way to identity Dyslexia at an early stage.

B. A learning disorder involving one’s intelligence.

C. Dyslexia — a problem affecting one’s reading and writing.

D. A possible solution to the problems related to Dyslexia.

第10题
Recently, a study has confirmed what I’ve long known in my heart: two breakfasts are bette
rthan none. The research on the effect of breakfast on weight gain was done on school children. But for adults, in theory, two breakfasts are also better than none.

Researchers from Yale and the University of Connecticut followed 600 middle-schoolstudents as they developed from fifth to seventh grade, nothing their weight and if they had zerobreakfast, breakfast either at home or at school, or breakfast in both places. They found thatweight gain among second-breakfast eaters was no different from the average gain seen amongall students. Children who didn ’t eat breakfast, or ate it only sometimes, were more likely to beoverweight than double-breakfasters. It should be noted that only about one in ten children inthe study ate two breakfasts.

The study wasn’t designed to figure out why this might be true, but the researchers havesome theories: that people who don ’t eat breakfast (or any meal) might overeat later in the day,and that as people become obese, they tend to reduce calories (热量) by having no breakfast.

Yes, school breakfasts are more like a healthy snack(零食) than a full meal, and growingteens can eat a large amount of food. But if you ’re still not eating breakfast because you think itgives you more colories, you are not only mistaken, but you are also missing out one of life ’s greatpleasures.

What do we know about the research according to Paragraph 1?

A.It was about the effect of dinner on weight gain.

B.Its result was opposite to the author’s opinion.

C.It was done on overweight school children.

D.Its result might also be true of adults.

Which of the following is true according to Paragraph 2?A.About 90% of the children in the study had two breakfasts a day.

B.About 90% of the children in the study had one breakfast a day.

C.About 10% of the children in the study had two breakfasts a day.

D.About 10% of the children in the study had no breakfast at all.

What does the underlined word obese mean in Paragraph 3?A.Overweight.

B.Strong.

C.Tall.

D.Hungry.

According to the researchers, some people don’t eat breakfast because _____.A.they have no time

B.they prefer snacks

C.they want to keep fit

D.they want to eat more at lunch

What is the best title of this passage?A.Breakfast and School Performance

B.Breakfast and Weight Gain

C.Breakfast and Life Pleasure

D.Breakfast and Snacks
