letters, reports, trade publications, interoffice communications, not to mention newspapers and magazines: a never-ending flood of words. in 16 a job or advancing in one, the ability to read and comprehend 17 can mean the difference between success and failure. yet the unfortunate fact is that most of us are 18 readers. most of us develop poor reading 19 at an early age, and never get over them. the main deficiency 20 in the actual stuff of language itself words. taken individually, words have little meaning until they are strung together into phrases, sentences and paragraphs. 21 , however, the untrained reader does not read groups of words. he laboriously reads one word at a time, often regressing（退回）to 22 words or passages. regression, the tendency to look back over what you have just read, is a common bad habit in reading. another habit which 23 down the speed of reading is vocalization sounding each word either orally or mentally as one reads.to overcome these bad habits, some reading clinics use a device called an 24 , which moves a bar (or curtain) down the page at a predetermined（預(yù)先確定的） speed. the bar is set at a slightly faster rate 25 the reader finds

閱讀理解（共15小題；每小題2分，滿分30分）閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個選項（a、b、c和d）中，選出最佳選項。(a)easter eggseaster falls officially on the sunday following the first full moon after march 21. the name easter itself derives from europe, the anglo-saxon goddess of springtime and sunrise. christians relate the rising of the sun to resurrection of jesus, son of god, and therefore easter, like easter, represents rebirth of the soul. it is because of this association of the holiday with rebirth that the egg has long been its chief symbol. the egg was a symbol of spring and fertility (for the egg is the original germ from which all life proceeds) long before the christian era. the ancient persians, greeks and chinese exchanged eggs at their spring festivals. in christian times the egg took on a new meaning, symbolizing christs tomb-a cold and hard casket from which new life finally broke forth in triumph. in modern times the egg is still the most important part of easter customs. egg-rolling contests, egg hunts and egg-dyeing are still very popular with americans at easter time. today easter is more a family day than a religious holiday. relatives and friends get together for large easter dinners. many american and friends get together for large easter dinners. many american cities have easter parades. people enjoy the return of the milder weather by walking outdoors to display their new spring clothes. 41. people observe easter originally to celebrate .a. the goddess of springtime and sunrise. b. the resurrection of jesus. c. the return of the mild weather. d. the rising of the sun in a new spring. 42. christians compare the resurrection of jesus to . a. the rising of the sun. b. the return of the spring. c. easter. d. the egg. 43. it can be concluded that the core of the holidays significance is

(b)what makes one person more intelligent than another? what makes one person a genius, like the brilliant albert einstein, and another person a fool? are people born intelligent or stupid, or is intelligence the result of where and how you live? these are very old question and the answers to them are still not clear.we know, however, that just being born with a good mind is not enough. in some ways, the mind is like a leg or an arm muscle. it needs exercise. mental (done with the mind) exercise is particularly important for young children. many child psychologists (心理學(xué)家) think that parents should play with their children more often and give them problems to think about. the children are then more likely to grow up bright and intelligent. if, on the other hand, children are left alone a great deal with nothing to do, they are more likely to become dull and unintelligent.parents should also be careful what they say to young children. according to some psychologists, if parents are always telling a child that he or she is a fool or an idiot, then the child is more likely to keep doing silly and foolish things. so it is probably better for parents to say very positive (helpful) things to their children, such as “that was a very clever thing you did.” or “you are such a smart child.”46. the words “intelligent” and “brilliant” in the first paragraph probably mean _ while “dull” in the second paragraph means _. a. bright and splendidslow in thinking and understandingb. pretty and handsomeordinary-lookingc. great and importantcommond. hopeful and helpfulcareless47. according to the context we can guess that a genius is _ while an idiot is _. a. a normal persona funny personb. a strong persona weak personc. a highly intelligent persona foolish or weak-minded persond. a famous personan ordinary person48. a person _ is more likely to become a genius. a. whose parents are cleverb. often thinking about difficult problemc. often helped by his parents and teachersd. born with a good brain and putting it to active use49. it is better for parents _. a. to praise and encourage their children more oftenb. to be hard on their childrenc. to leave their children alone with nothing to dod. to give their children as much help as possible50. which of the following is not true according to the article? a. parents play an important part in their childrens growth.b. the less you use your mind the duller you may become.c. intelligence is obviously the result of where and how you live.d. parents should always encourage their children.(c)after giving a talk at a high school, i was asked to pay a visit to a special student. an illness had kept the boy home, but he had expressed an interest in meeting me. i was told it would mean a great deal to him, so i agreed.during the nine-mile drive to his home, i found out something about matthew. he had muscular dystrophy (肌肉萎縮癥). when he was born, the doctor told his parents that he would not live to five, and then they were told he would not make it to ten. now he was thirteen. he wanted to meet me because i was a gold-medal power lifter, and i knew about overcoming obstacles and going for my dreams.i spent over an hour talking to matthew. never once did he complain or ask, “why me?” he spoke about winning and succeeding and going for his dreams. obviously, he knew what he was talking about. he didnt mention that his classmates had made fun of him because he was different. he just talked about his hopes for the future, and how one day he wanted to lift weights with me. when we had finished talking, i went to my briefcase and pulled out the first gold medal i had won and put it around his neck. i told him he was more of a winner and knew more about success and overcoming obstacles than i ever would. he looked at it for a moment, then took it off and handed it back to me. he said, “you are a champion. you earned that medal. someday when i get to the olympics and win my own medal, i will show it to you.”last summer i received a letter from matthews parents telling me that matthew had passed away. they wanted me to have a letter he had written to me a few days before:dear dick,my mum said i should send you a thank-you letter for the picture you sent me. i also want to let you know that the doctors tell me that i dont have long to live any more, but i still smile as much as i can.i told you someday that i would go to the olympics and win a gold medal, but i know now i will never get to do that. however, i know im a champion, and god knows that too. when i get to heaven, god will give me my medal and when you get there, i will show it to you. thank you for loving me.your friend,matthew51. the boy looked forward to meeting the author because _. a. he was also good at weight lifting b. he wanted to get to the olympics and win a medalc. he was one of the authors fans d. he admired the author very much52. the underlined sentence in the third paragraph probably means that _.a. the boy never complained about how unlucky he was to have this diseaseb. the boy never complained about not being able to go to schoolc. the boy never complained why the author had never come to see him befored. the boy never complained about not getting a medal 53. from the passage we learn that _. a. matthew was an athlete b. matthew was an optimistic（樂觀的）and determined boyc. the author used to have the same disease as matthew had d. matthew became a champion before he died 54. matthew didnt accept the authors medal because _. a. he thought it was too expensive b. he was sure that he could win one in the future c. he thought it was of no use to him as he would die soon d. he would not be pitied by others55. what would be the best title for this passage?
