26、on show.BI am a writer. I spend a great deal of my time thinking about the power of language一the way it can evoke(喚起）an emotion, a visual image, a complex idea, or a simple truth. Language is the tool of my trade. And I use them allall the Englishes I grew up with.Born into a Chinese family that had

27、 recently arrived in California, Ive been giving more thought to the kind of English my mother speaks. Like others, I have described it to people as “broken” English. But feel embarrassed to say that. It has always bothered me that I can think of no way to describe it other than “broken”， as if it w

28、ere damaged and needed to be fixed, as if it lacked a certain wholeness. Ive heard other terms used，“l(fā)imited English,” for example. But they seem just as bad，as if everything is limited, including peoples perceptions(認(rèn)識)of the limited English speaker.I know this for a fact, because when I was growin

29、g up, my mother's “l(fā)imited” English limited my perception of her. I was ashamed of her English. I believed that her English rejected the quality of what she had to say. That is because she expressed them imperfectly her thoughts were imperfect. And I had plenty of evidence to support me: the fac

30、t that people in department stores, at banks, and at restaurants did not take her seriously, did not give her good service, pretended not to understand her, or even acted as if they did not hear her.I started writing fiction in 1985. And for reasons I wont get into today, I began to write stories us

31、ing all the Englishes I grew up with: the English she used with me, which for lack of a better term might be described as “broken”, and what I imagine to be her translation of her Chinese, her internal(內(nèi)在的）language，and for that I sought lo preserve the essence, but neither an English nor a Chinese s

32、tructure: I wanted to catch what language ability tests can never show; her intention, her feelings, the rhythms of her speech and the nature of her thoughts.41. By saying “Language is the tool of my trade”, the author means that .A. she uses English in foreign trade B. she is fascinated by language

33、sC. she works as a translatorD. she is a writer by profession42. The author used to think of her mothers English as .A. impolite B. amusingC. imperfect D. practical43.

36、a blackboard is a thing of the past. With the coming of new technologies like computers and smartphone, writing by hand has become something of nostalgic (懷舊的）skill. However，while todays educators are using more and more technology in their teaching, many believe basic handwriting skills are still n

37、ecessary for students to be successful-both in school and in life.Virginia Berninger, professor of educational psychology at the University of Washington, says its important to continue teaching handwriting and help children acquire the skill of writing by hand.Berninger and her colleagues conducted

38、 a study that looked at the ability of students to complete various writing tasks-both on a computer and by hand. The study, published in 2009, found that when writing with a pen and paper, participants wrote longer essays and more complete sentences and had a faster word production rate.In a more r

39、ecent study, Berninger looked at what role spelling plays in a students writing skills and found that how well children spell is tied to know well they can write. “Spelling makes some of the thinking parts of the brain active which helps us access our vocabulary, word meaning and concepts. It is all

40、owing our written language to connect with ideas.” Berninger said.Spelling helps students translate ideas into words in their mind first and then to transcribe(轉(zhuǎn)換）“those words in the mind written symbols on paper or keyboard and screen,” the study said. Seeing the words in the “minds eye” helps chil

41、dren not only to turn their ideas into words, says Berninger, but also to spot spelling mistakes when they write the words down and to correct then over time.“In our computer age, some people believe that we dont have to teach spelling because we have spell checks,” she said. “But until a child func

42、tional spelling ability of about a fifth grade level, they won't have knowledge to choose the correct spelling among the options given by the computer.”46. What makes writing by hand a thing of the past?A. The absence of blackboard in classroom.B. The use of new technologies in teaching.C. The l

43、ack of practice in handwriting.D. The popular use of smartphones.47. Berningers study published in 2009.A. focused on the difference between writing by hand and on a computer.B. indicated that students prefer to write with a pen and paper.C. found that good essays arc made up of long sentences.D. di

44、scussed the importance of writing speed.48. Which of the following best shows the role of spelling?A. Spelling improves ones memory of words.B. Spelling ability is closely related to writing ability.C. Spelling benefits the translation from words into ideas.D. Spelling slows down finding exact words

45、 to express ideas.49. What does “minds eye” in paragraph 5 mean?A. Window.B. Soul C. Picture. D. Imagination.50. What conclusion could be drawn from the passage?A. Computers can help people with their choice of words.B. Spell checks can take the place of spelling teaching.C. Handwriting still has a

46、place in todays classrooms.D. Functional spelling ability develops fast in the fifth grade.DBlind imitation (模仿)is self-destruction. To those who do not recognize their unique worth, imitation appears attractive; to those who know their strength, imitation is unacceptable.In the early stages of skil

47、l or character development, imitation is helpful. When I first learned to cook, I used recipes (菜譜）and turned out some tasty dishes. But soon I grew bored. Why follow someone elses way of cooking when I could create my own? Imitating role models is like using training wheels on a childs bicycle; the

48、y help you get going, but once you find your own balance, you fly faster and farther without relying on them.In daily life, imitation can hurt us if we subconsciously (下意識地）hold poor role models. If, as a child, you observed people whose lives were bad, you may have accepted their fear and pain as n

49、ormal and gone on to follow what they did. If you do not make strong choices for yourself, you will get the results of the weak choices of others.In the field of entertainment, our culture glorifies celebrities. Those stars look great on screen. But when they step off screen, their personal lives ma

50、y be disastrous. If you are going to follow someone, focus on their talent, not their bad character or unacceptable behaviors.Blessed is the person willing to act on their sudden desire to create something unique. Think of the movies, books, teachers, and friends that have affected you most deeply.

51、They touched you because their creations were motivated by inspiration not desperation. The world is changed not by those who do what has been done before them, but by those who do what has been done inside them. Creative people have an endless resource of ideas. The problem a creator faces is not r

52、unning out of material; it is what to do with the material knocking at the door of imagination.Study you role models, accept the gifts they have given, and leave behind what does not server you. Then you can say, “I stand on the shoulders of my ancestors tragedies and declare victory, and know that

53、they are cheering on.”51. Imitation proves useful when you .A. know you are uniqueB. lose the balance of lifeC. begin to learn something new D. get tired of routine practice52.

54、decisionsD. stay away from stars53. According to the author, the world moves on because of those who are .A. desperate to influence others with their knowledgeB. ready to turn their original ideas into realityC. eager to discover what their ancestors didD. willing to accept others' ideas54. The

55、trouble a creator faces is .A. the lack of strong motivationB. the absence of practical ideasC. how to search for more materialsD. how to use imagination creatively55. What is the author's purpose in writing this passage?A. To highlight the importance of creatively.B. To criticize the characters

56、 of role models.C. To compare imitation with creation.D. To explain the meaning of success.第II卷本卷共6小題，共35分。第三部分：寫作第一節(jié)：閱讀表達（共5小題：每小題2分，滿分10分）閱讀短文，按照題目要求用英語回答問題。Born in 1949, Diana Nyad took an early interest in swimming as a sport and was a Florida State High School swimming champion.
