23、 means that when they don 't know a word, they are going to make a mistake, right in front of everyone. After having taught fifth-grade classes for four years, I decided to try at all costs to rid them of their fear and dislike of books, and to get them to read oftener and more adventurously.One

24、 day soon after school had started, I said to them, Now I 'm going to say something about reading that you have probably never heard a teacher say before. I would like you to read a lot of books this year, but I want you to read them only for pleasure. I am not going to ask you questions to find

25、 out whether you understand the books or not. If you understand enough of a book to enjoy it and want to go on reading it, that's enough for me. Also I 'm notgoing to ask you what words mean.”The children sat stunned and silent. Was this a teacher talking? One girl, who had just come to us f

26、rom a school where she had had a very hard time, looked at me steadily for a long time after I had finished. Then, still looking at me, she said slowly and seriously, Mr. Holt, do you really mean that?”I said just as seriously, I mean every word of it.”During the spring she really astonished me. One

27、 day, she was reading at her desk. From a glimpse of the illustrations I thought I knew what the book was. I said to myself, It can't be,” and went to take a closer look. Sure enough, she was reading Moby Dick, in edition with woodcuts. I said, Don't you find parts of it rather heavy going?

28、” She answered, Oh, sure, but I just skip over those parts and go on to the next good part .”This is exactly what reading should be and in school so seldom is an exciting, joyous adventure. Find something, dive into it, take the good parts, skip the bad parts, get what you 英語試卷第3頁（共14頁）英語試卷第4頁（共14頁）

29、can out of it, go on to something else. How different is our mean-spirited, picky insistence that every child get every last little scrap of understanding" that can be dug out of a book.41. According to the passage, children's fear and dislike of books may result from.A. reading little and

30、thinkinglittleB.reading often and adventurouslyC. being made to read too muchD.being made to read aloud before others42. The teacher told his students to read.A. for enjoymentB.for knowledgeC. for a larger vocabularyD.for higher scores in exams43. Upon hearing the teacher's talk, the children pr

31、obably felt that.A. it sounded stupidB. it was not surprising at allC. it sounded too good to be trueD. it was no different from other teachers 'talk44. Which of the following statements about the girl is TRUE according to the passage?A. She skipped over those easy parts while reading.B. She had

32、 a hard time finishing the required reading tasks.C. She learned to appreciate some parts of the difficult books.D. She turned out to be a top student after coming to this school. 45. From the teacher's point of view,.A. children cannot tell good parts from bad parts while readingB. children sho

33、uld be left to decide what to read and how to readC. reading is never a pleasant and inspiring experience in school D. reading involves understanding every little piece of informationBGraphs can be a very useful tool for conveying information, especially numbers, percentages, and other data. A graph

34、 gives the reader a picture to interpret. That can be a lot more efficient than pages and pages explaining the data.Graphs can seem frightening, but reading a graph is a lot like reading a story. The graph has a title, a main idea, and supporting details. You can use your active reading skills to an

35、alyze and understand graphs just like any other text.Most graphs have a few basic parts: a caption or introduction paragraph, a title, a legend or key, and labeled axes. An active reader looks at each part of the graph before trying to interpret the data. Captions will usually tell you where the dat

36、a came from (for example, a scientific study of 400 African elephants from 1980 to 2005). Captions usually summarize the author's main point as well. The title is very important. It tells you the main idea of the graph by stating what kind of information is being shown. A legend, also called a k

37、ey, is a guide to the symbols and colors used in the graph. Many graphs, including bar graphs and line graphs, have two axes that form a corner. Usually these axes are the left side and the bottom of the graph. Each axis will always have a label. The label tells you what each axis measures.Bar Graph

38、sA bar graph has two axes and uses bars to show amounts. In Graph 1, we see that the x-axis shows grades that students earned, and the y-axis shows how many students earned each grade. You can see that 6 students earned an A because the bar for A stretches up to 6 on the vertical measurement. There

39、is a lot of information we can get from a simple graph like this (See Graph 1).Line GraphsA line graph looks similar to a bar graph, but instead of bars, it plots points and connects them with a line. It has the same parts as a bar graph two labeled axes and can be read the same way. To read a line

40、graph, it's important to focus on the points of intersection rather than the line segments between the points. This type of graph is most commonly used to show how something changes over time. Here is a graph that charts how far a bird flies during the first five days of its spring migration (Se

41、e Graph 2).12麻70戰(zhàn)沏4O3020J0O (SJJiwcIx) t且(一Grade EarnedGraph 1. Student Performance on Social Studies Quiz Graph 2. The Pip is Spring MigrationThe unit of measurement for the x-axis is days. The unit of measurement for the y-axis is kilometers. Thus we can see that, on the first day, the pipit flew

42、20 kilometers. The line segment goes up between Day 1 and Day 2, which means that the bird flew farther on Day 2. If the line segment angled dawn, as between Day 4 and Day 5, it would mean that the bird flew fewer kilometers than the day before. This line graph is a quick, visual way to tell the rea

43、der about the bird's migration.Pie GraphsA typical pie graph looks like a circular pie. The circle is divided into sections, and each section represents a fraction of the data. The graph is commonly used to show percentages; the whole pie represents l00 percent, so each piece is a fraction of th

44、e whole.A pie graph might include a legend, or it might use icons or labels within each slice. This pie graph shows one month 's expense (See Graph 3).Food $25Graph 3. Amy ' s June ExpensesMovies $12Clothing $36英語試卷第5頁(共14頁)英語試卷第6頁（共14頁）Savings $20Books $746. When used in a graph, a legend i

46、. Food.B. Books.C. Movies.D. ClothingCIf humans were truly at home under the light of the moon and stars, we would go in darkness happily, the midnight world as visible to us as it is to the vast number of nocturnal （夜間活動的）species on this planet. Instead, we are diurnal creatures, with eyes adapted

47、toliving in the sun 's light. This is a basic evolutionary fact, even though most of us don 't think of ourselves as diurnal beings. Yet it 's the only way to explain what we 've done to the night: We ve engineered it to receive us by filling it with light.The benefits of this kind o

48、f engineering come with consequences called light pollution whose effects scientists are only now beginning to study. Light pollution is largely the result of bad lighting design, which allows artificial light to shine outward and upward into the sky. in -designed lighting washes out the darkness of

49、 night and completely changes the light levels and light rhythms to which many forms of life, including ourselves, have adapted. Wherever human light spills into the natural world, some aspect of life is affected.In most cities the sky looks as though it has been emptied of stars, leaving behind a v

50、acant haze（霾）that mirrors our fear of the dark. We 've grown so used to this orange haze that the original glory of an unlit night dark enough for the planet Venus to throw shadow on Earthis wholly beyond our experience, beyond memory almost.We've lit up the night as if it were an unoccupied

51、 country, when nothing could be further from the truth. Among mammals alone, the number of nocturnal species is astonishing. Light is a powerful biological force, and on many species it acts as a magnet （磁鐵）.The effect is so powerful that scientists speak of songbirds and seabirds being captured“ by

52、 searchlights on land or by the light from gas flares on marine oil platforms. Migrating at night, birds tend to collide with brightly lit tall buildings.Frogs living near brightly lit highways suffer nocturnal light levels that are as much as a million times brighter than normal, throwing nearly ev

53、ery aspect of their behavior out of joint, including their nighttime breeding choruses. Humans are no less trapped by light pollution than the frogs. Like most other creatures, we do need darkness. Darkness is as essential to our biological welfare, to our internal clockwork, as light itself.Living

54、in a glare of our making, we have cut ourselves off from our evolutionary and cultural heritage the light of the stars and the rhythms of day and night. In a very real sense, light pollution causes us to lose sight of our true place in the universe, to forget the scale of our being, which is best me

According to the passage, human being.A. prefer to live in the darknessB. are used to living in the day lightC. were curious about the midnight worldD. had to stay at home with the light of th

The Rhythms of NatureDIn 2004, when my daughter Becky was ten, she and my husband, Joe, were united in their desire for a dog. As for me, I shared none of their canine lust.But why, they pleaded. Because I don't have time to take care of a dog. " But we 'll do it. Really? You 're going to walk the dog? Feed the dog? Bathe the dog? ” Yes, yes, and
