     Select the best heading from the list for each paragraph1-5. Use each letter ONLY ONCE.
(There are more headings than paragraphs, so you will not use all the headings. List of headings:
A. what do people with an intellectual disability need?
B. What is intellectual disability?
C. How do people with an intellectual disability talk?
D. What are the forms of intellectual disability?
E. What causes intellectual disability?
F. How do you talk to a person with an intellectual disability?
     _________ 1. People with intellectual disability form one of the largest single disability groups in a
community. Intellectual disability refers to a general slowness to learn and function within society, and the
identification of intellectual disability is usually based on an assessment of a person's performance in a variety
of tests. An individual's level of performance, as assessed, can change with time and circumstances. With
skilled training and opportunity for development, people with intellectual disability have much greater potential
for acquiring skills and for participation in community life than previously had been thought possible.
     _________2. In many western societies, five categories of intellectual disability have traditionally been
used in order to indicate the perceived degree of difficulty an individual has with learning. All five may occur
in either children, adolescent or adult, and show as mild, moderate, severe, profound or multiple intellectual
disabilities.
      _________ 3. For the majority of intellectual disabilities, there is no identifiable cause but there are some
causes that are well documented. They include: brain damage at birth due to lack of oxygen-prolonged labor
during childbirth; brain damage before birth due to factors such as rubella, drug or diet-related problems;
damage after birth due to illnesses such as encephalitis or accident; hereditary defects in the genes; abnormal
chromosome count resulting in, for example, Down Syndrome.
     ________ 4. Like everyone else, people with an intellectual disability need a rewarding job, a satisfying
place to live and a good social life. But they may need extra support to achieve these things. Good support
services are based on the principle of normalization-which means enabling people to be part of the community
like everyone else.
      ________ 5. With the introduction of the intellectually disabled into communities, there is a need to
promote awareness of communication. Although many people may have little experience in talking with an
intellectually disabled person, there are common guidelines that can simplify the interaction. Firstly, it is useful
to remember that people with disabilities have feelings. Speaking in the same friendly manner as you would to
anyone else is also recommended. Being prepared to wait a little longer for replies during a conversation with an
intellectually disabled person would undoubtedly benefit the exchange. ks5u

     No one wants to look silly or do the wrong thing at a new job. It is important to make the right impression
(印象)-not the wrong one-from the very first day. You will face new people. You will be in a new place. It
may be difficult to know what to do. Here are six "dos" to help you make it through the first days at a new job.
     Get to work on time. Employers value employees who come to work right on time. Give yourself an extra
15 minutes to make sure you arrive on time.
     Pay attention to instructions. One of the first things your manager may do is to introduce you to your
workmates. These people will be important to you. They are the ones who will answer your questions when
the boss is not around.
     Ask plenty of questions. Make sure that your manager has told you what is expected of you. If he or she
has not told you your job duties, ask for a list. Set daily and weekly goals for yourself ____. You should never
make personal phone calls to your friends and family unless it is an emergency.
     Don't take too long for lunch. What is the lunch-hour rule at your new job? You can find out from your
manager or your company's personnel department. For example, do people eat at their desks or does everyone
take a full hour outside the workplace?
     Never be the first one to leave. Observe how your workmates behave around quitting time. It does no
good for you to be eager to leave.

                                                          Searching for the Truth
     Collecting and writing news is like researching in history: the best information comes from those who were
there at the time. So if we want to study the history of China in the sixth century AD, we look at the writings of the people who lived then. They are called the primary sources because they tell us what it was like to live then. People at a much later date who write about the same events are called the secondary sources. For example,
when we read the original writings of Jia Sixie on agriculture, we are reading a primary source; when we read
about Jia Sixie in our textbook we are reading a secondary source because the passage was written about him
and his ideas many years after he died.
     When we make news we use primary and secondary sources. We can see this most clearly in TV
programmes. As we watch the news on TV, the person presenting the programme in the studio is the
secondary source ( because he tells us about the news) and the reporter in Iraq or Washington is the primary
source ( because he is telling us about what is actually happening there). Without these reporters acting as
primary sources, you would never find out what really happened in a war, earthquake, sports meeting, concert
or festival. These reporters explain what is happening so we have a clearer idea of what is going on there. They often take photographers with them who act as primary source by giving pictures of events. In a newspaper
the position is different because these two roles are often combined. This means a reporter who investigates a
story may be the same person who writes it. If this happens, the reporter is both the primary and the secondary source. But the photographer who works with him/her is still a primary source.
      One of the reasons that it is important to separate primary and secondary sources is that they help us to
decide what is a fact and what is an opinion. A fact is something that everybody agrees has happened. An
opinion is somebody's idea of what happened. So facts and opinions are often mixed in any report, whether in
a newspaper or on TV.
     What have you learnt from the above passage?
Primary source Primary sources are the writings of the people who lived at   1   time and offered an
inside view of a particular event.
Secondary source Secondary sources are the writings of the people who write about the same events
at a much later date with explanation and analysis   2   on primary sources.
News on TV The TV  3  in the studio is the secondary source while the reporter on the   4   is the
primary source.
News in a newspaper A newspaper reporter can be both primary and secondary source if he collects
the information and then   5   the news. But the photographer   6   with the
reporter is always a primary source.
Fact A fact is something that everybody agrees has happened. In other   7    , it is
something that is   8   .
Opinion An opinion is somebody's idea of what   9   on.
Conclusion Primary and secondary sources are both important for  10  the truth.

     Students often say to me,"I don't know any history. I think it would be a good thing to learn some."What
they seem to mean is that they have never had a"course" about history or read. any history books. But they are
greatly mistaken if they think " they don' t know any history". Every man, woman, and child knows some
history, enough at least to live in the world.
     Suppose you had awakened this morning totally unable to remember anything-all your other senses working
properly, but ____. You would be in a bad way indeed! You wouldn't know who you were, or where you were, what you had done yesterday, or what you intended of other people expected you to do today. What could you
do in that case? Wander about helplessly, seeing and hearing things, taking them in as altogether new, not at all
knowing what they might mean in relation either to the past or to the future. You would have to discover your
little world all over again, much as you discovered it in childhood. You would have to" adapt (適應(yīng))" yourself
and make a new start. In short, you would be a lost soul because you had stopped to have any knowledge of
history, the history of your personal doings and associations(聯(lián)系 ) in the past. The fact is that history is no

     In many ways, the earliest periods of photography are the most satisfying. Learning to use the controls is
easy and comes quickly, and you can measure the results in terms of sharp and correctly de- veloped pictures.
Once you have mastered that, you can start on the second step of your photographic work. Using these basic
skills in the wide variety of situations to give the pictures you want, noticing what you see through the
viewfinder and turning that into the most effective picture become totally interesting.
     All good photographs have one thing in common: there is no doubt what the subject of the picture is meant
to be. Every photog- rapher must use those same standards to his or her work, not only to finished results but
to the subject before he or she takes it. Always work out quite clearly what the subject of the picture is to be
and why you are taking the picture. For example, "I am going to take a picture of this street to show the
different styles and ages of the buildings and that people have been living,working and shopping in them since
time began." By doing this you have a better idea of what to include in the picture and what to leave out. How
often have you been shown photographs taken by people away on a trip some- where? The judgment is always
similar, something about"the car park is out of the picture to the left",or " you can't quite see from this picture
but if you go up the street". The photographs are usual- ly collections of buildings, people, parked cars,
possibly a distant look of an ancient church, and best of all, a figure which you are told is Aunt Henrietta,
disappearing in the middle distance. When photographers show you their pictures, they have a clear idea of
what they want to bring to your attention, but it often does not ap- pear in the picture. If they had given just a
little of their time to think about their future judgment before taking the picture, then the picture would relate its
own story. Good pictures can show their sub- jects quickly and easily.
1. What does the first sentence of the passage mean?
A. The skills of photography are not as satisfactory nowadays as before.
B. The earliest pictures were the best pictures people have ever taken.
C. The present-day photography depends more on technology than on art.
D. Learning to produce a sharp and correctly developed picture is only the first step
     in photography and is easily learned.
2. What will it bring you if you decide the purpose of the photo- graph in advance?
A. It will allow you to leave out unnecessary material.
B. It will allow you to stand in the best place.
C. It will help you to vary the subjects of your pictures.
D. It means you will waste less time.
3. Many photographers fail because____.
A. their pictures include both buildings and people
B. everything is not clear in their pictures
C. the subjects of their pictures are not obvious
D. the explanation given for their pictures is mistaken
4. What book is this passage most likely taken from?
A. A book on photography for news reporters.
B. A book on how to photograph people.
C. A book on choosing the right camera.
D. A book on improving photographic techniques.

     We like to keep our distance from others and there are very specific social rules about how close we can
go to others in particular situations. The social distances here are approximate, of course and will vary with
people. But they are still a good general rule. Hall identified four zones that are common for Americans:
     Public Zone: >12 feet. The public zone is generally over 12 feet. That is, when we're walking around
town, we'll try to keep at least 12 feet between us and other people. Of course there're many times when we
cannot do this. We'll start to notice other people who are with in this distance. The closer they get, the more
we become aware.
     Social Zone:4-12 feet. Within the social zone, we start to feel a connection with other people. When they're
closer, then we can talk with them without having to shout, but still keep them at a safe distance. This is a
comfortable distance for people who are standing in a group but maybe not talking directly with one another.
     Personal Zone: 1.5-4feet. In the personal zone, the conversation gets more direct, and this is a good distance for two people who are talking seriously about something.
      Intimate(親密的)Zone: <1.5 feet. When a person is within arm's reach or closer, then we can touch them
in intimate ways. Romance of all kinds happens in this space. Entering intimate zone of somebody else can be
very threatening.
     The rules about social distances vary with different groups of people. People who live in towns spend more
time close to one another. In a large and crowded city, the distances will be less than in a small town. Different
countries also have different rules about social distances. Watch a Japanese person talking at a party with a
person from a Western country. The Japanese will step in and the Westerner will step back. Speeded up, it's
like a dance around the room.
1. Which of the following shows how the text is organized? (①=Paragraph 1…)
2. In a less crowded place, an American usually keeps a stranger at a distance of _____ .
A. about 1.5 feet
B. less than 4 feet
C. about 2 feet
D. more than 12 feet
3. If eight people sit in a room and all of them don't talk directly with one another, they prefer _____.
A. Public Zone
B. Social Zone
C. Personal Zone
D. intimate Zone
4. What is the main idea of the last paragraph?
A. There're some rules about social distances
B. The Japanese are more polite than Americans
C. The rules about social distances can vary
D. Cities have fewer rules about social distances
5. What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A. The Japanese would like to dance with people from Western countries
B. The Westerner would like to keep close to people they are talking with at party
C. The Japanese would like to keep a distance from people they are talking with at party
D. The social distance between people in small towns is longer than that in large and crowded cities.

     One of the more common and destructive mental tendencies I've seen is that of focusing on what we want
instead of what we have.
     We want this or that. If we don't get what we want, we keep thinking about all that we don't have and we
remain dissatisfied. If we do get what we want, we simply recreate the same thinking in our new
circumstances. So, despite getting what we want, we still remain unhappy. Happiness can't be found when we
are yearning (向往,渴望) for new desires.
      Luckily, there is a way to be happy. It involves changing the emphasis of our thinking from what we want
to what we have. Rather than wishing you were able to take a vacation to Hawaii, think of how much fun you
have had close to home. The list of possibilities is endless! Each time you notice yourself falling into the "I
wish life were different" trap, back off and start over. Take a breath and remember all that you have to be
grateful. When you focus not on what you want, but on what you have, you end up getting more of what you
want anyway. If you focus on the good qualities of your spouse (配偶), she'll be more loving. If you are
grateful for your job rather than complaining about it, you'll do a better job, be more productive, and probably
end up getting a raise anyway. If you focus on ways to enjoy yourself around home rather than waiting to
enjoy yourself in Hawaii, you'll end up having more fun. If you ever do get to Hawaii, you'll be in the habit of
enjoying yourself. And, if by some chance you don't, you have a great life anyway.
      Make a note of yourself to start thinking more about what you have than what you want. If you do, your
life will start appearing much better than before. For perhaps the first time in your life, you'll know what it means to feel satisfied.
1. Why did the author say that focusing on what we want is destructive?
A. If we don't get what we want, we remain dissatisfied.
B. If we do get what we want, we simply recreate the same thinking.
C. If we desire what we want, we would be unhappy.
D. All of the above 
2. How do you understand the underlined expression "I wish life were different" in the second paragraph?
A. Focusing on what you want.
B. Focusing on what you have.
C. Focusing on ways to enjoy yourself around home.
D. Focusing on being able to take a vacation.
3. The passage implies that ______.
A. getting what we want, we would be happy
B. if we focus on what we have, we would have a better life
C. it is more fun than you have had close to home
D. focusing on what you want, you end up getting more of what you have anyway
4. Which is NOT mentioned in the passage?
A. If we focus on what we want, we may remain dissatisfied and unhappy.
B. Changing our thinking from what we want to what we have would make you happy.
C. Focus on the good qualities of your wife, she'll be more loving.
D. It is more fun to around home than taking a vacation to Hawaii.

     Few of us haven't read Cinderella, the story of a young woman living in poverty who meets the prince
of her dreams. Some might not want to admit it, but there is a hidden Cinderella in everyone's heart-we all
wish we could achieve recognition or success after a period of obscurity (默默無聞).
     Mary Santiago has that secret dream, too. Her story is featured in Another Cinderella Story, a film set in
a US high school.
     Mary is shy but loves to dance. Compared with other girls, she is invisible. However, her world changes
completely when a famous teenager pop singer, Joey Parker, appears.
     Joey is everything the rest of the boys in her class are not-kind, handsome and desirable. Mary and
Joey's paths cross at a ball. They meet and fall in love with each other. But when Mary has to rush back
home, she leaves behind her MP3 player, which becomes the only clue Joey has to find the girl of his dreams.
Of course, there is a wicked (邪惡的) stepmother, who turns out to be Dominique Blatt and she takes in
Mary after her dancer mother dies. Dominique treats Mary like a maid and does everything she can to make
sure Mary doesn't get into the top dance school. Her two daughters are equally determined to stop Joey falling
for Mary, even if that means embarrassing her. 
     The story, though it mostly follows Cinderella, does add a few modern day twists to the classic fairy tale.
Refreshingly, the film, unlike many high school films, does not focus on looks, although the actors are all
beautiful. There is also a lot less materialism in Another Cinderella Story than in many similar movies.
     "The movie takes the Cinderella fairytale as its jumping off point," writes movie critic Amber Wilkinson.
"The focus is firmly on following your dream."
1. The first paragraph is mainly to ______.
A. build interest and lead us to Mary's secret dream
B. remind us why Cinderella is popular all the years
C. inform us of the main topic of the whole passage
D. tell us how interesting the fairy tale Cinderella is
2. In the movie, Mary Santiago is the main character who _______.
A. is brave in expressing her love
B. is attended badly by the stepmother
C. has a dream of meeting a prince
D. is embarrassed by the pop singer
3. What can we infer from the passage?
A. Joey is just like other boys in Mary's class.
B. Mary's mother influences her a lot in singing.
C. Not many people have a dream to be realized.
D. The MP3 player helps Joey in finding Mary.
4. The passage is mainly about _______.
A. an introduction to a film
B. a review about a film
C. an essay about dreams
D. an advertisement of Cinderella
