In college I had a part-time job at a shop downtown that sold doughnuts(a kind of cake) and coffee. The small shop,  36  on a block where a dozen buses stopped, it provided food to people who had a few minutes to wait for their  37 .
I  38 coffee in takeout cups and patiently waited on customers who’d point through the glass case and say, “No, not that one, the one two rows over.”
Every afternoon around four o’clock, a group of school children would burst   39 the  shop. Adults would glance in, see the crowd and   40 on. I didn’t   41 if the kids waited for the bus in the shop.
I came to know them pretty well. The girls would talk about school. The boys were more quiet, choosing not to   42   their secrets, but still, they’d wait every day in the store   43 their bus came.
Sometimes I'd hand out bus fare (車費(fèi)) when a ticket went  44 — always repaid the next day.When ii snowed, the kids and I would wait  45 for a very late bus.They'd call their parents to let them know they were okay.At _ closing time I wouldn't  46 the door, and the kids and I would wait in the warm store until their bus finally arrived.
I  47 a lot of doughnuts on snowy days.I enjoyed my pals (伙伴), but it never  48  to me that I played an important part in their lives—until one Saturday afternoon when a serious-looking man came into the store and asked if I was the girl who worked weekdays around four o'clock.I  49 it was true, and he introduced himself   50 the father of two of my favorites—a brother and sister team.
"I want you know I appreciate what you do for my children.I  51 about them having to take two buses to get home.It  52  a lot that they can wait here and you are keeping an eye on them."
I told him it wasn't a big  53 .that I enjoyed the kids.
"No, you don't understand.When they're with the doughnuts lady, I know they're  54 .It is a big deal.And I'm grateful."
So I was the Doughnuts lady.I not only had received a   55 .I had become a landmark.

The boy, shocked, jumped back in clumsy 51, almost falling over himself. My father smiled, with his hand still outstretched in the boy’s direction. “Give me your 52,” my father said.
The boy inched forward again, 53. My father took his hand and began to shake it 54, as if the two of them had been old friends 55 each other.
“You know, kid,” my father said, “you’ll solve more problems with this move than with any other.

Mr. King lived with six hundred wild animals on the Greek Island of Kyklos. Ever since he left school, he had traveled all over the word collecting animals for his own zoo. He hoped to collect two examples of every kind of animal on his island. But he was afraid that people would find him someday.

Testing has taken the place of teaching in most public schools. Pretests, drills, tests, and retests. They know that the best way to read a textbook is to look at the questions at the end of the chapter and then read the text quickly for the answers. I believe that my daughter Erica, who gets excellent marks, has never read a chapter of any of her school textbooks all the way through. And teachers are often heard to say proudly and openly that they teach to the test.
Teaching to the test is a curious phenomenon(現(xiàn)象). Instead of deciding what skills students ought to learn, helping students learn them, and then using some methods of assessment(評價(jià)) to discover whether students have mastered the skills, teachers are encouraged to teach the students in the opposite way. First one looks at a test. Then one chooses the skills needed not to master reading, but to do well in the test. Finally, the test skills are taught.
The ability to read or write might suggest the ability to do reasonably well on standardized tests. However, neither reading nor writing develops simply through being taught to take tests. We must be careful to avoid mistaking preparations for a test of a skill with the acquisition(習(xí)得)of that skill. Too many discussions of basic skills make this misunderstanding because people are tested rather than concerned with the nature and quality of what is taught.
Recently, many schools have faced what could be called the crisis of comprehension or, in simple words, the phenomenon of students with grammar skills still being unable to understand what they read. These students are quite good at test taking and filling in workbooks. However, they have little or no experience reading or thinking, and talking about what they read. They know the details but can’t see or understand the whole. They are taught to be so concerned with grades that they have no time to think about meaning, and reread things if necessary.
小題1: The author mentions Erica’s performance in her study in order to show_________.
A.her cleverness in test taking B.the good way to take tests
C.the improper way of teachingD.the best way to read textbooks
小題2:Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A.The teachers are curious about teaching to the test.
B.Skills in general are not only useless but often mislead students.
C.Ability to read and write has nothing to do with ability to do well in tests.
D.Preparations for a test of a skill do not mean the acquisition of that skill.
小題3: In the author’s opinion, __________.
A.some good methods of assessment should take the place of tests
B.more attention should be paid to the nature and quality of what is taught
C.students should not be concerned with grades but do more reading and thinking
D.students needn’t learn grammar skills because they are useless for understanding
小題4:By “crisis of comprehension” (in Paragraph 4) the author means many students ______.
A.a(chǎn)re too much concerned with grades
B.fail to understand the real goal of education
C.lack proper practice in grammar drills
D.do well on tests but can’t understand what they read

I am untraditional. I like the different gift that nobody else would think
of to give. I hardly know what to get this year, however. I have given this a lot of thought because I just didn’t have a perfect gift this year for Father’s Day. As a daughter, I came up with some nice possibilities and wanted to share them with others.
Weekend stay at a favorite place. Maybe two nights in a motel(汽車旅館) would be nice for him. He and his dear could get away for an entire weekend and would not have to worry about the room and board. It would show some thought and generosity. It might be rather expensive and out of the question for some of us, but for others it may be within price range.
Concert tickets. If your dad has a favorite musician or band he would like to see, what an opportunity! He would enjoy himself and what a gift! The entire time at the concert he would  be thinking of you and what a great gift! In most cases, they would spend their money on the family or something else.
Designer clothes for the summer. Get his sizes. A lot of men will not shop for themselves. Find out his favorite colors and brand names. Let your dad add some handsome clothes to his summer wardrobe.
Gift basket of his favorite food. Whatever he likes to eat, get him a decorative gift basket of his favorite stuff. Add a bit of coffee or tea. Summer sausage, shrimp, or sushi(壽司)? Chinese, Italian, German, or none of the above! You know him pretty well, so surprise him with delicious food and watch him gladly receive it. If you are short of cash, cook a meal yourself!

A. has got a suitable gift for her father

B. buy some clothes for your father
C. give your father a decorative gift basket

Now let us look at how we read.When we read a printed text, our eyes move across a page in short, rough movement.We recognize words usually when our eyes are still when they fixate(凝視).Each time they fixate, we see a group of words.This is known as the recognition span or the visual span.The length of time of which the eyes stop ---the duration of the fixation ----varies considerably from person to person.It also varies within one person according to his purpose in reading and his familiarity with the text.Furthermore, it can be affected by such factors as lighting and tiredness.
Unfortunately, in the past, many reading improvement courses have concentrated too much on how our eyes move across the printed page.As a result of this misleading emphasis on the purely visual aspects of reading, numerous exercises have been devised to train the eyes to see more words at one fixation.For instance, in some exercises, words are flashed on to a screen for, say, a tenth or a twentieth of a second.One of the exercises has required students to fix their eyes on some central point, taking in the words on either side.Such word patterns are often constructed in the shape of rather steep pyramids so the reader takes in more and more words at each successive fixation.All these exercises are very clever, but it’s one thing to improve a person’s ability to see words and quite another thing to improve his ability to read a text efficiently.Reading requires the ability to understand the relationship between words.Consequently, for these reasons, many experts have now begun to question the usefulness of eye training, especially since any approach which trains a person to read isolated words and phrases would seem unlikely to help him in reading a continuous text.
59.The time of the recognition span can be affected by the following facts EXCEPT________ .
   A.one’s familiarity with the text B.one’s purpose in reading
   C.the length of a group of words       D.lighting and tiredness
60.The author may believe that reading ______.
   A.requires a reader to take in more words at each fixation   
B.requires a reader to see words more quickly
   C.demands a deeply-participating mind                   
D.demands more mind than eyes
61.What does the author mean by saying the underlined sentence in the second paragraph?
   A.The ability to see words is not needed when an efficient reading is conducted.
   B.The reading exercises mentioned can’t help to improve both the ability to see and to
comprehend words.
  C.The reading exercises mentioned can’t help to improve an efficient reading.
  D.The reading exercises mentioned have done a great job to improve one’s ability to see
words.
62.What is the writer’s attitude in writing this passage?
   A.critical   B.neutral   C.pessimistic     D.optimistic
