The president’s message to students was simple: study hard, pay attention in class and embrace the opportunity to learn.

"We can have the most dedicated teachers, the most   1   (support) parents and the best schools in the world. And none of it will make a difference; none of it will matter,   2  all of you fulfill(履行) your responsibilities," Mr. Obama said.

It was a presidential talk  3  (deliver) at a time of economic uncertainty for many American families. Mr. Obama said he understood the tensions   4  many students faced. But that was no excuse  5  neglecting their homework or cutting class or dropping out of school.

Critics of the president strongly criticized the speech as an effort by the White House to promote the president's domestic agenda. Some parents  6  (tell) their children to resist the address.

A Colorado student stayed away,   7  (think) their parents should be  8  to push them more in their education rather than the president.

But   9   mother in North Carolina said she thought the   10  (speak) could have a positive impact. "When kids get to hear something about motivation from someone like that, it's fantastic," she said.

1. supportive          2. unless                3. delivered           4. that/which          5. for

6. told            7. thinking             8. those                 9. a                       10. speech

科目:高中英語 來源: 題型:閱讀理解

Language learning begins with listening. Children are greatly different in the amount of listening they do before they start speaking, and later starters are often long listeners .Most children will “obey” spoken instructions some time before they can speak, though the word “obey” is hardly accurate as a description of the eager and delighted cooperation usually shown by the child .Before they can speak, many children will also ask questions by gesture and by making questioning noises.

Any attempt to study the development from the noises babies make to their first spoken words leads to considerable difficulties. It is agreed that they enjoy making noises, and that during the first few months one or two noises sort themselves as particularly expressive as delight, pain, friendliness, and so on. But since these can’t be said to show the baby’s intention to communicate, they can hardly be regarded as early forms of language. It is agreed, too, that from about three months they play with sounds for enjoyment, and that by six months they are able to add new words to their store. This self-imitation(模仿)leads on to deliberate(有意的)imitation of sounds made or words spoken to them by other people. The problem then arises as to the point at which one can say that these imitations can be considered as speech.

It is a problem we need to get out teeth into. The meaning of a word depends on what a particular person means by it in a particular situation and it is clear that what a child means by a word will change as he gains more experience of the world .Thus the use at seven months of “mama” as a greeting for his mother cannot be dismissed as a meaningless sound simply because he also uses it at other times for his father, his dog, or anything else he likes. Playful and meaningless imitation of what other people say continues after the child has begun to speak for himself, I doubt, however whether anything is gained when parents take advantage of this ability in an attempt to teach new sounds.

1. Before children start speaking________________.

A. they need equal amount of listening         

B. they need different amounts of listening

C. they are all eager to cooperate with the adults by obeying spoken instructions

D. they can’t understand and obey the adult’s oral instructions

2. Children who start speaking late ________________.

A. may have problems with their listening

B. probably do not hear enough language spoken around them

C. usually pay close attention to what they hear

D. often take a long time in learning to listen properly

3. A baby’s first noises are ________________.

A. an expression of his moods and feelings  

B. an early form of language

C. a sign that he means to tell you something  

D. an imitation of the speech of adults

4. The problem of deciding at what point a baby’s imitations can be considered

as speech________________.

A. is important because words have different meanings for different people

B. is not especially important because the changeover takes place gradually

C. is one that should be properly understood because the meaning of words changes with age

D. is one that should be completely ignored(忽略)because children’s use of words is often meaningless

5 The speaker implies________________.

A. parents can never hope to teach their children new sounds

B. children no longer imitate people after they begin to speak

C. children who are good at imitating learn new words more quickly

D. even after they have learnt to speak, children still enjoy imitating

Dear Sir/Madame:

I suppose robots could be used as dust people during night time, as they don’t need to sleep and they are comparatively safe in polluted environment. …

                                    B

Dear Sir/Madame:

I suppose small remote control robots could be used as sea rescuing workers to search through wreckage(打撈)in a disaster looking for people in the sea. Bomb defusers (掃雷管) are now robots reducing the risk of losing a life. …

C

Dear Sir/Madame:

I suppose robots can do such dangerous jobs as skyscraper builders that would be safer for human beings. If injured or broken, they can be fixed easily. They can also work in unfavorable conditions such as dark, extreme heat, extreme cold etc.

D

Dear Sir/Madame:

I suppose Robots could be used as chemical researchers. At least they can help us carry harmful chemicals in a chemical plant or help to go into small areas inaccessible to us. It can be used to examine the inside of a nuclear reactor (核爐).

E

Dear Sir/Madame:

I suppose robots could be astronauts and they could travel very far away, like Pluto. If they can, we don’t need to especially train human beings to be astronauts as it cost quite a lot and it also takes many years to make a professional astronaut.

Dear Sir/Madame:

I suppose robots could be used as car assembly workers, in parts of a car building line. Assembly (裝配) lines make the process move faster, get more work done and cost less.  But the job is so mechanical and boring.

In order to go diving, you need some equipments.

First divers carry their backs a metal bottle, which

is filled of water. There’s enough air in it to

last about 40 minutes. Next, divers carry heavy metal

weights in a belt around its bodies. 

With these heavy weights they would float to the

surface.  You see, there are a lot of air in their

air bottles, and this will bring them up to the  

surface if they didn’t have any more weights. 

Mostly divers don’t go very deep.
