Voices and fingers usually prevent us from reading fast． Young children and even old people learning to read move their fingers along the line of the piece being read, pointing to each word, sometimes even each letter one after another, and saying them to themselves in a low voice． Sometimes the reader makes no sound at all, but keeps moving the inside part of his mouth to pronounce silently． However, no matter how the reader moves his mouth while reading, seen or unseen, visible or invisible, it will be impossible for him to reach a speed of more than about 280 w．p．m．
Reading must be done by seeing instead of with any sort of sound-producing． The reader must be able to read more than one word at a time． When looking straight or directly at only one word in a line of reading, one can clearly see at least two other words on both sides in the same line． In other words, the reader can read three words at one glance． Thus looking straight at one word one can at least take in a whole phrase or even a complete short sentence on one line． Very often less than three eye movements will cover a whole line．
1． Pointing to the lines of a reading piece _____ reading．
A． slows down B． speeds up C． improves D． helps
2． ____a slow way of reading．
A． Reading aloud is B． Moving fingers along the lines is
C． Neither A nor B is D． Both A and B are
3． Taking in _____ at a glance is required in order to read fast．
A． two words B． two phrases C． three words D． three phrases
4． Reading at a speed of about ____ words a minute is still regarded as slow．
A 255B．285 C． 355D． 385
5． Fast reading at an average speed probably requires _____ eye movements for a whole line．
A ． oneB． two C． three D． four

New York’s streets were covered by people dressed in elephant costumes (服装) and others waving antiwar posters with pictures of US President George W. Bush on them last week. But this was no carnival (狂欢节) – it was the Republican Party’s National Convention (共和党全国大会), which attracted thousands of protestors (抗议者). It was the largest protest ever at a US political convention, with at least 120,000 people marching through Manhattan on August 29. They demanded that the US leave Iraq and a new president be chosen.
The Republicans say the opposition – Democrat Party (民主党) encouraged the people on to the streets. They believe it is a democratic move to help win presidential election, to be held on November 2. The election is described as “the decisive battle between donkey and elephant”. The two animals are the symbols of the two major political parties in the US. The elephant represents (象征) the Republicans, whose candidate (侯选人), President George W. Bush, is trying to defeat the donkey to win his second them. The donkey represents the democrats, whose candidate, John Kerry, is trying to kick the elephant out of the White House.
Republicans think the elephant is powerful and clever, but the Democrats argue it is stupid and conservative (守旧的). In return, the Republicans regard the donkey as stubborn (倔强的) and silly but the Democrats say it is humble, plain, smart and courageous.
The Republicans have been sending emails to Bush supporters and journalists with the heading, “An Elephant Never Forgets”, said party spokeswoman Heather Layman. Elephants are known for their long memories. The emails suggest that Bush will keep his promises, while Kerry will not stick to his words.
It is interesting that both symbols were created by a single person, Thomas Nast, a famous political cartoonist of the late 19th century. During the election in 1874, Nast drew a cartoon, in which a donkey in a lion’s skin frightened an elephant marked “Republican”.
What does “kick the elephant out of the White House” mean?
A. Drive the animal out of the White House. B. Drive President Bush out of power.
C. Keep the elephant out of the White House. D. Insist on Bush’s being elected.
In the eyes of the Republicans, the donkey is considered as .
A. clever B. foolish C. polite D. brave
Which of the following is NOT true?
A. The same artist created the two symbols.
B. The emails suggest Kerry will not carry out his promises.
C. “An Elephant Never Forgets” means that an elephant has a good memory.
D. John Kerry is a Democrat.
