The kids in this village wear dirty,ragged clothes.They sleep beside cows and sheep in huts made of sticks and mud.They have no school.Yet they all can chant the English alphabet,and some can make words.
The key to their success:20 tablet computers(平板电脑) dropped off in their Ethiopian village in February by a U.S.group called One Laptop Per Child.
The goal is to find out whether kids using today’s new technology can teach themselves to read in places where no schools or teachers exist.The Massachusetts Institute of Technology researchers analyzing the project data say they’re already amazed.“What I think has already happened is that the kids have already learned more than they would have in one year of kindergarten,”said Matt Keller,who runs the Ethiopia program.
The fastest learner—and the first to turn on one of the tablets—is 8-year-old Kelbesa Negusse.The device’s camera was disabled to save memory,yet within weeks Kelbesa had figured out its workings and made the camera work.He called himself a lion,a marker of accomplishment in Ethiopia.
With his tablet,Kelbesa rearranged the letters HSROE into one of the many English animal names he knows.Then he spelled words on his own.“Seven months ago he didn’t know any English.That’s unbelievable,”said Keller.
The project aims to get kids to a stage called “deep reading,”where they can read to learn.It won’t be in Amharic,Ethiopia’s first language,but in English,which is widely seen as the ticket to higher paying jobs.
1.How does the Ethiopia program benefit the kids in the village?
A.It trains teachers for them.
B.It contributes to their self-study.
C.It helps raise their living standards.
D.It provides funds for building schools.
2.What can we infer from Keller’s words in Paragraph 3?
A.They need more time to analyze data.
B.More children are needed for the research.
C.He is confident about the future of the project.
D.The research should be carried out in kindergartens.
3.It amazed Keller that with the tablet Kelbesa could .
A.learn English words quickly
B.draw pictures of animals
C.write letters to researchers
D.make phone calls to his friends
4.What is the aim of the project?
A.To offer Ethiopians higher paying jobs.
B.To make Amharic widely used in the world.
C.To help Ethiopian kids read to learn in English.
D.To assist Ethiopians in learning their first language.

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中选出最佳选项。
Mozart was a great man born with a given talent.He was writing songs at the age of five and performing before the queen by the time he was six years old.Early on,Mozart realised what his talents were,practiced or honed what he was born to do and used his natural abilities to create amazing pieces of music.
Mozart was not the first to be born with natural talents and he wasn’t the last.We all have them.We only need to discover what they are and use them to the best of our abilities.You have been given amazing gifts that are meant to be shared with the world.Your job is to find out what those talents are and master them.
Finding your natural talents may not be an easy task.Perhaps your parents except fewer wouldn’t approve of(赞成) your artistic ability to paint or sing,because they want you to be a successful doctor or lawyer.Maybe your gift wouldn’t seem to have the ability to bring the kind of wealth you hope.These may be excuses;it’s up to you.Have you ever noticed that when you engage in an activity in which you are naturally talented,you feel active and excited?That’s a sign that these are the things you should do.Discover your brilliance(才华) in life and practice,practice,practice.
Look at the world’s greatest athletes.They practice what they’re naturally good at,and what they love.You don’t see Jordan sitting trying to study DNA.If that was something he was talented at,that’s what he would be doing.But it’s not.He’s a brilliant athlete.He sticks to what he does best and he realises his dream.
There are only two steps to success—discover your brilliance and perfect it.

Every spring Beijing is choked by huge sandstorms.The sky turns a strange and frightening yellow colour as clouds of sand sweep down from the deserts of Mongolia and north-western China.Strong winds blow up the dust and cover everything in sight—in 2006,a storm dumped 330,000 tonnes of dust on Beijing in one night.
The number of sandstorms has grown alarmingly over the years as the deserts have expanded.This is partly man-made and partly because of climate(气候).Many grasslands have been overgrazed(过度放牧)by sheep and goats,or ploughed up,leaving the soil dangerously exposed.Too much water has been taken out of rivers,and the situation is made worse by increasingly long-lasting droughts that have affected the northern half of China as the climate grows warmer and drier.The result is probably the worst loss of rich land to deserts in the world and a dust bowl of extremely large proportions.The nearest sand dunes to Beijing are now only 70 km away and drifting closer each year.At this rate,the desert will reach the city by 2040,and Beijing could become the world’s first modern city to disappear under sand.To hold back the deserts,a huge programme of forest planting called the Great Green Wall has been under way for over 30 years.The barrier(隔离带)is planned to be 4,500 km long when completed in several decades(十年),but the drought is having a very bad effect on the trees and the deserts carry on growing.
1.All the following are the reasons for the expansion of the deserts EXCEPT .
A.the soil of the grasslands is exposed
B.too much water in rivers has been used
C.it doesn’t rain for a long time
D.the climate in northern China is colder and drier
2.At what speed do the nearest sand dunes move towards Beijing according to the passage?
A.More than 15 km a year.
B.More than 2 km a month.
C.More than 2 km a year.
D.More than 15 km a month.
3.What is the purpose of the huge programme“the Great Green Wall”?
A.To protect the Great Wall.
B.To plant as many trees as possible along the Great Wall.
C.To stop the deserts from moving towards Beijing.
D.To plant as many trees as possible in Beijing.
4.In which section can this passage most likely be found in a newspaper?
A.Science and technology.
B.Weather.
C.Environment.
D.Health and life.

The names of the hurricanes are chosen from a list of names in alphabetical(字母的)order.Female and male names are chosen alternatively.For example,the first hurricane of the year will be called “Alexandra”,the second “Bernard”,the third “Catherine”,etc.
When newspapers and radio describe the damage caused by a hurricane named Hazel,girls named Hazel are probably teased(取笑)by their friends.To keep out of trouble,the Weather Bureau says,“Any resemblance between hurricane names and the names of particular girls is purely accidental(偶然的).”
Some women became angry because hurricanes are given their names,but many other women are proud to see their names make headlines.They don’t even care that they are the names of destructive storms.Because more women seem to listen to like it than dislike it,the Weather Bureau has decided to continue using girl’s names for hurricanes.
In some ways a hurricane is like a person.After it is born,it grows and develops,and then becomes old and dies.Each hurricane has a character of its own.Each follows its own path through the world,and people remember it long after it has gone.So it is natural to give hurricanes names,and to talk about them as if they were alive.
1.The underlined word “resemblance” probably means .
A.sameness B.difference
C.trouble D.success
2.What happens to girls named Hazel according to the passage?
A.They suffer from hurricanes.
B.The Weather Bureau looks for them.
C.Others often make fun of them.
D.They can’t find boyfriend.
3.According to the passage,which is more reasonable?
A.Some women feel unhappy because hurricanes are given their names.
B.A lot of men complain the Weather Bureau.
C.Many women want to be known.
D.All the hurricanes are caused by women.
4.Public opinions make the Weather Bureau .
A.consider the disagreement of some women
B.go on naming hurricanes after women
C.name hurricanes after men
D.look for a new method to name hurricanes
5.It is natural to give hurricane names because .
A.they become old and die
B.all of them should be remembered
C.each hurricane has its own day to come
