I spotted (发现;认出) him at the checkout counter, bagging at No.14. His arms shook violently as he placed a box of eggs into a plastic bag. He wore a name card upon which he had wiritten “Jerry” in kindergarten handwriting. He looked middle-aged but his mental age must have been about 12.
Ever since I smiled at him the first time he bagged my groceries at my local supermarket, Jerry has followed me around like an adoring fan. His lack of boundaries makes me uncomfortable. I don’t know how to avoid being noticed by him. I don’t want to speak to the manager — my complaint could get him fired. So I started avoiding him.
I can still remember the hurt I felt when I was 10 and our neighbor Mrs. Ward didn’t respond when I said hello with David and Diane. Instead, she hurried out of the supermarket, leaving me holding my brother and sister’s hands. I realized at that moment that I hated Mrs. Ward’s reaction. Why, then, years later, was I acting as she had?
I picked up a magazine Real Simple. The beautiful photos did nothing to straighten out the guilt in me. I was being ridiculous. The last three times I have seen Jerry, I rushed. There are other stores, but I chose this one because it employs people with disabilities. I want people like my brothers to have jobs. I don’t want them to be ignored, the way I am avoiding Jerry.
1.We know from the text that Jerry ________
A. suffered from fragile X syndrome
B. had a mental age not matching his real age
C. couldn’t write his name
D. only had a kindergarten education
2.Why did the author feel uncomfortable?
A. Jerry was like a fan of her
B. Real Simple couldn’t straighten out her guilt
C. Jerry always stepped on her feet
D. Jerry didn’t keep a proper distance from her
3.We can infer from the text that ________.
A. there are many people like Mrs. Ward
B. the store the author visited treated the disabled equally
C. most employees in the supermarket are disabled
D. the store manager ignored people with disabilities
4.What is the author’s attitude towards people with disabilities?
A. cautious B. unconcerned
C. ridiculous D. caring

Reading for pleasure is declining among primary-age pupils, and increasing numbers of "time poor" parents are dropping the practice of sharing bedtime stories with their children once they start school.
Research presented to a conference last week found that, while parents read to preschoolers , this later tails off, and by the final year of primary school only around 2% read to their children every day. Once children can read skillfully, parents tend to step back, and this usually happens at the age of seven or eight. The report also found that 820-/o of teachers blame the government's " target-. driven" education policies for the fact that fewer children are reading for pleasure.
They believe that a straitjacket (束缚) of strictly organized schooling is containing young people's ability to read more widely. Two-thirds of teachers surveyed said they lacked time in the school day to introduce a variety of books and that this was a " major obstacle to being able to develop a level of reading". Teachers also cited as main factors the reduction in the number of school librarians, who could put interesting books before children, and the rise in "screen time", switching children from reading to playing games.
The majority of teachers said the curriculum's (课程) " emphasis on reading as a skill to be mastered" was increasing the pressure. This was compounded by parents who saw reading just as a focus of learning, a skill critical to career advancement in a competitive world.
Reading habits and the digital revolution in publishing were key topics of debate at the conference. The theme of the lack of British culture was supported by children's writer Frank Cottrell Boyce, who wrote the scripts(手稿 ) for the opening and closing ceremonies of the 2012 Olympics.
“We discovered the whole nation had forgotten that they did the industrial revolution," he said.
"Books are so central to it; books can be written by anyone. A lot of the pleasure of a book is listening to somebody read it to you. "
"We found a real love of reading al110ng teachers, and a strong desire ,to encourage more children to read for pleasure ,”said Rob Cheney," However ,the teachers also had an overpowering sense of frustration with their situation." "Touch-screen phone and tablets are naturally attractive to children," the survey said, and predicted a period of awkwardness as everyone else adapts. By 2018, children's television will have adopted the presence of this second screen ,and it "will be strange not to have children ,at home drawing along on tablets and then having these appearing live in the show ".
The hope is “that user-friendly screens could, if material is adapted and downloaded easily, present an opportunity for more ambitious publishing - for example, books children can either read or choose to have read to them; or digital books with moving pictures instead of photos to clarify factual and scientific points. Parental controls that are easy to use would be key, the conference was told, such as "a warning for when devices use the Wi-Fi, especially after bedtimes", to allow parents to shut off access to children in the home.
1.What leads to parents' dropping the practice of sharing bedtime stories with their children?
A. Children have less time to spend with their parents after they start school.
B. Parents chink it unnecessary to do so when children can read themselves.
C. The government’s education policies have placed much burden on children.
D. Children don't like parents reading stories to them when they are seven or eight.
2.Which of the following is not teachers' point of view?
A. Children are prevented from reading widely enough in school.
B. Schools pay attention to reading skills instead of reading for fun.
C. Playing video games reduces children's time spent on reading.
D. School libraries can't provide good books for lack of money.
3.The word "compounded" (Paragraph 4) most probably means ______.
A. worsened B. preserved C. reduced D. improved
4.It can be inferred from the article that _____
A. children don't like reading because books are not attractive
B. British people enjoyed reading books very much in the past
C. teachers forbid their students co read more books for fun
D. children should enjoy more freedom to use the Wi-Fi at home
5.What is the passage mainly about?
A. Parents should set a limit to their children's using electric devices at hoI11e.
B. Children are encouraged to read as l11any interesting books as they can.
C. Children miss out on pleasures of reading a good book in modern life.
D. Experts appeals to the government to reduce the heavy burden on children.
