Dyslexia is a problem that restricts the ability to recognize words and connect sounds with letters when people read. People with this learning disorder may also have problems when they write. Dyslexia is not related to eyesight or intelligence. The problem involves areas of the brain that process language. Brain scientists are studying whether they can predict which young children may struggle with reading to provide them with early help. John Gabrieli at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology is leading the study of five-year-olds in about twenty schools in the Boston area.

They studied in the schools with kindergartens.And for all the children joining in the study, they give them a brief set of paper-and-pencil tests to look at which children appear to be at some risk for struggling to read. So far, fifty of them have been examined in a scanner, a special machine, to show brain activity. Written tests are not always able to identify dyslexia or other problems, while brain scans may offer a more scientific way to identify problems. And with reading problems, early identification is important. When it comes to helping children overcome reading difficulties, the younger the child, the more effective they are.

Reading problems are not usually identified until a child is in the third or fourth grade. The later children are recognized as poor readers,the less treatment can help. And, as Professor Gabrieli points out, poor reading can make education a struggle. Reading is everything. Even math and science have textbooks.

While the children are given tasks related to reading, the brain scans measure the extent to which certain parts of the brain become active while the children do the work. The scientists say they are pleased with early results from the study, but have a long way to go.

1. Dyslexia affects the part of brain concerning ________.

A. eyesight B. intelligence

C. language D. emotion

2. Dyslexia problems are more likely to be identified through ________.

A. speech contests

B. reading efficiency

C. listening comprehension

D. brain scans

3.According to the passage, which of the followings has the best time to overcome reading difficulties?

A. Tom, a boy in the kindergarten.

B. Kate, a high school leaver.

C. Jane, a primary school student.

D. Steve, a man in his thirties.

4. What is the passage mainly about?

A. An effective way to identity Dyslexia at an early stage.

B. A learning disorder involving one’s intelligence.

C. Dyslexia — a problem affecting one’s reading and writing.

D. A possible solution to the problems related to Dyslexia.

When the weather is getting cold, it is good to have something warm eat. Hotpot is the delicious choice.

Hotpot has a long history in China. Eating hotpot are more than just feeding yourself. Families or friends sit around a table and eating from a steaming pot. They cook, chat and sometimes drink together.

You can put almost anything else in a hotpot. Meat, seafood, vegetable, tofu and bean noodles are the most popular ingredients. Meat, especially beef and mutton, is often cut as thinner as paper. It should not be cooked too long, otherwise it will lose their tenderness.

If you don’t like spicy food, you can still join in. Apart to non-spicy soup, there is a kind of hotpot what is split into two. One side is spicy, while the other side isn’t. So everyone can have a good time while eating and getting warm!

The London Underground (The Tube)

The main source of public transport in London revolves around the Underground (or the Tube as it is known to Londoners). This network of 12 lines can get you to most places in the center of the city quickly.

It’s most necessary to get an Oyster Card or a Travelcard. Single tickets are priced starting at the intentionally absurd (荒谬的) price of £ 4.80 (Zone 1-3), if you pay cash. Using an Oyster card, a single fare is £ 2.30 if you are traveling within the central Zone 1.

On hot days it is also advisable to take a bottle of water with you as Underground trains are not air-conditioned.

Last trains leave central London at around 00:30 weekdays, 23:30 Sundays. First trains leave the suburbs at around 5:00.

The Bus System

Outside the center of London, Tube stations are farther apart, so buses help fill the gaps. Also, the bus offers a cheaper alternative, even if it is a slower journey.

Cash fares for London buses have been abolished — you cannot pay cash. A bus fare costs £ 1.50 if using only buses, the fare is capped at £ 4.40 per day for Oyster or contactless users.

River Services

There are a number of different routes along the River Thames. The faster commuter services operate all day from Greenwich Pier to Embankment and from Putney and Chelsea harbour to Blackfriars during Peak Hours only. These routes will pass a number of places of interest including the Houses of Parliament and London Bridge. A return fare from Putney to Blackfriars will cost about 12 pounds.

National Rail

Once you leave Central London or if you are traveling South of the River Thames, the best public transport option will often be National Rail. There are numerous connections to the Rail System from the Tube. Travelcards can be used for travel on the National Rail (but not the Heathrow Express). Oyster cards can be used up to Zone 6 except certain services including Heathrow Express, Heathrow Connect and HSI.

1.When taking the London Underground, ________.

A. you should buy tickets with cash

B. you can save more money with a single ticket

C. you can go to any place in London quickly

D. you are advised to take a bottle of water along on hot days

2.If you use river services along the River Thames, you will pass ________.

A. London BridgeB. Stratford

C. Canary WharfD. Tower Hill

3.To travel South of the River Thames, it is recommended that you use ________.

A. The London UndergroundB. The Bus System

C. The DLR and the TramD. National Rail

Maybe ten-year-old Elizabeth put it best when she said to her father,“But,Dad,you-can’t-be-healthy-if-you’re-dead.”Dad,in a hurry to get home before dark so he could go for a run,had forgotten to wear his safety belt—a mistake 75% of the US population makes every day.The big question is why.

There have been many myths about safety belts ever since their first appearance in cars some forty years ago.The following are three of the most common.

Myth Number One:It’s best to be “thrown clear” of a serious accident.

Truth:Sorry,but any accident serious enough to “throw you clear”is also going to be serious enough to give you a very bad landing.And chances are you’ll have traveled through a windshield(挡风玻璃) or door to do it.Studies show that chances of dying after a car accident are twenty-five times greater in cases where people are “thrown clear”.

Myth Number Two:Safety belts “trap” people in cars that are burning or sinking in water.

Truth:Sorry again,but studies show that people knocked unconscious(无知觉的) due to not wearing safety belts have a greater chance of dying in these accidents.People wearing safety belts are usually protected to the point of having a clear head to free themselves from such dangerous situation,not to be trapped in them.

Myth Number Three:Safety belts aren’t needed at speeds of less than 30 miles per hour(mph).

Truth:When two cars traveling at 30 mph hit each other,an unbelted driver would meet the windshield with a force equal to diving head first into the ground from a height of 10 meters.

1.Why did Elizabeth say to her father, “But,Dad,you can’t be healthy if you’re dead.”?

A.He was driving at great speed.

B.He was running across the street.

C.He didn’t have his safety belt on.

D.He didn’t take his medicine on time.

2.The reason Father was in a hurry to get home was that he ________.

A.wasn’t feeling very well

B.hated to drive in the dark

C.wanted to take some exercise

D.didn’t want to be caught by the police

3.According to the text, to be “thrown clear” of a serious accident is very dangerous because you ________.

A.may be knocked down by other cars

B.may get seriously hurt being thrown out of the car

C.may find it impossible to get away from the seat

D.may get caught in the car door

4.Some people prefer to drive without wearing a safety belt because they believe ________.

A.the belt prevents them from escaping in an accident

B.they will be unable to think clearly in an accident

C.they will be caught when help comes

D.cars catch fire easily

Dear Grace,

How is everything going with you?

I’ve been in Russia for two months. This is the first time that I’ve been away my family for such a long time. With the help of Katia, a roommate of me, I soon get used to live without my parents around. Katia, like many other Russian girls, are nice and lively. We became friend shortly after we met each other. Although her English is a little hardly to understand, we enjoy chatting and we usually talk a lot about our own family. We’re both surprising that Chinese culture and Russian culture were so different. Now, we are planning a small party for the next Sunday. There, Katia will introduce me to some of her friends, one of who has been to China several times. I just can’t wait.

Write back to me as soon as possible.

Yours,

Betty
