Kathy started at my nursery school at the age of three. She settled into the group easily, and would be first on the slide and highest up the climbing frame. She could put on her coat without help and not only fasten her own buttons but other children’s too.
She was a lovely child but unfortunately a scratcher. If anyone upset her or stood in her way, her right hand would flash out fast and scratch down the face of her playmates. Children twice her age would fly in fear from her.
This must have been very rewarding for Kathy but obviously it had to be stopped. All the usual ways failed and then I remembered an account by G Atkinson Highfield School, of how fights in the playground had been stopped. No punishment had been given, but the attacker had been ignored and the victims rewarded. So I decided to try out on Kathy.
With a pocketful of Smarties I followed Kathy around. She was so quick that it was impossible to prevent her scratching, but I was dertermined to stay within arm’s length all afternoon.
All was peaceful but then I saw Kathy’s hand moved and heard the scream. Gently I gathered up the little hurt one in my arms and said “Nice, nice sweetie” and then looked puzzled when she got nothing.
Soon came another scream, this time from John. While holding him in my arms, I said, “Look, Kathy, a nice Smartie for John” and put it into John’s mouth.
A smile of understanding flashed across Kathy’s face. Minutes later, she came to me and said loudly, “Give me a Smartie! I have hurt my finger!”
“No,” I replied, “you’ll get it if someone hurts you.”
On purpose, she turned and scratched a nearby boy, Tom, and waited quietly while I mothered and rewarded him, then she walked away.
She has never scratched a child since.
Parents who find older children bullying younger brothers and sisters might do well to replace shouting and punishment by rewarding and giving more attention to the injured ones. It’s certainly much easier and more effective.
From the passage, we know that Kathy is _______.
A. sensitive but slow
B. smart but a bit rude
C. independent but selfish
D. quick but sort of passive.
Kathy scratched Tom because _______.
A. she was angry at Tom, who was in her way
B. she wanted to get a Smartie from the teacher
C. she was in the habit of scratching other children
D. she wanted to know if the teacher meant what she had said
According to the passage, the underlined word “bullying” is closest in meaning to“_______”.
A. helping
B. punishing
C. hurting
D. protecting
The writer of this passage aims to recommend an approach to _______.
A. rewarding children’s good behavior
B correcting children’s bad behavior
C. punishing badly-behaved children
D. praising well-behaved children

With so many other ways to get information these days, do we still need books? Old habits die hard, and are passed down from generations. If your parents read to you, the chances are you will read to your children and so on. Well, that is an ideal world.
I think it comes from the educational side of life. If you have a good experience in school with books, then reading on after school years won't be a problem. For me I did very well in English language and literature as I had an inspiring and interesting English teacher who let us write our stories freely without correcting our spelling right away. The creative side of you should always come first and then the technical errors can be corrected.
Starting reading early is very important to children's relationship with books. If you casually read to your children then the books will have always been there in their lives and by the time reading comes along at the age of 4－5 years old it will all be fun and start to make sense. It has to be said that books are vital to learning.
Getting information and searching on the Internet is fine and necessary at this moment but it requires reading and reading requires practice, I believe we should relax whilst learning and digesting facts and information, and this can only be done with the simple book. Learn the basic habit of reading a book and then expand on and use the technology available, like e－books to make things convenient. But when you're not in a rush or whilst on a sunny beach, spending time with your children, what could be better than holding that book in your hands and feeling the achievement of getting to the last page?
1. The author of the passage thinks that ________.
A. the habit of reading should be passed down from generations
B. books are less important with so many other ways to get information
C. reading to children has become an old habit
D. it's difficult to get children to read books today
2. We can conclude from the second paragraph that ________.
A. children can develop the good habit of reading by themselves
B. it's not necessary to correct children's errors in reading
C. reading on after school years is becoming a difficult problem today
D. a good teacher can cultivate the habit of reading
3. According to the third paragraph, if you casually read to your children, they will ________.
A. form the habit of reading in time
B. have no idea of their relationship with books
C. lose the interest in reading books later
D. realize the importance of reading by the age of 4
4. What is the author's attitude towards the Internet?
A. He thinks it can only ruin people's pleasure in reading.
B. He thinks it is an important way to get information.
C. He thinks it will replace traditional books.
D. He believes we should limit the use of it.
5. We learn from the last paragraph that ________.
A. reading e－books is a better way to digest facts and information
B. the technology available can help us learn the basic habit of reading books
C. reading books on a sunny beach is only a way to kill time
D. reading can be a great pleasure when you are not in a hurry

The latest research suggests that the key factor separating geniuses from the merely accomplished is not I.Q., a generally bad predictor of success. Instead, it’s purposeful practice. Top performers spend more hours practising their craft. It you wanted to picture how a typical genius might develop, you’d take a girl who possessed a slightly above average language ability. It wouldn’t have to be a big talent, just enough so that she might gain some sense of distinction. Then you would want her to meet, say, a novelist, who coincidentally shared some similar qualities. Maybe the writer was from the same town, had the same family background, or shared the same birthday.
This contact would give the girl a vision of her future self. It would hive her some idea of a fascinating circle who might someday join. It would also help if one of her parents died when she was 12, giving her a strong sense of insecurity and fuelling a desperate need for success. Armed with this ambition, she would read novels and life stories of writers without end. This would give her a primary knowledge of her field. She’s be able to see new writing in deeper ways and quickly understand its inner workings.
Then she would practise writing. Her practice would be slow, painstaking and error-focused. By practising in this way, he delays the automatizing process. Her mind wants to turn conscious, newly learned skills into unconscious. Automatically performed skills. By practising slowly, by breaking skills down into tiny parts and repeating, she forces the brain to internalize a better pattern of performance. Then she would find an adviser who would provide a constant stream of feedback, viewing her performance form the outside, correcting the smallest errors, pushing her to take on tougher challenges. By now she is redoing problems—how do I get characters into a room—dozens and dozens of times. She is establishing habits of thought she can call upon in order to understand or solve future problems.
The primary quality our young writer possesses is not some mysterious genius. It’s the ability to develop a purposeful, laborious and boring practice routine; the latest research takes some of the magic out of great achievement. But it underlines a fact that is often neglected. Public discussion is affected by genetics and what we’re “hard-wired” to do. And it’s true that genes play a role in our capabilities. But the brain is also very plastic. We construct ourselves through behaviour.
1.The passage mainly deals with .
|
A．the function of I.Q. in cultivating a writer |
|
B．the relationship between genius and success |
|
C．the decisive factor in making a genius |

D．the way of gaining some sense of distinction |
2.By reading novels and writers’ stories, the girl could .
|
A．come to understand the inner structure of writing |
|
B．join a fascinating circle of writers someday |
|
C．share with a novelist her likes and dislikes |
|
D．learn from the living examples to establish a sense of security |
3.In the girl’s long painstaking training process, ________.
|
A．her adviser forms a primary challenging force to her success. |
|
B．her writing turns into an automatic pattern of performance |
|
C．she acquires the magic of some great achievement |
|
D．she comes to realize she is “hard-wired” to write |
4.What can be concluded from the passage?
|
A．A fuelling ambition plays a leading role in one’s success |
|
B．A responsible adviser is more important than the knowledge of writing. |
|
C．As to the growth of a genius, I.Q. Doesn’t matter, but just his/her effort. |
|
D．What really matters is what you do rather than who you are. |

第三部分：阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）
阅读下列短文，从每篇短文后所给各题的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
In this age of Internet chat, videogames and reality television, there is no shortage of mindless activities to keep a child occupied. Yet, despite the competition, my 8-year-old daughter Rebecca wants to spend her free time writing short stories. She wants to enter one of her stories into a writing contest, a competition she won last year.
As a writer I know about winning contests, and about losing them. I know what it is like to work hard on a story only to receive a rejection slip (退稿条) from the publisher. I also know the pressures of trying to live up to a reputation created by previous victories. What if she doesn’t win the contest again? That’s the strange thing about being a parent. So many of our own past scars and ruined hopes can surface.
A revelation (启示) came last week when I asked her, “Don’t you want to win again?”
“No”, she replied, “I just want to tell the story of an angel going to first grade.”
I had just spent weeks correcting her stories as she spontaneously (自发地) told them. Telling myself that I was merely an experienced writer guiding the young writer across the hall, I offered suggestions for characters, conflicts and endings for her tales. The story about a fearful angel starting first grade was quickly “guided” by me into the tale of a little girl with a wild imagination taking her first music lesson. I had turned her contest into my contest without even realizing it.
Staying back and giving kids space to grow is not as easy as it looks. Because I know very little about farm animals who use tools or angels who go to first grade, I had to accept the fact that I was co-opting (借用) my daughter’s experience.
While stepping back was difficult for me, it was certainly a good first step that I will quickly follow with more steps, putting myself far enough away to give her room but close enough to help if asked. All the while I will be reminding myself that children need room to experiment, grow and find their own voices.
1. What do we learn form the first paragraph?
A. Now too many entertainments take up too much time.
B. Children do find lots of fun in many mindless activities.
C. Rebecca is much too occupied to enjoy her free time.
D. Rebecca draws on a lot of online materials for her writing.

A. She was constantly under pressure of writing more.
B. Most of her stories had been rejected by publishers.
C. She did not quite live up to her reputation as a writer.
D. Her way to success was full of pains and frustrations.
3. Why did Rebecca want to enter this year’s writing contest?
A. She had won a prize in the previous contest.
B. She wanted to share her stories with readers.
C. She was sure of winning with her mother’s help.
D. She believed she possessed real talent for writing.
4. What’s the author’s advice for parents?
A. Children should be given every chance to voice their opinions.
B. Parents should keep an eye on the activities their kids engage in.
C. Children should be allowed freedom to grow through experience.
D. A writing career, though attractive, is not for every child to pursue.
