　　According to Alvin Toffler, author of the best seller Future Shock, America has become a throwaway society. Cardboard milk containers and rockets are only two examples. Such products are created for short - term or one - time use. They are becoming more numerous and more important to modem living. Toffler thinks that man's relationships with things will grow increasingly temporary.

　　As proof of this trend (趋势), Toffler gives examples of such products as disposable diapers (一次性尿布), kleenes (面巾纸), and non - returnable bottles. Vegetables are encased in plastic sacks. They can be dropped into a pan of boiling water and thrown away after the meal. TV dinners are cooked in throwaway trays. They are even served in them.

　　All these things are quickly used up. Then they are ruthlessly eliminated (永远消除). In Toffler's view, the American home has become little more than a large processing (加工) plant. Toffler further believes that his countrymen are developing throwaway values to go with their throwaway products. He says that easy disposability leads to shorter man - thing relationships. People were once linked with a few objects for a long time. Now they are linked with a series of objects for brief period.

第一节：阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

　　So long as teachers fail to distinguish between teaching and learning, they will continue to undertake to do for children that which only children can do for themselves. Teaching children to read is not passing reading on to them. It is certainly not endless hours spent in activities about reading. Douglas insists that“ reading cannot be taught directly and schools should stop trying to do the impossible”.

　　Teaching and learning are two entirely different processes. They differ in kind and function. The function of teaching is to create the conditions and the climate that will make it possible for children to devise the most efficient system for teaching themselves to read. Teaching is also public activity. It can be seen and observed.

　　Learning to read involves all that each individual does to make sense of the world of printed language. Almost all of it is private, for learning is an occupation of the mind, and that process is not open to public scrutiny.

　　If teacher and learner roles are not interchangeable ,what then can be done through teaching that will aid the child in the quest（探索）for knowledge? Smith has one principal rule for all teaching instructions. “Make learning to read easy, which means making reading a meaningful, enjoyable and frequent experience for children. ”

　　When the roles of teacher and learner are seen for what they are, and when both teacher and learner fulfill them appropriately, then much of the pressure and feeling of failure for both is eliminated. Learning to read is made easier when teachers create an environment where children are given the opportunity to solve the problem of leaning to read by reading.

　　A. inquiry　　　　　　　　　　　 B. observation

　　C. control　　　　　　　　　　　 D. suspicion

　　A. children become highly motivated

　　B. teacher and learner roles are interchangeable
