21、One of the most important ways to learn and master the English language is to read, read, and read. It is said that a good reader is also a good writer and a good speaker. However, in today’s world, reading is something that most children dislike doing.
There are simply so many distractions (分心的事物) that books, magazines, and newspapers are often ignored and they are in favor of video games and movies. And while video games and movies also play a role in helping the child learn the English language, they still can’t quite compare to reading.
And as a result, kids are learning less and less. Take a look at an elementary level text book. You’ll notice that the books for elementary students are filled with pictures and colours. Those pictures and colours in the elementary level text books aren’t there just for the sake (缘由) of design. Colours and pictures make us more engaged in the act of learning grammar. They catch our attention and help us retain (保留) more of what we read. This is especially true for little children who enjoy fun English.
Children are quite easily distracted. When you ask them to sit down and read quietly, their minds will often wander and it won’t take long before you find them doodling (涂鸦) and not doing what you told them to do. But if a book is colourful enough to catch a kid’s attention, then you’ll have a better chance at getting the kid to sit down long enough to learn English.
The same principle holds true for interactivity (互动). Like colours and pictures, interactive reading materials like English songs for kids also get the child engaged in what he or she is learning. Interactive reading materials get the child to focus since using them is almost like playing.

22、How to say Hello in Spanish?
You probably already know basic greetings like “¡Hola!” and “¿Cómo estás”. There are also various ways to say “Hi”, “Hello”, or “How are you” in Spanish. Learning how to greet someone is the first step to make a conversation in Spanish. Here is a list of Spanish greetings that you can use in formal and informal situations:
1.¡Hola! = Hello/Hi
This is the most common greeting in Spanish. It can be used to greet any person in any situation.
Pronounce it “oh-la” and keep the “h” silent.
2.¿Qué pasa? = What’s happening?
¿Qué tal?/¿Qué hay? = What’s up?
¿Qué haces? = What are you doing?/What are you up to?
These expressions are often used when talking to your friends or acquaintances.
3.¿Cómo está? = How are you? (formal)
¿Cómo estás? = How are you? (informal)
Saying “How are you” is also a way to greet someone in Spanish. However, in Spanish, you need to change the form of “estar” depending on the person you’re greeting.
When you are talking to someone older than you or someone in a position of authority, you can say “¿Cómo está?” or “¿Cómo está usted?” which both mean “How are you”.
When you are talking to someone of your age or younger, say “¿Cómo estás?”.
When you greet a group of people, you would say ¿Cómo están?. The “n” at the end shows that you just said hello to everyone.
【1】Which pronunciation of ¡Hola! is wrong?
A．O la.
B．HO la.
C．EO la.
D．OR la.
【2】Acquaintances can take place of _________.
A．teens
B．relatives
C．passer-by
D．street performer
【3】How can we describe Spanish by this article?
A．Difficult.
B．Polite.
C．Practical.
D．Interesting.
23、From the very beginning of school we make books and reading a constant source of possible failure and public humiliation. When children are little we make them read aloud, before the teacher and other children, so that we can be sure they “know” all the words they are reading. This means that when they don't know a word, they are going to make a mistake, right in front of everyone. After having taught fifth-grade classes for four years, I decided to try at all costs to rid them of their fear and dislike of books, and to get them to read oftener and more adventurously.
One day soon after school had started, I said to them, “Now I’m going to say something about reading that you have probably never heard a teacher say before. I would like you to read a lot of books this year, but I want you to read them only for pleasure. I am not going to ask you questions to find out whether you understand the books or not. If you understand enough of a book to enjoy it and want to go on reading it, that’s enough for me. Also I’m not going to ask you what words mean.”
The children sat stunned and silent. Was this a teacher talking? One girl, who had just come to us from a school where she had had a very hard time, looked at me steadily for a long time after I had finished. Then, still looking at me, she said slowly and seriously, “Mr Holt, do you really mean that?” I said just as seriously, “I mean every word of it.”
During the spring she really astonished me. One day, she was reading at her desk. From a glimpse of the illustrations I thought I knew what the book was. I said to myself, “It can’t be.” and went to take a closer look. Sure enough, she was reading Moby Dick, in edition with woodcuts. I said, “Don’t you find parts of it rather heavy going?” She answered, “Oh, sure, but I just skip over those parts and go on to the next good part.”
This is exactly what reading should be and in school so seldom is, an exciting, joyous adventure. Find something, dive into it, take the good parts, skip the bad parts, get what you can out of it, go on to something else. How different is our mean-spirited, picky insistence that every child get every last little scrap of “understanding” that can be dug out of a book!
【1】According to the passage, children’s fear and dislike of books may result from________.
A．reading little and thinking little
B．reading often and adventurously
C．being made to read too much
D．being made to read aloud before others
【2】Upon hearing the teacher’s talk, the children probably felt that________.
A．it sounded stupid
B．it was not surprising at all
C．it sounded too good to be true
D．it was no different from other teachers' talk
【3】Which of the following statements about the girl is TRUE according to the passage?
A．She skipped over those easy parts while reading.
B．She had a hard time finishing the required reading tasks.
C．She learned to appreciate some parts of the difficult books.
D．She turned out to be a top student after coming to this school.
【4】From the teacher’s point of view, ________.
A．children cannot tell good parts from bad parts while reading
B．children should be left to decide what to read and how to read
C．reading is never a pleasant and inspiring experience in school
D．reading involves understanding every little piece of information
24、While more and more scientists are working on nonfiction science books for the general reader, I think we also need a change.
The typical expert-voiced monologues (独白) that scientists write are a wonderful component of the engagement effort, but the form is limited. Such books are largely ready people already willing to pick up a science book, or who are open to the authoritative academic’s voice telling them how to think. There are plenty of people who can engage with science but who find those kinds of books a sometimes unwelcome reminder of the classroom.
Following from my belief that science is for everyone, I suggest that publishers need to work with scientists to expand the kinds of books on offer, assured that there is an audience for them. Progress is possible. Many years ago, I realized it is hard to find books on the nonfiction science shelf that let readers see themselves as part of the conversation about science. So I thought about an entire book of conversations about science taking place between ordinary people. While “overhearing” those conversations, readers learn some science ideas. It’s a resurrection of the dialogue form, known to the ancient Greeks, and to Galileo, as a device for exchanging ideas, but with contemporary settings: cafes, restaurants, trains and so on.
I decided it would be engaging for the reader to actually see who’s having those conversations, and where, instead of describing them in words. This led me to realize that I was thinking about a powerful form of visual storytelling: Graphic novels for adults have matured and exploded in popularity in recent years. Spiegelman’s “Maus: A Survivor’s Tale” and Bechdel’s “Fun Home” are just two well-known examples.
But the storytelling tools of the graphic book have been little used to convey nonfiction science ideas to a general adult audience. The vast majority of contemporary graphic books with a science focus are presented instead as “explainer/adventure comics” for younger audiences. This is an important genre, but graphic books about science should not be limited to that.
And while there are several excellent graphic books for adults that include science, they typically focus instead on the lives of famous scientists, with discussion of the science itself as a secondary goal. Some excellent recent examples that balance the two aspects well include Ottaviani arid Myrick’s “Feyrunan” and Doxiadis and Papadimitriou’s “Logicomix”. The scarcity of science-focused non-biographical (非自传体的) graphic books for adults is especially true in my field of physics. So I decided that here was an opportunity to broaden the kinds of nonfiction science book available to engage the public.
【1】It can be inferred from Para.2 that the expert-voiced monologues don’t appeal to _________.
A．those who are interested in scientific ideas
B．those who have no talents for scientific research
C．those who would like to know how scientists think
D．those who think science classes in school are uninteresting
【2】The word “resurrection” (in paragraph 3) most probably means _________.
A．announcement
B．comeback
C．explanation
D．representation
【3】According to the writer, which might be the best form of nonfiction science books for general readers?
A．A collection of scientists’ life stories.
B．A book written by a Nobel Prize winner.
C．An adventure novel focusing on science.
D．A comic book conveying scientific ideas.
【4】What is passage mainly about?
A．A well-known writer who writes to promote science among the public.
B．A possible way to get nonfiction science books to appeal to the public.
C．A new approach to have the public get interested in new scientific ideas.
D．An easy access for the public to have a general idea of what science is.

26、阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Twenty years ago, I drove a taxi for a living. One night I went to pick up a passenger at 2:30 a. m. When I arrived, I found the building was dark except for a single light in a ground floor window.
I walked to the door and knocked, “Just a minute, ”answered a weak, elderly voice.
After a long time, the door opened. A small woman in her eighties stood before me. By her side was a small suitcase.
I took the suitcase to the car, and then returned to help the woman. She took my arm and we walked slowly towards the car. She kept thanking me for my kindness. “It’s nothing, “I told her. ”I just try to treat my passengers the way I would want my mother treated.”
“ Oh, you’re such a good man. ” She said. When we got into the taxi, she gave me an address, and then asked, “ Could you drive through downtown?”
“ It’s not the shortest way, ” I answered quickly.
“ Oh, I’m in no hurry, ” she said. “ I’m on my way to a hospice(临终安养院).” I saw her eyes shining with tears.I don’t have any family left. The doctor says I don’t have very long.”
I quietly reached over and shut off the meter(计价器). For the next two hours, we drove through the city. She showed me the building where she had once worked, the neighborhood where she had lived, and the furniture shop that had once been a ballroom where she had gone dancing as a girl.
Sometimes she’d ask me to slow down in front of a particular building and would sit staring into the darkness, saying nothing. At dawn, she suddenly said, “ I’m tired. Let’s go now. ” We drove in silence according to the address she had given me.
“ How much do l owe you?” she asked. “ Nothing. ” I said.
“ You have to make a living, ”she answered. “ Oh, there are other passengers, ” I answered. She said thanks to me, but she looked so sad.
