24、 There is a popular belief among parents that schools are no longer interested in spelling. No school I have taught in has ever ignored( 忽视) spelling or considered it unimportant as a basic skill. There are, however, different ideas about how to teach it, or how much priority(优先) it must be given over in general language development and writing ability. The problem is how to encourage a child to express himself freely and confidently in writing without holding him back with the complexities(复杂性) of spelling?
If spelling becomes the only focus of his teacher’s interest, clearly a clever child will be likely to “play safe”. He will tend to write only words that he can spell, choosing to avoid adventurous language. That’s why teachers often encourage the early use of dictionaries and pay attention to content rather than technical(技术上的) ability.
I was once shocked to read on the bottom of a sensitive piece of writing about a personalexperience: “This work is terrible! There are too many spelling mistakes and your writing is terrible”. It may have been a sharp criticism of the pupil’s technical abilities in writing, but it was also a sad reflection on the teacher who had omitted( 省略 ) to read the composition, which contained some beautiful expressions of the child’s deep feelings. The teacher was not wrong to pay attention to the mistakes, but if his priorities had centered on the child’s ideas, an expression of his disappointment with the presentation would have given the pupil more motivation to explore improvement.
【1】Teachers are different in their opinions about .
A.the difficulties in teaching spelling
B.the necessity of teaching spelling
C.the complexities of the basic writing skills
D.the role of spelling in general language development
【2】The underlined expression “play safe” probably means “ ”.
A.to write carefully
B.to avoid using words he/she is not sure of
C.to do as teachers say
D.to use dictionaries frequently
【3】Teachers encourage the use of dictionaries so that .
A.teachers will have less trouble in correcting mistakes
B.students will have more confidence in writing
C.students will be able to express their ideas more freely
D.students will learn to be independent of teachers
【4】The main idea discussed in the passage is .
A.the relationship between spelling and the content of a composition
B.the importance of developing writing skills
C.the correct way of marking compositions
D.the complexities of spelling

26、 Delia was a young pianist. Her husband, Joe, was a young artist.
Each of them was taking lessons: Joe with a famous art teacher, and Delia with a great pianist from Germany. Their teachers were the very best, so lessons were expensive, more than they could really afford, but…when you love your art, nothing is too much.
But soon the money began to run out, and they couldn’t afford the lessons any more.
Then one day Delia came back home and told Joe that she had met a man whose daughter, Sally, wanted to learn the piano, and he was going to pay her $ 50 an hour.
“Delia,” Joe said, “I’ll be much happier if you keep up your lessons,” Delia said it didn’t matter. “When I’ve had some money, I’ll continue.” But Joe also decided to stop his lessons, to draw pictures and sell them.
A few days later, Joe came home and proudly took $ 200 from his pocket. “I met a man from Vermont,” he said, “who bought one of my pictures. And he wants to buy more!”
_________________.They didn’t have to worry any more about money.
Then, one day, Joe came home and saw that Delia’s hand was wrapped in a bandage(绷带). He asked her what had happened. “Oh,” said Delia. “My student, Sally, asked me to make some coffee for her. I dropped the coffee and burned my hand. Sally went straight to the drugstore and got this bandage for me. ”
“Delia, what have you been doing the last two weeks?” Joe asked. She tried not to tell him, but the tears came. “Oh Joe, I couldn’t get any students, so I worked as a waitress in a restaurant. Today, I burned my hand with hot water. So I can’t work any more. But we’ll still have money from the man in Vermont, won’t we?”
Joe looked at her. “There’s no man in Vermont, ” he said. “I’ve been working in a drugstore, and today someone came in to buy bandages for a woman who’s burned her hand. So when I saw you, well, I guessed.”
They both laughed.

27、
Fossil of dinosaur killed in asteroid strike Scientists have found the fossilized(化石的) leg of a dinosaur that they think was killed on the day of an asteroid(小行星) hit that caused the dinosaurs’ death 66 million years ago. The fossilized leg was found at a site in Tanis, North Dakota, in the US. It belonged to a kind of dinosaur called Thescelosaurus and was so well preserved that scientists could see its skin. Huge face seen in a cliff Walkers on a coastal path in Cornwall, England, have reported seeing a huge human face looking out at sea from the side of a cliff (悬崖). Although it looks like it’s been carefully carved from the cliff, it’s probably the result of a recent rock fall. Louise Coe, whose husband noticed it, took some photos of the massive rock and described it as a “bright sight”. _________________ New research suggests that the ancient city of Machu Picchu, in Peru, has been called the wrong name for more than 100 years. After studying old maps and papers, researchers now think the city was known as Huayna Picchu—the name of a top of the mountain that overlooks it. The position draws hundreds of thousands of visitors every year. |
