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, enjoya ble 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 learning to read by reading.1.The problem with the reading course as mentioned in the first paragraph is that________.A.it is one of the most difficult school coursesB.students spend endless hours in readingC.reading tasks are assigned with little guidanceD.too much time is spent in teaching about reading2.The teaching of reading will be successful if________.A.teachers can improve conditions at school for the studentsB.teachers can enable students to develop their own way of reading C.teachers can devise the most efficient system for readingD.teachers can make their teaching activities observable3.The underlined word “scrutiny” most probably means“________”.A.inquiry B.observationC.control D.suspicion4.According to the passage, learning to read will no longer be a difficult task when________.A.children become highly motivatedB.teacher and learner roles are interchangeableC.teaching helps children in the search for knowledgeD.reading enriches children’s experience5.The main idea of the passage is that________.A.teachers should do as little as possible in helping students learn to readB.teachers should encourage students to read as wid ely as possible C.reading ability is something acquired rather than taughtD.reading is more complicated than generally believedB(2015·南通高三调研)Open Range Band featured at Depot’s RoundhouseRoundupThe upcoming Roundhouse Roundup at the Livingston Depot will feature the music of local artists Ric Steinke & Linda Hausler and their western swing group Open Range Band.“Music that captures the spirit of the West”...That’s how the music of Open Range has been described.Ric Steinke & Linda Hausler perform music from the old western standards, to swing tunes of the 40’s, to western music being written today,including their own original compositions.A delicious chuckwagon style dinner,western dancing and more will all be part of the Livingston Depot’s second annual westernthemed fundraiser scheduled for Friday, August 23, at the Livingston Depot, 200 West Park Street.The outdoor event is from 5:30 p.m.until 8:30 p.m., with ticket prices at $ 40 per person in advance and$45 per person at the door.Individual tickets and a limited number of reserved tables for groups of eight are available by calling the Depot office at(406)2222300.Organizers have planned Roundhouse Roundup at the Depot to highlight the Depot’s more than 100yearold her itage.All the proceeds from the event will benefit the Depot, which serves as a cultural center for exhibits and educational programs for the benefit of Park County residents and visitors from around the world.Depot Museum hours are Monday through Saturday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.and Sunday from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. Admission is free.Group tours are also welcome, and more information is available through the Depot office at(406)2222300 or its website, .PCEC Annual RendezvousSweetwater Fly Shop and Sweetwater Travel invite you to join them for the evening at Park County Environmental Council’s Annua l Rendezvous, Saturday, August 31, 5:30 p.m.-9:00 p.m. This will be an outdoor event, behind the Sweetwater Fly Shop, by the Yellowstone River, at 5, 082 Hwy: 89 South in Livingston.Join them and enjoy music by Montana Rose, a cocktail buffet and several different kinds of BBQ, along wi th some special side dishes from Casey Williams.

Over the past 100 yearsEarth’s temperature rose by about 1°F. Scientists predictthat Earth will continue to warm by about 2—6°Fover thenext 100 years. That may not sound like much, but think aboutthis: During the last Ice Age, Earth was only 9°F coolerthan it is today, and large sheets of ice called glaciers(冰河) covered large parts of North America! The warming of Earth’s climate is called global warming.Scientists are not sure of what causes climate change. Earth could be warming on its own, however, most scientists believe that human activity is speeding up the climate change. Earth warms itself through a process called the greenhouse(温室) effect. When sunlight enters Earth’s atmosphere(大气), it passes through a layer of greenhouse gases. Greenhouse gases occur naturally, but humans also create them by burning fossil fuels. When sunlight hits Earth’s surface it bounces_back toward the sky. The greenhouse gases trap some of the sunlight on Earth and allow the rest to go back into space, making Earth’s temperature warm. The process works much in the same way as a greenhouse, hence its name. If there are too many greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, too much sunlight may be trapped, making Earth warmer.Scientists c annot predict exactly what will happen as Earth’s temperature rises. They believe a rapid climate change could upset the balance of the ecosystem(生态系统), causing some land and marine(海产的) life to become extinct. As temperatures rise, the world’s glaciers wi ll melt(融化)into the ocean, causing sea levels to rise between several inches to three feet during the next 100 years. Higher sea levels could cause flooding of coastal lands. Warmer ocean water could cause increased storm activity on the coasts while areas away from the coasts may experience droughts. These are just a few of the possible effects of global warming.6.The best title for this text would be________.A.Climate B.Climate ChangeC.Global Warming D.Greenhouse effect7.Humans create greenhouse gases every time EXCEPT we________.A.play video games B.use a hair dryerC.ride in a car D.use solar energy lights8.Which of the following is NOT the effect of climate change?A.Rising temperature.B.The extinction of some wildlife.C.Sea level rising.D.Flooding of coastal lands.9.The writer’s purpose in writing the text is to________.A.show us the temperature risingB.tell us what greenhouse effects areC.call us to protect the earthD.teach us a fact10.Which of the following words has the similar meaning as the underlined phrase in the second paragraph?A.Throw. B.Rebound.C.Go. D.Fetch.Ⅴ.阅读填空As the number of people using the Internet grows,it is inevitable that the number of Internet scams(欺诈) will grow.Unfortunately there are many forms of scams but in this article we will look at two of the most prominent.419 fraud or “Nigerian Scams”Also known as advanced fee fraud (AFF),419 fraud is named after the section of the Nigerian penal code(刑法典) that deals with fraud.Although originally originating in Nigeria,these scams can originate from anywhere.If you fall for one of these at best you will lose thousands of dollars,at worst you will lose your life.These usually start with an email from a bank official or a government minister informing you that they have access to millions of dollars but need your help to get the money out of the country.The result is that when the deal is threatened,you will be asked for money to secure the release of the funds.Do not under any circumstances reply to these letters.People have been murdered while following up with these scams.Phishing(网络钓鱼)In phishing scams,scammers send out emails to millions of Internet addresses intending to be from a financial institution,and requiring you to log in and confirm your details.The email looks authentic(真实的) and contains a link that you need to click.If y ou happen to have an account at the bank featured in the scam then it’s a very natural thing to click the link and log in to “your” account except it’s not your account or even your bank.It will be a website set up by the scammers to extract your information,name,address,credit card details,password and PIN number etc..Once they have these details they will have access to your funds and your identity.Avoid these scams by never clicking on a link in an email like this.Banks do not send out emails requesting you to log in and confirm your details.I hope the above haven’t scared you away from the Internet.If you are sensible and wary about offers that seem too good to be true then you should be OK.Just applythe same common sense you use in everyday life.If a stranger walked up to you in the street and said “Hi!I am from your bank.What’s your credit card number?”,would(2015·益阳箴言中学模拟)Pollution is a growing problem that is facing the international community, but even the actions that we take can make a difference. Littering is creating environmental problems all over the world and is often created by careless actions. If we guard our actions against careless littering we can ensure a better world for everyone.Littering is a severe problem in many countries around the world. For example, the African city of Kampala is suffering from the consequences of littering. For many years the city’s poor didn’t have a proper way to dispose of trash, so garbage filled the streets. Over the years much of the plastic garbage would slowly be pushed into the ground. This plastic litter doesn’t allow rain water to seep(渗透) into the ground and ha s caused flooding. In many of Kampala’s poor neighborhoods whenever it rains people’s homes become flooded with water. This water is often dirty and has allowed diseases to spread. This flooding has become so bad that the Ugandan government has banned plastic bags in the entire country to stop the littering.Trash often finds its way into the water. Today the world’s oceans are believed to have millions of tons of trash floating around in them. This creates a problem for wildlife because they may accidentally eat the trash and die from it. Scientists have found on very remote islands baby birds that have died because their stomachs were full of trash. Fish often get tangled in plastic and will also die. Our actions in our own countries affect the most remote parts of the planet.We can all be part of the solution to stop this pollution, just by preventing careless littering.If you need to throw something away, find a trash can. If you see a friend littering tell them not to. By making this small change we can create a better world for all.1.What is the cause of littering?(No more than 3 words)________________________________________________________________________ 2.How does plastic litter cause flooding?(No more than 11 words)________________________________________________________________________ 3.If you need to throw something away, what should you do?(No more than 5 words) ________________________________________________________________________ 4.What’s the topic of this passage?(No more than 5 words)________________________________________________________________________模块8课后达标检测24Ⅰ.单项填空1.解析:选A。

入舵市安恙阳光实验学校Unit 1 The written word 课时练1 2篇阅读+1篇完形[学生用书P391(单独成册)]Ⅰ阅读理解A(2020·芜湖高三月考)I realized something this morning. I have beenwriting now for 34 years. It all started when I was just 18 years old. As a boy I had read literally hundreds of books. I had a thirst for knowledge that seemingly could never fade. Then suddenly I found I had something I wanted to share. I tried to ignore it, but as any writer tells you once the ideas awaken inside of you they w on’t leav e you alone until you write them down. I didn’t have a computer, word processor, or even a typewriter. Still, I grabbed a pen and lined notebook paper and wrote everything that was burning inside of me.When I was done I didn’t know how to share it. There was no Internet back then, no smart phones, and no social media. I sought out the editor of my local county newspaper and asked him to print what I had written. He was a good man full of both wisdom and kindness. He not only printed my first story but agreed to publish anything else I was willing to write.I continued to write new articles each week and shared them first with other local papers and later online as well. Years later at the urging of my readers I even selfpublished two collections of my stor ies in book form.Through my writing I slowly became more than I was. In my writings I encountered my highest self. In my writings I discovered the goodness and light that lie in us all. In my writings I found great love and joy and encouraged others to choose love and joy as well. I also found that we all are writers whether we put pen to paper or not. With every choice we make, with every thought we hold, and with everything we do, we are writing our own life story.Lance Wubbels once wrote:“I hope you re alize your life is truly your life. It belongs to you. It is your story to write with love. Day by day, line by line, write it well.”【解题导语】本文是一篇记叙文,作者讲述了自己从热爱阅读到成为一名作家的经历。

Fidel Castro was born at his father’s farm on August 13, 1926. His father, Angel Castro, was a migrant to Cuba from Galicia, Northwest Spain. He had become financially successful by growing sugarcane at Las Manacas farm in Biran, Oriente Province.Aged six, Castro was sent to live with his teacher in Santiago be Cuba, before being baptized(洗礼)into the Roman Catholic Church at the age of eight. Being baptized enabled Castro to attend the la Salle boarding school in Santiago, where he regularly misbehaved, so he was sent to the privately funded Dolores School in Santiago. In 1945 he transferred to a more famous school, De Belen in Havana. Although Castro took an interest in history, geography and debating at Belen, he did not excel academically, instead devoting much of his time to playing sport.In 1945, Castro began studying law at the University of Havana, where he became involved in student activism, and the violent gangsterism culture within the university. Passionate about anti-imperialism and opposing U.S. interference in the Caribbean, he unsuccessfully campaigned for the presidency of the Federation of University Students on a platform of “honesty, decency and justice”. Castro became critical of the corruption and violenc e of President Ramon Grau’s government, delivering a public speech on the subject in November 1946 that received coverage on the front page of several newspapers.In 1947, Castro joined the Party of the Cuban People, founded by Eduardo Chibas. Chibas advocated social justice, honest government, and political freedom, while his party exposed corruption and demanded reform.

Arjun Makhijani is president of the Institute for Energy and Environmental Research in the United States. He says the disaster in Japan is historic.This week, the chairman of America’s nuclear agency said there is little chance that harmful radiation from Japan could reach the United States. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Chairman Gregory Jaczko also said America has a strong program in place to deal with earthquake threats. No new nuclear power centers have been built in the United States since 1979.That was when America’s worst nuclear accident happened at the Three Mile Island center in Pennsylvania. The accident began to turn public opinion against nuclearenergy.To support more clean energy production, the Obama government has been seeking billions of dollars in government loan guarantees to build new centers. Presently, about twenty percent of electricity in the United States comes from nuclear energy. But critics say nuclear power is too costly and dangerous to be worth further expansion.German prime minister Angela Merkel said Germany would close all seven nuclear power centers for a moment while energy policy is reconsidered. The European Union is planning to test all centers in its twenty-seven member nations.Developing nations are less willing to slow nuclear expansion. China said it would continue with plans to build about twenty-five new nuclear plants. And India, under a cooperation agreement with the United States, plans to spend billions on new centers in the coming years.Japan has made nuclear energy a national priority since the 1970s. Unlike many major economies, Japan imports eighty percent of its energy. The Nuclear Energy Institute said twenty-nine percent of Japan’s electricity came from nuclear sources in 2020.The government planned to increase that to forty percent by 2020.Nuclear plants supply fourteen percent of global electricity. Nuclear energy is a clean resource, producing no carbon gases. But radioactive waste is a serious unresolved(未解决的) issue. So_is_the_presence_of_nuclear_power_centers_in_earthquake_areas_like_the _one_near_Bushehr,_Iran.28.Which of the following countries is the least likely to expand its use of nuclear energy?A.China. B.India.C.Iran. D.Germany.29.The government of Japan intended to increase its nuclear energy in 2020 by ________ compared with 2020.A.29% B.40%C.69% D.11%30.Which of the following statements about the use of nuclear power in the U.S. is TRUE?A.Most of the electricity comes from nuclear energy in the U.S.B.The Obama government is against building nuclear power plants.C.A small number of nuclear power plants have been built since 1979.D.A serious nuclear accident happened in America at the end of the 1970s.31.What’s the main idea of this passage?A.The nuclear crisis in Japan has spread to other parts of the world.B.The situation of the world’s nuclear po wer development after the crisis in Japan.C.Japan’s nuclear disaster will slow the expansion of nuclear plants all over the world.D.Japan’s nuclear disaster won’t affect the nuclear energy production in other countries.32.From the last sentence of the p assage, we can see the writer’s attitude towards building a nuclear power plant near Bushehr, Iran is________.A.supportive B.optimisticC.negative D.uncertain课时作业(二十四)Ⅰ.1.C考查固定搭配would rather…than…宁愿做……而不愿做……,故此题答案为C。

How do they communicate with each other without using language? Well,different species use different types of communication.Sounds are one of the most common types of communication in animals and the majority of the species use them as the medium to convey messages.Bats usually follow sound waves to communicate.All the birds communicate through their chirping(吱喳) and use ultrasound waves.Mammals,generally,make use of sounds to give calls to other members of their community.Whales are the perfect users of sound waves.They have a whale song,which they repeat after regular intervals.In addition to sounds,facial expressions are also used by animals to communicate.For example,when dogs are angry,they show their teeth barking and raise their ears.On the other hand,when they’re frightened,they pull their ears behind with the mouth open.For another example,when the parent bird brings food for the offspring,the “begging expression” can be observed on its face.Next,gestures and body movements are also common in animals.Honey bees are the most enthusiastic creatures on the earth because they dance to communicate.Some bees dance in the hive so that other bees get signals about the location of the honey comb.In addition,a deer waves its tail to warn others of some danger coming closer.Gorillas stick their tongue out to express anger.Moreover,many animals communicate with each other through smell.They release pheromones(信息素) to convey messages to other animals.Wolves,deer and insects generally,use this type of communication.Even amoebas(变形虫) need to communicate and does it by chemical discharge.The animals use this type of communication to attract others for reproduction.Therefore,communication is so important that it’s useful in the process of reproduction.Besides the above,animals like chimpanzees express feeling by touching each others’ hands.A newcomer puts its hand in the mouth of the head monkey to confirm its entry in their community.The head monkey gives the visitor the assurance of safety and goodwill.They even give hugs and kisses to express love.And cats snuggle(偎依) to show affection.36.What is the best title for the passage?A.How do animals communicate without any language?B.How does animals’ communication differ from human communication?C.Why can animals communicate with each other without any language?D.What are the effects of communication without language on animals’ life?37.When a dog shows its teeth and raises its ear while barking,it must be ________.A.conveying its fearB.warning its owner of some dangerC.expressing its angerD.begging its owner for something38.It is known from the passage that ____________.A.a gorilla sometimes sticks its tongue out when it’s angryB.all animals use their smell for reproductionC.a deer waves its tails once it senses dangerD.a hungry bird baby always shows a begging expression39.According to the passage,____________.A.bats are good at using sound wave than birdsB.both monkeys and cats like to show their love by touchingC.almost all animals can communicate by using facial expressionD.bees are the animals that are the best at dancing40.Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage?(①=Paragraph 1;②=Paragraph 2;③=Paragraph 3;④=Paragraph 4;⑤=Paragraph 5;⑥=课时作业(二十四)Ⅰ.1.C考查固定搭配would rather…than…宁愿做……而不愿做……,故此题答案为C。
