Ⅴ.阅读理解
A few years ago I had an “aha！” moment regarding handwriting.
I had in my hand a sheet of paper with handwritten instructions on it for some sort of editorial task.It occurred at first that I did not recognize the handwriting，and then I realized whose it must be.I finally became aware of the fact that I had been working with this colleague for at least a year，maybe two，and yet I did not recognize her handwriting at that point.
It was a very important event in the computerization of life—a sign that the informal，friendly communication of people working together in an office had changed from notes in pen to instant messages and emails.There was a time when our workdays were filled with little letters，and we reco gnized one another’s handwriting the way we knew voices or faces.
As a child visiting my father’s office，I was pleased to recognize，in little notes on the desks of his staff，the same handwriting I would see at home in the notes he would leave on the fridge—except that those notes were signed “dad” instead of “RFW”．
All this has been on my mind because of the talk about The Rise and Fall of Handwriting，a book by Florey.She shows in her book a deep concern about the fall of handwriting and the failure of schools to teach children to write well，but many others argue that people in a digital age can’t be expected to learn to hold a pen.
I don’t buy it.
I don’t want to see anyone cut off from the expressive，personal associations that a pen still promotes better than a digital keyboard does.For many a biographer，part of really getting to know their subjects is learning to read their handwriting.
What some people advocate is teaching one of the many attractive handwritings based on the handwriting of 16thcentury Italy.That may sound impossibly grand—as if they want kids to learn to draw by copying classical paintings.However，they have worked in many school systems.
1．Why was the author surprised at not recognizing his colleague’s handwriting?
A．He had worked with his colleague long enough.
B．His colleague’s handwriting was so beautiful.
C．His colleague’s handwriting was so terrible.
D．He still had a lot of work to do.
2．People working together in an office used to ________.
A．talk more about handwriting B．take more notes on workdays
C．know better one another’s handwriting D．communicate better with one another
3．The author’s father wrote notes in pen ________.
A．to both his family and his staff B．to his family in small letters C．to his family on the fridge D．to his staff on the desk 4．According to the author，handwritten notes ________.
A．are harder to teach in schools B．attract more attention
C．are used only between friends D．carry more message
Ⅳ.阅读填空
The traditional American school year begins in late August or early September.It ends in May or June，followed by summer vacation.__1__Because long ago，young people had to help their families harvest the summer crops.At least this is what people today may think._2__A recent report from an education policy center at Indiana University explored the historical roots of the traditional school calendar.
In the early days of the United States，children were not required to attend school.School calendars depended on local needs.__3__They worked on family farms during the other months.City schools were often open much longer，some for eleven months of the year.
After the Civil War，more and more people saw the need for a system of required education._4__Many city schools wanted a shorter year and a longer summer break.The schools were often crowded.There was no modern air conditioning.Hot days would make it difficult to learn.Many rural educators，however，pushed for a longer school year.They thought it would keep children safe from industrial dangers when there were few childlabor laws.
So the traditional school calendar was a compromise(折中)．The average school year used to be one hundred and seventy days.Times have not changed much.__5__But some experts think the traditional school calendar needs to change because the needs of the nation have changed.This thinking has led some schools to keep students in class longer.
A．Why such a long break?
B．Today the common average is one hundred and eighty days.
C．Americans think highly of their traditional school calendar.
D．Most schools had similar school calendars.
E．But the reason has more to it.
F．Students in rural areas went to school for no more than six months of the year.
G．But they had different ideas for the calendar.
