I strongly believe that we can have an important effect on anyone we meet. The right words at just the right time could totally change someone’s life.Years ago, that’s what happened to me. My life was completely changed because a simple three-word phrase was delivered at the right time in just the right way. When I was 3 years old, my parents discovered I was totally deaf. After asking many educational specialists, doctors, psychologists, and parents of other deaf children, they decided to put me in a “mainstream” school. All of my classmates and teachers would have normal hearing.From the time I started going there in the third grade, I was the only deaf child at Blue Creek Elementary School in the small, quiet town of Latham, New York. From almost the first day there, the other kids made fun of me and called me names mainly because of my hearing aid and the way I talked.I worried throughout elementary school because, in addition to the problems of “fitting in” with the other students, I also struggled with most of my schoolwork. Although I seemed outgoing, my self-esteem was quite low. I saw myself as an ugly kid wearing a weird-looking box around his neck who wasn’t even sma rt enough to keep up with the other kids.Mrs Jordan, my fifth-grade teacher, changed all of that with a simple three-word phrase. Mrs Jordan was a large woman with a voice that bounced (反弹) off the walls of her tiny classroom.One morning, she asked the class a question. I read her lips and immediately raised my hand. For once I knew the answer. But, when she called on me, I was afraid. I took a deep breath and nervously answered Mrs Jordan’s question.I will never forget what happened next.Mrs Jordan pointed directly at me. With sparkling eyes and a wide smile she cried: “THAT’S RIGHT, STEPHEN!”For the first time in my young life, I was an instant star. My confidence soared like never before.I decided right then and there that I would make a place for myself in this world. No matter how many obstacles I might meet in life, I knew I could overcome them. A simple three-word phrase delivered with incredible enthusiasm (热情) had totally changed my young life. “THAT’S RIGHT, STEPHEN!”1. A “mainstream” school is probably where ______.A. students with disabilities go to studyB. students can receive extra careC. most students do not have disabilitiesD. there are many wonderful teachers2. What was the author’s school life like?A. He got along very well with his classmates.B. He could deal with his homework easily.C. He kept up with others by working hard.D.

With his story, the author mainly wants to tell us that ______.A. teachers should help their students build their confidenceB. the right words at the right time could make a differenceC. being disabled doesn’t mean being less important than othersD. you need to prove yourself when you are given the chance参考答案1—4、CDBB（选自2016中考模拟）阅读理解。

阅读下列短文，根据短文内容选择最佳答案。

Playing computer games is getting serious.Washington teacher Tammie Schrader is so crazy about computer games in education that she thinks they can be used to teach programming skills which will help students in college – starting in middle school.Canadian teacher Justin Holladay wrote a few simple games to help his students practice math skills, and when they caught on, he started his own company to create more of them.And the University of W ashington’s Zoran Popovic got more than 4,000 Washington students to master linear equations (线性方程) this spring by playing a computer game for just a few hours.The growing availability of inexpensive tablet computers and a new generation of young teachers who grew up playing on computers have got interested in games for serious purposes.“Six or seven years ago, selling games to schools was brutal,” said David Martz of Muzzy Lane Software, a Boston, US company that produces games for publishers such as McGraw-Hill. Now, he said, schools are interested in the promise of games –perhaps because gaming is so much more mainstream .Software and education companies have tried for many years to combine youngsters’ passion for computer games with educational progress, without much success.Popovic thinks the first efforts to combine games with education fell flat because they were created by commercial companies. These companies were more interested in selling products than seeing students master a skill.Teachers say there are some pretty good games on the market now.Holladay, the math teacher from Alberta, Canada, began moving paper-based math games to the iPad, building games that allowed students to compete with each other and giving him instant feedback on their progress.The games improved the lessons he was teaching, and his students had fun playing, he said. “They were a lot more engaged.”1. What can we conclude from the first four paragraphs?A. Many US teachers devote themselves to creating computer games for students.B. An increasing number of teachers think computer games can help students learn.C. Teachers hold different views toward the application of computer games in schools.D. Many US schools are encouraging students to play computer games to relax.2. Which of the following have helped promote computer games in schools according to the article?a. The availability of low-priced tablet computers.b. The favor of young teachers.c. The advertisements of commercial companies.d. Parents’ support.e. Better games being produced.A. a, b, cB. a, c, dC. a, b, eD. b, d, e3. The underlined phrase “fell flat” in Paragraph 8 probably means ______.A. turned out successfulB. caught attentionC. caused confusionD. ended in failure4. What is Holladay’s attitude toward the idea of using computer games in class?A. It allows students to learn in a fun way.B. It is not as helpful as people thought it would be.C. It reduces the interaction between teachers and students.D. It sounds good but it makes it inconvenient for teachers to get feedback from students.参考答案1—4、BCDA巩固部分（选自2016中考模拟）阅读理解。
