He was 11 years old and went fishing every chance he got from the dock at his family’s cabin

A
As many as 20% of all children in the United States suffer from some form of the learning
disorder called dyslexia（读写困难症）.
Experts on dyslexia say that the problem is not a disease． They say that persons with dyslexia
use information in a different way. One of the world's great thinkers and scientists Albert Einstein
was dyslexic． Einstein said that he never thought in words the way that most people do. He said
that he thought in pictures instead. The American inventor Thomas Edison was also dyslexia.
Dyslexia first was recognized in Europe and the United States more than 80 years ago. Many years
passed before doctors discovered that persons with the disorder were not mentally slow or disabled.
The doctors found that the brains of persons with dyslexia are different, In most people, the left
side of the brain — the part that controls language — is larger than the right side. In persons with
dyslexia, the right side of the brain is bigger. Doctors are not sure what causes this difference.
However, a research has shown that dyslexia is more common in males than in females, and it is
found more often in persons who are left-handed.
No one knows the cause of dyslexia, but some scientists believe that it may result from
chemical changes in a baby's body long before it is born. They are trying to find ways to teach
persons with dyslexia． Dyslexia persons think differently and need special kinds of teaching help.
After they have solved their problems with language, they often show themselves to be especially
intelligent or creative.
56．Einstein and Edison are spoken of in the passage to prove that ________.
A．they suffered from dyslexia
B．they succeeded because of dyslexia
C．they are neither slow in thinking nor disabled
D．dyslexia is not a disease
57．Who is the most unlikely to suffer from dyslexia?
A．Left-handed persons . B．Inventors.
C．Females. D．Males.
58．Which of the following is NOT true according to the text?
A．Once persons with dyslexia have their language problems solved, they will be intelligent
and creative.
B．The left brain of the person with dyslexia is larger than the right side of brain .
C．People have no idea of the cause of dyslexia .
D． Experts think the cause of dyslexia may be related to chemical changes in baby's body long
before its birth.
59．The passage mainly talk about ______.
A．some form of the learning disorder B．a serious disease
C．the intelligence of the great people . D．the teaching help to persons with dyslexia.
60．The persons with dyslexia ________.
6
A．are some kinds of sick persons B．are mentally slow
C．think differently from common people D．are all males
B
Faces show emotions. Psychology; computer science, and engineering researchers are joining
forces to teach machines to read expressions. If they succeed, your computer may one day "read"
your mood and cooperate. Machines equipped with emotional skills could also be used in teaching ,
robotics, gaming, security, and for psychological diagnoses(诊断).
"Mind Reader", a system developed by Rosalind Picard at the Massachusetts Institute of
Technology in the US, uses input from a video camera to do real-time analysis of facial expressions.
It reports on whether you seem "interested" or “agreeable” or if you're "confused".
The system can help people detect others' emotions. Picard says this means we could teach a
machine to be as sensitive as a human. In fact, a machine can be even smarter: than people since it
can tell if a person is lying or just "performing" by analyzing one's facial movements. Jeffrey Cohn,
a psychologist at the University of Pittsburgh, uses the Facial Action Coding System to detect
human emotions. "The face is always visible," Cohn says, "People communicate a lot about
feelings and thoughts through facial expression."
Cohn studied a videotape of criminal who professed to be sad about the murder of several
family members and tried to pin the blame on some one else． But Cohn saw no real sadness in the
woman's face. Sadness is a combination of facial action units that are difficult to do voluntarily.
This means, even though your mouth lies, your face doesn't, and the machine will know it all.
61．People can know a person's emotions from his _____.
A．body movement B．facial expressions
C．psychological reactions D．mood and attitude
62．Recent technology development makes ______ by machines possible.
A．mind reading B．body reading
C．face reading D．mood reading
63．According to the passage,______.
A．people can no longer tell lies before the new machine
B．people still can tell lies in front of the new machine
C．people have different emotions before the new machine
D．sadness is often difficult to be seen
64．The underlined word "professed" most probably means_______.
A．to pretend something as true B．to acknowledge
C．to show D．to prove
65．From the passage we can infer that ________.
A．the technology still needs improvement.
B．people can do everything with the new machine .
C．face reading technology is nothing new.
D．face reading technology will be widely used in the future.

Sometimes you'll hear people say that you can't love others until you love yourself, Sometimes
you'll hear people say that you can't expect someone else to love you until you love yourself. Either
way, you've got to love yourself first and this can be tricky. Sure we all know that we're the apple of
our parents' eyes, and that our Grandmas think we're great talents and our Uncle Roberts think that
we will go to the Olympics. But sometimes it's a lot harder to think such nice thoughts about
ourselves. If you find that believing in yourself is a challenge, it is time you build a positive
self-image and learn to love yourself.
Self-image is your own mind's picture of yourself. This image includes the way you look, the
way you act, the way you talk and the way you think. Interestingly, our self-images are often quite
different from the images others hold about us. Unfortunately, most of these images are more
negative than they should be. Thus changing the way you think about yourself is the key to
changing your self-image and your whole world.
The best way to defeat a passive self-image is to step back and decide to stress your successes.
That is, make a list if you need to, but write down all of the great things you do every day. Don't
allow doubts to occur in it.
It very well might be that you are experiencing a negative Self -image because you can't move
past one flaw or weakness that you see about yourself． Well, roll up your sleeves and a change of
it as your primary task． If you think you're silly because you aren't good at math, find a tutor． If
you think you're weak because you can't run a mile, get to the track and practice． If you think
2
you're dull because you don't wear the latest trends, buy a few new clothes. But remember, just
0
because you think it doesn't mean it's true.
0
The best way to get rid of a negative self-image is to realize that your image is far from
9
objective, and to actively convince yourself of your positive qualities. Changing the way you think
0
and working on those you need to improve will go a long way towards promoting a positive
2
self-image. When you can pat(拍) yourself on the back, you'll know you're well on your way. Good
2
luck!
5
66．You need to build a positive self-image when you______.
A．dare to challenge yourself B．feel it hard to change yourself
C．are unconfident about yourself D．have a high opinion of yourself
67．According to the passage, our self-images_______.
A．have positive effects B．are probably untrue
C．are often changeable D．have different functions
68．How should you change your self-image according to the passage?
A．To keep a different image of others. B．To make your life successful .
C．To understand your own world. D．To change the way you think.
69．What is the passage mainly about?
A．How to prepare for your success.
B．How to face challenges in your life.
8
C．How to build a positive self-image.
D．How to develop your good qualities.
70．Who are the intended readers of the passage?
A．Parents. B．Adolescents.
C．Educators. D．People in general.

The UN Environment Programme says that rising temperatures could mean the end for some
migrating animals.
Migrating or mobile animals move through several environments as they travel away from the
cold of winter to warmer areas. Birds may fly from one part of the World to another, perhaps
stopping at feeding grounds on the way. Whales and turtles(海龟) cover vast areas of ocean. The
report says that changes in any one of the places which these animals use can cause serious harm.
"Obviously these animals have developed their travelling patterns over thousands of years. But
climate change is almost certain to be extreme over the next 25 to 50 years and it is extremely
unlikely that these animals can change their habits fast enough, "said the report author Dr. Robert
Hepworth.
Hardest hit by rising temperatures are turtles. Scientists have found that at higher temperatures,
turtles produce far more female eggs than male ones. In parts of Malaysia, turtle birthing sites are
producing only females, the report says. It also provides evidence that some turtles are more likely
to develop cancer as the waters get warmer.
With birds, the main problem is climate-related damage to important areas at either end of the
travels or at resting places along the way. About one-fifth of migrating birds are now in danger
because of climate-related changes including rising sea levels, land loss and more violent storms,
the report concludes.
Other animals picked out as particularly in danger include:
·the North Atlantic Right Whale, whose main food (tiny shrimp) is disturbed by the change in
ocean flows.
·the White-Nose Dolphin, which is out-competed by other kinds of dolphins in warmer waters.
The report is not all bad news. Even with major climatic changes, protecting the environment
can still help mobile animals to recover. "We need governments to start taking action at the national
and international level. The clock is running," said Dr. Hepworth. And some animals are already
adapting, with the report mentioning whales that are changing their feeding behaviour, finding new
feeding grounds and new foods to eat.
71．What is the main topic of the text ?
A．The effect of climate change on migrating animals.
B．How animals are adapting to changes in temperature.
C．The actions required to save migrating animals.
D．The need for government policies to prevent global warming.
72．By saying "The clock is running" in the last paragraph, Dr. Hepworth means that" ______"
9
A．it may be too late to save some animals
B．it is time to start protecting the animals
C．there is not much time to solve the problem
D．it takes time to complete the actions
73．According to the report, how will global warming affect turtles in the future?
A．They will only produce female babies.
B．Their food supply will gradually disappear.
C．Some will suffer from higher rates of cancer.
D．They will be in greater danger because of more violent storms.
74．Which of the following is mentioned as a consequence of rising temperatures?
A．More storms will affect the ability of whales to find their feeding grounds.
B．20 percent of all birds are likely to die out because of land loss.
C．Migrating animals are likely to start adapting to the changes more quickly.
D．Warmer oceans will increase the competition between different kinds of dolphins.
75．What can be inferred about turtles from the text?
A．They are the only animals besides humans that suffer from cancer.
B．They have traditionally lived longer than other ocean-based animals.
C．Those born nearer a hotter area are more likely to be female.
D．Most kinds of turtles are likely to die out within 50 years.

Soccer is played by millions of people all over the world, but there have only been few players
who were truly great. How did these players get that way? Was it through practice, or are great
players “born, not made”? First, these players come from places that have had famous stars in the
past---players that a young boy can look up to and try to imitate. In the history of soccer, only six
countries have ever won the World Cup—three from South America and three from Western
Europe. or a really great player from North America or from Asia. Second, these
players have all had years of practice in the game. Alfredo Di Stefano was the son of a soccer
player, as was Pele. Most players begin playing the game at the age of three or four.
Finally, many great players come from the same kind of neighborhood—a poor, crowded area
where a boy’s dream is not to be a doctor, lawyer, or businessman, but to become a rich, famous
athlete or entertainer. For example, Liverpool which produced the Beatles，has one of the best
English soccer teams in recent years. Pele practiced in the street with a “ball” made of rags. And
George Best learned the tricks that made him famous by bouncing the ball off a wall in the
10
slums(（贫民窟）of Belfast.
All great players have a lot in common, but that doesn’t explain why they are great. Hundreds
of boys played in those Brazilian streets, but only one became Pele. The greatest players are born
with some unique quality that sets them apart from all the others.
