专题02 English around the world 第一节 阅读理解A“Her grades are fine; Im not worried about that, but she just doesnt seem to love learning any more，” Alices mum said. Shes absolutely right. Id noticed the same thing about her daughter over the previous two or three years when Id been Alices middle school English, Latin, and writing teacher, and I have an answer, right there on the tip of my tongue, to what has gone wrong. Yet Im torn between my responsibility to help Alice and the knowledge that what I have to say is a truth Im not sure this mother is ready to hear. The truth for this parent and so many others is this: Her child has sacrificed her natural curiosity and love of learning at the altar (圣坛) of achievement, and its our fault. Alices parents, her teachers, society at large we are all supposed to be blamed in this crime against learning. From her first day of school, we pointed her toward that altar and trained her to measure her progress by means of points, scores, and awards.We taught Alice that her potential is tied to her intellect (智力), and that her intellect is more important than her character. We taught her to e home proudly bearing grade As, championship prizes, and college acceptance, and not on purpose, we taught her that we dont really care how she obtains them. We taught her to protect her academic and extracurricular perfection at all costs and that its better to quit when things get challenging rather than risk losing that perfect record. Above all else, we taught her to fear failure. That fear is what has destroyed her love of learning.【文章大意】 本文通过Alice的例子说明了父母、老师和社会有时会扼杀孩子的好奇心和对学习的热爱。【难句分析】 We taught Alice that her potential is tied to her intellect(智力)，and that her intellect is more important than her character.(第三段第四句)分析：这是一个复合句，含有两个that引导的宾语从句。We是主语，taught是谓语，两个that在从句中均不充当成分。译文：我们教给Alice的是她的潜力和她的智力是联系在一起的，并且她的智力比她的性格更重要。1Both the mother and the author have noticed that _.AAlice hates to tell them the truthBAlices test scores are not so goodCAlice chooses several subjects to learnDAlice doesnt enjoy studying any more答案与解析：D 考查细节理解。根据第一段中的“but she just doesnt seem to love learning any more”和第二段中的“Id noticed the same thing about her daughter”可知，Alice的妈妈和作者都注意到了Alice不再喜欢学习。A项和C项文中没有提到；根据第一段中的“Her grades are fine”可知，B项错误。2What does the underlined word “torn” mean in the passage?APained to choose. BGuilty to quit.CTired to manage. DCertain to decide.答案与解析：A考查词义猜测。根据画线词后的“between my responsibility.and the knowledge that what I have to say is a truth”可知，作者在两者之间很难选择。3What does the teacher think of the girl?AHer academic perfection results from her character. BShe is a gifted girl with spirits of challenging.CShe is perfect in her character development.DHer academic performance is great. 4What leads to the girls change?AA few failure experiences.BFear of failing to get good grades.CHer mothers overprotection.DHer not being accepted by colleges.答案与解析：B考查细节理解。根据第三段中的“We taught her to protect. That fear is what has destroyed her love of learning.”可知，害怕失败毁掉了Alice对学习的热爱。阅读理解BThe popular TV program Readers has prompted more people in China to practice reading aloud in booths (小间) set up in big cities across the country.As the latest TV show to help peoples love for literature recover, the CCTV program Readers invites people from all walks of life to read aloud their favorite poems, essays and books, or even personal letters they wrote to their loved ones.

Some waited more than nine hours for a tryout in the booth, according to library management. “There is an old photo in the late 1970s capturing people lining up outside the Shanghai Library before it opens.
