But all too often as parents and teachers we disallow the same 37 to our children. When I see a child suffering 38 this kind of pressure, I think of Donnie. Donnie was my youngest third grader. His 39 of failure kept him from classroom games that other children enjoyed. He 40 answered questionshe might be wrong. I tried my best to build his self-confidence but 41 changed until midterm, when Mary Anne, a student teacher, was assigned（安排）to our classroom. She was very young and pretty, and she loved all the children. My pupils, Donnie included, 42 her. One morning, we were 43 math problems at the chalkboard. Donnie had copied the problems with painstaking neatness. Pleased with his progress, I 44 the children with Mary Anne and went for art materials. When I returned, Donnie was in 45 . Hed missed the third problem. My student teacher looked at me in despair. Suddenly her face 46 . From the desk we shared, she got a container filled with pencils. “Look, Donnie, ” she said, kneeling beside him and gently 47 the tear-stained face from his arms. “Ive got something to 48 you. ” She removed the pencils, one at a time, and placed them on his desk. “See these 49 , Donnie, ” she continued, “They belong to Mrs. Lindstrom and me.

Reminded第二部分 阅读理解（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。(A)Dogs are known for their sense of smell. They can find missing people and things like bombs and illegal drugs. Now a study suggests that the animal known as mans best friend can even find bladder（膀胱）cancer. Cancer cells are thought to produce chemicals with unusual odors（气味）. Researchers think dogs have the ability to smell these odors, even in very small amounts, in urine（尿）. The sense of smell in dogs is thousands of times better than in humans. The study follows reports of cases where, for example, a dog showed great interest in a growth on the leg of its owner. The man was later found to be skin cancer. Carolyn Willis led a team of researchers at Amersham Hospital in England. They trained different kinds of dogs for the experiment. The study involved urine collected from bladder cancer patients, from people with other diseases and from healthy people. Each dog was tested 8 times. In each test there were 7 samples for the dogs to smell. The dog should signal the one from a bladder cancer patient by lying down next to it. Two cocker dogs were correct 56 percent of the time. But the scientists reported an average success rate of 41 percent. The British Medical Journal published the research. In all, 36 bladder cancer patients and 108 other people took part. During training, all the dogs reportedly even identified（认出）a cancer in a person who had tested healthy before the study. Doctors found a growth on the persons right kidney（肾）. Carolyn Willis says dogs could help scientists identify the combined chemicals produced by bladder cancer. That information could then be used to develop machines to test for the chemicals. The team also plans to use dogs to help identify markers for other kinds of cancer. 56. Whats the general idea of the text? A. Dogs have a good sense of smell. B. Dogs can help cure cancer. C. Dogs can smell cancer. D. Dogs help perform experiments57. According to the text, people who suffer bladder cancer. A. often have urine with unusual smell B. probably smoke cigarettes in their life C. can easily make dogs lie down D. are likely to die within nine years58. The underlined word “involved” in Para. 3 is closest in meaning to“_”. A. showedB. proved C. usedD. preferred59. What can we conclude from the last paragraph? A. Dogs can only smell bladder cancer. B. Dogs have a good knowledge of cancer. C. Scientists might invent some equipment to test cancer. D. Cancer doesnt have any sign in the beginning(B)This is undoubtedly one of the most recognizable buildings in the worldWeighing 7，000 tons，but putting about the same pressure on the ground as an average-size person sitting in a chair，the tower wasnt meant to stand there foreverGdstaveAlexandre Eiffel，the French engineer whose fame rested mainly on his iron bridges, built it for the 1889 Universal ExhibitionPraised by some and denounced by others, the tower created much argument in the 1880sWhat saved it from being torn down was the arrival of radioas the tallest structure in Europe，it made a perfect spot to place a radio antenna(天线)The tower，including its antenna，is 317m highOn a clear day you can see it from 65km away. An open-framework construction，the tower unlocked the almost unlimited possibilities of steel construction，making the way for skyscrapers(摩天大楼)Some people said it couldnt be built，and Eiffel actually wanted to make it go higherFor years it remained the tallest man-made structure on earth，until skyscrapers such as the Empire State Building came into being We could fill an entire page with statistics(数据)(Its plans covered 5，400 sqm of paper，and it contains 2.5 million nails)But forget the numbersJust stand under the tower，and look straight upIts like a rocket shooting into the sky In 2004 it became possible to ice-skate inside the Eiffel Tower，doing figure eights while taking in views of the rooftops of ParisSkating takes place on an observation platform 57m above groundThe rink is a bit larger than an average tennis court，holding 80 skaters at onceRink admission and skate rental are free，once you pay the entry fee below60The text is most possibly_ Aa travel reviewBan advertisement Ca news storyDa study report 61.

(C)Art is considered by many people to be no more than a decorative(装饰) means of giving pleasure. This is not always the case, however, at times, art may be seen to have a purely functional side as well. Such could be said of the sandpaintings of the Navaho Indians of the American Southwest; these have a medicinal as well as an artistic purpose. According to Navaho traditions, one who suffers from either a mental or a physical illness has in some way disturbed or get in touch with the supernaturalperhaps a certain animal, a ghost, or the dead. To break away from this, the ill person or one of his relatives will employ a medical man called a “singer” to perform a curing ceremony which will attract a powerful supernatural being. During the ceremony, which may last from 2 to 9 days, the “singer” will produce a sandpainting on the floor. On the last day of the ceremony, the patient will sit on this sandpainting and the “singer” will rub (按摩) the sick or injured parts of the patients body with sand from a specific figure in the sandpainting. In this way the patient absorbs the power of that particular supernatural being and becomes strong. After the ceremony, the sandpainting is destroyed so its power wont harm anyone. The art of sandpainting is handed down from old “singers”. The materials used are easily found where the Navaho settle: brown, red, yellow, and white sandstone, which is ground(研磨) much as corn is made into flour. The “singer” holds a small amount of this sand in his hand and lets it flow between his fingers onto a clean, flat surface on the floor, with a steady hand and great patience. He is thus able to create designs of stylized people, snakes and other creatures that have power in the Navaho belief system. The traditional Navaho doesnt allow copying sandpaintings, since he believes the supernatural powers that taught him the craft (技艺) have forbidden this; however, such reproductions can in fact be purchased today in tourist shops in Arizona and New Mexico. These are done by either Navaho Indians or by other people who wish to preserve this craft. 63. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? A. The Navaho IndianB. The Ancient “Singer” C. Functions of ArtD. The Navaho Sandpaintings64. How did the “singer” treat the patient according to the passage? A. By passing his supernatural power on to the patient. B. By applying a magic substance to the patients body. C. By rubbing the patients sick parts with sand from a sandpainting figure. D. By destroying the sandpainting figure. 65. The traditional Navaho does not allow copying of sandpaintings because_. A. anything copied has no effect B. the craft only belongs to the supernatural C. its against Navaho belief system D. the copying may do harm to other Navahos66. That the reproductions of sandpaintings are now commercially available shows_ . A. people have realized the artistic value of sandpaintings B. patients have benefited from the powerful effect of sandpaintings C. more people have come to believe in supernatural power D. modern technology has helped the production of sandpaintings (D)New archaeological discoveries suggest that trade between Europe and Asia along the Silk Road probably began in some form many centuries earlier than once thought. The findings, coupled with a widening range of scientific and historical research, could add a fascinating new page to the epic of the Silk Road. The latest and most surprising discovery is pieces of silk found in the hair of an Egyptian mummy from about 1000 BC, long before regular traffic on the Silk Road and at least one thousand years before silk was previously thought to be used in Egypt. Other research may extend human activity along this route back even further, perhaps a million years to the migration of human ancestors into eastern Asia.
