(共3题；共22分)22. （8分）阅读理解 When I was in school, our classes were always divided into smaller groups for reading guidance. These reading groups were named after animals. The high-achieving readers were known as the birds, and the kids with the most difficulty were the mice.I was a bird, and my best friend Bobby was a mouse. I can still remember how uncomfortable it was to hear Bobby read sentences out and he could only read several words in the sentence. This is how we usually think of a reading problemthe inability to decode symbols(解码) and change them into spoken language. Kids with this problem are hard to miss. But there may be many other kids in the classroom who are also poor readers, but in a very different way thats often invisible. These kids read correctly and fluently from the page they might even be birds but they dont understand most words from their mouths.Charles Hulme and his team of York University have been exploring this hidden reading problem, and theyve come to believe that it may be at its heart a spoken language problem. In one study, they found 8 and 9-year-old children who had reading comprehension(理解) problems. Then, some got help in reading and understanding written text, and others got only help with spoken language and still others got a mix of both. They all got 90 minutes of help every week for 20 weeks, after which their skills were tested. They were also tested again almost a year later, to see if any improvements existed.All three groups showed improvements in comprehension soon after the training, but those trained only in spoken language showed great improvements into the following yearmuch more than the others. Whats more, the improvements from the spoken language training and the less improvements from a combined (融合的) way appeared to come from improvements in vocabulary. In other words, the spoken language training seems to have resulted in a generalized improvement in the kids ability to understand language.Reading comprehension is important for success in life, more than ever in history. Reading difficulties create educational difficulties, which in turn lead to social and economic disadvantage, including joblessness. Kids wont be asked to read out loud in the real world, but they will be expected to know what theyve read.（1）_ are called mice in the writers class. A . Students who like animalsB . Students who have good scoresC . Students who are in small groupsD . Students who do worst in reading（2）What does the underlined word invisible probably mean? A . Cannot be tried.B . Cannot be seen.C . Cannot be hidden.D . Cannot be taught.（3）What does the result of Charles Hulmes research tell us? A . Scientists should observe long-term influence.B . A hidden reading disability have been explored.C . Reading difficulties create educational difficulties.D . Speaking training improves comprehensive ability.（4）Which is the best title for the passage? A . Is language training meaningful?B . Is language training easy or not?C . Is reading comprehension a hard problem?D . Is reading comprehension a hidden disability?23. （10分）根据短文内容选择正确答案。Mrs. Smith is Jims mother. She loves her family very much.

The following tips may sound strange, but they can really help you.Exercise when you are tiredAfter a long and tiring day of study, an offer to exercise might not sound like a good idea, but it should.
