They say that persons with dyslexia use information in a different way. One of the worlds 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 dyslexic. 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 brainthe part that controls languageis 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, 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 babys body long before it is born. They are trying to find ways to teach persons with dyslexia Dyslexic 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.16 One out of five American children suffers from dyslexia.A Right B Wrong C Not mentioned 17 Many great thinkers and scientists in the world are dyslexic.A Right B WrongC Not mentioned 18 The first cases of dyslexia in Europe were discovered less than a century ago.A Right B Wrong C Not mentioned 19 The left side of the brain in a dyslexic person is bigger than the right side.A Right B Wrong C Not mentioned 20 Generally speaking, dyslexia is more common in left-handed males than in right-handed females.A Right B Wrong C Not mentioned 21 It is believed that dyslexia is related to the bad habits of a babys mother.A Right B Wrong C Not mentioned 22 Dyslexic people often turn out to be intelligent or creative once they have learned to handle language properly.A Right B Wrong C Not mentioned 第三部分：概括大意与完成句子 (第2330题，每题1分，共8分) 阅读下面这篇短文，短文后有2项测试任务：(1)第2326题要求从所给的6个选项中为第14段每段选择1个正确的小标题；(2)第2730题要求从所给的6个选项中选择4个正确选项，分别完成每个句子。请将答案涂在答题卡相应的位置上。How to Learn Language Successfully1 Some people seem to have a knack for learning languages. They can pick up new vocabulary, master rules or grammar, and learn to write in the new language more quickly than others. They do not seem to be any more intelligent than others, so what makes language learning so much easier for them? Perhaps if we take a close look at these successful language learners, we may discover a few of the techniques which make language learning easier for them.2 First of all, successful language learners are independent learners. They do not depend on the book or the teacher; they discover their own way to learn the language .Instead of waiting for the teacher to explain, they try to find the patterns and the rules for themselves. They are good guessers who look for clues and form their own conclusions. When they guess wrong, they guess again. They try to learn from mistakes.3 Successful language learning is active learning. Therefore, successful learners do not wait for a chance to use the language; they look for such a chance. They find people who speak the language and they ask these people to correct them when they make a mistake. They will try anything to communicate. They are not afraid to repeat what they hear or to say strange things ;they are willing to make mistakes and try again. When communication is difficult , they can accept information that is inexact or incomplete .It is more important for them to learn to think in the language than to know the meaning of every world.4 Finally, successful language learners are learners with a purpose. They want to learn the language because they are interested in the language and the people who speak it. It is necessary for them to learn the language in order to communicate with these people and to learn from them .They find it easy to practice using the language regularly because they want to learn with it.A Ways to Learn a Language SuccessfullyB Learning a Language PurposefullyC Learning a Language ActivelyD Learning a Language IndependentlyE Learning from MistakesF Learning to Think in the Target Language5 What kind of language learner are you? If you are a successful language learner, you have probably been learning independently, actively, and purposefully. On the other hand, if your language learning has been less than successful, you might as well try some of the techniques outlined above.23 Paragraph 1 _24 Paragraph 2 _25 Paragraph 3 _26 Paragraph 4 _27 Successful language learners derive conclusions _. 28 Independent language learners rely on themselves _. 29 Active language learners seize every opportunity _. 30 The author wrote this text _. A to discover sentence patterns and grammatical rulesB to expand vocabularyC to use the target languageD to encourage unsuccessful language learners to learn independently, actively and purposefully E from cluesF to say strange things第四部分：阅读理解 (第3145题，每题3分，共45分) 下面有3篇短文，每篇短文后有5道题，每题后面有4个选项。请仔细阅读短文并根据短文回答其后面的问题，从4个选项中选择1个最佳答案涂在答题卡相应的位置上。第一篇 To Have and Have Not It had been boring hanging about the hotel all afternoon. The road crews were playing a game with dollar notes. Folding them into small planes to see whose would fly the furthest. Having nothing better to do, I joined in and won five, and then took the opportunity to escape with my profit. Despite the evil-looking clouds, I had to get out for a while. I headed for a shop on the other side of the street. Unlike the others, it didnt have a sign shouting its name and business, and instead of the usual impersonal modem lighting, there was an appealing glow inside. Strangely nothing was displayed in the window. Not put off by this, I went inside. It took my breath away. I didnt know where to look, where to start. On one wall there hung three hand-stitched American quilts that were in such wonderful condition they might have been newly-made. I came across tin toys and antique furniture, and on the wall in front of me, a 1957 Stratocaster guitar, also in excellent condition. A card pushed between the strings said $ 50. I ran my hand along a long shelf of records, reading their titles. And there was more . . . “Can I help you?” She startled me. I hadnt even seen the woman behind the counter come in. The way she looked at me, so directly and with such power. It was a look of such intensity that for a moment 1 felt as if I were wrapped in some kind of magnetic or electrical field. I found it hard to take and almost turned away. But though it was uncomfortable I was fascinated by the experience of her looking straight into me, and by the feeling that I was neither a stranger, nor strange, to her. Besides amusement her expression showed sympathy. It was impossible to tell her age; she reminded me faintly of my grandmother because, although her eyes were friendly. I could see that she was not a woman to fall out with. I spoke at last. “I was just looking really”, I said, though secretly wondering how much of the stuff I could cram into the bus. The woman turned away and went at once towards a back room, indicating that I should follow her. But it in no way lived up to the first room. The light made me feel peculiar, too. It came from an oil lamp that was hung from the centre of the ceiling and created huge shadows over everything. There were no rare electric guitars, no old necklaces, no hand-painted boxes with delicate flowers. It was also obvious that it must have taken years, decades, to collect so much rubbish, so many old documents arid papers. I noticed some old books, whose gold lettering had faded, making their titles impossible to read. “They look interesting”, I said, with some hesitation. “To be able to understand that kind of writing you must first have had a similar experience”, she said clearly. She noted the confused look on my face, but didnt add anything. She reached up for a small book which she handed to me. “This is the best book I can give you at the moment”, she laughed. “If you use it.” I opened the book to find it full, or rather empty, with blank white pages, but paid her the few dollars she asked for it, becoming embarrassed when I realised the notes were still folded into little paper planes. I put the hook in my pocket, thankedher and left. 31.Why did the writer want to leave the hotel?ATo enjoy the good weather.BTo have a change of scene.

The writer disliked the back room because_. Athere was hardly anything in it Bshe had ordered him to go there Che saw nothing he really liked Dit was too dark to took around 第二篇 Immigration and Problems Hundreds of thousands of people supporting immigration rights in the US filled streets all over America in early 2006. Many held signs and American flags and asked to be treated as citizensnot criminals. Many of these supported legislation from Senator John McCain that would open a path to citizenship to immigrants who were already in the country illegally. Proposed legislation from other politicians called for stricter measuresincluding rounding up undocumented immigrants and sending them back to their home countries. Canadian officials say that immigration applications continue to rise. Some want to keep the doors open. They need the labor. About 400,000 immigrants were allowed into the country in 2005, according to the Canadian Government statistics. However, all this growth means that cities need to adapt. Newcomers dont always make a smooth transition into jobs for which they are skilled. So industries are using mentoring programs to help new immigrants find proper jobs. With the large numbers of undocumented African immigrants arriving in the Canary Islands and showing no sign of abating, the Spanish Government has decided to get tough. There will be no more mass amnesties for illegal, and anyone coming to Spain without permission will be sent back, the government has announced. About 23,000 migrants landed on the islands in 2006, and riots have erupted in some crowded reception centers. This has promoted local authorities to appeal to the United Nations for help. Frances new immigration and integration law gives the government new powers to encourage high skilled migration. It takes effect in 2007. The new law authorizes the government to identify particular professions where France has a talent shortage. Then the government will help these identified employers find immigrant workers with needed skills or qualifications. The selected foreign employees will be granted skills and talents visas, valid for three years. But some concern that itll cause brain drain in developing countries.36 Many immigrants swarmed into streets in the US in early 2006, demanding that they shouldbe treated as_.A animals B citizensC civilians D criminals 37Some Canadian officials want to keep the door open because_.A Canada is in desperate need of talented peopleB Canada can feed a much larger populationC Canada is suffering from labor shortageD Canada is a multicultural country 38What has the Spanish Government decided to do? A Help immigrants find proper jobs.B Let immigrants freely enter the country.C Integrate immigrants into the Spanish culture.D Take tough measures against illegal immigration. 39After Frances new immigration and integration law takes effect, it will_.A lure overseas students back homeB undermine the unity of the countryC drain developing countries of talentD induce resentment among the French workers 40The phrasal verb rounding up in paragraph 1 could be best replaced by_.A capturing B encircling C separating Dfrightening 第三篇 Differences of Policemen Real policemen hardly recognize any resemblance between their lives and what they see on TV. The first difference is that a policemans real life revolves round criminal law. He has to know exactly what actions are crimes and what evidence can be used to prove them in court. He has to know nearly as much law as a professional lawyer, and what is more, he has to apply it on his feet, in the dark and rain, running down a street after someone he wants to talk to. Little of his time is spent in chatting, he will spend most of his working life typing millions of words on thousands of forms about hundreds of sad, unimportant people who are guilty of stupid, petty crimes. Most television crime drama is about finding the criminal: as soon as hes arrested, the story is over. In real life, finding criminals is seldom much of a problem. Except in very serious cases like murders and terrorist attacks little effort is spent on searching. Having made an arrest, a detective really starts to work. He has to prove his case in court and to do that he often has to gather a lot of difference evidence. At third big difference between the drama detective and the real one is the unpleasant pressures: first, as members of a police force they always have to behave absolutely in accordance with the law; secondly, as expensive public servants they have to get results. They can hardly ever do both. Most of the time some of them have to break the rules in small ways. If the detective has to deceive the world, the world often deceives him. Hardly anyone he meets tells him the truth. And th
