In fact, sometimes the reading is so difficult that it almost seems like a foreign language. In a way, it isthe language of science. You should not expect to be able to read a difficult science passage the same way you read an interesting story; you should not expect to read it easily and all at once. Instead, you may have to read it several times through, catching on the meaning of difficult words, going back over difficult sentences, and finally putting the whole thing together. Do not be discourages if the whole passage dont make sense to you at first. You need to pick it apart patiently until you can understand it.These are the steps to follow when you are reading something difficult:1. Start to read normally until you run into a sentence that doesnt make sense to you.2. When a sentence doesnt make sense, go back and read it again more slowly.3. Look for any word you dont know in the sentence. Try to understand their meanings using word parts and context clues(上下文线索). If necessary, look them up in the dictionary.4. Look at the next few sentences to see if they explain more about the sentence you are working on. Do not read very much farther ahead until you understand what is being said.5. Finally, read the sentence again. Try to put it into simpler words.6. Read through the passage once. Try to understand all the hard parts well. Then read the whole passage once more at a usual speed. This helps you to put all ides together.The stops sound a lot harder than they are. It is really just the normal way good readers understand anything that is difficult to read. After you have done the best you can this way, you should always feel free to ask for help from your teacher, if you have one.（1）The underlined phrase “run into” means _.A . work outB . come acrossC . look intoD . pass by（2）From the passage, we can know _.A . we should look up new words before readingB . it is sometimes difficult to read a science passageC . the six steps are helpful in learning spoken EnglishD . interesting stories help readers to improve their English（3）The massage is mainly about _.A . steps of studying scienceB . difficulties in reading scienceC . ways of reading science passagesD . researches on science and English5. （10分）阅读理解My name is Yang Ling.

Now it was Jerrys turn. And Jerry would ride Wild Lady！I watched Jerry in the chute. Jerry dropped down on the horses back. He was ready to go. Outside! He called.The gate of the chute opened. And then nothing. Wild Lady didnt move. What was the matter?Suddenly Wild Lady jumped out like a tiger. She jumped-with all four feet off the ground. She was quick, still I could see Jerrys spurs(马刺). He had them in the right place. Again Wild Lady jumped, kicking and turning. Then she began a quick turn. Now I knew why all the riders were afraid of her. Around and around she went. Again and again she dug her front legs into the ground and kicked up behind. Jerrys neck moved back each time the horse jumped. Now Wild Lady was turning fast-so fast that Jerry looked like part of her. Once I saw Jerry bounce(单起)up high, off to one side, Thats it! I thought. But no! She was still riding. I was trying to count off the seconds with my fingers. But I was lost in the watching. I dug my nails(指甲)into my hand until it hurt. Wild Lady jumped higher and higher. Again the horse threw Jerry into the air. The people around me stood up. I couldnt see what was happening. But I heard, Come on! That was Jerry landing on the horses back. Everybody was shouting. And they were still shouting when the bell rang. It was all over. Jerry had stayed on that horse for eight long seconds. Now I had seen Jerry ride. I dont know how he felt while he was on that horse. But I know how I felt watchi
