Barbara Ann Kipfer hated her feet They were too big and she always seemed to fall over them when someone was 36 usually a smart guy Come to think of it her teeth were too big too The other kids teased 取笑 her because of the way she looked and because she wanted to be a sportswriter some day No matter what she did she was teased for being 37 That s 38 she started writing down things that she liked in a notebook It was like a friend and it 39 me that there are good things even though everything around me is unpleasant she says She copied the list over and over 40 new things every day One day she decided to share her list with some of the girls in her class hoping they would think it was as much fun as she did But 41 they made her feel stupid again They laughed at me she remembers I was ashamed and I stopped doing it Here comes the 42 part When she was in 10th grade Kipfer found her old notebook and decided to 43 where she left off It was like a diary like a photograph of my life she

good notes you need to be able to do following things very quickly 48 you must understand main topics second your hand must work as fast as your ears so that you can write down as 49 information as possible You do not have to learn how to write down 50 you hear But you do need to practice a few simple skills to help you to be good at note taking Also 51 should learn how to write only the most important words in short forms from each sentence without taking notice of the rest In the old days people sent telegrams to each other When they did it they had to pay by the word and it was expensive That is 52 they sent very short telegrams which included only the most important words When you take notes you have 53 similar problem In this case it is not money 54 time For that reason 55 is a good idea to practice listening for only the most important sentences and only the most important words in those sentences Part III Reading Comprehension 30 A Where is the missing dollar Mr White was the owner of a hotel in Springfield One weekend all of the hotels were full because a large meeting was being held in the city On Saturday night three men came into the hotel and asked for rooms Mr White explained that there were no rooms for them The men didn t want to go because they had no place to stay Mr White wanted to help them He remembered that Room 418 a very small room was empty He asked them if they would share a room The three men said that they would Mr White told them that the room would be 30 10 for each man Each man gave him 10 and then they went up to their room Mr White soon began to feel sorry Thirty dollars is too much for the small room He called his assistant over and said Here is 5 Give it to the men in Room 418 They paid too much for the room The assistant took the money While he was on the way to Room 418 he thought How can three man divide 5 I ll give each of them only 1 and I ll keep 2 They will be happy to get something back I ll make a little money and Mr White will never know So he returned 1 to each man Each man had first paid 10 After the assistant gave 1 back to him each one had actually paid only 9 9 3 27 The assistant kept 2 27 2 29 Where is

been missing C they would still have stayed together in a room D they would have shared a larger room 58 We can conclude 推断 that A the money was lost B the assistant kept more than 2 C there was a mistake in calculating D the missing dollar is nowhere to be found 59 Which of the following is not true A Mr White actually took 25 for the small room B The assistant kept no more than 2 C The three man paid 27 including the two dollars that the assistant kept D No one could find out where the missing dollar was 60 The last sentence shows that A Mr White found one dollar missing B the assistant wondered where the missing dollar was C the writer was not good at maths and asked the readers a silly question D the writer put a puzzling question to the readers B You don t need every word to understand the meaning of what you read In fact too much emphasis on separate words both slows your speed and reduces your comprehension First any habit which slows down your silent reading to the speed at which you speak or read aloud is inefficient If you point to each word as you read or more your head of form the words with your lips you read poorly Less obvious habits also hold back reading efficiency One is saying each word silently by moving your tongue or throat another is hearing each word as you read These are habits which should have been outgrown long ago The beginning reader is learning how letters can make words how written words are pronounced and how sentences are put together Your reading purpose is quite different it is to understand meaning It has been supposed that up to 75 of the words in English sentences are not really necessary for expressing the meaning The secret of silent reading is to find out those key words and phrases which carry the thought and to pay less attention to words which exist only for the sake of grammatical completeness An efficient reader can grasp the meaning from a page at least twice as fast as he can read the page aloud he takes in a whole phrase or thought unit at a time If he says or hears words to himself They are selected ones said for emphasis 61 This passage is mainly about A improving eye movements B changing poor reading habits C reading more widely D reading as fast as you can 62 Saying each word to yourself as you read A improves comprehension B gives to much emphasis C reduces reading efficiency D increases reading speed 63 Your reading purpose should be A to understand the grammatical structures B to make fewer eye movements C to understand all the words D to understand meaning 64 While reading efficient readers usually A move their eyes quickly B point at key words C take in whole phrases or thought units D read only important points for speed 65 According to the passage which of the following is right A It s not necessary to understand the meaning of every word that you read B It s supposed that 75 of the words in sentences are necessary for expressing the meaning C The beginning reader is to learn how to make new words D A reader can not grasp the meaning from a page unless he reads the page aloud C You might think that global warming means nothing more than a rise in the world s temperature But rising sea levels caused by it have resulted in the first evacuation of an island nation the citizens of Tuvalu will have to leave their homeland During the 20th century sea level rose 8 12 inches As a result Tuvalu has experienced lowland flooding of salt water that has polluted the country s drinking water Paani Laupepa a Tuvaluan government official reported to the Earth Policy Institute that the nation suffered an unusually high number of fierce storms in the past ten years Many scientists connect higher surface water temperatures resulting from global warming to greater and more damaging storms Laupepa expressed dissatisfaction with the United States for refusing to sign the Kyoto Protocol an international agreement calling for industrialized nations to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions 排放 which are a main cause of global warming By refusing to sign the agreement the US has effectively taken away the freedom of future generations of Tuvaluans to live where their forefathers have lived for thousands of years Laupepa told the BBC Tuvalu has asked Australia and New Zealand to allow the gradual move of its people to both countries Tuvalu is not the only country that is vulnerable 易受影响的 to rising sea levels Maumoon Gayoon president of the Maldives told the United Nations that global warming has made his country of 311 000 an endangered nation
