第三部分：阅读理解（共10小题；每小题2分，满分20分）

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A

I was drawn to the teaching profession because I enjoy working with children. I view teaching as a constant challenge that is seldom, if ever, boring. The realization that a teacher can introduce children to new worlds of information and open up new possibilities daily was motivation in itself for me to select teaching as a profession many years ago.

What I try to do every day in my class is be a good listener, to guide instruction rather than lecture, and be willing to use varied methodologies to foster learning. I also strongly believe in establishing and maintaining good communication with parents. This can foster a positive learning atmosphere in the classroom and can only enhance instruction.

Teaching to me is not a nine to five occupation. It is a privilege and a tremendous responsibility. I believe in placing my students as a priority during the school year and have a very support family who accepts the fact that my teaching is important. I would be a fool to say that I know everything there is about teaching. I am a life-long learner and want my students to become the same as well.

I do set high standards in my classroom and will not accept minimal effort from anyone including myself. If I am to expect a one hundred percent effort from my students, then it is only fair to say that my students can expect the same from their teacher. I really try to make teaching an interesting and personally rewarding experience for my students while at the same time trying to have fun with what we are doing. B

Students who are engaged in their work are energized by four goals - success, curiosity, originality, and satisfying relationships. How do we cultivate these drives in the classroom?

Ten years ago, we began a research project by asking both teachers and students two simple questions: What kind of work do you find totally engaging? and What kind of work do you hate to do? Almost immediately, we noticed distinct patterns in their responses.

Engaging work, respondents said, was work that stimulated their curiosity, permitted them to express their creativity, and fostered positive relationships with others. It was also work at which they were good. As for activities they hated, both teachers and students cited work that was repetitive, that required little or no

thought, and that was forced on them by others.

How, then, would we define engagement? Perhaps the best definition comes from the work of Phil Schlecty (1994), who says students who are engaged exhibit three characteristics: (1) they are attracted to their work, (2) they persist in their work despite challenges and obstacles, and (3) they take visible delight in accomplishing their work.

Most teachers have seen these signs of engagement during a project, presentation, or lively class discussion. They have caught glimpses of the inspired inner world of a child, and hoped to sustain this wonder, enthusiasm, and perseverance every day. At the same time, they may have felt stymied by traditions of reward and punishment. Our challenge is to transcend these very real difficulties and provide a practical model for understanding what our students want and need. C

More than 500,000 children in the United States are looking for a family. More children are looking for foster or adoptive families than there are people in the city of Boston. There is one woman though who is living proof it's easy to step up and step into a child's life.

Dozens of foster children have called her Mama Sheri. Today, she is mom to one very special little girl. Lexi has cerebral palsy （脑瘫）and was put in foster care the day she was born. Even though Mama Sheri has got cancer disease she's determined to giving Lexi all the love she needs.

Many children in foster care have special needs. In fact, 30 percent have suffered serious abuse（虐待，辱骂） and have emotional and behavioral problems but only 25 percent of these children will be adopted by their foster family.

Sabrina hopes to find her own adoptive family. This is an important time for her. She knows that if children aren't adopted by age 8, it's unlikely they will be adopted at all. Sabrina's requests are simple. \"I wish they would care for me and not keep me aside and make me go to my room so they don't have to deal with me. \"

A simple wish . . . That would make this little girl's dream of a forever family come true.

The goal of foster care is to reunite the children with their biological parents. If in two years that doesn't work, the child is then put up for adoption. Sixty percent of the children who need foster parents are either African American or Hispanic（美籍西班牙人）.

附加综合阅读题（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读下面短文，并根据文章后的题目要求进行简答。

Could one teacher make a difference? That's a question I have been asking myself since I made the decision to switch careers at the age of 46. I stopped being a university professor, a scholar of Chinese poetry and textual criticism, and a teacher of comparative literature who read seven languages, and started being a K-12 teacher. Over the course of my first year I taught students with remarkably different abilities. In the same class, I had students who read at the fifth-grade level and students whose abilities were comparable to college students. I taught students who were eager to learn, students with a \"who-cares\" attitude, and students who were just plain angry about being in school. Some kids benefited from strong support systems. Others were struggling to function in unstable family situations. Students entered my classroom with different skills and different needs as human beings － and my days (and often my nights) were consumed with trying to help them.

Teaching in a public high school is much more complex than those outside can imagine. Every day, you are running five different classes, designing and adapting learning activities that you hope will meet the needs of your students while simultaneously fulfilling departmental, building, district, and state standards. Most days, you work from 7 a. m. to 9 p. m. , often with just a break for dinner. Despite diminishing sleep, you need to maintain an energy level that matches that of teenagers,

while remembering to remain the adult in the classroom. And you must constantly remind yourself of the power you have to affect your kids, for better or worse. You can't afford to be careless, indifferent, hurtful, fake, or oblivious (as you might on an off day with adults) because kids never get over it.

书面表达（One possible version）

My New English Teacher

Mrs. Li has left a very good first impression on me. She is a beautiful young lady，enthusiastic and full of energy. Now I know that she is a really wonderful teacher. She explains everything clearly and is very patient with us. She always encourages us and avoids making us feel embarrassed even when we make mistakes, so every student is very active in her class.

So far, Mrs. Li has been teaching us for only two weeks, but she has already become the most popular teacher with all of the students in our class! I am sure that we are going to learn a lot with Mrs. Li teaching us.

重点解析：

21. C。第一个空是泛指，应用冠词a；art“美术”，在此处表示学科，其前一般不用冠词。

24. B。team是集体名词，在该句中被看作一个整体，谓语动词需用单数形式。由句意及so far可知该句应使用现在完成时态。

25. D。consider意为“考虑”时，后接动名词作宾语；意为“认为”时，后接名词，形容词或不定式。 27. C。根据后半句中 “made an apology”可判断正确选项为C，admit意思是 “承认”。

30. D。第一个空需填入的词与lovely并列，应是形容词；第二个空考查固定搭配be patient with sb“对某人耐心”。故选D。

34. C。由第一句“rather difficult”与第二句“got good marks”可判断前后两句逻辑

关系相反，因此surprisingly为最佳答案。

36. C。由短文首句可知Rossetti是诗人和艺术家，再由第二段中“… the pictures were without much value …”可判断正确选项为C。

39. B。根据第二段中“But Rossetti was a kind man …”以及“… he could not lie to the man”说明Rossetti是一个善良，严谨的艺术家，所以carefully为最佳答案。 44. B。由上文可判断此处“He was sorry”与“he could not lie to the man”之间应为转折关系，故选but。

46. B。由后文可知来访者非常抱歉占用了Rossetti的时间，选项中只有take up表示“占用（时间）”，因此选B。

51. C。根据本段Rossetti对这些画的评价以及他对绘画者的褒奖可知talent为最佳答案。

53. A。stick to sth坚持做某事，是固定搭配，因此选A。

55. B。通读最后一段，可知来访者年轻时受挫并且很快放弃了绘画，因此只有give up符合题意。 56. B。由“I view teaching as a challenge that is almost never boring”可知B为正确选项。

59. C。通读全文，作者主要表述了自己对教学的看法和观点，故选C。

61. C。由短文第四段中描述的三个特点可排除选项A，B，D。文章中并没有涉及“学生成为老师朋友”这一特点，因此答案为C。

. C。由短文第二段中“she is mom to a very special little girl”可排除A和B；文章中没有说明Sabrina的具体年龄，可排除D。所以选C。

65. D。由文中第三段可知30%的孩子遭受虐待，有感情和行为问题，与选项A中的1/3数据不符，可排除A；由文中第四段可知8岁以上的孩子不太可能被收养，可排除B；选项C与短文最后一段叙述不符；因此选 D。
