I was in the classrooms, but I wasnt there to learn to write, read or even speak. When it was my turn to read, I wanted to hide. I was 13 years old, but I already hated being who I was.I had an English teacher, Mr. Creech, who knew I couldnt read. In one of my first lessons the teacher said that anyone who had a reading age below six had to stand up. I felt so embarrassed. But at the same time, it made me realize that I needed to change the situation. I was determined it wouldnt happen again. Later that day, Mr. Creech encouraged me and promised he would try his best to help me learn to read. From then on, I never gave up practicing reading.Now I was 41 years old. One day, I planned to fly back to Texas to visit my friends and family. On my way from the airport, I saw Mr. Creech buying himself a drink. I rushed over and reached into my pocket to pay for him. “Do I know you? he asked. “Yes, sir, you do know me, I answered excitedly. “My name is Anthony Hamilton. You taught me English. The look on his face told me that he remembered the boy hed once encouraged.“Im so glad I had a chance to see you, I said. “And Mr. Creech, I have great news to share. I told him I had learned to read. But that wasnt all. I had become a published author and an active speaker. “The next time you get another Anthony Hamilton in your classroom, please encourage him to read as well, I added.The experts say what once worried me has a name: dyslexia (诵读困难症). But I can tell you it was a lack of desire for education.24Why did the author want to hide?ABecause he felt sorry for himself.BBecause he hated being laughed at.CBecause he couldnt read at all.DBecause he didnt have a ticket.25Which of the following could best describe Mr. Creech?AConsiderate and dutiful.BDemanding and enthusiastic.CEmotional and dedicated.DFriendly and ambitious.26Why couldnt the author read before meeting Mr.Creech?ABecause his reading age was not long enough.BBecause his parents didnt teach him how to read.CBecause he was afraid of reading before the class.DBecause he didnt have inner driving force to learn to read.27What can we infer from the passage?AMr. Creech taught two students called Anthony Hamilton.BThe author had become a published author and an active speaker.CDyslexia was the underlying reason that made the author unable to read.DThe author was grateful to Mr. Creech.C On June 10, at 8 pm, more than a hundred people were gathered in a tent in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. They were there to play video games. But they wouldnt be playing on any ordinary gaming system. Instead, they were prepared to play games that would be displayed on a glass skyscraper called the Cira Center.“There was really a great energy in the tent that night, Ainsley Soulchin, 13, said. She participated in Skyscraper Video Games for Kids. It is a programme that teaches middle school students to code (编程) video games.In the programme, Ainsley coded a game. She calls the game Dot Man. In Dot Man, a player has to pass through a maze (迷宫) without getting caught by a dot. On June 10, the public got to play Dot Man and other student-made video games on the outside of the Cira Centre. Ainsley was proud of her accomplishment. “When you see your game on the building, she said, “youre like Wow, I made this.Frank Lee founded Skyscraper Video Games for Kids. Hes a professor of digital media at Drexel University, in Philadelphia. He wanted to involve others in the joy of playing video games. So he found a way to make that happen.“Years ago, I was driving past the Cira Centre, Lee said. “I thought, Wouldnt it be cool to make a game out of that building? He noticed there were LED lights fixed between the skyscrapers floors. Lee knew if he could access the buildings computer system, he could control the LED lights. This would allow him to display video games on the skyscraper. People could play these games using a joystick (游戏杆). The joystick would be connected to a computer outside the building. And the computer would send wireless commands to the skyscrapers internal system.Now Lee shares his passion for game design with kids. With funding from Intel, he trains educators to create video games. The educators then teach their students those same skills.28What was special about the video games?AThey would be played in a tent.BThey would be played by over 100 people.CThey would be played by children.DThey would be displayed on a skyscraper.29Which of the following best describes the participants in the tent?AEnthusiastic.BExhausted.CRelaxed.DStressed.30What inspired Frank Lee to found Skyscraper Video Games for Kids?AThe skyscrapers floors.BThe ads on the skyscraper.CThe LED lights on the skyscraper.DThe skyscrapers computer system.31Where is the text most likely from?AA guidebook.BA website.CA fiction.DA diary.D What inspires kids to be creative and pursue academic excellence? Some teachers use rewards in recognition of students effort or achievement, giving them prizes, medals, certificates, or money.Psychologists take opposite views of how external rewards, from warm praise to cold cash, affect motivation and creativity. Behaviorists, who study the relation between actions and their consequences, argue that rewards can improve performance at work and school. Cognitive researchers, who study various aspects of mental life, believe that rewards often destroy creativity by encouraging dependence on approval and gifts from others.The latter view has gained many supporters, especially among educators. But the careful use of small monetary(金钱的) rewards sparks creativity in primary school children, suggesting that properly given stimuli(刺激) indeed encourage creativity, according to a study in the June Journal of Personality and Social Psychology."If kids know they're working for a reward and can focus on a relatively challenging task, they show the most creativity," says Robert Eisenberger of the University of Delaware in Newark. "But it's easy to kill creativity by giving rewards for poor performance or creating too much desire for rewards."A teacher who continually draws attention to rewards or who hands out high grades for ordinary achievement ends up with students lacking in creativity and motivation, Eisenberger says. As an example of the latter point, he particularly mentions growing efforts to tighten grading standards and adopt failing grades at major universities.In earlier grades, the use of rewarding system, in which students handle challenging problems and receive performance-based points toward valued rewards, shows promise in raising effort and creativity, Eisenberger claims.32Psychologists are divided in their attitudes toward _.Athe choice between spiritual encouragement and monetary rewardsBthe amount of monetary rewards for students' creativityCthe relationship between actions and their consequencesDthe effects of external rewards on students' performance33Which of the following does NOT belong to examples of “external rewards?ATom received a certificate for winning a speech competition.BMary was praised by the teacher for making progress in English.CJacky made great efforts to enter a major university.DJohn was offered a free summer camp due to his hard work.34Which of the following can best raise students' creativity according to Robert Eisenberger?AAssigning them tasks they have not dealt with before.BAssigning them tasks which require creativity.CGiving them rewards they really deserve.DGiving them rewards they hope for.35It can be inferred from the passage that major universities are trying to tighten their grading standards because they think _.Arewarding poor performance may kill the creativity of studentsBpunishing students is more effective than rewarding themCfailing unmotivated students helps improve their academic standardsDdiscouraging students expectation of easy rewards is important 第二节 (共5小题；每题2分，总分值10分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最正确选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Does a Dog Help a Teen with Low Self-esteem?A dog is known as mans best friend for good reason. Loyal and affectionate, a dog companion can enrich its owners life in many ways, _36_ Many teenagers suffer from periods of low self-esteem (自尊) as they try to navigate the wavy waters of adolescence and deal with all of its associated highs and lows.A teenager who lacks self-esteem may feel isolated from his peers and unable to tell his parents about personal issues. The company of a dog can be a huge comfort and ease feelings of loneliness and awkwardness. A dog offers genuine unconditional love. _37_All dogs need exercise，so taking his clog for a walk is the perfect opportunity for a teenager to get outdoors and benefit from fresh air and physical activity. Exercise allows people to take control of their bodies，which is often the first step toward regaining control of other aspects of their life，says mental health specialist Dr. Alan Cohen. 38 Exercise releases chemicals called endorphins (内排肽into the brain，which create positive responses in the body, including improved self-esteem. Dogs can help teenagers be more sociable and make new friends, suggests HELPGUIDE. _39_ A dog is a great ice-breaker, avoiding awkward social situations and putting the teenager at ease with people he meets. The more confident the teen becomes when out and about with his clog, the more his self-esteem will improve._40_ If a teenager is suffering from depression or developing dangerous habits such as alcohol and drug abuse, more extreme action may be required.
