the following passage.No one in my family could believe Allegra had any disability,much less one as severe as hers.To them a disability was physical,something you could see.They knew her as a happy,normal child.Thats how it is with a learning disability-you dont see obviousphysical symptoms.But as she grew out of preschool,she would pretend to read-I knew she was pretending because the book was upside down.Shewithdrew into her own world where she could fantasize about being a ballet dancer,a Broadway actress or a figure skater.In the realworld,ballet classes and music lessons led only to confusion,frustration and,ultimately,disappointment.As for school,there was no way she could be included in a mainstream classroom.I went through every special school in NewYork,only to be told over and over:She doesnt belong here.The last blow came a few months after the diagnosis,when I was at apay phone on 72nd Street,waiting for an answer from the very last school on my list.Finally a cold voice came on-I can still hearit-and said:Im sorry,but we feel this isnt the place for her.I hung up and stared at the phone in tears.I had lived my life as the daughter of Henry Ford II,and for the first time in my life I faced a problem that neither moneynorposition could solve.I nearly gave up,but I knew I couldnt.Without me,my daughter stood no chance of making it.21.According to the first paragraph,Allegras problem was_.A.psychologicalB.obviousC.physicalD.invisible22.Allegra was disabled in that_.A.she was unable to learn like a normal childB.she was always reading with her book upside downC.she isolated herself from other children in her classD.she was living in her dreams in conflict with the real world23.The expression a mainstream classroom(para.3)refers,to_.A.the last blowC.special schoolsB.the last schoolD.normal education-.可修编.-24.It can be inferred from the last paragraph that_.A.the author would ask Henry Ford II for helpB.the author would continue to help her daughterC.the author would leave New York for the sake of her daughterD.the author had to use money or position to deal with the problem25.The phrase making it(para.4)probably means_.A.being a figure skaterC.being successfulPassage TwoQuestions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.Contrary to what many people believe,highly intelligent children are not necessarily bound to have an academic success.In fact,so-called gifted students may fail to do well because they are unusually smart.Ensuring that a gifted child reaches his or her potentialrequires an understanding of what can go wrong and how to satisfy the unusual learning requirements of extremely bright youngpeople.One mon problem gifted kids face is that they,and those around them,place too much importance on being smart.Such anemphasis can breed a belief that bright people do not have to work hard to do well.Although smart kids may not need to work hard inthe lower grades when the work is easy,they may struggle and perform poorly when the work gets harder because they do not makethe effort to learn.In some cases,they may not know how to study,having never done it before.In others,they simply cannot acceptthe fact that some tasks require effort.If the scholastic achievement of highly intelligent children remains below average for an extended period,many teachers will fail torecognize their potential.As a result,such students may not get the encouragement they need,and may further be depressed to learn.They may fall far behind in their schoolwork and even develop behavior problems.Boys may turn aggressive or bee class clowns(小丑).Girls often develop performance anxiety and other symptoms such as stomachaches.One way to avoid such difficulties is to recognize that IQ is just one of the elements for success.Children do well or struggle inschool for a host of reasons apart from IQ,according to psychologist Franz Monks of the University of Nijmegen in the Netherlands.These include motivation and persistence,social petence,and the support of family,educators and friends.Emphasizing theimportance of persistence and hard work,for example,will help a child avoid the laziness trap.Gifted children also need intellectualchallenges-to teach them how to work hard.26.According to the first paragraph,the author believes that_.A.intelligent students may fail to do well in their schoolworkB.gifted students are too smart to do well in their schoolworkC.intelligent students are bound to succeed in their schoolworkD.gifted students understand what can go wrong and how to learn27.When too much emphasis is placed on students intelligence,people are likely to take it for granted that_.A.smart students may not do well in the lower gradesB.intelligent students know how to avoid laziness trap-.可修编.B.being a ballet dancerD.getting proper treatment.-C.clever students require more intelligence than hard workD.bright students may succeed even if they do not work hard28.It is observed in the third paragraph that_.A.highly gifted students show a great desire to learnB.highly gifted students tend to fall ill with no reasonC.highly intelligent students also need encouragementD.highly intelligent students score higher than average students29.According to the author,a students IQ is_.A.one of the factors of successB.the only factor for his successC.directly related to persistenceD.closely associated with petence30.This passage aims to tell people about_.A.the academic performance of gifted studentsB.the proper attitudes toward gifted studentsC.the difficulties in recognizing gifted studentsD.the motivation students need for their studiesPassage ThreeQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.Mars Global Surveyor is the oldest of five NASA robotic devices,which is designed to find out signs that Mars once had water;and it had been taking detailed pictures of the red planet for a decade.Unfortunately,it stopped working on November 2 after itdeveloped a motor problem.After two days of silence,ground control teams received a signal that the device had put itself into an emergency standby mode.There was no information about what had gone wrong.Since then,the mission team at NASAs laboratory in California has tried tocontact the device.This week,NASA engineers are preparing for what may be their last chance to recover the spacecraft.NASA plans to use a newly arrived device to take a picture of the Surveyor to see how the failed craft is oriented to the sun forpower and to Earth for munications.It is reported that the picture will be taken on Friday when the satellites are about 93 miles apart.The new high-powered camera should be able to image details of the Surveyor as small as about 10 centimeters.There is a goodchance of recovering it.Flight controllers also plan to try to get the Surveyor to contact one or both of NASAs roving(漫游)geology stations,Spirit andOpportunity,which are located on opposite sides o.Marsequator(赤道).The rovers would not be able to transmit the spacecraft5science data,but engineers at least would get an idea of its general position.The linkup also could show if the Surveyor still has power.If the device has been unable to charge its batteries due to a positioning problem or failed ponent,it could run out of power with nohope of recovering.But if it has power,the device is quite capable of autonomous control even if it doesnt hear from Earth.TheSurveyor has far surpassed its design lifetime,but scientists still have more targets for the probes camera and science instruments.31.The main task of Mars Global Surveyor is_.-.可修编.-A.to take pictures of the red planetB.to work out the problems of its motorC.to find out if there was water on MarsD.to find the causes of the failure in the device32.The newly arrived device_.A.is equipped with a powerful cameraB.checks the signs for water on the red planetC.carries new ponents for the failed deviceD.examines the surveyors munication system33.The last chance for NASAs engineers to recover the Surveyor might be_.A.to charge its batteriesB.to adjust its positionC.to test its munication systemD.to use the new device to image it34.The decisive factor for the recovery of the Surveyor is_.A.its lifeB.its orbitC.its powerD.its position35.The passage is most probably taken from_.A.a book reviewB.a news reportC.an advertisement D.a science fiction taleIV.Word Spelling(10 points,1 point for two words)IV.Word Spelling(10 points,1 point for two
