Part II Reading Comprehension (40 points)
Directions: There are 4 passages in this part. Each of the passages is followed by 5 questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET with a single line through the center. Passage One
Many people consider switching from homeschooling to traditional schooling as a student grows older, for reasons including more challenging content, social and athletic opportunities, and growth and independence.
For the special needs child, the reverse often occurs. It is at home that the student can be appropriately challenged and can become an independent learner. This is for a number of reasons: First, challenges often become more troublesome, and often students are deprived of academic opportunities because they cannot take advantage of the way that learning is being offered. Second, school often simply becomes more competitive. Third, gaps between reading and writing skills and intellectual ability become much more of a problem as students are given reading and writing assignments that may be appropriate for most students - and if not, most students can survive them -- but are overwhelming to the student with dyslexia.
Many schools that provide excellent special services to students in elementary school simply don’t provide them at upper levels. Other schools don’t provide the services students need at all -- but a bright student can compensate for a while. Many the student who has not been taught accurate reading skills has successfully memorized enough words and used his native intelligence and pictures and context to succeed in elementary school; then when a \"reading problem\" is discovered in middle school, parents are told \"it’s too late to remediate.\" It’s not.
16. According to the passage, which of the following is not mentioned as a benefit of traditional schooling?
A. Independence
B. Social opportunities C. Safety
D. Athletic opportunities
17. The special needs child most probably refers to _________ . A. a child with high intelligence B. a genius
C. a child with ordinary ability
D. a child who needs special help 18. ‘Dyslexia’ means _________ . A. reading problem B. sleeping problem C. physical problem
D. problem in social interaction
19. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to this passage? A. Not all the schools provide the services students need.
B. It is too late to remediate a reading problem when it is discovered in middle school. C. A bright student can survive for a while without special help. D. It is easier to succeed in elementary school.
20. According to paragraph two, _________ might be better for the special needs child. A. homeschooling
B. traditional schooling C. more challenging tasks D. more competitive tasks Passage Two Every chance she gets, five-year-old Gina visits Grandma Lilly. Gina likes to talk with her grandma and watch her cook. Everything Grandma Lilly makes is delicious, but Gina especially loves the little cookies shaped like teddy bears, dolls, flowers, and hearts.
And Grandma Lilly, who enjoys this precious time with her granddaughter, uses the cookies to teach Gina certain things she will need to know as she grows up by helping her to develop the five senses and her imagination. Perhaps the most important lesson Grandma Lilly teaches Gina is that most of the foods and the cookies she prepares taste so delicious because they are made with love. One day Gina’s mother tells her she cannot visit Grandma Lilly because she has become very sick and is in the hospital. Gina begs and cries, but her mother explains that Grandma Lilly is so ill that she is in a very deep sleep and needs her rest. Gina tries to think of something that will help her grandmother and suddenly remembers the cookies. She will bake a batch of them all by herself, and because she will make them with all the love she has in her heart, Grandma Lilly will feel better!
Touched by her daughter’s love and determination, Gina’s mother finally agrees to take her to the hospital with her cookies to visit her grandmother. There, Grandma Lilly teaches her little granddaughter another lesson about love that she will be able to pass on to her own children and grandchildren in the years to come.
21. Which of the following is not mentioned as a reason why Gina visits Grandma Lilly whenever she can?
A. She likes to talk with Grandma . B. She likes to watch Grandma cook.
C. She loves the delicious cookies Grandma cooks D. She loves the flowers in Grandma’s garden.

A. the relationship with grandma and granddaughter B. cooking delicious food C. love

China’s State Council pledged Monday to further upgrade the funding system for the country’s medical institutions in small townships and cities.
To ensure low income-earners can afford essential medications, the government will provide additional funding to these hospitals, while improving the funding system.
Since August 2009, more than half of China’s medical clinics in rural townships and small urban communities have been offering essential medications at low prices thanks to the ongoing healthcare reform, according to a State Council executive meeting presided over by Premier Wen Jiabao. However, some medical institutions were short of funds because of the lowered drug prices. According to the meeting, under the new system the operational expenditure of government-run hospitals and clinics in townships or urban communities would be covered by government subsidies and medical service charges.
Also, government authorities were required to allocate enough funds so that medical institutions could purchase basic medical facilities and equipment, while also arranging subsidies for medical staff.
\"Regular channels and ways of funding and subsidizing grassroots medical organizations should be established to ensure their smooth operation and development and the successful implementation of essential medical systems,\" a statement issued after the meeting said.
The statement called for government authorities to offer more subsidies for rural medical practitioners and village-based clinics. Local authorities were also encouraged to support village clinics in terms of construction, equipment purchasing and personnel training
Appropriate subsidies would also be provided to non-government run grassroots clinics for medical services that are open to the public. The medical insurance scheme would cover those qualified clinics
26. ‘Pledge’ means __________ .
A. refuse B. promise C. decline D. declare
27. The government will provide additional funding to the hospitals to make essential medications available to ___________ . A. people in big cities B. foreigners
C. people with low income D. all the citizens
28. The State Council executive meeting was _________by Premier Wen Jiabao. A. chaired B. prepared C. offered D. funded 29. Accoding to the passage, _________ is the major means to guanantee the success of the healthcare reform.
A. purchasing basic medical facilities B. building more hospitals C. personnel training D. government subsidy
30. In this passage, the author is ________ to the ongoing healthcare reform. A. subjective B. objective C. sarcastic D. cynical Passage Four With the possible exception of equal rights, perhaps the most controversial issue across the United States today is the death penalty. Many argue that it is an effective way to stop murder, while others maintain that there is no convincing evidence that death penalty reduces the number of murders.
The main argument by those opposed to the death penalty, basically, is that it is a cruel and inhuamn punishment that is the mark of a brutal society, and finally it is questionable whether it is effective to reduce crime anyway.
The value of the death penalty as a way to reduce crime may be open to debate. But the overwhelming majority of citizens believe that the death penalty protects them. Their belief is reinforced by evidence which shows that death penalty reduces murder. For example, from 1954 to 1963, when the death penalty was consistently imposed in California, the murder rate remained between three and four murders for each 100,000 population. Since 1964 the death lenalty has been imposed only once, and the murder rate has risen to 10.4 murders for each 100,000 population. This sharp increase in the state’s murder rate, which began when executions stopped, is no coincidence. It is convincing evidence that the death penalty does stop many murderers. If the bill reestablishing the death penalty is vetoed, innocent people will be murdered—some whose lives may have been saved if the
death penalty were in effect. This is literally a life or death matter. The lives of thousands of innocent people must be protected. 31. ‘Penalty’ means _________ . A. reward B. punishment C. management D. control
32. Which of the following is NOT an argument by those opposed to death penalty? A. Death penalty is a cruel punishment. B. Death penalty is an inhuman punishment
C. Death penalty is an effective way to reduce crime. D. Death penalty is a mark of a brutal society.
33. The majority of citizens believe that the death penalty is ______ . A. inhuman to all the people B. cruel to murderers
C. a brutal way of punishment D. effective to stop murder
34. The murder rates from 1954 to 1963 and since 1964 in California are used to show that death penalty _________ .
A. is effective to reduce murder B. is inffective to reduce murder C. does not influence murder rate D. fails to protect innocent people
35. The author of this passage is ________ to the reestablishing of death penalty. A. negative B. neutral C. positive D. suspicious

Part V Writing (15 points) 参考作文
For some people, computer games have brought many negative effects on young people, for example, they are so deeply involved in the games that their school work is neglected.
On the other hand, there is some different voice. Many young people believe that computer games have many advantages. The fanciful and colorful world in the games helps the player to develop creativity and imagination.
I could not deny the positive side of computer games, but the question is whether young players could really benefit from these advantages, or are they more easily influenced by the false images shown in the games. If young people are lack of enough self-control, computer games will surely lead them to the wrong direction. (119 words)
