Dyslexia is a term used to describe a marked difficulty in learning to read despite normal intelligence and vision. The problem is universal, but research suggests it doesn’t affect every culture or language group equally. On China’s mainland and in Japan, for example, dyslexia rates are estimated at less than 5 percent compared to 10 percent to 20 percent in the U.S. There are intriguing theories as to why, and Japan has produced some important clues.
Japanese children first learn to read and write in parallel phonetic alphabets, hiragana(平假名) and katakana(片假名), each containing 46 characters relating to 46 different sounds. After conquering them, the student starts to learning Chinese characters. According to Uno, who works for Japan’s National Center of Neurology and Psychiatry, just 1 percent of Japanese students have dyslexic problems with Chinese characters. The numbers jump a bit when it comes to writing --- 2 percent for hiragana, 3.8 percent for katakana and 5 percent for ideograms --- but they’re still low by American standards.
41. The passage is about ______.
A. dyslexia and intelligence B. dyslexia and culture
C. dyslexia and vision D. dyslexia and personality

A. It is a worldwide problem. B. It is a regional problem.

44. Which of the following is not true of the Japanese language?
A. It is divided into two types of phonetic alphabets.
B. It contains more katakana than hiragana.
C. Hiragana and katakana have the same number of sounds and characters.
D. It includes Chinese characters.
45. What can be inferred from the passage?
A. There is no obvious reason for the unbalanced distribution of dyslexia in the world.
B. The existing theories about dyslexia are solid and conclusive.
C. There are underlying reasons for the differences with dyslexia problems with different peoples.

Orlando Bloom was not a “good” student in school. Because of dyslexia, a reading and writing disorder (障碍), he struggled in many courses.
But Bloom says the dyslexia gave him the encouragement to overcome (克服) his difficulties.
In an interview with the Telegraph, the 32-year-old said the condition turned him into an ambitious person. “Because of the dyslexia, I always thought I had to work twice as hard as everyone else just to go the same distance,” he said. “That gave me a real kick as a kid and a lot of encouragement later on. In one sense, I guess that I'm grateful (感激的).”
Bloom is always preparing it thoroughly(充分地) when it comes to an audition (试镜) for a part. Perhaps this is what won him his role in the Lord of the Rings, a highly successful film trilogy (三部曲). “I really prepared it thoroughly for the audition and it's paid off,” he said.
It was the beginning of a fame that led to even greater success as a movie actor. But unlike some young people who aim for fame and fortune, Bloom believed an acting career “has been fulfilling (实现) his childhood fantasies”.
“Aged 9, I had this girlfriend and we used to have running races in the park to see who would be her boyfriend for the day. I wanted to be like Superman and fly in and rescue her. Once I realized Superman was an actor, I thought, ‘That's for me''.”
Bloom has always played special characters, like a knight (骑士) and a prince. It's difficult to picture him in everyman roles.
In October, Bloom was named Goodwill Ambassador (亲善大使) for the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF). His first task will be to film a documentary about the importance of clean water supplies.
In fact, Bloom started work for the UNICEF in 2007. On his first visit to Nepal, he was asked by students to take a small part in a play they were performing on local radio.
