【解析】

试题分析:本文讲述的是:无论我什么时候去邮局,邮局的位置在哪里,我总是落后于那些有一大堆事情要忙的人后面。买邮票排队时,由于站在前面的老妇人办事太慢,我换了另条队,但情况却更糟糕,好不容易轮到自己时,邮局却到了午饭时间。

【1】when 考查连词。文中I go to a post office是一个完整的句子,故应填的是一个副词作状语,与No matter构成连词,由下文standing in line behind someone,可知我总是落在别人后面,此处强调我去邮局的时间与地点,no matter when 无论何时何地。故用when。

【2】myself 考查动词find的用法。Find myself doing sth,发现自己正在做某事,故用反身代词myself。

【3】to finish 考查动词的用法。Sb take some time to do sth,故用不定式to finish。

【4】Feeling 考查非谓语动词的用法。此处现在分词引导伴随状语,表进行时态,感觉到自己无法在这样的队里等下去 ,于是决定换另条队,故用Feeling。

【5】another 考查another 的介词用法。Another one,表示又一个,我又换了一条队,故用another。

【6】long 考查形容词的用法。由下文It turned out to be the worst choice,可知这条队更慢,twice as long as the first line,是第一条队两倍长,故用long。

【7】lost 考查动词时态。As soon as….一….就….,所引导的前后时态应一致,故用过去式lost。

【8】but 考查固定搭配。Have no choice but to do sth,别无选择只能….., 故用but。

【9】the 考查定冠词的用法。表特指用定冠词the,故用the。

【1】said考查动词时态。由前文动词时态pushed可知动作发生于过去时,而说话者动作与前面动作时态应一致,故此处为过去时态,故用said。

【题目】A cancer-stricken British teenage girl said Thursday she had been moved by messages of support from around the world after writing an online "Bucket List" of things she wanted to do before dying.

【题目】So long as teachers fail to tell the difference be-tween teaching and learning, they will continue to undertake to do for children that which only children can do for themselves. Teaching children to read is not passing reading on to them. It is certainly not endless hours spent in activities about reading. Douglas insists that “reading cannot be taught directly and schools should stop trying to do the impossible".

Teaching and learning are two entirely different processes. They differ in kind and function. The function of teaching is to create the conditions and the climate that will make it possible for children to plan cleverly the most efficient (有效的)system for teaching themselves to read. Teaching is also a public activity: It can be seen and observed.

Learning to read involves all that each individual does to understand the world of printed language. Almost all of it is private, for learning is an occupation of the mind, and that process is not open to public scrutiny.

If teacher and learner roles are not interchangeable, what then can be done through teaching that will aid the child in the long search for knowledge? Smith has one principle rule for all teaching instructions. "Make learning to read easy, which means making reading a meaningful, enjoyable and frequent experience for children.

When the roles of the teacher and the learner are seen for what they are, and when both the teacher and the learner fulfill them properly, then much of the pressure and feeling of failure for both is got rid of. Learning to read is made easier when teachers create an environment where children are given the chance to solve the problem of learning to read by reading.

A. teachers can make their teaching activities ob-servable

D. teachers can enable students to develop their own way of reading

【3】 The word "scrutiny" (Paragraph 3) most probably means _____ ”.

A. unbelief

B. control

C. inquiry

D. observation

【4】 The main idea of the passage is that _____.

A. reading is more complicated than believable

B. reading ability is something gained rather than taught

C. teachers should encourage students to read as widely as possible

D. teachers should do as little as possible in helping students learn to read
