   Dyslexia is a learning disorder, and it interferes with the ability to recognize words, and for some readers to under?stand what they have read. Experts say dyslexia affects about five to ten per cent of the population of the United States. Researchers have long known that people with dyslexia write or read words and letters backwards in the wrong order.

   But a new study shows that people with dyslexia may have trouble redirecting their attention between senses, from seeing something to hearing something. The study suggests something that might help dyslexic people learn more quick?ly―play video games.

Vanessa Harrar of Britain's University of Oxford led the study. She reported the findings in the journal Current Biolo?gy, The study suggests that dyslexic people may have trouble moving quickly from what they read to what they hear.

In the study, Doctor Harrar tested 17 people with dys?lexia and 19 others without reading problems. The volunteers were asked to push a button as quickly as possible when they heard a sound, saw a light or experienced both together. Doc?tor Harrar compared the speed of their reactions. She found that people with dyslexia were 〗ust as fast as the others when they saw only a picture or heard only a sound. But the dys-lexics had a slower reaction time when they heard a sound and saw a picture at the same time. This may have an effect on how dyslexic children are taught how to read.

Doctor Harrar feels like playing video games could help dyslexic people shift from seeing to hearing more quickly. She adds that images in video games force the eyes to move and focus quickly. " Video game types of things pop out of here and there, they move your eyes around the screen quite quick?ly in response to things quite quickly, and the more you play a video game the faster you get that kind of thing. So, the vide-o game is really training the attention system to move quick?ly," said Harrar. When children learn the alphabet, they usually see the letter first and then hear the sound , or they see and hear the letter at the same time. The study shows that dyslexics might learn more quickly if they hear the sound of a letter or word first before seeing it.

5.According to Doctor Harrar's study, the dyslexic people
have difficulty in__________ .

 A.     recognizing words

B.     reading words backwards

C.     writing letters in order

D.     shifting from seeing to hearing

6. Which factor affects the way dyslexic children are taught to read?

B.     They react as fast as others to a single picture or sound.

C.     It takes them longer to react to sounds and pictures together.

D.     It is difficult for them to understand before seeing the word.

7.How does the author suggest dyslexics are taught based on the research finding?

 A.     By putting hearing previous to seeing.

B.     By training the attention on games.

C.     By seeing first and then hearing later.

D.     By moving the eyes around the screen.

8. What can be the best title of the passage?

 A.     Video games might help dyslexics

B.     Dyslexia affects attention between senses

C.     Video games can train the attention system

A [2.015 "绥化市三校高三联考]

While success is surely sweeter than failure, it seems failure is a far better teacher, and organizations that fail mis?erably often flourish (繁荣)more in the long run, according to a new study by Vinit Desai, assistant professor of manage?ment at the University of Colorado Denver Business School. Researchers have found that people missing their goals per?form much better in the long run. That is because they gain more knowledge from their failures than their successes and the lessons are more likely to stay longer in their minds.

"We found that the knowledge gained from success was often fleeting while knowledge from failure stuck around for years," said professor Desai, who led the study. "But compa?nies often ignore failure. Managers may fire people or turn over the whole workforce while they should treat the failure as a learning opportunity.,,

Professor Desai compared the flights of the space shuttle Atlantis and the Challenger. During the Atlantis' flight last year, a piece of insulation(绝缘体)broke off and damaged the left solid rocket booster (火箭助推器)but didn't influ?ence the programme. There was little investigation. The Challenger was launched next and another piece of insulation broke off. This time the shuttle and its seven-person crew were destroyed. The disaster led to a major investigation re?sulting in 29 changes to prevent future disasters.

The difference in response in the two cases came down to this : Atlantis was considered a success and the Challenger a failure.

"Despite crowded skies, airlines are extremely reliable," he said. " The number of failures is extremely small. And past researches have shown that older airlines, those with more experience in failure, have a lower number of acci?dents. "

Professor Desai doesn't recommend finding out failure in order to learn. Instead, he advises organizations to analyse small failures to collect useful information rather than wait for major failures.

1. Why did experts pay little attention to the problem of At?lantis?

 A.     Because it worked perfectly.

B.     Because the right booster was still OK.

C.     Because nothing serious happened then.

D.     Because fewer people died in the flight.

2.Fewer accidents happen to older airlines in that . 

A. their planes couldn't fly high in the sky

 B.      they gained much from experience in failure

C.      their planes were often checked by the experts

D.     they were unpopular among passengers

 3.The passage is written mainly to_____________ .

 A.     show failure is a better teacher than success

B.     explain why the Challenger failed

C.     introduce something about Professor Desai

D.     tell managers how to achieve success

4.Which writing strategy is NOT used in developing the passage?

 A.     Giving definitions.

B.     Making comparisons.

C.     Analysing causes.

D.     Providing different examples.

A Korean wave is sweeping across China, with many Chinese women worshipping Korean actors Kim Soo-hyun and Lee Min-ho as demigods (被神化的人物).Chinese denizens always have different opinions over Korean TV dramas, but there is no doubt that pro?grammes from the neighbouring country are now enjo?ying a new round of popularity in China. And a big part of the credit for that goes to You Who Came from the Star , the Korean TV series.

You Who Came from the Star and The Heirs (《继承者们》)have been subjects of hot online discussions throughout Asia. Besides, the book, The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane, read by the hero in You Who Came from the Star was a hard-to-get item on Am?azon for a while.

The two TV programmes have several common ele?ments M) : a tall, handsome, and rich hero who loves the heroine blindly and always protects her, and an equally handsome man madly in love with the same woman. Both programmes describe the purity of love, which is expressed through a kiss or a warm hug. Per?haps that's the secret of their success; perhaps people still like Cinderella-type stories.

The widening wealth gap is a matter of social con?cern both inKoreaandChina, and the challenges that young people face in their hope for a better life might have caused many ordinary girls to dream of marrying rich, caring men. This is precisely what the popular Ko?rean TV dramas describe. In fact > Korean TV dramas are tailored to meet the market's demands.

Many denizens even said at an earlier time that Ko?rean TV dramas had become popular because of their stereotyped (模式化的)themes: traffic accidents, canc?er and other incurable diseases. But all that has changed with the success of You Who Came from the Star and The Heirs , which Chinese directors can use as exam?ples, as well as inspiration, to improve their produc?tions,

1.Which is NOT included in the elements for the suc?cess of Korean dramas?

A.Charming pure love stories.

B.A tender kiss and a warm hug.

C.Handsome and rich heroes.

D.The heroine's blind love with the rich.

2.The underlined sentence in Paragraph 4 means that they are designed to .

A.develop in a large scale

B.be measured to a certain size

C.meet popular taste purposely

Dbe shown in a big market

3The main purpose of stereotyped themes in Korean dramas is to .

A.present an idea

B.attract TV viewers

C.make them colourful

D.arouse some challenges

4.In the last sentence ,  about Chinese dramas , the writer expressed his .

A.expectation   B. satisfaction

C.excitement      D. requirement

B [2015 •南京市、盐城市高三年级第一次模拟〗According to figures released by the Office for National Statistics (ONS) , the UK has about 7. 7 million families with dependent children, of which 3. 7 million have just one child, compared to 3 million with two and 1. 1 million with three children or more. The number of families today with just one dependent child is now 47 per cent and will likely rise to more than 50 per cent in a decade. As the ONS confirms, "It ap?pears that families are getting smaller."

One obvious reason for this could be that women are put-ting off having children until they have established careers when they are bound to be less fertile. But it could just as well be a matter of choice. Parents must consider the rising cost of living, combined with economic uncertainty and an in?creasingly difficult job market. And this trend may continue growing as having an only child becomes more normal, which seems to be the mood on the mothers' online forum Mums-net, where one member announced that she "just wanted to start a positive thread about how fab it is to have an only child".

She had received 231 replies, overwhelmingly in the same upbeat spirit. Parents of only children insist there are plenty of benefits. Nicola Kelly, a writer and lecturer who grew up as an only child and is now a married mother of one child, says her 15-year-old son seems more grown-up in many ways than his contemporaries.

Not all products of single-child families are as keen to re-' peat the experience.  In a moving recent account journalist Janice Turner wrote about her own keenness to "squeeze out two sons just 22 months apart" as a reaction to her only-child upbringing.

She was placed on a pedestal by her doting parents, whom she punished with a "brattish, wilful" rejection of eve?rything they stood for. Desperate for a close friend she was repeatedly shattered by rejection and refers to her childhood as being "misery".

Writer and clinician Dr Dorothy Rowe, a member of the British Psychological Society , says that we all interpret events in our own individual way and there are some children who no matter what their circumstances feel slighted, while other children see the advantages of their situation.

However, the one part of life that is unlikely to get any easier for only children is when they grow up and find them?selves looking after their own parents as they become older.

5.The passage is written with the purpose of___________ .

 A.     illustrating the strength and weakness of having an on?ly child

B.     analysing the reasons why having an only child be?comes popular

C.     presenting us with different opinions about having an only child

D.     guiding people to look at the same issue from different perspectives

6. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 4 mean?

 A.     Nearly half of families intend to have just one child.

B.     All people don't stand for the idea of having an only child.

C.     Some people fail to recognize the advantage of having an only child.

D.     People brought up in an only child family resist down?sizing the family.

7. From what Dr Dorothy Rowe said, we know that____________ .

 A.    journalist Janice Turner experienced a miserable child?hood

B.     she has a positive attitude towards Janice Turner's re?action

C.     it's necessary for us to look at the event from our own angle

D.    some are unable to make an objective assessment of their conditions

8.What can be inferred from the passage?

 A.     It's normal to see the imperfection in character in only children.

B.      Mumsnet is an online forum which promotes having an only child.

C.      Economic development plays a determining role in the family size.

D.     Only children will have difficulty in attending to their parents.
