A Magical Experience

  One hot August afternoon, Deena Hoagland and her son Joe sat on a floating platform at Dolphins Plus, a marine（海洋）center near their home in Florida. Nearby, a large, powerful, six-hundred-pound dolphin circled to study the mother and her child. Suddenly, it splashed the Hoaglands with water. That is when something amazing happened. Three-year-old Joe Hoagland smiled. Sitting with Joe on her lap, Deena smiled, too, as her heart leapt with joy. It was the first sign of hope she had seen in Joe since his stroke（中风）six weeks earlier.

   Joe Hoagland was born with a rare heart condition that had forced him to spend much of his first three years of life in hospitals. After a series of open-heart surgeries, Joe seemed to be doing better, but the last surgery on his heart resulted in a stroke, which left him unable to move one side and to see out of one eye.

   Worse still, the spirit of the child, who had bravely battled his illness until then was seemingly broken. Afraid of his doctors and unwilling to participate in efforts at physical therapy（治疗）, Joe grew listless, losing interest even in his favorite toys.

   Having heard of a new therapeutic approach termed “dolphin-assisted therapy,” Deena phoned Dolphins Plus and asked permission to bring her son along. There Joe met Fonzie, the playful dolphin. With each passing visit, Joe seemed to make more progress. Before long, he was regaining some movement on his left side. Dolphins Plus trainers urged Joe to get into the water and swim with his new friend. Joe, however, was reluctant. Gradually, though, Joe became more comfortable with the large dolphin, and by mid-September, Joe was swimming with his friends.

   Over the next two years, Joe fully recovered from the paralysis and partial blindness that his doctors thought irreversible. Now a healthy, active teenager, Joe lives a life similar to any of his friends. He visits and swims frequently with his friend Fonzie and helps his parent with Island Dolphin Care. Deena started Island Dolphin Care to work with Dolphins Plus to share the benefits of dolphin therapy with other special-needs children and their parents.

41．Deena Hoagland smiled when Fonzie splashed Joe with water because             .

 A．the dolphin’s action is amazing             B．Joe’s reaction brought her hope

 C．she was affected by Joe’s joy               D．she realized Joe recovered

42．Paragraph 2-4 are written to            .

 A．expose the dangers of strokes

 B．identify the problems Joe faced

 C．describe Joe’s recovery from beginning to end

 D．show readers the process of “dolphin-assisted therapy”

43．What does the underlined word mean in paragraph 3?

 A．angry and inflexible                        B．more mature and silent

 C．lacking energy and concern                  D．cautious and shy

44. Which statement about Joe is Not True?

 A. Joe received several surgeries on the heart when he was a little child.

 B. Joe was the first one to receive dolphin-assisted therapy.

 C. Doctors used to think that Joe could not recover.

 D. Now Joe worked with his parents in the Island Dolphin Care.

45．We may conclude from the passage that            .

 A．dolphin therapy has helped many children to improve their lives

 B．Joe recovered faster because of his desire to live with Fonzie

 C．doctors’ mistake during his surgeries brought Joe great pain

 D．his mother’s company contributes greatly to Joe’s recovery

读写任务(共1小题，满分25分)

阅读下面的短文,然后按照要求写一篇150词左右的英语短文。

The generation gap between students and teachers is becoming more significant with only 3.3 percent out of a survey group of 1,000 students from 30 key middle schools in the city saying they would be willing to tell their teachers of their inner thoughts.

In today’s educational environment, teachers are positioned to be the authority figure for learning instead of also becoming good friends in the life of students.

As only students with good marks in exams are considered the “ apples in the eyes” of the teachers, most students think their teachers to be partial (偏心).

“ I feel sad to hear such remarks”, said Yu Yi , a well-known special-class teacher.

She recalled that in the past, teachers and students would play basketball together or comment on the novels while sitting on the grass during a break. But today, study and good marks are the only topics of conversation between students and teachers.

“Schools are not only the place where knowledge is imparted (传授) but also where students are taught how to be an upright person,” Yu said. “The success of a person is not merely determined by intelligence but also by emotional state. ”

Yang Xiong, director of the Juvenile Research Institute, said the educational system which focuses on examinations should be held to be substantially responsible.
