1 阅读理解阅读理解 第一组 A A When talking about picking a right school,a mother and teacher gave some pieces of advice. In the latest issue(期)of Youth magazine,the mother shared the school advice she gave her daughters with young people across the country. “Ive told my daughters many times that I dont want them to choose a name,” the mother said.“I dont want them to think,Oh,I should go to these top schools. We live in a country with hundreds of excellent universities.So the first question is:whats going to work for me?” “When it was time to prepare for picking schools,nobody around me believed I could get into Xiamen University.But through hard work I finally made it,” she continued.“So,my second piece of advice is:believe in yourself,no matter what other people might say.Once your goal is set,you only need to try your best to make it come true.” “The last piece of advice is not to be worried even if your dreams dont come true.As Ive said above,there are so many good universities out there.So its important for everybody to understand that you can always find a university that gives you a great education.” (C)1.The mother shared her advice .

Sir Isaac Newton was sitting in his garden when he saw an apple fall from a tree.He began to think and tried to find out why the apple fell.Then he discovered how the Sun,the Moon,and stars are kept in their places. A boy named James Watt sat quietly by the fire,watching the lid of the kettle move up and down.He wanted to find out why the steam in the kettle moved the lid.From that time he went on thinking and thinking.And when he became a man,he improved the steam engine(蒸汽机) so much that it could easily do the work of many horses. 3 James Ferguson was a poor boy.Once,seeing the inside of a watch,he wondered,“Why should I not make a watch?” But how could he get the materials to make the mainspring(钟表的主发条)?He soon found he could make it with whalebone(鲸骨).He then made a wooden clock which kept good time.His motto(座右 铭) was “I will think of it.” And he made his thoughts useful to himself and the world.

C C 4 Our brain is collecting information about the world around us all the time.It gets information from what we see,hear,touch,taste and smell.The brain works out what the information means and then we react to(对做出反应) that information. But children with autism(自闭症) are different from us.In fact,they can get all the information,but they are not able to understand it all. Their ears can hear,but their brains cannot understand what others are saying.Sometimes,they may feel really unhappy by the everyday noise and will try to shut them out of their ears. Their eyes can see,but some things seem to hurt their eyes and some things seem to be very interesting. Sometimes they are so interested in looking at something that they cant notice what else is going on around them. They will have trouble talking,listening,watching,or understanding what people mean when they are talking.
