POINTINGATWORDS

Afaultthatisoftenseenwhenstudentsaretryingtoconcentrateispointingtothewordswithafinger,pencilorruler.Youngchildrenandverypoorreadersoftenpointwithafingerateachwordinturn.Slightlymorematurereaderssometimesholdapencilorrulerunderneaththelinewhichtheyarereading.Whilemarkingthelinemightbehelpfulforbeginningreaders,itiscertainlyunnecessaryfornormalreaders.Besidesslowingdownthereaderthroughthemeremechanicalmovementofpencil,ruler,orfinger,pointingatlinesorwordstendstocausethestudenttofocushisattentiononthewrongthing.Theimportantthingtoconcentrateonwhilereadingistheideathattheauthoristryingtocommunicate,andnotthelocationofthewordsonthepage.Theeyesofanychildoldenoughtolearnhowtoreadarecertainlyskillfulenoughtobeabletofollowalineofprintwithoutextrahelpfromfingersorrulers.

Anothercommonfaultthatiseasilyobservedisheadmovement.Thismostoftenoccurswhenstudentsarenervousabouttheirreadingortryinghard,asduringareadingspeedtest.Withheadmovementthestudenttriestoaimhisnoseatthewordheisreadingsothatashereadsacrossthelinehisheadturnsslightly.Whenhemakesthereturnsweeptobeginanewlinehisheadquicklyturnsbacksothathisnoseispointedattheleft-handmargin,andhecannowbegintoreadthenewlinebyslowlyturninghishead.Thebeliefthatthisheadmovementaidsreadingispurenonsense.Eyemusclesarequitecapableofshiftingtheeyesfromwordtoword,andthe)'neednohelpfromneckmuscles.

Oftenstudentsarequiteunawarethattheyaremovingtheirheadswhilereadingandtheyneedtoberemindedbytheteachernottodo-it.

VOCALIZATION

Vocalizationisanotherfault.Somepoorreadersthinkitnecessarytopronouncealoudeachwordasitisread.Usuallythispronunciationisquitesoft,sothatthestudentismorewhisperingtohimselfthanactuallyreadingaloud,buteventhisisveryundesirable.Thechiefdisadvantageofpronouncingwordswhileyoureadthemisthatittendstotiereading'speedtospeakingspeed,andthesilentreadingofmostnormalreadersisnearlytwiceasfastastheirspeaking.Usuallythisfaultcanbeeliminatedinolderstudentsbytheirownconsciouseffort,possiblywiththeaidofafewremindersfromtheteacher.

參考答案

1.prolongthesituationprolongthesituation解析：由題干關鍵詞pushthedeadlines和shifthisattention可將答案定位至第三個小標題下第二段。inorderto是問這樣做的目的，由此可知答案是該段主題句：prolongthesituation。

2.“USDAOrganic”“USDAOrganic”解析：本題涉及到標識問題，從而將題目出處定位到HowDoIKnowifaFoodisorganic?部分。該部分第二段首句Foodsgrownandprocessedaccordingtothefederalstandardswillinmostcasesbeartheseal“USDAorganic”即為答案出處。

3.B解析：細節(jié)題。依據“Hamburgers”這個標題下第一段第四句“Likehotdogs，hamburgersareafavoritepicnicfood．”

4.thickcoveringsorskinsthickcoveringsorskins解析：題干關鍵詞minimizelossofwater與原文minimizeevaporation同義，因此將答案定位至第三個小標題下第四段第三句。Bothhavethickcoveringsorskinstominimizeevaporationandconservewater。

5.B解析：文章第四段中提到沙漠中最普遍的能源是陽光，最需要的是水，而不是新鮮空氣。

6.B解析：文章第一段第一句提到，“realessaysarenotexclusivelyaboutEnglishliterature”關鍵是對“exclusively”一詞的理解，意思是專門地。文中這句話的意思是真正的散文并不專指英國文學。而題干意思是真正的散文僅限于英國文學，因此本題錯誤。

7.B解析：本題定位信息是adultery，從而鎖定InCourtorOnline?部分。該部分第三段中提到了adultery是夫妻一方可以提出離婚的理由，第四段又補充道，發(fā)現adultery行為發(fā)生后，分居六個月以上就可以算作“無法忍受”，但如果發(fā)現了adultery行為，卻仍住在一起六個月以上，離婚的請求將不被接受。題干“發(fā)現對方奸情半年內提出離婚都將被批準”與文章事實不符，故錯誤。

8.A

9.C解析：原文該句中的duringmeWorldWarⅡ…theExclusionlawsWereended明確表明本題應選C。干擾項D中的1965在原文該段末句提及，但與ChineseExclusionAct無關，故不能選。

10.A解析：分析判斷題。本文的第五段中提到：“TheAug．3event，organizedbyapublicradioprogram，w
