23、A Writing Fool

In the seventh grade I realized I was dyslexic, which made it difficult for me to read and spell. I did really badly in my history course, so my mother said to me, “I’ll work with you for a full week. I’m going to show you what you can do if you put in the right amount of effort.” So we did. We worked on history for a full week, an extra hour every day. Then I went to school and failed the test, as always. It was really upsetting.

By the time I got to college I came to know that I couldn’t spell no matter how hard I tried. So I would sign up for extra courses. I’d be in registration lines all day. Then I would go around the first day of class and ask each professor: “What’s your policy on misspelling?” If he said, “Three misspellings is a fail,” I’d drop it.

Although I was an academic failure, I had a great time. I had many friends and I was always popular. I was a good football player, which was important in those years because I could read my name in the newspaper. I never had a day when I would think, “People don’t like me.”

In spite of my obvious weaknesses, I became successful in my career, so much so that people say to me, “So you’ve overcome dyslexia.” No. I don’t overcome it. I just learn to compensate for it. Some easy things are hard for me. Most people read 500 words a minute. I only read 200. I try not to dial a phone because I sometimes have to dial three times to get the number right. I owe my successful career to my writing instructor, Ralph Salisbury. He looked past my misspellings and gave   me   encouragement.   So   I   always   feel   confident.   When   I   write   my   books, I’m   seeing everything in my imagination. I write quickly and go like the wind.

The real fear that I have for dyslexic people is not that they have to struggle with their reading skills or that they can’t spell correctly, but that they will quit on themselves before they get out of school.

【1】When the author did badly in the course, his mother thought that    .

A．he needed a better teacher

B．he did not work hard enough

C．he was probably too ill to study

D．he was not as smart as other children

【2】In college, the author was in registration lines all day to    .

A．choose most interesting courses

B．become friends with new classmates

C．stay distance from language teachers

D．avoid courses that require correct spelling

【3】Which of the following best describes the author in college?

A．Happy and active.

B．Shy and unhappy.

C．Successful and funny.

D．Quiet and unsuccessful.

【4】According to the author, it is important for dyslexic people    .

A．not to get out of school

B．not to give up so easily

C．to learn to spell correctly

D．to develop reading skills

24、Although I started learning English during my college years, when I entered the States, I only understood two English words “Yes” and “No”. We learned many grammar rules but we could not make the language connections to the real English world. Language frustration worries almost all first generation immigrants. For example, I got a letter from a Chinese-American who has lived in the States for a long time and has a good IT job saying “My 11-year-old girl writes quite well, but as her parents, we could not even read her article.”In addition, my Chinese-American professor friend has difficulty reading a novel. Improving our English skills has become a long journey for all of us. Honestly, if I have a chance, I really want to reach out to everyone in the world who has had a similar experience: learning a second language in adulthood. I wish I could encourage them to speak out about the culture shock, frustration they felt about the differences between West and East.

I have mainly focused on my English writing since 2008 after I found “Literacy Volunteers”, an organization that specially focuses on helping immigrants improve their English. I decided to challenge myself, writing a story like an American. I saw many wonderful Americans there. As soon as I met my teacher Alice, I asked her to be my private language tutor and have taken Tims English class. Every week Alice and I have worked on my English essays sentence by sentence.

To observe the culture differences between West and East, occasionally, I posted a few of my English essays online. I mentioned previously about American culture; when people read the same article or even face the same situation, American and Chinese act very differently. In my viewpoint, these differences make America the strongest country in the world. I know you have the right to express your own opinions, but accusing others without proof is not acceptable.

【1】The underlined word “frustration” in the first paragraph means .

A. failure and setbacks   B. words and problems

C. understanding and progress   D. slang and idioms

【2】In the passage, “Literacy Volunteers” is .

A. only intended to help the Chinese-Americans

B. an organization which is set up to make a profit

C. of great use to people like the author

D. a school showing how to enjoy literature

【3】From the last paragraph we can learn that .

A. Americans and Chinese are of the same idea about something

B. culture shock only exists between Chinese and Americans

C. accusing others freely can be acceptable in America

D. culture differences have great influence on the people

【4】The purpose of the passage is .

A. to show how hard a Chinese-American lives in America

B. to share her experience of improving her English

C. to imply grammar rules are not important

D. to warn Chinese-Americans of English

26、阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

Finders Keepers

It was the middle of the day on a bright sunny Saturday, Jay and his friends Mike and Tony were riding their dirt bikes on one of their favorite off-road trails （小路）. They usually didn’t ride early in the day or in the evening because hikers and runners liked the trail too, but the hikers and runners generally used the trail in the mornings and evenings.

On this particular day, when Jay and the boys were sitting on a tree branch to take a break, Jay spotted something shiny on the ground. “What do you think that could be?” he asked Mike and Tony as he pointed out the object reflecting the sun.

They all hopped down from the branch and went to take a closer look. What they found was incomprehensible to them. It was a gold money clip holding five hundred dollars.

Mike immediately exclaimed, “Awesome! We can split up the money, and we will each be much closer to being able to buy the new bikes we want. ”   “Not so fast,” said Tony. “Jay was the one who spotted the cash.   To be fair, he should get more than us. He should get three hundred dollars, and we should each get one hundred dollars. ”

“What are you guys, crazy?” asked Jay. “We can't keep the money. It isn't ours. Aren't we more mature than to play finders keepers like we did when we were kids?”

“Stop being such an advocate for honesty,” groaned Mike and Tony.

“Whoever lost the money wasn't very responsible and should learn a lesson about walking around with that much cash on them anyhow,” added Mike.

“Let's all go home and think about this,” said Jay. Mike and Tony agreed to Jay's suggestion. Jay kept the money, and they all rode their bikes home. They decided to meet up later at the head of the off-road trail.

注意：

1. 续写词数应为150左右；

Jay, Mike and Tony met back up after dinner that day.
