11、essing mentally the sounds and ideas they represent. Concepts of reading have changed 50 over the centuries. During the 1950s and 1960s especially, increased attention has been devoted to 51 the reading process. Although experts agree that reading 52 a complex organization of higher mental 53 , they
12、 disagree about the exact nature of the process. Some experts, who regard language primarily as a code using symbols to represent sounds, 54 reading as simply the decoding(解码)of symbols into the sounds they stand for.These authorities 55 that meaning, being concerned with thinking, must be taught in
13、dependently of the decoding process. Others maintain that reading is inexplainably related to thinking, and that a child who pronounces sounds without 56 their meaning is not truly reading. The reader, 57 some, is not just a person with a theoretical ability to read but one who 58 reads.Many adults,
14、 although they have the ability to read, have never read a book in its 59 . By some experts they would not be 60 as readers. Clearly, the philosophy, objectives, methods and materials of reading will depend on the definition one use. By the most 61 and satisfactory definition, reading is the ability
15、 to 62 the sound-symbols code of the language, to interpret meaning for various 63 , at various rates, and at various levels of difficulty, and to do so widely and enthusiastically. 64 , reading is the interpretation of ideas through the use of symbols representing sounds and ideas.50.

19、nk with the word or phrase that best fits the context.When we read books we seem to enter a new world. This new world can be similar to the one we are living in, or it can be very_50_. Some stories are toldas ifthey were true. Real people who live in a _51_world do real things; in other words, the s
20、tories are about people just like us doing what we do. Other stories, such as the Harry Potter books, are not_52_. They are characters and creatures that are very different from us and do things that would beimpossiblefor us.But there is more to books and writing than this. If we think about it, eve

For example, when we read about Harry Potter, wedo seem to learn something about the real world. And when Harry studies magic at Hogwarts, he also learns more about his real life than_54_. Read
22、ing, like writing, is an action. It is a way ofthinking. When we read or write something, we do much more than simple look at words on a page. We use our_55_, which is real, and our imagination, which is real in a different way, to make the words come to life in our minds.Both realism and fantasy (幻

Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.There is a Web site called the “World Database of Happiness”. It combines and analyzes the results of hundreds of surveys from around the w
29、orld that have been conducted on life satisfaction. Most of the findings are _50_, but a few are surprising.The database makes it clear that there is not a strong connection between material wealth and general happiness. It is a clich(陈词滥调) to say that money cant buy happiness, but the old saying se
30、ems to be _51_ by research. Many people still stick to the belief that gaining riches will be the answer to all their problems, yet they are probably _52_. Studies have been _53_ on people who acquired sudden wealth, such as lottery winners. In most cases, after the _54_ joy had worn off, people wer
31、e not left with a sense of lasting happiness. In fact, they tended to revert to the way they _55_ before they became rich. Previously contented(满意的) people continue to be contented, _56_ those who were miserable before sink back into misery. If material wealth does not bring happiness, then what doe
32、s? Perhaps happiness has something to do with where you live. The authorities at the World Database on Happiness have surveyed _57_ of happiness in different countries. _58_, people in America, Canada, and Singapore are very happy; people living in India and Russia, not surprisingly, are not happy.
33、Other surveys consistently _59_ the importance of relationships. _60_ relationships in particular seem to be the key to long-term contentment. The Web site suggests that falling in love and having children are two of the _61_ that bring the greatest happiness. Nowadays people look to technology as a
34、(n) _62_ source of satisfaction. People increasingly spend more time alone watching TV or surfing the Internet _63_ spending time with family. Can technology truly make people happy? It is too difficult to tell, but one thing is sure: If the Web sites research is accurate, time spent with your famil

39、ting (呕吐), using laxatives (泻药) or diet pills.A study 51 more than 2500 American high school students found that girls who ate five or more family meals a week had a much healthier 52 with food in later life.The research, 53 in international magazine Archives of Pediatrics and Adolescent Medicine, p

Regular family meals were found to have a protective effect 54 the girls age, weight, socio-economic status, dieting habits or relationship with her family.Experts say doctors should 55 families to have dinner at the table 5

42、 they are feeling completely depressed, they 57 something that they can control and food is something 58 and accessible for them to control. 59 , if theyre sitting with their family on a regular basis then their family can be more in 60 of their eating,” Ms Dalton said. “Its about young people feeli
43、ng 61 their family and that builds self-esteem (自尊) and sense of 62 and that works very actively against someone developing an eating disorder.”An eating disorders expert, Kirsty Greenwood, said meal times were often difficult for sufferers. “Its typical that they feel very 63 of their eating habits
44、 and often wont eat with other people. Perhaps its because they havent 64 the importance of the family meal in their growing up,” she said.50. A. behaviorsB. therapies C. progressD. development51.

Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.The famous American inventor Thomas Alva Edison once claimed that genius was one percent inspiration an
48、d ninety-nine percent perspiration(汗水). Now, it seems, there is scientific evidence to _50_ his claim. The idea that geniuses such as Shakespeare, Mozart, and Picasso possessed certain inborn talents is a false belief, according to a study by a British psychologist and his colleagues.After examining
49、 outstanding performance in the arts and sports, these researchers concluded that _51_ is determined by opportunity, encouragement, training, motivation, self-confidence, and most important of all _52_. Even people who were not thought to be 53_ with any special talent could, after having received t
50、raining, reach levels _54_ considered attainable (可获得的) only by gifted individuals. Talent is a false belief, and it is time that people got rid of it,” they said.This theory a dramatic _55_ with traditional beliefs has been _56_ by academics worldwide. In fact, studies of accomplished artists and m
51、athematicians, and top tennis players and swimmers, have reported few early signs of _57_ in these people before any parental encouragement. No case has been found of anyone reaching the highest levels of achievement without _58_ himself or herself to thousands of hours of serious training. Even tho
52、se who are believed to be exceptionally talented whether in music, mathematics, chess, or sports have needed lengthy periods of instruction and practice to achieve their highest level of success. The persistent false belief that some people reach high levels of performance without spending numerous
53、hours practising _59_ much to the fact that their practice is usually outside the casual observers view, stated one scientist.The importance of practice has been noticed in athletics. For instance, differences in the composition of certain muscles were once thought to be _60_ predictors of athletic
54、performance. However, the differences in the proportion of certain muscle fibers(组织) that are _61_ for success in long-distance running are largely the result of extended practice in running.What makes a genius then? one may ask. _62_, there is no clear answer. What is known, however, is that nurtur
55、e is at least as important as nature. _63_, a supportive environment will do far more for a childs prospects of success than any inborn gifts. This is a message that most of us will find _64_ even if we havent won the gene lottery, our fate is still in our own hands.50. A. makeB. challengeC. support
