Some people have the feeling that nothing can be done about their poor reading ability(能力). They feel hopeless about it. Can you learn to read better, or must you agree that nothing can be done about it?

To be sure, people are different. You cannot to do everything as well as certain other people do. If all the students in a class tried out for basketball, some would be very good players; others would be very poor; and many would be in between. But even the very poor players can become much better players if they are guided in the right way, and with plenty of practice. It is the same with reading. Some seem to enjoy reading and to read well without any special help. Others find reading a slow and tiring job. In between, there are all degrees of reading ability.

Many experiments have shown that just about every poor reader can improve his reading ability. In these experiments, the poor readers were given tests of reading ability. After some of the causes of their poor reading were discovered, they were given special instruction and practice in reading. After a few months, another test of the same kind was given. In nearly all cases, these people had raised their reading scores.

Knut lived in Berlin’s zoo. He was four and raised by zookeepers since a cub (幼崽) after his mother deserted him.

Now reports say the attention-­loving polar bear was found dead in a pool in his cage at the Zoologischer Garten Berlin Saturday, with no immediate cause of death announced.

“This is awful,” said Berlin’s mayor Klaus Wowereit, according to the Sydney Herald. “We had all taken him to our hearts. He was the star of the Berlin Zoo.”

Most reports say Knut was alone when he died, as visitors watched him suddenly fall into the water. The known news site TMZ.com carried news of his death and says People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals’ German branch had previously complained that Knut suffered a lot from his mother and other bears.

Knut was very famous to many people, only because he seemed to love the limelight (出风头). After his first performance at the popular zoo, he became its star attraction, raising much income for the zoo and producing toys, DVDs and more. He was not diagnosed as being ill at the time, reports say. An investigation (调查) into the cause of his death is underway.

To everyone’s surprise, his beloved keeper, Thomas Doerflein, also died at an early age. Doerflein died at 44 in 2013 in his apartment after he had fed the cub and slept by its side, but later was told no longer to play or wrestle with Knut. At that time Knut was becoming an adult polar bear and considered too dangerous to interact with closely. Doerflein reportedly suffered a heart attack. Knut acted unhappily after his friend’s death.

59. When Knut was four, ________.

A. he left his birthplace                        B. he became homeless

C. he was kept by zookeepers            D. he went into a zoo by mistake

60. We know from the passage that Knut ________.

A. became a popular toy                  B. was well protected in the zoo

C. brought in lots of money for the zoo          D. was the only important cub in the zoo

61. It can be inferred from the passage that ________.

A. nobody saw Knut when he fell into the water

B. Knut and his keeper loved each other deeply

C. Knut and his keeper died of the same disease

D. Knut’s mother and other bears were nice to Knut

62. What would be the best title for the passage?

Dear Maria,

                                                                 Yours，                       

                                                                  LiHua              

We encounter pressure every single day in our life and work, and there are two main causes for it. The first is that wherever we work or live we will encounter challenges, difficulties and obstacles. All of these will create pressure for us. This kind of pressure is regarded as natural. As long as the hurdles(障碍) are overcome, the pressure will disappear naturally. But, the second cause of pressure is not so easily eliminated. The second cause of pressure is our own imaginings. This pressure from our own thoughts is much more difficult to get rid of because it has no real cause.

When we feel under pressure, we should first examine our lives and work to see whether there have been any recent changes. If so, have these changes have created new challenges, difficulties, and obstacles? If there happen to be any, it means that you are experiencing natural pressure, and as soon as the barrier is crossed, the pressure will fade naturally. On the other hand, if we find there have been no changes but we still feel pressured, then there is a big possibility that our feelings of pressure arise from the second cause, namely our own foolish act of indulging in agonizing delusions. If this happens, what should we do? The simplest way to deal with the problem is to transform our thought patterns and habits. In other words, we need to get a “brain transplant.”

If you often have anxiety, frustration, or pressure coming out of nowhere, if you were feeling fine when you suddenly became depressed because of too much pressure, then without doubt your subconscious is up to something. The best way to resolve this problem is to change your thinking habit.  Start thinking positively.  Always look on the bright side of life, and replace your old mind with a new one. And then, all your worries will be solved and all the pressures will vanish. I wish everyone a successful “brain transplant,” and let your heart be joyful and your spirits lifted.

33. Which of the following belongs to the second cause of the pressure?

A. Moving to a new neighborhood.

B. Being afraid of failing an exam.

C. Mother having a new baby.

D. Switching to a new job.

34. Which of the following isn’t the way that you deal with the second cause of the pressure?

A. Transforming our thought patterns and habits.

B. Starting thinking positively.

C. Looking on the bright side of life.

D. Having a rest for a few days.

35. The author mainly tells us in Paragraph 2 that           .

A. different pressure needs different ways to deal with

B. we should classify the pressure and then solve it in different ways

C. pressures can be ruled out if we can classify them clearly

D. we should face the pressure and deal with it positively
