A
Kendall Harvey has an unusual hobby.He used to be a worker in a bike factory and retired (退休) six years ago.Harvey began working on motors and wheels, building himself a machine that he and his wife used to travel to the mountains.
One day, while having a meal at a local restaurant, he met another dad out with his small son, who was disabled (残疾的).He listened as the boy expressed a wish for a bike, like his friends.Harvey went home and started working, and soon he made a motorized (机动的) bike.
Since then, Harvey has made the dreams of 140 other children come true.Thanks to a donation from Walmart, Harvey's garage is filled with bicycles of all sizes, just waiting for him to rebuild them for a child.Through friends and relatives he hears about kids who can't see or use their arms and legs because of injury (伤口,受伤 ) or birth defect (出生缺陷).
Harvey meets the kids, talks to them about the kind of bike they'd like, then takes their sizes.He picks out a suitable bike, and adds extra wheels, a sidecar for dolls, or a small radio.Within a few weeks, he has made a child's dream come true.
They are independent (独立的) because they have a bike.
Children of all ages use Harvey's bikes.Several are in their twenties or even thirties physically, but mentally (心理上) they are five, six or seven.The price Harvey asks for all this is the pictures with them when they receive their machines, the hugs and kisses they give him, and the joy he sees on their faces as they operate the bike all by themselves.For him, that is enough.
( )56.Harvey's hobby is unusual because________.
A.he retired six years ago
B.he made a special machine for him and his wife to travel to the mountains

A.40 B.100
C.60 D.140
( )59.What can't he get for building these loved bikes for the disabled?
A.A lot of money.
11
B.Kisses from the children.
C.Hugs from them.
D.Pictures with them and the joy on their faces.
( )60. The story mainly talks about ________.
A.Harvey's unusual hobby
B.the poor children
C.the lucky children
D.special bikes
B
It seems more and more Americans want schools to teach foreign languages to children younger than five years old.The most popular way to teach these young children another language is called immersion (沉浸式语言教学法).
Children in immersion programs hear only the new language in the classroom.The children play games, sing songs and talk to one another in the new languages, some experts (专家) say immersion programs are the most effective (有效的) way for young children to learn a language.But there can be a problem when children in the United States begin to learn another language at such an early age.Not many elementary schools continue to teach a foreign language.Only seven of the fifty states require (要求) schools to teach a foreign language to students between the ages of six and twelve.Language experts say it is easier for younger children to learn a language.Still, American schools generally do not begin to teach foreign languages until secondary schools.By then, students are about thirteen years old.
American schools face difficult choices about the cost of educational programs.The government has increased support for foreign language study in its education law called No Child Left Behind.
At the college, the Modern Language Association says more students than ever are studying foreign languages and more languages are being studied now than in the past.Spanish is the most widely (广泛地) taught in American colleges and universities.French, German, Chinese and Italian are also popular.
( )61.The most popular way to teach the American children another language is called ________.
A.task B.speaking
C.immersion D.listening
( )62.Where is Spanish the most widely taught?
A.In American colleges and universities.
B.In American secondary schools.
C.In American high schools.
D.In American elementary schools.
( )63.Students in immersion programs can do the following things except ________.
A.talking to one another in the new language
B.hearing their native language
C.playing games in the new language
D.hearing the new language
( )64.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A.The government doesn't support this program.
B.All schools will take part in the immersion program.
C.It's the best for children to learn a foreign language at an early age.
D.Not many elementary schools continue to teach a foreign language.
( )65.What is the passage mainly about?
A.Foreign language teaching in America.
B.Foreign language teaching ways in America.
C.Foreign language teaching in American universities.
11
D.Foreign language teaching in America high schools.

Dear_Miss_Zhao,
As_you_know,_I've_made_great_progress_in_English_with_your_help.At_this_moment,_I_want_to_say_“Thank_you”.
I still remember when I began to learn English, I found it too difficult.No matter how
11
hard I tried, I still couldn't do well in it.I lost my confidence and almost gave it up.As soon as you knew it, you had a long talk with me about how to learn English well.You always encouraged me whenever I made a little progress.Ever since then I have been interested in it and improved myself a lot.
Though I have to say goodbye to you very soon, I still think I am so lucky to be your student.I hope you can relax yourself and keep healthy.
Best_wishes_to_you!
Yours,
