21、Children who don’t read proficiently by the end of third grade are far more likely to be left behind in many ways.

The first thing to know about early literacy is that it is critically important; the next, that it connects to a whole lot of other conditions and challenges. But the best thing to know is that there are solutions to the problem of poor reading skills and some smart people working toward them. They could use your help.

“It’s more than an education issue, more than a reading issue,” says Arianne Weldon, director of the Get Georgia Reading Campaign, a collaborative nonprofit founded in 2013. “Getting more kids to read takes more than good schools, more than great teachers, more than loving families. It really does take all of us working together.”

Only 42 percent of Georgia public school children are now reading proficiently by the end of third grade, according to 2019 Georgia Department of Education (DOE) figures — not a great number, but an improvement over the 37 percent recorded in 2015 and lower scores prior to that.

Weldon says children not in that proficiency group are four times more likely to drop out of high school and, further, that every student who doesn’t finish represents an estimated $260,000 in lost earnings and productivity.

“By the end of third grade,” says Mindy Binderman, executive director of Georgia Early Education Alliance for Ready Students, or GEEARS, a nonprofit concerned with early learning, “if children are not reading at grade level, they are less likely to be successful in school, less likely to graduate on time, more likely to engage in risky behavior. The third grade reading marker is such an important indicator of all that comes later and, frankly, all that came before.”

A key national study released by the Annie E. Casey Foundation in 2010 highlighted the reading problem, especially among students from low-income families and children of color; subsequent research has reinforced the correlation between poverty and both reading ability and failure to graduate from high school. Clearly, poverty plays a key role in children’s reading proficiency, influencing the schools they attend and the community resources they can utilize.

Parents’ education level, especially mothers’, is a factor as well. “Maternal education and maternal literacy is a huge predictor of child literacy and educational outcomes,” says Dana Rickman, vice president of the Georgia Partnership for Excellence in Education (GPEE), established by the Georgia Chamber and the Georgia Economic Developers Association to promote and support education. “We’ve got a pretty high adult illiteracy rate in Georgia that a lot of people don’t like talking about.” Improving adult literacy ultimately impacts children’s reading ability.

【1】According to the passage, early literacy is important mainly because it ________.

A．indicate how well a child’s brain has been developing

B．explain the reasons why a child drops out of high school

C．tells whether a child may become successful as an adult

D．reports the average educational level of a certain region

【2】According to Arianne Weldon, what is the most possible consequence of poor reading skills?

A．Entering schools with fewer resources.

B．Achieving more poorly in high school.

C．Earning less than the ordinary people.

D．Causing more risks in future life.

【3】From what Dana Rickman says, we can infer that ________.

A．improving mothers’ education is useful for bettering children’s reading ability

B．exposing children to reading tasks at an early age is part of family support

C．illiteracy rate can be greatly reduced by upgrading children’s communities

D．parents can predict their children’s early literacy based on their resources

【4】If this passage has several remaining paragraphs, which of the following is the most probable topic they will cover?

A．Why third grade is seen bu experts as a critical period.

B．How the government may improve parents’ education level.

C．Why adult illiteracy rate is higher in Georgia than in other places.

D．How poverty may influence a child’s future academic development.

22、Most people feel lonely sometimes, but it usually only lasts between a few minutes and a few hours. This kind of loneliness is not serious. In fact, it is quite normal. For some people, though, loneliness can last for years. Now researchers say there are three different types of loneliness.

The first kind of loneliness is temporary. This is the most common type. It usually disappears quickly and does not require any special attention. The second kind is situation, for example, family problem, the death of loved one, or moving to a new place. Although this kind of loneliness can cause physical problems, such as headaches and sleeplessness, it usually does not last for more than a year. The third kind of loneliness is the most serious. Unlike the second type, chronic (the opposite of “temporary”) usually lasts more than two years and has no specific cause. People who experience habitual loneliness have problems socializing and becoming close to others. However, many chronically lonely people think there is little or nothing they can do to improve their condition.

Psychologists agree that one important factor in loneliness is a person’s social contacts, for example, friends, family members, co-workers, etc. We depend on various people for different reasons. For instance, our families give us emotional support, our parents and teachers give us guidance, and our friends share similar interests and activities. However, psychologists have found that, though lonely people may have many social contacts, they sometimes feel they should have more. They question their popularity.

Psychologists are trying to find ways to help habitually lonely people for two reasons: they are unhappy and unable to socialize and there is a connection between chronic loneliness and serious illness such as heart disease, while temporary and situational loneliness can be a sad, and sometimes dangerous condition.

【1】 How would you treat temporary loneliness according to the passage? ________.

A.  Just ignore it

B. Talk to friends

C. Go to see a doctor

D. Ask your teachers for guidance

【2】Why do psychologists want to help chronically lonely people? ________

A. Chronic loneliness can cause family problems.

B. Chronic loneliness can not be overcome.

C. Chronic loneliness can cause serious illness.

D. Chronic loneliness is incurable.

【3】Loneliness is divided according to _____.

A. different seasons when it appears

B. different people it happens to

C. the time it lasts

D. the places where it appears

【4】What is the best title for the passage? ________

A.  Loneliness and diseases

B. Three kinds of loneliness

C. Loneliness and social contacts

D. Chronic loneliness

23、"Can I see my baby?" the happy new mother asked. When the baby was lying in her arms and she moved the fold of  cloth to look upon his tiny face, she gasped(喘气). The doctor turned quickly and looked out of the tall hospital window. The baby had been born without ears.

24、Autumn Equinox (秋分) lies at the midpoint of autumn, dividing autumn into two equal parts.

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

Once there lived a girl named Melanie. The little girl was living with a dream. She wanted to be a ballet dancer. Her body was very flexible and she had a strong will power. Melanie’s parents never knew of the great dancing skills their daughter had until one day, they saw the little one dancing with the beautiful steps of a ballerina (芭蕾舞女演员).

“Isn’t it strange? Melanie is dancing so well without any formal training!” the mother said.

“We must give her professional lessons to help her improve her skills,” her father said.

The following day, Melanie’s parents took her to a local dance training school. Upon meeting the dance teacher, her parents requested Melanie’s admission to the school. The teacher asked Melanie to dance. The little girl was happy and showed some of her favorite dance steps. However, the teacher didn’t seem interested in her performance. He kept himself busy with other tasks in the dance room while the little girl continued dancing with the hope of impressing the teacher.

“That’s OK. You can leave now!” the teacher said.

Melanie was shocked to hear this. So were her parents. They couldn’t believe their ears.

“The girl is average. She does not have it in her to become a ballerina,” the dance teacher said. “Don’t let her waste her time dreaming of one day becoming a dancer.”

Disappointed, Melanie and her parents returned home. Tears rolled down Melanie’s face. Her dreams were shattered (粉碎) within a matter of minutes. With crushed ( 被 击 碎 的) confidence, Melanie never attempted to dance again. She completed her studies and went on to become a teacher in school. Life was good and she kept herself busy with family and work. However, whenever she happened to pass the school’s ballet room, memories of childhood days danced before her eyes.
