Teaching children to read is not passing reading on to
7、 them. It is certainly not endless hours spent in activities about reading. Douglas insists that “reading cannot be taught directly and schools should stop trying to do the impossible”.Teaching and learning are two entirely different processes. They differ in kind and function. The function of teach
8、ing is to create the conditions and the climate that will make it possible for children to devise the most efficient system for teaching themselves to read. Teaching is also public activity. It can be seen and observed.Learning to read involves all that each individual does to make sense of the worl
9、d of printed language. Almost all of it is private, for learning is an occupation of the mind, and that process is not open to public scrutiny.If teacher and learner roles are not interchangeable, what then can be done through teaching that will aid the child in the quest(探索)for knowledge? Smith has
10、 one principal rule for all teaching instructions. “Make learning to read easy, which means making reading a meaningful, enjoyable and frequent experience for children. ”When the roles of teacher and learner are seen for what they are, and when both teachers fulfill them appropriately, then much of
11、the pressure and feeling of failure for both is eliminated. Learning to read is made easier when teachers create an environment where children are given the opportunity to solve the problem of learning to read by reading.1.

B 解析:考查名词性从句。that 引导的名词性从句在句中作表语
16、,且 that 不充当句子的任何成分。其他几项不合题意。2. B 解析:考查名词性从句。句意:一些人认为是缺点的地方在其他人看来是一种优势。what 引导的名词性从句作句子的主语,且 what 在从句中作 regard 的宾语。其他几项不合题意。3. B 解析:考查名词性从句的引导词。引导一个名词性从句,并在从句中作 need 的宾语,只能用 what。句意:在特价促销开始之前,我把接下来的这个季节里孩子们所需要的东西列了个清单。4. C 解析:考查名词性从句。句意:我们应该尊重食物,想想那些得不到我们所拥有的这些的人,好好对待食物。此处考查宾语从句的引导词,从句中缺少宾语,故选 what 作
17、动词 have 的宾语。5. B 解析:考查同位语从句,解释说明 information 的具体内容,而从句的结构完整,引导词不作句子成分,也不表示实际的意思,故而选择 that。二、1. who 2. why 3. that 4. whether / if 5. whether / if6. that 7. whether / if 8. what 9. Why 10. how三、1. D 解析:提示:本文是一篇议论文,在对传统的阅读教学方式进行批判的同时,论述了作者自己阅读的教学观:阅读的教与学是两个完全不同的过程。依据文章第 1 段第 3 行“It is certainly not en
18、dless hours spent in activities about reading.”(教学生如何阅读当然不是带着学生花费大量的时间去一点一点地读) 。可以看出,作者认为现在教阅读的时间太多了,这当然是因为教知识而不教方法。所以选项 D 正确。2. B 解析:提示:依据文章第 2 段第 2 行开始的句子:“The function of teaching is to create the conditions and the climate that will make it possible for children to devise the most efficient syst
19、em for teaching themselves to read”(教学的任务是为学生找出自己最有效的自学阅读的方法创造条件和氛围) ,B 项符合上述意思,为正确答案。3. B 解析:提示:该题为猜测词义。inquiry“询问” 。observation“观察” 。control“控制” 。suspicion“怀疑” 。该词出现在第 3 段最后一句“process is not open to public scrutiny” ,考生可从该句的上文作出推测。最明显的提示出现在第 2 段最后一句“Teaching is also a public activity. It can be se
20、en and observed”所以,scrutiny 最可能的词义应该是 observation,故 B 项正确。4. A 解析:提示:依据文章第 4 段、第 5 段所提供的信息,特别是第 5 段第 3 行“Learning to read is made easier when teachers create an environment where children are given the opportunity to solve the problem of learning to read by reading”(当教师们创造了一种环境,使孩子们有机会自己通过阅读解决所遇到的问题时,学习阅读就变得容易多了) ,可以看出A 项与之最为相近。5. C 解析:提示:依据文章第 1 段第 4 行“reading cannot be taught directly and”说明阅读能力并不是通过教师教就能掌握的。教师应做的是给学生创造一个好的环境和条件,激发学生阅读的渴望,培养出良好的阅读习惯、方法,只有这样,才能掌握阅读技能,提高阅读水平。所以选项 C 正确。其他选项与文章讨论的范围不符。
