But, as every parent and teacher also knows, learning spelling can be difficult for children in the early stages. The problem with English spelling is that the letters do not correspond to (与相对应) speech sounds.Good spelling skills are an important part of being able to read and write to a reasonable standard. Reading, writing and spelling are important in the first place because they all help to develop an effective level of literacy (识字). Without this, school coursework would not be pleted satisfactorily and endofyear exams would be failed. Getting good grades in exams, especially towards the end of a persons school life is extremely important if they are looking to go on to college or university before entering the employment market.Learning to spell is important because being able to spell correctly adds so much to your skills and abilities, especially when it es to finding a college or university place, or entering the job market for the first time. Writing a decent CV (简历) and pleting the application correctly is vital in the effort to make a good impression. It was reported recently that employers rejected the vast majority of 1,000 job applications submitted by graduates simply because of bad spelling.Could our use of technology be the reason for bad spelling? Although not proven, there have been concerns in recent years that the rise of text messaging and “chatspeak” used in social media could be leading to a reduction in literacy, as abbreviations (缩写) bee monly used by children. Opinions differ on this possibility. Some research suggests that this may not necessarily be true, but other studies have shown that in some cases it is a cause for concern.But the end of school education may be too late. Obviously, the main time for learning is during childhood when most people can achieve a reasonable level of spelling to help their overall literacy. But it is perhaps surprising that many adults have extremely poor spelling and struggle with mon words such as embarrass, occasion and restaurant.语篇解读：本文是一篇议论文。文章主要讨论了为什么学习拼写很重要。4Childrens difficulty in learning spelling lies in the fact that _.Athey dont know how to readBthe rules are difficult to masterCmany words are long and plexDthe letters dont match speech sounds解析：选D细节理解题。由第一段中的“The problem with English spelling is that the letters do not correspond to (与相对应) speech sounds.”可知，英语拼写的困难在于字母与发音不一致。5The underlined word “decent” in Paragraph 3 can best be replaced by “_”Aquick BgoodqualityCrecent Dwellmeaning解析：选B词义猜测题。由画线词后的“pleting the application correctly”和“make a good impression”以及第三段最后一句可推断，要在求职时留下好印象必须要有一份得体的、相当不错的简历。由此可知，decent意为“相当不错的”，故选B。6We may conclude from Paragraph 4 that _.Athe use of text messaging leads to good spellingB“chatspeak” helps children develop their literacyCthe use of technology has caused increasing concernDmon use of abbreviations shows childrens literacy level解析：选C推理判断题。由倒数第二段中的“there have been concerns in recent years”和“other studies have shown that in some cases it is a cause for concern”可知，技术的使用可能会导致人们拼写能力下降，这已经引起了人们的关注和担心。7What would be the best title for the text?AWhy is learning to spell important?BWhy do many children have poor spelling?CWhen should children start to learn spelling?DHow should children develop their spelling skills?解析：选A标题归纳题。由第一段中的“being able to spell properly is a fundamental skill”和第二段中的“Good spelling skills are an important part of being able to read and write”以及第三段中的“Learning to spell is important”可知，本文主要讨论了学习拼写的重要性，故A项为最佳标题。.阅读七选五4 supersimple secrets to living longer, healthier and happierJournalist Dan Buettner has spent over a decade studying the healthiest, longestliving people around the world, from residents of the Japanese island of Okinawa to the Greek island of Ikaria socalled “Blue Zones”Now, hes letting the rest of us in on their secrets in his new book, The Blue Zones Solution: Eating and Living Like the Worlds Healthiest People.
