But my favorite line es to mind whenever I see a mom reading to her child: “Richer than I you will never be I had a mother who read to me.” Certainly, by that measure, Im a wealthy person, as are my children.Decades ago, educators cited (引证) reading as the most fundamental skill children acquire, and they promoted the idea that reading aloud to children is critically important. Early childhood teachers can quickly spot the students who are read to daily, as they are already on their way to being good future readers.And now pediatricians (儿科医生) are also speaking of the importance of reading to children particularly in the first three years of their lives. In a new policy announcement, the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) is urging its physician members to tell parents that its critical to read, speak and sing to children at the very beginning of their young lives, because thats how they acquire vocabulary and other important skills that may determine later school success.Doctors might also talk to parents about how regular reading is essential to physical development. Existing links among brain cells are strengthened. New cells are formed. Reading, as it turns out, is brain food! Maybe its even fair to say that no child is pletely healthy if he or she has not held a book or heard a story.In my experience, many parents and grandparents even the wealthy and welleducated are surprised to hear the research and learn that its never too soon to read to babies. The AAP and others point out that lowine children are of particular concern. Studies show that more affluent (富裕的) children hear millions more words spoken, read, or sung than do children from lowine homes. This “word gap” gives lowine children a clear academic disadvantage, which may be apparent as early as 18 months. One easy way to close that word gap is to expose babies to books.语篇解读：本文是一篇议论文。文章论述了家长尽早给孩子读书的重要性。4What makes children rich according to the mentioned old poem?AOwning tons of books.BStudying hard at school.CListening to their moms read.DAppreciating poems at an early age.解析：选C细节理解题。由第一段中的“my favorite line es to mind whenever I see a mom reading to her child .

As someone who grew up in a city, I am acutely aware of this and sometimes find myself waiting for evidence of civilization beyond the walls of my house as I lie in bed. Every so often I receive it the passing rumble (隆隆声) of the freight train (货运列车)The railroad tracks lie not 500 feet from my front door. I drive or walk over them every day. Seeing the train by day is always a treat, but hearing it in the dead of night is forting. Long before it reaches the crossing I can sense its approach. Once past the crossing, the train clanks (发出叮当声) down the line toward Bangor and falls silent, and then I gradually fall asleep.There are people who wrinkle their noses at the idea of living near a freight railway, as if it were unseemly. Now and then I am asked if the noise bothers me. Bothers? The only time I was bothered was a few months ago when the train stopped running. I walked down to the rails and stared to the left and right, like a parent anxious about an overdue child. What on earth had bee of my train?I asked around town, but nobody knew what happened. I took my consternation to bed with me on that particularly cold night, and I determined to call the railway the next morning to ask about its wellbeing. But before I called I heard the train ing. You might wonder how such loud noise could put me to sleep. But thats exactly what it did.I know this is a wild fantasy, but Ive been trying to find a legal way of getting a ride on the freight train. I am mindful of something the great travel writer Paul Theroux said: “I have seldom heard a train go by and not wished I was on it.”语篇解读：本文是一篇记叙文。作者讲述了自己住在货运列车线路附近的经历。8Which can best describe rural Maine on winter nights?AIt is very quiet.BIt is rather busy.CIt is quite exciting.
