I refused to use a white stick and hated asking for help. After all, I was a teenage girl, and I couldnt bear people to look at me and think I was not like them. I must have been a terrible danger on the roads. ing across me wandering through the traffic, motorists probably would have to stop rapidly on their brakes. Apart from that, there were all sorts of disasters that used to occur on the way to and from work.One evening, I got off the bus about halfway home where I had to change buses, and as usual I ran into something. “Im awfully sorry,” I said and stepped forward only to run into it again. When it happened a third time, I realized I had been apologizing to a lamppost. This was just one of the stupid things that constantly happened to me. So I carried on and found the bus stop, which was a request stop, where the bus wouldnt stop unless passengers wanted to get on or off. No one else was there and I had to guess if the bus had arrived.Generally in this situation, because I hated showing I was blind by asking for help, I tried to guess at the sound. Sometimes I would stop a big lorry and stand there feeling stupid as it drove away. In the end, I usually managed to swallow my pride and ask someone at the stop for help.But at this particular evening no one joined me at the stop; it seemed that everyone had suddenly decided not to travel by bus. Of course I heard plenty of buses pass, or I thought I did. But because I had given up stopping them for fear of making a fool of myself, I let them all go by. I stood there alone for half an hour without stopping one. Then I gave up. I decided to walk on to the next stop.25. The girl refused to ask for help because she thought _.A. she might be recognized B. asking for help looked sillyC. she was normal and independent D. being found blind was embarrassing26. After the girl got off the bus that evening, she .A. hit a lamppost B. hit a person as usualC. began to run D. was caught by something27. At the request stop that evening, the girl .A. stopped a big lorry B. stopped the wrong busC. made no attempt to stop the bus D. was not noticed by other people28. What was the problem with guessing at the sound to stop a bus?A. Other vehicles also stopped thereB. It was unreliable for making judgments.C. More lorries than buses responded to the girl.D. It took too much time for the girl to catch the bus. CIn recent years, many Americans of both sexes and various ages have bee interested in improving their bodies. They have bee devoted to physical fitness. The need to exercise has almost bee natural with many people who have a strong desire to be more physically fit. By nature, Americans are enthusiastic and energetic about their hobbies and pastimes. They apply their energy to running. As a result, there are running clubs to join and many books and magazines to read about running.The desire to be physically fit is explained by a “passion” for good health. The high rate of heart attacks in the 1960s caused an increase on the part of the public in improving the human body. Middle-aged men especially suffered from heart attacks. Thus, they are one group strongly interested in more physical exercise. In fact, many doctors encourage their patients to bee more physically active, especially those who have sedentary jobs. It is interesting to note that the rate of heart attacks began to decrease in the 1970s and it is still decreasing. Physical fitness enjoys a favored role in the United States at present. It is a new “love” that Americans have valued very much. Will it last long? Only time will tell- or until another “new passion” es along.29. We can learn from the passage that _ . A. peoples interest in physical exercise has something to do with their health condition B. by nature, Americans are stronger and more energetic than others C. the love for physical exercise wont last long in American D. men have a stronger desire than women to take exercise30. In recent years, many Americans have bee interested in improving their bodies because _ . A. there are many running clubs to join B. they are eager for their hobbies and pastimes C. they have a strong desire to be more physically fit D. there are many books and magazines about running31. According to the passage, the underlined word in the last paragraph “sedentary” means _. A. challenging intelligence B. energy-taking C. needing much sitting D. sleeping-producing DChildren who spend more time reading with their parents have a greater chance of being better readers than those who dont. With help from their parents, children can learn techniques to improve their reading skills.“A lot of parents think after their child learns to read, they should stop reading to them,” Donna George said. “They are sadly mistaken.”George offers her services to parents at the Title I Learning Centers. She said reading aloud to children may be the most valuable thing parents can do. “It is better for children to hear things at a high level than where they are,” George said. “Parents are their childs first teacher.” Parents help their children build listening, phonics, prehension and vocabulary skills when they read aloud to them.Before parents can identify reading problems, they should escape the enemytelevision and limit the time their children spend watching television. George suggested not allowing kids to have a TV in their bedrooms, setting a schedule of when kids can watch or keeping a list of how many programs children watch. Louise Jones said that while her 14-year-old daughter and 10-year-old son enjoy reading, the television sometimes bees a distraction. So she tries to build the situation by suggesting books the entire family will enjoy reading together, like the Harry Potter series.Parents who do not read themselves should not count on their children being enthusiastic about it. If parents would read to their children at least 15 minutes every day, children would not have so many problems in school. It is the parents job to help build that desire in their children, and of course to know what kind of books to read is also important.32. According to George, reading aloud to children _.A. helps them correct mistakes B. is helpful to their readingC. is parents first duty to their children D. can get children out of televisions attraction33. The underlined word “distraction” (in Paragraph4) means something that can _. A. improve childrens reading skills B. help children form the right habit of reading C. make children interested in reading D. stop children concentrating on reading34. What is important according to the fourth paragraph? A. Reading skills. B. Reading speed. C. Reading materials. D. Reading environment.35. The best title for the passage would be _. A. Children Spend More Time Reading with Parents B. Parents Are Their Childs First Teacher C. How Parents Make Their Child a Better Reader D.
