He visited many famous teachers and learned music, history, poetry and sports.Later, he became a teacher and started the first public school in Chinese history.

A child learns to walk by practicing until he no longer has to think about how to put one foot in front of the other. An excellent sportsman practices until he can play quickly, correctly and without thinking. Educators call it automaticity (自动性). A child learns to read by sounding out the letters and finding the meaning of the words. With practice, he stumbles less and less, reading by the phrase. With automaticity, he doesnt have to think about the meaning of words, so he can give all his attention to the meaning of the text.It can begin as early as the first grade. In a recent study of children in Illinois schools, Alan Rossman of Northwestern University found that automatic readers in the first grade not only read almost three times as fast as the others, but also got better results in exams.According to Rossman, the key to automaticity is the amount(数量)of time a child spends reading, not his IQ. Any child who spends at least 3.5 to 4 hours a week reading books, magazines or newspapers will probably reach automaticity. It can happen if a child turns off TV just one night for reading at home. You can test yourself by reading something new which is suitable for your level. If you read aloud with expression, with a sense of the meaning of the sentences, you probably are an automatic reader. If you read brokenly, one word at a time, without expression or meaning, you need more practice.（1）Reading is the key to school success means that reading_.

A . 结结巴巴地读B . 全神贯注地读C . 心不在焉地读D . 声情并茂地读（4）The best title for the passage is _. A . IQ is the Key to the AutomaticityB . TV is Bad for Childrens ReadingC . Automaticity Depends on PracticeD . Automatic Readers Will Be Successful4. （10分）阅读理解 Dear mom,Today, Im writing to tell you something really special because it is difficult for me to talk to you face to face.I know you work very hard and feel tired every day.

Theyre cool because they have a cool car, or theyre better at the newest Xbox game. Lots of people say that buying new things makes them happy. They like having new, pretty, impressive things. The problem is that people dont stay happy, and the feeling you get when you buy something new disappears. For example, theres a new iPhone. You stop liking your old car. Your friend has Beats in a different color and theyre so much nicer! Things get old and outdated. And someone else always has something better. So, what can you buy and stay happy with? A research suggests that the best thing to spend your extra(额外的)money on is doing things like traveling, learning to cook, speaking a language, skiing or surfing. What about going to the theater, eating at a Michelin star restaurant or climbing a mountain?In the long term(从长远看), people are happier with money they spend on activities than on things. You dont remember what shoes you wore, but you remember running the marathon! When you do new things or things you enjoy, you get life experience and memories. You can share them with people. Even if you dont enjoy the experience, you can learn something and often a little while later you see the good sides of it. At least, its a story to tell-maybe even a funny one.

I anxiously brought it home and immediately took a trip out to the chicken house to deliver(递送) it. I knew the girls would welcome the treat!My chickens have their regular gravity-type feeder for their grain(谷物), and I have a large plastic dog dish that I use for those special treats.I emptied the bag of greens into the dog dish and stood back, as I usually do, to watch for a minute. I began to notice that the chickens were eating the green lettuce（莴苣）but were leaving the red leaves. I though it must be mistaken, but I didnt have time to find out for sure right then.When I went back a short time later, the dish was empty except for the red leaves. The chickens didnt eat them with the red leaves. It took several hours, but they finally did eat it. I guess if they had their druthers(偏爱), theyd choose for green leaves only.
