(2015·天津，C)One day when I was 12，my mother gave me an order：I was to walk to the public library，and borrow at least one book for the summer.This was one more weapon for her to defeat my strange problem—inability to read.In the library，I found my way into the “Children's Room.” I sat down on the floor and pulled a few books off the shelf at random.The cover of a book caught my eye.It presented a picture of a beagle.I had recently had a beagle，the first and only animal companion I ever had as a child.He was my secret sharer，but one morning，he was gone，given away to someone who had the space and the money to care for him.I never forgot my beagle.There on the book's cover was a beagle which looked identical(相同的) to my dog.I ran my fingers over the picture of the dog on the cover.My eyes ran across the title，Amos，the Beagle w ith a Plan.Unknowingly，I had read the title.Without opening the book，I borrowed it from the library for the summer.Under the shade of a bush，I started to read about Amos.I read very，very slowly with difficulty.Though pages were turned slowly，I got the main idea of the story about a dog who，like mine，had been separated from his family and who finally found his way back home.That dog was my dog，and I was the little boy in the book.At the end of the story，my mind continued the final scene of reunion，on and on，until my own lost dog and I were，in my mind，running together.My mother's call returned me to the real world.I suddenly realized something：I had read a book，and I had loved reading that book.Everyone knew I could not read.But I had read it.Books could be incredibly wonderful and I was going to read them.I never told my mother about my “miraculous”(奇迹般的) experience that summer，but she saw a slow but remarkable improvement in my classroom performance during the next year.And years later，she was proud that her son had readthousands of books，was awarded a PhD in literature，and authored his own books，articles，poetry and fiction.The power of the words has held.【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文，作者通过自己成功的经历来说明读书可以矫正阅读困难的毛病。

(2014·浙江，B)Here is some must－know information from a handbook on how people behave in doing business in some countries.In BrazilBrazilians are warm and friendly.They often stand close when talking and it is common for them to touch the person on the shoulder.People often greet each other (particularly women) with light cheek kisses.Schedules tend to be flexible，with business meetings sometimes starting later than planned.But to be safe，be on time.Meals can stretch for hours—there’s no such thing as rushing a meal in Brazil.Lunches also can start in the mid to late afternoon.Brazilians are social，preferring face－to－face communication over emails or phone calls.In SingaporeSingaporeans shake hands when they meet and often also greet each other with a small，polite bow.Business cards should be offered and received with two hands.Arriving late is considered disrespectful.So be on time.Efficiency(效率) is the goal，so meetings and dealings often are fast－paced.Singaporeans are direct in their discussions，even when the subject is about money.Rank is important and authority is respected.This determines how people interact in meetings.For example，people avoid disagreeing outright with someone of a higher rank.In the United Arab EmiratesIn the UAE，status is important，so the most senior or oldest should be greeted first with their titles.The handshake seems to be longer than elsewhere.So do not pull away from the handshake.Women should cover themselves when it comes to dress.Men also tend to be covered from neck to elbows(肘部) and down to the knees.People do not avoid entertaining in their homes，but they also hold business meals at restaurants.Touching or passing food or eating with your left hand is to be avoided.When meetings are one－to－one，if your host offers you coffee，you should refuse.It might seem odd，but it is a cultural tradition.Coffee should only be accepted if it is already set out or presented.In SwitzerlandThe Swiss tend to be formal and address each other by last name.They also arerespectful of private lives.You should be careful not to ask about personal topics.Punctuality (守时) is vital，something that comes from a deep respect for others’ time.Arrive at any meeting or event a few minutes early to be safe.They also have clear structure in their companies.Higher－ups make the final decisions，even if others might disagree.Neat，clean dress is expected.The Swiss follow formal table manners.They also keep their hands visible at the table and their elbows off the table.It is polite to finish the food on your plate.【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。

And there is nothing mysterious about the mighty forces.They are potential powers we possess energy, skill, sound judgment creative ideas— even physical strength greater than most of us realize.Admittedly , those mighty forces are spiritual ones.But they are more important than physicalones.A college classmate of mine, Tim , was an excellent football player, even though he weighedmuch less than the average player."In one game I suddenly found myself confronting a huge player,who had nothing but me between him and our goal line , " said Tim. “I was so frightened that Iclosed my eyes and desperately threw myself at that guy like a bullet仟弹）一and stopped him cold.Boldness— a willingness to extend yourself to the extreme — is not one that can be acquired overnight.But it can be taught to children and developed in adults.Confidence builds up.Surely there will be setbacks性折）and disappointments in life ； boldness in itself is no guarantee of success.But the person who tries to do something and fails is a lot better off than the person who tries to do nothing and succeeds.So, always try to live a little bit beyond your abilities—and you'll find your abilities are greater than you ever dreamed.【语篇解读】本文是一篇议论文。

(2015·四川，D)Their cheery song brightens many a winter's day.But robins are in danger of wearing themselves out by singing too much.Robins are singing all night—as well as during the day，British-based researchers say.David Dominoni，of Glasgow University，said that light from street lamps，takeaway signs and homes is affecting the birds' biological clocks，leading to them being wide awake when they should be asleep.Dr Dominoni，who is putting cameras inside nesting boxes to track sleeping patterns，said lack of sleep could put the birds' health at risk.His study shows that when robins are exposed to light at night in the lab，it leads to some genes being active at the wrong time of day.And the more birds are exposed to light，the more active they are at night.He told people at a conference，“There have been a couple of studies suggesting they are increasing their song output at night and during the day they are still singing.Singing is a costly behaviour and it takes energy.So by increasing their song output，there might be some costs of energy.”And it is not just robins that are being kept awake by artificial light.Blackbirds and seagulls are also being more nocturnal.Dr Dominoni said，“In Glasgow where I live，gulls are a serious problem.I have people coming to me saying ‘You are the bird expert.Can you help us kill these gulls？’．During the breeding(繁殖) season，between April and June，they are very active at night and very noisy and people can't sleep.”Although Dr Dominoni has only studied light pollution，other research concluded that robins living in noisy cities have started to sing at night to make themselves heard over loud noise.However，some birds thrive(兴旺) in noisy environments.A study from California Polytechnic State University found more hummingbirds in areas with heavy industrial machinery.It is thought that they are capitalising on their predators(天敌) fleeing to quieter areas.【语篇解读】本文主要介绍了一项调查研究的结果，由于人类制造的光线问题，越来越多的鸟类如知更鸟在晚上也会唱歌，这极大地影响了鸟的健康。

(2015·广东，D)It was once common to regard Britain as a society with class distinction.Each class had unique characteristics.In recent years，many writers have begun to speak of the ‘decline of class’ and ‘classless society’ in Britain.And in modern day consumer society everyone is considered to be middle class.But pronouncing the death of class is too early.A recent wide-ranging study of public opinion found 90 percent of people still placing themselves in a particular class；73 percent agreed that class was still a vital part of British society；and 52 percent thought there were still sharp class differences.Thus，class may not be culturally and politically obvious，yet it remains an important part of British society.Britain seems to have a love of stratification.One unchanging aspect of a British person's class position is accent.The words a person speaks tell her or his class.A study of British accents during the 1970s found that a voice sounding like a BBC newsreader was viewed as the most attractive voice.Most people said this accent sounded ‘educated’ and ‘soft’．The accents placed at the bottom in this study，on the other hand，were regional(地区的)city accents.These accents were seen as ‘common’ and ‘ugly’．However，a similar study of British accents in the US turned these results upside down and placed some regional accents as the most attractive and BBC English as the least.This suggests that British attitudes towards accent have deep roots and are based on class prejudice.In recent years，however，young upper middle-class people in London，have begun to adopt some regional accents，in order to hide their class origins.This is an indication of class becoming unnoticed.However，the 1995 pop song ‘Common People’ puts forward the view that though a middleclass person may ‘want to live like common people’ they can never appr eciate the reality of a working-class life.【语篇解读】作者在文章中给我们介绍了两项调查，通过两项调查的结果我们可以看到，在英国社会里，阶级划分没有消失，它是英国社会重要的一部分。
