I.閱讀理解（8分）

• 1．Little boys don't like reading any more and even little girls don't enjoy it as much as they once did：This is the accepted wisdom inside the book industry-and in many British families，too.Parents and booksellers tend to blame the growing appeal of online entertainment and hand-held video games，but research from the US is challenging these assumptions，
     Michael J.Normis，an American publishing expert，will release findings in the monthly Book Publishing Report which show that，despite the best intentions，it is well-meaning mothers and fathers who often stop their sons and daughters from picking up the reading habit.
     "Parents have too much of a role in deciding habit.jye.ai books their children are going to read，" said Norris. "It is turning children off."
     The results of a number of surveys Norris has carried out with hundreds of American booksellers over the past year have provided the basis for a series of tips for parents designed to help children find enjoyment in books.
     One of his tips is to make sure children talk directly to a librarian or a bookseller，while parents stand well back.Parents should allow children to choose their own reading material. "Even if a mother or a father is just standing with the child when the bookseller asks them what they like to read，we have found that the child will give an answer they think their parent wants to hear.It will not be the same answer they would give alone，" said Norris.
     Norris' another tip for parents is that they do not attempt to limit books to one age range. "What we have found is that parents should not way whether a title looks too young or too old for a child.If a book has caught their attention，then let them take it."
     "Children，" added Norris，"often enjoy reading books that are easy for them to understand. " "My father made me read The Hunt for Red October by Tom Clancy when I was much too young and I have never read another Clancy since，" said Norris.

  A．Children's interest in hand-held games.

V.讀后續(xù)寫（17分）

• 5．閱讀下面材料，根據(jù)其內(nèi)容和所給段落開頭語續(xù)寫兩段，使之構(gòu)成一篇完整的短文。
      For years I had a recurring（反復出現(xiàn)的）dream.I was a little girl again，rushing about，trying to get ready for school.
      "Hurry up!You'll be late for school，" my mother called to me.
      "I am hurrying，Mum!What did I do with my books？"
      Deep inside I knew where the dream came from.It was about some unfinished business in my life.As a kid，I loved everything about school.I loved books，teachers，tests and homework.Most of all，I longed to someday march down the aisle（通道）to receive my diploma（畢業(yè)文憑）.That seemed more appealing even than getting married.
      But at 15，I had to drop out because my parents couldn't afford my tuition.My hope of getting a diploma was dead，or so I thought.Pretty soon，I married and had three children，and I thought："There goes my diploma."
      Even so，I wanted my children to be educated.But Linda，our youngest child，had juvenile arthritis （幼年型關節(jié)炎） in her hands and knees，which made it impossible for her to function in a normal classroom.I felt really sorry for her and I didn't want her to live her life with regret.I didn't give up hope of her being back to school in some ways.
      One day，I saw an ad in the newspaper for evening courses. "That's the answer，" I said to myself.Linda
  always feels better in the evening，so I'll just let her sign up for night school.
      Linda was busy filling out enrolment（入學）forms when the secretary said："Mrs Schantz，why don't you come back to school？"
      I laughed： "There's no way!I'm 55!" But he persisted，and before I knew what I had done，I was enrolled for classes in English and crafts. "This is only an experiment，" I warned him，but he just smiled.So，I told myself to try for just a semester and to see if it would work.Anyway，my dream was still there in my heart.
  注意：續(xù)寫詞數(shù)應為150左右。
      It was exciting to go to school again but it was no game.__________.
      Linda and I helped each other through the difficult times.__________.
