eBooks still some way away from students
Twelve-year-old Tang Yin is one of the earliest students to test a digital textbook in China. The boy said he was a little  11  when he received the monochromatic(单色的) flat device in April, 2010, because he thought it should be a “   12   cool” laptop. But Tan still cherishes(珍爱) his new equipment like “protecting my  13 ,” said the fifth grader. After all, not every student has the opportunity to  14  the eBook, which is worth $294 (¥2,000 yuan), he said.
The 50 eBooks,   15  by Taiwan eBook manufacturer Chuanqi Photoelectric Technology in Yangzhou, Jiangsu province, enables one class at Yangzhou Sanyuanqiao Elementary School to be the   16  group of students in the Chinese mainland to replace their regular textbooks with   electronic ones. Out of 1000 students, Tang’s class was the lucky   17   .
“Our school could not   18  the project without the company’s donation,” said Yuan Shishan, vice-headmaster of the primary school.   19  the digital book is considered environmentally friendly, because it replaces paper books and saves money in the long run, the price is much higher than most Chinese   20  can afford. Also, some technical defects, the  21  of taking notes and monochromatic display, make the eBook fail to meet the expectations of students and teachers.
“There’s still a/an    22  way to go before the eBook really plays an important role in education,” said the headmaster.
According to Yuan, the annual average income of a   23   family in Yangzhou is about 20,000 to 30,000 yuan, and neither the parents nor the school can afford the 2,000 yuan  24 book.
The school doesn’t allow the students to take their eBooks to their homes. The devices are  25  after class, and are locked in the headmaster’s office.

举一反三
Last week, I was invited to a doctor’s meeting at the Ruth Hospital. In one of the rooms a patient, an old man, got up from his bed and moved slowly towards me. I could see that he hadn’t long to live, but he came up to me and placed his right foot close to mine on the floor.
“Frank!” I cried in surprise. He couldn’t answer, as I knew, but he tried to smile, all the time keeping his foot close to mine.
My thoughts raced back more than thirty years - to the dark days of 1941, when I was a student in London. The scene was an air-raid shelter (防空洞), in which I and about a hundred other people slept every night. Among them were Mrs West and her son Frank, who lived nearby. Sharing wartime problems, we got to know each other very well. Frank interested me because he was not normal. He had never been normal, ever since he was born. His mother told me he was 37 then, but he had less of a mind than a baby has. Mrs West, then about 75, was a strong, able woman, as she had to be, of course, because Frank depended on her completely. He needed all the attention of a baby.
One night a policeman came into our shelter and told Mrs West that her house had been all destroyed. That wasn’t quite true, because the Wests went on living there for quite some time. But they certainly lost nearly everything they owned.
When that kind of thing happened, the rest of us helped the unlucky ones. So before we separated that morning, I stood beside Frank and measured my right foot against his.
They were about the same size. That night, then, I took a spare pair of shoes to the shelter for Frank. As soon as he saw me, he came running - and paced his right foot against mine. After that, he always greeted me in the same way.
小题1: How did the writer know that the patient was Frank?
A.He was told that Frank was in the hospital.B.He was invited to study Frank’s illness.
C.Frank’s name was written on the door.D.Frank greeted him in a special way.
小题2: When and where did the writer first meet Frank?
A.In Mrs West’s house in 1941.
B.In an air-raid shelter during the war.
C.At the Ruth Hospital about ten years ago.
D.In London after he Wests’ house was destroyed.
小题3: The unlucky ones mentioned by the doctor were ______.
A.those who suffered from illnessB.those who slept in the air-raid shelter
C.those who were killed during the warD.those whose homes were destroyed in air-raids
小题4:The writer placed his foot against Frank’s before he left the shelter ______.
A.to be friendly towards Frank
B.to see if Frank’s feet were normal
C.to find out if Frank could put on his shoes
D.to teach Frank to greet people in a special way

The nine-year-old boy was attracted by the sight of my father practicing martial arts the moment he walked into the gym. As my father threw speedy punches(出拳) into the 36 bag-yet was hardly able to move it-the boy walked slowly toward him.
My father, 37 of the boy’s stare, jammed a couple of sharp sidekicks into the bag to end his 38 . He picked up his towel, sat down on a nearby bench, and began 39 his face and hands.
“Hey, mister,” said the boy. My father 40 at the boy, bringing the towel down off his face and putting it around to the back of his neck. “Do you know karate or 41?” the boy asked.
“Actually, I know Tae Kwon Do,” my father answered.
“Cool. What 42 are you?”
“Black belt,” my father said. “You like martial arts?”
“Yeah, and I want to know if you can show me a 43!”said the kid. “Can you show me how to 44 someone?”
My father 45 for a moment before he said, “Come here.” and 46 with his hand for the boy to come 47. His expression was serious.

The boy inched forward again, 53. My father took his hand and began to shake it 54, as if the two of them had been old friends 55 each other.
“You know, kid,” my father said, “you’ll solve more problems with this move than with any other.

“A lot of learning comes through play,” says Mardy McGarry, 52, who has been a special education teacher for 28 years. But her students were too often left out. She had seen the wood chips and sand of traditional playgrounds stop wheelchairs dead in their tracks. When she wanted to build a playground for children with special needs,she knew it wouldn’t take long to develop interest in it around the small fishing village. But she never expected that 2,800 people — a third of the town—would all be willing to make a great effort to bring her vision to life.
McGarry started doing some research into play equipment and contacting design companies and she also found a piece of land available. When the city council(市议会) agreed to set aside an area for a playground, she also asked physical and professional therapists(治疗专家) for their investment. And she turned to her friend, Sue, for help. “Neither of us is good at maths, which is why $450,000 didn’t sound like a lot of money,” McGarry says of the initial estimate.
Her Kiwanis Club came through with $7,000,and that’s when the grassroots movement really got started. One woman gave $25,000 and had her company match it. Soon, smaller businesses were joining in. There was a silent effort to collect money. The local Pieper Family Foundation offered to donate half of the remaining $170,000. All McGarry needed was 500 volunteers to work six 12-hour days.
On September 16, 2008, the first day of construction, they came. Two women heard about the project on the way to work and took the day off to help. A couple in their 80s operated their tractors. Ten-year-olds cleared up the mess. “None of them was paid. It was truly an amazing week,” says McGarry. Only three building managers were paid. Volunteers with “building experience” became coordinators(协调人); those who could operate power tools formed a separate group. One team served meals donated from local restaurants and churches, and another organized activities for the children of volunteers.
Today, Possibility Playground is one of the most popular destinations in Ozaukee County. All children, including the ones with special needs, play shoulder to shoulder. “Some playgrounds have special equipment in a different section. Here, you see all the kids in the same playground, all having fun.”
It’s exactly what McGarry imagined. “People used to ask, ‘Why do you want to build a playground just for children with disabilities?” She says, “It’s only when you build a playground for children with disabilities that you build one for all children.”
小题1: It didn’t occur to Mardy McGarry that __________.
A.her plan would soon draw the interest of people in the small village
B.so many people would volunteer to help her realize her dream
C.she would meet with so many difficulties in raising funds
D.the playground would be the most popular destination in Ozaukee County
小题2:We can learn from the fourth paragraph that __________.
A.the playground was finished in September 2008
B.everything was well prepared, apart from the volunteers
C.everyone worked unpaid, except for three building managers
D.the playground is so popular that it is overcrowded all the time
小题3:It can be inferred from the text that __________.
A.Mardy McGarry is a famous architect in the small town
B.Sue was forced to join in the project because of her son
C.people always ignore the real needs of disabled children
D.Mardy McGarry’s vision has been successfully accomplished at last
小题4:What would be the best title for this text?
A.Mardy McGarry: A Woman with Great Determination.
B.Cooperation: The Greatest Power in Overcoming Any Difficulty.
C.Show Real Concern for Poor Disabled Children.
D.Make it Matter to Build a Playground for Disabled Children.
