Ⅰ。阅读理解
They say a cat has nine lives,and I think that possible since I am now living my third life and I’m not even a cat.My father died when I was 15,and we had a hard struggle to make a living。And my mother,who was seriously ill in her last years,died while still in her 60s.My sister married soon after,and I followed her example within the year.
This was when I began to enjoy my first life.I was very happy,in excellent health。I had a good job in San Jose and a beautiful home up the peninsula(半岛) in San Carlos。Life was a pleasant dream。Then the dream ended。I became afflicted(使苦恼) with a slowly progressive disease of the motor nerves,affecting first my right arm and leg,and then my other side.Thus began my second life.。。
In spite of my disease I still drove to and from work each day,with the aid of special equipment installed in my car。And I managed to keep my health and optimism,to a degree,because of 14 steps.Crazy?Not at all。Our home was an affair with 14 steps leading up from the garage to the kitchen door。Those steps were a standard measure of life.They were my yardstick,my challenge to continue living.I felt that if the day arrived when I was unable to lift one foot up one step and then drag the other painfully after it—repeating the process 14 times,I would be through—I could then admit defeat and lie down and die.
Then on a dark night in August,1971,I began my third life。It was raining when I started home that night;strong winds and slashing rain beat down on the car as I drove slowly down one of the lesstravelled roads。Suddenly the steering wheel jerked(猝然一动)。In the same instant I heard the bang of a blowout.It was impossible for me to change that tire!Utterly impossible!
I started the engine and thumped slowly along until I came to the dirt road,where I turned in and where I found lighted windows welcomed me to a house and pulled into the driveway and honked the horn.
The door opened and a little girl stood there.When she knew what happened to me,she went into the house and a moment later came out,followed by a man who called a cheerful greeting。I sat there comfortable and dry,and felt a bit sorry for the man and the little girl working so hard in the storm.
About an hour later,the man’s voice was heard,“This is a bad night for car trouble,but you’re all set now.”“Thanks,” I said,“How much do I owe you?\" He shook his head,“Nothing。Cynthia told me you were a cripple。Glad to be of help。I know you’d do the same for me.There's no charge,friend。\" I held out a
five.dollar bill,“No!I like to pay my way.” He made no effort to take it and the little girl stepped closer to the window and said quietly,“Grandpa can’t see it。”
1。“A cat has nine lives\" here means “ ”。
A。a cat can live nine times longer than any other animal B。a cat can die ninth
C。a lucky man can not die easily D。the author will live nine times
2。What do you think of the man who helped change the tire? A。Old,warm.hearted but pitiable。 B。Blind,but warm。hearted and happy。
C.A blind old man that has nothing to do every day。 D.A poor old man that is always ready to help others.
3。How do you understand the underlined sentence “I followed her example within the year”?
A。He listened to his sister carefully.
B。Mother told him that he must get the agreement from his sister for whatever he would do.
C.His sister got married。He,too.
D。His sister was a great woman.He must learn from her。 Ⅱ.任务型阅读
The most common use of intelligence test scores is to predict degree of academic success.Such scores are used in some communities as bases for admitting able children to schools at ages younger than normal,and they are very generally used to determine admissions to schools beyond public secondary school。Another common
use in elementary schools involves comparing such scores with performances in various subjects to identify children who are working below capacity.
The greatest problem in using intelligence tests for the purpose of prediction is that no dependable criterion of their accuracy exists.The ideal
criteria would be objective and reliable achievement tests following instructions in each subject,but there are few such tests,especially at the college level。Studies have shown that correlations(相关性) between intelligence tests and achievement tests in various subjects through secondary school range roughly from 0.5 to 0。8.Such correlations are fairly high,but they do not suggest anywhere near complete agreement.
At the college level there are two major tests used as criteria of admission
。

the

the
College
Entrance
Examination,constructed by the Educational Testing Service authorized by the College Entrance Examination Board。These tests are returned to the Educational Testing Service for scoring,and the results are then made available to the various colleges authorized by the students to receive them。The second test of this type is the American College Test,which operates in essentially the same fashion.
Both tests constitute(组成) measures of certain skills,abilities,and knowledge that have been found to be related to success in college。Their correlations with academic success are limited for three outstanding reasons。First,measures of achievement in college are themselves perhaps no more reliable than those in elementary and secondary schools.Second,intellectual factors do not alone determine academic success,especially at the college level。Many students drop out of schools because they are inadequately motivated or because they dislike the instructional programme。Third,correlations are lowered because the use of such tests for denying admission to some students means that the range of scores for those admitted is restricted,and such restrictions tend to reduce correlations.
