For many people today， reading is no longer relaxation。 To keep up their work they must read letters， reports， trade publications， interoffice communications, not to mention newspapers and magazines： a never-ending flood of words. In getting a job or advancing in one, the ability to read and comprehend quickly can mean the difference between success and failure。 Yet the unfortunate fact is that most of us are poor readers。 Most of us develop poor reading habits at an early age, and never get over them。 The main problem lies in language itself – words。 Single words have little meaning until they are combined into phrases, sentences and paragraphs。 Unfortunately, however， the untrained reader does not read groups of words. He reads one word at a time， often regressing to reread words or passages. Regression， or looking back over what you have just read, is a common bad habit in reading。 Another habit which slows down the speed of reading is vocalization – sounding each word either orally or mentally as one reads。
To overcome these bad habits， some reading clinics use a device called accelerator （加速器）， which moves a bar down the page at a predetermined speed. The bar is set at a slightly faster rate than the reader finds comfortable， in order to "stretch” him。 The accelerator forces the reader to read fast， making word—by-word reading， regression and vocalization virtually impossible。 At first, comprehension is sacrificed for speed. But when you learn to read ideas， you will not only read faster， but your comprehension will improve。 Many people have found their reading skills improved a lot after some training。

A. news

Most people can't read and comprehend quickly mainly because ________。

A。 they don’t read groups of words

B。 they don’t like to be trained in reading skills

C. they don’t realize they have poor reading habits

D。 they don't understand words when put together

3。
The following are all bad reading habits EXCEPT ________.

A。 regression

B。 reading for ideas only

C. vocalization

D. word—by—word reading

4。
How does an accelerator help people to read？

A。 It helps people read at a comfortable speed.

B. It makes people stretch their eyes when reading.

C. It forces people to overcome bad reading habits。

D。 It lets people look back over what they have just read。

5。
What does ”At first， comprehension is sacrificed for speed" （Para. 2， Sentence 4） mean？

A。 The reader reads fast， but he understands everything he reads.

B. The reader reads slowly and he understands everything he reads。

C. The reader reads fast without understanding everything he reads.

D。 The reader reads slowly， but he doesn't understand everything he reads。
Questions 6 to 10 are based on the same passage or dialog。
Everybody lies。 It may only be ”white lies"， but everyone tells lies or "omits the truth” sometimes。 People start lying at around age 4 to 5 when children gain an awareness of the use and power of language. This first lying is not ill-natured， but rather to find out， or test， what can be controlled in a child's environment。 Eventually children begin to use lying to get out of trouble or get something they want。 White lies， those told to protect someone’s feelings， are not a big deal at all. The person, however, who seems to feel forced to lie about both small and large stuff, has a problem。 They lie to protect themselves, look good， gain financially or socially and avoid punishment。 A much more troubling group is those who lie a lot， and knowingly， for personal gain. Lying often gets worse with the passage of time。 When you get away with a lie， it often forces you to continue your lies。
Why do we dislike liars so much？ It's a matter of trust。 When people lie， they have broken a bond – an unspoken agreement to treat others as we would like to be treated. Serious lying often makes it impossible for us to trust another person again。 Because the issue (问题） of trust is at risk, coming clean about the lie as soon as possible is the best way to mend fences. If the truth only comes out once it is forced， repair of trust is far less likely. As a parent， the most important message you can send to your children about lying is that you always – always – want them to come clean with you. No matter how small a lie they have told， remind them that you would always rather hear the truth, no matter how bad it is， than be cheated. Tell them there is really nothing better in your relationship than your trust of each other。

D. If lies are not found out， probably the liar will continue to lie。

Questions 11 to 15 are based on the same passage or dialog。
School buildings themselves can show liberal （开明的) or conservative views about what should go on in a classroom。 The earliest schools had separate classrooms for different grades. The rooms were laid out formally， with pupils’ desks fastened to the floor in straight rows facing the teacher’s desk. Clearly， such schools reflected a teacher-and—subject—centered view of education.
Schools of the next generation had more open space, and most had movable desks。 They also often provided special rooms or areas for science， art， music， and physical education。 There were still separate rooms for different grade levels, however， and the desks still were likely to be formally arranged. That is， the schoolroom was still largely designed to carry out the old—school program, which involved grade levels， uniform time blocks, and study of subject matters。 Newer subjects, not newer teaching methods, accounted for most of what was new in school design。
The first school buildings constructed to encourage liberal teaching methods appeared in the mid—1950s. Folding interior (内部的） walls permitted the flexible use of space to encourage large—group， small—group， or individual instruction. Some provided carrels for individual study， areas for team teaching， and centers for programmed instruction。
In the newest buildings called open schools， the use of space is even more flexible。 Areas within the buildings can be readily expanded for program changes， and used for many kinds of functions。 One should remember, though, the physical layout (布局） of a school cannot decide whether it has the conservative or liberal teaching practices。 What determines whether the classroom is liberal or conservative is the spirit and attitude of the teacher.

A。 School buildings reflect the improvement in education quality.

Questions 1 to 5 are based on the same passage or dialog.
What are baseball fans？ Baseball fans wear their official team T-shirts and jackets everywhere， sometimes even to work. Then， whenever the team offers a free item， the fans rush to get it. In addition, baseball fans cover the walls of their rooms with their favorite players’ pictures。 When they go to a game， which they do as often as possible, the true baseball fans put on their team colors， grab their team flags， pin on their team buttons。 At the game， these fans form a section， constantly encouraging their favorite players and enthusiastically responding to every cheer flashed on the electronic scoreboard。
Baseball fans, in addition to behaving crazily, are also extremely interested in things of small importance. Every day， they turn to the sports page of the newspaper and study last night’s statistics。 Their bookshelves are full of books and newspapers with information of
