四、阅读理解
A
If you called someone a scientist in the early eighteenth century they would have thought of someone who improved on practical designs. Benjamin Franklin was such a scientist. He liked asking questions and then trying to find out the answers. For example, he thought that storms moved in the opposite direction to the winds that went with them. He suggested that it would be possible to mark the path of a storm on a map. To prove it he rode into a storm and then followed it down the road. Today people do not chase storms but they do mark their journeys down on maps
Since Benjamin Franklin spent so much time sailing from America to Europe, he became very interested in sea currents. In November, 1783, when he was in Paris, he happened to watch the first hot air balloon flight.

One day Haydn and Mozart had a competition. Mozart bet Hayden that he could not play the entertaining piece which Mozart had composed earlier that day. Haydn happily agreed to the bet as he was famous for his sight-reading of music. So Mozart produced the piece of music and put it on the keyboard. At first Haydn had no trouble with it. He began well but all of a sudden the music stopped and his hands fell to his sides. There was a difficulty. This piece of music required the pianist to play at opposite ends of the keyboard while a note was being played directly in the centre of the piano. How could this be achieved? It seemed impossible! Haydn sat and looked at the music and was finally forced to agree that Mozart had won the bet. “But you can only win if you play this piece yourself,” he said. Mozart willingly agreed. He took his place at the piano and began to play. Sure enough his two hands were soon busy at either end of the keyboard just as the note in the centre of the keyboard needed to be played. Haydn watched in amazement as Mozart bent his face towards the keyboard. As the time for the note to be played arrived, Mozart bent his head very close to the keyboard that. Then he picked out the note and played it — with his nose. Haydn laughed and had to agree that Mozart had won the bet fair and square！

　　What is teaching? It’s a difficult question to answer. In fact, as long as teachers fail to distinguish between teaching and learning, they will continue to undertake to do for children that which only children can do for themselves. Teaching children to read is not passing reading on to them. It is certainly not endless hours spent in activities about reading. Douglas insists that “reading cannot be taught directly and schools should stop trying to do the impossible”.
　　Teaching and learning are two entirely different processes. They differ in kind and function. The function of teaching is to create the conditions and the climate that will make it possible for children to devise the most efficient system for teaching themselves to read. Teaching is also a public activity. It can be seen and observed.
　　Learning to read involves all that each individual does to make sense of the world of printed language. Almost all of it is private, for learning is an occupation of the mind, and that process is not open to public scrutiny.
　　If teacher and learner roles are not interchangeable, what then can be done through teaching that will aid the child in the quest(探索) for knowledge? Smith has one principal rule for all teaching instructions. “Make learning to read easy, which means making reading a meaningful, enjoyable and frequent experience for children”.
When the roles of teacher and learner are seen for what they are, and when both teacher fulfil them appropriately, then much of the pressure and feeling of failure for both is eliminated. Learning to read is made easier when teachers create an environment where children are given the opportunity to solve the problem of leaning to read by reading.
67. According to the passage, learning to read will no longer be a difficult task when ________.
A. reading enriches children’s experience
B. teacher and learner roles are interchangeable
C. teaching helps children in the search for knowledge
D. children become highly motivated
68. The instruction of reading will be successful if .
A. teachers can enable students to develop their own way of reading
B. teachers can improve conditions at school for the students　　
C. teachers can devise the most efficient system for reading
D. teachers can make their teaching activities observable
69. The underlined word “scrutiny” most probably means “ ”.
A. inquiry　　　　 B. suspicion C. control　　 D. observation
70. The main idea of the passage is that ________.
A. teachers should do as little as possible in helping students learn to read
B. teachers should encourage students to read as widely as possible
C. reading is more complicated than generally believed
D. reading ability is something acquired rather than taught
五、阅读下面的短文，根据上下文和空白处首字母的提示补全单词
Table manners vary from culture to culture. What is a 71 in one country may be considered extremely rude in another. Here we will tell you about the ancient table manners and the m 72 table manners in Korea. Traditionally, it was the woman’s d 73 to cook food and s 74 the table.

37. B解析：as it is表示“听之任之”。
38. C　解析：开窗当然是为了让新鲜空气进来，让食物的气味排放出去。
39. A　解析：fall asleep为固定短语，表示“睡着”。
