Although many Chinese students say their knowledge of English grammar is good, most would admit that their spoken English is poor. 61     However, their spoken English does not have to remain poor I would suggest that there may be some reasons for their problems with spoken English.

     First,  62    Obviously the better answer is to expand their vocabulary. However, you can speak with a limited vocabulary if your attitude is positive. Others will follow you as long as you use the words that you know.

     Second, 63      Sometimes they make mistakes when they are speaking because they are shy and nervous. Yet students should remember that their goal should be FLUENCY NOT ACCURACY. You want to get your message across, to talk to someone in English, as quickly and as well as you can, even though sometimes you may use a wrong word or tense, but it doesn't matter because the person you are speaking to will understand you and make allowance for any mistakes he hears.

     The third,   64    You have one mouth but two ears! All that hearing is necessary for you to start speaking.

     Fourth,    65      Instead of actively seeking out opportunities to improve their spoken English, they passively wait for speaking opportunities to come to them and wonder why their spoken English always remains poor. If you have this proactive outlook, then you will see English opportunities wherever you go.

A not enough attention is paid to listening.

B they fail to find suitable words to express themselves because of  limited vocabulary.

C most Chinese students are not active language learners.

D They are so stupid that they cannot finish their necessary homework in time.

E Whenever I speak to Chinese students they always say, "My spoken English is poor."

F it is no use crying over spilt milk.

G they are afraid of making mistake .

A are students allowed    B allowed are students

I didn't cry when I learned I was the parent of a mentally(腦力地) disabled(殘疾) child. I just sat still and didn't say anything while my husband and I were told that two-year-old Kristi was ---  36  we thought ---retarded（弱智的）.

At seven, Kristi attended school and everything went on well. However, during her second year in school, she faced a very painful experience. The big public  37  of the term was a competition based on the year's music and physical education activities.

On the day of the program, Kristi  38  to be sick. Hopelessly I wanted to keep her home. Why let Kristi fail in a gym filled with parents, students and teachers?

　 The performance went surprisingly well,   44  , until it was time for the sack race(跳袋比賽). Now each child had to climb into a sack from a standing position,  45  to a goal line, return and climb out of the sack.

A girl in front of Kristi took her hand and  52   her carefully until Kristi gained her balance. Then off she jumped,  53  and proud.

　　 Among the  54   of teachers, schoolmates and parents, I walked off by myself to thank God for the  55  , understanding people in life who make it possible for my disabled daughter to be like her fellow human beings.

As a professor at a large American university, there is a phrase that I hear often from students:“I’m only a 1050.”The unlucky students are speaking of the score on the Scholastic Aptitude Test(SAT),which is used to determine whether they will be admitted to the college or university of their choice, or even if they have a chance to get a higher education at all. The SAT score, whether it is 800,1100 or 1550,has become the focus at this time of their life.

It is obvious that if students value highly their test scores, then a great amount of their self-respect is put in the number. Students who perform poorly on the exam are left feeling that it is all over. The low test score, they think, will make it impossible for them to get into a good college. And without a degree from a prestigious university, they fear that many of life’s doors will remain forever closed.

According to a study done in the 1990s,the SAT is only a reliable indicator of a student’s future performance in most cases. Interestingly, it becomes much more accurate when it is set together with other indicators-like a student’s high school grades. Even if standardized tests like the SAT could show a student’s academic proficiency(學業(yè)水平)，they will never be able to test things like confidence, efforts and willpower, and are unable to give us the full picture of a student’s potentialities(潛力).This is not to suggest that we should stop using SAT scores in our college admission process. The SAT is an excellent test in many ways, and the score is still a useful means of testing students. However, it should be only one of many methods used.

63.The purpose of the SAT is to test students’ ______.

A. strong will  B. academic ability C. full potentialities     D. confidence in school work

64.Students’ self-respect is influenced by their ______.

A. scores in the SAT                          B. achievements in mathematics

C. job opportunities                                D. money spent on education

65.“A prestigious university” is most probably ______.

A. a famous university                        B. a technical university

C. a traditional university                    D. an expensive university

66.This passage is mainly about ______.

A. how to prepare for the SAT             B. stress caused by the SAT

C. American higher education                  D. the SAT and its effects
