Kyle Schwartz, a new teacher at Doull Elementary School in Denver, teaches a thirdgrade class. Most of her students come from underprivileged homes, as 92 percent are allowed to free or reduced school lunches, she said. “As a new teacher, I tried to understand my students’ real lives and how to best support them. I just felt like there was something I didn’t know about my students,” she said. To solve this problem, she asked her students to complete the sentence: “I wish my teacher knew. . . ”
While some children used the notes to jokingly complain (抱怨)about homework or to ask for more playtime, Ms. Schwartz said some of the answers were “heartbreaking”, as children showed their hard lives. One student told Ms. Schwartz that he did not have any pencils at home, while another said that they hadn’t seen their father for six years. And another student wrote, “I wish my teacher knew sometimes my homework is not signed (签字)because my mom is not around a lot.” She posted them to Twitter in March with the hashtag #I Wish My Teacher Knew #
Teachers on Twitter soon noticed how successful Ms. Schwartz’s way was for reaching out to students and began sharing similar notes they received alongside #I Wish My Teacher Knew #.
Ms. Schwartz said that since she encouraged her students to share their secrets, students have been supporting each other more, and she hopes the method will connect students and their families with the proper things they need to live comfortably. She added that the results have been surprising, and the student that said she didn’t have anyone to play with has since been invited by classmates to join them in the school playground.
4. What does the underlined word “underprivileged” in Paragraph I probably mean
A. Comfortable. B. Happy. C. Broken. D. Poor.
5. Why did Kyle ask her students to complete the sentence
A. To better understand them. B. To encourage their creativity.
C. To develop their writing skills. D. To teach them to introduce themselves.
6. What was the attitude of teachers on Twitter to Kyle’s idea
A. Uncaring. B. Worried. C. Surprised. D. Supportive.
7. How did Kyle look at her method
A. It was difficult for her students. B. It might upset some students.
C. It helped her students in many ways. D. It would improve her school’s environment.

In the autumn of 1924 Thomas Wolfe, fresh from his courses in playwriting at Harvard University, joined us who were teaching English composition at New York University. I had never seen a man so tall as he, and so ugly. I pitied him and went out of my way to help him with his work and make him feel at home.
His students soon let me know that he had no need of my protectiveness. They spoke of his ability to explain a poem in such a way as to have them in fit s of laughter. Besides, his students made so much of his powers of observation (观察力) that I decided to make a little test and see for myself. My chance came one morning when the students were slowly gathering (集合) for nine o’ clock classes.
Upon arriving at the university that day, I found Wolfe alone in the large room which served all the English composition teachers as an office. He did not say anything when I asked him to come with me out into the hall, and he only smiled when we reached a classroom door and I told him to enter alone and look around.
He stepped in, remained no more than thirty seconds and then came out. “Tell me what you see,” I said as I took his place in the room, leaving him in the hall with his back to the door. Without any mistakes, he gave the number of seats in the room, pointed out those which were taken by boys and those taken by girls, and pointed out the words written on the blackboard.
As I rejoined Wolfe, I was totally speechless. He, however, was very calm as he said, “The worst thing about it is that I’ll remember it all.”
8. Why did Wolfe come to join the author
A. To get some experience. B. To offer him some help.
C. To learn to write plays. D. To make more friends.
9. Which of the following is TRUE of the test
A. It took place on an autumn evening in 1924. B. It was a test made for Wolfe on his honesty.
C. Wolfe did not feel angry when he was tested. D. Wolfe’s students showed no interest in the test.
10. What can we learn about the author’s feelings in the text
A. Angry→ sad→proud. B. Shy→lonely→happy.
C. Worried→nervous→hopeful. D. Sorry→doubtful→surprised.
11. What is mainly described in the text
A. Thomas Wolfe’s life at Harvard University. B. Thomas Wolfe’s ability to remember things.
C. English composition at New York University. D. The playwriting courses at Harvard University.
D
If you were to travel back in time to the tenth century, you probably wouldn't be able to understand sentence that anyone said to you. They'd be speaking Old English. Talking to a tenth-century Englishman, you'd probably only be able to understand a few words like"a"or"the". Only about one-sixth of today's English words have an Old English root(词根), with the rest having foreign influences.
Gradually Old English turned into the Middle English that Chaucer wrote in-but still the official language of England was French! It was only in 1362, during Chaucer's lifetime that English was used at the opening of Parliament(议会) for the first time. During the same year a law called the"Statute of Pleading"was passed, making English the official language in Parliament. In 1399, King Henry IV became the first king of England after the Norman Conquest whose mother tongue was English.
English was still a language of low status(地位) especially when it came to writing poetry(诗歌) During the 14th century, the Italians and French were creative. Great poets like Dante were writing in totally new ways But English had no such great writers. This was where Chaucer made a difference. He took the language of the man in the street and turned it into many famous works, such as The Canterbury Tales. Chaucer proved poetry written in English could be every bit as good as books in French.
Of course, the English language has continued to change since Chaucer's day. For example, Shakespeare English is quite different from Chaucer's. And it is still changing now Until just a few years ago, "C U L8R"(see you later)was just a set of letters and numbers, but now most people know what it means!
12. What happened during Chaucer 's lifetime
A. Old English began to turn into the Middle English.
B. English's status was greatly improved.
C. English was used only in Parliament
D. English kings usually spoke English.
13. Why was Chaucer so great
A. He first used formal English to write.
B. He had a big influence on poets like Dante.
C. He was a pioneer in writing English poems.
D. He encouraged people to read books in French.
14. Why lid the author give the example of Shakespeare's English
A. To explain English is always changing.
B. To explain how the Middle English changed.
C. To show Shakespeare's English is unusual.
D. To show how people respond to new words.
15. How is the text developed
A By space.
B. By comparison(对比)
C. By importance.
D. By time.

In the autumn of 1924 Thomas Wolfe, fresh from his courses in playwriting at Harvard University, joined us who were teaching English composition at New York University. I had never seen a man so tall as he, and so ugly. I pitied him and went out of my way to help him with his work and make him feel at home.
His students soon let me know that he had no need of my protectiveness. They spoke of his ability to explain a poem in such a way as to have them in fit s of laughter. Besides, his students made so much of his powers of observation (观察力) that I decided to make a little test and see for myself. My chance came one morning when the students were slowly gathering (集合) for nine o’ clock classes.
Upon arriving at the university that day, I found Wolfe alone in the large room which served all the English composition teachers as an office. He did not say anything when I asked him to come with me out into the hall, and he only smiled when we reached a classroom door and I told him to enter alone and look around.
He stepped in, remained no more than thirty seconds and then came out. “Tell me what you see,” I said as I took his place in the room, leaving him in the hall with his back to the door. Without any mistakes, he gave the number of seats in the room, pointed out those which were taken by boys and those taken by girls, and pointed out the words written on the blackboard.
As I rejoined Wolfe, I was totally speechless. He, however, was very calm as he said, “The worst thing about it is that I’ll remember it all.”
8. Why did Wolfe come to join the author
A. To get some experience. B. To offer him some help.
C. To learn to write plays. D. To make more friends.
9. Which of the following is TRUE of the test
A. It took place on an autumn evening in 1924. B. It was a test made for Wolfe on his honesty.
C. Wolfe did not feel angry when he was tested. D. Wolfe’s students showed no interest in the test.
10. What can we learn about the author’s feelings in the text
A. Angry→ sad→proud. B. Shy→lonely→happy.
C. Worried→nervous→hopeful. D. Sorry→doubtful→surprised.
11. What is mainly described in the text
A. Thomas Wolfe’s life at Harvard University. B. Thomas Wolfe’s ability to remember things.
C. English composition at New York University. D. The playwriting courses at Harvard University.

If you were to travel back in time to the tenth century, you probably wouldn't be able to understand sentence that anyone said to you. They'd be speaking Old English. Talking to a tenth-century Englishman, you'd probably only be able to understand a few words like"a"or"the". Only about one-sixth of today's English words have an Old English root(词根), with the rest having foreign influences.
Gradually Old English turned into the Middle English that Chaucer wrote in-but still the official language of England was French! It was only in 1362, during Chaucer's lifetime that English was used at the opening of Parliament(议会) for the first time. During the same year a law called the"Statute of Pleading"was passed, making English the official language in Parliament. In 1399, King Henry IV became the first king of England after the Norman Conquest whose mother tongue was English.
English was still a language of low status(地位) especially when it came to writing poetry(诗歌) During the 14th century, the Italians and French were creative. Great poets like Dante were writing in totally new ways But English had no such great writers. This was where Chaucer made a difference. He took the language of the man in the street and turned it into many famous works, such as The Canterbury Tales. Chaucer proved poetry written in English could be every bit as good as books in French.
Of course, the English language has continued to change since Chaucer's day. For example, Shakespeare English is quite different from Chaucer's. And it is still changing now Until just a few years ago, "C U L8R"(see you later)was just a set of letters and numbers, but now most people know what it means!
12. What happened during Chaucer 's lifetime
A. Old English began to turn into the Middle English.
B. English's status was greatly improved.
C. English was used only in Parliament
D. English kings usually spoke English.
13. Why was Chaucer so great
A. He first used formal English to write.
B. He had a big influence on poets like Dante.
C. He was a pioneer in writing English poems.
D. He encouraged people to read books in French.
14. Why lid the author give the example of Shakespeare's English
A. To explain English is always changing.
B. To explain how the Middle English changed.
C. To show Shakespeare's English is unusual.
D. To show how people respond to new words.
15. How is the text developed
A. By space.
B. By comparison(对比)
C. By importance.
D. By time.
