Reading involves looking at illustrative symbols and expressing mentally the sounds and ideas they represent. Concepts of reading have changed
1
over the centuries. During the 1950’s and 1960’s especially, increased attention has been devoted to
2
the reading process. Although experts agree that reading
3
a complex organization of higher mental
4
, they disagree about the exact nature of the process. Some experts, who regard language primarily as a code using symbols to represent sounds,
5
reading as simply the decoding（解码）of symbols into the sounds they stand for.
These authorities
6
that meaning, being concerned with thinking, must be taught independently of the decoding process. Others maintain that reading is inexplainably related to thinking, and that a child who pronounces sounds without
7
their meaning is not truly reading. The reader,
8
some, is not just a person with a theoretical ability to read but one who
9
reads.
Many adults, although they have the ability to read, have never read a book in its
10
. By some experts they would not be
11
as readers. Clearly, the philosophy, objectives, methods and materials of reading will depend on the definition one use. By the most
12
and satisfactory definition, reading is the ability to
13
the sound-symbols code of the language, to interpret meaning for various
14
, at various rates, and at various levels of difficulty, and to do so widely and enthusiastically.
15
, reading is the interpretation of ideas through the use of symbols representing sounds and ideas.

“I’ve changed my mind.I wanted to have a telescope，but now I want my dad back.” Lucien Lawrence’s letter to his
father for Christmas written after his father had been knifed to
death outside his school gate，must have touched everyone’s
heart.Lucien went on to say that without his father he couldn’t see the stars in the sky.When those whom we love depart from us，we cannot see the stars for a while.
But Lucien，the stars are still there，and one day，when you are older and your tears have gone，you will see them again.And，in a strange way，I expect that you will find your father there，too，in your mind and heart.I find that my parents，who died years ago，still figure in many of my dreams and that I think of them perhaps more than I ever did when they were alive.I still live to please them and I’m still surprised by their reactions.I remember that when I became a professor，I was so proud，or rather so pleased with myself that I couldn’t wait to cable my parents.The reply was a long time in coming，but when it did，all my mother said was “I hope this means that now you will have more time for the children！” I haven’t forgotten.The values of my parents still live on.
It makes me pause and think about how I will live on in the hearts and minds of my children and of those for whom I care.Would I have been as ready as Philip Lawrence have been to face the aggressors，and to lay down my life for those in my care？How many people would want me back for Christmas？It’s a serious thought，one to give me pause.
I pray silently，sometimes，in the dead of night，that ancient cry of a poet “Deliver my soul from the sword，and my darling from the power of the dog.” Yet I know the death comes to us all，and sometimes comes suddenly.We must therefore plan to live forever，but live as if we will die tomorrow.We live on，I’m sure，in the lives of those we love，and therefore we ought to have a care for what they will remember and what they will treasure.If more parents knew this in their hearts to be true，there might be fewer knives on our streets today.

level of intelligence.
Awareness can be tested by studying whether the animal recognizes itself in the mirror, that is, its own reflected image（反射出的影像）．Many animals fail this exercise bitterly, paying very little attention to the reflected image. Only humans, and some intelligent animals like apes and dolphins, have been shown to recognize that the image in the mirror is of themselves.
Now another animal has joined the club. In the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, researchers report that an Asian elephant has passed the mirror self-reflection test. "We thought that elephants were the next important animal," said Diana Reiss of the Wildlife Conservation Society, an author of the study with Joshua M. Plotnik and Fans B．M. de Waal of Emory University. With their large brains, Reiss said, elephants "seemed like cousins to apes and
dolphins."
The researchers tested Happy, Maxine and Patty, three elephants at the Bronx Zoo. They put
an 8-foot-square mirror on a wall of the animals' play area (out of the sight of zoo visitors) and recorded what happened with cameras, including one built in the mirror.
The elephants used their long noses to find what was behind it, and to examine parts of their bodies.
Of the three, Happy then passed the test, in which a clear mark was painted on one side of her face. She could tell the mark was there by looking in the mirror, and she used the mirror to touch the mark with her long nose.
Diana Reiss said, "We knew elephants were intelligent, but now we can talk about their intelligence in a better way."
1. What can mirror tests tell us about animals?

B ．They are big favorites with zoo visitors.
C. They are included in the study by Reiss.
D. They are already known to be intelligent.
3. What made Happy different from Maxine and Patty?
A. She used her nose to search behind the mirror.
B. She recognized her own image in the mirror.
C. She painted a mark on her own face.
D. She found the hidden camera.

【2016届石家庄市高中毕业班质量检测（二）试题】
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。Everyone can benefit from making an effort to practice gratitude (感激) every day. The following three steps can help you start feeling more grateful, and appreciative of the good things in your life:
Notice the Good Things in Your Life
36
Pay attention to the small everyday details of your life—nature, people, community, shelter, creature comforts like a warm bed or a good meal. And then start a gratitude journal. Making a commitment to writing down good things each day makes it more likely that we will notice good things as they happen.
Enjoy the Feeling of Gratitude
There are moments when you naturally, right then and there, feel filled with gratitude. These are moments when you say to yourself, "Oh, wow, this is amazing!" or "How great is this!" Pause.
37
Let it sink in. Enjoy your blessings in the moment they happen.
Express Gratitude
Expressing gratitude is more than being polite.
38
Show your appreciation to someone who really did something nice. Say: “It was really kind of you to...,” “You did me a big favor when...,” or “Thank you for being there when...”.
39
Hold the door open for the person behind you, even if it means waiting a little longer than you normally would.
True gratitude doesn’t leave you feeling like you owe other people something—after all, if you’ve done someone a favor, you probably don’t want the person to feel like you expect something back in return.
40
It’s about showing your heartfelt appreciation.
Notice and absorb that feeling of true gratitude.
You can also express gratitude by doing a kindness.
It’s all about feeling good and creating a cycle of good.
Start to notice and identify the things you are grateful for.
Help someone without letting the person find out it was you.
It's amazing what you notice when you focus on feeling grateful.
