So long as teachers fail to distinguish between teaching and learning, they will continue to undertake to do for 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 public activity: It can be seen and observed. Learning to read involves all that each individual does not 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 knowledge. Smith has one principal rule for all teaching instructions. Make learning to read easily, 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 and learner fulfill 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 learning to read by reading. 1.

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 ability is something acquired rather than taught D reading is more complicated than generally believed 参考答案:D B B A C 答案解析: 1. D。通过题干回到第二段找相对应的地方可以得知答案。根据短文得知,第一段里提到的阅读课存在的问题是教学生阅读花的时间太多。文章第一段里的第2-4句: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. 根据endless hours spent in activities about reading可以判断,大量的时间花在阅读这一活动上,再结合Teaching children to read,可以看出阅读活动是指教小孩阅读而不是小孩自己阅读,所以答案为D。 2. B。通过题干回到文章里找相对应的地方可以得知答案。根据短文得知,如果老师能够让学生培养起自己的阅读方法,那么阅读教学就成功了。文章第二段里的第三句: 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. 根据该句子的意思,教阅读是否成功在于for children to devise the most efficient system for teaching themselves to read,所以答案为B。 3. B。通过上下文可以得知答案。根据短文得知,scrutiny的意思是observation。文章第二段里的Teaching is also public activity: It can be seen and observed.与teaching 相对应的是learning to read, 而Almost all of itis private, for learning is an occupation of the mind, and that processes not open to public scrutiny.因而teaching: public, can be seen/observed,那么learning to read 则是private, not open to public scrutiny, scrutiny一定与seen/observed近义,所以答案为B。 4. A。通过题干回到文章里找相对应的地方可以得知答案。根据短文得知,当学生有强烈的学习动机时,学会阅读就不再是一件难事。文章最后一句Learning to read is made easier when teachers create an environment where children are given the opportunity to solve the problem of learning to read by reading。句中的when隐含条件,在when条件中,关键是孩子有机会通过阅读来解决学会阅读这一问题,所以答案为A。 5. C。通过文章的主题句可以得知答案。根据短文得知,阅读能力是后天习得,而不是老师教会的。文章的主题句,即para.1第一句:So 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.根据句子的意思,老师教孩子阅读,而这种做法只不过是为孩子们做了只有他们自己才能做的事,所以答案为C。
