　　　　 Who did this? asked my teacher. Thirty children tried to think about not only what they had done, but also what our teacher might have found out.

　　　　 Who did this? she asked again. She wasnt really asking, she was demanding an answer. She never became angry, but she was this time. She held up a piece of broken glass and asked, Who broke this window?

　　　　 Oh, oh, I thought. I was the one who broke the window. I did not do it on purpose. It was caused by a bad throw of a baseball. Why did it have to be me?

　　　　 If I admitted it, I would be in a lot of trouble. How would I be able to pay for a big window like that? My father is going to get mad at me, I thought. I didnt want to raise my hand, but some force much stronger than me pulled it up. I did it. Then I was silent. It was hard enough saying what I had.

　　　　 My teacher went to one of our library shelves and took down a book. She then began walking towards my desk. I had never known my teacher to strike a student, but I feared she was going to start with me.

　　　　 I know how you like birds, Henry. she said as she stood looking down at my face. Here is that field guide about birds that you are always checking out. It is yours. We got a new one for the school anyway. You will not be punished. But remember, its only for your truthfulness.

　　　　I couldnt believe it! I wasnt being punished and I was getting my very own bird field guide. The very one that I had been saving up all my money to buy.

　　阅读理解（C）

　　When Joe Bates was twelve years old, he lost interest in school. He stopped listening in his classes. Some of his teachers began to consider him a problem.

　　But a few of Joes teachers thought that Joe might have lost interest in schoolwork because he already understood it． They proposed that Joe try taking a university class in computer science． Joe did． He was the best student in the class．Later tests showed that his intelligence(智力) and knowledge were far greater than most children of his age． He entered university when he was thirteen, about four years earlier than most children． And by the time he was in his early twenties, Joe was teaching computer science at a university．

　　Joes story shows what can happen when a childs unusual ability is recognized ． Sadly, however, not all gifted children get this recognition． And educational experts say unusually gifted children may waste their abilities if they do not get help to develop them．

　　Studies show that almost twenty percent of students who fail to complete high school in the United States are gifted children.

　　This is because gifted children can have special problems as well as special abilities. Teachers may not recognize their abilities or may not know how to keep them interested. Or they may consider such students to be troublemakers or rebels.

　　Gifted children may feel lonely or different because they do not know other children who share their interests.

　　Educators say there are more than two million gifted children in the United States today. But they say fewer than half are taking part in special education programs designed for them.

　　One of the most successful programs is help every summer at John Hopkins University in the state of Maryland, where Joe Bates went to school． It started in 1980 when educators saw that there must be many children like Joe.

　　At first, only 100 children took part in it, and now more than 1,000 children between the ages of nine and sixteen are students in the summer program.

　　The John Hopkins program provides studies in math and science. It also has classes for children with unusual ability in language and writing. The children study the same subject every day for several weeks. It could be biology, or history, or English literature. In those few weeks, they learn as much as in a normal nine-month school year.

　　William Durden, the director says the program succeeds because it permits children to make progress more quickly than in a traditional program．And the children get to meet others like themselves.

　　A．he lost interest in school

　　B．he hated those teachers who considered him a problem

　　A．he can do whatever he likes

　　B．he will no longer be considered to be a troublemaker or rebel

　　A．recognize and develop gifted childrens unusual abilities

　　B．design and support special education programs for gifted children

　　C．help gifted children get to meet others who share their interests

　　D．encourage gifted children instead of treating them as a problem when they lost interest in school
