Section C
Directions: For each blank in the following passage, there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.
Recent years have seen considerable growth in the number of children learning a second or foriegn language, as the importance of being able to use a language other than one’s first language has become recognized in an increasingly globalized world. In Asia and Europe 28, there has been a tendency to lower the age at which school children begin to learn a foreign language, since it is believed that the earlier a child starts to learn a foreign language, the greater the final achievement will be.
In many countries, the language of education is not the same as the language of the home for the 29 of children. Furthermore, in many countries, young language learners comprise the most rapidly growing segment of the elementary (primary) school population.
30 in some schools there is no extra support to help young language learners acquire the language of instruction, in most countries where there are large numbers of young learners, there is a growing awareness of their special needs. There is 31 a need to identify the needs of young language learners, to 32 what level, if any, of proficiency（效率）they have in the target language to find their strengths and areas in need of improvement. Language assessment, whether this is informal, classroom-based, or largescale, thus has an important role to 33 in gathering the information needed for these purposes.
Unfortunately, the vast majority of teachers who work with young languages have had little or no 34 training or education in language assessment. Teachers are involved in assessment on a daily basis, as they 35 their pupils’ classroom performance, and as they develop formal classroom assessments. Assessment should therefore, wherever possible, be familiar and involve familiar adults, rather than 36 . The environment should be sale for the learner. Teachers responding kindly to the child’s efforts is ideal for young learners. Such feedback maintains attention and confidence. As children grow, they are able to work more 37 and for long spans of time ongoing feedback.
( ) 28.A.in particular B.as a result C.for example D.in other words
( ) 29.A.majority B.amount C.quantity D.number
( ) 30.A.Before B.While C.As D.If
( ) 31.A.however B.moreover C.instead D.therefore
( ) 32.A.discuss B.determine C.teach D.train
( ) 33.A.affect B.perform C.play D.arrange
( ) 34.A.personal B.valuable C.professional D.approval
( ) 35.A.monitor B.master C.check D.control

Some years ago, writing diary used to be a usual activity. I would return from school and spend the expected half hour recording the day’s events, feelings, and impressions in my little blue diary. I did not really need to express my emotions by way of words, but I gained a certain satisfaction from seeing my experiences forever recorded on paper. After all, isn’t accumulating memories a way of preserving the past?
When I was thirteen years old, I went on a long journey on foot in a great valley, well-equipped with pens, a diary, and a camera. During the trip, I was busy recording every incident, name and place I came across. I felt proud to be spending my time productively, dutifully preserving for future generations a detailed description of my travels. On my last night there, I wandered out of my tent, diary in hand. The sky was clear and lit by the glare of the moon, and the walls of the valley looked threatening behind their screen of shadows. I automatically took out my pen...
At that point, I understood that nothing I wrote could ever match or replace the few seconds I allowed myself to experience the dramatic beauty of the valley. All I remembered of the previous few days were the dull characterizations I had set down in my diary.
Now, I only write in my diary when I need to write down a special thought or feeling. I still love to record ideas and quotations that strike ne in books, or observations that are particularly meaningful. I take pictures, but not very often---only of objects I find really beautiful. I’m no longer blindly satisfied with having something to remember when I grow old. I realize that life will simply pass me by if I stay behind the camera, busy preserving the present so as to live it in the future.
I don’t want to wake up one day and have nothing but a pile of pictures and notes. Maybe I won’t have as many exact representations（代表）of people and places; maybe I’ll forget certain facts, but at least the experiences will always remain inside me. I don’t live to make memories---I just live, and the memories form themselves.
( ) 41.Before the age of thirteen, the author regard keeping a diary as a way of .
A.observing her school routine B.expressing her satisfaction
C.impressing her classmates D.preserving her history
( ) 41.What caused a change in the author’s understanding of keep a diary?
A.A dull night on the journey. B.The beauty of the great valley.
C.A striking quotation from a book. D.Her concerns for future generations.
( ) 42.What does the author put in her diary now?
A.Notes and beautiful pictures. B.Special thoughts and feelings.
C.Detailed accounts of daily activities. D.Descriptions of unforgettable events.
( ) 43.The author comes to realize that to live a meaning life is .
A.to experience it B.to live the present in the future

When 19-year-old Sophia Girogi said she was thinking of volunteering to help the Make-A-Wish Foundatuon（基金会）, nobody understood what she was talking about. But Sophia knew just how important Make-A-Wish could be because this speical organization had helped to make a dream come true for one of her best friends. We were interested in finding out more, so we went along to meet Sophia listen to what she had to say.

We asked Sophia how Make-A-Wish had first startd. She said it had all begun with a very sick young boy called Chris, who had been dreaming for a long time of becoming a policeman. Sophia said lots of people had wanted to find a way to make Chris’s dream come true---so, with everybody’s help, Chris, only seven years old at the time, had been a “policeman” for a day. “When people saw hoe delighted Chris was when his dream came true, they decided to try and help others sick children too, and that was the beginning of Make-A-Wish,” explained Sophia. Sophia also told us that Foundation tries to give children and their family a special, happy time. A Make-A-Wish volunteer visits the families and asks the children what they would wish for if they could have anything in the world. Sophia said the volunteers were important because they were the ones who helped to make the wishes come true. They do this either by providing things that necessary, or by raising money or helping out in whatever way they can.

Directions: Read the following passage and complete the statements that follow. Write one word or more in each space.
When young people in the United States gather for fun, there is a good chance that they will soon be dancing. If there are no musicians, they will play records. If there are no records, someone is certain to have a radio. One way or another there will be dancing.
The ways that boys and girls dance will often change every year or two. You may hear them say that the very latest steps are “in”, while last year’s steps are “out”. Each boy and girl takes pride in learning newest things. They feel that this is important to remain popular with their friends.
Years ago the dances of young people were not very different from those of their parents, but high school and college students of today have created their own music and have invented their own dances, thanks to people like Chubby Checker, the Beatles, and Elvis Presley. These musicians helped to make popular an exciting new kind of music that people began to dance to in a different way.
In the late 1950s Chubby Checker started a dance the he called the “twist”. The twist, like so many new dances, was lively, and people who performed it used a lot of energy. The word chubby means “a little bit fat”, which is why this singer and dancer called himself Chubby.
After demonstrating his new dance hundreds of times, however, Chubby was no longer chubby. This is one of the advantages. Even if older people do not like the new dances, they must agree that people, get much more exercise from modern dances than they ever got from a waltz.
