19. Reading is a good hobby for all kinds of reasons.

First, reading is fun. You can always keep yourself happy if you like reading. You will never feel bored or tired.

Next, you can read a book almost anywhere---in a car, on a plane, or even in the bathroom. All you need is a book!

Another good reason for reading is that it is useful. If you read as a hobby, you will get better and better at it. And you will read faster and find it easier to un derstand what you read. As your reading skills improve, you will probably find your schoolwork becomes much better.

Some people say that reading is out of date. This is not true. You can read on computers, and the better you read, the better your computer skills will be. Good readers may become writers too. They always have more things to write about.

If you wish to become a good reader, here are four important points to remember about speed of reading:

Knowing why you are reading---what you are reading to find out---will often help you to know whether to read quickly or slowly.

Some things should be read slowly throughout. Examples are instructions for making or doing something, solving math problems, and science and history b ooks, which are full of important information. You must read such things slowly to remember each important idea.

Some things should be read quickly throughout. Examples are simple stories for enjoyment, letters from friends and news from local newspapers, which tell what was happening to friends and neighbors.

In some of your reading, you must change your speed from fast to slow or from slow to fast as you go along. You need to read certain pages quickly and then slow down and do more careful reading when you come to important ideas which must be remembered.

【小题1】You can read a book ________.

A．almost anywhere B．when you are driving a car

We’ve come a long way from blackboards and chalk. Modern technology (技术) has provided us with lots of ways we can make learning more interesting. P erhaps most importantly of all, it’s also more interactive (互动).

Some kinds of tools have been developed. They make the 21st century learning experience much more interactive and interesting. Attracting the attention of students is always difficult, but these tools have made a big difference in how pupils learn.

For example, an interactive whiteboard is different from a traditional chalkboard. It allows the teachers to show images and provide sounds as well. If you i magine a large computer screen with colorful images and sounds added in, you can see why so many pupils are drawn in by what they see and hear in a mod ern classroom.

Various audio (声音的) tools also help to make sure that everyone can hear what the teacher has to say. In the past, if a teacher said something that a child m issed, perhaps the child was too timid (胆小的) or nervous to ask them to repeat it. Now they are less likely to miss out simply because they’re sitting too far away from the teacher to hear them.

The 21st century classroom is able to teach pupils more than one thing. For example, imagine a history lesson is given in a modern classroom. How is it diff erent from a classroom setting in the past? The answer is simple. The students will not only learn about history itself, they will also learn how to use the mo dern equipment (设备) that helps the teacher get their messages across.

Modern technology can make teaching and learning easier. Student response (应答) system makes everyone able to express their opinions or answers witho ut having to speak up. Since everyone can do it, the teacher can see who needs more help in other ways.

It’s clear that this kind of classroom technology is making a great difference in modern classrooms.

【小题1】Modern technology ______ .

A．is less interactive B．makes learning more boring

C．only uses blackboards and chalk D．provides us with many better learning ways 【小题2】The interactive whiteboard ________ .

A．allows the teachers to show images and sounds as well

B．can’t attract pupils’ attention in the class

C．is the same as traditional chalkboard

D．is a computer screen with only black and white images

【小题3】How can the various audio tools help in learning?

A．It makes sure that everyone is less likely to miss what the teachers say.

B．It makes the timid students brave enough to ask teachers to repeat what they say.

C．It helps teachers to speak as much as they can.

D．It can only repeat what the teachers say.

【小题4】What can you imagine a modern classroom different from the one setting the past?

A．Students can learn all subjects with modern technology except History.

B．Teachers don’t have to be in the class.

C．Students can express their ideas more freely.

D．Teachers have to ask students who needs more help one by one.

【小题5】In the last paragraph, the underlined phrase “making a great difference” means “______”.

A．making a different thing

B．playing an important role

C．not being a same thing

D．preventing us from learning

24. Have you ever been to Singapore? For many Chinese tourists, this small island in Southeast Asia is a wonderful place to take a holiday.

One great thing about Singapore is that the temperature is almost the same all year round t seldom drops below 20℃. It’s warm and wet the whole year This is because it is so close to the equator. So you can choose to go whenever you like—spring, summer, autumn or winter! And, of course, it’s not too far f rom China. For those who enjoy the sun and the beach, Singapore is an ideal place.

On the northeast coast of Singapore, Changi Village is far from the noise of central Singapore. The buildings are modern, but there’s still a village termi nal (晚期的) atmosphere.
