It was my first year teaching in a special needs class, and I wasn't sure what to expect at our yearly Special Olympics sports meeting. My 21 had some challenges, from learning disabilities to cerebral palsy(大脑性麻痹).

Mark was one with the latter. Restricted to a 22 , he had to fight his spasms (抽筋) just to control his movements. 23 , he always had a positive attitude and greeted everyone with a huge smile．

His classmates 24 him and always took the time to make sure he was included in group activities, especially Mike, Andy and Lucas, three boys who were good at 25 .

When the day came, Mike, Andy and Lucas 28 well in their sports events, and gave the normally calm audience something to cheer about．Mark sat in his wheelchair on the sidelines, 29 them on.

The final event of the day was the 400- meter race. 30 was invited to either walk or run, according to their ability, around the 31 length of the track.

第二部分：阅读理解（第一节20小题，第二节5小题；每小题2分，满分50分）

第一节：阅读下列材料，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题纸上将该选项标号涂黑。

A

Perhaps TV does educate you. For example, you learn a useful medical fact: A person who has been shot always has time to speak an incomplete sentence before he dies. “The killer was…” (dies)

But I guess the biggest things we learn from TV can be regarded as “Life Skills”. Bad things only happen on dark and stormy nights. Emotional breakdowns cause people to wander in the heavy rain without umbrellas. And contrary to what scientists say, the crack (霹雳) of lightning and the accompanying flash happen at exactly the same time, wherever you are.

I’ve even acquired useful geographical facts from science-fiction shows: Aliens speak English no matter which planet they come from.

TV also teaches us important information about escaping from danger. Watch and learn. (1) If anyone is running after you down a passage, you will find that boxes have been conveniently placed near all the walls you need to jump over. (2) If you are tall and handsome, you can run from any number of armed criminals, and every shot will miss you.

Be warned, however. If your name card says “henchman” (帮凶) and you are part of a group of plain-looking people trying to catch a handsome individual, a single shot will kill you. But don’t be anxious: TV also delivers useful information for bad guys. All cars are inflammable (易燃的) and have amazing shock absorbers that enable them to fly into the air and land without damage — except police cars.

TV even teaches us about TV. Whenever anyone turns on a TV, it shows a news flash about someone they know. They then turn the box off immediately after that news item.

41. By saying “A person who has been shot always has time to speak an incomplete sentence

before he dies” (Paragraph 2), the writer shows his________.

A. humor B. sympathy C. deep concern D. medical knowledge

42. We can learn from Paragraph 2 that in the real world_______.

A. bad things cause people to break down in the rain

B. bad things never happen on dark and stormy nights

C. people with emotional problems like to walk in the rain without umbrellas

D. the crack of lightning and the accompanying flash don’t happen at the same time

43. On TV what usually happens when a person turns it on?

A. The news shown is always about someone the person knows.

B. The person always turns off the TV when it’s time for news.

C. The program shown is always about the importance of TV.

D. TV always shows news about famous people.

44. What’s the main idea of this passage?

A. Life skills can be learned from TV.

B. TV plays an important role in society.

C. Watching TV makes people more creative.

D. What happens on TV is very different from reality.

45. The writer of this passage takes a(n) _______ attitude towards TV plays.

A. positive B. casual C. negative D. indifferent
