In Phoenix,Arizona,about one in five children is identified with dyslexia(
)That means about four students in a classroom of twenty have the problem.
Christine Alm,who has the virtue of being ready to help others,is the co-founder
of Dyslexia Road and the mother of four children with dyslexia.According to Alm,
each diagnosis()is unique.That can make it difficult to understand a child's
learning needs.Alm has recently co-founded Dyslexia Road with three other moms
whose children also have dyslexia.The nonprofit organization provides learning
resources for children who have the learning disability.
Dyslexia means a person has trouble processing written words due to the
difficulty of identifying speech sounds.Alm explains that people with dyslexia need
more assistance in training their brain to read.But she adds that many people with
dyslexia are extremely creative and smart.Whoopi Goldberg,Dav Pilkey and Steven
Spielberg are among the famous Americans who have dyslexia.
For Alm,the biggest challenge dealing with dyslexia with her own children is the

discussions."Dyslexia is nothing good or bad,"she says."So children don't need to
feel shameful and embarrassed."

resources about dyslexia.On March 2,the organization celebrated its launch with a
community gathering.Many people turned up,suggesting to Alm the "power of
community".Dyslexia Road will also host three additional events to connect families
with learning experts.Guests will discuss the available educational options,how to get
a diagnostic evaluation and more.Additionally,the Dyslexia Road website offers
resources like books.
"We're excited to get out there and start pushing forward so that people can come

C
With mounting evidence that nanoplastic particles(纳米塑料微粒)are in our bodies,,
there is growing concern over their potential health impacts.Now a new study finds a
relation between nanoplastics in the brain and a higher risk for Parkinson's disease.
Nanoplastics appear when the plastic packaging breaks down into small pieces.
These particles can enter the blood and cross the blood-brain barrier,with European
researchers reporting earlier this year that in animal experiments,it can take two hours or
less for certain nanoplastics to reach the brain after being eaten.
In humans,it's long been thought that environmental factors play a role in
Parkinson's disease but specific causes are still unclear.The new study from the Duke
University School of Medicine details how nanoplastics cause chemical changes in the
brain that can,in tur,make Parkinson's and related types of diseases more likely
That's because the nanoplastics attract a protein (called alpha-synuclein,
known to play a role in Parkinson's and related disorders.In lab and animal studies,the
plastic's interaction with it leads to increases in the affected neurons in the brain.This
interaction appears related to favorable conditions in which Parkinson's can develop
The study authors note that Parkinson's disease existed long before nanoplastics
appeared in the environment,but they think that this"nanoplastics pollution in the
human brain"may prove a new poison.
Further,the Duke team led by Dr.Andrew West notes that Parkinson's disease is
among the fastest growing nervous diseases in the world,even as the amazing amount of
plastic pollution builds across the planet.This is expected to continue for the foreseeable
future.
"The technology to monitor nanoplastics is still at the earliest possible stages and not
ready yet to answer all the questions we have,"West said."But hopefully efforts in this
area will increase rapidly,as we see what these particles can do in our experiments."
31 Whcre is the text most probably taken from?
A.A product advertisement.
B.A science journal.
C.An art magazine.
D.A travel brochure.
32.What is paragraph 4 mainly about?
A.The conditions leading to Parkinson's.
B.The cause of alpha-synuclein's appearance
C.The principle of nanoplastics'impact on Parkinson's.
D.The difference between Parkinson's and related disorders.
高一英语试卷第6页(共12页)
33.Which of the following statements is TRUE?
A.Nanoplastics pollution is not the only cause leading to Parkinson's disease.
B.It takes over two hours for certain nanoplastics to reach the brain after being eaten.
C.People are not concerned about the relation between nanoplastics pollution and a
higher risk for Parkinson's disease
D.It's long been thought that nanoplastics cause chemical changes in the brain.
34.What can be inferred from West's words in the last paragraph?
A.Plastic pollution will by no means be avoided.
B.Nanoplastics are impossible to deal with at present.
C.Fewer people will suffer from Parkinson's in the future.
D.More efforts in the study of nanoplastics will be put in.
35.What is a suitable title for the text?
A.Nanoplastics can enter the brain through blood
B.Nanoplastics may promote Parkinson's disease
C.Alpha-synuclein plays a role in Parkinson's disease
D.Nanoplastics will do serious harm to human health

haven't met many people from different backgrounds,it can be hard to know how to
respect their culture.36
Know your own culture
One of the best ways to understand other people's cultures is to first consider your
own.Most of us don't realize that our customs and beliefs might seem strange to
someone else.Don't think of your own way of life as the only normal one and everyone
else's to be strange.31

about how different people live.When you meet people from a different culture,ask
them about their lives.Also,you can read books,watch movies or listen to radio shows.
