But if you judge a fish, by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid.” — Albert Einstein If you have a kid with special needs in the school system, you’re likely to have come across that saying hanging on a classroom wall. My five-year-old daughter Syona has cerebral palsy (脑瘫) and it means, combined with her communication and sight problems, that normal standard isn’t always an accurate measure of her abilities. By now you have probably heard about Chris Ulmer, the 26-year old teacher in Jacksonville, Florida, who starts his special education class by calling up each student to give them much admiration and a high-five. I couldn’t help but be reminded of Syona’s teacher and how she supports each kid in a very similar way. Ulmer recently shared a video of his teaching experience. “I have seen their confidence increase rapidly.” he said. All I could think was: how lucky these students are to have such good teachers. Syona’s teacher has an attitude that can best be summarized in one word: wonderful. Her teacher doesn’t focus on what can’t be done — she focuses on what can be done. Over the past several months, my husband Dilip and I have seen Syona’s confidence increase greatly. She uses words she wouldn’t have thought of using before. She recently told me about her classmates trip to Ecuador and was very proud when I understood her on the first try. I actually wonder what the influence would be if we did something similar to what Ulmer does with his students in our home. We’ve recently started our day by reminding each other of the good qualities we all have. If we are reminded of our strengths on a regular basis, we will become increasingly confident about progress and success. 4. What does the author think of Albert Einstein’s saying? A. Funny. B. True. C. Strange. D. Confusing. 5. What can we learn about Syona’s teacher? A. She is Syona’s favorite teacher. B. She puts Einstein’s quote on the wall C. She uses videos to teach her students. D. She helps increase her students’ confidence. 6. What change has taken place in the author’s family? A. They’ve invited Ulmer’s students to their home. B They visit Ulmer’s classroom regularly. C. They give each other praise every day. D. They feel thankful to people in their lives. 7. What is the author’s attitude towards Chris Ulmar’s way of teaching? A. Supportive B. Opposed C. Indifferent D. Negative C Traveling without a map in different countries, I find out about different ways of directions every time I ask “How can I get to the post office?” Foreign tourists are often puzzled in Japan because most streets there don’ t have name signs. In Japan, people use landmarks (地标) in their directions instead of street names. For example, the Japanese will say to travelers, “Go straight down to the corner. Turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market. The post office is across from the bus stop.” People in Los Angeles, the US, have no idea of distance on the map: they measure distance by time, not miles. “How far away is the post office?” you ask. “Oh,” they answer, “it’s about five minutes from here.” You don’t understand completely, “Yes, but how many miles away is it, please?” To this question you won’t get an answer, because most probably they don’t know it themselves. People in Greece sometimes do not even try to give directions because tourists seldom understand the Greek language. Instead, a Greek will often say, “Follow me.” Then he’ll lead you through the streets of the city to the post office. Sometimes a person doesn’t know the answer to your question. What happens in the situation? A New Yorker might say, “Sorry, I have no idea.” But in Yucatan, Mexico, no one answers “I don’t know.” People there believe that “I don’t” is impolite. They usually give an answer, but often a wrong one. So a tourist can get lost very easily in Yucatan! However, one thing will help you everywhere in the world. It’s body language. 8. Which of the following is probably an example of Japanese directions? A. “The post office is at Street Kamira.” B “Turn right at the hospital and go past a school.” C. “The post office is about five minutes from here.” D. “Go south two miles. Turn west and then go another mile.” 9. Why don’t people in Los Angeles give directions in miles? A. They prefer to lead you the way. B. They prefer to use body language. C. They often have no idea of distance measured by miles. D. They use landmarks in their directions instead of distance. 10. How do Greeks give directions? A. Using street names. B. Using landmarks. C. Leading people the way. D. Giving people a wrong direction. 11. What will probably be talked about next Paragraph? A. The importance of a map. B. The situation in London. C. Different languages in Japan. D. The use of body language. D Over the last seven years, most states have banned texting by drivers, and public service campaigns have tried a wide range of methods to persuade people to put down their phones when they are behind the wheel. Yet the problem, by just about any measure, appears to be getting worse. Americans are still texting while driving, as well as using social networks and taking photos. Road accidents, which had fallen for years, are now rising sharply. That is partly because people are driving more, but Mark Rosekind, the chief of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, said distracted（分心）driving was "only increasing, unfortunately." "Big change requires big ideas." he said in a speech last month, referring broadly to the need to improve road safety. So to try to change a distinctly modern behavior, lawmakers and public health experts are reaching back to an old approach: They want to treat distracted driving like drunk driving. An idea from lawmakers in New York is to give police officers a new device called the Textalyzer. It would work like this: An officer arriving at the scene of a crash could ask for the phones of the drivers and use the Textalyzer to check in the operating system for recent activity. The technology could determine whether a driver had just texted, emailed or done anything else that is not allowed under New York's hands-free driving laws. "We need something on the books that can change people's behavior,” said Félix W. Ortiz, who pushed for the state's 2001 ban on hand-held devices by drivers. If the Textalyzer bill becomes law, he said, "people are going to be more afraid to put their hands on the cell phone." 12. Which of the following best describes the ban on drivers' texting in the US? A. Ineffective. B. Unnecessary. C. Inconsistent. D. Unfair. 13. What can the Textalyzer help a police officer find out? A. Where a driver came from. B. Whether a driver used their phone. C. How fast a driver was going. D. When a driver arrived at the scene. 14. What does the underlined word "something" in the last paragraph refer to? A. Advice. B. Data. C. Tests. D. Laws. 15. What is a suitable title for the text? A. To Drive or Not to Drive? Think Before You Start B. Texting and Driving? Watch Out for the Textalyzer C. New York Banning Hand-Held Devices by Drivers. D. The Next Generation Cell Phone: The Textalyzer. 第二节（本题共5小题，每小题2.5分，共12.5分。 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。） Do you ever look at yourself in the mirror and not like what you see?

Here are some tips on how to feel better about yourself and begin your path to self- acceptance. ▲Use the power of positive self-talk.
