I’ve been having trouble concentrating on one thing.It made school difficult for me.When everyone else in the class was focusing on tasks,I could not.
In my first literature class,Mrs.Smith asked us to read a story and then write on it,all within 45 minutes.I raised my hand right away and said,“Mrs.Smith,you see,the doctor said I have attention problems.I might not be able to do it.”She glanced down at me through her glasses,“You are not different from your classmates,young man.”
I tried,but I didn’t finish the reading when the bell rang.I had to take it home.
In the quietness of my bedroom,the story suddenly all became clear to me.It was about a blind person,Louis Braille.He lived in a time when the blind couldn’t get much education.But Louis didn’t give up.Instead,he invented a reading system of raised dots (点),which opened up a whole new world of knowledge to the blind.
Wasn’t I the “blind” in my class,being made to learn like the “sighted” students?My thoughts spilled out and my pen started to dance.I completed the task within 40 minutes.Indeed,I was not different from others;I just needed a quieter place.If Louis could find his way out of his problems,why should I ever give up?
I didn’t expect anything when I handed in my paper to Mrs.Smith,so it was quite a surprise when it came back to me the next day—with an “A” on it.At the bottom of the paper were these words:“See what you can do when you keep trying?”
Inspired and touched,I began to keep trying hard in my study and struggled against attention problems.I believe one can find his way out of difficulty with determination (决心) and efforts.
4.Why didn’t the author finish his reading in class?
A.He missed several classes before.
B.He was not a bit interested in literature.
C.He was unable to concentrate on his task.
D.He was used to doing his homework at home.

A.He was poor.
B.He was well-educated.
C.He was short-sighted.
D.He was very creative.
6.What kind of teacher is Mrs.Smith according to the text?
A.Impatient. B.Encouraging.
C.Disappointing. D.Careless.
7.What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A.You can never be too old to learn.
B.Do not judge a book by its cover.
C.One good turn deserves another.
D.Where there is a will,there is a way.
C
Housing officials say that lately they are noticing something different:students seem to lack the will,and the skill,to address ordinary conflicts.“We have students who are mad at each other and they text each other in the same room,” says a teacher.“So many of our conflicts are because kids don’t know how to tackle a problem by formal discussion.”
And as any pop psychologist will tell you,bottled emotions lead to silent discontent that can boil over into frustration and anger.At the University of Florida,emotional conflicts occur about once a week,the university’s director of housing education says.“Over the past five years,roommate conflicts have increased.The students don’t have the person-to-person discussions and they don’t know how to handle them.” The problem is most dramatic among freshmen;housing professionals say they see improvement as students move toward graduation,but some never seem to catch on,and they worry about how such students will deal with conflicts after college.
Administrators guess that reliance on cell phones and the Internet may have made it easier for young people to avoid uncomfortable encounters.Why express anger in person when you can vent in a text?“Things are posted on someone’s wall on Meta like:Oh,my roommate kept me up all night studying,” says Dana Pysz,an assistant director at the University of California,Los Angeles.“It’s a different way to express their conflict to each other,consequently creating even more conflicts as complaints go public.” In recent focus groups at North Carolina State University,dorm residents said they would not even confront noisy neighbors on their floor.
Administrators point to parents who have fixed their children’s problems in their entire lives.Now in college,children lack the skills to attend to even modest conflicts.Some parents continue to interfere on campus.
8.What is the main reason for many roommate conflicts?
A.Students are not good at reaching an agreement about the problems.
B.Students are not satisfied with each other.
C.Housing directors are not responsible for them.
D.Students are not strong-willed.
9.What do we learn from the second paragraph?
A.Students,especially freshmen,should bottle up their dissatisfaction.
B.Students in Florida sit down and have a person-to-person talk once a week.
C.Not all students are able to handle conflicts by the time they graduate.
D.The number of conflicts among roommates has decreased in the past five years.
10.What is the attitude of Dana Pysz when he mentions roommates reveal their conflicts in the media?
A.Disapproval. B.Indifference.
C.Empathy. D.Desperation.
11.What should parents do according to the passage?
A.They should be involved in their children’s life on campus.
B.They should deal with their children’s problems in their whole lives.
C.They should constantly contact the administrators of the college.
D.They should teach their children the skills to tackle the conflicts.
