TheBlindSide
This is a can't-miss family movie. After all, EVERYONE seems to like inspiring family films--especially when it's based on real people. And, not surprisingly, I had a thoroughly good time watching it--though I do recommend you see it with a box of Kleenex nearby. The film is about a young man named Michael Oher--an extremely large black teenager who has bounced from home to home in the foster care system. Currently, he's in a new school and no one realizes that he has no place to live. Yet in spite of having a crack-addicted mother, a father who was killed in prison and every other reason to be an angry powder keg, he's a very gentle and sad soul---who is also enormous and has amazing potential to play football. A nosy but very nice lady (Sandra Bullock) convinces her husband (Tim McGraw) to bring Michael home...at least for the night. But this one night turns into a permanent living situation and he becomes an important part of the family. However, despite this new living arrangement working out well, Michael is so far behind in school and his GPA so low that he hasn't a prayer to play football in college. That's because although many schools are now offering him athletic scholarships, his GPA is too low to allow him to accept these offers. So, with his new family's help, perhaps he can pull up those grades and have a future. This film is super-inspirational and sweet--mostly because it's true. I am sure that some poetic license was taken when making the film (I especially wonder if the little brother could be THIS precocious and adorable),but overall they did a good job of sticking reasonably close the facts. While I loved Sandra Bullock's performance (she's great as usual),I was a bit surprised that she received Oscar for it--I did see a few performances in other films that year that I thought were a bit better (such as the leading young lady in "Precious").Also, Tim McGraw, while a lesser role in the film, did a surprisingly good job--especially as he's really known as a country singer, not an actor. All around, a very good film and one that is meant to inspire.

第三部分 阅读理解(共20小题;每小题2分,满分40分)
A
It was late Wednesday night when the frightening phone call reached our home. I remember lying in my bed trying to fall asleep when I heard the phone ring. Interested in finding out who the late caller was, I sat up so that I could hear the phone call better. To my surprise, I heard my mom shout to my dad, “Get the car, Dean! Andrea has been in a car accident.”
We ran every red light on the way to the hospital and our tires screeched (发出刺耳声) around every corner. We got to the hospital but were not allowed to see her. The next morning, we were allowed to see Andrea. Until today, nobody knows exactly what happened. We only know that the car rolled on its way back from a party. The two boys in the car were killed, and Andrea was thrown out. She was badly injured.
Over the next two months, I lived more at the hospital than I did at my house. I watched as Andrea worked so hard to gain back everyday motor skills. She never once complained or pitied herself. After two weeks in the ICU and two months of the regular hospital treatment, Andrea came home. She missed several months of school, so it was hard for her to catch up. Andrea had many tasks to finish, and however hard it was, she stuck until the job was done. Though busy dealing with pain and therapy (治疗), she always found time to love and play with me, her little sister.
I‟ll never forget the influence that this incident had on my life. I admire my sister. She is perfectly normal now, despite the pins holding her leg in place. I couldn‟t ask for a better sister or a hero in my life.
56. Why did the author listen to her mother answering the phone?
A. Because she knew that something terrible had happened.
B. Because she wanted to know who called at such a late time.
C. Because she was interested in listening to others talking on the phone.
D. Because she wondered if she was wanted on the phone.
57. The first sentence in Paragraph Two shows that ______.
A. the author‟s family were very eager to see Andrea
B. the author‟s father wasn‟t good at driving
C. the family liked breaking traffic rules
D. their house was far from the hospital
58. During the treatment, Andrea ______.
A. read a lot of books
B. stopped playing with the author
C. didn‟t accept anyone‟s help
D. showed her determined spirit
59. What is the best title of the passage?
A. A miracle that happened to my sister.
B. A sudden disaster for my family.
C. My sister — the hero in my life.
D. An accident which changed my life.
B
Wilson,
At college, when I try speaking with anyone, I just feel very nervous. I have no trouble talking when I’m alone. However, when I talk with others, my voice sounds different, and sometimes there is a pause (停顿) between each word I pronounce. Sometimes I can‟t pronounce a word even with my own family members. My voice becomes deeper and sounds totally different than it usually does. Can you please give me some good advice?
John John,
If you have trouble pronouncing words, simply accept the fact. Many other readers have such experiences, and so do I. You don‟t need to get stressed about it.
You are apparently getting nervous because you feel like you are under some pressure when speaking to other people. Take your time and don‟t worry about pauses. Speak slowly, opening your mouth to enunciate your words clearly. Listen to powerful leaders on the television and note that they speak slowly and carefully and learn to master their speaking techniques.
When you speak to others in college, try to ask questions that will get the other person to talk. Listening carefully and then filling in during the conversation takes the pressure off of you and you will feel more relaxed when you talk. You make more of an impression when you are interested in what the other person is saying than when you try to lead a conversation.
Remember that the more you worry about how your voice sounds, about pronouncing words and about pauses, the worse it gets. So accept the way you speak now and relax in your conversations.
I hope these ideas can help take the pressure off of you when you talk to other people. Wilson

Some American schools pay teachers more if their students improve on tests. Now schools have begun to pay the students — in some cases, even just for coming to class.
Students at one school in New Mexico can earn up to three hundred dollars a year for good attendance (出勤). A program in New York City pays up to five hundred dollars for good attendance and high test scores. In Baltimore, Maryland, high scores on state graduation tests can be worth more than one hundred dollars. And a New Jersey school system plans to pay students fifty dollars a week to attend after-school tutoring programs. Schools that pay students can be found in more than one-fourth of the fifty states.
Robert Schaefer, a public education director, says paying may improve performance in the short term, but students develop false expectations (期盼) for the future. He sees a lack of long-term planning in these programs because of pressure on schools to raise test scores. But students say it makes school more exciting. And some teachers have reported getting more requests for extra help.
Public schools need to show improvement under the present education reform law. Low-performing schools may lose their federal money; teachers and headmasters may lose their jobs.
In 2004, the city schools in Coshocton, Ohio, started a program. They wanted to see if paying elementary school (小学) students as much as one hundred dollars would help in passing state exams. Now the results have been reported. Math scores increased, but only while students were able to get paid. And there was no evidence of higher scores in reading, social studies or science. Officials will decide later this year whether to continue the program. They don‟t want students to get the idea that money is the only reward for their studies.
65. Schools are paying their students mainly for the purpose of ______.
A. getting students interested in their studies
B. earning more money for their teachers
C. encouraging students to work for a better future
D. trying to improve their performance in school
66. What attitude does Robert Schaefer show towards the program of paying students?
A. Supportive. B. Not clear.
C. Negative. D. Interested.
67. According to students, being paid for their performance _____.
A. increases their confidence
B. makes study at school more interesting
C. improves the relationship between them and their teachers
D. makes them like after-school tutoring programs more
68. According to the last paragraph, paying students is harmful in a way because ____.
A. it may send a message that money is the only reward for studying
B. it may make students lose interest in their studies in the long term

[A Whole New World]
[Aladdin:] I can show you the world Shining, shimmering, splendid Tell me, princess, now when did You last let your heart decide?
[Jasmine:] Unbelievable sights Indescribable feeling
Soaring, tumbling, freewheeling Through an endless diamond sky A whole new world
[Aladdin:] Don't you dare close your eyes
[Jasmine:] A hundred thousand things to see
I can open your eyes Take you wonder by wonder Over, sideways and under On a magic carpet ride A whole new world
A new fantastic point of view No one to tell us no Or where to go
Or say we're only dreaming [Jasmine:] A whole new world A dazzling place I never knew But when I'm way up here It's crystal clear
That now I'm in a whole new world with you
[Aladdin:] Now I'm in a whole new world with you
[Aladdin:] Hold your breath - it gets better
[Jasmine:] I'm like a shooting star I've come so far
I can't go back to where I used to be [Aladdin:] A whole new world [Jasmine:] Every turn a surprise [Aladdin:] With new horizons to pursue [Jasmine:] Every moment red-letter [Both:] I'll chase them anywhere There's time to spare
Let me share this whole new world with you
A whole new world That's where we'll be [Aladdin:] A thrilling chase [Jasmine:] A wondrous place [Both:] For you and me
[Because You Loved]
歌词
For all those times you stood by me For all the truth that you made me see For all the joy you brought to my life For all the wrong that you made right For every dream you made come true For all the love I found in you I'll be forever thankful baby You're the one who held me up Never let me fall
You're the one who saw me through through it all
You gave me wings and made me fly
You touched my hand I could touch the sky I lost my faith, you gave it back to me You said no star was out of reach You stood by me and I stood tall I had your love I had it all
I'm grateful for each day you gave me Maybe I don't know that much But I know this much is true
I was blessed because I was loved by you
You were my strength when I was weak You were always there for me You were my voice when I couldn't speak The tender wind that carried me
You were my eyes when I couldn't see A light in the dark shining your love into my life You saw the best there was in me Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You've been my inspiration
Through the lies you were the truth
You gave me faith 'coz you believed My world is a better place because of you I'm everything I am Because you loved me
歌词大意
I'm everything I am Because you loved me
曾几何时,你总是站在我身旁,你告诉我人生的道理,你为我的生命带来欢乐,你总能帮我收拾残局,你让我的梦想得以实现,你对我的爱我永远心存感激。我的世界因为你而更精彩,正是你往日的爱造就了今天的我。
