　　As the world around them is changing， teenagers continue to need guidance and support from both parents.Studies show that teens who have an active relationship with their fathers are less likely to involve （牽涉） themselves in dangerous behaviors and more likely to succeed in school and develop higher self-worth， because their fathers go beyond social expectations to devote attention to them.
Peer （同齡人） pressure has always been a big part of the teens’ experience.Even the best father can’t completely protect their kids from the growing influence of their peer group.However， studies show that teenagers whose fathers focus on their lives are more likely to resist （抵抗） the more bad effects of peer pressure， taking drugs， for example.
Teens may not like to admit it， but they are watching their parents closely and often follow their example.An interesting finding explains just how important parents are， especially Dad.Swiss researchers discovered that if Dad attends church， even though Mom doesn’t， 44 percent of the kids are still more likely to keep going to church as adults.But if Mom goes regularly and Dad never shows up， only 2 percent of the kids continue to attend.
Teenagers face a lot of difficult choices， especially in their late teens.Fathers don’t get to make those choices for them， but they can be influenced.For example， teenagers can learn a lot from their parents’ concern on what to do when they finish high school.Should they go directly to college and， if so， where？ Should they consider going to trade schools， joining the army or looking for a job？ A father’s guidance brings a long-term perspective that teens often lack to these important decisions.
1.What are teenagers without fathers’ focus likely to do？
A.To have higher self-worth.
B.To experience some dangerous things.
C.To become the best students in school.
D.To resist all bad effects of peer pressure.
2.What does the third paragraph tell us？
A.More teenagers pay no attention to their parents.
B.Teenagers often treat their fathers as role models.
C.Teenagers never attend church with their mothers.
D.Fewer teenagers like to attend church with their fathers.
3.Which of the following can replace the underlined word “perspective” in the last paragraph？
A.point of view B.job
C.school D.concern
4.What can we learn from the text？
A.Fathers should make choices for teenagers directly.
B.Teenagers care less about what their parents do.
C.Mothers have no effect on their children’s lives.
D.Teenagers are greatly influenced by their fathers.

　　Lovers of language and a little friendly competition have played the game of Scrabble （拼字游戲） for generations， but this best-selling board game has a lesser-known history， which began in our own backyard.
At the Queens Library at Fresh Meadows， a neighbourhood in New York City， three friends meet weekly.Lynne Sherman， Pauline Bekele and Mona Fabricant first got to know each other in retirement over a game of Scrabble.They’ve kept their relationships for years thanks to meetings with the library’s Scrabble Club.
Their friendly competitions take place just a few neighbourhoods away from a Scrabble landmark.Early versions of the game were first played in the social room at the Community United Methodist Church in Jackson Heights， a neighbourhood in the northwestern corner of Queens.Standing at that place is a Scrabble-style street sign with letters showing points， just like in the game.
“Only people who know about the game of Scrabble are going to know at once what it is， and that’s why it’s my favourite sign， because it’s unique，” said Jason D.Antos， the executive director of the Queens Historical Society.
A game of strategy requiring spelling skills， a bit of math and the luck of the draw， Scrabble has left its mark.But who is the mastermind behind the beloved board game？
Antos said the creator was Alfred Mosher Butts， a local man of Jackson Heights who loved mind games.Butts came up with the idea for the game during the Great Depression， when he was a jobless architect living in a fifth-floor walk-up.Wanting to put some bread on the table， he turned his attention to the game.The rights to the game were later bought in 1948 by James Brunot， a retired director of the War Relief Control Board.It was Brunot who gave the game its popular name， Scrabble.
Today， Scrabble is played in English from India to Senegal and is sold in more than 30 languages.Nigeria often wins international competitions.From a competitive sport to a mind-expanding （拓展思維的） exercise， the game means different things to different people.
Back at the library， there’s one reason above all to play Scrabble.
“Just — it’s fun，” Sherman said.
5.What can we learn about the game of Scrabble from Paragraph 2？
A.It is a favourite of the elderly.
B.It serves as a bridge of friendship.
C.It makes the Queens Library well-known.
D.It encourages different styles of board games.
6.What makes the street sign unique according to Antos？
A.It was designed by him.
B.It stands in the heart of Queens.
C.It is connected to Scrabble.
D.It symbolizes friendly competitions.
7.Why did Butts begin to study the game？
A.To pass the time.
B.To make a living.
C.To challenge Brunot’s invention.
D.To get attention from the public.
8.What is the best title for the text？
A.Scrabble： Building Words， Building Connections
B.Scrabble： Where Language， Strategy， and Luck Meet
C.Jackson Heights’ Gift to the Elderly： The Game of Scrabble
D.From Jackson Heights to the World： The Journey of Scrabble

　　閱讀下面材料，根據其內容和所給段落開頭語續寫兩段，使之構成一篇完整的短文。
　　When I was in seventh grade， my parents paid a tutor （家庭教師） forty dollars a week for her coming to my house and helping me with math.It ended up raising my marks from fifty to fifty-five.
I had to admit it was mainly my fault.Maybe I should have concentrated my math from the beginning.But studying math was a tough thing.Sitting on a chair to work on confusing math problems for two hours was a slow and painful process.During the process， I would fidget （坐立不安） and have many trips to the refrigerator in an attempt to get off that chair for at least five minutes.
During math tests， my teachers would always stay by my desk.My teachers and friends would frequently ask the question after tests， “How’s your math this time？” So I became extremely afraid of math.While normal people of my age were scared of some insects and adventurous travels， I feared anything to do with numbers.The thought of a teacher picking on me in class made me feel scared.The red marks on the test paper were also terrifying.
My fear of math got worse in ninth grade.Every report card I received from my new math teacher Ms Robbins had the comment to encourage me， “I’m glad to do what I can to help you.” But I couldn’t tell her the real reason why I didn’t ask for help — I didn’t want to be considered stupid.Every question I had was， in my opinion at the time， something that the whole class had understood but I.So instead， I ended up not caring about anything related to math， without working hard on math at all.And I concluded everything would work out in the end.
Eventually， my classmates and I took the final test that would lead to our graduation from middle school and stepping into high school.Days after the exam — on a rainy summer morning， Ms Robbins called me.

語篇解讀：本文是一篇說明文。文章說明了父親在孩子成長過程中影響很大，能減小孩子做危險事情的幾率，還能讓孩子在學校更容易成功和發展更高的自我價值。
1.B　推理判斷題。根據第一段中的Studies show that teens who ...develop higher self-worth可知，研究表明，與父親關系積極的青少年不太可能參與危險行為，他們更有可能在學校取得成功，并發展出更高的自我價值。因此在父愛缺失的情況下，會出現與上述相反的情形，即沒有父親的關注可能會經歷一些危險的事情。
2.B　推理判斷題。根據第三段中they are watching ...especially Dad和后面的例子可知，孩子們的行為受家長影響，尤其是父親的影響最大。由此可以推斷出，孩子們經常會效仿父親的行為，以父親為榜樣。
3.A　詞義猜測題。此處指父親的指導會給孩子帶來對這些重要決定的一個長期的看法，這些往往是孩子們缺乏的。根據畫線詞上文Should they go directly ...for a job？及本句中to these important decisions可知，畫線詞perspective指“觀點”，與point of view同義。
4.D　推理判斷題。文章說明了父親在孩子成長過程中影響很大，能減小孩子做危險事情的概率，還能讓孩子在學校更容易成功和發展更高的自我價值，孩子會效仿父親的行為，父親的觀點會有長期的影響。
語篇解讀：本文是一篇說明文。文章主要介紹了拼字游戲的歷史和現狀。
5.B　推理判斷題。根據第二段內容可知，這三位朋友每周在Queens Library見面，通過拼字游戲收獲了深厚的友誼，所以從本段中我們可以推斷出拼字游戲是友誼的橋梁。
6.C　細節理解題。根據第三段最后一句和第四段中Antos所說的話可知，在人們最先開始玩拼字游戲的地方有一個路標，這個路標具有拼字游戲風格，上面有表示分數的字母，Antos說只有了解拼字游戲的人才會立刻知道它是什么，它很獨特。因此這個路標的獨特之處應該是指具有拼字游戲的風格。
7.B　細節理解題。根據第六段第二、三句可知，Butts是建筑師，大蕭條時期他失業在家，為了謀生，他開始鉆研拼字游戲。
8.D　標題歸納題。拼字游戲在全球各地廣為流行，該游戲起源于紐約市皇后區的Jackson Heights社區，由該社區的建筑師Alfred Mosher Butts發明，James Brunot購買游戲的版權后，給它起名為Scrabble。D項體現了本文的主旨，突出了拼字游戲在Jackson Heights的起源及其在全球的流行，為文章最佳標題。
Ⅱ.
語篇解讀：本文是一篇說明文。文章介紹了四種幫助孩子克服恐懼的辦法。
9.C　根據空前一句We have to know how to help kids not be afraid.及下文提到的四條建議可知，設空處為承上啟下的句子。因此，C項符合語境。
10.D　根據本段小標題Pay attention to their fears.和空后一句At the same time， come beside them in dealing with fears.可知，D項符合語境。
11.G　根據空后的it doesn’t mean it’s silly to them可推斷，設空處內容應該和愚蠢的事情相關。因此，G項符合語境。
12.F　根據空后的but it will also build confidence and a connection between you可知，F項符合語境。
13.A　根據本段內容，尤其是You need to stay patient as long as it takes.可知，A項適合作本段的小標題。

　　With worry and uncertainty， I entered her office.After asking me to sit down， she told me that I failed the math test.And she suggested that I should spend another year in middle school if I wanted to be admitted to a relatively good high school.I burst into tears when I heard the news.Seeing that， Ms Robbins came to comfort and encourage me， and said she’d like to offer any help if necessary.After leaving her office， I was anxious， wondering how to tell the bad news to my parents.
After I took the courage to tell my parents the bad news， they were silent.My body shook， waiting for their blame.However， they encouraged me to have another try in ninth grade.It was then that I determined to take math seriously.The following day， I turned to Ms Robbins for help and told her about my determination.Ms Robbins was happy that I finally decided to work hard on math.Thanks to her patient guidance， I made great progress and was not afraid of math any more.Finally， I made my way to a good high school and a university.Now I’m a doctor and I’m proud of myself.

Mama and Her Bank Account①
[1]Every Saturday night Mama would sit down by the kitchen table and count out② the money Papa had brought home.
　　“For the rent③.” Mama would count out the big silver pieces.
　　“For the groceries④.” Another group of coins.
　　“I’ll need a notebook.” That would be my sister Christine， my brother Nels or me.
　　Mama would put one or two coins to the side.We would watch with anxious interest.At last， Papa would ask， “Is that all？” And when Mama nodded， we could relax⑤ a little.Mama would look up and smile， “Good.We do not have to go to the Bank.” We were all so proud of⑥ Mama’s Bank Account.It gave us such a warm， secure⑦ feeling.
When Nels graduated⑧ from grammar school， he wanted to go on to high school.“It will cost a little money，” he said.
　　Eagerly we gathered⑨ around the table.I took down a box and laid⑩ it carefully in front of Mama.This was the “Little Bank”.[2]It was used for sudden emergencies ， such as the time when Christine broke her arm and had to be taken to a doctor.
　　[1]would do表示“過去常常做”。sit， count out作并列謂語，Papa had brought home為省略了關系代詞which/that的定語從句，修飾先行詞the money。
　　[2]when引導定語從句，修飾先行詞the time。
　　Nels listed the costs of the things he would need.Mama counted out the money in the Little Bank.There was not enough.“We do not want to go to the Bank，” she reminded.We all shook our heads .
　　“I will work in Dillon’s grocery after school，” Nels volunteered .
　　Mama gave him a bright smile and wrote down a number.“That’s not enough，” Papa said.Then he took his pipe out of his mouth and looked at it for a long time.“I will give up smoking，” he said suddenly.

　　Mama reached across the table and touched Papa’s arm.Then she wrote down another figure .

媽媽的銀行賬戶
　　每個星期六的晚上，媽媽都會坐在餐桌旁，清點爸爸帶回家的錢。
　　“這些付房租。” 媽媽會把大面額的銀幣點出來。
“這些買生活用品。”又是一摞硬幣。
“我需要一個筆記本。”說這話的，通常是我的妹妹克里斯蒂娜，或是我的哥哥內爾斯，要不就是我。
媽媽聽完會拿出一兩個硬幣到一旁。我們幾個都會緊張地看著。最后，爸爸會問：“就這些了？”媽媽點點頭，我們幾個都稍稍松了口氣。媽媽會抬起頭，微笑著說：“太好了，我們不用去銀行啦。”我們所有人都為媽媽的銀行賬戶感到十分自豪，它讓我們感到如此溫暖、踏實。
　　從文法學校畢業后，內爾斯想繼續讀高中，“上學要花點兒錢。”他說。
于是一家人又急切地圍到了餐桌旁。我取下一個盒子，小心翼翼地放在媽媽面前。這個小盒子是我們的“小金庫”。它是用來應對家中不時之需的，比如有一回，克里斯蒂娜摔斷了胳膊，必須得送醫院。
內爾斯先列出了他所需物品的開支清單。媽媽清點了“小金庫”里所有的錢——還是不夠。“大家都不想動銀行里的存款吧！”媽媽提醒。 我們幾個都搖了搖頭。
　　“我放學后可以去狄龍的雜貨店打工。”內爾斯自告奮勇地說。
　　媽媽給了哥哥一個燦爛的笑容，然后記下一個數字。“還是不夠，”爸爸說。然后他取下了嘴里的煙斗，對著它端詳了半晌。“我把煙戒了，”他冷不丁地說。
　　媽媽將手伸到餐桌對面，碰了下爸爸的胳膊。然后她記下了另一個數字。
　　“我每周五晚上可以去照看埃爾溫頓家的孩子，”我說，“克里斯蒂娜可以幫我。”
　　現在錢終于湊足了。大家都很開心，因為我們不用去城里從媽媽的銀行賬戶里取錢了。
　　那一年，“小金庫”應付了很多事：克里斯蒂娜參加學校演出的裙子、我小妹妹達格瑪的手術……無論發生什么事，我們總是知道我們還有“銀行”可以依靠。
　　一轉眼二十年過去了。
　　去年，我賣出了我的第一部小說。拿到支票后，我迫不及待地沖到媽媽家里，把支票放到她的膝上。“給您的，”我說，“存到您的銀行賬戶里吧！”
　　我第一次發現，爸爸媽媽看起來蒼老了很多。爸爸似乎變矮了，而媽媽如今已是滿頭銀發。
　　“明天，”我給媽媽說，“您一定要把這筆錢存到銀行里。”
　　“你會跟我一塊兒去的吧，凱特琳？”
　　“沒必要啦，您把支票交給出納員就行。他會把錢存入您的賬戶的。”
　　媽媽看著我。“根本就沒有銀行賬戶，”她說，“我這輩子壓根都沒踏進過銀行一步。”
　　那一刻，我沒有說什么，也什么都說不出來，媽媽認真地說：“讓小孩子感到害怕，沒有安全感，不是一件好事。”

Mama and Her Bank Account①
[1]Every Saturday night Mama would sit down by the kitchen table
and count out② the money Papa had brought home.
　　“For the rent③.” Mama would count out the big silver pieces.
　　“For the groceries④.” Another group of coins.
　　“I’ll need a notebook.” That would be my sister Christine， my
brother Nels or me.
　　Mama would put one or two coins to the side.We would watch with
anxious interest.At last， Papa would ask， “Is that all？” And when
Mama nodded， we could relax⑤ a little.Mama would look up and
smile， “Good.We do not have to go to the Bank.” We were all so
proud of⑥ Mama’s Bank Account.It gave us such a warm， secure⑦
feeling.
When Nels graduated⑧ from grammar school， he wanted to go on to
high school.“It will cost a little money，” he said.
　　Eagerly we gathered⑨ around the table.I took down a box and laid⑩
it carefully in front of Mama.This was the “Little Bank”.[2]It was
used for sudden emergencies ， such as the time when Christine broke
her arm and had to be taken to a doctor.
　　[1]would do表示“過去常常做”。sit， count out作并列謂語，
Papa had brought home為省略了關系代詞which/that的定語從句，修飾
先行詞the money。
　　[2]when引導定語從句，修飾先行詞the time。
　　Nels listed the costs of the things he would need.Mama counted out
the money in the Little Bank.There was not enough.“We do not want to
go to the Bank，” she reminded.We all shook our heads .
　　“I will work in Dillon’s grocery after school，” Nels volunteered
.
　　Mama gave him a bright smile and wrote down a
number.“That’s not enough，” Papa said.Then he took his pipe out
of his mouth and looked at it for a long time.“I will give up smoking，”
he said suddenly.
　　Mama reached across the table and touched Papa’s arm.Then she
wrote down another figure .
　　“I will look after the Elvington children every Friday night，” I
said.“Christine can help me.”
　　Now there was enough money.[3]We all felt very good because we
did not have to go downtown and draw money out of Mama’s Bank
Account.
　　So many things came out of the Little Bank that year： Christine’s
dress for the school play， my little sister Dagmar’s
operation ...[4]Whatever happened， we always knew we still had the
Bank to depend upon .
　　[3]句中because引導原因狀語從句，從句中and連接兩個并列
謂語。
　　[4]句中Whatever引導讓步狀語從句。we still had the Bank
to depend upon是省略了引導詞that的賓語從句。
　　That was twenty years ago.
　　Last year I sold my first story.When the check came， I hurried
over to Mama’s and put it in her lap .“For you，” I said， “to put
in your Bank Account.”
　　[5]I noticed for the first time how old Mama and Papa looked.Papa
seemed shorter， and Mama’s hair was silver now.
　　“Tomorrow，” I told Mama， “you must take it to the Bank.”
　　“You will go with me， Katrin？”
　　“That won’t be necessary.Just hand it to the teller.He’ll pay it
into your account .”
　　Mama looked at me.“There is no account，” she said.“In all my
life， I’ve never been inside a bank.”
　　And when I didn’t — couldn’t — answer， Mama said
seriously， [6]“It is not good for little ones to be afraid — to not feel
secure.”
　　[5]how old Mama and Papa looked是賓語從句。for the first time
作時間狀語。
　　[6]It是形式主語，真正的主語是后面的動詞不定式短語to be
afraid — to not feel secure，破折號起解釋說明的作用。

媽媽的銀行賬戶
　　每個星期六的晚上，媽媽都會坐在餐桌旁，清點爸爸帶回家
的錢。
　　“這些付房租。” 媽媽會把大面額的銀幣點出來。
“這些買生活用品。”又是一摞硬幣。
“我需要一個筆記本。”說這話的，通常是我的妹妹克里斯蒂
娜，或是我的哥哥內爾斯，要不就是我。
媽媽聽完會拿出一兩個硬幣到一旁。我們幾個都會緊張地看著。
最后，爸爸會問：“就這些了？”媽媽點點頭，我們幾個都稍稍松了
口氣。媽媽會抬起頭，微笑著說：“太好了，我們不用去銀行啦。”
我們所有人都為媽媽的銀行賬戶感到十分自豪，它讓我們感到如此溫
暖、踏實。
從文法學校畢業后，內爾斯想繼續讀高中，“上學要花點兒
錢。”他說。
于是一家人又急切地圍到了餐桌旁。我取下一個盒子，小心
翼翼地放在媽媽面前。這個小盒子是我們的“小金庫”。它是用
來應對家中不時之需的，比如有一回，克里斯蒂娜摔斷了胳膊，
必須得送醫院。
　　內爾斯先列出了他所需物品的開支清單。媽媽清點了“小金庫”
里所有的錢——還是不夠。“大家都不想動銀行里的存款吧！”媽媽
提醒。 我們幾個都搖了搖頭。
　　“我放學后可以去狄龍的雜貨店打工。”內爾斯自告奮勇地說。
　　媽媽給了哥哥一個燦爛的笑容，然后記下一個數字。“還是不
夠，”爸爸說。然后他取下了嘴里的煙斗，對著它端詳了半晌。“我
把煙戒了，”他冷不丁地說。
　　媽媽將手伸到餐桌對面，碰了下爸爸的胳膊。然后她記下了另一
個數字。
　　“我每周五晚上可以去照看埃爾溫頓家的孩子，”我說，“克里
斯蒂娜可以幫我。”
　　現在錢終于湊足了。大家都很開心，因為我們不用去城里從媽媽
的銀行賬戶里取錢了。
　　那一年，“小金庫”應付了很多事：克里斯蒂娜參加學校演出的
裙子、我小妹妹達格瑪的手術……無論發生什么事，我們總是知道我
們還有“銀行”可以依靠。
　　一轉眼二十年過去了。
　　去年，我賣出了我的第一部小說。拿到支票后，我迫不及待地沖
到媽媽家里，把支票放到她的膝上。“給您的，”我說，“存到您的
銀行賬戶里吧！”
　　我第一次發現，爸爸媽媽看起來蒼老了很多。爸爸似乎變矮了，
而媽媽如今已是滿頭銀發。
　　“明天，”我給媽媽說，“您一定要把這筆錢存到銀行里。”
　　“你會跟我一塊兒去的吧，凱特琳？”
　　“沒必要啦，您把支票交給出納員就行。他會把錢存入您的賬戶
的。”
　　媽媽看著我。“根本就沒有銀行賬戶，”她說，“我這輩子壓根
都沒踏進過銀行一步。”
　　那一刻，我沒有說什么，也什么都說不出來，媽媽認真地說：
“讓小孩子感到害怕，沒有安全感，不是一件好．事．。”

Ⅰ.閱讀理解

　　As the world around them is changing， teenagers continue to need
guidance and support from both parents.Studies show that teens who have
an active relationship with their fathers are less likely to involve （牽涉）
themselves in dangerous behaviors and more likely to succeed in school
and develop higher self-worth， because their fathers go beyond social
expectations to devote attention to them.
Peer （同齡人） pressure has always been a big part of the teens’
experience.Even the best father can’t completely protect their kids from
the growing influence of their peer group.However， studies show that
teenagers whose fathers focus on their lives are more likely to resist （抵
抗） the more bad effects of peer pressure， taking drugs， for example.
Teens may not like to admit it， but they are watching their parents
closely and often follow their example.An interesting finding explains just
how important parents are， especially Dad.Swiss researchers discovered
that if Dad attends church， even though Mom doesn’t， 44 percent of
the kids are still more likely to keep going to church as adults.But if Mom
goes regularly and Dad never shows up， only 2 percent of the kids
continue to attend.
Teenagers face a lot of difficult choices， especially in their late
teens.Fathers don’t get to make those choices for them， but they can be
influenced.For example， teenagers can learn a lot from their parents’
concern on what to do when they finish high school.Should they go
directly to college and， if so， where？ Should they consider going to
trade schools， joining the army or looking for a job？ A father’s
guidance brings a long-term perspective that teens often lack to these
important decisions.
語篇解讀：本文是一篇說明文。文章說明了父親在孩子成長過程中
影響很大，能減小孩子做危險事情的幾率，還能讓孩子在學校更容
易成功和發展更高的自我價值。
1. What are teenagers without fathers’ focus likely to do？
A. To have higher self-worth.
B. To experience some dangerous things.
C. To become the best students in school.
D. To resist all bad effects of peer pressure.
語篇解讀：本文是一篇說明文。文章說明了父親在孩子成長過程中
影響很大，能減小孩子做危險事情的幾率，還能讓孩子在學校更容
易成功和發展更高的自我價值。
解析： 　推理判斷題。根據第一段中的Studies show that teens
who ...develop higher self-worth可知，研究表明，與父親關系積極
的青少年不太可能參與危險行為，他們更有可能在學校取得成功，
并發展出更高的自我價值。因此在父愛缺失的情況下，會出現與上
述相反的情形，即沒有父親的關注可能會經歷一些危險的事情。
2. What does the third paragraph tell us？
A. More teenagers pay no attention to their parents.
B. Teenagers often treat their fathers as role models.
C. Teenagers never attend church with their mothers.
D. Fewer teenagers like to attend church with their fathers.
解析： 　推理判斷題。根據第三段中they are
watching ...especially Dad和后面的例子可知，孩子們的行為受家
長影響，尤其是父親的影響最大。由此可以推斷出，孩子們經常會
效仿父親的行為，以父親為榜樣。
3. Which of the following can replace the underlined word
“perspective” in the last paragraph？
A. point of view B. job
C. school D. concern
解析： 　詞義猜測題。此處指父親的指導會給孩子帶來對這
些重要決定的一個長期的看法，這些往往是孩子們缺乏的。根
據畫線詞上文Should they go directly ...for a job？及本句中to
these important decisions可知，畫線詞perspective指“觀
點”，與point of view同義。
4. What can we learn from the text？
A. Fathers should make choices for teenagers directly.
B. Teenagers care less about what their parents do.
C. Mothers have no effect on their children’s lives.
D. Teenagers are greatly influenced by their fathers.
解析： 　推理判斷題。文章說明了父親在孩子成長過程中影響很
大，能減小孩子做危險事情的概率，還能讓孩子在學校更容易成功
和發展更高的自我價值，孩子會效仿父親的行為，父親的觀點會有
長期的影響。

　　Lovers of language and a little friendly competition have played the
game of Scrabble （拼字游戲） for generations， but this best-selling
board game has a lesser-known history， which began in our own
backyard.
At the Queens Library at Fresh Meadows， a neighbourhood in New
York City， three friends meet weekly.Lynne Sherman， Pauline Bekele
and Mona Fabricant first got to know each other in retirement over a game
of Scrabble.They’ve kept their relationships for years thanks to meetings
with the library’s Scrabble Club.
Their friendly competitions take place just a few neighbourhoods
away from a Scrabble landmark.Early versions of the game were first
played in the social room at the Community United Methodist Church in
Jackson Heights， a neighbourhood in the northwestern corner of
Queens.Standing at that place is a Scrabble-style street sign with letters
showing points， just like in the game.
“Only people who know about the game of Scrabble are going to
know at once what it is， and that’s why it’s my favourite sign，
because it’s unique，” said Jason D. Antos， the executive director of
the Queens Historical Society.
A game of strategy requiring spelling skills， a bit of math and the
luck of the draw， Scrabble has left its mark.But who is the mastermind
behind the beloved board game？
Antos said the creator was Alfred Mosher Butts， a local man of
Jackson Heights who loved mind games.Butts came up with the idea for
the game during the Great Depression， when he was a jobless architect
living in a fifth-floor walk-up.Wanting to put some bread on the table， he
turned his attention to the game.The rights to the game were later bought
in 1948 by James Brunot， a retired director of the War Relief Control
Board.It was Brunot who gave the game its popular name， Scrabble.
Today， Scrabble is played in English from India to Senegal and is
sold in more than 30 languages.Nigeria often wins international
competitions.From a competitive sport to a mind-expanding （拓展思維
的） exercise， the game means different things to different people.
Back at the library， there’s one reason above all to play Scrabble.
“Just — it’s fun，” Sherman said.

5. What can we learn about the game of Scrabble from Paragraph 2？
A. It is a favourite of the elderly.
B. It serves as a bridge of friendship.
C. It makes the Queens Library well-known.
D. It encourages different styles of board games.
解析： 　推理判斷題。根據第二段內容可知，這三位朋友每周在
Queens Library見面，通過拼字游戲收獲了深厚的友誼，所以從本
段中我們可以推斷出拼字游戲是友誼的橋梁。
6. What makes the street sign unique according to Antos？
A. It was designed by him.
B. It stands in the heart of Queens.
C. It is connected to Scrabble.
D. It symbolizes friendly competitions.
解析： 　細節理解題。根據第三段最后一句和第四段中Antos所說
的話可知，在人們最先開始玩拼字游戲的地方有一個路標，這個路
標具有拼字游戲風格，上面有表示分數的字母，Antos說只有了解
拼字游戲的人才會立刻知道它是什么，它很獨特。因此這個路標的
獨特之處應該是指具有拼字游戲的風格。
7. Why did Butts begin to study the game？
A. To pass the time.
B. To make a living.
C. To challenge Brunot’s invention.
D. To get attention from the public.
解析： 　細節理解題。根據第六段第二、三句可知，Butts是建筑
師，大蕭條時期他失業在家，為了謀生，他開始鉆研拼字游戲。
8. What is the best title for the text？
A. Scrabble： Building Words， Building Connections
B. Scrabble： Where Language， Strategy， and Luck Meet
C. Jackson Heights’ Gift to the Elderly： The Game of Scrabble
D. From Jackson Heights to the World： The Journey of Scrabble
解析： 　標題歸納題。拼字游戲在全球各地廣為流行，該游戲起
源于紐約市皇后區的Jackson Heights社區，由該社區的建筑師
Alfred Mosher Butts發明，James Brunot購買游戲的版權后，給它起
名為Scrabble。D項體現了本文的主旨，突出了拼字游戲在Jackson
Heights的起源及其在全球的流行，為文章最佳標題。

Ⅳ.讀后續寫
　　閱讀下面材料，根據其內容和所給段落開頭語續寫兩段，使之構
成一篇完整的短文。
　　When I was in seventh grade， my parents paid a tutor （家庭教
師） forty dollars a week for her coming to my house and helping me with
math.It ended up raising my marks from fifty to fifty-five.
I had to admit it was mainly my fault.Maybe I should have
concentrated my math from the beginning.But studying math was a tough
thing.Sitting on a chair to work on confusing math problems for two hours
was a slow and painful process.During the process， I would fidget （坐
立不安） and have many trips to the refrigerator in an attempt to get off
that chair for at least five minutes.
During math tests， my teachers would always stay by my desk.My
teachers and friends would frequently ask the question after tests，
“How’s your math this time？” So I became extremely afraid of
math.While normal people of my age were scared of some insects and
adventurous travels， I feared anything to do with numbers.The thought
of a teacher picking on me in class made me feel scared.The red marks on
the test paper were also terrifying.
My fear of math got worse in ninth grade.Every report card I received
from my new math teacher Ms Robbins had the comment to encourage
me， “I’m glad to do what I can to help you.” But I couldn’t tell her
the real reason why I didn’t ask for help — I didn’t want to be
considered stupid.Every question I had was， in my opinion at the time，
something that the whole class had understood but I. So instead， I ended
up not caring about anything related to math， without working hard on
math at all.And I concluded everything would work out in the end.
Eventually， my classmates and I took the final test that would lead
to our graduation from middle school and stepping into high school.Days
after the exam — on a rainy summer morning， Ms Robbins called me.
注意：1.續寫詞數應為150左右；
2. 請按如下格式作答。
　　With worry and uncertainty， I entered her office. 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　
　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　
　
　　After I took the courage to tell my parents the bad news， they

參考范文：
With worry and uncertainty， I entered her office.After asking me to
sit down， she told me that I failed the math test.And she suggested that I
should spend another year in middle school if I wanted to be admitted to a
relatively good high school.I burst into tears when I heard the
news.Seeing that， Ms Robbins came to comfort and encourage me， and
said she’d like to offer any help if necessary.After leaving her office， I
was anxious， wondering how to tell the bad news to my parents.
After I took the courage to tell my parents the bad news， they were
silent.My body shook， waiting for their blame.However， they
encouraged me to have another try in ninth grade.It was then that I
determined to take math seriously.The following day， I turned to Ms
Robbins for help and told her about my determination.Ms Robbins was
happy that I finally decided to work hard on math.Thanks to her patient
guidance， I made great progress and was not afraid of math any
more.Finally， I made my way to a good high school and a
university.Now I’m a doctor and I’m proud of myself.
謝謝觀看！
