檢測(cè)題28. 閱讀理解AHispanic Heritage Month(拉丁文化月)is the period when people recognize the contributions of Hispanic Americans to the United States and celebrate Hispanic culture. Hispanic Heritage Week was approved by President Lyndon Johnson in 1968 and was expanded by President Ronald Reagan in 1988 to cover a 30-day period starting on September 15 and ending on October 15. The law came into force on August 17, 1988.September 15 was chosen as the starting point for the celebration because it is the anniversary of independence of five Latin American countries: Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras and Nicaragua. They all declared independence in 1821. In addition, Mexico, Chile and Belize celebrate their independence days on September 16, September 17 and September 18.Hispanic Heritage Month also celebrates the long and important presence of Hispanic Americans in North America. A map of late 18th century North America shows this presence, from San Francisco to Florida. Spanish explorers traveled further north along the Pacific Coast to Canada in 1774 and by the late 18th century they had established a military post on Vancouver Island, 350 miles north of Seattle. The Spanish sailed up the Atlantic Coast through the Chesapeake Bay in 1526, then called the Bahia de Santa Maria, about 80 years before the romanticized English encounter with Pocahontas. In the 1520s Spanish navigators also explored as far north as Cape Cod, Massachusetts, and the present site of Bangor, Maine. The Spanish settled in the southwest of North America in the 16th century and officially founded Santa Fe, New Mexico in 1610.About 47 million people in the United States are Hispanic Americans. Their families come from countries where people speak Spanish.Here are some ways you can take part in this special month.Move Your FeetMusic is a big part of Hispanic life. People dont just listen.

According to statistics, we know that more than half of the 539 students came alone. Chen Jining, president of Tsinghua University, encouraged them to“start this new adventure by standing on your own two feet”.To help freshmen grow up, some universities have thought of new methods. At Tsinghua, for example, freshmen need to register and find their dormitory by themselves. The process requires two to three hours, during which volunteers take parents on a tour of the campus. At Zhejiang University, a banner hanging in the information center says“Parents let go please; let us guide your children. ”“Often parents like to do things or make decisions for their children. In their eyes, children never grow up, ”said Lu Guodong, dean(系主任)of undergraduate studies at Zhejiang University. “But at university, growing up is the goal for all students. Growing up is the biggest success. In China, students grow up too slowly as parents are always in charge. Students never think about what path they should take and why, ”he said.Zhang Yanxue, a senior student studying Chinese language and literature at the Communication University of China, is president of the Self-improvement Society. Although most students can finish the registration process by themselves, their parents usually prefer accompanying them to the university. “This is the third time Ive welcomed freshmen and I didnt see much change in that regard, ”Zhang said. “The number of students who came alone is the same as in previous years. ”Sometimes, however, the distance between university and home is so great that many parents are too worried to let their children travel alone. To reassure parents, Renmin University of China introduced a new method. It asks senior students to return to their hometown and accompany freshmen back to the campus. This helps freshmen get used to living independently.“Students should have an independent character and a dream. Learning how to use that independent character to achieve their dreams and finish tasks assigned by the country is very important, ”said Tsinghua University President Chen.【文章大意】9月第一周, 各大高校已陸續(xù)進(jìn)入開(kāi)學(xué)季。近日, 一些提倡新生獨(dú)立報(bào)到的舉措引發(fā)公眾熱議。有人認(rèn)為這是新生學(xué)習(xí)獨(dú)立的第一步, 很有教育意義。5.

I did it. ”Afterwards, he collected some ballpoint pens, 4to do the same. Hard though he tried, the ballpoint pens just lay5. He turned to me for help. Noticing they had either sharp or round ends, I said6, “Mummy cant help you. ”To my surprise, he wouldnt listen and continued trying. . . I was dumbfounded by his persistence.My sons behaviour reminded me of George who was always7in his work and rarely talked to anyone. To him, 8, there was no such thing called weekends or holidays. Our boss praised9about him and10us to look up to him as a role model.One day I met George. “Gonna work late again tonight? ”“Probably I cant leave till midnight, ”he said.“How many hours have you put in here each week, eighty or ninety? ”“11. ”“Dont you have time to be with your family at all? ”He shook his head slowly and12a sigh. “Its not what I wanted. But I have worked on it for so long. Its much too13to even think about letting go. ”A year later I resigned. The14thing I heard about him was that his wife divorced him. Since then Ive never seen him. But occasionally his aged15would come to my mind.Until that day, 16knowing why the ballpoint pens couldnt stand up, the two-year-old son had17the impossibility after many failures. He put aside all the ballpoint pens and kept only those marker-pens for his“game”. 18, he already learned to let go of his previous19attempts.In our daily life, many headaches can be avoided if we know how to20them and then decisively let them go immediately.【文章大意】作者自小就被父母和老師教育: 做任何事都要執(zhí)著, 但一次兩歲的兒子試圖將圓珠筆豎起來(lái), 結(jié)果卻沒(méi)能成功, 這讓她想起一個(gè)名叫George的朋友, 他是個(gè)工作狂, 心中只有工作, 沒(méi)有家人, 結(jié)果妻子與他離婚。這讓作者意識(shí)到生活中有許多自己不能做的事, 該放手時(shí)就放手, 這樣生活才能有樂(lè)趣。作者欣慰地看到自己的兒子在玩筆的游戲中已經(jīng)學(xué)會(huì)了這一點(diǎn)。1.
