A man called Jamaal Allan has revealed how his name has led to him being racially stereotyped (归类) throughout his life.
Jamaal, a high school teacher who grew up in southern Oregon of the USA, revealed that most people he meets are always surprised when they discover he's white. He said that one of the most common responses to his name is “I never would've guessed your name was Jamaal". In a blog post he aired his thoughts on this, writing: “Really, are you frequently good at guessing people's names " Another reaction to his name, he said, is “you don't look like a Jamal", to which he asked in response, “And how exactly does one look like a name "
He wrote in the blog that some people, after meeting him, say “I thought you'd b..." and then pause with “a sudden realization they are on the verge of sounding racist", before finding a word such as “taller” or “older" to end the sentence with. And his name once appeared to get him selected for a random security check on a trip to London in 2002, as the others picked out by officials were called Muhammad, Abdul and Tariq. He also explained that waitresses and waiters usually hand his credit card back to a black person at his table when he's dining out.
His name, which means "beauty" in Arabic, landed him his teaching job in Iowa, though. Jamaal said, "The principal who had hired me admitted that I was lucky to have gotten the job. They had not been planning to take another student-teacher when my application showed up. But, as they scanned through it and saw a Jamaal who plays basketball and counts Muhammad Ali among his heroes, they thought they ‘could use a little diversity,'” said Jamaal.
Jamaal's dad was a fan of the Los Angeles Lakers basketball team and he was just named after one of their players, Jamaal Wilkes.

Passage B
A shop owner placed a sign above his door that said: “Puppies For Sale.” Signs like this always have a way of attracting young children, and to no surprise, a boy saw the sign and approached the owner.
“How much are you going to sell the puppies for ” he asked.
The store owner replied, “Anywhere from $30 to $50.”
The little boy pulled out some change from his pocket. “I have $2.37,” he said. “Can I please look at them ”
The shop owner smiled and whistled. A lady ran down the aisle of his shop followed by five tiny balls of fur.
One puppy was lagging considerably behind. Immediately the little boy singled out the lagging puppy and said, “What’s wrong with that little dog ”
The shop owner explained the puppy was disabled by nature and it would always be lame. The little boy became excited. “I’ll buy it.” The shop owner said, “No, you don’t want to buy that little dog. If you really want him, I’ll just give him to you.” The little boy looked straight into the store owner’s eyes, pointing his finger, and said, “I don’t want you to give him to me. That little dog is worth every bit as much as all the other dogs and I’ll pay full price. In fact, I’ll give you $2.37 now, and 50 cents a month until I have him paid for.”
The shop owner countered, “You really don’t want to buy this little dog. He is never going to be able to run and play with you like the other puppies.”
To his surprise, the little boy reached down and rolled up his pant leg to reveal a badly twisted, crippled left leg supported by a big metal brace. He looked up at the shop owner and softly replied, “Well, I don’t run so well myself, and the little puppy will need someone who understands!”

Passage C
Grandma was going to turn eighty-two on Friday. I heard Mom ordering a cake from the bakery over the phone. “Don’t put any icing on it,” she said, “Just a plain angel cake.” Angel cake with fresh strawberries was her favorite. So Mum was ready.
That afternoon when Dad came home, he showed me the phone he had bought for Grandma. “It has speed-dialing,” he said. “She won’t have to push so many buttons when she calls the doctor’s office or her sister.” Dad looked pleased. “Her fingers are so stiff with arthritis (关节炎) that the phone seems a good idea.”
But what about me Here I was with only one dollar in my pocket and one night to think of a gift. Even though Mom always insisted that “it’s the thought that counts,” I had a big problem. My mind was even more empty of ideas than my wallet was empty of money.
When I have a problem, it sometimes helps to shoot a few baskets in the driveway. Dribble, shoot, rebound.
For a while I just played without even trying to think. I began to remember back before Granddad died, when we used to visit them in Kentucky, Granddad showed me how to do a jump shot. Thinking about Granddad made me sigh. Grandma’s life was a lot happier when he was alive.Swish! I’d made two in a row.
Suddenly, I remembered a green glass dish in the shape of a leaf that Grandma used to keep on a table back in Kentucky. It was always full of those red-and-white-striped peppermint candies. I hadn’t thought of that dish for a long time. Maybe it was lost or broken when Dad rented the truck and brought Grandma and the belongings to Ohio.
Just thinking about that candy dish made me taste the peppermint slowly dissolving on my tongue. I could almost hear Grandma saying,“Help yourself to a piece of peppermint, Burt.” That voice had a smile behind it. It was a voice I hadn’t heard for a long time.
Aha! I took one last shot, then dribbled to the back door, ran up the steps two at a time, and grabbed my wallet.

Passage D
When Rachel Ratelle saw a news video of a burned koala trying to climb a tree to safety in fire-ravaged(火灾肆虐的)Australia, she decided to do something about it.
She looked up wildlife rescue and relief agencies in Australia to find out what they needed most. Besides donations, many organizations asked for hand-sewn and knitted pouches(袋子)and wraps for koalas and other animals that were burned or had lost their homes and parents in the fires.This idea attracted Ratelle, but there was just one problem.
"I'd never sewn in my life," said Ratelle, 17, a senior at Rancho Buena Vista High School in Vista, US. "Giving money seemed like something too simple. But I wanted to directly help these animals by doing something myself, so I decided to learn how to sew."
Over the next few months, Ratelle bought her own sewing machine and taught herself how to sew via videos online. Then she bought 18 yards of fabric and sewed 25 pouches of different sizes and shipped them off to Fir Australian Wildlife Needing Aid (FAWNA), one of several relief organizations that have rushed to rescue koalas, kangaroos and other species suffering from bums. A week later, she received a photo from FAWNA with a baby kangaroo in one of her larger pouches. "It made me feel like I contributed to the world and it showed how a simple act of kindness can go a long way," said Ratelle, who hopes to study biology for a future career as a nurse practitioner.
"I plan to use my new sewing skills to help animals and people devastated by natural disaster," she said.
Several craft union websites around the world have called for Australian relief by making the animal pouches. Karen Newberry and her two daughters Madison, 12 and Rochelle, 8, from San Diego also offered their help in such a way. For Newberry, "It was a big push that made us crafters, sewers realize there's something more we can do than just make things for ourselves," she said.

A. What inspired Ratelle to learn to sew.
B. What is needed to save koalas and other species.

A. People should stay united through difficult times.
B. Life is not easy for crafters and sewers in Australia.
C. It is challenging for crafters and sewers to do relief work.

Passage F
The definition of community has evolved (升华)for me from childhood to the young adult I am now. My mom was born in America but both her parents were from the Bahamas. It was their culture to take care of the elderly and the sick. And my mom has taught me to be caring to those around us because we're all a part of the "community" , an extension of family.
When I was 9 years old, my family moved to Cape Coral, Florida. Both mom and dad worked full-time, so they registered me to attend an after-school program at the Youth Center.

I would always tell what would cheer the patients up because I had built a relationship with them and their loved ones. I grew to feel the hospital was a part of my community.
After volunteering at the Youth Center and at the Hospital, I've learned that people become sort of an extended family when you care about them. Now I am more considerate of those close to me, neighbors and even strangers who share my resources.

Passage G
Most kids can walk into a library or bookstore and find hundreds of books to read. But it’s not that simple for kids who are blind. They read in a different way. Jenny Lee and other braille (盲文) transcribers take the printed words of a book and change them into a code of raised dots. Blind people can read these dots with their fingers. To know what braille feels like, take a ballpoint pen and press hard onto a piece of paper. Now turn the paper over and touch the raised dot made by the pen point.
When Lee first saw the dots of the braille alphabet, she wondered if she’d ever be able to read and write them easily. She took a class and practised hard for about six months before she passed the final exam: she had to convert 35 pages of a book into braille. Today, Lee works for a publisher. One of her jobs is to change children’s books into braille.
To do this, Lee first types the story into a computer and then uses a computer program to translate it into the braille code. Next, she looks over the translation several times to make sure it’s mistake-free. After that, a copy of the braille story is printed with a special printer. Then Lee and a proofreader work together to find and correct any mistakes. When a book is ready, many copies of it are printed. Afterwards, some are sold through websites and others are sent to libraries.
Sometimes, going over a story again and again gets tiring. That’s when Lee takes a break. Several of Jenny Lee’s co-workers, who are blind, use guide dogs. When the animals aren’t working, Lee likes spending a few minutes with them. To her, playing with dogs “is always a pick-me-up in the middle of the day”.
“I love this mission,” Lee says. “Through my brain power and my fingers, I am putting the dots into some kid’s hands.”
1. How does the writer explain what braille feels like
A. By explaining what braille words look like.
B. By describing how blind people read books.
C. By asking readers to experience it themselves.
D. By giving examples of different braille words
2. What was Lee’s first reaction to braille
A. She was excited to get a new skill.
B. She was amazed at the clever idea.
C. She realized she could teach it herself.
D. She believed it would be difficult to learn.
3. What does the underlined word “pick-me-up” in paragraph 4 most probably mean
A. A discussion to release work stress.
B. Something to improve one’s appetite.
C. Something to help restore one’s spirit.
D. A free ride accompanied with a guide dog.
4. What does Lee think of her job
A. Profitable and hopeful. B. Tiring but meaningful.
C. Relaxing and helpful. D. Boring but challenging.
Passage H
My daughter was being thrown out of the sixth grade. The teacher said, “She may not be up to what we’re trying to accomplish.” He was really saying she didn’t have the intelligence. I got mad because I knew she was smart, just as my father had known I was smart when I was failing in school. We had her tested. I decided to get myself tested as well, and found that the troubles she was having were exactly what I had had — dyslexia. By then I was a successful television writer, and had won an Emmy Award for “The Rockford Files.”
If I had known earlier that something beyond my control could explain why I was a low achiever, I may not have worked so hard in my late 20s and early 30s. I was writing and writing. I was working for no other reason than to hear people praise me, because I did badly in all my courses.
I once asked a friend who had always gotten an A, “How long did you study for this ” He said, “I didn’t. I just glanced at it.” So he must be smarter. I began to ask, “What will happen to me when I’m not good at anything ” Despite my doubts, I did become successful, and people now say to me, “So you’ve overcome dyslexia.”
No. You don’t overcome it, you learn to compensate for it. Some easy things are very hard for me. Most people who go through college read twice as fast as I do. I avoid dialing a phone if I can, because I sometimes have to try three times to get the number right.
Despite my weaknesses I view dyslexia as a gift, not a curse (诅咒). Many dyslexics are good at right-brain, abstract thought, and that’s what my kind of creative writing is. And I can write quickly, and can get up to 15 pages a day. Writing is my strength.
The real fear I have for dyslexic children is not they have to struggle in school, but that they will quit on themselves before they get out of school. Parents have to create victories for them, whether it’s music, sports or art. You can make your dyslexic child able to say, “Yeah, reading is hard. But I have other things I can do.”
1. The writer decided to get himself tested as well because he________.
A. wanted to know if they had the same problem
B. didn’t believe his daughter had the problem
C. had to take a regular medical examination
D. accepted that his daughter was not smart
2. We can learn from the second paragraph that the writer________.
A. struggled and got better grades
B. didn’t work hard when he was young
C. was praised for overcoming dyslexia
D. was thankful not knowing of dyslexia earlier
3. According to the passage, a dyslexic person________.
A. is less intelligent B. always fails in school
C. reads more slowly than normal people D. performs worse in left-brain activities
4. What can we learn from the story
A. Clumsy birds have to start flying early.
B. God shuts one door but opens another.
C. Never judge a person by his appearance.
D. No one can make a good coat with bad cloth.

Passage B
这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了身有残疾的小男孩看到了一只与他同病相怜的小狗,他决定以全价把它买下,虽然老板愿意免费赠送。小男孩认为残疾的狗有着与正常狗一样的价值和尊严,我们不能歧视它们,这是小男孩带给我们的心灵反思。
1.推理判断题。由第三段“The store owner replied, “Anywhere from $30 to $50.””(店主回答说:“从30美元到50美元不等。”)和第七段中的“That little dog is worth every bit as much as all the other dogs and I’ll pay full price.”(那只小狗和其他狗一样值钱,我要付全价。)可知狗至少30美元起,小男孩要全价买,可推断出小男孩决定至少付给主人30美元买这条跛脚的狗。故选C项。
2.细节理解题。由最后一段中的“To his surprise, the little boy reached down and rolled up his pant leg to reveal a badly twisted, crippled left leg supported by a big metal brace.”(令他吃惊的是,小男孩伸手卷起裤腿,露出一条严重扭曲、残废的左腿,腿上有一个大金属支架。)可知店主感到惊讶是因为那个男孩也有残疾。故选A项。
3.词句猜测题。由倒数第二段中的“The shop owner countered, “You really don’t want to buy this little dog. He is never going to be able to run and play with you like the other puppies.””(店主countered:“你真的不要买这只小狗。它再也不能像其他小狗那样和你一起奔跑和玩耍了。”)可知店主辩解让小男孩不要买这只残疾的小狗,还说明了不买它的理由,可推断出countered在此处意为“argue(争辩、说理)”。故选B项。
4.主旨大意题。由全文语境和最后一段中的“He looked up at the shop owner and softly replied, “Well, I don’t run so well myself, and the little puppy will need someone who understands!””(他抬头看了看店主,轻轻地回答说:“嗯,我自己跑得不太好,小狗需要一个能理解它的人!”)可知身有残疾的小男孩看到了一只与他同病相怜的小狗,他决定以全价把它买下,虽然老板愿意免费赠送。小男孩认为残疾的狗有着与正常狗一样的价值和尊严,我们不能歧视它们,小狗需要一个能理解它的人,可知本文主要讲的是“理解”。故选D项。

It was a voice I hadn’t heard for a long time.(一想到那盘糖果,我就尝到了在舌头上慢慢溶解的薄荷味。我几乎能听到奶奶说:“吃块薄荷吧,Burt。”那声音背后带着微笑。那是一个我很久没有听到的声音。)”可知作者想起了以前的欢乐的事情,一些具有从前记忆的东西也许能让奶奶开心,可推测作者最后会去买带来美好回忆的东西作为礼物。故选B。
4.主旨大意题。根据第三段“But what about me Here I was with only one dollar in my pocket and one night to think of a gift. Even though Mom always insisted that “it’s the thought that counts,”(但是我呢 我只有一美元在我的口袋和一个晚上想一件礼物。尽管妈妈总是坚持认为“心意才是最重要的”,)”可知作者想要给奶奶买礼物,但是钱不够,妈妈的观点是“心意是最重要的”,结合下文作者想了很久才想到带着美好记忆的礼物,可知“心意才是最重要的”适合做本文的标题,故选C。
