• 1．Recently a growing number of foreign universities，such as the University of Cambridge，are accepting China's gaokao results as one of their admission standards．Is the Chinese college entrance exam being recognized globally？Forum readers share their opinions：
      Cecilia Zhang（China）
     The gaokao is a really tough exam．If possible，it can be used as one of the indicators（指標(biāo)）for foreign universities，in addition to other indicators，such as how well they speak the target language．The students，who perform well in the gaokao，also have the ability to successfully adapt to Western styles of education．I believe accepting the gaokao as an indicator is a win-win for Chinese students and overseas universities．
     Wchao37（US）
     In fact，gaokao is perhaps much more difficult than the SAT or ACT exams．You can get a perfect score of 1600 on the SAT but not in the gaokao，partly because the SAT is a machine-scored multiple-choice exam．Do you know anyone that has ever achieved a perfect score in the gaokao？
     Harry01（UK）
     Hundreds of students from China have entered universities in the UK using their gaokao scores，which requires that their knowledge of English be above a certain level．This measure has benefited specific groups of students from various backgrounds in China．
     Mbursian （Canada）
     In order to attend a university in an English speaking country，a student needs to have an acceptable band score on the IELTS．Most importantly，students need an acceptable knowledge of the language spoken in any country they plan to study in．Now the Chinese gaokao is closer to meeting the requirements of different countries．
  
  （1）Who believes accepting the Chinese gaokao is a win-win？

  
  A．Cecilia Zhang．
  B．Wchao37．
  C．Harry01．
  D．Mbursian．
  （2）What is most important for Chinese students planning to study abroad？

  
  A．The IELTS score．
  B．Enough test preparation．
  C．The Chinese gaokao score．
  D．Knowledge of the native language．
  （3）What does the text intend to tell the readers？

  
  A．The gaokao will replace other tests．
  B．The gaokao is becoming globally accepted．
  C．The gaokao is the most difficult of all tests．
  D．The University of Cambridge made a good decision．

• 9．閱讀下面短文，根據(jù)所給情節(jié)進(jìn)行續(xù)寫，使之構(gòu)成一個(gè)完整的故事。
      In the 1970s，when I was a new teacher at a school in Detroit，I was arranged to teach a particularly talented class.The students included a little girl named Mary Kay，who had spent only one year at our school—the year that I had her in my third-grade class.
      Her father was Billy Kim，a quite famous man.He was from South Korea.His daughter Mary Kay could speak beautiful English，and loved smiling.She had great respect for learning and never made trouble in class.
      In one class，I asked Mary Kay to read an article in our book out loud.To my surprise，although Mary Kay could speak beautiful，flowing English，she was poor in reading.She even mispronounced many words.Immediately，the kids in the class laughed at her.
      Then I said to Mary Kay， "Why don't you go and write some words in your native language on the blackboard for everyone？" Mary Kay's eyes suddenly brightened，and she walked with a smile to the board，full of new-found confidence.
      The other children watched as she wrote word after word along with her name in her native language.The whole class immediately watched with a bit of respect and amazement，not pity.Then one of the students said， "Write my name，Mary Kay." And she did.Then more students asked.Soon，the whole class had their names on the board，and Mary Kay became a heroine.She could do something the others could not.She went from feeling inadequate（能力不足的） to feeling proud.In the following days，I still often encouraged Mary Kay.
      After Mary Kay finished her third grade，I had never met her and lost contact with her.About 30 years later，I happened to meet with her father in a local church.And I decided to ask him about Mary Kay，so I introduced myself first.
  
  Paragraph 1：
      "Hello，Mr Kim，I'm Sophia Brown，" I said.                          
  Paragraph 2：
      She told me how much my class had influenced her life.                            ???????
