12、d helicopters were grounded because of thick fog. He would have to go by ambulance(救护车).

26、den City Concert Hall Shanghai Grand TheaterC. Shanghai Oriental Art Center and Shanghai Grand TheaterD. China National Center and Shanghai Oriental Art CenterCReading is the key to school success, and like any skill, it takes practice. A child learns to walk by practicing until he no longer has to
27、think about how to put one foot in front of the other. A great athlete practices until he can play quickly, correctly, without thinking. Tennis players call that being in the zone. Educators call it automaticity (自动性).A child learns to read by sounding out the letters and get the meanings of the wor
28、ds. With practice, he speaks with fewer and fewer pauses and mistakes, reading by the phrase. With automaticity, he doesnt have to think about getting the meanings of the words, so he can pay attention to the meaning of the text.It can begin as early as first grade. In a recent study of children in
29、an Illinois school, Alan Rossman of Northwestern University found automatic readers in the first grade who were reading almost three times as fast as the other children and scoring twice as high on comprehension tests. At fifth grade, the automatic readers were reading twice as fast as the others, a

Any child who spends at least 3.5 to 4 hours a week reading books, magazines or newspapers will most probably reac

If he reads aloud w
32、ith expression, with a sense of the meaning of the sentences, he probably is an automatic reader.

Reading is the key to school success. C. How to test your childs readin
