More than one-million school children in the United States have gone through a program called Reading Recovery(阅读恢复). The program is for six-year-olds with difficulties in learning to read.

Reading Recovery came to the United States in 1984. Education expert(专家) Marie Clay of New Zealand developed the program. A number of other countries also use this method. Programs are quite different from school. The Reading Recovery Council of North America says more than 25% of the United States public schools with first grades use the program.

The Reading Recovery method requires a specially trained reading teacher to work with children one at a time. The lessons take a half hour each school day, including reading, writing and the study of the letters of the alphabet(字母表).

Reading Recovery lessons take place for twelve to twenty weeks. During the lessons, the teacher looks for ways that the child seems to learn best. Then the teacher works to help the students develop these methods to solve problems in reading. The idea is for the students to continue to use these methods each time they read.

Reading Recovery students read many short books. Some of the books are written in a way similar to spoken language. Children also read and write stories or messages in their own words. The material gets harder with time.

The lessons end when the students’ reading ability is within the average level(平均水平) of the class. The Reading Recovery Council of North America says eighty percent of the students who finish the lessons can read and write within their class average. The leader of this program says more than ninety-nine percent of the Reading Recovery students in the schools passed the state reading examination.

In the United States, most cities have public libraries. Inside most libraries are hundreds of books－and sometimes more!－many of which are available for taking home. Of course, you have to bring any book you borrow back to the library when you're done.

Libraries help people find information. As the ways people find information change, libraries need to change, too. The Internet is a tool that helps people find information much faster than if they were to look in books, so a lot of libraries have begun using computers and technology to help people keep learning.

The New York Public Library is the most famous library in New York City. When the main branch was opened in 1911, it had a collection of over one million books. Outside this main building, two giant stone lions guard the entrance. Since the library is over one hundred years old, bringing in new technology is not easy.

The New York Public Library now has computers in every building. You can use the computers to go on the Internet or to write a paper. The librarians will help if you have a question and there are even free classes to help people learn how to use new computer programs. But this is only the beginning of how the library wants to use technology.

In the basement of the library, there is a room filled with computer programmers and designers who are bringing new technology to the library. This place is called the NYPL Labs. Ben Vershbow runs the NYPL Labs. He wants to help the library reach more people. Ben runs projects using "crowdsourcing."

"Crowdsourcing" means getting a lot of people involved to help with a project. Ben is currently using the Internet to find people to help with the library's collection of menus. The library has thousands and thousands of old menus. You can see what people ate in the year 1900 and find out how much that food cost.

In the past, only people in New York could use the New York Public Library. Now, the library is online and everyone can enjoy it. Thanks to technology, we have a new kind of library.

1.What do libraries help people find?

2.Which library is the most famous library in the New York City?

3.Why does Ben Vershbow run the NYPL Labs?

4.What can we find with the old menus in the New York Public Library?

5.What does the passage mainly talk about?

Many kinds of birds live in the United States, but the number of the birds is becoming smaller every year. One of the leading reasons is the growing number of pet cats. By keeping your pet cats in your home, you can help give birds a better possible chance to live.

Of the 90 million pet cats in this country, about two—thirds are allowed to go outside. It is said that these cats kill hundreds of millions of birds each year, as well as billions of small animals such as rabbits and field mice.

They can also bring illness to the animals that live I n people's yard(院子), further weakening the health of the natural populations.

Allowing pet cats to go outside is not just bad for birds and wildlife, it's also bad for the cats themselves. Outdoor cats can get sick very easily. They are in danger from traffic and attacks(攻击)from other animals. In fact, outdoor cats usually don't live past the age of five, while indoor cats often live to be 17 or older.

Keep your pet cat inside! If you raise a young cat, it's your duty to let it play inside.

In the United States, parents usually encourage their children to develop their potential (潜能). They pay attention to what their kids can do, not what they can't. As a result, US boys and girls have their own dream jobs, such as actors, doctors even president(总统). So US parents often encourage their children to take part in all kinds of activities at school.

But things in China are different. Chinese parents often tell their children to study hard and pass exams. They think that, for a student, staying away from schoolbooks means wasting time. This has put too much pressure(压力) on Chinese children, so leaders in China’s education have called for less homework at the lower grades. Only healthy kids can become healthy adults.

1.The American parents don’t care what their kids can do.

2.Many American children have their dream jobs.

3.As for Chinese parents, students needn’t do a lot of schoolwork.
