At the end of that year, she said, “Your year's up. What are you going to do?” The truth is that I didn't have any idea. I happened to attend a community event and saw a table set up by Greater Cleveland Volunteers. They asked me, “Are you interested in tutoring children in public schools?” I thought: I've always been the one talking about what the teachers aren't doing and what the schools aren't doing, and what they need to do, so this was my chance to actually do something.It had never occurred to me that I would like doing something like this. But I went in for an interview, and was accepted at last.Now, this is my sixth year working three days a week, five hours a day. We help the children learn to read. Their teacher gives us an evaluation (評價) of where the students' weaknesses are, and we work on those areas. With the kindergartners, it's mostly ABCs. They can sing the ABC song but can't recognize the letters. At the school I'm tutoring now, there are more than 40 kids. The ones who are lagging (落后) in those areas of literacy may get lost sometimes. Teachers don't have time to work with the individual students and get them up to the level with the rest of the kids, so we are a big help to them.I was a complainer about poor schools, but I have found out they are doing the best they can with the resources that they have. And I get enjoyment from giving back and helping those who need help.篇章導讀:本文是一篇記敘文,講述了作者退休后在克利夫蘭公立學校當輔導教師的經歷,從而對輔導教師角色有了新的認識。5What's the author's attitude toward the public schools before?ADissatisfied.

For example, the university application process is full of acronyms (縮寫): EA(Early Action), ED(Early Decision), ED 2(Early Decision second deadline). _1_.Early Action(EA)Early Action is a great gift for the wellprepared student. _2_, typically Nov.1. The good thing is that students receive information of their acceptance, rejection or delay much earlier, with some in December but some not until the end of January. The best benefit is that EA is not binding (有約束力的), so students may apply to more than one school. Early Decision(ED) and Early Decision second deadline(ED 2)ED is simple. You apply earlytypically by Nov.1and you're informed earlytypically by Dec. 24. If you're accepted, it's bindingyou must go. _3_. ED 2 is frequently used by students who applied ED elsewhere and were either rejected or delayed.There are some disadvantages with Early Decision, however. Yes, the numbers can be very appealing. _4_. Early Decision applicants are frequently athletes, or development caseswhere the family has donated a lot of money, etc.The Early Decision choice is binding. Once students are accepted ED, they are asked to withdraw their applications from all other schools where they have applied. _5_.AThus, ED is a big decisionBNow a small number of universities have added an ED 2CTo help you understand this, here's some information about themDSince it is binding, you are allowed to apply to only one collegeEStudents must submit their complete application by an earlier deadlineFBut families need to understand that the applicant pool for ED is typically strongerGStudents accepted are not required to inform the college of their decision until May 11C前文提到了幾種容易引起困惑的申請流程,下文分別介紹并解析了這幾種流程,所以該空應起到承上啟下的作用,故選C。2E本段主要介紹Early Action,且由該空后的日期可知E項符合語境。3B根據標題Early Decision(ED) and Early Decision second deadline (ED 2) 可知,此處應介紹ED和ED 2,上一段介紹了ED,且該空后介紹的是ED 2,由此得知該空的內容應與ED 2有關,以引起下文,故B項符合語境。4F空格前提到ED有一些缺點,但是錄取的人數很誘人,而空格后指出ED的申請人多是運動員或保證會錄取的。由此可知前后文是轉折關系:雖然ED錄取人數多,但申請者競爭力強。故選F。5A根據本段的第一句話 “The Early Decision choice is binding.”可知,如果ED申請成功,就不能更改,所以ED是個重大的決定。be admitted to 被錄取apply to 申請withdraw v. 撤回;收回最后一段第二句:Once students are accepted ED, they are asked to withdraw their applications from all other schools where they have applied.譯文:一旦學生通過ED申請被錄取,他們就被要求從所有其他申請學校撤回申請。分析:這是一個主從復合句,once引導條件狀語從句。從句中where引導定語從句,修飾先行詞schools。
