四、阅读理解 (共8小题；每小题2.5分，满分20分)

A

I was sure this was the worst day of my life. Being diagnosed with Type I diabetes felt almost like a death sentence. My life changed in an instant, and I was terrified of not being able to cope with a chronic (慢性的) disease and afraid that I would never get to be a normal child. Little did I know that this condition would later on allow me to give back to my community through my volunteering initiatives and pursue a career where I could help others.

The impact that my disease had on my family was profound. We all had to learn to adjust to a new reality. I knew that it was up to me to make this work, but I felt lost. After a few days, the initial shock was replaced by denial, then came anger, and little by little, I later gained acceptance. By exercising determination and courage, I decided I would not let it dictate who I was or what I could become.

Meanwhile, I realized that some things in life are better dealt with by having a support system. With this in mind, I looked for volunteering positions where I could share my experience with others and listen to their own struggles. After I got involved in different initiatives, I decided to organize a support group for students who were dealing with difficult situations. The group was so successful that I was invited to other schools to talk about the difference we made in our members, lives by just listening to one another.

We all have challenges in life. Looking back, what felt like a death sentence at first turned into a way of supporting others in my community. It proves that the lessons we take from the setbacks we encounter can, in fact, be fundamental to later success.

1．Why did the author describe illness diagnosis as a death sentence?

A．Because the diagnosis was deadly.

B．Because the condition disabled him.

C．Because the disease ruined his career.

D．Because the illness robbed him of his normal life.

2．How did the author eventually adjust himself to the new reality?

A．He sought support from his family.

B．He lost himself in mood swings.

C．He relied on strong will and courage.

D．He gained acceptance from others.

3．What did the author do to give back to community?

A．Extending a helping hand to difficult students.

B．Inviting volunteers to share their experience.

C．Organizing donations to help those in a struggle.

D．Starting up a support group for students in need.

4．What lesson did the author draw from his experience?

A．Cheerfulness is the promoter of health. B．Helping those in need is a delight.

C．Obstacles bear the seed of success. D．Life is measured by depth than by time.

B

Starting this year, Scholastic Aptitude Test(SAT)scores will be about more than just how many correct answers a person has on the test.The College Board in charge of the SAT recently published a new policy.It will include something called an "adversity score", based on 31 different factors and ranging from I to 100.A score of 50 is an "average level of disadvantage", said The New York Times.A higher score means a student has faced more adversity.It will cover 150 colleges later this year and be available to all US colleges in 2020.

What kind of adversity do students face? African-American students, for example, are more likely to attend underfunded(资金不足的) schools, and their families usually can’t afford extra SAT lessons.Higher SAT scores have been found to have a close tie with students from richer families and those with better-educated parents, reported The New York Times.As a result, the SAT has long been criticized for its unfairness.

The new adversity score tries to deal with that reality.If a student came from a poor neighborhood or attended a high school without enough funding, this information will be given to college administrators.While one student's SAT score may be lower than her rich classmates, college administrators may assume that she did her best in a bad situation.

This sounds good, but the College Board has received a lot of criticism for this new development.Parents are worried.They’re concerned that their children's hard work would be "completely neglected“(忽视)just because they happened to come from a rich family.

Writing in Time, Andre J.Washington and Daniel Hemel call the adversity score a half-hearted effort＂.They say the score fails to directly deal with racial inequality(种族不平等).They also say that the problems experienced by African-Americans are deeper than just low scores and school funding.For example, they point out that African-American students are less likely to have supportive relationships with teachers, so they are less likely to have satisfying recommendation letters.

“At least they're trying”, says Richard D Kahlenberg, a senior fellow at The Century Foundation.“An imperfect adversity score is better than failing to consider the difficulty so many students get through”, he said."The adversity score is simple and direct.”

5．What does “adversity" probably mean in the passage?

A．Mess  B．Difficulty  C．Confusion  D．Failure

6．What is "that reality "in paragraph 3?

A．Schools are underfunded.

B．The media have caused the unfairness.

C．Parents are not well-educated.

D．Family status greatly affects students' scores.

7．What might the influence of ”adversity score”?

A．It will narrow the gap between the white and the black.

B．Students from poor families are likely to benefit from it.

C．It will encourage students to work harder for high scores.

D．Students from rich families may have higher adversity scores..

8．Why is there criticism of the adversity score?

A．It fails to take students' difficulties into consideration.

B．It will make racial inequality a more serious problem.

C．The relationship between teachers and students will be affected.

D．Efforts made by students from rich families will be undervalued.
