Do you like t
17、o eat quickly? Do you like inexpensive food? Some people go to fast-food restaurants for these reasons. In the past, people usually went to diners (路边小餐馆)for these reasons. In fact, many people in the State still go to diners today for the same reasons.A man named Walter Scott had the first “diner”
18、in 1872. It was not really a diner. It was only a food cart. People on the street walked up to the cart to buy food. These carts served late-night workers who wanted a cup of coffee and all late-night meal. The meal was a sandwich or boiled eggs. In 1887, Samuel Jones built the first diner big enoug
19、h to allow the customers to come inside. However, they did not sit down. Later, people built diners with counters and stools and people sat down while they ate. Before long, many diners stayed open around the clock. In other words, people were able to eat in a diner at any time. Diners changed in ot
20、her ways, too. The original menu of sandwiches and coffee became bigger. It included soup, favorite dish, and a breakfast menu. In addition, diners soon became permanent buildings. They were no longer carts on wheels.Diners today look similar to the diners of the early 1900s. They are usually buildi
21、ngs with large windows. Inside, the diners have shining counters with stools, booths, and tables and chairs. People can eat all three meals in a modern diner.Today, many people eat in fast-food restaurants such as McDonalds and Burger King. However, the diner remains an American tradition, and thous
22、ands of people still enjoy eating there. It was popular a century ago, and it is still popular today.36. A man named Walter Scott had the first “diner” in 1872. Why is diner in quotation marks(引号)?A. Because it is spelled differently from “dinner”.B. Because diner was a new word.C. Because the first

American diners serve many types of food 24 hours a day to their customersD. diners are different from fast-food restaurants in many waysBThere is a common belief a
26、mong parents that schools are no longer interested in spelling. No school I have taught in has ever considered spelling unimportant as a basic skill. There are, however, quite different ideas about how to teach it, or how much priority (优先) it must be given over general language development and writ
27、ing ability. The problem is how to encourage a child to express himself freely in writing without holding him back with spelling.If spelling becomes the only point of his teachers interest, clearly a bright child will be likely to “play safe”. He will write only words within his spelling range. That
28、s why teachers often encourage the early use of dictionaries and pay attention to content rather than technical ability.I was once shocked to read on the bottom of a sensitive piece of writing about a personal experience: “This work is terrible! There are far too many spelling mistakes.” It may have
29、 been a sharp criticism of the pupils technical abilities in writing, but it was also a sad thing for the teacher who had omitted (略过) to read the composition, which contained some beautiful expressions of the childs deep feelings. The teacher was not wrong to draw attention to the mistakes, but if
30、his priority had centered on the childs ideas, an expression of his disappointment with the presentation would have given the pupil more hope to seek improvement.41. Teachers differ in their opinions about A. the difficulties in teaching spelling B. the necessity of teaching spellingC. the importance of the basic writing skills D. the role of spelling in general language development 42.
