Besides, I dont know what your middle school was like, but high school teachers will
2、not care about things such as how much homework you already have in one night. Its best to just learn to deal with things and manage your time wisely so you can achieve everything you need to.Frank, Aged 21I think almost every kid feels both nervous and excited before their first day.

3、bly love it. I know I did. You should join some sports or activities that will make your high school experience more enjoyable. Good luck!Eddie, Aged 20When I started high school, I was really nervous too, especially since I had been homeschooled all through middle school and didnt really know anyon
4、e. I suppose the best advice would be to just relax. The first couple of days can be a little bit hard, but things will become easier before you know it.David, Aged 19Im not going to lie. The first day is kind of frightening(令人恐惧的). But youll get used to it. Dont be afraid of anyone; upperclassmen(高
5、年级学生) will pick on you more if you let them know youre afraid. Just take it easy. Making some friends and staying with them will greatly help you get used to high school quickly. After the first week, its really not bad at all. Dont worry.21. What can we infer from Sharon about high school?A. Teache
6、rs are quite strict.B. Students often stay up at night.C. Teachers provide little care for students.D. Students should make good use of their time.22. How did Eddie feel on his first day of high school?A. Excited. B. Bored. C. Worried. D. Relaxed.23. Who mentions the importance of friends?A. Frank.
7、B. David. C. Sharon. D. Eddie.BFancy Dress High SchoolMany American schools dont have a dress code (规范). Sometimes students can dress in the wildest ways you could imagine!I noticed this during my first term as an exchange student at Macon High School in Missouri. One day, I saw all the students at
8、my school were dressed up in strange clothing. The girls were wearing bright-coloured shirts and mini-skirts. The boys were wearing old-fashioned black suits. Later my friends told me that they were dressed up in the fashion of the 1900s.“But why?” I asked, surprised.“Because its the homecoming week
9、, a time when former (以前的) students of the school come back and meet each other again. There are parties and sports events. The school encourages us to wear 1900s clothes on Monday, pyjamas (睡衣) on Tuesday, orange clothes on Wednesday, clothes inside out on Thursday, and socks that do not match on t
10、he last day! Sounds like fun, doesnt it?” Id never imagined students wearing anything so crazy at school before. The next day, I plucked up (鼓起) my courage and went to school in blue pyjamas. There was no embarrassment (尴尬) since everyone was in pyjamas, even the teachers! It excited us when we noti
11、ced that Mr Lewis, our American history teacher, who always has a straight face and never makes jokes, was wearing pyjamas too! It made class that day such a lot of fun.The rest of the week was also amazing. But I realised that homecoming week was not just about fun, but a chance to be creative and
12、try out new things. 24The first paragraph serves as an _.A. explanation B. introduction C. example D. opening 25The students at Macon High School dressed in a strange way during the homecoming week because they _.A. had a strange sense of fashion B. were encouraged to dress like thatC. were ordered
13、to wear 1800s clothesD. wanted to look different 26Wearing blue pyjamas, the writer probably felt _ before going to school. A. surprised B. confident C. comfortable D. nervous 27We can learn from the passage that during the homecoming week the _.A. students had fun and tried out new things as well B
14、. students forgot all about their studies and had funC. teachers dressed as they did every dayD. teachers paid more attention to their teaching styles C Many facts suggest that children are overweight and the situation is getting worse, according to the doctors. I feel there are a number of reasons
15、for this. Some people blame the fact that we are surrounded by shops selling unhealthy, fatty foods, such as fried chicken and ice cream, at low prices. This has turned out a whole generation of grown-ups who seldom cook a meal for themselves. If there were fewer of these restaurants, then probably
16、children would buy less take-away food. There is another argument that blames parents for allowing their children to become overweight. I agree with this, because good eating habits begin early in life, long before children start to visit fast food shops. If children are given fried chicken and choc
17、olate rather than healthy food, or are always allowed to choose what they eat, they will go for sweet and salty foods every time, and this will carry on throughout their lives. There is a third reason for this situation. Children these days take very little exercise. They do not walk to school. When
18、 they get home, they sit in front of the television or their computers and play computer games. Not only is this an unhealthy pastime, it also gives them time to eat more unhealthy food. What they need is to go outside and play active games or sports. The above are the main reasons for this problem,
19、 and therefore we have to encourage young people to be more active, as well as steer them away from fast food shops and bad eating habits.28.According to the text, what kind of children may eat more unhealthy food? A. Those who often take exercise. B. Those who often walk to school. C. Those who oft
20、en watch television.D. Those who often have meals at home. 29. The author thinks that children are becoming overweight because_ . A. their parents often cook meals for them B. they are too busy to go out and play C. they cant choose what to eat D. there are too many fast food shops around30. The wor
21、d steer underlined in the last sentence most probably means _. A. force B. guide C. divide D. cover31. The main purpose of the text is to _. A. tell a story B. provide facts C. give advice D. compare opinionsDAmerica is a mobile society. Friendships between Americans can be close and real, yet disap
22、pear soon if situations change. Neither side feels hurt by this. Both may exchange Christmas greetings for a year or two, perhaps a few letters for a while then no more. If the same two people meet again by chance, even years later, they pick up the friendship. This can be quite difficult for us Chi
23、nese to understand, because friendships between us flower more slowly but then may become lifelong feelings, extending(延伸) sometimes deeply into both families.Americans are ready to receive us foreigners at their homes, share their holidays, and their home life. They will enjoy welcoming us and be p
24、leased if we accept their hospitality(好客) easily.Another difficult point for us Chinese to understand Americans is that although they include us warmly in their personal everyday lives, they dont show their politeness to us if it requires a great deal of time. This is usually the opposite of the pra
25、ctice in our country where we may be generous with our time. Sometimes, we, as hosts, will appear at airports even in the middle of the night to meet a friend. We may take days off to act as guides to our foreign friends. The Americans, however, express their welcome usually at homes, but truly cann
26、ot manage the time to do a great deal with a visitor outside their daily routine. They will probably expect us to get ourselves from the airport to our own hotel by bus. And they expect that we will phone them from there. Once we arrive at their homes, the welcome will be full, warm and real. We wil
27、l find ourselves treated hospitably.For the Americans, it is often considered friendly to invite a friend to their homes than to go to restaurants, except for purely business matters. So accept their hospitality at home!32. The writer of this passage must be _.A. an American B. a Chinese C. a profes
28、sor D. a student33. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. Friendships between Americans usually extend deeply into their families.B. Friendships between Americans usually last for all their lives.C. Americans always show their warmth even if they are very busy.D. Amer
29、icans will continue their friendships again even after a long break.34. From the last two paragraphs we can learn that when we arrive in America to visit an American friend, we will probably be _.A. warmly welcomed at the airportB. offered a ride to his homeC. treated hospitably at his homeD. treate
30、d to dinner in a restaurant35. A suitable title for this passage would probably be “_”.A. Friendships between Chinese B. Friendships between AmericansC. Americans hospitality D.

52、 to understand”(这可能对于我们中国人很难理解),以文中多处出现的“we”,可以推断这是一个中国人写的文章,讲述美国人的交友特点。故选B。33. 细节理解题。 根据第一段“This can be quite difficult for us Chinese to understand, because friendships between us flower more slowly but then may become lifelong feelings, extending(延伸) sometimes deeply into both families.”(对于中国人来说,
53、这是非常难以理解的,因为我们之间的友谊发展得更慢一些,但是后来可能会变成一生的情谊,有时会延伸到双方的家庭里。)判断,A、B都是中国人交友特点。再根据第三段“they dont show their politeness to us if it requires a great deal of time.”(如果要消耗大量时间,他们就不会表现得那么礼貌了。)判断C不符。根据第一段“If the same two people meet again by chance, even years later, they pick up the friendship.”(如果这两个人再次偶然遇见,即使
54、是相隔多年,他们仍能重拾友情。)分析,D正确。故选D。34. 细节理解题。根据第三段,整体意思说美国人比较吝惜时间,一旦花费时间他们就没有那么热情了,没到他们家里之前的其他事,你需要自己操劳;一旦到了他们家里,他们就会很热情。故选C。35. 主旨大意题。文章通篇都在通过对比的方式来讲述中国人和美国人不同的交友观念。故选D七选五: 36-40 FCDBG篇章导读:本文是一篇说明文。作者针对如何适应新学校这一问题,给出了自己的建议。41F根据设空后的“When you go to a new school, you might worry that you dont know anyone. Yo
55、u worry that you might get lost, or if the teachers are strict. Here are some ways to help you adjust to a new school.”可知,这里提到了去新的学校,你可能会担心的问题,说明适应新学校是困难的,所以F项切题。故选F。42C由本段的标题“Get to Know the School”可知,这一段是关于了解学校的话题,C项“找到你的教室和其他一些重要的地方。”符合语境。故选C。43D根据设空后的“Being well rested will help you remove (去除)
56、any nervousness you may be feeling.”可知,这里提到了充分的休息可以帮助你去除紧张,D项“以一个好的睡眠开启你入学的第一天。”符合语境。故选D。44B根据下文的“Make sure you leave lots of time in the morning to get to school . make a few new friends.”可知,这里提到了早点到学校的好处。B项“早点出发去学校。”适合作小标题。故选B。45G根据本段开头句“Take part in activities.”可知,G项“这样做将给你提供在运动或是其他活动中展现才能的机会。”符合
57、语境。故选G。完形填空(共20小题;每题2分,满分40分)第一节:41-45 DACBD 46-50 ACBDC 51-55 BADBC56-60 AADCB第二节:阅读下面短文,在空白处填入适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。61a 62boring 63to find 64different 65that66in 67were 68classmates 69my 70Certainly改错71. come 改came 72.he 改him 73.in改on 74.a改the75. that改which 76.greatly改great 77.animal改animals78. booksho
