A
Sharon, Aged 22
The most important thing to keep in mind when going into high school is to be yourself. Besides, I don’t know what your middle school was like, but high school teachers will not care about things such as how much homework you already have in one night. It’s best to just learn to deal with things and manage your time wisely so you can achieve everything you need to.
Frank, Aged 21
I think almost every kid feels both nervous and excited before their first day. You will probably love it. I know I did. You should join in some sports or activities that will make your high school experience more enjoyable. Good luck!
David, Aged 19
I’m not going to lie. The first day is kind of frightening. But you’ll get used to it. Don’t be afraid of anyone; upperclassmen will pick on you more if you let them know you’re 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 it’s really not bad at all. Don’t worry.
Eddie ,Aged 20
When I started high school I was really nervous too, especially since I had been homeschooled all through middle school and didn’t really know anyone. 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.

A. Teachers 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.

It's school time again! You're probably feeling excited and maybe a little sad that summer is over. Some kids feel nervous or a little frightened on the first day of school because of all the new things: new teachers, new friends, and even a new school. Luckily, these "new" worries only stick around for a little while. Let's find out more about going to a new school.
Most teachers kick off the new school year by introducing themselves and talking about all the stuff you'll be doing that year. Some teachers give students a chance to tell something about themselves to the rest of the class, too. When teachers do the talking on the first day, they often read classroom rules and school rules to you so you'll know what's allowed and what's not. Please pay close attention.
You might already know a lot of people in your class on the first day, but it's a great day to make a new friend, so try to say hello to kids you know and new ones that you don't know. Make the first move and you'll be glad you did, and so will your new friends!
Seeing friends you haven't seen for some time can make the first day a good one. You can make the day feel special by wearing clothes that you really like. Maybe you got a great T-shirt on one of your vacations, or a pair of sneakers. It also can make you feel good to be prepared and have all the things you need, such as pencils, folders, and whatever else you'll need. But make sure that you pack them the night before in case you don't have time in the morning.
4. What does the underlined phrase "kick off" in the second paragraph probably mean
A Start. B. Study. C. Find. D. Teach.
5. What does the last paragraph mainly tell us about
A. What to know about a new school. B. How to prepare for a new school.
C. What to do on your first day of school. D. How to spend your first day of school.
6. According to the passage, you usually do the following things on the first day of school except _________.
A. introduce yourself B. learn about the school rules
C. make new friends D. go over your new lessons
7. If you happen to see an old friend on the first day of school, what will you feel from the passage we know
A. Nervous. B. Sad. C. Happy. D. Worried.
C
To most of us,school means classes,teachers,schedules,grades,and tests.But for the children at Sudbury Valley School in Massachusetts,school is very different.
Firstly,there are no lessons.All the children,aged between 4 and 19,do whatever they want.There are no teachers—only “staff members”.The idea behind this is that you do not need to make children learn,because children want to learn anyway.“You do not need to say to a three year old,‘Go explore your environment.'You can't stop them!” says Daniel Greenberg,a founder of the school.“But if you make children do what you want all day,they will lose all taste for learning.”
At Sudbury Valley School,you will permit children to talk,read,paint,cook,work on computers,study French,play the piano,climb trees or just run around.Two boys spent three years just fishing!
The other way that Sudbury Valley School is different is that the children can decide the rules.Every week,there is a school meeting where both children and staff have one vote each—even the four year olds.They decide the school rules,how to spend the school budget,and even which staff they want and do not want any more.
When the school first opened in 1968,people said it would never work.But today,the school has 200 students,and 80%of its students go on to college. Even the two boys who went fishing all the time have successful careers today.One of them is a musician and the other is a computer scientist.
8. What is the main topic of the article
A. An unusual school. B. Children's hobbies.
C. A school without rules. D. Education in the US.
9. What does the school believe
A. Teachers cannot teach children Well.
B. Children learn best when they do what they want to do.
C. Learning is for adults—children should only play.
D. Children should only learn about one thing at a time.
10. What does Daniel Greenberg say about three- year- olds
A. They love learning.
B. They are very naughty.
C. They want to be outside all the time.
D. They are too young to learn anything.
11. Who has the most power in the school meetings
A. The older children have more power than the younger children.
B. A child has more power than an adult.
C. The younger children have more power than the older children.
D. Everybody has equal power.
D
How often do you exercise A new study found that most kids aged 12 to 15 weren't getting enough physical activity. The results were based on about 800 kids. As part of the study, the kids tracked and reported on their own activity levels, and took physical exams.
U. S. fitness guidelines suggest an hour or more of physical activity every day. According to the study, only 1in 4 U.S. kids get enough physical activity.
"It's certainly worrying to see that our kids have such a limited amount of physical activity each day,” said Dr. Stephen Pont. He is an expert on children's health.
Few kids in the study met the guidelines on physical activity that raises the heart rate and makes people breathe harder. Overall, about 25% said they got an hour of that kind of exercise every day. Kids also reported on which activities they did most often outside of school gym class--basketball for boys and running for girls.
The study found that fat teenagers were less active than normal-weight girls and boys. Fat girls were slightly less active than normal-weight girls, but levels were similar among overweight and normal-weight boys. The study also said that the percent of fat children aged 2 to 19 was 17%, or about 12.5 million kids.
"There's always room for improvement," said Tala Fakhouri, who was the leader of the study. She also said the results provide useful information to help with fitness campaigns such as Let's Move, which was initiated by Michelle Obama in 2010. To inspire kids to eat right and get in shape, Michelle visits schools and holds exercise events. She also calls on schools to offer regular gym classes.
The study also found kids who get physical education at school may get better grades.
12. What is the result of the new study
A. 800 kids don't get enough physical activity.
B. Most U.S. kids don't get enough exercise.
C. Kids should get physical activity every day.
D. It's important to take physical exams.
13. Which of the following sports do girls like best
A. Swimming. B. Basketball. C. Running. D. Gym.
14 What's the purpose of the campaign Let's Move
A. To help kids to keep fit. B. To provide useful information.
C To offer regular gym classes. D. To hold exercise events.
15. According to the study children with enough exercise may__________.
A. be less active than fat children B. be more willing to help others
C. do better in their studies D. try their best to get in shape

Dear editor,
I am a high school student. A few days before, one of my good friend told me that he was going to drop out of school. He said that he wants to start his own business. I tried my best to get him change his mind, but I failed. I know it is difficult of him to change his mind. He is not doing so good in his studies, yet I insist that I should give it a try.

【分析】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了新学校开学第一天的情况。老师在开学第一天可能会讲的内容。作为学生应该从哪些方面应对开学的第一天。
【4题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第一段最后一句“Let's find out more about going to a new school.(让我们了解更多关于去一所新学校的信息。)”可知,此句承上启下,要介绍新学期新学校的情况。因此划横线所在的句子意为:大多数老师在新学年开始时都会介绍自己,并谈论你这一年要做的事情。kick off意为开始,故选A项。
【5题详解】
主旨大意题。根据最后一段“You can make the day feel special by wearing clothes that you really like. Maybe you got a great T-shirt on one of your vacations, or a pair of sneakers. It also can make you feel good to be prepared and have all the things you need, such as pencils, folders, and whatever else you'll need.(你可以穿你真正喜欢的衣服,让这一天感觉特别。也许你在某个假期买了一件很棒的t恤,或者一双运动鞋。准备好所有你需要的东西,比如铅笔、文件夹和其他任何你需要的东西,也会让你感觉很好。)”可知,通过一些准备可以让新学校开学第一天变得特别。因此最后一段主要讲如何为新学期做准备。故选B项。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“Some teachers give students a chance to tell something about themselves to the rest of the class, too. When teachers do the talking on the first day, they often read classroom rules and school rules to you so you'll know what's allowed and what's not.(有些老师也给学生机会向班上其他同学介绍自己。当老师在第一天讲课时,他们通常会给你读课堂规则和学校规则,这样你就会知道什么是允许的,什么是不允许的。)”可知,学生在开学第一天可能会做自我介绍、学习新校规,因此排除A和B选项。根据第三段第一句“You might already know a lot of people in your class on the first day, but it's a great day to make a new friend, so try to say hello to kids you know and new ones that you don't know.(开学第一天,你可能已经认识班里的很多人了,但这是结交新朋友的好时机,所以试着跟你认识的孩子和你不认识的新朋友打个招呼。)”可知,开学第一天会认识新朋友,因此排除选项C。故选D项。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段第一句“Seeing friends you haven't seen for some time can make the first day a good one. (去见见很久没见的朋友会让第一天过得很愉快。)”可知,在新学期第一天看到老朋友会让这一天都非常愉快,因此新学期第一天见到老朋友会高兴。故选C项。
C
To most of us,school means classes,teachers,schedules,grades,and tests.But for the children at Sudbury Valley School in Massachusetts,school is very different.
Firstly,there are no lessons.All the children,aged between 4 and 19,do whatever they want.There are no teachers—only “staff members”.The idea behind this is that you do not need to make children learn,because children want to learn anyway.“You do not need to say to a three year old,‘Go explore your environment.'You can't stop them!” says Daniel Greenberg,a founder of the school.“But if you make children do what you want all day,they will lose all taste for learning.”
At Sudbury Valley School,you will permit children to talk,read,paint,cook,work on computers,study French,play the piano,climb trees or just run around.Two boys spent three years just fishing!
The other way that Sudbury Valley School is different is that the children can decide the rules.Every week,there is a school meeting where both children and staff have one vote each—even the four year olds.They decide the school rules,how to spend the school budget,and even which staff they want and do not want any more.
When the school first opened in 1968,people said it would never work.But today,the school has 200 students,and 80%of its students go on to college. Even the two boys who went fishing all the time have successful careers today.One of them is a musician and the other is a computer scientist.

【9题详解】

Simple ways to improve your written English
Many people think it is really difficult to improve (提高) their writing in English. Don’t worry, though. Here are some simple steps that you can take to improve your written English.
● Increase your vocabulary.
To express yourself clearly, you need a good active vocabulary. That’s not just being able to know lots of words — it means actually being able to use them correctly. ___36___
Tip: When you learn a new word, try to learn all the forms of that word.
● ___37___
People often say that we learn to write best by reading. Reading in English is useful in many ways. It is a great way to get an idea of the different styles of writing and see how to use words properly.
Tip: ___38___ Learning shouldn’t be boring. Read each text several times to make sure you understand how to use new words and expressions in the text.
● Improve your grammar.
Grammar is very important because it improves the quality (质量) of your writing.
Tip: ___39___ The first time, look for general mistakes and the second time look for mistakes with the grammar point you are studying at the moment.

C. Always check your writing twice.
D. Remember, practice makes perfect!
E. Choose books or articles that interest you.

【答案】36. G 37. B 38. E 39. C 40. D
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇应用文。文章就如何提高英语写作水平给出了三点建议。
【36题详解】
根据本段小标题Increase your vocabulary (增加你的词汇量)及空前That’s not just being able to know lots of words — it means actually being able to use them correctly.(这不仅仅是能够知道很多单词,这意味着能够正确地使用它们)可知,G项Do this by learning new words with example sentences, not just word lists.(通过例句学习新单词,而不仅仅是单词表)符合文意。选项G中的new words与标题中的vocabulary以及与上句中的lots of words呼应,并且选项G中的doing this可与use them correctly形成指代关系。故选G。
【37题详解】
根据其它两个小标题的句式可知,此处应填简短的祈使句。由第二段小标题下的Reading in English is useful in many ways.(读英语在很多方面是很有用的)可知,这个小标题强调读英语的重要性。由此可知,B项 Read widely and often(广泛地读与常读)可与标题下的内容呼应。故选B。
【38题详解】
根据下文Learning shouldn’t be boring.(学习不应该是枯燥的)可知,这里应是描写英语读的内容。选项E中的interest you(让你感兴趣的)可与下一句中的boring形成翻译呼应;由此可知, E项Choose books or articles that interest you.(选择你感兴趣的书或文章)符合文意。故选E。
【39题详解】
根据空后The first time, look for general mistakes and the second time look for mistakes with the grammar point you are studying at the moment.(第一次,找出一般的错误,第二次,找出你正在学习的语法点的错误)可知,此处指写完后要检查两遍。由此可知,C项Always check your writing twice.(经常检查你的写作两次)符合文意。选项C中的“twice”可与其中的“The first time…the second time”呼应,故选C。
【40题详解】
根据空前Be prepared to write several versions (版本) of each text.(准备好写几遍的打算)及本段的小标题Just do it!(就这么干吧!)可知,D项Remember, practice makes perfect!(记住,熟能生巧)与多练习前后呼应。故选D。
【点睛】七选五题目主要考查学生综合的英语逻辑思维能力。一篇好的短文,不仅在内容上要前后一致,而且还要语篇结构清晰,上下文逻辑意义严谨。内容的前后一致体现在段内及语篇内话题的自然过渡。语篇结构主要体现为:文章是总分结构,还是按时间或空间顺序发展的,还是辩证三段论的编排的。逻辑意义的严谨最主要的可以通过代词、连词和副词等形式来体现。我们做题时优先选择句式以及上下词之间的呼应关系。这篇短文是带有小标题的文章,根据句式以及小标题与小标题内容呼应是重要的解题原则。例如根据小标题句式特点,我们很快可以锁定第二题的答案应该在AB之间,再根据内容一致性确定答案。第四题是明显的时间词语的呼应,第一题,第三题是词汇上下呼应。第五题是意思呼应。所以我们一般以呼应关系或句式确定答案,再以内容一致性验证答案。
四、语法填空
阅读下面材料,在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。
Today is my first school day in senior high school. I was a little anxious because I wanted to make a good first ____41____(impress) on others. In the morning, I had my first maths class . ____42____is quite difficult for me. ____43____ (lucky), the teacher and most classmates were kind-hearted ____44____ friendly. The teacher even told a funny story, making everyone laugh. In the afternoon, we had ____45____ interesting chemistry class in the newly-built lab. However, a guy beside me always tried to talk to me. What he did stopped me from ____46____ (concentrate) on those interesting ____47____(experiment), and all that ____48____(annoy) me greatly. At the end of the day, my worry disappeared. I no longer felt awkward or ____49____(frighten). Instead, I began to feel much ____50____(confident) than I felt this morning.
【答案】41. impression
42. It 43. Luckily
44. and 45. an
46. concentrating
47. experiments
48. annoyed
49. frightened
50. more confident
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇记叙文,描述了作者在高中入学第一天的经历。
【41题详解】
考查名词。句意:我有点焦虑因为我想给别人留下一个好的第一印象。make a good impression是固定搭配,意为“留下好印象”,因此设空处填名词。故填impression。
【42题详解】
考查代词。句意:它对我来说有点难。it指代上一句中的单数名词短语maths class。故填It。
【43题详解】
考查副词。句意:幸运的是老师和大多数同学都很善良和友好。副词放句首,用逗号隔开,做状语修饰整个句子。故填Luckily。
【44题详解】
考查连词。句意:同上。and连接并列的成份,kind-hearted与friendly是并列关系,故填and。
【45题详解】
考查冠词。句意:下午,我们在新建的实验室里上了一节有趣的化学课。设空处后为名词短语,缺少冠词,且名词短语chemistry class在文中第一次提到,需使用不定冠词,因interesting是元音音素开头,故填an。
【46题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:他的所作所为使我无法集中精力做那些有趣的实验,而这一切使我非常恼火。stop sb. from doing.为固定搭配,故填concentrating。
【47题详解】
考查名词。句意:他的所作所为使我无法集中精力做那些有趣的实验,而这一切使我非常恼火。设空处前为形容词,空处因为名词,又因those指“那些”,意为复数,故填可数名词复数形式。故填experiments。
【48题详解】
考查动词。句意:他的所作所为使我无法集中精力做那些有趣的实验,而这一切使我非常恼火。设空处为谓语动词,and连接两个句子的时态应该一致,应用一般过去时。故填annoyed。
【49题详解】
考查形容词。句意:我不再感到尴尬或害怕。or在否定句中表示并列关系,awkward为形容词,因此设空处也应为形容词。故填frightened。
【50题详解】
考查形容词。句意:相反,我开始觉得比今天早上自信多了。much修饰形容词比较级,confident为多音节词,故填more confident。
五、短文改错
51. 英语课上,老师要求同桌同学相互修改作文。假设以下小作文为你同桌所写,请你对其进行修改。文中共有10处错误,每句中最多有两处。错误涉及一个单词的增加,删除或修改。
增加:在缺词处加一个漏词符号(∧),并在此符号下面写出该加的词。
删除:把多余的词用斜线(\)划掉。
修改:在错的词下划一横线,并在该词下面写出修改后的词。
注意:1.每处错误及其修改均仅限一词。
2.只允许修改10处,多者(从第11处起)不计分。
Dear editor,
I am a high school student. A few days before, one of my good friend told me that he was going to drop out of school. He said that he wants to start his own business. I tried my best to get him change his mind, but I failed. I know it is difficult of him to change his mind. He is not doing so good in his studies, yet I insist that I should give it a try. The process is more important than the result. Now there is only 90 days left before the test. I am not sure that his decision is right or wrong. I need an advice.
Carol
【答案】1. before→ago
2. friend→friends
3. wants→wanted
4. get后him后加to
5. of→for
6. good→well
7.should前I→he
8. is→are
9. that→whether
10. 删掉an
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇应用文。文章是作者写给主编的信,讲述作者的好朋友想要退学,但作者想让他再试一试,作者不确定他的决定对还是不对,针对这个问题征求主编的建议。
【详解】1.考查副词。句意:几天前,我的一个好朋友告诉我他打算退学。句中涉及ago和before的区分,ago表示从现在起若干时间以前,副词词性,常与一般过去时连用;before表示从过去某时起若干时间以前,副词词性,常与完成时连用。根据句中told可知,句子为一般过去时,指从现在起几天以前,故应用ago,a few days ago意为“几天前”,符合句意。故before改为ago。
2.考查名词的数。friend为可数名词,上文为结构“one of+可数名词复数”可知,此处应用复数形式。故friend改为friends。
3.考查动词时态。此处为宾语从句,主句谓语动词said可知,为一般过去时,故宾语从句中也应用一般过去时。故wants改为wanted。
4.考查固定短语。句意:我尽力让他改变主意,但我失败了。结合句意表示“让某人做某事”可知,短语为get sb. to do sth.。故get后him后加to。
5.考查介词。句意:我知道对他来说改变主意很难。此处为句型“it be+ adj. + for sb. to do sth.”,意为“对某人来说做某事是……的”,句中表示对他来说改变主意很难。故of改为for。
6.考查副词。句意:他学习不太好,但是我坚持让他试一试。短语“do well in…”,意为“在……方面做得好”,句中指他在学习方面做的不好,即学习不太好。故good改为well。
7.考查代词。句意同上。结合语境可知此处是作者坚持让朋友,即“他”试一试,应用人称代词he。故should前I改为he。
8.考查主谓一致。there be句型中谓语动词与邻近的主语90 days保持一致,此处陈述客观事实,时态为一般现在时,故be动词应用are。故is改为are。
9.考查固定短语。句意:我不知道他的决定是对还是错。结合后文“his decision is right or wrong”以及句意表示“是……还是……”可知,短语为whether…or…。故that改为whether。
10.考查名词。advice为不可数名词,前面不能有冠词an。故删掉an。
