Ⅰ.阅读理解
I attended a Catholic (天主教的) grammar school for nine years.Later I decided to go to the public high school that I now attend.Why did I choose a public high school
The main purpose of going to school is to receive a good education that will help us become successful in the future.Both private and public schools give this opportunity.But public schools and private schools each give an entirely different social experience.The social experience, in my opinion, is much more important than the academic (学业的) experience, especially for a boy like me.
In my grammar school, most of the people I met were white, Catholic, and of the same learning ability.Every day at school, students were expected to wear uniform (统一的) clothes,have uniform hairstyles and learn at the same pace.Growing up, this is what I expected all schools were like.For nine years I didn't know that people of different religions (宗教) and learning paces existed in the real world.But the fact is that there are more types of people than Catholics and quick learners.For this reason, I decided to try something new by attending a public high school.
My freshman year of high school was an amazing eye-opener for me.I met different types of people.I have met people with long hair, short hair, black hair and purple hair.I have met people who are two years ahead of everyone else, and others who are two years behind.There are musicians, bookworms and others with interests outside the school.People can be whoever they want to be.
Meeting so many different students and teachers with so many different interests made me much more interested in meeting more people.This experience made me know how important the social part of a public high school really is.In the future, when I go to college and begin my career, I will be meeting and working with people who have different backgrounds.For this reason, I will never regret the decision I have made.

A.Because he wanted to become better at his studies.
B.Because he didn't want to learn grammar any longer.
C.Because he wanted to gain a useful social experience.
D.Because his parents couldn't afford to send him to the private school.
2.In the Catholic grammar school, the author .
A.often changed his hairstyle
B.had a terrible academic experience
C.often refused to wear uniform clothes
D.seldom met many different types of people
3.What do we learn about students in the author's grammar school?
A.Their academic experience isn't very different.
B.They can usually do whatever they like.

Advice for High School Students
As a person who is graduating from high school very soon, I have some suggestions for students in high school or students who are soon going to be high school students. 1. I am sure others can benefit from reading them and will not make similar mistakes like me.
2. Do not value first impression highly.Don't dismiss a person or an idea too early just because you immediately get a bad impression. You will miss many opportunities because of that. Although something seems bad at the first impression, it does not mean it is bad all the time. Try to give everything a fair chance.
Don't try to please everybody. There is no way you can please everybody or get everybody to agree with you. 3. It is a huge waste of time.
Have respect for authority. No matter how much you may dislike them, just remember that teachers and parents care about you and they are only doing their jobs. 4. Don't argue with them and just obey them.
Realize a high school is not the real world. The real world isn't a closed environment. 5. What is rewarded in high school such as popularity and agreement is different from what is rewarded in the real world. If high school isn't working out for you,you may find yourself better at handling the real world.
A.Do not be too quick to judge.
B.So just learn to say the word “No”a lot.
C.Listen to their advice and consider it carefully.
D.Many of these are based on regrets that I have.
E.Bad habits are hard to break and remain with you for a long time.
F.Don't spend any effort trying to please others who will never like you.
G.It is a free society where people accept responsibility for their actions.

文章大意:本文是一篇记叙文。作者已经中学毕业了,他根据自身的经验给已经上中学或即将进入中学的学生提出了四条建议。
解析:
1. 根据前文“I have some suggestions for students in high school or students who are soon going to be high school students”可知,作者要给正在上高中或即将进入高中的同学一些建议。再根据后文“I am sure others can benefit from reading them and will not make similar mistakes like me.”可知,这些建议对高中生很有好处,避免犯和作者一样的错误。由此可知,D项(很多都是基于我的遗憾。)承前启后。故选D。
2. 设空处为本段小标题。根据本段倒数第二句“Although something seems bad at the first impression,it does not mean it is bad all the time.(虽然一些事情第一印象很糟糕,但这并不意味着它一直都很糟糕。)”可知,A项(不要过于迅速地做出判断。)总结本段内容。故选A。
3. 根据本段第一句“Don't try to please everybody.(不要试图取悦所有人。)”可知,F项(不要花任何精力去取悦那些永远不会喜欢你的人。)与本段中心思想一致,且和后文“It is a huge waste of time.”呼应。故选F。
4.根据后文“Don't argue with them and just obey them.”可知,C项(听听他们的建议并认真思考。)引出后文。故选C。
5.根据前文“The real world isn't a closed environment.(真正的世界不是一个封闭的环境。)”可知,G项(它是一个自由的社会,人们为自己的行为承担责任。)承接上文。故选G。
Ⅲ.语法填空
阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
According to a recent survey, violence did exist in schools.Students showed their fear and parents and teachers also expressed their great concern about it.Experts hope the whole society pay more attention to the mental health of adolescents.

All in all, every student should behave 10.himself (he) and keep away from violence.
文章大意:本文是一篇议论文。文章向我们介绍了作者对校园暴力的看法。
解析:
1. 考查冠词。这里需要一个不定冠词表示泛指。故填a。
2. 考查定语从句。此处引导一个非限制性定语从句,因为先行词为物。故填which。
3.考查非谓语动词。不定式作目的状语。故填to prevent。
4. 考查连词。人身安全得不到保障是辍学的条件,所以应该用引导连接条件状语从句的连词。故填if。
5.考查语态。所给动词和其逻辑主语是动宾关系,所以要用被动语态。故填be guaranteed。
6.考查语态。事实上,暴力是可以被学的。故填be learned/learnt。
7. 考查宾语从句。此处引导一个宾语从句,并且在从句中作宾语。故填what。
8. 考查介词。表示方式,意思是“用”。故填with。
9. 考查比较级。由语境可知,以暴力对付暴力,只能产生更多的暴力。故填more。
10. 考查反身代词。behave oneself表现良好,行为良好。故填himself。
Ⅳ.应用文写作
