German High Schools德国的高中生活
In Germany there are different kinds of high schools. Some prepare students for workers, others prepare them for college. All schools are great places for making friends and learning German.21教育网
Short days
Most high schools in Germany begin at about 8:00 am and end at about 3:30 pm. This means your morning will be busy with classes. You will have time to do homework and take part in private (私人的) clubs after school.
Formal setting
In Germany, teachers and students' relationship is more formal than you might be used to. Teachers are respected and students must use the formal "Sie (德语, 您)" when talking to teachers.
Getting to school
Most students take public transport to school or ride a bicycle. Some areas have school buses. It is not common for parents to drive students to school.
Private clubs
In many countries, schools offer official sports and after-school activities. This is less common in Germany. After-school activities are usually organized through private clubs. There are clubs for things like soccer, dance, choir, theatre and almost everything else. Once you are in Germany, ask around at school and talk to other students to find out what private clubs are in your area and meet your interests.
Different states, different schools

Sleeping Positions Show People's Secret Personalities
睡姿暴露你的性格
Everyone has got two personalities-the one that is shown to the world and the other that is secret and real. You don't show your secret personality when you're awake because you can control yourself, but when you're asleep, your sleeping position shows the real you. In a normal night, of course, you often change your sleeping positions. The important position that best shows your secret personality is the one that you go to sleep.
If you go to sleep on your back, you're a very open person. You normally trust people and you are easily influenced by new ideas. You don't like to make people unhappy, so you never express your real feelings. You're quite shy and you aren't very confident.
If you sleep on your stomach, you are a person who likes to keep secrets. You worry a lot and you're always easily becoming sad. You never want to change your ideas, but you are satisfied with your life the way it is. You usually live for today not for tomorrow.
If you sleep on curled up (蜷缩), you are probably a very nervous person. You have a low opinion of yourself and often protect yourself from being hurt, so you are very defensive. You're shy and you don't usually like meeting people. You like to be on your own.
If you sleep on your side, you have usually got a well-balanced (平衡很好的）personality. You know your strengths and weaknesses. You're usually careful. You have a confident personality. You sometimes feel worried, but you don't often get unhappy. You always say what you think, even if it makes people angry.
1. You may find the passage in _____________．
A. a science magazine B. a guide book
C. a sports newspaper D. a story book
2. When does the sleeping position best show your secret personality?
A. In the daytime. B. At the beginning of sleep.
C. At night. D. During the deep sleep.
3. Tina hardly tells her secrets to her friends. She probably goes to sleep _____________.
A. on curled up B. on her stomach

Best Friends Forever永远的朋友
There are two families on Earth who want a baby girl, but there is only one girl waiting to be born. She turns herself into two girls, but each of the girls only has half of a heart. Years later, the two girls meet. When they come together, their hearts beat faster, and they feel complete again.
Do you ever feel like you and your best friend were once the same person, but were split (分裂) before birth? Do you want to spend every minute of every day with her? If you have a really, really good best friend, you might feel like you're incomplete when you are apart. In US middle schools, many girls show their feelings with a best friend's necklace (项链).
The best friend's necklace can take many forms. Usually, it is a heart split in two. It reads "best friends" and each one of the friends wears half of the necklace. Best friends may live far away from one another and not see each other for days or even years at a time. But the two pieces of the heart fit together perfectly when the friends reunite (重逢). If your very best friend is wearing her necklace, she has half of your heart.
Make a best friend's necklace and give one half of it to your best friend. Some girls make their own necklaces out of clay (泥土) or pieces out of jigsaw puzzle (拼图). Alone, the necklace doesn't make a lot of sense. But when your friend is there, and the pieces fit together, everything seems to be complete again.
1. Is the first paragraph about a true story?

2. What do US middle school girls usually make for their best friends?

Most of what I really need to know about how to live, and what to do, and how to be, I learned in kindergarten (幼儿园).　　21*cnjy*com
These are the things I learned: Share everything. Play fair. Don't hit people. Put things back where you found them. Clean up your own mess. Don't take things that aren't yours. Say you're sorry when you hurt somebody. Wash your hands before you eat. Live a balanced life. Learn some and think some and draw and paint and sing and dance and play and work some every day.
Take a nap (午睡) every afternoon. When you go out into the world, watch for traffic, hold hands, and stick together. Be aware of wonder. Remember the little seed (种子) in the plastic cup. The roots (根)go down and the plant goes up and nobody really knows how or why, but we are all like that.
Think of what a better world it would be if we all-the whole world-had cookies and milk at about 3 o'clock every afternoon and then lay down with our blankets (毯子) for a nap. Or if we had a basic policy (政策) to always put things back where we found them and clean up our messes. And it is still true, no matter how old you are, when you go out into the world, it is best to hold hands and stick together.

Test 3
一、完形填空
思路点拨：作者是英国人，到澳门旅游。由于皮肤很白（在英国不以白为美）而受到人们的注意。她认为这是很不礼貌的行为。但后来朋友告诉她，在东方人们是以白为美的。由此作者感慨：我们永会对自己已有的东西不觉得好。
答案解析：
1．A。come与后面的from搭配，表示“来自……”。
2．B。与T-shirt搭配穿的应是穿短裙，所以此空选填short。
3.D。前面说了英国的天气是“cold and cloudy”，因而有阳光的机会不多，所以此空选填chance。
4．C。构成短语not...at all表示“一点也不”的意思。
5．C。此句是指“大多数妇女抓紧每个有阳光的天气出门晒太阳”，所以此空选填sunny。
6．C。用nothing表示“一点作用都没有”。
7.D。因为是逛商店，所以用walk。
8．A。构成短语the whole time，表示“一直”的意思。
9．A。被别人谈论总是觉得不舒服的，所以此空应选填uncomfortable。
10.B。“what was wrong”用于询问发生了什么事（为什么急忙地离开）。
11．B。作者认为服务员在背后谈论别人是不礼貌，所以此空应选填impolite。
12.D。表示意思相反，应选用褒义词mce来说作者的腿很漂亮。
13.C。用in fact来说明实际情况。
14.D。构成短语be happy with...（对……满意）。
15.A。此处应是“思考”的意思，所以选用thought。
二、阅读理解
A
思路点拨：孩子的睡眠时间越来越少，而且也越来越不容易入睡，睡眠不足导致成绩下降、心情不好，其原因就是上学的孩子经常在卧室里使用电话、看电视或玩电脑。21·世纪*教育网
答案解析：
1．A．分析“Year 7 students sleep 8.4 hours in a school night，and Year 9 students only 6.9 hours"这句话可以得知：七年级的孩子休息时间比九年级的孩子多。故选A。2-1-c-n-j-y
2．B。从第二段中的最后一句“Scientists suggest nine hours a night for middle school students”可知选B。
3．D。前面三个选项(A、B和C)在文中第二段的第二句均出现了，只有选项D没有出现，故选D。
4．C。本文一开始就给出主题内容：据报道，许多中学生的睡眠时间不够，尤其是在上学日期间。标题体现文章的主题，所以选项C为正确答案。
B
思路点拨：年龄大了并不是意味着人就老了，人们的思想要永葆年轻。
答案解析：
1．B。读短文第一段第三句可知在二十世纪初，即一百多年前，人的平均寿命为45岁。故选B。
2．A。通读第三段再理解本句，讲的是人们对于年龄的变大不应有错误的想法。故选A。
3．D。理解Alice Brophy所说的话，她不高兴的原因是她认为自己不怎么老。故选D。
4．C。A、B两项与文章的意思正好相反，D项不符合逻辑关系，只有C项讲没有思想的人才是老了，故选C。
三、任务型阅读
思路点拨：本文告诉我们在幼儿园里会学到许多生活准则，长大后仍然有用。
1．In kindergarten.
2. Do what we want to do every day.
3. Put it back where we found it.
4．Wash our hands.
