Unit 1 Life Choices
单元话题阅读理解练习
（2022 秋 ·广西南宁 · 高一南宁市邕宁高级中学校考阶段练习）These next three years in senior high school may see many relationships coming to an end, a lot of drama between people, and especially a lot of stress (压力).
During these next years, you’ll experience a lot, and hopefully, this advice could be of use to you.
First of all, high school is not how the movies show it to be. There are no life-changing things that make you popular, and there are no big parties where teens enjoy themselves together and new friends are made. The reality is that you’ll stay up till three in the morning doing homework, the food in the school isn’t the best, and you will
cry about everything.
Just know walking through this next part of your life won’t be a simple walk in the park. You will go through difficulties, but at the end of the day, you’ll decide whether they’re going to influence you or not. While going
through a difficult or unpleasant time, know that whatever happens these experiences don’t define (界定) you.
These next moments will be happy, mad, sad, etc. There will be amazing good days, and awful bad ones. Be yourself because many comments will be made about you, your friends, your attitude (态度), and everything in your life. Aside from those people that cause drama, make bad comments about you, and hurt you, there are people who love you and want the best for you. Learning this will take time and you’ll be hurt, but you will be
okay. So, in a word, a high school is a work in progress.
High school only comes along once, so make the most of it because very quickly you’ll be shaking your
principal’s (校长的) hand while they hand you your high school diploma (毕业证书).

（2022 秋 · 重庆 · 高一重庆市两江育才中学校校考阶段练习）Do you ever find yourself studying really hard for a test but ultimately (最终) not doing so well You spent hours reviewing your notes, only to receive a grade
that doesn’t reflect your hard work. It’s not that you’re not smart — it’s just that you’re studying the wrong way.
When I was younger, I did the good old-fashioned method of staring at my notes for two hours and hoping the content would magically stick with me. What I didn’t realize at the time was that reading over my notes was not an efficient way of studying. I often spaced out, or gave myself “little breaks” to check social media because I
was bored out of my mind. I was hardly retaining any of the information I was reading.
If you’re anything like younger me, please stop staring at your notes, hoping you’ll remember everything. Start studying in a more engaging way. Below are a couple of active studying methods that I found worked best
for me.
Method #1: Try explaining the concepts/theories that you’re studying to family members or friends. If you
can explain it to them to a point where they can understand it, then that means you understand it.
Method #2: Create compare-and-contrast tables for different concepts/theories. This helps our brain with categorizing information. If you can fill up a table, that means you know enough about them. Understanding their
similarities and differences will also be helpful for a test.
Method #3: Study with friends. If you’re able to stay focused, studying with a group might be more fun and motivating than studying alone. It’s also great to hear other people’s thoughts on the course material in case there’s anything you missed or misinterpreted ( 理解). Pick potential test topics and hold discussions to gain
insight (洞察) into different ways of thinking about a problem.
Method #4: This one shouldn’t be much of a surprise — flashcards. Flashcards are a great way to memorize
important material! To make it more fun, write your flashcards using colorful pens and highlight important parts.
Try using some of these methods when you study for your next test, and see if you’ve improved. Studying can be boring, but finding ways to make it more fun can really help you do well on your tests. So don’t lose
motivation — you’ve got this!
5 ．According paragraph 2, which is right
A ．Staring at my notes for two hours is a good way.
B ．The content would magically stick with me.
C ．I could not realize reading over my notes was an efficient method at that time.
D ．I could hard keep any information I was reading.
6 ．Which method may an outgoing child prefer
A ．Method #1 and Method #2 B ．Method #1 and Method #3
C ．Method #3 and Method #4 D ．Method #2 and Method #3
7 ．How many methods does the writer talk about in the passage
A ．3 B ．4 C ．5 D ．6
8 ．According to this writer, which method is more useful
A ．explaining the concepts to his favorite dog B ．creating tables or desks for studying
C ．work by his or with his classmates D ．using flashcard

（2023 秋·湖南长沙· 高一统考期末）If you move to a new school, you’ll have to worry about whether or not
you’ll make friends. Here are some simple suggestions which help you make new friends easier.
Try speaking to those you’re sitting next to in class. As they’re close by, it makes sense to communicate
with them first.

them at lunchtime and after school.
Join a lunchtime or after school club. You’ll get chances to chat with kids of all years that way.
Use your “celebrity status (名人身份)”! Since you’re the new person, you’ll have gained “celebrity status”, which you can use for a couple of weeks. You should listen carefully to what others say so as to make them feel
important to us.
As you grow older, it’s natural to make new friends and sometimes that means you grow apart from your old
friend. So try and make time for all your friends.
But what if a friendship group is pushing you out (排斥) If this is happening to you, try and ask someone
what is happening. If the whole group is leaving you out, try to find new people to spend time with.

（2023 秋 · 河北保定 · 高一统考期末）I knew that my first day of high school would be challenging. There would be higher expectations than middle school and the teachers would be stricter. I missed my classmates a lot,
hoping this year would be a good year.
On Monday morning, I was preparing for my first day of high school. My backpack was filled with materials I needed, such as pencils, notebooks and a binder. I walked into the school feeling nervous. Even though I had
walked through school gates every day in middle school, this felt different.
According to the curriculum schedule (课程表), my first class was math. The math teacher was actually very nice and I like her from the start. Then came the next three classes, which made me feel it was not so difficult to
study in high school.
After lunch, I had a biology class. While I was waiting for the teacher in my seat, my friend from middle school walked in and sat next to me. It made me feel good to know that I knew someone in this class. My biology
teacher gave us some advice about high school—stay organized and focused.
I knew this year was going to be a different year. Realizing that I was growing up to be an adult, I set some goals in my mind. Clearly, the first day of high school was not bad, I was happy with most of my teachers,

（2023 春 · 黑龙江大庆 · 高一大庆实验中学校考阶段练习）My philosophy (哲学) professor was a typical
eccentric philosopher, whose behavior was a bit strange. His disheveled (蓬乱的) appearance was highlighted by a well-worn tweed sport coat and poor-fitting thick glasses, which often rested on the tip of his nose. Every now and then, as most philosophy professors do, he would dig into one of those existential “what’s the meaning of life” discussions. Many of those discussions went nowhere, but there were a few that really hit home. This was one of
them:
“Respond to the following questions by a show of hands,” my professor instructed.
“How many of you can tell me something about your parents ” Everyone’s hand went up.
“How many of you can tell me something about your grandparents ” About three-fourths of the class raised
their hands.
“How many of you can tell me something about your great-grandparents ” Two out of sixty students raised
their hands.
“Look around the room,” he said. “In just two short generations hardly any of us even know who our own great-grandparents were. Oh sure, maybe we have an old photograph stored away in a musty cigar box or know the classic family story about how one of them walked five miles to school barefoot. But how many of us really know who they were, what they thought, what they were proud of, what they were afraid of, or what they dreamed about Think about that. Within three generations our ancestors (祖先) are all but forgotten. Will this happen to
you ”
“Here’s a better question. Look ahead three generations. You are long gone. Instead of you sitting in this room, now it’s your great-grandchildren. What will they have to say about you Will they know about you Or
will you be forgotten, too ”
“Is your life going to be a warning or an example What legacy (遗产) will you leave The choice is yours.
Class is over.”
Nobody rose from their seats for a good five minutes.
21 ．Which of the following can best describe the professor
A ．Untidy but considerate. B ．Fashionable and helpful.
C ．Neat and responsible. D ．Odd but thoughtful.
22 ．Why does the professor mention “photograph” and “family story” in Paragraph 6
A ．To share his own interesting stories.
B ．To suggest new ways to know the ancestors.
C ．To indicate people’s understanding of the ancestors are shallow.
D ．To prove they are good ways to know the ancestors.
23 ．What can we know about this philosophy class
A ．It went nowhere like the previous ones.
B ．It inspired our thinking about life.
C ．The professor was discontent with our answers.
D ．The professor offered us his answers to the questions.

（2023·高一课时练习）Your math teacher wears clothes made in 1985 and always mispronounces your name. Your English teacher loves to start classes with quick quizzes. It can be hard to think of these givers of grades as real people. But they eat pizza, watch movies and enjoy sports on weekends, just like you. So how can
you get along well with your teachers
You can do a lot of things to develop a good relationship with your teacher. First, do the obvious things: Show up in class on time with all tasks completed. Stay focused, be respectful and ask questions. Second, show an interest in the subject. Obviously, your teachers are really interested in their subjects, or they wouldn’t have decided to teach them! Show the teacher that you care about the subject—even if you’re not a math talent or fluent
in French—and send the message that you are a hard-working student.
You can also schedule a private meeting in a teacher’s free time. Use this time to get extra help, ask questions, ask for information about a career (职业) in the subject or talk about your progress in class. You may be surprised to learn that your teacher is a bit more relaxed when only facing you than when teaching in front of the
whole class.
What if you just don’t like the teacher When it comes to working with teachers, one’s characteristics can come into play just as they can in any other relationships. People just naturally get along better with some people than with others; it’s impossible to like everyone all the time. Learning to work with people you don’t like is a
good interpersonal (人际的) skill to have in life, no matter what your goals are.
Teachers are there for more than just homework; they know about more than their subject matters. They can help you learn how to behave as an adult and lifelong learner. Undoubtedly, there will be a few teachers along the
way who you’ll always remember—and who might change your life forever.
25 ．How can students develop a good relationship with their teachers
A ．By learning as many subjects as possible.
B ．By respecting other students in class.
C ．By finishing their homework on time.
D ．By developing personal interests.
26 ．What is important when working with teachers you don’t like
A ．Your characteristics.
B ．Your interpersonal skills.
C ．Your career goals.
D ．Your grades in exams.
27 ．What can we learn from the last paragraph
A ．Teachers can help you grow up.
B ．Teachers are all lifelong learners.
C ．Teachers should set enough homework.
D ．Teachers tend to change you completely.
（2023 春 · 广西来宾 · 高一象州县中学校考阶段练习） Students usually go to school from Monday to
Friday. But some schools in the USA are getting shorter weeks. Classes go for four days instead of five.
There are some reasons for this change. School leaders hope longer weekends may give teachers a good rest.
And schools could spend less money on buses or electricity.
But is a four-day school week better for students and parents
Some experts did research to find out the effects. They talked to people about the change. “Some people really like it,” said Christopher Doss, an expert. “Parents get to spend more time with their kids. And they think
everyone can be less stressed and sleep more.”
The experts didn’t just want opinions though. They looked at the data. “In fact, we could not find a lot of data to support the parents,” Doss said. Parents did spend more time with their kids. But the study didn’t find that they
were less stressed.
The experts also discovered a problem. “We found that kids probably learned a little less every year,” Doss said. “That can add up to a lot less.” So the question is while the change is welcomed, is it worth having kids learn
less
Many students have their own ideas about the change. “I think weeks should be four days,” Chris said. “Every Sunday, I wish for just one more day to prepare for school.” Maya is more in the middle. “I don’t mind a
four-day week, but I still like school,” she said. “The bad side is that Tuesday will feel like Monday!”
Are you for a four-day week Or are you OK with five
28 ．What are the reasons that some schools in the USA are getting shorter weeks
①To save money.
②To give teachers a good rest.
③To make parents less stressed.
④To help kids get better prepared for school.
A . ②③ B . ①② C . ③④ D . ②④
29 ．What kind of data did the experts fail to find
A ．Those to support students’ ideas.
B ．Those to support school leaders ‘ideas.
C ．Those to show parents were less stressed.
D ．Those to show parents spent more time with their children.
30 ．What problem did the experts find about the four-day school week
A ．Students learned less.
B ．Students had busier weekends.
C ．Parents had less time to care for their kids.
D ．Parents had to learn to teach their kids by themselves.
31 ．In which part of a website can we read the text
A ．Travel. B ．Culture. C ．History. D ．Education.
