Unit 1 A New Start 话题阅读专练
一、阅读理解
A
We had a military training ( 军训)for a whole week in late August after stepping into our new senior high school. The military coaches were all strict with us. Frankly speaking, we all felt very tired, and even had pains in
our legs. However, we all persisted in practising, and felt satisfied with ourselves eventually.
In the morning we arrived at the playground in lines on time. Then you could hear our military coaches shout at the top of their voices“Stand at attention”, “Stand at ease”,“Turn left”,“March”,“Run…”, All the students were practicing carefully. Exhausted as we were, none of us asked to have a rest, none of us complained, none of us wanted to drop out. Under the blazing sun, despite high temperature and thirst, we stood still for an hour with sweat dripping down from our faces all the time. In the moonlight, we played games heartily, bursting into laughter now and then. On the grass, divided into two groups, we competed to sing encouraging military songs in high spirits one after another. At the meeting, hearing their moving speech, we felt regretful for wasting time before. At that time we realized we should have been grateful to our parents and teachers, with tears in our eyes. And we all made up our minds to study harder. On the afternoon of the last day, our principal sang high praise for our behaviour, and
encouraged us to keep this persistent spirit in future.
Though this military training is a tough experience, we challenged ourselves and overcame those difficulties. We felt proud from the bottom of our hearts. There is no doubt that this military training has left a deep and durable
impression on me, on all my classmates.

As I walked into the primary school, I looked down at my new black Mary Jane shoes—I wanted to be
anywhere in the world but Fountain Inn Elementary School.
I stood at Mrs. Blackstone’s door. Before I tried the great escape, the wooden door suddenly opened to the
loud voice of Mrs. Blackstone, my new fifth grade teacher.
“We’ve been waiting for you!” She said loudly. With a smile my mom walked away and I was left standing in
front of a group of students.
Over the next few days, Mrs. Blackstone made it her job to find me a new best friend. During history lessons, when I didn’t want to speak in front of the class, she’d not only call on me but have me stand up to address my
classmates.
One spring afternoon, Mrs. Blackstone asked me to stay after class.
“I’d like to speak with you, Amanda.”My mind raced. Had I made a bad grade Had I hurt someone’s
feelings
“Are you enjoying your new school ” She sat comfortably behind her desk.
“I want to tell you something, between you and me, not to be shared with anyone else.” With her eyebrows raised she continued, “I see something special in you. The way you communicate with others, the kindness you
show—I think you have great potential to be something very important.”
I listened attentively to every word.“I’ve been a teacher for over twenty-five years; I can see it. But you must
believe in yourself. That’s very important. Remember that and you’ll go far.”
She then hugged me and said, “See you tomorrow.”Her singsong voice was music to my ears that day. I walked out of her class, not staring at my Mary Jane shoes, but looking straight ahead with my head high. My
teacher saw something special in me!

With the start of the new term, the students around the country exchange their fun and fashionable clothes for boring school uniforms. But not all schools are fashion deserts. Colorful sports shoes, school bags, T-shirts and
even drink containers are breathing life into campuses.
“The uniform makes us look like a bunch of clones, especially when we are doing morning exercises on the playground,” said Qing Pei, a Senior 2 from Shanghai Qibao High School. “But the boys wear different sports shoes and girls have different decorations in their hair. These are the areas where you can express yourself,” said
Qing.
Although it might be strange for boys to talk about fashion, they do care about what they wear in school,
especially shoes, according to Qing.
“Nike and Adidas basketball shoes, although they are still the must-have items for many of my friends, are becoming out-of-date,” Qing added. He explained that “Since Liu Xiang ran so fast in Athens, running shoes are
becoming popular in this autumn.”
“Still in fashion are the various baseball caps and American-style T-shirts with random ( 随意 的) English words printed on them,” said Qing. “The accuracy of the written message is not important. Often, the words are
misspelt. Sometimes they do not even make sense,” Qing said with a smile.
Besides sports shoes and T-shirts, styles and colors of school bags are another opportunity for students to express their taste in fashion. Some bags are made more eye-catching by decorating them with small hanging dolls.
Other fashionable items are the colorful drink containers which are now popular among girls this term.
“Some teachers are surprised to see a teenager sucking a bottle like this at school and criticize it as a childish regression ( 退化). But some girls just love it,” said Yang Rui, a Senior 3. from High School attached to Xi’an
Jiaotong University.

High school is more than just attending classes and trying to get good grades. Students can take full advantage of the opportunities high school offers them to explore their interests and interact with fellow students in activities
and clubs.
Honor Societies
For students who do well academically or artistically, there are organizations like the National Honor Society,
National Science Honor Society and National Art Honor Society that reward students whose achievements are superior. Students who desire to be a part of high school honor societies are required to have grade point averages of at least 3.0, on a 4.0 scale, and may have to get nominated (提名) by teachers or request recommendation letters. While these organizations focus on scholarship, they also teach members leadership skills and encourage
community service.
Sports and Athletics Clubs
Whether formally joining a sports team or simply participating in school activities, high schools offer students a wide range of sports and athletics clubs. Helping students stay active and healthy, these clubs teach students the
importance of teamwork, patience and practice.
Community Service Organizations
Organizations like the Key Club International and Habitat for Humanity help students give back to their communities by participating in structured service learning activities. From cleaning a local park to distributing (分 配) Thanksgiving baskets to the homeless, these organizations teach children the importance of reaching out a
helping hand to those in need.
Career Development Clubs
Determining the right career path comes from exploring different options to learn what each career requires and how it fits your interests. High schools develop clubs and organizations dedicated to students who want to own businesses, become teachers, doctors, lawyers and actors, among many other careers. Students participating in these clubs are active in the community and often compete against students on local, regional and sometimes national levels. Clubs like DECA (an association of marketing students) and FBLA (Future Business Leaders of America) have students compete against one another to test their business skills. Other career-oriented clubs include
organizations for future teachers, debate and photography enthusiasts.
13 .Which of the following has a requirement for student achievements

C .Community Service Organizations. D .Sports and Athletics Clubs.
14 .What do Sports and Athletics Clubs and Community Service Organizations have in common
A .They both need students to work together.
B .They both teach students practical skills.
C .They both provide moral education for students.
D .They both build students' confidence.
15 .What is the purpose of Career Development Clubs
A .To help students with career planning. B .To train people for all walks of life.
C .To lead students to find their hobbies. D .To improve students' awareness of competition.
二、七选五
How often do you look back on your life and wish you had done things differently Most of you may say regret is at least an occasional part of your life, while some may feel regret “all the time”. Although filling your life with regrets is indeed bad for you, going to the other extreme may be even worse. To truly get over your guilt
requires that you put regret in its proper place. 16
Make a list of your regrets.
Write down why each regret bothers you and its lingering bad effects. Be honest without catastrophizing (小题 大做). For example, you may note that you hurt a friend’s feelings through your own fault. 17. .You
will find that a list is a lot less frightening than what you thought.
Forgive yourself.
After you make a mistake, life moves on. 18. .In other words, you have voluntarily chosen to punish yourself for a poor decision you made in the past. Now it is the time to forgive yourself by declaring: “I
make amends with myself and will not waste another minute of my life reliving a decision that cannot be changed.”
Look for the lesson.
Regret is like a school run by human nature. If you never experienced regret, you would keep repeating the same behaviors that led you to miss opportunities and wreck relationships in the past. 19. .In your list of regrets, also note how you want to change your behavior, and outline your resolutions going forward. Next,
list all the ways that you can invest in your own skills and improvement right now-and get started.
Regrets may hurt, but being trapped in them is destructive. Trying to live without them is a lost opportunity to
grow. Life is a journey full of pleasures and pains. 20.
A .Can you undo what caused the regret
B .Yet sometimes you just can’t stop kicking yourself.
C .Making a list of your regrets may free you from shame or sorrow.
D .Your regret can teach you to become smarter and more successful.
E .But you should also note that this certainly didn’t ruin the person’s life.
F .So, what can you do when you find yourself regretting for your past missteps
G .To live it well means learning from every bit of it, including the mistakes, and moving forward.
