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.
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!
Eddie, Aged 20
When I started high school I was really nervous too, especially since I had been home-schooled 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 after you know it.
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.

B
Once I spoke at a high school. After the speech I was asked to see a special student. An illness had kept the boy at home, but he had expressed an interest in meeting me, and it would mean a great deal to him. I agreed. He was Matthew. When he was born, the doctor told his parents that he would not live to see five, then they were told he would not make it to ten. Now he was thirteen. He wanted to meet me because I was a gold-medal weight lifter, and I knew about overcoming obstacles(障碍) and going for my dreams.
I spent over an hour talking to Matthew. Never once did he complain(抱怨). He spoke about winning and succeeding and going for his dreams. He knew what he was talking about. He just talked about his hopes for the future, and how one day he wanted to lift weight with me.
When we finished talking, I went to my briefcase and pulled out the first gold medal I won and put it around his neck. I told him he was more of a winner and knew more about success and overcoming obstacles than I ever would. He looked at it for a moment, then took it off and handed it back to me. He said, “You are a champion(冠军). You earned that medal. Someday when I get to the Olympics and win my own medal, I will show it to you.”
Last summer I got the news that Matthew had died and a letter Matthew had written me a few days before:
Dear Rick,
My mom said I should send you a thank-you letter for the picture you sent me. The doctors tell me that I don’t have long to live any more. But I still smile as much as I can.
I told you some day I was going to the Olympics and win a gold medal. But I know now I’ll never make it. But I know I’m a champion, and God knows that too. When I get to Heaven, God will give me my medal and when you get there, I will show it to you.
Thank you for loving me.
Your friend,
Matthew

How can English be learned well In my view, keeping up with teachers is a good way. Teachers are experienced and their plans are effective. But remember to work in a way that suits you. It’s important to learn from past mistakes as well. Keep a notebook to make a record of the mistakes you make — it’ll help you avoid making the same ones later.
The school life may be hard, but you’re not alone. You may be busy studying, but you can show your care by calling your friends or sending short messages. Don’t let your friendships die.
It’s as important to live well as it is to study well. Going to bed no later than 11: 30 pm is important. It puts you in the right state for the next day. You needn’t follow a special diet, but make sure you are eating healthy meals each day.
The person who plays well studies well. Having a lot of schoolwork doesn’t mean having to quit other activities. Playing basketball or having a talk with your classmates can relax yourself. Time out is not a waste of time but helps you study more efficiently.
Besides taking the College Entrance Examination, you have other choices for college. Some students even apply for studying abroad. Pay attention to the useful information you can find, whether it’s from school, the news media or other sources.
8. What should you do if you want to keep your friendship fresh
A. Have small talks with them. B. Always have lunch with them.
C. Make them at some distance. D. Keep connected by some means.
9. The third paragraph is mainly about
A. Health. B. Study. C. Relaxation. D. Friendship.
10. What does the underlined phrase Time out in Paragraph 4 probably mean
A. An activity without a break. B. Sleeping outdoors.
C. A break from studying. D. Studying outside.
11. Who is the passage mainly written for
A. Teachers. B. Students. C. Parents. D. Leaders.
D
One characteristic (特征) of shyness is to feel frightened and nervous in new social situations or when being the center of attention. Whether shyness is part of your child’s personality or just something they feel when they are in front of a group of strangers, it is a common experience, according to a study.
To look at shyness, researchers brought 152 children aged 7-8 into a lab and told them they would give a speech which would be filmed and shown to other children. The study showed that about 40% of the children showed a level of stress when giving the speech. About 25% of the children were not thought to be shy by their parents, but in fact showed a level of social stress from giving the speech. This finding proves the fact that shyness is more common than we think.
For children at this age, shyness may be a normal experience when they face a speech task. For a smaller group of shy children, however, being the center of attention may be stressful at different times and environments.
Shy people aren’t always valued by society like outgoing ones but that doesn’t mean there is something wrong. Everyone can feel shy at times depending on the environment. And those who are shy often have happy social lives—they just aren’t likely to be the liveliest (最活泼的) people in a crowded room.
Although shyness itself may not be a problem, parents should pay attention to signs of stress in their shy children. Importantly, however, we know that not all shy children are the same, and that many shy children grow up to be happy adults
12. What can we learn about shyness from paragraph 1
A. Shyness is something we are born with. B. Shyness is not unusual.
C. Shyness is the center of attention. D. Shyness means not talking to others.
13. What did researchers find during the study
A. Some kids got stressed while giving speeches.
B. Few kids like to give a speech to others.
C. Some kids appear more shy with their parents.
D. Some kids are stressed when being separated.
14. What does the author advise parents to do when facing shy children
A. Bring them to crowded spaces. B. Encourage them to be braver.
C. Watch for signs of pressure. D. Try to give them more time alone.
15. What can be the best title for the text
A. When are people shy B. Ways of beating shyness
C. Why is shyness a bad thing D. A discovery about shyness

How can English be learned well In my view, keeping up with teachers is a good way. Teachers are experienced and their plans are effective. But remember to work in a way that suits you. It’s important to learn from past mistakes as well. Keep a notebook to make a record of the mistakes you make — it’ll help you avoid making the same ones later.
The school life may be hard, but you’re not alone. You may be busy studying, but you can show your care by calling your friends or sending short messages. Don’t let your friendships die.
It’s as important to live well as it is to study well. Going to bed no later than 11: 30 pm is important. It puts you in the right state for the next day. You needn’t follow a special diet, but make sure you are eating healthy meals each day.
The person who plays well studies well. Having a lot of schoolwork doesn’t mean having to quit other activities. Playing basketball or having a talk with your classmates can relax yourself. Time out is not a waste of time but helps you study more efficiently.
Besides taking the College Entrance Examination, you have other choices for college. Some students even apply for studying abroad. Pay attention to the useful information you can find, whether it’s from school, the news media or other sources.
8. What should you do if you want to keep your friendship fresh
A. Have small talks with them. B. Always have lunch with them.
C. Make them at some distance. D. Keep connected by some means.
9. The third paragraph is mainly about
A. Health. B. Study. C. Relaxation. D. Friendship.
10. What does the underlined phrase Time out in Paragraph 4 probably mean
A. An activity without a break. B. Sleeping outdoors.
C. A break from studying. D. Studying outside.
11. Who is the passage mainly written for
A. Teachers. B. Students. C. Parents. D. Leaders.
【答案】8. D 9. A 10. C 11. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了如何才能学好英语的方法。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“You may be busy studying, but you can show your care by calling your friends or sending short messages.(你可能忙于学习,但你可以通过给朋友打电话或发短信来表达你的关心)”可知,想要让友谊保鲜,就应该通过某种方式保持联系。故选D。
【9题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段“It’s as important to live well as it is to study well. Going to bed no later than 11: 30 pm is important. It puts you in the right state for the next day. You needn’t follow a special diet, but make sure you are eating healthy meals each day.(好好生活和好好学习一样重要。晚上睡觉不迟于11:30很重要,它会让你第二天处于正确的状态。你不需要遵循特殊的饮食,但要确保你每天都吃健康的食物)”可知,该段主要讲述了要保持良好的生活习惯和饮食习惯,以保证身体健康。故选A。
【10题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第四段“Having a lot of schoolwork doesn’t mean having to quit other activities. Playing basketball or having a talk with your classmates can relax yourself.(有很多作业并不意味着要放弃其他活动,打篮球或和同学聊天可以放松自己)”可知,在高强度的学习期间,可以进行打篮球或聊天等其他活动,使自己得以休息和放松,学习效率也会得到相应提高;可见学习期间的休息不是浪费时间,而是能够帮助你提高学习效率。由此可知,划线词组“Time out”意为“学习期间的休息”。故选C。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“How can English be learned well In my view, keeping up with teachers is a good way.(怎样才能学好英语 在我看来,紧跟是一个好方法)”和最后一段“Besides taking the College Entrance Examination, you have other choices for college.(除了参加高考,你还有其他选择上大学)”及全文内容可知,本文主要是写给即将上大学的中学生的。故选B。

One characteristic (特征) of shyness is to feel frightened and nervous in new social situations or when being the center of attention. Whether shyness is part of your child’s personality or just something they feel when they are in front of a group of strangers, it is a common experience, according to a study.
To look at shyness, researchers brought 152 children aged 7-8 into a lab and told them they would give a speech which would be filmed and shown to other children. The study showed that about 40% of the children showed a level of stress when giving the speech. About 25% of the children were not thought to be shy by their parents, but in fact showed a level of social stress from giving the speech. This finding proves the fact that shyness is more common than we think.
For children at this age, shyness may be a normal experience when they face a speech task. For a smaller group of shy children, however, being the center of attention may be stressful at different times and environments.
Shy people aren’t always valued by society like outgoing ones but that doesn’t mean there is something wrong. Everyone can feel shy at times depending on the environment. And those who are shy often have happy social lives—they just aren’t likely to be the liveliest (最活泼的) people in a crowded room.
Although shyness itself may not be a problem, parents should pay attention to signs of stress in their shy children. Importantly, however, we know that not all shy children are the same, and that many shy children grow up to be happy adults
12. What can we learn about shyness from paragraph 1
A. Shyness is something we are born with. B. Shyness is not unusual.
C. Shyness is the center of attention. D. Shyness means not talking to others.
13. What did researchers find during the study
A. Some kids got stressed while giving speeches.
B. Few kids like to give a speech to others.
C. Some kids appear more shy with their parents.
D. Some kids are stressed when being separated.
14. What does the author advise parents to do when facing shy children
A. Bring them to crowded spaces. B. Encourage them to be braver.
C. Watch for signs of pressure. D. Try to give them more time alone.
15. What can be the best title for the text
A. When are people shy B. Ways of beating shyness
C. Why is shyness a bad thing D. A discovery about shyness
【答案】12. B 13. A 14. C 15. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍的是一项研究表明无论害羞是孩子性格的一部分,还是他们在一群陌生人面前的感觉,这都是一种常见的经历。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Whether shyness is part of your children’s personality or just something they feel when they are in front of a group of strangers, it is a common experience, according to a study. (一项研究表明,无论害羞是孩子性格的一部分,还是他们在一群陌生人面前的感觉,这都是一种常见的经历。)”可知,一项研究表明,无论害羞是孩子性格还是在陌生人前的感觉,害羞是一种常见的经历,由此可知,害羞是孩子很常见的特征。故选B项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The study showed that about 40% of the children showed a level of stress when giving the speech. About 25% of the children were not thought to be shy by their parents, but in fact showed a level of social stress from giving the speech. (研究表明,大约40%的孩子在演讲时表现出一定程度的压力。大约25%的孩子在父母看来并不害羞,但事实上,他们在演讲时表现出一定程度的社会压力。)”可知,研究表明大约40%的孩子演讲时表现的有不同程度的压力,25%的孩子在父母看来并不会害羞,但他们在演讲时都会有一定程度的社会压力,由此可知,孩子们在演讲的时候会有些压力。故选A项。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据尾段中的“Although shyness itself may not be a problem, parents should pay attention to signs of stress in their shy children. (虽然害羞本身可能不是问题,但父母应该注意害羞孩子的压力迹象。)”可知,害羞本身可能不是问题,但是家长要注意害羞的孩子的压力迹象,由此可知,作者建议家长要注意害羞孩子的压力迹象。故选C项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“Whether shyness is part of your child’s personality or just something they feel when they are in front of a group of strangers, it is a common experience, according to a study. (一项研究表明,无论害羞是孩子性格的一部分,还是他们在一群陌生人面前的感觉,这都是一种常见的经历。)”以及后文对这一发现的研究和分析可知,文章主要讲述的是关于害羞的发现,所以本文的题目为“害羞的发现”符合本文的内容,且可以概括本文的主题。故选D项。

My English Learning
In the first few weeks at senior high school, learning English was a really big challenge for me.

【答案】 My English Learning
In the first few weeks at senior high school, learning English was a really big challenge for me. There were so many strange words that I couldn’t follow the teacher in class. Besides, I found it difficult to express myself in English, which made me less confident.
With the problems in mind, I turned to my English teacher, who gave me some useful advice. According to what she told me, I began to read some short passages and take notes of the new words. Gradually, my vocabulary was increasing. What’s more, in order to improve my oral English, I made every effort to practice speaking English in school and watch English programmes at home.
At present, I have no difficulty getting involved in class and I am even brave to sign up for an English speech contest. I believe the harder I work, the greater progress I will make.
