Freshman(新生) year of high school is a big transition (过渡) for any student.
Luckily, you’re not the only person going through this, and plenty of others have made the transition before you too.
One of the ways in which high school is different from middle school or junior high the most is the higher expectations. You’ll find that you’re expected to keep closer track of your own schedule and responsibilities with fewer people checking up on you. At the same time, your classes are likely to become more challenging, and you might be participating in new school activities as well.
Some students find it hard to keep up with everything at first, which is totally normal. One way to prepare in advance for these higher expectations is to make sure that you have organized schedules in place before you start high school.
Another important skill for meeting these higher expectations is building a strong support network. No matter how strong a student you are, at some point you will need some help. Keeping healthy relationships with your friends and teachers is a great way to make sure that you have people who are willing to help when you need them.
Try to get to know at least some of your teachers beyond your classroom communication. Be an active learner during class and stay after class to ask questions. Take advantage of email or class messaging systems. The better your teachers know you, the better prepared they’ll be to help when you need them.
It’s important for you to keep in mind as you start high school that no one is perfect. Transitions are hard for everyone, and starting high school is a big transition. These challenges provide a great chance to reinvent (重塑) yourself.
24.In the author’s view, the biggest difference between high school and middle school is ________.
A.different relationships B.the higher pressure
C.high academic achievement D.the higher expectations
25.Which of the following suggestion is not mentioned in the text

C.Reinventing yourself. D.Using network information.
26.Who is the article written for

C.Parents of high school students. D.Students in senior high school.
27.What is the best title for the text

B.How to Become an Active Learner in High School
C.What to Prepare to Keep up with Everything in High School
D.How to Meet Your Teacher’s High Expectations

The COVID-19 pandemic had shut down Chicago, where Palmer Skudneski was living. Kerry Stutzman was visiting her 22-year-old son and saw how busy streets started looking empty. Stutzman started to worry about his safety. “There was this sense of — he's going to get stuck in this city with no family and be alone in his apartment,” Stutzman says. So, she invited her son to come back home to Colorado. She thought it wouldn't be long.
It was March 25, 2020. Two years later, Palmer is still living in Stutzman's home. But so much has changed since then, for Stutzman and her son.
Raising Palmer was among the most difficult challenges Stutzman faced as a parent. Palmer was just a punk ( 小混混) of a teenager. He was a really hard kid.
“There was a period when he hated me. He was really clear that he just couldn't stand me,” Stutzman says.
A painful divorce (离婚) had divided their family. Palmer was sad and full of anger. Stutzman kept trying to connect. But it felt like her son had put up a wall that was impossible to go through.
Finally, things got so bad that Stutzman sent Palmer for therapy ( 治疗). He came back much sweeter. But it wasn't long before he was off to college. Stutzman had to watch from afar as the boy she'd tried hard to raise began to grow up.
The pandemic finally gave her a chance to see the man her son had become. There were family dinners and heart-to-heart talks. The coffees and meals Palmer had refused as a teenager became time they both treasured.
For his part, Palmer says at first he dreaded returning home. “It sounded like it was going to be a terrible experience,” he says. “I wasn't loving the idea of having her tell me to put my dishes away.”
But Palmer found comfort in his mom's efforts (努力) to take care of their family. What's more, he had the chance to get to know her as a human, not just as a mom — seeing the happiness she gets from her work and the way she and his stepdad (继父) support each other.
28. What did Stutzman do when COVID-19 hit the city where Palmer lived
A. She canceled her plans to visit him.
B. She made a phone call to him every day.
C. She moved into his apartment to look after him.
D. She asked him to return home and live with her.
29. Which word best describes Stutzman's relationship with Palmer when he was a teenager
A. Close. B. Healthy. C. Poor. D. Uncertain.
30. What does the underlined word “dreaded” mean in paragraph 8
A. Suggested. B. Feared. C. Remembered. D. Risked.
31. In what way did Stutzman and Palmer change during COVID-19
A. They learned to live independently.
B. They valued their work more greatly.
C. They started seeing each other differently.
D. They got used to new means of communication.
D
Do you love seeing beautiful lanterns outside The best time to do this is during the Lantern Festival, which falls on the 15th day of the first lunar (阴历) month. This year it is on Feb22, marking the end of Spring Festival celebrations.
Lanterns are a big part of the festival. One story says that the bright lanterns show respect for gods. Another says that people light lanterns to celebrate the declining (消退的) darkness of winter.
Watching lanterns is a great event. You see lanterns in any sizes and shapes you can imagine, from animals to plants and flowers. To make this activity more fun, people paste (粘贴) riddles (谜语) on the lanterns. “Ten plus ten, still is ten, ten minus ten, again is ten.” Guess what It is a pair of gloves.
In some places, people like releasing sky lanterns, which are called Kongming lanterns. A sky lantern is a small hot air balloon made of paper, with an opening at the bottom, where there is a small fire source. When the bright lights fly high in the sky, people bless family members and make wishes. Releasing river lights is also a way to bless for each other. Usually, the lights are in the shape of a lotus (荷花).
In old times, the Lantern Festival was also romantic. At that time, young girls were not allowed to go out very often except during certain festivals. Therefore, looking at lanterns gave young people a chance to meet each other. A line from Xin Qiji, a poet during the Song Dynasty, shows this: “Anxiously, I searched for her in thousands, hundreds of ways. Suddenly I turned, and there she was in the declining light.”
32.When do people celebrate the Lantern Festival
A.On the 22nd day of the first lunar month.
B.On the 15th day of the first lunar month.
C.On the 22nd day of February every year.
D.On the 15th day of the first solar month.
33.Which of the following statements about the Lantern Festival is TRUE
A.People paste riddles to show off their knowledge.
B.Young girls were not allowed to go out on the day.
C.People light lanterns to drive animals away.
D.People make wishes when releasing lights.
34.How do you feel about the line from Xin Qiji
A.Sad. B.Scared. C.Romantic. D.Anxious.
35.What would be the best title for the text
A.The Origin of the Lantern Festival B.Celebrations of the Lantern Festival
C.River Lights on the Lantern Festival D.A day to Guess Lantern Riddles

Why is Chinese a Good Language to Learn
If there's one language in the world that's worth learning, it's the Chinese language. You must be wondering why. 36
Gain the job opportunities. With the steady development for decades, China has become the second largest economic power in the world while keeping closely connected with the west. 37 It helps a lot if you're looking to work in a career that involves dealing with Chinese buyers or suppliers.
Know about the history and culture. 38 In fact, China has had a significant say in the history of the world. It's agreed that four great inventions---namely paper-making, printing, gunpowder and the compass---made their way from China to Europe via the famous Silk Road. To really understand the contribution of this part of the world and have a deep insight into the history of Asia, speaking the language can be beneficial.
39 Chinese literature,both ancient and modern, comes from an entirely different cultural background than literature written in the West. To really appreciate it, however, you have to read it in the original language. Many works of Chinese literature haven't been translated into English, so you have no choice but to enjoy them as they stand. If you want to understand modern China, learning the Chinese language is vital.
Enjoy the food. In Britain, we're familiar with Chinese food---or at least, a Westernized version of it. By learning the Chinese language, you'll start to understand exactly what all of those words on the menu mean. In time, you might feel more comfortable ordering something that's a little bit less familiar. 40
A.Translate the literature.
B.Appreciate the literature.
C. Here come a few good reasons to learn the language.
D.Therefore, the ability to speak Chinese language is pretty valuable.
E. China is home to the history and culture that runs for thousands of years.
F. You might even develop an appreciation for Chinese food for its varieties.
G. Chinese culture has had a great influence on the world for thousands of years.

Senior high school began with meeting new friends, which was the most exciting part of that period. However, I noticed the 41 from junior high school right away since students around me were trying their best to get good 42 .
It was surprising for me to 43 that my friends were no longer willing to meet very often after school. This made me 44 that perhaps I failed to know the true 45 of the three years of high school. I should state that it became especially 46 after I talked to my best friend. He told me that he was really 47 because I seemed to have no plan when it came to 48 for college. To be completely honest, he was right.
49 for me, my best friend was wise and able to explain his point of 50 to me. Also, he offered to spend time studying with me and getting me ready for the test to make sure I did not 51 anything meaningful from the textbook. This was surprising for me since I was 52 that activities like reading textbooks could not be enjoyable. I was wrong, and this 53 taught me that having fun in high school does not just mean going to parties or spending time in cafés. Instead, you can have a( n) 54 experience that will also be worthwhile for your future.
I am glad that I was able to learn from this situation. Now, I am studying harder to 55 more knowledge and try to understand which subjects I am most interested in to find out what I want to study in the future.
41.A.comment B.advance C.difference D.impression
42.A.grades B.affairs C.debates D.effects
43.A.explain B.find C.expect D.remember
44.A.balance B.imagine C.explore D.realise
45.A.meaning B.beginning C.fact D.future
46.A.grey B.clear C.exact D.formal
47.A.annoyed B.excited C.concerned D.frightened
48.A.preparing B.searching C.applying D.leaving
49.A.Slowly B.Luckily C.Strangely D.Obviously
50.A.idea B.time C.sign D.view

M: The last time I did that, the teacher took it from me and told my parents.
W: Well, don’t take it into the classroom this time. (4)
Text 5
W: May I watch how you’re doing it
M: Sure. You dig a hole, put in the seed, cover it with soil, and then water it. (5)
Text 6
M: Excuse me, does this bus go to the train station (6)
W: No, this is the No. 22 bus and it’s only going as far as the shopping center. (6) You can take either the No. 96 or No. 42 bus.
M: Can I catch them at this stop
W: No, you can get on the No. 96 at the bottom of this road, and the No. 42 stops outside the museum.
M: Do you know which will be the first one to arrive
W: If you hurry, you might just catch the No. 42. (7) The next No. 96 won’t arrive until half an hour later. They both run every hour.

M: Yes, the doctor said that I’ve used it so much over the years that I’ve worn down the bone. (10) She said it was because I poured too many cups of tea for my wife.

W: You only play tennis once every month, but you’re on the golf course practically every day!

W: Good plan! What’s this place famous for
M: Hmm…Swiss army knives, clocks, watches…
W: Oh, don’t give them any of those!
M: Why not
W: In China, we believe that giving someone a knife means you want to “cut off” your relationship with them. (11)
