Starting high school can be difficult.
Everyone is nervous and nobody knows where to go for classes. Thinking about making new friends might make you feel nervous, too. But don’t worry. You are not alone. You are going to school with a group of students who are also your age, and we have several tips to share.
Forget your fear and just talk to someone.It might be easier said than done, but try to take a deep breath and voice. Don’t be afraid to approach people. Introduce yourself and start a conversation about something you have in common. Sit in the middle of the classroom with as many new friends around you as possible.
Join clubs.
Join after-school activities that interest you and make friends in the club. If you don’t join anything, you will be just going to class and then going home. Being in a club forces you to be more social.
Stay clean.
No one likes a bad smell that could knock someone over. Shower every day, brush your teeth and wash your hair. Try to make yourself look neat, whatever you wear.
Be respectful of people’s differences.
Everyone has his or her own opinion about the world and everyone believes in different things. It’s a good thing to have friends with different opinions because you can each share your own.
We hope these tips can help you. The Student Union is always ready to offer help. And you are welcome to join us!

As the sun sets and the city is enveloped in the peaceful cover of night, a new trend (趋势) is rising quietly across China: the 24-hour library. In addition to staying open 24 hours a day, and featuring a wide variety of books, these libraries are equipped with comprehensive study facilities, including water, electricity, power outlets and restrooms. Some even offer soft drink services and dining options.
For Ye, a 25-year-old from Weihai, East China’s Shandong Province, the local 24-hour library is an invaluable resource as she is preparing for the civil service exam. Hired full-time, she finds that traditional library hours do not meet her study needs. “The traditional local libraries usually open at 9 a. m. and close at 10 p. m., which isn’t convenient for working people like me. I can only devote myself to studying early in the morning or late at night,” Ye said.
Similarly, Ma, a 20-year-old sophomore from East China’s Anhui Province, often visits a 24-hour library in Huai’an. During long holidays such as the summer and winter vacations, she goes there almost every day, staying for up to nine hours each time to study subjects like computer science, English, and law, according to Ma. “This library is very quiet as many people are studying. It motivates me,” Ma noted, although she admitted that occasional noise can be a distraction.
A social media user surnamed Luo often visits a 24-hour library in Beijing’s Xicheng district. “The place is packed with more people reading than working, and others preparing for exams. The atmosphere is quite peaceful,” Luo told the Global Times. “There’s a noticeable increase in visitors at night, including seniors with children and professionals, but most go there to read. It feels quite relaxing. Now, besides cafes, there’s another place for me to go after work in the evening ,” Luo added.
According to a national reading survey, in April, the average Chinese adult read 4.75 physical books and 3.40 e-books in 2023. As of the end of 2023, China boasted 3,246 public libraries with a total collection of 1.44 billion books, marking a 5.6 percent increase from 2022.
4. What do we know about the 24-hour library
A. It shows the growing love for reading among Chinese citizens.
B. Readers can borrow and return books using the self-service machine.
C. Reading has become an important part of promoting public education.
D. We can invite authors where they share their thoughts and experiences with us.
5. What is the main reason Ye chooses to study at the 24-hour library
A. Because it provides a wide range of information resources.
B. Because it offers various choices and convenience.
C Because she enjoys the public study atmosphere.
D. Because she longs for the public cultural spaces.
6. How many physical books did the average Chinese adult read in 2023
A. 4.75. B. 3.40. C. 5.60. D. 1.44.
7. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. 24-hour libraries gain popularity across China.
B. The libraries are not just a leisure, but a way of life.
C. Readers go after a spiritual and cultural life.
D. There’s a noticeable increase in visitors to libraries.
C
As a child, there was nothing I liked better than Sunday afternoons at my grandfather's farm in western Pennsylvania. Surrounded by miles of winding stone walls, the house and field provided endless hours of fun for a city kid like me.
Since my first visit to the farm, I had wanted more than anything to be allowed to climb the stone walls surrounding the houses. My parents would never agree because the walls were so old that some stones were loose and falling. However, my idea to climb across those walls grew so strong that finally I had all my courage to enter the living room, where the adults had gathered after Sunday dinner.
“I want to climb the stone walls.” I said. “Heavens, no! You’ll hurt yourself!” The response was just as I'd expected. But before I left the room, I was stopped by my grandfather's loud voice. “Now hold on just a minute.” I heard him say. “Let the boy climb the stone walls. He has to learn to do things for himself.”
“Go,” he said to me, “and come and see me when you get back. ” For the next two and a half hours I climbed those old walls — and had the time of my life. Later I met with my grandfather to tell him about my adventures. I’ll never forget what he said. “Fred,” he said, smiling, “you made this day a special day just by being yourself. Always remember, there's only one person in this whole world like you, and I like you exactly as you are.”
Many years have passed since then, and today I host the television program Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood, seen by millions of children throughout America. There have been changes over the years, but one thing remains the same: my message to children at the end of almost every visit. “There’s only one person in this whole world like you,” the kids will hear me say, “and people can like you exactly as you are.”
8. Why did the writer enjoy his visits to the farm
A. There were old stone houses. B. He could experience new fun there.
C. He missed his grandfather. D. He was allowed to climb the stone walls.
9. Which of the following statements is true
A. The writer didn’t expect his parents’ disagreement with his climbing the walls.
B. The writer didn't know the possible danger of the stone walls.
C. The writer's grandfather backed him up to follow his own heart.
D. The writer became a TV program host due to his grandfather's influence.
10. Which word can be used to describe the grandfather
A. adventurous. B. open-minded. C. determined. D. responsible.
11. What attitude do the author’s parents hold towards his climbing the stone walls
A. supportive. B. negative. C. objective. D. indifferent.
D
Parents often think that their kids should be good at studies and do well in sports. That’s usually the case because parents feel that could help their children go to top colleges. However, Melissa and Mark Wimmer think differently.
Their 14-year-old son, Mike, is a prodigy. He is a member of Mensa, which is the world’s top IQ club. He completed his high school, associate’s and bachelor’s degrees all in three years. That’s not all. He also ran two tech companies, founded a third one that works towards controlling the population of lionfish, an invasive species.
But the parents are proud that they were able to help Mike with his social skills along with his intellectual skills. Melissa told CNBC that people expected “Young Sheldon” before they met her son. Young Sheldon is a television show about a child talent who is an indoor man and lacks social skills. “But once they talk to Mike, they understand that he’s just a normal 14-year-old that happens to be able to do amazing things,” said Melissa.
Mark and Melissa got to know about their child’s intelligence when he entered preschool. A child psychologist told them that their son would need a different course to support his fast development. Many parents aren’t comfortable with putting their children with 18-year-olds, but Mike’s parents saw the value in letting their child go through it. “I wanted him to be social and be able to deal with all the different personalities in the classrooms with older children,” said Melissa.
The parents shared that they were able to do this by letting Mike find his own voice and put it to use. “We let him order food when he’s 3 or 4 from the waiter or waitress and introduce himself to people. Those kinds of things are done to encourage him to engage with everyone else and be more comfortable talking to others outside of our environment,” said Melissa.
Thanks to his parents, Mike has learned to get along with young and old alike.
12. What does the underlined word “prodigy” in paragraph 2 refer to
A. A gifted person. B. A popular student.
C A wildlife biologist. D. A promising businessman.
13. What can we infer about the child in the show Young Sheldon
A. He likes to make friends. B. He is a well-rounded student.
C. He is a famous child actor. D. He is poor at dealing with people.
14. How did Mark and Melissa discover their child’s high intelligence
A. Through the suggestion from a child psychologist.
B. Through the information provided by his teachers.
C. By taking part in a special educational program.
D. By watching their child’s behavior in preschool.
15. How did Mike’s parents improve his social skills
A. By letting him go to school alone.
B. By placing him in social situations.
C. By encouraging him to speak in class.
D. By teaching him some communication rules.

It was a chilly December evening, and the streets were filled with the hustle and bustle of holiday shoppers. Emily, a shy and thoughtful eight-year-old girl, was walking with her mother through the crowded mall. They were on their way to buy a Christmas gift for Emily's grandfather, who lived alone in a small town a few hours away. Emily's family wasn't very wealthy, but they always managed to find a way to make the holidays special. This year, Emily had saved up her money for months to buy her grandfather a present. As they walked through the mall, Emily's eyes were drawn to a shiny toy train set in the window of a toy store. She had always wanted one, but she knew that buying it for herself would be selfish. Suddenly, Emily stopped in front of a small jewelry shop. In the display case, she noticed a beautiful silver pocket watch, engraved with delicate flowers. "Mom, look at that watch! Grandpa would love it, "Emily said excitedly. Her mother smiled and nodded, knowing that the watch was a bit more expensive than they had planned, but seeing the sparkle in Emily's eyes, she decided to make it happen. After buying the watch, Emily and her mother continued their shopping, feeling happy and content.

【答案】Dear Jim,
Learning that you are going to travel to China this winter, I am writing to share with you some suggestions.
It is necessary for you to plan the travel route and activity schedule to ensure a smooth trip. Safety is first. Follow the trip guide’s guidelines, especially when engaging in high-risk activities. What’s more, It is advisable to learn to communicate effectively with your teammates. Last but not the least, you’d better minimize the impact on the natural environment.
I hope these suggestions will help you make the most of your trip experience and create unforgettable memories.
Best regards,
Li Hua
47【答案】 As they were about to leave the mall, Emily noticed a homeless man sitting by the entrance, shivering in the cold. He looked tired and lonely, and Emily’s heart went out to him. Feeling a strong urge to help, Emily turned to her mother and said, “Mom, I have some extra money left. Can I buy this man a hot meal ” Her mother was touched by Emily’s kindness and agreed. They went to a nearby café and bought a warm meal and a cup of hot coffee for the man. As Emily handed him the food, the man looked up with tears in his eyes and said, “Thank you, little girl. This means the world to me.” Emily smiled back, feeling a warmth in her heart that she had never experienced before.
That evening, as Emily and her mother drove home, Emily thought about the true meaning of Christmas. She realized that sometimes, the greatest gift we can give is not a material object, but a simple act of kindness that can touch someone's life deeply. The next day, Emily wrapped the pocket watch carefully and added a handwritten note, expressing her love and wishes for a happy holiday. When she visited her grandfather and gave him the gift, he was overjoyed. But Emily knew that the real gift was the joy she had felt in helping the homeless man, and that would be a memory she would cherish forever.
