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.

Everyone was so friendly and polite. They made me feel at ease. It was like I’d been at the school for a hundred years!
The day started very early at 7:00 am. I had my breakfast down stairs with my mom. She could tell that I was very nervous. Mom kept asking me what was wrong. She told me I had nothing to worry about and that everyone was going to love me. If they didn’t love me, Mom said to send them her way for a good talking to. I couldn’t stop laughing.
My mom dropped me off at the school gates about five minutes before the bell. A little blonde (金发的) girl got dropped off at the same time and started waving (招手) at me. She ran over and told me her name was Abigail. She was very nice and we became close straight away. We spent all morning together and began to talk to another girl called Stacey. The three of us sat together in class all day and we even made our way home together! It went so quickly. Our teacher told us that tomorrow we would really start learning and developing new skills.

Nowadays, children spend less time in the fresh air. Many of them are addicted to a screen either on a computer or a TV— they seem to be living in a virtual world. They have lost touch with nature.
But now 400 organizations in the UK, from playgroups to the National Health Service, are encouraging children to have some “wild time”. They want kids to swap at least 30 minutes of watching TV or playing computer games for time playing outside. Activities such as building dens, climbing trees, rummaging for conkers and playing hide and seek are just some of the things kid can do. Even if they live in a city, they can go on adventures in the garden or the park.
Children often need a helping hand from mum and dad. They need to be shown what to do and where to go. Andy Simpson from National Health Service says, “We want parents to see what this magical wonder product does for their kids’ development, independence and creativity, by giving wild time a go.”
So despite the complicated world that young people grow up in now, it seems that going back to basics and experiencing “nature’s playground” is what modern children need. David Bond from Project Wild Thing says, “We need to make more space for wild time in children’s daily routine, freeing this generation of kids to have the sort of experiences that many of us took for granted.”
This might sound a bit old fashioned to you or maybe, like me, it’s made you think about sticking on your boots, getting outdoors and reliving your childhood. There’s no age limit on enjoying yourself!
12. Children are encouraged to do the following activities except________.
A. building dens B. climbing trees
C. playing hide and seek D. watching TV
13. What’s the main idea of Paragraph 4
A. Adults value outdoor activities. B. Modern children need wild time.
C. The present world is complicated. D. This generation of kids has no freedom.
14 The last paragraph suggests that________.
A. People at any age can enjoy wild time
B. It is out of date to go outdoors
C. It is too late for adults to enjoy nature
D. People like recalling the past
15. What is the best title of the text
A. More space for children B. Benefits of wild time
C. Wild time for children D. Adventures of children
