[核心素养链接·文化采风]
美国的中学每学年通常九月开课，次年五月结课，共分两个学期。每学年包括两个主要假期(暑假和圣诞节假期)和两个小假期(感恩节假期和复活节假期)。美国中学采用启发式教育。任何课程都要求学生自己去发掘、编排资料和撰写报告。课堂上有很多发问和讨论的机会，这与国内的教育模式有着很大的差异。
我上高中的第一天
我叫李康。我住在石家庄，一个离北京不远的城市。它是河北省的省会。今天是我上高中的第一天，我正在写下对它的感想。
我的新学校很好，而且我知道这是为什么。老师们非常热情、友好，而且教室令人惊叹。每间教室都有一台电脑，而且每台电脑都有一个和电影院屏幕差不多大的特殊屏幕。老师们在电脑上打字，打出的字会显示在他们身后的屏幕上。这些屏幕也能展示照片、文本以及来自网站的信息。它们棒极了！
英语课非常有趣。老师是一位姓沈的非常热情的女士。我们正在使用新课本，而且沈老师的教学方法完全不像我初中老师的教学方法。她认为阅读理解重要，但是我们在课堂上也说得很多。而且我们过得很快乐。我认为上沈老师的课我是不会感到厌倦的！
今天我们以小组的形式相互做了自我介绍。有些学生刚开始不好意思，但是大家都很友好，这真的很好。沈老师给了我们一些指示，然后我们自己活动。
沈老师想帮助我们提高我们的拼写与书写水平。我们是以一种有趣的方式进行的，有拼写游戏和其他活动。我非常喜欢她的态度，而且其他同学的行为表明他们也喜欢她。
我的班里有65名学生——比我以前上初中时班里的学生多。其中49人是女生。换句话说，女生人数是男生的三倍。据说女生通常比男生更勤奋，但是在这个班里，大家都很勤奋。我们今晚的家庭作业是描写我们居住的街道。我正盼着做此事呢！

你可以在你的下一封信中告诉我一些有关你的暑假以及中国学制的情况吗？
祝好！

【语篇解读】 本文是一篇极富哲理的寓言故事。有人看到一个人把冲到海滩的海星捡起扔回到大海而产生质疑：这么多的海星救得过来吗？殊不知这样至少对扔回到大海的海星来说是生的机会。
1．答案与解析：going 考查非谓语动词。空前面的动词是see，根据句意应该是“看见某人正在做某事”，故用see sb. doing sth.结构。
2．答案与解析：and 考查固定搭配。与前面的between构成固定搭配，between... and... 在……与……之间。
3．答案与解析：a 考查固定搭配。as a result of由于……。
4．答案与解析：stuck 句子主语为the man，与stick之间是被动关系，所以要用被动语态。
5．答案与解析：picking 考查非谓语动词。所填词后接up且宾语是starfish，与其后面的throwing并列，据此可知应该是捡起海星然后将它们扔进大海。
6．答案与解析：thousands 考查数词。当thousand前面没有具体数字修饰时其词尾应该加-s，thousands of意为“数以千计的”。
7．答案与解析：covered 考查非谓语动词。beach与cover之间是被动关系，所以要用被动形式。
8．答案与解析：possibly 考查副词。修饰动词应该用副词形式，possible的副词应该是possibly。
9．答案与解析：more one more表示动作在原有基础上重复，意为“再一，又一”。
10．答案与解析：difference 考查名词。make a difference是固定搭配，意为“有影响”。

My First Day at Senior High
I will remember the feeling of butterflies in my stomach when I took my first step into the school gate forever.

·__2__ Don't swim unless there is a lifeguard at work. If you're on a beach near the ocean this is especially important. In some places fast-flowing water can move swimmers away without warning. So if a sign says “no swimming”， pay attention to it.
·Be careful when diving (跳入) into the water headfirst. __3__. In natural water don't dive unless you know that the water is deep enough. Or you could hurt your head on the bottom causing injury or death.
·Around water adults (成年人) should watch children at all times to make sure they are safe. Those who don't know how to swim should wear life jackets. But by themselves they are not enough so an adult should always be present. If you have to rescue a child from drowning (淹死) a few seconds can make a big difference.
·Make sure you have a friend with you whenever you swim. __4__， that person can make sure you get help.
·__5__. The sun's heat and the physical activity may make you sweat (出汗) more than you realize.

There are three basic types of climbing: alpine (高山的) climbing ice climbing and rock climbing. The first two are done on mountains and use teams of people to get to the top. Rock climbing which I am going to write about is more about the physical part of climbing and rock climbers will find a rock face or cliff (峭壁) anywhere they can even if it is indoors! Let's start from how it is classified (分类)．
There are two kinds of rock climbing. One is free climbing that is done by a person using only his or her hands and feet to climb. The climber moves up by making use of holes and rocks. Free climbers use all of their muscles (肌肉) to climb the wall.
The other type of rock climbing is aid climbing in which the climber can use many different tools including ropes. For long climbs there is even a sling (悬带) that can be brought along so that the climber can sit and rest.
Before new climbers try climbing the side of a cliff they need to practice somewhere sate. One method is called bouldering. Climbers find a site where large rocks are offered close to the ground. They can practice their skills without worrying about falling. Another great place for practicing is at an indoor rock-climbing gym.
Rock climbing competitions are usually held at these indoor spaces as well. One kind of race is all about speed. Two walls that are exactly the same sit next to each other and the climbers simply race to the top.
The other type is more about decision-making. Each competitor is given the same amount of time to climb the same wall and whoever gets to the highest point wins. The climber must decide which path is best to get to the top. The competitor does not get to watch others climb. Otherwise he or she will have an unfair advantage.
【语篇解读】 本文是说明文。文章介绍了攀岩运动的种类。

2．What is the difference between the two kinds of rock climbing?
A．Whether climbers have rests.
B．Whether climbers use a sling.
C．Whether climbers rely only on their body.
D．Whether climbers receive help from others.
答案与解析：C 推理判断题。由第二段中的free climbing that is done by a person using only his or her hands and feet to climb和第三段中的aid climbing，in which the climber can use many different tools including ropes可知，自由攀登和器械攀登的区别在于攀登者是否仅仅依靠自己的身体攀登。
3．What is bouldering according to the text?
A．It is a kind of climbing exercise.
B．It is a method of reaching the top.
C．It is a form of aid climbing indoors.
D．It is a way to prevent climbers falling.
答案与解析：A 推理判断题。由第四段中的Before new climbers try climbing the side of a cliff they need to practice somewhere safe可知，抱石运动是一种攀登练习。
4．What is the purpose of the text?
A．To teach new climbers some basic skills.
B．To give an introduction to rock climbing.
C．To encourage people to go rock climbing.
D．To introduce some rock climbing competitions.
答案与解析：B 写作目的题。根据第一段中的Rock climbing which I am going to write about以及全面介绍攀岩运动的不同类型可知，本文旨在介绍攀岩这项运动。

Ⅲ.阅读理解
I come from a family that loves sports. My father coaches Little League baseball. My mother swims nearly every weekend. My brother is on his high-school basketball team and I am the best hitter on my middle-school volleyball team. All of us have benefited (受益) from sports. One of the most common ways for kids to take part in sports is to join a team. Joining a sports team should be a school requirement.
Playing sports is good for both the body and mind. Everyone knows that exercise helps people stay fit. For example swimming helps your heart work better and it also helps build muscle strength (肌肉力量). In addition school athletes often have a healthy diet. I eat a lot of fruit and vegetables and avoid fatty foods because I must stay in great condition.
Being on a team allows students to enjoy a healthier social life. They often make more friends and can be some of the most popular kids in school. Since joining the basketball team my brother has made friends with a lot of his teammates and has showed more interest in spending time with them.
Kids who take part in school teams sometimes earn college scholarships (奖学金). My brother's friend Justin played football in high school. His family did not have money to send him to college. However a college invited him to play on its team. The college is paying for him to go to school. Joining a team turned out to be one of the best decisions he had ever made. Now he studies at a great college and plays on its football team. Not every school athlete gets a college scholarship but joining a school team makes it possible.
Although some people may not like the idea of forcing students to join a school team its many benefits such as keeping kids healthy new friendships and possible scholarships cannot be denied (否认)．
