High School Programmes in Australia
Beautiful weather, friendly people and a widely varied landscape are just a few of the reasons you should choose to spend time in Australia as a high school student. Here are some programmes you can choose from.
High School Exchange
Individuals studying for a semester or full year in Australia will usually live with a host family. This is a great opportunity for students to see what daily family life is like in Australia. Students learning English will see their language skills improve from communicating with their new friends and host family, while those familiar with the language already can use this opportunity to learn more about the day-to-day life in Australia.

Youth Travel Tours
Travel tours for teens are a wonderful way for high school students to spend a short, concentrated amount of time abroad. Tours are usually for different themes such as cooking, adventure travel, or volunteerism. Students will have a fun, unique experience while incorporating educational components like environmental or cultural studies—and all without missing your normal coursework back home.
Summer Study Programme
For students who only have a few months of the summer break available, an advanced summer programme is perfect. Just keep in mind, the summer of the northern hemisphere (半球) is actually the winter of Australia. Oftentimes these summer programmes can be partnered with universities that will allow students to receive college credits.

[河北保定名校2024高一期中联考] High school, for most teenagers, is a space where new adventures and challenges begin. I clearly remember my first day of high school. As I entered the school gate, I was greeted by a crowd of students. The hallways were filled with talking and laughter. It was a lot to handle, and I felt like a tiny fish in a vast ocean. I held my schedule tightly, trying to find the right classroom. My heart raced as I was scared of getting lost.
My first class was English, and as I walked in, I spotted familiar faces from my previous school. I breathed a sigh of relief as I took my seat, surrounded by friendly smiles. My English teacher, Mrs Johnson, introduced herself and made everyone feel comfortable. She explained what we would be studying during the semester and encouraged us to share our thoughts and ideas. The next class was mathematics, which happened to be my weakest subject. I felt a tight feeling in my stomach as I entered the classroom, but my maths teacher, Mr Smith, turned out to be very patient. He promised us that we would learn and improve together. His words of support made me feel more relaxed, and I began to believe that I could overcome my maths struggles.

During lunchtime, I sat with a group of students who quickly became my friends. We shared stories, and talked about our expectations for high school. It was during this time that I realised that high school wasn’t just about academic (学术性的) subjects; it was also about building friendships and making lasting memories.
The rest of the day flew by with a variety of classes, faces, and experiences. My first day of high school was filled with moments of anxiety, joy, and the promise of new beginnings.

Tips on How to Study Smarter
Having good study skills is always helpful. However, there are some situations that can distract you from your lessons. Furthermore, you are likely to learn without a teacher or parent looking over your shoulder. 1. . Here are some tips to develop good study skills.
· Practise, practise, practise! Musicians practise their instruments. Athletes practise sports skills. The same should go for learning. 2. . In one study, students took practice tests over several weeks. On the final test, they scored better than those who studied in the normal way.
· Test yourself. Before big tests, you may often cover up the notes, and then try to recall them. Such practice can help nearly everyone. You can put questions down on one side of the paper and the answers on the other side. 3. . Teachers often dig deeper. They don’t just ask shallow questions.

· Learn from mistakes. A secret of science: Mistakes help understanding. If you don’t find out what the answer is, you’re wasting your time. Checking the answers can make your study time more efficient. Check to see if you are right. You can then focus on what you get wrong. 4. .
· 5. . You know you should practise some good study skills, yet many don’t actually do these things. Often you fail to plan ahead. So do make plans. And try to stick to a routine, too. For example, you can have a set time and place where you do schoolwork and study. And put your phone somewhere else while you work.

【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了如何更明智地学习的建议。
1.___
F
解析 上文的you are likely to learn without a teacher or parent looking over your shoulder提到,你可能会在没有老师或家长的监督下学习,F项(所以你必须管理好自己的时间,更多地靠自己去学习)承接上文。
2.___
G
解析 根据上文的Practise, practise, practise!可知,本段建议要多练习。G项(如果你想记住信息,最好的办法就是练习)和本段主题相符,且与上下文衔接自然,符合语境。
3.___
E
解析 根据上文的Test yourself. 和下文的Teachers often dig deeper. They don’t just ask shallow questions.可知,本段建议要测试自己,而后文提到老师会问得更深,故E项(试着用老师提问的方式来测试自己)符合本段主旨,且引出下文要这么做的原因。

4.___
D
解析 根据上文的Learn from mistakes.可知,本段建议要从错误中汲取教训。D项(错误实际上是学习的关键)符合本段主旨。
5.___
C
解析 根据下文的Often you fail to plan ahead. So do make plans. And try to stick to a routine, too.可知,本段主要介绍要制订计划并坚持去做。故C项(制订计划并坚持执行)是本段的主题句。

易错警示 本题易误选A项。根据本段内容可知,本段是关于“计划”的内容,A项和C项都提到了plan,所以学生容易看到关键词plan就选择A项(专注于你的计划)。但是根据本段中的Often you fail to plan ahead. So do make plans. And try to stick to a routine, too.可知,很多人没有提前制订计划,所以要提前计划并坚持下去,C项更符合本段所强调的内容。A项没有体现出“从没有计划到制订计划并坚持下去”的内容。
