Frank,Aged 21 I think almost every kid feels both nervous and excited before their first day.You will probably love it.I know I did.You should join some sports or activities that will make your high school experience more enjoyable.Good luck! Eddie,Aged 20 When I started high school I was really nervous too,especially since I had been homeschooled all through middle school and didn’t really know anyone.I suppose the best advice would be to just relax.The first couple of days can be a little bit hard,but things will become easier before you know it. David,Aged 19 I’m not going to lie.The first day is kind of frightening.But you’ll get used to it.Don’t be afraid of anyone;upperclassmen will pick on you more if you let them know you’re afraid.Just take it easy.Making some friends and staying with them will greatly help you get used to high school quickly.After the first week it’s really not bad at all.Don’t worry. 21.What can we infer from Sharon about high school? A.Teachers are quite strict. B.Students often stay up at night. C.Teachers provide little care for students. D.Students should make good use of their time. 22.How did Eddie feel on his first day of high school? A.Excited. B.Bored. C.Worried. D.Relaxed. 23.Who mentions the importance of friends? A.Frank. B.David. C.Sharon. D.Eddie. B Over the next 20 years,we are going to send more and better robots to Mars.Those robots will send back better pictures,maps,samples,and weather reports.There is a limit to what robots can tell us,though,so eventually we will have to send people to study the planet.Before people can visit Mars,we need to invent a spaceship that can take us there.Mars is very far away.Depending on where Mars and Earth are in their orbits (轨道) around the sun,it could take between six months to a year to get there. The moon is much closer,and we were there,25 years ago.Over the next 10 years,we are going to work on building a new spacecraft that can go to the moon.Using this craft,we will practise the skills we need to go to Mars. Once we get to the moon,we are going to build a station so that people can live and work on the moon for months at a time.This is important so that we have a place to start from when we want to visit Mars,but it is also important because it gives us practice with living away from Earth. By the time you are old enough to be an astronaut,we will have people spending months on the moon.By the time you are old enough to be a commander of a space mission we will be taking trips to Mars.By the time your kids are old enough to be astronauts,we may have people living on Mars.Wouldn’t it be cool to get a postcard from someone who was building a house on Mars?Wouldn’t it be cooler if it was you who sent the postcard? 24.We eventually have to send people to Mars because 　　　.  A.the pictures that robots have sent back are not very clear B.robots can’t tell us all we want to know C.robots are controlled by us humans D.the samples robots have sent back are not good enough 25.From the first paragraph we can see the distance between Earth and Mars 　　　.  A.is not always the same B.is nearly the same C.is unchangeable D.never changes very much 26.A space station on the moon is important because 　　　.  A.people can learn to adapt to living on other planets B.people can practise planting crops in it C.the new spacecraft can only land in it D.astronauts can practise skills they need to go to Mars 27.The author of the passage 　　　.  A.thinks that trips to the moon are an unrealistic dream B.encourages kids to be astronauts C.hopes to receive a postcard from Mars D.is sure people’s dream of living on Mars will come true C In American schools there is something called Homecoming Day. Many high schools and colleges with a football team have a homecoming game. This can be the most important event of the year except graduation day. Students plan Homecoming Day for many weeks in advance. Several days before Homecoming, students start to decorate the school. There are signs to wish luck to the team, and many other signs to welcome all the graduates. The members of school clubs build booths (摊位) and sell lemonade, apples and sandwiches. Some clubs help to welcome visitors. During the day alumni will gather at the school. They like to look for teachers that they remember. Often they see old friends and they talk together about those happy years in school. Many people still come to Homecoming twenty or thirty years after their graduation. Everyone soon comes to watch the football game. When the game is half over, a band comes onto the field and plays school songs. Another important moment is when the Homecoming Queen or King appears. All the students vote the most popular student Homecoming Queen or King. It is a great honor to be chosen. Homecoming is a happy day, but it is not perfect unless the football team wins the game. Even if the game loses, the students still enjoy Homecoming. Some stay at the school to dance and others go to a party. For everyone it is a day worth remembering. 28．What are students busy doing before Homecoming Day? A．Making a football team. B．Decorating the school. C．Taking their exams. D．Preparing for graduation. 29．What does the underlined word “alumni” in Para 3 refer to? A．Parents. B．Teachers. C．Managers. D．Graduates. 30．Which of the following is NOT done by graduates on Homecoming? A．To join in a football match. B．To see their old friends. C．To watch the football game. D．To visit teachers they remember. 31．How does Homecoming Queen or King come about? A．Voted by all the parents. B．Chosen from the best teachers. C．Elected by all the students. D．Given to the best football player. D What are American high schools like?Well,I’m happy to tell you what I know. When I started school here,it had already been a week since the school opened.At this school,freshmen usually go on a trip for about three days at the beginning of school.Unfortunately I missed that wonderful trip,which would have been the best time to get to know my classmates.I was really sad.I wished I’d known about it earlier. Despite the disappointment,however,I gradually adapted to my new life and school.There is a space in the basement of the teaching building where students chat and meet each other. As we do not always have the same classrooms and classmates,the school wants us to get to know each other there.Students usually come to school early,sit in that space and have fun.Around the space,there are many lockers for students to leave their books in,so that students do not have to carry a heavy schoolbag everywhere. It really surprises me that we have almost no textbooks.We only have textbooks for World History and Algebra 2 and they are big and heavy,like bricks.For other classes,we only need binders (活页夹) with paper in them.Without textbooks,students learn things freely and actively.For example,my humanities teacher just teaches us what is in her mind at the time.We never know what we will learn. Another difference between American schools and Chinese schools is that American schools care about students’ morality (道德) more than their academic studies.For example,if you do not finish your homework,you will just be asked to do it later,but if you cheat or lie,you will get a warning or even be kicked out. I think that most students here are good at schoolwork as well,but compared to Chinese students,they can make learning a more joyful experience.I think we should take the good points from our two different kinds of education to perfect our approach to studying. 32.What made the writer sad at the beginning? A.Being late for school. B.Not knowing anyone. C.Being looked down upon. D.Missing the chance of the trip. 33.Students go to the basement of the teaching building to 　　　. A.have a free talk B.attend class C.meet teachers D.share a classroom 34.How did the writer feel when he began his lessons? A.Happy. B.Surprised. C.Unsatisfied D.Lonely. 35.What might stop a student’s schooling in American schools? A.Not studying hard. B.Cheating. C.Not finishing homework. D.Failing in the exam. 第二节 (共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 It can be hard for one person to protect the environment by himself. If you teenagers want to do something, like stopping pollution or protecting wildlife, you can gather like­minded people in an environmental club. __36__ And with a good club, you and your friends can be up to the task. Choose a cause.

You can also use some other words, such as green, environmental, friendly, and of course, something that relates to your cause. Find a clubhouse.
