It was really different from my school in China. Girls wore grey skirts and white shirts, boys wore grey trousers, and everyone wore the school tie. Some of Sam’s lessons were a bit strange for me. We were reading Shakespeare in the English lesson, and there were quite some old words like “thou” and “thee” to mean “you”. In History we studied 20th Century China. It was strange hearing a foreign side of history—and hearing English people trying to say all our Chinese names! Classes were also a lot more relaxing than in China. Teachers were called “sir” or “miss”, everyone shouted answers and raised their hands in classes. It was more like a debate than a class. A bell rang at the end of each lesson and everyone jumped up to go to the next class. At break we bought potato chips and cookies in the dining room. Lunch was later than in China at 1 o’clock. We had big plates of pie with carrots. For dessert there was hot sweet rice called rice pudding. It was good that I’d had an excellent lunch, because at Sam’s school Monday afternoons are taken up with sports. I played my first game of netball—a bit like basketball, but with some differences. Luckily, I’d had a quick look in the rule book before I tried to join in the game. 1．Paragraph 2 shows ________.

The high voice can help you become more confident. Play sports. Physical exercise makes you tired but really relaxed. A strong body helps you be full of confidence. Encourage yourself. Write down a list of things you did during the day to see how many things you have done well. Did you finish your homework? Did you tell a joke that made everybody laugh?

He was interested in football when he was 12 years old, and a high school football coach (教练) gave him a sports shirt. “To a 12-year-old kid, it just made me warm. I felt the need to know more about the sport,” Bob said. After a full understanding of it, Bob dreamed of becoming a football coach. And he made it. To do his job well, Bob has to use a special chair. He can control (控制) it with his head and neck, and he can hold a special tool to write something by using his mouth.

His mother worried about the difficulties he would face in life. But Hoge didn’t give up. Strangers would stare at (盯着看) him or even make fun of him. But he didn’t care.

But it is always difficult to have much time for every subject you learn. A good plan can help you to make sure of your success in study. Because it can help you make good use of time. Then, how to make a study plan? Well, you can begin by listing all the subjects you need to study and make sure what you need to do for each subject. Next, you should make a decision on how much time different subjects need. Now, it is a good idea to study at the same time every day. In this way, you actually have a plan you can remember well. While arranging time for each subject, make sure that you still have time for family, friends and rest. You should balance your personal life and your study. Once the plan is made, the next thing you need to do is to follow it. One of the biggest challenges is that you will be tempted to do something relaxing or fun. Luckily, you can fight this temptation by taking breaks. But be sure not to take too long a break because it can affect your plan. Also, you need to use your break wisely. For example, go for a short walk, eat a small snack, or listen to some music. Put up a copy of your study guide at home so you and your family can see it, and email a copy to your friends so they know when you have free time. 1．Why can a good plan make sure of your success in study?

It was really different from my school in China. Girls wore grey skirts and white shirts, boys wore grey trousers, and everyone wore the school tie. Some of Sam’s lessons were a bit strange for me. We were reading Shakespeare in the English lesson, and there were quite some old words like “thou” and “thee” to mean “you”. In History we studied 20th Century China. It was strange hearing a foreign side of history—and hearing English people trying to say all our Chinese names! Classes were also a lot more relaxing than in China. Teachers were called “sir” or “miss”, everyone shouted answers and raised their hands in classes. It was more like a debate than a class. A bell rang at the end of each lesson and everyone jumped up to go to the next class. At break we bought potato chips and cookies in the dining room. Lunch was later than in China at 1 o’clock. We had big plates of pie with carrots. For dessert there was hot sweet rice called rice pudding. It was good that I’d had an excellent lunch, because at Sam’s school Monday afternoons are taken up with sports. I played my first game of netball—a bit like basketball, but with some differences. Luckily, I’d had a quick look in the rule book before I tried to join in the game. 1．Paragraph 2 shows ________.

It was more like a debate than a class”可知，课堂氛围是学生自由发言、举手讨论，这更像是一场辩论，而不是一堂课，所以debate意为“辩论，讨论”。故选C。 3．细节理解题。根据“We had big plates of pie with carrots. For dessert there was hot sweet rice called rice pudding”可知，午餐包括派和热甜米饭。故选A。 4．细节理解题。根据“because at Sam’s school Monday afternoons are taken up with sports”及第6段“I played my first game of netball”可知，周一下午是体育活动。故选C。 5．最佳标题题。全文按时间顺序描述作者在Sam学校的一天经历，涵盖校服、课程、午餐、体育等内容，D项“Sam学校的一天”最全面概括。故选D。 Passage 2 My name is Jason.

Do you know what I mean by that? We all look a little different. Some of us are tall. Some of us are fat. The point is, all of us have our own look—our own face. Sometimes, we might feel bad about looking different. We might feel like we look ugly or weird (怪异的). But our differences are what make us special. I recently watched a speech by a man named Robert Hoge. Hoge was born with a strange-looking face. His mother worried about the difficulties he would face in life. But Hoge didn’t give up. Strangers would stare at (盯着看) him or even make fun of him. But he didn’t care. He decided to own his face and feel confident (自信的) in himself. He has gone on to live an amazing life.
