I firmly believe a two-day weekend is NO DOUBT a necessity. First,it can reduce students'stress by enabling them to fully relax,pursue hobbies,and spend time with family and friends.And as such,it'll contribute to increased focus and motivation during the class.After all,as the saying goes,"All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy."And with more time and energy,students will be more involved in extracurricular activities and volunteer work, which help their overall development. In short,a two-day weekend isn't just beneficial but necessary for students'health,motivation,and over-all development. Another possible version: Should high school students have a two-day weekend? While a two-day weekend seems appealing,it may do more harm than good for students. Firstly,extended free time often leads to irresponsible leisure rather than proper rest-many teenagers lack the self-discipline to balance entertainment and recovery,resulting in fatigue by Monday.Secondly,excessive gaming or social media use during weekends creates mental distractions, making it harder to refocus on studies afterward.Most critically,high school is a pivotal stage requiring intensive academic commitment.With heavier curricula and competitive college admissions, students need every available day for learning,revision,or catching up.A shorter school week risks widening knowledge gaps and undermining their future prospects. In essence,unless students use weekends productively (which few do),reducing school days compromises both their rest and academic progress. 第二节（满分25分） Sara realized how mistaken she was.Here she was,complaining about the very food that her friend cherished.Aliya had never once grumbled about her meals.A wave of guilt washed over Sara as she realized how ungrateful she had been towards her mother's hard work.She understood now that food was not just nourishment;it was a reflection of love and care.She felt ashamed of her thoughtless words and actions.Determined to make a change,Sara stood up,resolved to apologize to her mother and appreciate the meal that awaited her.

A resident buying a new plug-in car could soon save a head-spinning $26,500. That’s no mistake. Colorado’s current $5,000 tax credit (免税额度) is already the most generous state-level policy available to all residents. With additional programs set to go live in the next few months, the state is now determined to test the full power of EV (Electric Vehicle) discounts — basis of the statewide plan to reduce carbon emissions. Gov. Jared Polis is betting the strategy can help reach a goal of putting nearly a million plug-in vehicles on the road by 2030. Here’s CPR’s guide to all of Colorado’s current and upcoming electric vehicle discounts: Colorado’s supercharged EV discounts Colorado residents can soon qualify for up to $26,500 in discounts for new electric vehicles.

B The rich fragrance of freshly roasted coffee filled the air inside a stylish stone cabin in the eastern Chinese village that houses Frank Sterzer’s café: Bamboo Coffee Roasters. After more than 20 years as an engineer and executive with leading automobile companies in Germany and China, Frank has found a new calling and fulfillment in the village of Maoli near Ningbo in Zhejiang province. Inspired by his lifelong love of coffee, Frank turns what had been a hobby into a thriving business. “Zhejiang’s countryside has excellent infrastructure(基础设施) and beautiful landscapes, and I find it the ideal place to start my business,” Frank says. Maoli is located less than a 30-minute drive from the Ningbo city center, striking a pleasing balance between urban convenience and rural tranquility. For Frank, the experience of sipping a cup of coffee while enjoying a slice of handmade cake and gazing at the countryside, captures the type of tranquil lifestyle he hopes to share with visitors. The café is named after the abundance of bamboo around Maoli, while its logo was inspired by a photograph Frank took of a nearby bamboo forest. He has also created a small coffee factory behind the shop front, where excellent beans from around the world are neatly stacked(叠放) next to gently humming roasting machines. All these have become key components of the café’s success. Since opening in June 2024, Bamboo Coffee Roasters has quickly become a popular destination, attracting visitors from near and far including international travelers taking advantage of China’s expanded visa-free policies. Before the Spring Festival, the café was welcoming guests from all over, including nearby cities like Hangzhou and Shanghai. “We came to Ningbo for local delicacies and business, purchasing local produce. Products such as honey oranges, bamboo shoots and tea have also found wider markets, thanks to the café’s reputation,” one tourist said. 24．What made Frank set up the café in Maoli? A．The village’s outstanding facilities and picturesque sceneries. B．China’s expanded visa-free policies for international travelers. C．Frank’s newly found enthusiasm for coffee and roasting beans. D．The combination of urban convenience with rural booming industry. 25．What is Paragraph 4 mainly about? A．Contributing factors to the business’ thriving. B．The hardships of running the business. C．Origins of Bamboo Coffee Roasters. D．The vast profit earned from the business. 26．Why is the tourist comment mentioned in the last paragraph? A．To prove guests from all over promoted Frank’s business. B．To tell us the success of Frank’s business enhanced local economy. C．To share with readers the intense interest of tourists in exploring Ningbo. D．To advertise for the local businesses to promote the sale of local produce. 27．Which of the following is the best title for the text? A．An overnight celebrity: from engineer to business founder B．Relaxing Coffee culture: a new trend of lifestyle in Zhejiang villages C．A Perfect integration: the fragrance of coffee and the peace of rural life D．Bamboo Coffee Roasters: a miracle of international investment in China C It’s one of the most common questions adults ask children: what do you want to be when you grow up? Although childhood is supposed to be fun, kids also discuss important topics regarding their futures. Now, a new study finds that children who set big goals regarding their future status and education often set themselves up for success as they age. The findings, published in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, are the first to reveal a connection between life goal development and future success in school or the workplace. Rodica Damian, an associate professor of psychology at the University of Houston, and other researchers discovered that as children grow up, their goals naturally begin to change. However, as some childhood goals fall away, other goals related to a family stay strong. These include being close to relatives, building more friendships or finding a romantic partner, and even becoming more involved in the community or helping others. During the study, researchers compared how their goals evolved as children moved from adolescence to adulthood and how a person's goals impacted their success in school and as an employee later on. Overall, a child’s goals focusing on their education and future status were the most consistent predictors of income in adulthood. Simply, when a child dreams big about doing well in school or achieving great success as an adult, these goals accurately paint a picture of how successful these children will be. So, the message is simple: dream big and dream of success, kids! Those goals can drive you to succeed when you grow up! “Our work proves a strong connection between a child’s life goals, educational achievement, and future work-related outcomes. This information is valuable for parents and educators who can use it to encourage children to set ambitious goals. Additionally, it helps develop strategies to support individuals in achieving their goals and reaching their full potential,” Damian concludes. 28. What does the study mainly focus on? A. Why children change their dreams over time. B. Whether childhood goals relate to future success. C. How childhood education determines future career. D. What impact early experiences have on characters. 29. Which of the following goals remains strong as children grow up? A. Connecting with others. B. Achieving academic success. C. Hunting for a high-salary job. D. Improving personal social status. 30. What message does the author convey in paragraph 3? A. Future career is determined by childhood achievements. B. Childhood ambition is potentially connected with success. C. Setting small goals is more beneficial than dreaming big. D. Adjusting goals can create new opportunities for success. 31. What is the purpose of the last paragraph? A. To summarize learning strategies. B. To offer suggestions for future studies. C. To stress the significance of the study. D. To point out the limitations of the study. D Buried in ash after Vesuvius’ eruption, hundreds of scrolls (卷轴) have kept their secrets hidden for centuries. But archaeologists have now been able to reveal some of the ancient text with the help of artificial intelligence. Discovered in the ruins of a villa, the Herculaneum scrolls are a collection of around1,000 scrolls, along with other relics. In earlier times, many people tried to unlock the secrets of scrolls but in vain, mainly because most of them were fragile and would shatter into pieces if unrolled. Until now, the only way to read what's inside the scrolls is to put together the thousands of pieces, which may take 500 years to reveal their content. Fortunately, a team led by professor Seales had already pioneered a way to “virtually unwrap” an ancient scroll using X-ray tomography (断层成像技术). But that was not enough to read the barely visible ink on the ancient documents. The chemistry of the ink from the ancient world is different than the chemistry from medieval times. It's largely invisible to the naked eye even when caught by the X-ray. In 2019, they did come up with a solution based on artificial intelligence to “see” the ink, but it needed much data. So they launched the Vesuvius Challenge to accelerate the work and released software and thousands of 3D X-ray images of pieces and two rolled-up scrolls, in the hope that global research groups would take up the challenge. In the end, a team of three students shared the grand prize. They could read 2,000 letters from the scroll after training machine-learning algorithms(算法) on the scans. After creating a 3D scan of the text using a CT scan, the scroll was then separated into sections. A machine learning model—an application of AI—then detected the inked regions, allowing them to decipher the text. Mastro, a professor at Naples’ University, called the technique “revolutionary.” “We worked literally day and night to study them, but I am more excited that using this method we can reveal what has been hidden in the scrolls for almost 2,000 years,” said Mastro. 32. What issue was resolved with X-ray tomography? A. The fragile nature of the scrolls. B. Putting together divided pieces. C. Showing the scrolls without opening it. D. The difficulty in understanding ancient languages. 33. How did AI function in processing the scrolls? A. By unwrapping the scrolls. B. By analyzing the chemistry. C. By separating them with relics. D. By detecting the barely visible ink. 34. What does the underlined word “decipher” mean in paragraph 5? A. Adapt. B. Summarize. C. Arrange. D. Interpret. 35. What is the passage mainly about? A. Scrolls promote technological revolution. B. AI advanced the way to read ancient scrolls. C. New technology discovered relics in Vesuvius. D. Hidden secrets are recorded by archaeologists. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Many high school seniors approach the college application essay with anxiety. They feel their lives are too ordinary to create a story that will impress admission officers. 36 It just needs to be a genuine reflection of their personal growth, drawn from everyday moments. I once worked with a boy who had no idea what to write about. Family? Favorite subject? He kept silent until I suggested, “Hobbies?” He shyly said, “I like boxing.” Then his essay unfolded, not about boxing itself, but about self-discipline and resilience (坚韧), qualities that any college would admire. So look into the things that shape you. 37 Some students try to catch attention by writing their essays in unconventional forms, such as a poem or a play. Most still follow the traditional storytelling model: a hook, a story, and a lesson learned. 38 For example, the rough edges and the pleasant smell of her father’s handmade furniture inspired one girl to become an engineer. The magic is in the details and emotional depth. As a writing tutor, I was hung up on language rules at first. Should I help my students stick to “standard English,” or let them write the way they naturally speak — even if that includes informal expressions? 39 It’s also about expressing ideas naturally and making connections with readers. It doesn’t hurt to tell a humorous childhood incident in a light, conversational tone. 40 Essay writing teaches students to express themselves with precision through rethinking ideas, refining language, and rewriting drafts. With multiple edits, they will uncover deeper insights and create a story only they can tell. A. After all, I preferred a formal writing style. B. A great essay eventually takes form in revision. C. I soon realized writing isn’t just about language. D. That’s why they try to make up appealing stories. E. Whatever the form, an essay stands out for its story. F. Once a topic clicks, the essay practically writes itself. G. But a powerful essay doesn’t require a dramatic story. 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 It was a chilly November morning when I stood at the starting line of the New York City Marathon. My hands 41 around the paper cup of coffee, seeking warmth. Just six months earlier, I had 42 this race after a decade-long battle with knee injuries. Doctors had warned me that running might cause 43 damage, but my determination outweighed the fear. The first 10 miles felt like flying. Crowds cheered 44 , their energy creating an invisible 45 that carried runners forward. By mile 18, however, my legs turned to lead（铅）. Each step made me recall the 46 I'd faced during physical therapy—the frustration of progress lost, the loneliness of early-morning exercises. Then came the Queensboro Bridge. As I climbed the steep slope, an elderly runner beside me stumbled. Without thinking, I 47 my pace to steady him. "Thanks, kid," he wheezed. "This old heart still has a few miles left." His words struck me: this wasn’t about 48 others; it was about finishing together. As I pushed through the last part of Central Park, all around me were 49 faces and shouts from tired voices. Crossing the finish line, I didn’t feel the expected 50 . Instead, there was quiet pride—not just in completing 26.2 miles, but in having 51 my limits. Sports, I realized, aren’t merely about physical 52 ; they teach us that true victory lies in the 53 to keep moving when every cell screams to stop. Today, my marathon medal hangs next to my physical therapy discharge papers（出院证明）.

I don’t want to eat them. I am not hungry anymore. I am going to order a pizza for myself,” Sara said as she stormed off in anger to her room. Her mother said nothing. Upstairs in her room, Sara called her best fiend Aliya, wanting to have a little chat so that she could express her frustration and find some comfort. “Sara, how are you?” It was Aliya’s mother on the phone. “I am fine, Aunty. Can I talk to Aliya?” Sara replied respectfully. “Aliya is having her lunch. Today, I’ve cooked her favorite dish,” Aliya’s mother replied excitedly. Sara became curious. “Aunty, what’s Aliya’s favorite dish?” Sara asked. “Daal chawal, she loves it!” Aliya’s mother answered and continued, “What has your mother cooked today?” “Daal chawal,” Sara replied in a low voice.

After more than 20 years as an engineer and executive with leading automobile companies in Germany and China,Frank has found a new calling and fulfillment in the village of Maoli near Ningbo in Zhejiang province.Inspired by his lifelong love of coffee,Frank turns what had been a hobby into a thriving business."Zhejiang's countryside has excellent infrastructure(基础设施)and beautiful landscapes,.and I find it the ideal place to start my business,"Frank says.Maoli is located less than a 30-minute drive from the Ningbo city center, striking a pleasing balance between urban convenience and rural tranquility. For Frank,the experience of sipping a cup of coffee while enjoying a slice of handmade cake and gazing at the countryside,captures the type of tranquil lifestyle he hopes to share with visitors. The cafe is named after the abundance of bamboo around Maoli,while its logo was inspired by a photograph Frank took of a nearby bamboo forest.He has also created a small coffee factory behind the shop front,where excellent beans from around the world are neatly stacked()next to gently humming roasting machines.All these have become key components of the cafe's success. Since opening in June 2024,Bamboo Coffee Roasters has quickly become a popular destination,attracting visitors from near and far including international travelers taking advantage of China's expanded visa-free policies. Before the Spring Festival,the cafe was welcoming guests from all over,including nearby cities like Hangzhou and Shanghai."We came to Ningbo for local delicacies and business,purchasing local produce.Products such as honey oranges,bamboo shoots and tea have also found wider markets,thanks to the cafe's reputation,"one tourist said. 24.What made Frank set up the cafe in Maoli?

The findings,published in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology,are the first to reveal a connection between life goal development and future success in school or the workplace.Rodica Damian,an associate professor of psychology at the University of Houston, and other researchers discovered that as children grow up,their goals naturally begin to change. However,as some childhood goals fall away,other goals related to a family stay strong.These include being close to relatives,building more friendships or finding a romantic partner,and even becoming more involved in the community or helping others. During the study,researchers compared how their goals evolved as children moved from adolescence to adulthood and how a person's goals impacted their success in school and as an employee later on.Overall,a child's goals focusing on their education and future status were the most consistent predictors of income in adulthood.Simply,when a child dreams big about doing well in school or achieving great success as an adult,these goals accurately paint a picture of how successful these children will be.So,the message is simple:dream big and dream of success,kids!Those goals can drive you to succeed when you grow up! "Our work proves a strong connection between a child's life goals,educational achievement,and future work-related outcomes.This information is valuable for parents and educators who can use it to encourage children to set ambitious goals.Additionally,it helps develop strategies to support individuals in achieving their goals and reaching their full potential,"Damian concludes. 28.What does the study mainly focus on? A.Why children change their dreams over time. B.Whether childhood goals relate to future success. C.How childhood education determines future career. D.What impact early experiences have on characters. 29.Which of the following goals remains strong as children grow up? A.Connecting with others. B.Achieving academic success. C.Hunting for a high-salary job. D.Improving personal social status. 30.What message does the author convey in paragraph 3? 第5页共10页 A.Future career is determined by childhood achievements. B.Childhood ambition is potentially connected with success. C.Setting small goals is more beneficial than dreaming big. D.Adjusting goals can create new opportunities for success. 31.What is the purpose of the last paragraph? A.To summarize leaming strategies. B.To offer suggestions for future studies. C.To stress the significance of the study. D.To point out the limitations of the study. D Buried in ash after Vesuvius'eruption,hundreds of scrolls (have kept their secrets hidden for centuries.But archaeologists have now been able to reveal some of the ancient text with the help of artificial intelligence. Discovered in the ruins of a villa,the Herculaneum scrolls are a collection of aroundl,000 scrolls,along with other relics.In earlier times,many people tried to unlock the secrets of scrolls but in vain,mainly because most of them were fragile and would shatter into pieces if unrolled. Until now,the only way to read what's inside the scrolls is to put together the thousands of pieces,which may take 500 years to reveal their content.Fortunately,a team led by professor Seales had already pioneered a way to "virtually unwrap"an ancient scroll using X-ray tomography(断层成像技术).But that was not enough to read the barely visible ink on the ancient documents.The chemistry of the ink from the ancient world is different than the chemistry from medieval times.It's largely invisible to the naked eye even when caught by the X-ray. In 2019,they did come up with a solution based on artificial intelligence to "see"the ink, but it needed much data.So they launched the Vesuvius Challenge to accelerate the work and released software and thousands of 3D X-ray images of pieces and two rolled-up scrolls,in the hope that global research groups would take up the challenge. In the end,a team of three students shared the grand prize.They could read 2,000 letters from the scroll after training machine-learning algorithms()on the scans.After creating a 3D scan of the text using a CT scan,the scroll was then separated into sections.A machine learning model-an application of AI-then detected the inked regions,allowing them to decipher the text. Mastro,a professor at Naples'University,called the technique "revolutionary.""We worked literally day and night to study them,but I am more excited that using this method we can reveal what has been hidden in the scrolls for almost 2,000 years,"said Mastro. 32.What issue was resolved with X-ray tomography? A.The fragile nature of the scrolls. B.Putting together divided pieces. C.Showing the scrolls without opening it. D.The difficulty in understanding ancient languages. 第6页共10页 33.How did AI function in processing the scrolls? A.By unwrapping the scrolls. B.By analyzing the chemistry. C.By separating them with relics. D.By detecting the barely visible ink. 34.What does the underlined word"decipher"mean in paragraph 5? A.Adapt. B.Summarize. C.Arrange. D.Interpret. 35.What is the passage mainly about? A.Scrolls promote technological revolution. B.AI advanced the way to read ancient scrolls. C.New technology discovered relics in Vesuvius. D.Hidden secrets are recorded by archaeologists. 第二节（共5小题，每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多 余选项。 Many high school seniors approach the college application essay with anxiety.They feel their lives are too ordinary to create a story that will impress admission officers.36 It just needs to be a genuine reflection of their personal growth,drawn from every day moments. I once worked with a boy who had no idea what to write about.Family?Favorite subject? He kept silent until I suggested,"Hobbies?"He shyly said,"I like boxing."Then his essay unfolded,not about boxing itself,but about self-discipline and resilience(),qualities that any college would admire.So look into the things that shape you.37 Some students try to catch attention by writing their essays in unconventional forms,such as a poem or a play.Most still follow the traditional storytelling model:a hook,a story,and a lesson learned.38 For example,the rough edges and the pleasant smell of her father's handmade furniture inspired one girl to become an engineer.The magic is in the details and emotional depth. As a writing tutor,I was hung up on language rules at first.Should I help my students stick to "standard English,"or let them write the way they naturally speak-even if that includes informal expressions?39 It's also about expressing ideas naturally and making connections with readers.It doesn't hurt to tell a humorous childhood incident in a light, conversational tone. _40 Essay writing teaches students to express themselves with precision through rethinking ideas,refining language,and rewriting drafts.With multiple edits,they will uncover deeper insights and create a story only they can tell.

Then came the Queensboro Bridge.As I climbed the steep slope,an elderly runner beside me stumbled.Without thinking,I 47 my pace to steady him."Thanks,kid,"he wheezed. "This old heart still has a few miles left."His words struck me:this wasn't about 48 others; it was about finishing together.

I firmly believe a two-day weekend is NO DOUBT a necessity. First, it can reduce students’ stress by enabling them to fully relax, pursue hobbies, and spend time with family and friends. And as such, it’ll contribute to increased focus and motivation during the class. After all, as the saying goes, “All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.” And with more time and energy, students will be more involved in extracurricular activities and volunteer work, which help their overall development. In short, a two-day weekend isn’t just beneficial but necessary for students’ health, motivation, and over-all development. Another possible version: Should high school students have a two-day weekend? While a two-day weekend seems appealing, it may do more harm than good for students.  Firstly, extended free time often leads to irresponsible leisure rather than proper rest—many teenagers lack the self-discipline to balance entertainment and recovery, resulting in fatigue by Monday. Secondly, excessive gaming or social media use during weekends creates mental distractions, making it harder to refocus on studies afterward. Most critically, high school is a pivotal stage requiring intensive academic commitment. With heavier curricula and competitive college admissions, students need every available day for learning, revision, or catching up. A shorter school week risks widening knowledge gaps and undermining their future prospects. In essence, unless students use weekends productively (which few do), reducing school days compromises both their rest and academic progress. 第二节（满分25分） Sara realized how mistaken she was. Here she was, complaining about the very food that her friend cherished. Aliya had never once grumbled about her meals. A wave of guilt washed over Sara as she realized how ungrateful she had been towards her mother’s hard work. She understood now that food was not just nourishment; it was a reflection of love and care. She felt ashamed of her thoughtless words and actions. Determined to make a change, Sara stood up, resolved to apologize to her mother and appreciate the meal that awaited her. But as she reached the kitchen door, she was surprised to see her mother preparing pizza for her. Tears welled up in Sara’s eyes as she witnessed her mother’s unconditional love. “Mum,” she said softly, “I’m so sorry for what I said earlier. I should have appreciated your effort instead of complaining.” Her mother smiled warmly, her eyes twinkling with tears of joy. “Family is about understanding and forgiveness. Come, let’s eat together.” They sat down at the table, enjoying a meal filled with love. 听力原文 Text 1 W: How was your camping trip? M: Great! Only, not very comfortable in my tent, because I forgot something from my list of things to take! W: I suppose you forgot your sleeping bag? M: Not that. I was looking for my pillow everywhere, but I left it at home! Text 2 W: Tim, you live on the other side of town, right? Do you like it there? M: Yes, I like the quietness there, although it’s a bit far from work — I need 30 minutes to drive to work. Text 3 W: Before we go inside to look at the dinosaurs, you need an information sheet. It has some questions on it. You don’t have to answer them, but the questions will help you find important information inside the dinosaur exhibit. M: Great! Where can I get one? Text 4 W: Excuse me? Can I take a photograph of your house? I’m doing a project at school about local buildings. Your house is old and beautiful. M: Sure! Go ahead. Text 5 W: Oh, that’s nice, David. It goes well in this room. M: Well, it’ll be useful when I invite lots of people to my new flat. We can all sit down together. It’s big enough for six people. I just need more chairs now. Text 6 M: I really need to get a new computer. W: Why? What’s the problem? M: Well, I’ve had this computer since 2015. It’s so slow to download anything. And it often stops working completely, and then I have to restart it. I really need a faster computer. W: Why don’t you go to A&T Computers? They really know how to set up systems properly. And I’ve always found their staff friendly and helpful. Text 7 M: Good morning, Tessa. I understand you want to have a word with me. W: Yes, Mr. White. I just wanted to let you know about the job I applied for. I got an email this morning saying that my application had been accepted, and they want me to start at the end of this month. So I’ll be leaving the company in three weeks. M: Well, I’m pleased about your success. And you know, we’re coming up to the busiest time of the year and I can’t possibly do without a key worker. So do you have anyone in mind who could fill your position? W: Yes, I do know a suitable person. Text 8 W: Aren’t you ready yet? We have to leave soon, you know. The rain out there is starting to really come down hard, and we are likely to be caught in traffic later. M: I know. Just give me a second. I have to take this paper up to Mr. Kim’s office first. Why don’t I meet you at the gate in five minutes? This way, I can go back to my office to get my coat as well before we leave. W: All right, Bob, but hurry up, please. This is our first meeting with Mr. Rowe, and I don’t want to give him the wrong impression by being late. M: Don’t worry. We still have plenty of time. Besides, we can take the subway, so you don’t have to worry about getting stuck in traffic. W: OK. Good idea. Text 9 M: Today in the show, we have with us Linda Larson, Course Director at Academy School. So, Linda, tell us a bit about the summer camps at your school. W: Well, our school runs 10 different camps over the summer, with activities ranging from dance to basketball. This year we’re adding sailing, while swimming and debating will be offered in more camps than last year. M: And what about the lessons? W: In our English classes, students develop their language skills while discussing topics that interest them. We also have project classes. The most popular project is creating a school magazine, but students can also choose to make a local guidebook for future students or to prepare a talk on their hometown. M: Apart from the lessons, what can students do at the camp? W: We’ve organised a very lively social programme. There are activities every night, such as reading nights or sports competitions. Every week there’s a music night, and there’s a party at the end of the course. We’ve also planned some trips. For example, on the trip to Exmoor students can explore Exmoor National Park. There’s also a trip to London, where students can visit museums, go sightseeing, and go shopping. Making friends and having fun is very much part of the experience.
