High School Programmes in Australia
Beautiful weather, friendly people and a widely varied landscape are just a few of the reasons that you should choose to spend time in Australia as a high school student. Here are some programmes you can choose from.
周周练
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 family, while those familiar with the language already can use this opportunity to learn more about the day-to-day life in Australia.
周周练
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 with incorporating educational components like environmental or cultural studies—and all without missing your normal coursework back home.
周周练
Summer study programme
For students who only have the few months of summer break available, an advanced summer programme is perfect. Just keep in mind, the summer of the northern hemisphere is actually the winter of Australia. Oftentimes these summer programmes can be partnered with universities that will allow students to receive college credits.

(2026·株洲高一期中)The old saying “Use it or lose it” doesn't seem to be true when it comes to someone's ability to preserve and use a foreign language, a new study has shown.
周周练
The research team tasked almost 500 British people who had taken French GCSEs or A levels between the 1970s and 2020 with finishing a French vocabulary and grammar test. They included in it a survey of whether participants had used their French knowledge over the years since their exams, and excluded (排除) anyone who had studied a language later on in life.
They found that participants who took their exams 50 years ago and had not used French ever since performed as well as recent school-leavers and those who sometimes used French.
周周练
Lead researcher Monika Schmid said, “The knowledge of language is surprisingly stable over long periods of time, compared to other subjects such as maths, history or science. This is likely due to the way language is stored in the memory. Vocabulary is memorized in the same way as facts, dates and names, and this memory may become weaker over time, while grammar is learnt in a similar way to riding a bike, a kind of muscle memory, which is much stabler. Vocabulary knowledge, on the other hand, is in a highly connected network, which means that we need only be reminded of a word that sounds similar to a foreign language word for our brain to recall it.”
周周练
“Many people are not willing to review languages they once learnt as they fear they will be forced to review some of the more ‘boring’ contents of the courses, such as grammar, but our work suggests that this would not be necessary. We hope that it can encourage more people to pick foreign languages back up if they know it only takes a short amount of time in refresher courses to go back to their original levels,” Schmid added.
【解题导语】 本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了研究发现在保存和使用外语的能力方面,“非用即失”的说法似乎并不正确。
周周练
√
4.What did the researchers ask the participants to do?
A.Take a French exam.
B.Conduct a survey in French.
C.Learn French from recent school-leavers.
D.Talk about their French GCSE experience.
解析:细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The research team tasked ...with finishing a French vocabulary and grammar test.”可知,研究团队要求参与者完成法语词汇和语法测试。

(2026·山东开学考)A French company has promised to help big goods ships reduce their fuel consumption(燃料消耗), and cut their greenhouse gas(GHG) emissions(排放) by 20%. And they're doing this with the Seawing—a 1,000-square-metre kite that will fly 300 metres above the water's surface. So the shipping industry is rediscovering the joy and efficiency of sails (帆).
周周练
The large, ship-sized kite is now being developed, and the company plans to open a factory to produce the Seawing. Once the Seawing is produced, the company has promised that launching and operating a Seawing on a goods ship will be automated (自动化), making it easy for crews (全体船员) to use. The crew can simply press some buttons and a large kite will rise into the sky. That's not to say that the goods ships won't use their engines at all, but the kite will take some pressure off of those engines and will reduce the need for fuel. The wind will move the ship, just like it did for hundreds of years in the old days before industrialization.
周周练
Lowering emissions by 20% may not seem like a big deal, but moving large quantities of goods back and forth on the high seas creates 3% of the world's greenhouse gas emissions. That's more than the airline industry, which produced about 2% of the world's emissions in 2021, according to the International Energy Agency. Shipping is also a massive industry, and one worth focusing on for lowering emissions. About 90% of the world's traded goods are moved around through ships, according to the International Chamber of Shipping.
周周练
Some companies are expecting this new version of sails. A Japanese shipping company has placed orders for the Seawing kite, and the European Union has also invested more than $2 million in funding.
【解题导语】 本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一家法国公司正在研发一种叫“海翼”的大型风筝,以便帮助海上的大型货船减少燃料消耗,从而减少温室气体排放。

√
8.What is a French company trying to do?
A.Take part in kite-flying competitions.
B.Make sea exploration easy and joyful.
C.Produce big kites to be used for sailing.
D.Ship goods with low fuel consumption.
解析: 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“A French company...will fly 300 metres above the water's surface.”可知,一家法国公司正在尝试制作用于航行的大风筝,以便帮助货船减少燃料消耗。

10.Why is the airline industry mentioned in paragraph 3?
A.To stress a problem. B.To make a comparison.
C.To introduce a new topic. D.To explore a possibility.
解析: 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Lowering emissions by 20% may not seem like a big deal...according to the International Energy Agency.”可知,海运排放的温室气体量占比3%,而航空业排放的量占比2%,前者占比更高。由此可推知,此处提到航空业是为了做比较,从而突出减少海运排放的温室气体量的必要性。

Ⅳ.读后续写
阅读下面的材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
(2026·张家口高一期中)My hearing aid was a box that was tied to my shoulders and hanging from my neck. I carried it because when I was young I became deaf. After consulting (协商) with a lot of educational experts, doctors, and parents of other deaf children, my parents decided to send me to a school where all of my classmates and teachers would have normal hearing, instead of sending me to a private school for the deaf. So I was the only deaf child at Blue Creek Elementary School.
周周练
I experienced great anxiety throughout elementary school. Because in addition to the problems of “fitting in” with other students, I also struggled with most of my schoolwork. I seemed to spend every spare moment doing homework just so I could keep up. I could feel that my parents and teachers were deeply disappointed in me because of my academic struggles. The teachers didn't know what to do with me, nor did they show much interest in any of my poor performances.
周周练
My hearing disability required me to ask everyone from time to time, “What did he or she say?” I worried that everyone would soon grow tired of repeating everything back to me. I was sure that I was a bad person; my self-esteem (自尊心) was quite low. I saw myself as an ugly kid who wore a box around his neck and wasn't even smart enough to keep up with the other kids.
周周练
Mrs. Jordan, my 5th grade teacher, changed all of that with a simple three-word phrase. One morning, she asked the class a question. I read her lips (嘴唇) from my front-row seat and immediately raised my hand. I couldn't believe it—for once I knew the answer.
注意:续写词数应为150个左右。
周周练
But when she called on me, I was afraid.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
For the first time in my young life, I was a star in my class.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
周周练
One possible version:
But when she called on me, I was afraid. I took a deep breath, stood up slowly and answered Mrs. Jordan's question in a low voice. Then came the silence. I felt so nervous that I lowered my head and did not dare to look at the reaction of the teacher and other students. I would never forget what happened next. Mrs. Jordan pointed directly at me. With shining eyes and a wide smile, she cried, “That's right, Stephen!” I was overwhelmed by surprise and joy.
周周练
For the first time in my young life, I was a star in my class. I became the focus of my class, with everyone looking at me. My confidence soared like never before. I decided right then and there that I would make a name for myself in this world. No matter how many difficulties I might meet in life, I knew I could overcome them. A simple three-word phrase delivered with incredible enthusiasm had totally changed my young life—“That's right, Stephen!”
