I have some good news and some bad news.First,the bad news:just having good grades may not be31to get you your high school diploma.That's because,as of last year,students are required to complete 90 days of 32 training and 60 hours of volunteering in order to graduate.Now,the good news:the new requirements are going to give you a 33 start in coping with the real world after your school days are over. The Ministry of Education made the changes because it wants students to break out of their cocoons.Much like Mark Twain's famous quote:"I have never let my schooling 34 wlthi iny education,"the ministry feels there are 35 and necessary lessons to be learned outside of the classroom-lessons such as the responsibilities required in a workplace and,by volunteering,the responsibilities required of a good citizen. The ministry's changes,however,may be somewhat problematic.Students are already overwhelmed with schoolwork,so where will they find the time?While many organizations need volunteers on weekends and you can easily 36 that part of the requirement,finding a place to do your practical training will be more difficult.It will probably have to be done during vacations. Many Western companies offer internships and summer jobs to high school students.They see it as part of their corporate responsibility and it's also a good way for them to 37 potential employees.Chinese companies,however,offer fewer internships and summer jobs,and their programs are not well-developed. 4 Students may just end up sitting around all day.Worse yet,there are some companies which do hire students but just to exploit their 38.There are stories of vocational school students who,as part of their practical training,are sent to factories where they assemble computer parts.They spend long hours on an assembly line and are paid low wages.Not much to learn there except how to be tired,bored and 39 0,your practical experience will be better and you will learn useful lessons.The most important of which is,as one businessman said,"In the workplace, you have to get an A-plus all the time-being 'just good enough'just isn't good enough." III.Reading Comprehension(45%) Section A(15%) Directions:For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A,B,C,D.fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fit the context.

However,some Ridgewood kids feel as upset as if they were on the city's busy streets. In addition to hours of homework,Ridgewood's children are occupied with afterschool activities-from swimming to piano to religious classes. Out of desperation one day,the town decided to schedule another activity.This one was called"Ridgewood Family Night-Ready,Set,Relaxl"Instead of schedules filled with sports,music,or overtime at the office,some of the town's 25,000 residents decided to take the night off and stay home.For a few months before Family Night,a committee of volunteers worked hard to spread the word.Younger students took"Save the Date for Me"leaflets home to their parents.The mayor issued a statement,and schools and clubs agreed to cancel homework and meetings so families could relax and be together. The tension between a hope for a more relaxed lifestyle and the knowledge that the benchmark(衡量尺度)for success has been raised in recent years weighs heavily on the minds of the townspeople.Some parents like to recall a different kind of childhood, one without so many scheduled afterschool activities.However,these same parents feel obliged to make sure their children are prepared to survive in today's high-pressure.. work environment.They are afraid that any gap in their children's physical or intellectual development might mean they won't be admitted to the"right"universities and won't succeed in a more and more competitive world Nevertheless,it seems that Family Night worked,at least to a point.Cars moved easily around Ridgewood's normally busy downtown streets,and stores and restaurants saw a drop in business.Some families ate supper together for the first time in months. 10 Initially,there was great hope of taking back their lives.But sadly,few families believe that one night will change their lives.Many are sure that they will fall back into the habit of over-scheduling their children to be overachieving adults. 63.The writer describes Ridgewood as a town where A.residents take little notice of education B.children are stressful and over expected C.parents are concerned about children's safety D.children lead a life of relaxed,ordinary rhythms 64.According to the passage,which of the following is NOT true about the Family Night? A Schools assigned no homework. B.Fewer people ate in the restaurants. C.The streets were less crowded. D.People enjoyed hanging out for fun. 65.According to the passage,the parents in Ridgewood A.have conflicting desires about what experiences to offer their children B.are happy with the lifestyle they have chosen for themselves and the children C.believe that it is their duty to make a change for the stressful life style D.are worried about their children's lack of big ambition 66.We may get the conclusion from the passage that A.the concept of Family Night will become a regular part of life in Ridgewood B.Ridgewood people believe the Family Night will change their way of living C.Family Night is not as popular as people have originally thought D,schools are worried about students being given too much free time Section C(8%) Directions:Read the following passage.Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box.Each sentence can be used only once.Note that there are two more sentences than you need.(每小题2分，共8分) 11 A.Encourage kids to cook with you. B.And we can't forget science education. C.We can give kids chances to think about materials in new ways.

Experimenting with materials to create something new can go a long way in helping them develop their creativity. ●Personal skills Understanding how others feel can be a challenge for kids.We know what's going on inside our own head,but what about others?Being able to read people helps kid from misreading a situation and jumping to false conclusions.69."Why do you think she's crying?""Can you tell how that man is feeling by looking at his face?""If someone were to do that to you,how would you feel?" ●Self-Expression 70 there are many ways to express thoughts and ideas-music,acting, drawing,building,photography.You may find that your child is attracted by one more than another. 12 第Ⅱ卷 I.Vocabulary Directions:Fill in the blanks with the proper forms of the given expressions to complete the sentences.Each can be used only once.Note that there are ONE more than you need.(每小题2分共10分) persist in,come up with.consist of,take turns,lead up to,raise awareness 1.A vacation which hiking and climbing is what he dreams of. 2.By the time the meeting started,a brilliant idea by a young man. 3.The friends holding the camera to get a perfect video of the sunset yesterday. 4.Despite the initial failures,the research team developing the AI model. 5.The city has taken steps to reduce plastic pollution by. of the cnvironmental impact of plastic waste. ll.Complete the following sentences using the phrases we have learned or given in the brackets.(共l2分，每小题3分) 1.正是在田野上，我学会了用弹弓打天上的飞鸟。2' I learned how to knock birds out of the sky with a slingshot.(强调句) 2.我参加了一个志愿者项目，下个月的这个时候我将在山区支教。(volunteer) 13 3.众所周知，学习英语不应该局限于词汇和语法。(limit)3' 4.小曼德拉本打算骑在驴背上，但驴低下头把他甩了下来。(intend)4 14
