In America, when the eighth graders leave the middle school, they are often worried about moving to the high school. It is a hard time for them, but it can be an exciting one as well. To make it easier, students need to get familiar with their school.

Even though they’ve done this already in the middle school, it’s still

important to find where their classrooms are. Most schools take students to the high school for a visit at the end of their eighth grade year. And, most schools also have a freshman (新生) speech for parents and students before the first year begins. Sometimes the main office will give away a map of the school. This can help students and parents to find different places in the school.

One way to know your high school more and make new friends is to join a club or play a sport. Schools often offer chances to join different clubs and sports. Fall activities begin in August before the first day of school. If you are not interested in sports, there are clubs for any interest, such as drama, dance, chess, photography, community service, etc. These clubs allow students from different grades. By joining an activity, students can find new friendships, not to mention improving their chances in future college applications (申请). The school office will have a list of activities offered at the school and information on how to join them.

What’s more, to have a great start to a high school year, students can write down some of their worries, and ask for help from teachers and school workers.

21. According to the text, most students feel ________ when entering the high school.

A. excited

B. nervous

C. lonely

D. disappointed

22. Which of the following is TRUE about the school clubs?

A. There are fewer students from higher grades in the school clubs.

B. The school clubs in high school only welcome sports fans.

C. Summer activities begin before school starts.

D. The school office can help new students join school clubs.

23. When do many schools take students to visit their new high school?

A. Before the eighth grade year starts.

B. Right after the high school year starts.

C. At the end of their eighth grade year

D. At the beginning of the new term in the high school.

24. What is the purpose of this text?

A. To tell the new students how to learn in high school

B. To introduce new schools

C. To give the teachers some advice

D. To give advice to new high school students

B

There is an English saying: "Laughter is best medicine." Until recently, few people took the saying seriously. Now, however, doctors have begun to look into laughter and the effects it has on the human body. They have found that laughter really can improve people's health.

Tests were carried out to study the effects of laughter on the body. People watched funny films while doctors checked their heart, blood pressure, breathing and muscles. It was found that laughter has similar effects to physical exercises. It increases blood pressure, the heart beating and breathing. It also works several groups of muscles in the face, the stomach, and even the feet. If laughter exercises the body, it must be beneficial.

Other tests have shown that laughter appears to be able to reduce the effect of pain on the body. In one experiment doctors produced pain in groups of students who listened to different radio programs. The group that tolerated(忍受) the pain for the longest time was the groups which listened to a funny program. The reason why laughter can reduce pain seems to be that it helps to produce a kind of chemicals in the brain which diminish both stress and pain.

As a result of these discoveries, some doctors in the United States now hold laughter clinics, in which they help to improve their patients' condition by encouraging them to laugh. They have found that even if their patients do not really feel like laughing, making them smile is enough to produce beneficial(有益的)effects similar to those who are caused by laughter.

25. The main idea of the passage is ____________.

A. laughter and physical exercises have similar effects.

B. smile can produce the same effects as laughter

C. pain can be reduced by laughter

D. laughter is best medicine

26. The underlined word "diminish" is similar to____________.

A. test

B. stop

C. reduce

D. increase

27. Doctors hold laughter clinics _____________.

A. to give better condition to their patients

B. in order to improve patients' health

C. to make patients smile all the time

D. to prove smile and laughter have the same effect

C

Winter begins in the north on December 22nd. People and animals have been doing what they always do to prepare for the colder months. Squirrels(松鼠), for example, have been busy gathering nuts from trees. Well, scientists have been busy gathering information about what the squirrels do with the food they collect.

They examined differences between red squirrels and gray squirrels in the American state of Indiana. The scientists wanted to show how these

differences could affect the growth of black walnut(黑胡桃)trees. The black walnuts is the nut of choice for both kinds of squirrels. The black walnut tree is also a central part of some hardwood forests.

Rob Swihart of Purdue University did the study with Jake Goheen, a former Purdue student now at the University of New Mexico. The two researches estimate(估计)that several times as many walnuts grow when gathered by gray squirrels as compared to red squirrels. Gray squirrels and red squirrels do not store nuts and seeds in the same way. Gray squirrels bury nuts one at a time in a number of places. But they seldom remember where they buried every nut. So some nuts remain in the ground. Conditions are right for them to develop and grow the following spring. Red squirrels, however, store large groups of nuts above ground. Professor Swihart calls "death traps for seeds".

Gray squirrels are native to Indiana. But Professor Swihart says their numbers began to decrease as more forests were cut for agriculture. Red squirrels began to spread through the state during the past century.

The researchers say red squirrels are native to forests that stay green all year, unlike walnut trees. They say the cleaning of forest land for agriculture has helped red squirrels invade Indiana. Jake Goheen calls them

a sign of an environmental problem more than a cause.

28. The study done by Rob Swihart and Jake Goheen is to ____ .

A. Find out how squirrels collect walnuts

B. Learn squirrels' influence on black walnut trees

C. Do something to get rid of squirrels

D. Save the forests in the American state of Indiana

29.The difference between gray squirrels and red squirrels lies in ____.

A.The way they gather the walnut

B. The time they have winter sleep

C. The place they have winter sleep

D. The place they store the walnuts

30.What could be inferred from this text?

A.Agricultural in Indiana has been well developed

B.Gray squirrels will be replaced by red squirrels in Indiana.

C.The spread of red squirrels will do harm to walnuts trees in Indiana

D.The government will take some measures to protect black walnut trees.

4 Study Habits You Should Be Practicing

With exams, essays, projects, and many deadlines for different things, effective(有效的) study habits are necessary. 31 If you are in need

of a bit of an improvement, keep reading for the top four study habits that you should be practicing.

1. Make and use flashcards.

32 By using flashcards with a question on one side and the answer on the other, you will force your brain to recall he necessary information. Even

if you struggle a bit with a card, you will still be actively revising the necessary material.

2. Revise, revise, revise!

Many students put off studying until just before the exam, with the more hardworking students giving themselves a week or two before a test. 33 It’s best to revise the information a little bit every day, so that you are not upset when a test comes around.

3. 34

One of the most effective—and the most fun—methods of studying is to watch related lectures and videos in order to get more material. Watch

documentaries or videos on YouTube and educational websites. You may be surprised at how much you can learn from videos, and just how much information is available online.

4. Re-write your notes.

Studies have shown that writing information out by hand increases your ability to remember the material. This makes the recall go hand-in-hand with muscle memory. 35

These are the four most effective study habits, and something all successful students do. Make sure you are on top of your game by following these study methods!

A. Watch related lectures and videos.

B. One method of revising is to make a mind-map.

C. Use these graded tests to create a new practice test.

D. Having these great study habits can make things easier.

E. However, it’s actually an ineffective method of preparing and studying.

F. Flashcards are designed to improve active memory recall of information.

G. You will be able to picture your written notes when you are taking the exam.

书面表达（满分 15 分）

Dear Li Hua,

I feel greatly honored to be trusted with your personal affairs.

I have to say that you are not alone when having trouble communicating with your parents. Almost everybody meet with it when they were in their youth. In other words, it’s a common problem shared by many, whose cause may lie in what we call “the generation gap”.

As for my advice, first, don’t hide yo ur feelings. You can make it a routine to share your thoughts with your parents. Second, you should convince

them you have tried your best. It is quite natural for parents to expect much from their children. However, I believe they will be satisfied with you as long as they know you have tried hard to live up to their expectations.

Anyway, there is no one who loves you more than your parents in the world. If you treat your parents with respect and love, I am sure you will get on well with each other.

Yours sincerely, Brad
