阅读理解。     American schools are quite different from those in China. In America, at the beginning of the term,
students must select their courses and teachers first. While in China students usually have no chances to
select their courses and teachers.
     Selecting is very important for your grades in America. So at the first term, don"t select too many
courses, 4. or you"ll feel very nervous and it may influence your study. Then you have to ask for some
teaching plans. There is some information about subjects, time arranging, marks and textbooks. At the
same time, you must choose the teachers. Different teachers have different teaching methods. If the teacher
is called "killer" by the last grade, many students will give up choosing him. Because this kind of teacher
will leave too much homework, too many exams and give too low grades.
     There is another thing after you select the course and the teacher. How to buy textbooks makes each
student feel hard. The textbooks in America are very expensive. Each copy is about $30-50. In order to
save money, many students buy some used textbooks, and some students usually borrow textbooks from
the school library. You must get enough ready before class. In class, discussing is very important. 5. 老师
鼓励你提出问题或展示你自己的观点。
They don"t usually ask you to sit well. Instead they allow you to
sit or stand everywhere you like. They don"t give you much homework to do. You can learn some knowledge
and do exercises by yourself. So in American schools, you must do almost all things yourself. 1. At the beginning of the new term, American students have to ask

阅读理解。     We each have a memory. That"s why we can still remember things after a long time. Some people
have very good memories and they can easily learn many things by heart, but some people can only
remember things when they say or do them again and again. Many of the great men of the world have
got surprising memories.
      A good memory is a great help in learning languages. Everybody learns his mother language when
he is a small child. He hears the sounds, remembers them and then he learns to speak. Some children are
living with their parents in foreign countries. They can learn two languages as easily as one because they
hear, remember and speak two languages every day. In school it is not so easy to learn a foreign language
because the pupils have so little time for it, and they are busy with other subjects, too.

阅读理解。     There are only two reasons people cannot achieve their goals: The goals aren"t important to them; or
people don"t break them into small enough pieces. So all we need to do is to try our best...
     Have you ever watched a quitter in a boxing match-a man who just gives up and walks away? The
whole crowd boos. They throw drink bottles and bits of hot dog into the ring. They don"t throw things
because he lost. They throw things because he quit. In our hearts we all believe that we should do our
best.
     Eric Moussambani swam for Equatorial Guinea (赤道几内亚) at the 2000 Olympics. This was the
first time Eric had swum a 100-metre race. He swam with his head out of the water and he barely kicked
his legs. In the first lap he was really struggling (挣扎). In the second he was nearly drowning (沉没).
But Eric was fighting with everything he had.
     At the turn, the large audience began to shout and with every stroke (划水) the noise got louder and
louder. Twenty meters from the finish, Eric was hardly moving but the crowd was crazy. When he finally
hit the wall, the cheering and stamping all but lifted the roof off the stadium. His time of 1 minute 52
seconds was about a minute slower than all the other competitors. Who cared? Eric Moussambani had
done his best.
     When you make an honest effort, people support you. You feel happier when you do your best. Think
about what it feels like walking to school on those days when you have done all of your homework and
done it as well as you can. Don"t you feel just a bit more interested about school? Why? Because you are
always happier when you make a 100 percent effort, whether it"s for an essay or a basketball game.
     Your teachers will tell you"Work hard!" and your parents will probably tell you "Work hard." But you
don"t work hard to please your parents and teachers. The big reason you do it is for you. If you get good
marks, that"s a prize. If other people notice, wonderful! But the main reason is how you feel about yourself.
     Even when you do your best, it is not certain that you will succeed. You may do your best, and still
be criticized. You may do your best, and still have people laugh at you. But when you do your best, the
reward is that feeling that says, "I did everything I could." 1. The audience would get unhappy with a quitter because ______. A. the quitter loses the match
B. the match ends earlier than expected
C. the match is not wonderful
D. the quitter fails to show sportsmanship 2. People shouted when Eric was swimming because ______. A. he swam too slowly
B. they wanted to cheer him on
C. he was the last one in the competition
D. he had not mastered basic swimming skills 3. Which of the following is true according to the passage? A. You work hard only to make your parents and teachers happy.
B. The audience was very angry when Eric lost the 100 meter race.
C. If you have done your school work, you will surely get high marks.
D. When you make an effort in a basketball game, you"ll feel happier.

阅读理解。     Sure, it"s good to get along with your teacher because it makes the time you spend in the classroom
more pleasant.
     And yes, it"s good to get along with your teacher because, in general, it"s smart to learn how to relate to
the different kinds of people you"ll meet throughout your life.
     But really, there"s one super-important reason why you should get along with your teacher. When you do,
"learning bursts right open," says Evelyn Vuko, a longtime teacher who writes an education column called
"Teacher Says" for the Washington Post newspaper.
     In fact, kids who get along with their teachers not only learn more, but they"re more comfortable asking
questions and getting extra help. This makes it easier to understand new material and do your best on tests.
When you have this kind of relationship with a teacher, he or she can be someone to turn to with problems,
such as problems with learning or school matters, such as bullying (欺凌弱小者). 
     As a kid in a primary or middle school, you"re at a wonderful period in your life. You"re like a sponge
(海绵), able to soak up lots of new and exciting information. On top of that, you"re able to think about all
this information in new ways. Your teacher knows that, and in most cases, is very excited to be the person
who"s giving you all that material and helping you put it together. Remember, teachers are people, too, and
they feel great if you"re open to what they"re teaching you. That"s why they wanted to be teachers in the
first place---to teach!
     Some kids may be able to learn in any situation, whether they like the teacher or not. But most kids are
sensitive (敏感的) to the way they get along with the teacher, and if things aren"t going well, they won"t
learn as well and won"t enjoy being in class. 1. What does the writer mainly talk about in the passage? A. How much the students are expected to get along with teachers.
B. How to make the time in the classroom more pleasant.
C. How important to have a good relationship with teachers.
D. How to get a long well with teachers. 2. What does "turn to" in the fourth paragraph really mean? A. get help from
B. take hold of
C. look for
D. think about 3. According to the passage, which of the following can be inferred? A. If you have a good relationship with your teacher, you can get more help and learn more knowledge.
B. If you find it comfortable to ask questions, you can build a good relationship with teachers.
C. If you are getting on well with your teachers, you have more problems than others.
D. If you do your best on tests, you can build a good relationship with teachers. 4. Which is Not True on teachers and their work according to the passage? A. There are some students who can learn even if they don"t like the teacher.
B. Having a bad relationship with teachers does some harm to your studies.
C. Teachers are excited even if you wouldn"t like to accept their teaching.
D. Teachers sometimes have the same feelings as students do.
