Firstly, I realized that I didn"t 1 anybody at the school. Secondly, I knew that I wanted to work hard at
my lessons and 2 something useful. And thirdly, I wanted to have a good time with my new classmates,
without my parents around.
The first realization frightened me in the 3 . But that 4 quickly disappeared. It was the two goals 5
became my real difficulties. I knew that it was 6 to devote enough time to both classes and social efforts
at the same time. But I was determined to 7 my goals. I knew this would be a 8 , but I didn"t realize how
big the challenge was until classes began.
I got on well with the other girls who lived in my dorm. I often chatted with them 9 of finishing my
homework 10 it was due (到期的). I always finished it the next day between classes. I knew 11 wasn"t
good and the grades I 12 showed my lack of effort.
It was pretty 13 that I needed to find some sort of balance. So I made a schedule (时间表), 14 my time
up among going to classes, doing homework and relaxing. It seemed like a good idea, 15 I was only able to
16 to it for a few days. A schedule like that was too much pressure.
So I tried another 17 . Each week I made a list of things I had to get done during that week. Then I made
a list of things I could do 18 I had time.
This is the method I have used 19 then. I"m glad that I"ve learned to balance things and it has helped 20
me for what is come after graduation.

| School clubs are a great way for students with similar hobbies to meet. If you find that your school doesn"t offer any extracurricular (课程之外的) activities that interest you, then start your own club. It"s really not that hard and could have a terrific pay-off (回复). Step 1: Check with the principal"s office to make sure the club you want to start doesn"t already exist. Step 2: If it doesn"t, find out your school"s requirements for setting up a new club. Most schools welcome clubs so the process should not be too hard. Step 3: Get a sponsor (发起人) for your club. Usually, a teacher or other school official needs to be responsible for students" extracurricular activities. In certain examples the sponsor can either attract or sicken (使嫌恶) possible members, so be mindful of who you choose to sponsor your club. Step 4: Recruit club members. Get permission to post notices announcing your new club, and include a contact person for interested students. Step 5: Schedule a meeting to discuss what activities your club will pursue (致力于). Use this time to try to focus on a direction of the club so that no one is getting into something they did not plan for. Step 6: Set up a structure for your club. Select officers and decide who will be responsible for what. Step 7: Make plans to raise any necessary funds. Try to contact a local businessman who might be interested in your club. | |||

| The easiest way for the English to deal with their social discomfort is to avoid social interaction altogether, by choosing either leisure (闲暇) activities that can be performed in the privacy of one"s own house, or outdoor activities that follow their interest without direct contact with anyone other than one"s own family members, such as going for a walk, or to the cinema, or shopping. In recent survey, over half of all the leisure activities were of this private domestic type, and of the top ten pastimes, only two-having friends round for a meal or drink, and going to the pub-could be described as "sociable". The most domestic activities are the most popular: watching TV, listening to the radio, reading, DIY (Do It Yourself) and gardening. Even when the English are being sociable, the survey findings show that most of them would much rather entertain a few close friends or relatives in the safety of their own homes than venture out among strangers. In the latest national census survey (人口普查), over half of the entire adult male population had been DIYing in the four weeks before the census date. Nearly a third of the female population had also been busily improving their homes, and their work with their gardens was equally obvious: 52 percent of all English males and 45 percent of females had been out there, cutting branches and weeding grass. Even among people claiming to belong to a particular religion, only two percent attend services every week. The rest of the population can be found every Sunday at their local garden center or DIY superstore. And when they want a break from caring about their own homes and gardens, they go on trips to visit bigger and better houses and gardens, such as the stately homes and gardens opened to the public by the National Trust and the Royal Horticulture Society. Visiting grand country houses always ranks as one of the most popular national pastimes. | |||
| 1. The result of the survey shows that ______. | |||
[ ] | |||
| A. about half English people enjoy working in their gardens B. 8 out of 10 pastimes can be described as social activities C. 2 percent of the religious people enjoy visits to public houses D. visiting stately homes is the most popular national pastime | |||
| 2. According to the passage, the English enjoy all of the following EXCEPT ______. | |||
[ ] | |||
| A. the social activities, such as gathering with friends B. working at home and in their gardens C. dining out in a public place among strangers D. visits to stately homes and gardens | |||
| 3. The underlined word "domestic" probably means ______. | |||
[ ] | |||
| A. public B. household C. outdoor D. collective | |||
| 4. The passage mainly tells us about ______. | |||
[ ] | |||
| A. why the English don"t like social activities B. how the English spend their leisure time C. what the result of a recent census survey is D. where the English hold their private activities | |||

| Dear Editor, I"m a Senior 1 student in a middle school. This term, my favourite teacher, Miss Mao, no longer teaches us. I want to see her, but I"m afraid that she no longer likes me and I don"t want to trouble her. I really miss her. What should I do? Tian Yan Dear Tian Yan, It"s bad luck that you have lost your favourite teacher. But, if she is still in your school, nothing can stop you going to see her. When she isn"t busy, ask her if she minds having a quick chat. You can then tell her she was your favourite teacher. Everyone is happy to know they are liked! If she has left the school, it will be more difficult to meet her. It will be hard, but remember people always come and go in our lives. We can"t rely on (依靠) them being with us all the time. You may be sad to say goodbye to her, but we can remember and learn from her. Think of her best qualities. You could also try looking for similar qualities in your other teachers. Study hard and give your new teacher a chance. In time, you might start to see that he or she has different qualities to learn from. Finally, you can not completely rely on other people getting you through your studies, or even your life. Editor | |||
