24、   Have you ever wondered what an American high school is really like? A typical American high school has several large buildings and enough space for about 1, 500 students. Every student is given a locker (锁柜). When students first arrive at school, they go straight to their lockers to get their textbooks and to hang up their outdoor clothes.

Each day, students take six or seven classes. They must take science, math, English and social studies. They can choose art, homemaking, clothes making and other classes. In some schools, students are required to take one or more of the following special classes: health education, physical education or foreign language studies. Students move to different classrooms for each subject. This is because each teacher has their own classroom. There is a five-minute break between classes to give the students the time to hurry to their next class.

The school day usually ends early in the afternoon. After school, more than half of the students take part in after-school activities. These activities include sports-especially football, basketball, baseball and soccer or clubs, such as yearbook, speech, school newspaper, photography or student government.

【1】What do American high school students do first when they arrive at school?

A.Get their textbooks. B.Put on their outdoor clothes.

C.Go to the classroom. D.Do sports.

【2】What subjects must students study?

A.Homemaking and clothes making. B.Science and math.

C.Physical education and health education. D.Art and English.

【3】What do most students do after school?

A.Take special classes. B.Do their homework.

C.Take part in after-school activities. D.Go home.

25、So, it’s exam time again. Have you done the necessary work to get good marks? Sleeping with the textbook under the pillow doesn’t work. The best way is to space your practice out, rather than cram（塞满）it all together. Just as a scientist called Tom Stafford advises, if you organize five hours of study into one hour a day, you’ll remember more than if you study for five hours on one day.

Don’t depend on memory alone. Get pens and paper, and start working! Students who can test themselves earlier will be better at retrieving（检索）the knowledge from the memory and keep it in the long run. John Dunlosky, a professor in the US, suggests that “you start by reading a textbook with your favourite pens and colours, and then write down the important ideas on small cards. While doing so, you actually try to test yourselves on them.”

Good revision should give you confidence, but if you are still worried, it’s not harmful to follow some special customs. In Japan, it seems to be a tradition for students to eat Katsudon before a test. This is a bowl of rice with egg and pork pieces. The name of the dish makes people think of the word “katsu”, meaning “winning”. For some students in South Korea, the key to success is not washing their hair before an exam, because they believe they could wash all the knowledge out of their heads. And in different parts of the world, there are always those who believe in their “lucky underwear”.

The bottom line is that you need to study, eat a good meal, sleep well on the eve of the test, and believe that your efforts will pay off.

Good luck in your exam!

A．study for at least 5 hours on one day

【3】What does the writer advise students to do before tests?

A．Prepare your exams well and be confident.

B．Choose your favourite pens and stay up late.

C．Follow some customs and just enjoy yourselves.

D．Sleep with the textbook under your pillow.

26、The teen years are an exciting time for girls, but these years they can also be filled with worries and struggles. Parents really care for them, even if they don’t always act like it. They need your love, guidance, and support each day to help them become healthy and happy.

With the busy lives we lead today, how can you do this?

*Spend time with your daughter. Set a good example to your daughter. Eat right, exercise, deal with stress(压力) in healthy ways, and don’t use drugs(毒品), alcohol(酒) or cigarettes.

*Try to find a good balance(平衡) between work and fun in your own life. This will show your daughter that she can have balance in her life.

*Teach her good values and a sense of responsibility(责任). Then trust her to make good choices.

*Set rules with them. Setting fair rules can help girls keep away from social problems which they can’t solve.

It’s normal for a girl to want to try new things. When your daughter is angry with you, she may make poor choices. Turn her mistakes into lessons, show her you still love her, and point out the good thing she does. Teach her not to be ashamed(惭愧) of having a problem with stress, grades, weight, drugs or alcohol. Even though you might feel upset and tired at times, everything you do will make a difference in your daughter’s life and she will thank you!

27、A rich man lived in a small town. He was very kind, but his son had started hanging out with a bad crowd. The father tried to warn his son about this, but his son wouldn’t listen.

One day, an old wise man came to the town. The father went to the wise man to ask for advice. After thinking for a while, the wise man replied, “Send your son to me tomorrow morning. I will talk to him.”

The next morning, the father sent his son over. The wise man asked the boy to pick a rose from his garden and said, “Smell it and feel its fragrance (芬芳).” The boy did so.

After an hour, the wise man asked the boy to smell the rose again. “How does it smell now?” the wise man asked the boy. The boy smelled the rose and said, “It smells just as good as before.” Then the wise man said, “Hmm! Now put the rose next to this sack of sugar.” The boy did so.

After an hour, the wise man asked the boy to smell the rose again. “Does it smell any different?” the wise man asked the boy. “No, it smells as fresh as before,” the boy replied.

Then the wise man said, “You should be like this rose-be ‘fragrant’ to everyone you meet. Don’t let bad smells affect (影响) how you act.”

28、请根据短文内容及首字母提示，填写所缺单词。

If you ever go to the northwestern part of the United States, go and find some redwood trees. You won’ t regret (后悔) it. Seeing a redwood tree is an experience that you will r【1】 for the rest of your life.

Red woods are the tallest and widest trees in the world. The largest ones have a diameter( 直径) of more than six metres. What about their h【2】 ? Most redwoods are at least 100 metres tall. Think about h【3】 big redwoods are. Most redwoods are thicker than a bus and taller than the Statue of Liberty.

A famous American writer named John Steinbeck w【4】 about redwoods. He said, “ No one has ever succeeded in painting or photographing a redwood tree.” He meant that it’ s i【5】 to understand the beauty of a redwood if you don’ t see a real one.

Because redwoods are so huge. they need a lot of water to survive. Redwoods have needles(针叶) instead of l【6】 . The needles take in water from the fog. Most trees take in water through their roots (根). Redwoods do that too, but water from their roots is not enough. They’ re so big that the water they take in through the roots can’ t r【7】 the top parts of the tree.

Redwoods have developed other special ways to survive. Their bark(树皮) can be more than 10 centimetres t【8】 . Their bark also has a taste that insects dislike. As a result, insects don’ t eat redwood bark. When a redwood tree is in a fire, something interesting happens to its bark. When the bark is b【9】 , it becomes hard and it turns into a shield(保护物). That shield protects the inside of the red wood.

Here’ s a【10】 amazing thing about redwoods: They live for a very long time. Some redwoods can live for up to 2,000 years.

29、Robert is a thirty-five-year-old American. He becomes a man in science. Once, he was interviewed by a newspaper reporter who asked him why he could be so much more creative than other people. He said that, in his opinion, it all came from an experience with his when he was about two years old.

That day, when he was trying to   a bottle of milk out of the fridge, but he dropped the milk bottle. The milk spilled all over the _   floor, which turned out to be a sea of milk. He was afraid.

When his mother came into the kitchen, instead of   him, she smiled. She said, “Robert, what a great and wonderful mess you have made! I have __   seen such a huge puddle of milk before. Well, since it has already been done, would you like to get down and play in the milk for a moment before we clean it up?” Robert did   his mother told him.

After a few minutes, his mother said, “You know, Robert, whenever you make a mess like this, you have to clean it up at last and put   to its right place. So, how would you like to do that? We could use a sponge, a towel or a mop(抹布). Which do you prefer?” He   the sponge and together they cleaned up he milk.

His mother then said, “You’d better learn   to carry a big milk bottle with two small hands, OK? Let’s go out in the back yard and fill the bottle with water and see if you can find a way to carry it without   it.”

The little boy    that if he held the bottle at the top near the lip(瓶口) with both hands, he could make it. What a wonderful lesson!

It was at that moment that Robert knew he didn’t need to be _   to make mistakes. Instead, he learned that mistakes were just   to learn something new, and that is what scientific experiments are all about.   sometimes the experiment “doesn’t work”, we usually can learn something meaningful from it. Wouldn’t it be great if all parents would do the same as Robert’s mother does?
