There are over 240 museums in the capital, but the two most popular are in South Kensington and cost nothing to get into. In the Natural History Museum, the key word is Big. Next to it is the Science Museum. It has those great British inventions, the history of flight and exploration (探索) of space.

Students these days often have a lot of worries. Sometimes they have problems with their schoolwork, and sometimes with their friends. ▲ Some people think the worst thing is to do nothing. Laura Mills, a teenager from Washington, agrees. “Problems and worries are normal in life,” says Laura. “But I think talking to someone helps a lot. If we don’t talk to someone, we’ll certainly feel worse.”
Laura once lost her purse, and worried for days. She was afraid to tell her parents shout it. She even walked three miles to school each day because she didn’t have any money. She just kept thinking. “If I tell my parents, they’ll be angry!” But in the end, she talked to her parents and they were really understanding. Her dad said he sometimes made careless mistakes himself. They got her a new purse and asked her to be more careful. “I will a lways remember to share my problems in the future!” Laura says.
Robert Hunt advises students about common problems. He feels the same way as Laura. “It is best not to avoid our problems. We should always try to solve them.” He thinks that you can first fin d someone to talk to. This person doesn’t need to be an expert like himself. Students often forget that their parents have more experience than them, and are always there to help them.
In English, we say that sharing a problem is like cutting it in half. S o you’re halfway to solving a problem if you talk to someone about it!

Hip hop, or rap music as it’s also called, started on the streets and in the clubs of New York City in the 1970s. But today many countries have their own kind of hip hop music. This kind of music comes from reggae, disco and funk music. Rapping means speaking to the rhythm of the music, and it is an important part of this music. People rap to express how they feel about their lives and problems.
Rapping in class!
Would you like to rap in class? Well actually, hip hop music is played in more than 10,000 schools in the USA. Why? There is a new school program called “Flocabulary” in which teachers use texts and hip hop CDs to help teach different school subjects. The words of the songs are just what students are studying. This makes learning easy and fun. Students and teachers are excited about the positive results it has had on exam marks. One teacher said, “I’ve used hip hop songs in class, and I have never seen my student s so crazy about history! You can’t imagine how well they remember what I teach! We even try to write our own songs.”
Whose idea was Flocabulary?
Blake Harrison, a high school student, was the first person to come up with the idea of Flocabulary. The word “Flocabulary” comes from the words “flow” and “vocabulary”. “Flow” is a rap word for “style”, or the way a rapper says the words of a song. “V ocabulary” means the words you have to learn in a language. How did he get the idea? Well, he realized he could remember the words of a hip hop song very easily. So, why not make lessons into songs? Today together with Alex Rappaport, a song writer, Blake produces hip hop songs for math, science, and literature(文学). They are now used in schools with great success.

A. in the 1970s

A. math

Last month, when I was taking part in a US college interview, I was asked, “What makes you special?” In fact I had answered questions li ke this many times since I decided to go to college in the US. At first, I thought that my high SAT score would allow me to go to the top universities. But I later found that the US colleges paid special attention to different achievements. For example, a person who is very good at math can go to a famous college but so can a good football player.
This experience made me think again that I must try to find where my own interests might lead me. To be honest, it was not easy. However, I never felt sorry to choose this way because it helped me understand myself. If I took the College Entrance Examination, as we call it gaokao in China, it could never possibly do.
When I entered high school, I took gaokao seriously because it seemed to me a great way to show how good I was at my lesson. However, as I grew older, I realized that gaokao did make me work hard at my lessons, but the pressure also pushed many other activities out of my life, like guitar—playing. Although I had no time for it, I will still get to it in the future.
No doubt, gaokao provides a way of choosing those who are successful in their studies. But it is really important for all of us to rethink what “talent”(能力) really is today. This is because we now live in a world in which all of our other human qualities(品质) are needed for success, not just the high grades.
Ken Robinson once said, “The society depends on different kinds of talents.” However, gaokao pays too much attention to a person’s grades but little to his other qualities. And it is these qualities that make life colorful and fun.
As high school students, we cannot change the present situation of education, but we can always free to think outside the box. Although good school grades is still useful, I hope one day we will see our education also welcomes the amazing possibilities in different people.
12. The US colleges pay special attention to ________.
A. students’ family background
B. the different achievements
C. students’ ideas about way of life
D. the school a student is from
13. When at high school, the writer ________.
A. had a lot of activities
B. didn’t work hard at her lessons
C. did well in gaokao
D. had no time to play the guitar
14. From the passage, we know that the writer may ________.
A. go to college in America
B. give up the US college interview
C. become a good football player in the US
D. change the present situation of education in China
15. Which of the following might be the best title for the passage?
A. My school life abroad
B. Different exams in the US
C. My view on gaokao
D. The importance of school grades
