Students are required to take certain subjects like English, social studies, math, science and physical education. In addition, they have elective subjects. Electives include subjects in technology, music, art and foreign languages.School ActivitiesEach school holds certain yearly activities, such as homecoming, prom night, holiday celebrations, etc. Homecoming is celebrated each fall, usually on a weekend.

At the prom, students dance, have snacks and drinks, and chat. Besides holding events for holidays such as Independence Day and Halloween, some high schools often have their own special events.SportsMost high schools have at least one sports team that enters local competitions, and all students are encouraged to take part in sports.

But since childhood, she had been dreaming of workingclosely with animals in Africa. “All through my childhood peoplesaid, ‘You can’t go to Africa. You’re a girl.’ ” Jane said.“ But my mother used to say, ‘If you really want to, there’snothing you can’t do.’ ”In 1957, 26­year­old Goodall went to Kenya to work as a secretary. She met the famous scientist Louis Leakey, who was so impressed by her hard work that he made her as his assistant. She went with him on many trips to the African forest and in 1960 Leakey sent Goodall to live among chimpanzees* in a protection zone, recording the animals’ behavior and interactions.For three months Goodall made little progress. But she said, “I never came close to giving up.” Her breakthrough came one day when she saw a male chimpanzee stick a piece of grass into an ant hill, then put the grass in his mouth. Afterward she came to the hill and did the same. Pulling the grass out, she discovered lots of ants on it. The discovery—that some animals use tools—was unknown to most scientists at the time.Goodall saw chimpanzees show human-like feelings, such as anger and love. But she also discovered they were able to attack* against each other.Goodall received her Ph.D. in the study of animal behavior at England’s Cambridge University. Now she travels around the globe raising money to protect wildlife. “I love being in the forest with the chimpanzees,” she said. “ I’d rather be there than travel around from city to city.”29.

The study has connected eating togetherwith lower rates* of bulimia and anorexia. The meaningsof bulimia and anorexia are eating too much, or eating atwrong times too often or eating very little. Besides, the study shows that teens who are used to eating round the table are less likely to take up smoking to loseweight.Researcher Barbar a said, “In many people’s opinion, teenagers don’t want to be around their parents very much, and they are too busy with their studies and spend more time with their friends.”The study shows happy families have teenagers who eat with their parents often. These teens have less bad diet or dangerous eating habits. “For most parents, it is difficult to get their families together around the table seven days a week. But if they can prepare three family meals a week，it will be good for their children’s health,” Professor Fiese spoke out after reviewing 17 studies on eating ways and nutrition of almost 200,000 children and teenagers. She has found that teens who eat at least five meals a week with their families are 35% less likely to be “disordered eaters”. E ven three family meals a week helped, with youngsters 12% less likely to be overweight than those who ate with their families less often. They were also 24% more likely to eat healthy foods and have healthy eating habits than those who didn’t share three m eals with their families.“Teens can also use family meals as a time to get their thoughts across,” Professor Fiese said, “Family meals give them a place where they can go regularly to check in with their parents and express themselves freely.”33. Which o f the following is NOT a reason why children don’t eat with their parents?A. They are too busy with their studies.B. They think their parents are too strict.C. They spend a lot of time with friends.D. They don’t want to be with their parents too often.34. What advantage of the family meals is mentioned in the last paragraph?A. Teens can form good eating habit.B. Teens can ask their parents for advice.C. Teens can come up with some good ideas.D. Teens can express their thoughts to their parents.35. What can we learn from the passage?A. Parents will have meals on time if they eat with their children.B. Teenagers who often have meals with their parents are cleverer.C. It is good for family members to watch TV while having meals.D. Teenagers have good eating habits because they usually have meals with their parents.36. What does the author want to tell us in the article?_______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________(D)The drug store was closing for the night. Young Alfred Higgins, the shop assistant was ready to go home. At that time, Mr Carr, the boss, stopped him and told him to take out what he had stolen. Mr.Carr said,“Maybe I should call your mother and let her know I'm going to have to put you in prison*.”Alfred thought his mother would come rushing in, eyes burning with anger. But, to his surprise, she arrived wearing a smile.“Hello，I'm Alfred's mother. Is he in trouble?”she said. Mr.Carr was surprised too. He had expected Alfred's mother to come in nervously, shaking with fear, asking with wet eyes for a mercy* for her son. But no, she was most calm, quiet and pleasant and was making Mr.Carr feel guilty*... Soon Mr. Carr was shaking his head in agreement with what she was saying.“Of course”he said,“I don't want to be cruel. You are right. Sometimes, a little good advice is the best thing for a boy at certain times in his life and it often takes the youths long time to get sense into their heads.”Back home without even looking at Alfred, she said,“You are a bad luck. It is one thing after another, always has been. Why do you stand there so stupidly? Go to bed.”In his bedroom, Alfred heard his mother in the kitchen. There was no shame in him, just pride in his mother's strength. He felt he must tell her how great she was. As he got to the kitchen, he saw his mother drinking a cup of tea. He was shocked by what he saw. His mother's face was a frightened broken one. It was not the same cool, bright face he saw earlier in the drug store. As she lifted the tea cup, her hand shook. Her lips moved nervously. The picture of his mother made him want to cry. He felt his youth coming to an end. He saw all the troubles he brought his mother in her shaking hand and the deep lines of worry in her grey face. It seemed to him that this was the first time he had ever really seen his mother.37.
