School Life in the UK
Going to a British high school for one year was a very enjoyable and exciting experience for me. I was very happy with the school 11 in Britain because school starts around 9 a.m. and ends about 3.30 p.m. This means I could get up an hour later than 12 , as schools in China begin before 8 a.m.
On the first day, all of the new students went to attend an assembly in the school hall. I sat next to a girl whose name was Dianne. We soon became best friends. During assembly, the headmaster told us about the rules of the school. We should mind our 13 based on the rules. He also told us that the best way to live up to our parents’ 14 was to work hard and 15 high grades. This sounded like my school in China.
I had many teachers in the past year. Mr. Heywood, my class teacher, was very helpful. He told us that the more 16 we are, the more easily we can succeed. My favorite teacher was Miss Burke -I loved the lessons that she gave in English Literature. She asked us to 17 before we decide. In our class, there were 28 students. This is about the average size for British schools. We had to move to different classrooms for different classes. We also had different students in some classes, so it was a struggle for me to remember all the faces and names.
I found that the 18 was not as beavy as what I used to get in my old school. However, it was a bit challenging for me at first. I felt lucky, as almost all of my teachers gave me much encouragement, although a few make 19 comments on my essays. I would never be 20 for studying in this school.

There have been big changes in the attitudes of most parents over the last few years. Physical punishment is banned in schools in most countries, and in many countries, there are moves to ban all physical punishment of children even at home. However, many parents still believe that they have the right to use some physical punishments to deal with certain misbehavior at certain ages.
It’s easy to find reasons to allow some physical punishments. One issue is that many parents find it very difficult to abandon physical punishment completely. Parents argue that this was the way they were brought up and that it didn’t do any harm to them. They believe that for the child’s sake they have the right to discipline the child in any way they consider fit, including using some physical punishments. The other one is that physical punishment can be quick and effective. There is not much point reasoning with a screaming child in the supermarket.
However, there are several reasons why we should stop using physical punishment. One point is that most parents are not trained to deal with misbehaving chil dren. They don’t have enough resources or choices to handle the situation. As a result, they immediately react by hitting the child even if there are other solutions to the problem. Another point is that unless people are challenged or forced to change their belief, they may keep following negative habits. An example is seat belt use —now most people wear seat belts without thinking, while years ago the idea of using seat belts was strange to most people. In the same way, banning physical punishment will force people to change their habits.
In conclusion, parents have to change some of their belief and ideas about how children should be raised. It is possible to avoid the use of physical force, and doing so will help us move closer to the dream of removing violence from our society.

A．they are disappointed with their children
B．they were brought up just in the same way
C．the y don’t want to hurt their children badly
D．they don’t know what to do with their children
38. The author gives the example of using seat belts in order to show ____________.
A．most people are used to wearing seat belts
B．it’s not difficult to change so me negative habits
C．seat belts are really very necessary and useful

English is a fun language, and even though it’s considered an accessible and relatively ea sy one to learn, with 750,000 words and spelling that can throw off even the most skilled learner, learning English fast can seem impossible. Take the following tips on how to learn English faster as your starting point and you’ll master this wonderful lan guage in no time !
TIP 1 _______
Classic literature, paperbacks, newspapers, websites, emails, your social media feed: if it’s in English, read it. Why? Well, this content will be full of juicy new vocabulary, as well as a fair amount you already know. This helps you improve quickly, as repeated exposure to learned vocabulary gives you new examples in context, therefore reinforcing those words in your mind. On the other hand, learning new words and expressions is essential to building your vocabulary, particularly in a language like English with so many words!
TIP 2 ACTIVELY TAKE NOTE OF NEW VOCABULARY
This tip is a classic one for good reason. It works ! When learning, we often enjoy a new word or phrase so much that forgetting it seems impossible. But trust us, not everything sticks the first time. To fight this, get into the habit of carrying around a notebook. Whenever you hear or read a new word or expression, write it down in context: that is, in a sentence and with its meaning noted. This saves you tim e as you won’t return to that word and ask yourself: “What did that word/expression mean again?”
TIP 3 TALK WITH REAL LIVE HUMANS
What is a language for if not to communicate? It’s true that speaking a language helps it stick in your head far better than o nly reading or writing it. Just think of how many times you’ve heard people say that they “understand, but can’t speak English.” A lot of would-be English speakers have turned talking into a huge obstacle that only serves to psyche them out. Don’t be like that. Seek out native speakers for an informal language exchange, enroll in a course, or take classes online.
TIP 4 SUBSCRIBE TO PODCASTS (IN ENGLISH)
Like humor? Politics? Blogging? Cooking? With topics covering every interest imaginable, there are English-speaking podcasts out there for you. Subscribe to a few and listen or watch while going to school or work. At first, you might find the native accents difficult, but stick with it and you’ll soon start to understand what you hear (as well as learning lots of new vocabulary from a native speaker!)
40. Which of the following is the best heading for TIP 1?
A．START WITH READING WHAT YOU REALLY NEED
B．USE CONTEXTUAL CLUES TO BUILD YOUR VOCABULARY
C．READ ALL THE PRINTED MATERIALS YOU CAN BUY
D．READ EVERYTHING YOU CAN GET YOUR HANDS ON
41. The phrase“ psyche them out” is closest in meaning to ____
A．make them discouraged B．cause them trouble
C．relieve their stress D．affect their fluency
42. Which strategy of learning new words and expressions is NOT mentioned?
A．By reading English materials. B．By noting them down in context.
C．By talking with native speakers. D．By listening to English podcasts.
A study of English learning problems was carried out among a total of 106 foreign students. It shows that most students considered understanding spoken English to be their biggest problem on arrival. This was followed by speaking, Writing increased as a problem as students discovered difficulties in writing papers that they were now expected to hand in. Reading remained as a significant（显著的）problem.
The information gained helped us in determining where special attention should be paid in our course. Although many students have chosen to join the course with a reasonable motivation（动机）, we considered it important to note what seemed to encourage interest. Nearly all the students have experienced some kind of grammar-based English teaching in their own country. To use the same method would be self-defeating because it might reduce motivation, especially if it has failed in the past. Therefore a different method may help because it is different.
Variety of activity was also seen as a way of maintaining（保持）or increasing motivation. Several years ago we had one timetable that operated throughout, but we soon found that both the students and the teachers lost interest by about halfway through the ten weeks. This led us to a major re-think, so finally we brought it into line with the expressed language needs of the students.
43. What is the text mainly about?
A．Foreign students have more problems.
B．There are many ways to improve English.
C．Teaching should meet students’ needs.
D．English learning problems should be studied again.
44. Writing became a bigger problem when foreign students .
A．became less interested in reading
B．became better at speaking
C．had to write their papers
D．had fewer problems with listening
45. We may infer from the last two paragraphs that .
A．grammar-based teaching seems to be encouraging
B．different teaching methods should be used
C．English courses are necessary for foreign students
D．teaching content should be changed halfway
46. The word “it” underlined in the last paragraph refers to“ ”.
A．re-think B．activity
C．motivation D．timetable

49 The first year in senior high offers many development opportunities. Joining various activities can enrich your school life, help you to make new friends, broaden your horizons (开阔眼界) and deal with stressful situations.
