(共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分)阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(a、b、c和d)中，选出最佳选项。asharon, aged 22the most important thing to keep in mind when going into high school is to be yourself. besides, i dont know what your middle school was like, but high school teachers will not care about things such as how much homework you already have in one night. its best to just learn to deal with things and manage your time wisely so you can achieve everything you need to.frank, aged 21 i think almost every kid feels both nervous and excited before their first day. you will probably love it. i know i did. you should join in some sports or activities that will make your high school experience more enjoyable. good luck!eddie, aged 20when i started high school, i was really nervous too, especially since i had been homeschooled all through middle school and didnt really know anyone. i suppose the best advice would be to just relax. the first couple of days can be a little bit hard, but things will become easier before you know it.david, aged 19 im not going to lie. the first day is kind of frightening. but youll get used to it. dont be afraid of anyone; upperclassmen will pick on you more if you let them know youre afraid. just take it easy. making some friends and staying with them will greatly help you get used to high school quickly. after the first week its really not bad at all. dont worry.21. what can we infer from sharon about high school?a. teachers are quite strict. b. students often stay up at night.c. teachers provide little care for students. d. students should make good use of their time.22. how did eddie feel on his first day of high school?a. excited. b. bored.c. relaxed. d. worried.23.who mentions the importance of friends?a. frank. b. david.c. sharon. d. eddie.bchinese dinner tableof course, the main difference on the chinese dinner table is chopsticks instead of knife and fork, but thats only on the surface. besides, in proper restaurants, you can always ask for a pair of knife and fork, if you find the chopsticks not helpful enough. the real difference is that in the west, you have your own plate of food, while in china the dishes are placed on the table and everyone shares. if you are being treated to a formal dinner and particularly if the host thinks youre in the country for the first time, he will do the best to give you a taste of many different types of dishes.the meal usually begins with a set of at least four cold dishes, to be followed by the main courses of hot meat and vegetable dishes. soup then will be served (unless in guangdong style restaurants) to be followed by staple food(主食) ranging(包括) from rice, noodles to dumplings. if you wish to have your rice to go with other dishes, you should say so in good time, for most of the chinese choose to have the staple food at last or have none of them at all.perhaps one of the things that surprise a western visitor most is that some of the chinese hosts like to put food into the plates of their guests. in formal dinners, there are always public chopsticks and spoons for this purpose, but some hosts may use their own chopsticks. this is a sign of friendship and politeness. it is always polite to eat the food. if you do not eat it, just leave the food in the plate.people in china tend to over order food, for they will find it embarrassing(尴尬的) if all the food is consumed(吃完). when you have had enough, just say so. or you will always overeat!24.the real difference on the dinner table between china and the west is that_.a. youre treated to a formal dinner for the first timeb. on the chinese dinner table, chopsticks replace the knives and forksc. the host will do the best to give you a taste of many different types of dishesd. you have your own plate of

dishes b. eat the food in the platec. put food into the plates of their guestsd. show the friendship and politeness27.according to the passage, which of the following is wrong?a. a western visitor

the food in the plate. d. guangdong style restaurants wont serve soup to be followed by staple food.cthe english language started about 1,500 years ago in england. three groups of people came to the country. they were the angles, the saxons, and the jutes. these three groups brought their languages with them to england. after some time, the three languages became one new language -english. the name “english” comes from the angles. they lived in most of england. “england” means “angle land” or “country of the angles”.the language that we speak todaymodern englishis not the same as the english that people used many years ago, including old english(before 1150)and middle english(up till 1500).that language old englishsounds different, and it has some different rules of grammar. there

was important. some of us even had imaginary(想象中的)friends. the need for friends continued as we grew into our teens. friends played a big part in forming our personalities(性格).as adults, it is still important for us to have friends.true friends are people who like us though we made mistakes and who listen to us and tell us the truth. friends support our decisions and tell us when were foolish. they laugh with us and share our sadness. they are our partners and share interests with us. they stimulate us when we are feeling down. they are people we arent afraid of telling our secret wishes to or what is really on our minds.friends are our supporters. when you can depend on friends，you feel safe and warm. friends offer acceptance and emotional(情感的)support. at times，they also help with our everyday lives, cooking a meal, doing chores，or giving us a lift when we need one. friends also are there to offer advice, an ear to listen，or a shoulder to cry on.friends also help us reduce stress. not only do they listen to us when we feel stressed，but they also discuss what is stressing us. sharing interests and doing activities with friends help us forget about problems at work or at home.
