in china, i had english classes five times a week since the fifth grade. however, before i came to hotchkiss school, i didnt know the differences between textbook english and everyday english. when i first studied english, someone told me to answer “i am fine.” when people say “how are you?” but in the us, i found that people say, “i am good.” or “i am tired.” one day, someone greeted me with “whats up?” i thought for a moment and then smiled because i didnt know what to say.since then, i have found more and more differences between chinese and us cultures(文化).to my surprise, us girls spend a lot of time in the burning sun to get a tan. however, in china, girls try to get their skin(皮肤) paler or “whiter.”us students are more hard-working than we thought. in china, schoolwork is almost everything, so we study hard. but here, a “good” student gets good grades, does a lot social work and plays sports or music. the kids here are so smart. i feel sorry that i stopped playing the piano and never thought about sports when i was in china.44. to the writer, textbook english is _ everyday english. a. different fromb. the same asc. more difficult thand. as difficult as45. what does the word “tan” in the sixth paragraph mean in chinese?

perhaps your parents had the same problem when they were your age long ago. in childrens eyes, why are some parents not so friendly? one of the biggest things is when someone becomes a parent, he/she likes worrying things. they worry about everything about you, from the time you were born. they do a lot for you, though(尽管) something would make you angry, because they care about you and worry about you. they worry about your making friends, the food you eat, your work at school, how much sleep you get, etc. all these things are part of your life. they want you to grow up healthily and happily. so how can you make things easier on yourself? its easier than you think. just make sure your parents know what youre doing. get them to know your friends. call parents if you stay somewhere else. say sorry to them when you make mistakes. take responsibility(责任) for what you have done. talk about your ideas with them. they may talk about theirs with you. most of all, try to think about why your parents do this or do that. they are still practising being parents and need help you can give them. some day, when you become a parent, they may be able to help you how to get on with your children. 48. the writer thinks we should _ if we go back home later than usual. a. tell our friends b. tell the teacher c. say sorry to our parents d. make a call to our parents 49. the writer thinks _. a. parents should not worry about their children at all b. some parents make their children angry c. children should do everything as their parents say d. parents love their children and children should understand them 50. the best title(标题) for the passage is _. a. parents responsibility b. zhang huas problem c. how to get on with parents?d. what are parents worrying about?第ii卷（非选择题，共36小题，满分50分）五、词汇（本题共12小题；每小题1分，满分12分）a请根据句意或括号中的中文提示、英文释义、音标，写出句中所缺单词，使句子通顺。（每小题1分，共6分）51. i am a r_ of your magazine and i need your help.52. the kids _ (shout loudly) when they see favourite cartoon characters.53. take exercise _ (积极地), and youll get strong.54. the typhoon caused a big f_ and many villages were washed away.55. schools _ prvad us with a very good environment.56. he is not really a _（严肃的）person, sometimes he is humorous.b. 请根据句意从方框中选择合适的词，并用其适当形式填空，使句子通顺。（每小题1分，共6分）arrive, fog, honest, you, hero, important57. i think jim is a(n) _ person. dont believe him.58. dont keep your worries to _, sandy. its bad for your health. 59. we should drive more carefully on such a _ day. 60. his sudden _ was a big surprise to us all at the party. 61. at tiananmen square, you can see the monument to the peoples _. 62. more and more people realize the _ of protecting the wildlife.六、句型转换（本题共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 根据所给提示，完成句子。每空一词，含缩略词。 63. i join three clubs. john joins two clubs.
