But todays Chinese students can hardly rest during the weekend.According to (根据) a survey, 25% of the Grade 8 students in Beijing have classes at the weekend. Over 38% of the middle school students have less than eight hours sleep each night because of the hard study. And this isnt only in Beijing. Nan Weitong is a Grade 7 student in Hubei. The 13-year-old girl has to get up at 6: 30 am on Saturday. Then she has a whole day of classes. On Sunday, she has extra(额外的) classes for math and English. But Nan Weitong doesnt complain(抱怨). She says her classmates all work very hard.However, some students are much luckier. They dont have to go to school on weekends.Zhang Qian, a Grade 9 student from Jinan, is one of them. And shes a top student. During the weekend, she usually gets up at 8: 00 am. Then she spends some time doing her homework. After that, she is free to go shopping or watch TV. Zhang Qian said her mother once wanted her to try extra classes. But my teacher said it was unnecessary. I didnt need to push myself too much. Learning well at school is enough, Zhang Qian said. I feel pretty lucky.（1）There are of the Grade 8 students in Beijing have classes at the weekend.A . 25%B . 38%C . 50%D . 75%（2）Over 38% of middle school students have less than eight hours sleep each night because of .A . watching TVB . playing computer gamesC . doing houseworkD . studying（3）During the weekend, Zhang Qian often after doing her homework.A . goes to extra classesB . goes shoppingC . watches TVD . both B and C（4）Zhang Qian feels lucky because .A . she gets some moneyB . she can join the art clubC . she doesnt need to have extra classesD . she doesnt need to go shopping（5）How many students are mentioned in this passage?A .

But when studying abroad, you need to worry about things like new tests, essays, recommendations, college choices and visa applications(签证申请). The first thing you should do after picking the country you want to study in is to make a list of universities, including a dream school (a school you may not get into, but is at the top of your list), a safety school (a school you can definitely get into), and several schools in between. Look at the websites of those universities and you will get a complete list of everything you need for your applications. The most important thing in any application will be your test scores, so pick a time as early as possible to take an exam preparing course. If you are in a lecture hall with a teacher telling jokes, you are probably just wasting your time. However, US students who attend top universities spend between 500-1,000 hours studying for the SAT, so probably you should do more. You are also going to need to think about how to tell a story about yourself. Chinese students have a reputation for being very hardworking, but also for sometimes lacking creativity or intellectual curiosity(求知欲). You need to show the university that you are excellent because of your own personality, not because your parents have forced you to be excellent. Are you interested in sports? Make sure to play on your schools team. Universities want to see that you have interests of your own and can show initiative(主动性). Finally, find a consultant(顾问) to help you through the application process. You will need this help, but please open your eyes wide and be as cautious as you can. Some agents will try their best to help students fulfill their dreams, but there are some irresponsible ones who care more about the fees paid by students. （1）Whats the purpose of the article? A . To introduce some top overseas universities.B . To inform readers about how to prepare for the SAT.C . To tell readers how to choose a good overseas school.D . To give advice on how to apply to a foreign university.（2）When preparing to go to a foreign school, you are advised to _. A . take exam preparing courses as many as possibleB . spend about 500 hours preparing for the SATC . make a list of the universities youre interested inD . write a good story to prove you are hardworking（3）What does the underlined word cautious in the last paragraph probably mean? A . earlyB . confidentC . carefulD . prepared（4）_ is NOT mentioned in the article? A . How much money you need to pay for a consultantB . How much time you need to spend studying for the SATC . Whether you need to prepare for your self-introductionD . Whether you need to make a list of universities in the country you pick（5）What can we infer from the article? A . It is better to have your parents help you with your applications.B . Foreign universities pay much attention to their students creativity.C . Sports fans have greater chances to go to foreign universities.D . Consulting agencies dont help your application much.4. （8分） You may know the English letters A, B and C. But do you know there are people called ABC? You may like eating bananas. But do you know there is such a thing a “banana person”? How strange! Are these people from “another earth”? No, they are just Chinese people like you and me.ABC means American-born Chinese. An ABC is a Chinese, but was born in the United States. Sometimes, people call an ABC a “banana person”. A banana is yellow outside and white inside. So, when a person is a banana, he or she is white inside-thinking like a Westerner and yellow outside-looking like a Chinese.Do you know why? Usually, ABCs know little about China or the Chinese language. Some of them dont speak Chinese. Also, they are not interested in Chinese politics.But if ABCs can not speak Chinese, can we still call them Chinese people? Yes, of course. They are Chinese. They are overseas Chinese. These people may be citizens (公民) of another country like the US, Canada or Singapore. But they have Chinese blood. Their parents, grandparents or even great-grandparents were from China. They all have black eyes and black hair. But they are not Chinese citizens. They are not people of the Peoples Republic of China. For example, we all know the famous scientist, C.N.Yang(杨振宁). He got the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1957. Chinese people love him. But he is an American citizen.（1）“ABC” in this passage means “”.A . three English lettersB . a kind of bananaC .

Ive loved my mothers desk since I was just tall enough to sit above the top of it. Standing by her chair, looking at the ink bottle, pens, and white paper, I decided that the act of writing must be the most wonderful thing in the world. I never saw mum angry, never saw her cry. I knew she loved me, she showed in action. But as a young girl, I wanted to have heart-to-heart talks between mother and daughter. They never happened. I was too emotional(情绪化的).
