A
There goes the alarm again. I guess I should get up, but I am worried this day. I always hate going back to school after a holiday break. I am not sure why. I am anxious to see my friends, I don’t have any unfinished homework, but I still get that funny feeling in my mind. Has something changed? Do all my friends still feel the same way? What clothes should I wear today? Everyone will wear something new, I am sure of that.
My biggest conflict is in my head. Part of me says, “Be your own person!” Another part of me just wants to fit into the crowd. My mom says that high school is like this, but college will be the opposite. She says I'll meet many people with different interests, and find groups that I want to be with. I am looking forward to that freedom, but I have one more year of high school and this is my reality right now.
As much as my friends and I like to think we are above all the pressures of our same agers and social “rules” of our school, we all know we are very much controlled by it. We wear our hair the same way, wear the same school uniform, and even have to use the same perfume（香水）. We basically clone ourselves because we don’t want to be different. Yet, deep down we would like to shout, “Look at me! This is who I am!"
Sigh, there goes the alarm again. What should I wear today? I think I will call Clara and see what she is wearing.
56. How does the author describe how her body is reacting to her uneasiness about returning to school?
A. She has a funny feeling in her mind. B. She has a horrible headache.
C. Her eyes are burning. D. She has an awful earache.
57. Which of the following did the author state would be for sure when she returns to school?
A. She will meet new and interesting people in high school.
B. Everyone feels strange now.
C. Everyone will be wearing something new.
D. She wants to make sure she is different from everyone else.
58. Which of the following is NOT true?
A. Most high school students want to be exactly like their same agers.
B. Most high school students are controlled by pressures from their same agers.
C. The author has one more year of high school.
D. High school students have more freedom than college students do.
59. Even though the author knows what Clara is wearing, she still wants to_____ .
A. be her own way B. take an early admission to college
C. make exceptional grades D. follow her friend
B
WHAT do you do when you have a 1-penny coin in your pocket? Perhaps you buy a piece of candy. Maybe you give it to a homeless man in the street. But have you ever used a penny to fly to a foreign country?
Last summer, I flew fromLondon,UK, toMadrid,Spain, and then on to Faro,Portugal, and all the way back home. The combined cost of these four flights was just 4 pence. It even included all the taxes.
Although it was a special offer, it is common to be able to fly between Europe’s major cities for around ￡20 ajourney. These days, many young people, especially students, choose for this cheap travel as a way of visiting countries aroundEurope.
But don’t expect to be treated like royalty. Seats are normally crowded, in an attempt to pack as many people as possible onto the flight. Food and drink, which tends to be provided for free on an airplane, is costly. And if you want to watch a movie to pass the time, you’d better have brought a portable DVD player with you.
The problem with these flights is that added extras cost a lot of money. If you want to buy food on the plane, check-in a big suitcase and get a priority-boarding (优先) pass that allows you to skip the line, you can end up paying close to the price of a normal flight.
But there are ways around this. When I flew to Spain and Portugal, instead of paying ￡20 to take a big suitcase, I carried a small bag of hand luggage and then wore all the clothes I would need for my holiday. Fortunately, it wasn’t too warm, but I still looked fairly ridiculous in seven T-shirts and ten pairs of socks.
To keep costs low, flights are usually based at smaller, more remote airports. When I go on one of these flights, I will often end up spending more money on the 30-minute train to the airport than I will on the three-hour flight acrossEurope.
And often the cheapest flights are either very early in the morning or very late at night. My 1-pence flights departed at around5 am. If you want to fly at a more reasonable time, be prepared to pay a little more.
These low-cost airlines have received a lot of criticism from people who campaign to save the environment. One of my friends refuses to use them, and instead will always take trains when visiting other countries inEurope. Although they are often more expensive, and take longer, she says at least they aren’t as damaging to the planet.
Still, it can be hard to resist a flight to an interesting country when prices are so cheap.
60．The author looked ridiculous in seven T-shirts and ten pairs of socks because he___________.
A．doesn’t want to spend extra money
B．should obey a special order of the airlines
C．took part in the action to save the environment
D．wanted to attract the eyes of the other tourists
61．From the passage , we know that _____________.
A．carrying more luggage can help you save more money
B．you can enjoy free food and drinks on such cheap flights
C．although the air ticket is cheap, the journey can still be expensive
D．traveling by train inEuropeis always cheap and convenient at present
62．Some people would take trains rather than the cheap flights because they want to ________.
A．keep themselves safe and sound B．enjoy a longer travel by themselves
C．spend less money and enjoy more D．try their best to protect the environment
63．The passage is mainly written to ___________.
A．share one’s wonderful travel experiences
B．talk about the cheap flights inEurope
C．ask more students to travel inEurope
D．complain about some European airline companies
C
Baseball isAmerica's national sport. So it is not unusual that many popular expressions come from baseball. But first, let me explain a little about the game.
Each baseball team has nine players. The pitcher of one team throws the ball to a batter from the other team. The batter attempts to hit the ball. If he misses, it is called a strike. If a batter gets three strikes, he loses his turn at bat and is called out. The batter also is out if he hits the ball in the air and an opposing player catches it. But if the batter hits the ball and it is not caught, the batter tries to run to one or more of the four bases on the field. The batter can run to all four bases if he hits the ball over the fence or out of the ballpark. Such a hit is called a homerun.
Now, here are some common expressions from baseball. Someone who is "on the ball" is intelligent and able to do a good job. But a person who "threw a curve ball" did something unexpected. Someone who "steps up to the plate" is ready to do his or her job. A "pinch hitter" takes the place of someone else at a job or activity.
Sometimes I have to give information quickly, without time to think it over. Then I would say something "right off the bat." If someone is doing an extremely good job and is very successful, you might say he or she is "batting one thousand."
If I say I want to "touch base" with you, I will talk to you from time to time about something we plan to do. I might say I "touched all the bases" if I did what is necessary to complete a job or activity. And if I "covered my bases" I was well prepared. However, someone who is "way off base" did something wrong or maybe even dishonest or immoral. A person with strange ideas might be described as "out in left field."
Finally, when a situation changes completely, we say "that is a whole new ballgame."
64．The passage is the script of a program for _______.
A．sports in America B．words and their stories
C．the way to study English D．the history of idioms
66．What does the underlined sentence “The batter also is out” mean?
A．The batter comes out from his position.
B．The batter will not continue the game.
C．The match will be over suddenly.
D．The batter will change his position.
66．Which of the following expressions can show the meaning that someone is ready to do something?
A．right off the bat B．threw a curve ball
C．cover his bases D．that is a whole new ballgame
67．The purpose of the passage is to ________.
A．indicate baseball isAmerica’s national sport
B．explain the rules of a sport game
C．introduce some useful expressions from baseball
D．show the connection between expressions and sports
D
Having effective time management skills means that you are able to employ your time and get a list of things done in an established time frame. When you are able to finish all tasks on a list in the given time, you know you have good time management skills. You can see the problems it will cause if the time management skills are lacking or missing all together. There are effects emotionally when we have the feeling of failure and when we have wasted a day on which we should have done something else.
Planning your everyday activities can become a lot easier if you keep a planner. You shouldn’t plan over 168 hours of your week. Also, remember to take sleeping and eating into account, or other necessary activities. Another good rule is to be realistic about your goals. And if you know a project is going to take you 20 minutes, don’t write 15 minutes down.
Employers like to see people who have good time management skills. If an employee doesn’t use good time management skills then profits may be lost, and the boss is not likely to be happy with that result. People who do not have good time management skills are usually thought lazy. If you want your life to be more efficient and successful then you should consider adopting good time management skills. To successfully acquire these skills you need to follow the plans and goals you set for yourself each day. It is not hard to develop good time management skills, but it does take some time. You will need to have discipline to change bad habits into good ones.
When you use your time effectively then you will find yourself feeling less stressful, and having more time in the long run to enjoy your life, and your work.
68．Having effective time management skills means that _______.
A．you can have the worst emotional effects
B．discipline is not necessary in changing bad habits

Learn to Communicate with Others
Talking to Teachers—Teachers are just people behind the desk, living breathing human beings. And they will probably be friendly to people who talk nicely to them. Teachers also seem to get along better with children who take schoolwork seriously and prepare for class. And, just like any other human being, teachers like to be appreciated . The next time your teacher helps you solve a math problem or work out a science project, say “thank you” with a smile.
Talking To Parents—Parents can be very supportive if their children ask for help. If you think there’s something your parents can do to help you feel more comfortable around people, then ask them. Very often, parents want very much to help, but really don’t know what to do. Pick a quiet time of the day and ask to talk. Tell them how you feel. Maybe they had the same trouble when they were kids.
Talking to Strangers—This is always a tough one. How do you deal with a neighbor, or the mail carrier? That often seems to cause arguments between kids and parents. The answer to these questions will vary from kid to kid, from parent to parent because all cultures are different. Some people live in small towns where a hello to everyone is ok. Then there are kids who live in the city who may have been taught not to speak to anyone they don’t know. If you’re having trouble with this and always feel awkward in these kinds of situations, you might want to talk to your parents or a teacher about it.
72．If your parents are not supportive and you are not getting along quite well with your parents, who or what is to blame?
A．Lack of communication B．Yourself
C． Your parents D．Your teachers
73．The underlined word in the third paragraph is close in meaning to .
A．afraid B．happy C．embarrassed D．easy
74．Who does the writer write this passage for?
A．kids B．teachers C．school headmasters D．parents
75．Which is the best way to talk to strangers according to the passage?
A．Say hello to everyone you meet. B．Do not talk to anyone you don’t know.
C．Do as what your parents taught you. D．It’s hard to say because cultures are different.
