At Cambridge, rather than choosing a hall of residence or dormitory, you live in a Cambridge College. There are 29 undergraduate Colleges. Each College has its own services, facilities and community.
Applying for accommodation
You don't need to apply for accommodation separately. If you're offered a place to study, you will automatically get a room in College accommodation for your first year.

water, electricity and heating
cleaning
internet access
basic self-catering (自助膳食) facilities
Where you will live
During term time, you will need to live within a 3-mile radius (半径) of Cambridge city centre. You
can live outside of this area if you get permission from your College or if you're studying abroad as part of your course. If you think you'll need to live outside of the 3-mile radius, you should contact a College to talk about your options before you apply.

Some of the classrooms at Taft Elementary in Santa Clara, California, have one disadvantage in common: They don’t have windows. That’s true for Logan Earnest’s fifth grade classroom, and he felt it was affecting his students.
“Most of the day, they’re inside,” Earnest told CBS News. “And they don’t really get to see any trees,
grass, or the blue sky.” He said the gray walls could be depressing to the kids and may affect their attention and even their attendance.
This was confirmed by former school psychologist Ernesto Rodriguez, who said the lack of windows
does affect kids, because research shows being in and around nature eases anxiety and benefits students. Though no longer a practicing psychologist, perhaps he knows now more than ever the impact nature has on mental health. Rodriguez became a park ranger (公园管理员) on Southern California’s Catalina Island
and began focusing on his passion—landscape photography.
It was during his training to become a park ranger that he learned a fact that kids who have views out windows to trees do better academically, emotionally and creatively. So an idea to bring nature into rooms occurred to him: Why not bring landscapes in classrooms—via the ceiling (天花板), because teachers
don’t typically use them.
Rodriguez took 360 degree shots of tree canopies (树冠) using his photography skills, then he printed them and fit them onto the classroom ceiling of Earnest’s fifth grade. “Beautiful,”one student said as she
entered the room. Another student said the trees brought him peace, “When you look up, it feels like
you’re sitting under a tree.”
Earnest said he thought there would be many positive effects on his students. “I think my attendance
is going to go up. The kids are going to want to come here more frequently. Overall, I think the kids are going to be happier,” he said.
What is the common challenge shared by some classrooms at Taft Elementary
A. Lack of fresh air. B. Absence of windows.
C. Insufficient lighting. D. Limited access to technology.
Why did Ernesto Rodriguez bring landscapes into classrooms
To connect the students with nature.
To promote his photography skills.
To improve the teachers’ performance.
To create an exciting environment for the students.
How did the students react to Rodriguez’s pictures on the classroom ceiling
They did not notice the change.
They failed to concentrate on lessons.
They preferred the original gray ceiling.
They were in favour of the new additions.
What’s Logan Earnest’s attitude towards the change in the classroom
A. Cautious and objective. B. Appreciative and supportive.
C. Concerned but doubtful. D. Curious but unsure.
C
People love to hate on pigeons(鸽子) for the way they mess up parked cars or rush to food scraps on
the sidewalk. But with more than 300 species of wild pigeon found on Earth—many of them amazing—it’s time to truly understand the animal. “Pigeons are biological wonders,” says Rosemary Mosco, author of A Pocket Guide to Pigeon Watching. “They can take off almost vertically(垂直地). They see colors we can’t, hear sounds we can’t, and find their way across hundreds of miles using ways we don’t fully understand,” she says. “They’re the world’s most overlooked birds.”
Pigeons are unbelievably complex and intelligent animals. They are one of only a small number of
species to pass the “mirror test”—a test of self-recognition. They can also recognize each letter of the
human alphabet, differentiate between photographs, and even distinguish different humans within a photograph. Besides, pigeons are known for their outstanding navigational abilities. They use a range of
skills, such as using the sun as a guide and an internal “magnetic compass(指南针)”. A study at Oxford
University found that they will also use landmarks as signposts and will travel along man-made roads and
motorways, even changing direction at crossroads. Pigeons also have excellent hearing abilities. They can
detect sounds at far lower frequencies than humans are able to, and can thus hear distant storms and volcanoes.
Despite the social idea as dirty and disease-ridden, pigeons are actually very clean animals and there
is very little evidence to suggest that they are spreading disease. Pigeons and humans have lived in close
3
relationship for thousands of years. Although pigeon droppings are seen by some as a problem in modern
society, a few centuries ago they were seen as extremely valuable. They were viewed as the best available fertilizers(肥料) and armed guards would even stand by pigeon houses to stop others taking the droppings.
What can we know about pigeons from paragraph 1
They do great harm to people.
They are still unknown to people.
They are the world’s most amazing birds.
They have abilities beyond people’s imagination.
What do the underlined words “navigational abilities” mean in paragraph 2
A. The ability to see colors. B. The ability to detect sounds.
C. The ability to find directions. D. The ability to recognize photographs.
What does paragraph 2 mainly tell us
A. Pigeons’ hearing. B. Pigeons’ differences.
C. Pigeons’ qualities. D. Pigeons’ intelligence.
What does the example of armed guards indicate
A. Pigeons are dangerous. B. Pigeons are priceless.
C. Pigeon waste is valuable. D. Pigeon waste is poisonous.
D
People’s first memories are all autobiograpbical (自传式的), or memories of significant experiences
in their lives, and these events typically didn’t happen before the age of 2 or 3. In fact, most people can’t remember things from the first few years of their lives—a phenomenon researchers have called infantile amnesia（童年失忆症）.
However, research suggests that infants (婴儿) can form other kinds of memories. Within the first
few days of life, infants can recall their own mother’s face and tell it from the face of a stranger. A few months later, infants can show that they remember lots of familiar faces by smiling most at the ones they see most often.
But if so, why do people experience infantile amnesia Though it still isn’t clear whether it’s because
we can’t form autobiographical memories, or whether we just have no way to retrieve (找回) them, scientists have a few guesses.
One is that autobiographical memories require you to have some sense of self. Researchers have
tested this ability using a mirror recognition task called the rouge test. It involves marking a baby’s nose with a spot of red lipstick.
Researchers then place the infant in front of a mirror. Infants younger than 18 months just smile at
the baby in the reflection, not showing any evidence of recognizing themselves or the red mark on their
face. Between 18 and 24 months, infants touch their own nose, even looking embarrassed, suggesting that
they connect the red dot in the mirror with their own face and start to form some sense of self.
Another possible explanation is that because infants don’t have language until later in the second
year of life, they can’t form descriptions about their own lives that they can later recall. Finally, the hippocampus （海马体）, which is the region of the brain that’s largely responsible for memory, isn’t fully developed in
the infancy period.
Scientists will continue to investigate how these factors might contribute to infantile amnesia.
What can infants do in their first few months
A. Recognize familiar faces. B. Remember a series of events.
C. Identify their own reflections. D. Memorize their family members.
What does the rouge test show about babies between 18 and 24 months
A. They like looking in the mirror. B. They ignore the marks on their faces.
C. They see their reflections as themselves. D. They enjoy playing with their reflections.
What could be a cause of infantile amnesia according to the text
A. Infants’ lack of social skills. B. Infants’ undeveloped hippocampus.
C. Infants’ inability to recall memories. D. Infants’ unusual autobiographical memories.
Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A. How do kids form their memories B. When do babies start remembering
C. How can we retrieve lost memories D. Why can’t we remember being a baby

Starting the high school life can be a big challenge for many students, but with the right strategies, it
can be a smooth change. 36 .
Get organized
One of the first things you need to do is get organized. 37 . Keeping track of your assignments,
tests, and extracurricular activities will help you manage your time wisely. Setting aside regular time for studying, breaking tasks into manageable parts, and finding a study environment that works for you will make your study and school life easier.
Join clubs and activities
Joining clubs and activities is a great way to meet new people and find like- minded peers(同龄人). Don't be afraid to step out of your comfort zone and try new things. It can also help you discover new
interests and passions. 38 .
4
Seek help when needed
39 . Remember, it's okay to ask for help; no one expects you to know everything. Don't be
afraid to ask teachers, counselors, or peers for help when you need it. Recognizing when you need help is a sign of strength, not weakness. Seeking help can provide you with new perspectives (视角; 观点) and solutions that you might not have considered on your own.
High school is a time for exploration and self- discovery. It's important to remember that everyone is
in the same boat and that it's okay to make mistakes as you learn and grow. Being receptive to different perspectives and backgrounds can help you understand and appreciate the diversity (多样性) in your new class.
Stay positive and open-minded
Focus on your progress rather than mistakes
The first step is to create a schedule or a plan
It's completely normal to feel at a loss at times
Hopefully, here are some benefits of right strategies to make it smooth
Here are some tips to help you make your first year of high school successful
Every new experience is an opportunity to learn more about yourself and the world around you.

Dear David,
I am Li Hua, monitor of Class 1 Grade 1. Knowing more extra-curricular activities will be carried out on campus, I’d like to recommend two sports events on behalf of my class.
Most of us consider that jogging is suitable for both boys and girls. Not only will it benefit our
health but it is also helpful to shape our body. As for the group game, football is much more popular than others especially among boys. All the members learn to cooperate with each other so that they build up important qualities like responsibility and teamwork. For these reasons, I recommend jogging and football.
Hopefully, our recommendations will be taken into consideration. I am looking forward to your
favourable reply.
Yours,
Li Hua

W: Trees are pretty important to the environment. So it makes sense that if you chop down too many
of these and don’t replace them,and you’re going to run into all sorts of problems.The Philippines knows all about that. It’s lost more than two thirds of its forest area in less than a hundred years. In
2003, a slide of a large mass of dirt and rock down a mountain or cliff, or we call a landslide, killed
around two hundred people. Recently another landslide buried an entire village in mud. It’s believed more than one thousand people died.The cause of this landslide is still being debated. Most say it was the heavy rainfall. I mean we’re talking about two thousand millimeters of rain in ten days that’s quite
a downpour. Some say a minor earthquake played a part,while others blamed the removal of trees. Of
course, it could be a combination of all those things.While the Philippines banned chopping down trees for several years,it started again in 2005. Partly because the Philippines population is growing at a rapid rate, so the land is needed for housing and farming. So how do you support the increasing population without ruining the environment Grow more plantations—forests, which are for commercial use. And don’t destroy our native’s forests.
