五、阅读理解（共20分）
（一）阅读短文，选择正确答案（每小题2分，共10分）
School life varies greatly around the world. In Finland, for example, school starts at 9 a.m. and ends at 2 p.m. or 3 p.m. This is because Finnish educators believe that students learn better when they get enough sleep. Finnish schools also have very little homework. Instead of giving students a lot of written tasks, teachers focus on hands-on activities, such as experiments and group projects, to help students learn.
In Japan, school life is more structured. Students usually start school at 8 a.m. and finish at 4 p.m. After school, many students take part in "juku", which are private tutoring classes. These classes help students prepare for important exams, as getting into a good high school or university is very competitive in Japan. Japanese students also have to clean their classrooms and schoolyards every day. This is to teach them responsibility and teamwork.
In India, many schools follow a traditional system. Students sit in rows and listen to teachers' lectures. However, in recent years, some schools have started to adopt more modern teaching methods. For example, they use computers and the Internet to make lessons more interesting. After-school activities are also becoming more popular in India. Students can join clubs for music, dance, sports and debate.
No matter how different school life is around the world, its main purpose is always to help students gain knowledge, develop skills and become responsible people.
( ) 1. Why do Finnish schools start late
A. Because students need enough sleep to learn better.
B. Because teachers have to prepare lessons for a long time.

A. A lot of written homework.
B. Hands-on activities like experiments.
C. Private tutoring classes.
( ) 3. What is "juku" in Japan

（二）阅读短文，判断正（T）误（F）（每小题2分，共10分）
My name is Sarah, and I'm a Grade 8 student in Australia. My school life is quite different from what I heard about schools in other countries.
First, our school year starts in February and ends in December. We have a two-week holiday in April, a three-week holiday in July and a six-week holiday in December. This is because Australia is in the southern hemisphere, so the seasons are opposite to those in the northern hemisphere.
At school, we have to wear school uniforms. Our uniform is a blue dress for girls and a blue shirt with grey trousers for boys. We also have to wear black shoes and white socks. If we don't wear the uniform correctly, we will get a warning from the teacher.
We have six classes a day, from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Each class lasts 45 minutes. After the third class, we have a 30-minute break for lunch. During lunchtime, we can eat in the school cafeteria or bring our own lunch from home. Many students like to sit on the grass in the school yard and eat with their friends.
After school, there are many after-school activities to choose from. I joined the drama club because I love acting. We practice twice a week and put on a play at the end of each term. My best friend Emma is in the music club. She plays the piano and often performs in school concerts.
I really enjoy my school life in Australia. It's busy but fun, and I've learned a lot not only from my classes but also from the after-school activities.
( ) 1. Sarah's school year in Australia starts in January and ends in November.
( ) 2. Australia's seasons are opposite to those in the northern hemisphere.
( ) 3. Sarah's school uniform for girls is a blue shirt with grey trousers.
( ) 4. Sarah has a 30-minute lunch break after the third class every day.
( ) 5. Sarah joined the music club and her best friend Emma joined the drama club.

My Ideal School Life
My ideal school life is full of fun and growth. The school should have a big and beautiful campus with lots of green trees, colorful flowers and a large playground where we can play sports freely.
In terms of courses, I hope there are more practical and interesting subjects, such as cooking, robot-making and photography. These courses can help us develop different skills and find our interests. I also wish the class size is small, so that teachers can pay more attention to each student and help us solve problems in time.
After school, there should be various after-school clubs, like the hiking club, the book club and the film-making club. I can join the ones I like and make friends with people who have the same hobbies. We can organize activities together, such as weekend hikes or film screenings.
In my ideal school, there is no too much homework. We can have more time to read books we love, play with friends or relax. This kind of school life will make me happy and help me become a better person.
