Going from junior high school to senior high school is a big challenge.
Para 1
What is Adam’s challenge How did he feel
Confused
First, I had to think very carefully about which courses I wanted to take. The school adviser helped me choose the suitable ones: maths, English, chemistry, world history, and Chinese. I know that Chinese is a very difficult language, but I hope to be fluent when I graduate. My adviser recommended that I should sign up for advanced literature because I like English and I’m good at it.

What was Adam's attitude to the challenge and what were the solutions
I had to choose extra-curricular activities, too. I tried to join the school football team, but the coach told me that I didn’t play well enough. Obviously, I was unhappy, but I won’t quit. I’ll find a way to improve on my own so that I can make the team next year. I joined a volunteer club instead. Every Wednesday, we work at a soup kitchen and hand out food to homeless people in the community.
what does “make the team ” means
It means joining the team successfully.
Para 3
What specific 具体的 challenge did Adam meet in choosing extra-currilar What’s his solution to the challenge
He couldn’t join the football team.

I know I’ll have to study harder as a senior high school student and get used to being responsible for a lot more. I’m a bit worried about keeping up with the other students in my advanced course, and it’ll be quite difficult to get used to all the homework. Still, I’m happy to be here. Studying hard isn’t always fun, but I’ll be well prepared for university or whatever else comes in the future.

Para2:
宾语从句
介词后接宾语从句：

形式宾语，再接that引导的宾语从句；
2.what、which、whom等连接词引导的宾语从句可直接放在介词后面。
3. 介词后可接whether引导的宾语从句，但不接由if引导的宾语从句。
句中的介词about后接which引导的宾语从句，which courses在从句中作宾语。

你还知道哪些表达“建议；推荐，命令，要求”的词？
一坚持：insist

四要求：require, request, demand, ask
这些词后跟虚拟语气的从句，即谓语动词用“(should) + 动词原形”
