School Life in the UK
Going to a British high school for one year was a very enjoyable and exciting experience for me. I was very happy with the school ____11____ in Britain because school starts around 9 a.m. and ends about 3.30 p.m. This means I could get up an hour later than ____12____, as schools in China begin before 8 a.m.
On the first day, all of the new students went to attend an assembly in the school hall. I sat next to a girl whose name was Dianne. We soon became best friends. During assembly, the headmaster told us about the rules of the school. We should mind our ____13____ based on the rules. He also told us that the best way to live up to our parents’ ____14____ was to work hard and ____15____ high grades. This sounded like my school in China.
I had many teachers in the past year. Mr. Heywood, my class teacher, was very helpful. He told us that the more ____16____ we are, the more easily we can succeed. My favorite teacher was Miss Burke -I loved the lessons that she gave in English Literature. She asked us to ____17____ before we decide. In our class, there were 28 students. This is about the average size for British schools. We had to move to different classrooms for different classes. We also had different students in some classes, so it was a struggle for me to remember all the faces and names.
I found that the ____18____ was not as heavy as what I used to get in my old school. However, it was a bit challenging for me at first. I felt lucky, as almost all of my teachers gave me much encouragement, although a few make ____19____ comments on my essays. I would never be ____20____ for studying in this school.
三、完形填空
It’s believed that clever people are better at learning languages. Most language learning skills, ____21____, are habits, which can be formed through a bit of discipline. Here are the three most common ____22____ language learners make and how to correct them.
Not listening enough
There’s a school of language-teaching experts that believe language learning ____23____ a “silent period“. Just as babies learn to produce language by hearing and parroting sounds, language learners need to practise listening in order to learn. Listening is the communicative skill we use most in daily life, but it can be ____24____ to practise unless you live in a foreign country or attend language classes. The solution Find music, podcasts, TV shows and movies in the ____25____ languages, and listen, listen, listen, as often as possible.
A single method
Some learners are most comfortable with the listen-and-repeat practice in a language lab. Some need a grammar textbook to ____26____ a foreign tongue. Each of these approaches is fine, but it’s a mistake to rely on only one. Language learners who use ____27____ methods get to practise different skills and see concepts explained in different ways. What’s more, the ____28____ can keep them from working in a situation that never changes. When choosing a class, learners should seek a course that ____29____ the four language skills (reading, writing, listening and speaking ). For self-study, try a ____30____ of textbooks, audio lessons, and language learning apps.
____31____
It doesn’t matter how well a person can write in foreign script, or finish a vocabulary test. To learn, improve, and truly use our language, we need to speak. This is the stage when language students should calm down, and feelings of ____32____ or unsafety hinder (阻碍) all their hard work. In Eastern cultures where saving face is a strong social value, EFL teachers often complain that students, despite years of studying English, simply will not speak it. They’re too ____33____ making mistakes of the grammar or mispronouncing words in a way that would ____34____ them.
The key is that those mistakes help language learners by showing them the limits of language, and correcting errors ____35____ they become deep-rooted. The more learners speak and practise, the more quickly they improve.

四、阅读理解
A
When someone asks me what my goals are for the coming year, I don’t usually know how to reply. Of course I, as most people do, want to see an improvement in my grades. This year, however, I’m hoping for something different.
Through the course of my school life, I’ve gradually developed a new understanding of the word “prioritization (优先次序)”. The first thing I wish to get in Senior One is the ability to manage my time better. I’ll surely become busier with the coming semester, and proper organization is important. From school clubs to academic competitions, everything should be set up in a way that doesn’t influence my health, which leads me to my second goal.
My mother has always told me put my health first, so in the future, I hope to be both physically and mentally healthy. A person can’t study without the energy to do so. In order to stay energetic, they must put their health first, no matter how busy they are, or how much work they have to complete.
And finally, I hope that I won’t be discouraged by my failure and never give up on my dreams. I hope that I’ll have the courage to try new activities and clubs. I believe my final goal can apply to every student around the world. We should all respect one another’s likes and dislikes, and focus on each other’s strengths, not our weaknesses. Everyone should try to make use of all of life’s opportunities.
Albert Einstein once said, “Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance, you must keep moving.” In my case, it’s the other way around. In order to keep moving, I must keep my balance—the balance between studies and activities, efficiency and procrastination (拖延症), academics and health, passions and dislikes. The new journey is going to be a hard one, but if I set these goals, I believe I will make it through to the end.
36. During Senior One, what does the writer want to do first
A．Focus on improving her overall grades.
B．Join as many school clubs as possible.
C．Learn how to manage her time well.
D．Spend more time on outdoor activities.
37. What is the attitude of the writer towards failure
A．Discouraged. B．Brave. C．Worried. D．Careful.
38. What does the underlined sentence “it’s the other way around” in the last paragraph mean
A．It is the opposite.
B．It is difficult.
C．It is necessary.
D．It is helpful.
39. What is the writer’s purpose of the passage
A．To share her goals for the coming school year.
B．To stress the importance of health to students.
C．To show what she likes about high school life.
D．To explain how to balance studies and activities.

Columbus College, 241 Queen Elizabeth Drive, Kowloon City MEMO
To: All staff
From: Jakie Mok, Secretary; Sports Development Committee
Date: May 20, 2010
A week ago, “Sports for Life” programme was sent to the parents, requiring them to select a sport they wanted their child to play. Since then, our staff have received lots of calls from parents asking for more information about it. Here is a memo for your reference when you answer the phones.
Sport 1: Basketball
We expect that this will be the most popular of the four sports. Therefore, students should be advised to sign up as soon as possible. Students will take a private bus to and from KwunTong Sports Park. To cover the cost of hiring a bus, each student will have to pay $10 each time. There will be four basketball courts available for our use with one teacher watching over each game.
Sports 2: Gym
We will be using St. Peter’s Memorial Park. There are two reasons for choosing this park. First, it is not very busy and crowded before 6 :00 p.m.. Second, it has lot of trees with plenty of shade. Students must bring along two bottles of water to prevent thirst. Three activities, skipping, jogging, outdoor aerobics (有氧运动), all of which are free of charge, will be arranged. And there will be a teacher on duty for each of the activities.
Sport 3: Hiking
Hiking will take place at Kowloon Peak. The activity will start at 2:30 p.m. and finish 90 minutes later. Three teachers will accompany the students, and a hiking instructor will accompany each group of 15 hikers. Each instructor will cost $75/hr.
Sport 4: Swimming
The Kowloon City Aquatic Centre is a 10-minute walk from our school. Four teachers will go the pool and conduct the goings-on from the poolside. We will only be able to reserve the pool for one hour (i. e. 2:45 p.m. to 3:45 p.m.). Only students skillful at swimming can take up this activity. The pool will have two lifeguards present. Girls must wear a swimming suit. The cost is $10 per visit.
40. Which can be inferred from the passage ________.
A．Students taking part in basketball will walk to the courts

D．Students having swimming suits can take up swimming.
42. The memo aims to ________.
A．attract students’ interest in the programme
B．help the staff explain the programme to the parents
C．require the parents to select a sport for their child
D．remind teachers and lifeguards to be present on time
C
If you think that running marathons will help you live a long and healthy life, new research may come as a shock. According to a recent scientific study, people who do a very strenuous workout are as likely to die as people who do no exercise at all.
Scientists in Denmark have been studying over 1,000 joggers and non-joggers for 12 years. The death rates from the sample group indicate that people who jog at a moderate pace two or three times a week for less than two and a half hours in total are least likely to die. The best speed to jog at was found to be about 5 miles per hour. The research suggests that people who jog more than three times a week or at higher speeds of over 7 mph die at the same rate as non-joggers. The scientists think that this is because strenuous exercise causes structural changes to the heart and arteries(动脉). Over time, this can cause serious injuries.
Peter Schnohr, a researcher in Copenhagen, said, “If your goal is to decrease risk of death and improve life expectancy, jogging a few times a week at a moderate pace is a good strategy. Anything more is just unnecessary, and it may be harmful.”
The implications of this are that moderate forms of exercise such as tai chi, yoga and brisk walking may be better for us than “iron man” events, triathlons and long-distance running and cycling. According to Jacob Louis Marott, another researcher involved in the study， “You don't actually have to do that much to have a good impact on your health. And perhaps you shouldn't actually do too much.”
43. The underlined word “strenuous” in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to “________”．
A．hard B．regular C．practical D．little
44. The author presents some figures in Paragraph 2 to ________.
A．suggest giving up jogging
B．show risks of doing sports
C．provide supportive evidence
D．introduce the research process
45. According to the scientists, why is too much exercise harmful
A．It may injure the heart and arteries.
B．It can make the body tired out.
C．It will bring much pressure.
D．It consumes too much energy.
46. What can be inferred from the text
A．Jogging is the best exercise.
B．More exercise means a healthier life.
C．Marathons runners are least likely to die.
D．Proper exercise contributes to good health.
D
Directions: Read the passage carefully. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.
We say yes for many reasons. But if we're in the habit of saying yes too often, we may find ourselves unhappy, or angry. ____47____ When we say yes out of duty, we're not taking care of ourselves and end up disappointing and hurting ourselves. Follow these simple tips to help you say no with love.
____48____ I had the bad habit of saying yes to things right away and then feeling terrible later. When Jane asks if you can watch her dog this weekend, tell her you're honored that she thought of you and that you'd be happy to let her know at the end of the day or the next morning.
Three breaths and two questions. If we are in the habit of saying yes, every question can cause stress. Take three deep breathe before you answer, which will ground you. Then ask yourself these questions: "Am I able to Do I want to " Just because we're able to do something doesn't mean we should or that we need to.
Turn them down and offer alternatives. ____49____ Your mind may tell you that you're selfish（自私的）or you're a bad person for saying no. This is not true. You are saying no because you value yourself, your time, and your energy. Saying no can look something like this: "I appreciate you thinking of me to watch your dog but unfortunately I'm not able to this weekend." Or "Unfortunately I'm not able to this weekend, but my friend Sally loves dogs and said she'd be around this weekend. Let me know if you'd like her number."
Simply say no, with a smile. "Thanks for thinking of me, but I'm not able to do that." Then smile. ____50____ When you're able to say no easily and without guilt, you might even find that you are more willing to volunteer or participate because when you do, it will be out of joy.
A．Say thanks and think it over.
B．Saying no can be the hardest step.
C．Learning to say no protects our energy and time.
D．Offer something that you would be comfortable with.
E．We don't want to disappoint them or hurt their feelings.
F．By being able to say no in a loving way, it shows self-respect.

Dear Jim,
I’m writing to express my sincere gratitude for inviting my family and me to Rome this summer and your warm hospitality during our trip.
Rome is such a fantastic city. We visited countless ancient buildings like the Colosseum, which amazed us with its long history. We also tasted various local delicious foods such as authentic pasta and pizza, leaving an unforgettable impression on us.
In my opinion, travelling abroad is a precious experience. It allows us to admire different scenery, taste unique food and learn about foreign cultures, broadening our horizons greatly.
Thank you again for everything you did for us. Hope we can meet again soon!
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
