The winter break is just about to end. Soon we will be back at school. It’s with both happiness and
sadness. I look very much forward to seeing my friends and starting practice again, but it also means
I’m officially(正式地) half way through the exchange year. With school starting there are new things to
try out and experience. For example? I’m starting a new sport, Track. It’s similar to Cross Country,
which I did from August till November.
Being here for half a year now? I can easily tell the differences between my two schools. The
hardest or most different part for me was to have the same schedule every day here. Honestly, I prefer to
have different classes every day, as I did in my home country. However, I have fallen in love with the
Friday football games. Football is one of my favorite sports now. Before I came, I knew nothing about
it. Now I love it, especially to watch it with my host parents. I have also been so lucky to go to two
college football games.
Before I left school in December, I had a couple of tests called Mid-term Test. They all went
pretty smooth, mostly because I didn’t have too many hard classes. My favorite class was English, and
also my hardest. Personally I really liked English, where I could write essays(文章), challenge writing
skills and improve English talking.
Only four days of winter break is left. A part of me wants to be on a break forever, and the other
part expects to get started again, start a new sport and see my friends and classmates.
24．Why does the author feel sad before school starts again?
A．Her homework is not finished.
B．The exchange year will end soon.
C．Her school life will get harder.
D．The new sport no longer attracts her.
25．How does the school in the author’s home country differ from the one she is in now?
A．The courses are richer.
B．The teachers are kinder.
C．The meals are healthier.
D．The holidays are longer.
26．What does the author enjoy doing most with the host family?
A．Having a talk in English.
B．Playing video games.
C．Watching football matches.
D．Visiting her relatives.
27．What does the underlined word “They” in the third paragraph refer to?
A．Classes.
B．Tests.
C．Games.
D．Students.
C
A teenager needs to have a sense of independence(独立) in their life to feel secure (安全
的). To some teenagers independence means a lot to them, and I think that some parents don’t
allow their teenagers enough independence.
Independence has something to do with freedom(自由). Some kids are not allowed to go
anywhere alone, and the only thing their schedule includes is going to school, coming home,
going to sleep, and repeating the process the next day. Parents tend to be afraid that their kids
can get hurt if they go outside into the world. But if parents control their kids too much, they
may never learn to live on their own. The best way for a teenager to learn lesson is through
experience. I think it is beneficial for teenagers to have freedom.
Teenagers’ lack of freedom can also stop them from having good friendship at school.
Some might say this is a good thing, because it helps them focus more on their school work.
I argue that this can only discourage them not to do their school work. Some parents do not
allow their children to be around their friends outside the school, thinking that this will get
them into trouble. But I don’t think so. Instead, isn’t this a good reason for parents to get
their children a cellphone? Cellphones allow teenagers to stay in touch with their parents, and
communicate with friends.
Privacy( 隐私) is another issue between parents and their teenagers. Teenagers tend to
enjoy relaxation by themselves in their own room. This also gives them a sense of
independence. It often annoys teenagers when their parents enter their room when they are not
home. I know that my mom always goes in my room when I’m not home, and this has
brought me to the point where I have asked many times to get a lock on my door.
28．What is the main idea of the second paragraph?
A．It benefits teenagers to have freedom.
B．Some parents allow their kids no freedom.
C．Kids know how to live independently.
D．Kids have a dull routine every day
29．According to the third paragraph, the author believes ________ .
A．it is unnecessary for a kid to have a cellphone
B．kids should focus on the school work
C．parents should make it easy for kids to communicate with their friends
D．good friendships between kids harm their school work
30．How do teenagers usually feel when their parents enter their rooms in their absence?
A．Angry
B．Lucky
C．Disappointed
D．Calm
31．The author hopes to have her door locked in order to________.
A．keep her father from reading her dairy
B．stop thieves from going in
C．protect herself from any harm
D．prevent her mother entering her room

For many years the school system in Finland has been very successful. In the PISA’s survey,
which compares reading, math and science knowledge of 15⁃year⁃olds around the world, Finland not
only is the top European country but also competes with Asian giants (巨头) like China, Singapore and
South Korea. But what makes the education system in this small country so different from others in the
western world?
Until the 1960s Finland’s school system had been influenced largely by its neighbor, the Soviet
Union. Most students left school after six years; some went on to private schools. Only the wealthy ones
got a better education. In the middle of the 1960s the Finnish government saw the need to change and
modernize their education system if they wanted to be internationally competitive. Lawmakers made a
simple decision: a basic school for all the 7-16⁃year⁃olds. Compulsory education (义务教育) begins at
7. The government makes it possible for all children to attend preschool (幼儿园) as well.
Teachers work with their pupils in school as much as possible. When teachers are not with the
pupils, they spend a lot of time in schools working on the curriculum and new projects. Schools in
Finland are small, at least for international standards. So teachers know every pupil in their school and
try everything to succeed with their pupils. That is why dropout rates are low compared to other
countries. In contrast to other nations, teachers in Finland are highly respected. Finland selects its
teachers very carefully: only talented students go on to university and receive a master’s degree in
education. Finland only takes the best to educate its youth.
All Finnish children, whether they come from the city or the country, whether from a rich or poor
family, have the same chances of education. There are not so many differences between the wealthy and
the poor, as in America or other Western European countries. Education experts say that there is very
little difference between very good and very bad students. Two thirds of Finnish pupils move on to
higher education, the highest rate in the European Union.
32．What does the author want to show by mentioning China, Singapore and South Korea in the first
paragraph?
A．Asian countries are successful in school education.
B．The school system in Finland has been very successful.
C．Students in these countries are better than those in European countries.
D．The education system in Asia is different from that in the western world.
33．What did the Finnish government do in the middle of the 1960s?
A．They changed the school system.
B．They lengthened (延长) preschool education.
C．They encouraged students to go to private schools.
D．They learned modern education from neighboring countries.
34．What can we learn from the text?
A．The children in Finland are educated equally.
B．The children in Finland get compulsory education at the age of six.
C．The school system in Finland is better than that in Singapore.
D．The schools in Finland don’t meet international standards.
35．What can be the best title for the text?
A．What Differences European Schools Have
B．What Good Schools Provide Students with
C．Why Finland’s School System Is Successful
D．Why Finland’s School System Has Changed
第二节 （共5 小题；每小题2.5 分，满分12.5 分）
阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选
项。
With each book you read, your mind expands, your vocabulary grows, and your imagination gets
a good exercise. But many people find themselves reading fewer books than they want.
36
Keep a book on you.
One of the best ways to make sure you’re reading as much as possible is to have a book on you at
most (or all!) times.
37
Maybe it’s while you wait in line to get a coffee. Or while you wait
for your bus. Basically, any time you would pull your phone out and scroll, you can pull your book out
and read it.
3
8
How much you should read a day is up to you, but giving yourself a small daily goal will help you
keep your reading habit, especially during busier days. I suggest a sweet-spot of 20minutes per day.
Sure, if you are able to read more during a day, just go for it.
Don’t be afraid to quit.
It happens to most of us. We pick up a book with the intention (意图,目的) of finishing it in no
time, but the story is just not for us. The main character may be unlikable.
39
Whatever the
reason, we just don’t want to keep reading it. And that’s okay. When you just aren’t into a book, you
should 100% quit reading it.
Find a reading community.
40
They allow you a space to dive deeper into what you’re reading about. Finding a
reading community is easier than you think. Aside from the countless reading groups on the internet,
many local bookstores and libraries host book clubs of their own. It’s really nice to meet people who
enjoy the same hobbies as you.
A．Set a daily goal.
B．Read as much as possible.
C．It’s of great importance to choose a good book.
D．Here are a few tips to help you read more books.
E．Or the language may be too difficult to understand.
F．There are many occasions(时刻) when you have the opportunity to read.
G．Things like book clubs are a great way to encourage you to keep reading.
