In America, when the eighth graders leave the middle school, they are often worried about moving to the high school. It is a hard time for them, but it can be an exciting one as well. To make it easier, students need to get familiar with their school.

Even though they’ve done this already in the middle school, it’s still important to find where their classrooms are. Most schools take students to the high school for a visit at the end of their eighth grade year. And, most schools also have a freshman (新生)speech for parents and students before the first year begins. Sometimes the main office will give away a map of the school. This can help students and parents to find different places in the school.

One way to know your high school more and make new friends is to join a club or play a sport. Schools often offer chances to join different clubs and sports. Fall activities begin in August before the first day of school. If you are not interested in sports, there are clubs for any interest, such as drama, dance, chess, photography, community service, etc. These clubs allow students from different grades. By joining an activity, students can find new friendships, not to mention improving their chances in future college applications (申请). The school office will have a list of activities offered at the school and information on how to join them.

What’s more, to have a great start to a high school year, students can write down some of their worries, and ask for help from teachers and school workers.

试题分析:这是一篇说明文,文章主要讲了即将升入高中的同学们有很多苦恼,以及为了帮他们克服这些问题,学校通过哪些途径和方法帮助他们更好的适应高中生活。其中主要的就是他们可以参加一些俱乐部和体育运动来融入学校。

1. are often worried about moving to the high school”(他们经常担心要搬到高中去)中worried意思相近(同)的词。所以选B

2.选项B 与原文不符there are clubs for any interest,,选项C由第三段中的“Fall activities begin in August before the first day of school.”意为秋季的活动始于开学前的8月份。由这句可看出C是错的。答案:D

It’s natural to greet friends with a smile and a wave. ___【小题1】____ But what happens if your face and body send mixed messages? Would someone be more likely to believe the look on your face or the way you hold your body?
Scientists have recently tackled these questions. They found that when a person is looking at your face, she might not believe what she sees of your body language doesn’t match the feeling that your face shows. ___【小题2】____ Previously, they had found that the tone of a person’s voice can be more important than the words that are spoken. For example, most people tend not to believe a person who says in a flat voice, “I’m so excited.”
When it came to emotions conveyed by facial expressions and body language, most scientists suspected that the face was more important. To test if this was true, psychologists from the Netherlands and Boston showed people a number of pictures of isolated(孤立的) faces and isolated bodies(with faces blurred out (模糊的))that showed anger or fear. 【小题3】____
An angry face had low eyebrows and tight lips. A scared face had high eyebrow and a slightly open mouth. 【小题4】___ A scared body had arms forward and shoulders square, as if ready to defend.
These results told the researchers that mixed signals can confuse people. Even when people pay attention to the face, body language subtly(微妙地) influences which emotion they read.
___ 【小题5】____And if you want to be understood, it helps to avoid sending mixed messages.

A.Scientists feel new to study the mixed message that confuses people.
B.When you do this, your face and body work together to show your friends that you’re happy to see them.
C. Studying such mixed messages is nothing new for scientists..
D.They also showed pictures in which angry or scared faces were paired with angry or scared bodies
E.Body language can sometimes be misunderstood in different culture backgrounds.
F.So, your body language is important for telling people how you feel.
G.An angry body had arms back and shoulders at an angle, as if ready to fight.
