Well, I'm happy to tell you what I know.When I started school here, it had already been a week since the schoo1 opened.At this school, freshmen usually go on a trip for about three days at the beginning of school. Unfortunately I missed that wonderful trip, which would have been the best time to get to know my classmates.I was really sad.I wished I'd known about it earlier.Despite the disappointment, however, I gradually adapted to my new life and schoo1.There is a space in the basement of the teaching building where students chat and meet each other.As we do not always have the same classrooms and classmates, the school wants us to get toknow each other there.Students usually come to school early, sit in that space and have fun.Around the space, there are many lockers for students to leave their books in, so that students do not have to carry a heavy schoolbag everywhere.It really surprises me that we have almost no textbooks.We only have textbooks for World History and Algebra and they are big and heavy, like bricks.For other classes, we only need binders (活页夹) with paper in them.Without textbooks, students learn things freely and actively.For example, my humanities teacher just teaches us what is in her mind at the time.We never know what we will learn.Another difference between American schools and Chinese schools is that American schools care about students' morality more than their academic studies.For example, if you do not finish your homework, you will just be asked to do it later, but if you cheat or lie, you will get a warning or even be kicked out.I think that most students here are good at schoolwork as well, but compared to Chinese students, they can make learning a more joyful experience.I think we should take the good points from our two different kinds of education to perfect our approach to studying.1．What was the writer sad for?A．He was late for school.B．He missed the trip at the beginning of school.C．He didn't know anyone.D．American students looked down upon him.2．Why do students go to the basement of the teaching building?A．To attend class.B．To share a classroom.C．To have fun.D．To meet teachers.3．According to the passage, in American high schools, ________．A．you are likely to be kicked out if you cheatB．you'll be punished if you do not finish your homeworkC．students are better at school work than Chinese studentsD．students care much about the grades they getBFood Festivals Around the WorldStilton Cheese RollingMay Day is a traditional day for celebrations, but the 2，000 English villagers of Stilton must be the only people in the world who include cheese rolling in their annual plans. Teams of four, dressed in a variety of strange and funny clothes, roll a complete cheese along a 50-metre course. On the way, they must not kick or throw their cheese, or go into their competitors' lane. Competition is fierce and the chief prize is a complete Stilton cheese weighing about four kilos (disappointingly,but understandably the cheeses used in the race are wooden ones). All the competitors are served with beer or port wine, the traditional accompaniment for Stilton cheese.Fiery Foods Festival — The Hottest Festival on EarthEvery year more than 10，000 people head for the city of Albuquerque, New Mexico. They come from as far away as Australia, the Caribbean and China, but they all share a common addiction — food that is not just spicy, but hot enough to make your mouth burn, your head spin and your eyes water. Their destination is the Fiery Food and BBQ Festival which is held over a period of three days every March. You might like to try a chocolate covered habanero pepper — officially the hottest pepper in the world — or any one of the thousands of products that are on show. But one thing's for sure — if you don't like the feeling of a burning tongue, this festival isn't for you!La Tomatina — The World's Biggest Food FightOn the last Wednesday of every August, the Spanish town of Bunol hosts La Tomatina — the world's largest food fight. A week-long celebration leads up to an exciting tomato battle as the highlight of the week's events. The early morning sees the arrival of large trucks with tomatoes —official fight-starters get things going by casting tomatoes at the crowd.The battle lasts little more than half an hour, in which time around 50，000 kilograms of tomatoes have been thrown at anyone or anything that moves, runs, or fights back. Then everyone heads down to the river to make friends again — and for a much-needed wash!4．In the Stilton cheese rolling competition, competitors on each team must ________．A．wear various formal clothesB．roll a wooden cheese in their own laneC．kick or throw their cheeseD．use a real cheese weighing about four kilos5．Where is the Fiery Food and BBQ Festival held?A．In New Mexico.
