AWhen students enter the main hallway, signs above the entryway remind them: “On ly English.” In the Beijing school’s main entrance­hall stands a big board with the names of more than 50 top universities in the United States.At the High School Attached to Capital Normal University, 190 students are taking AP classes taught in English by American or Canadian teachers.When the time comes to apply to US colleges, they get help through a new partnership with Germantown Academy. The school pays a private school in Pennsylvania to provide one-on-one guidance consulting for Chinese students in person three times a year, or long-distance help via Skype and e-mail. Germantown’s administrators also advise the school on its AP curriculum.The popularity of the program reflects the growing number of middle-class families with the desire and finances, to send their sons and daughters abroad to study.“They know that if the students are going to be players on the world stage, they need to think, create and make revolutionary changes in the same way that kids from Western countries do，” said James Connor, head of school at Germantown.Despite the economic recession, Chinese students still view American education as superior.The number of undergraduates from China on US campuses has surged from 8,659 to 74,516 in the last decade, according to the nonprofit Institute of International Education in New York.“Though China is growing in many ways, a US education is still the best，said Heqing Isabelle Huang, 18，who has applied to five schools: Northwestern，Virginia, Michigan, Notre Dame, and Illinois.Her school, the High School Attached to Capital Normal University, was the first public school of its kind in Beijing when it opened in 2008.

The next challenge is to take full advantage of everything your college has to offer, to get good grades, all the while having a great time. To make your first semester a success, you need to carefully choose your classes.Sign up for the minimum number of classes (usually 12 units). There's going to be plentyof time for you to take all of the classes you need. Don’t fall into the trap of thinking y ou need to prove your academic prowess (非凡的技能) by taking a much larger than average number of classes. It's important that you give yourself time to adapt to college life, including managing your schoolwork, activities and all the other things that a college offers you.Choose classes that you know you will do well in. In other words, based on your experience in high school, sign up for courses in which you can get A's, regardless of the content. Are you good at English? Do you love history? Have you spent time as a Madrigal (牧歌)singer? Sign up for classes in those areas.Don't fall into the trap of taking the hardest math, science, or whatever classes available to show other students how smart you are. Frankly, no one is going to care, and you might just get yourself into academic trouble.Ask upperclassmen who the good professors are. See if there is a college website that offers teacher evaluations. And for sure, don't sign up with a professor who gets bad reviews. Unlike high school, you can be picky about which courses and professors you choose.Once you have your class schedule, get a campus map and go to each of the buildings where your classes will be held. If a classroom is open, go in, look around and decide where you want to sit and feel much less anxious than most other new students.29．The passage is written to give advice on________.A. what classes you should choose at collegeB. how many classes you can choose at collegeC. how to choose classes at collegeD. how to get A's in the courses you choose at college30．You'd better sign up for the minimum number of classes because________.A. you are not allowed to take more than 12 unitsB. you need to prove your academic prowessC. college courses are hard to learnD. you need time to adapt to college life31．When you choose classes, you should avoid________.A. the easiest onesB. the most difficult onesC. those others don't care forD. those that you are familiar with32．When you want to sign up with a professor, you should consider________.A. how he gets along with upperclassmenB. whether he has rich teaching experienceC. how other students think of him on the websiteD. how much attention he gets on the websiteDBad teeth can be painful and even be deadly. Infections of the gums(牙龈) and teeth can release bacteria into the blood system. Those bacteria can increase the chance of a heart attack or stroke and worsen the effects of other diseases. And adults are not the only ones at risk. For example, a 12-year- old boy died when a tooth infection spread to his brain in 2007 in Washington. Experts said it might have been prevented had he received the dental care he needed.Experts say good dental care starts at birth. Breast milk, they say, is the best food for the healthy development of teeth. Breast milk can help slow bacterial growth and acid production in the mouth. But dentists say a baby's gums and early teeth should be cleaned after each feeding by using a cloth with a little warm water. Experts say if you decide to put your baby to sleep with a bottle, give only water.When baby teeth begin to appear, you can clean them with a wet toothbrush. Dentists say it is important to find soft toothbrushes made especially for babies and to use them very gently. The use of fluoride (氟化物) to protect teeth is common in many parts of the world. For example, it is often added to drinking water supplies. The fluoride mixes with enamel(釉质), the hard surface on teeth, to help prevent holes from forming.But young children often swallow toothpaste when they brush their teeth. The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry notes that swallowing fluoridated toothpaste can cause problems. So young children should be carefully watched when they brush their teeth. And only a small amount of fluoridated toothpaste, the size of a pea, should be used.Parents often wonder what effect finger sucking might have on their baby's teeth. Dental experts generally agree that this is fine early in life. Most children stop sucking their fingers by the age of four. If it continues, experts advise parents to talk to their children's dentists or doctors. Because it could interfere_with the correct development of permanent teeth.Dentists say children should have their first dental visit at least by the time they are one year old. They say babies should be examined when their first teeth appear－usually at around six months.33．According to the passage, what is the function of fluoride?A. Making the surface on teeth much cleaner.B. Protecting gums from being infected.C. Keeping holes on teeth from forming.D. Slowing down bacterial growth and acid production.34．The underlined phrase “interfere with” in Para. 5 probably means “________”．A. do harm toB. account forC. contribute toD. stand for35．What is the purpose of the author in writing the passage?A. To warn us of the deadly infections of gums and teeth.B. To introduce the advantages of fluoridated toothpaste.C. To draw our attention to the dental care of young children.D. To present the research results about dental care.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
