When you are about to go to a boarding school in England, there are many different questions that may

come to mind. But once you look at them with some perspective, you will certainly feel easy. Here is a normal

boarding day.

Early Morning:

Usually boarders get up around 7: 00 am and have around an hour to take a shower and put on their

uniform before breakfast.

Lessons:

Classes start at 9: 00 am and every lesson lasts for 50 minutes. After two lessons, at 10: 40 am, you’ll have

a short break. The next period of classes will include two more lessons.

Lunch:

Lunch is usually held around 12: 30 pm at the dining hall, where you’ll join your friends to enjoy a hot

dish. After an hour of lunch, you’ll have three or four more lessons to attend.

Dinner:

At 5: 00 pm you will have finished your school lessons for the day. Most boarding schools in the UK offer

their full boarders different kinds of hot meals to choose from.

Activities/ Sports:

All boarding schools in the UK provide many different kinds of activities for their boarders, such as

football, swimming, golf or art. Prep:

An important part of boarding school life is the supervised homework session known as “prep”. Although

prep might sound stressful, it’s a great way for you to keep up with your studies.

Late last year, I needed to transport some furniture from our house to my son’s flat in central London. I

should have paid a man to do it, but foolishly confident in my driving ability, I decided to hire a lorry and drive

it myself.

Moving the lorry backward in my yard, I crashed into a small shed, causing permanent damage.

Fortunately, I owned the shed. I loaded up with the furniture and set out. By now it was rush hour. My nerves

broke down, as I drove the huge lorry through the streets nervously.

At last I arrived at Charlotte Street and found an available parking space. I moved the lorry into it only to

notice three people at a pavement cafe waving to me. I got out, trembling violently, like one who had just finished a stormy Atlantic crossing. “You’ve hit the car parked behind you,” they said. I examined the car.

There were white scratches on its front face. It bore a disabled sign. So, now I was a bad driver and a bad man.

Under the severe look of the three, I left an apologetic note on the damaged car’s windscreen, giving my phone

number.

I unloaded the furniture, dripping the sweat, wanting only to escape from the monster. I drove it back to its

base at Edgware. On arrival, the boss told me I must fill it up with petrol before returning it. “Just charge me,”

I cried, still shaking with fear. He stared at me with understanding. No doubt he’d witnessed others in this state

before. “How about I drive you to a petrol station, you fill up, and I drive it back?” he asked.

He danced the great lorry through the traffic so carefully that it would have shamed me if I had not been so

grateful.

24．The man felt ______ to have delivered the furniture himself.

A．grateful B．regretful

C．proud D．confident

25．The man trembled violently because ______.

A．he caused a terrible traffic accident B．driving the lorry was too difficult for him

C．he was afraid to see the three people D．the furniture was too heavy for him

26．The man said he was a bad man most probably because ______.

A．he made the traffic accident on purpose

B．he parked the big lorry on the pavement

C．he shouldn’t have driven the lorry himself

D．he shouldn’t have caused trouble for the disabled
