AIn 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.1. According to the text, most students feel ________ when entering the high school.A. excitedB. nervousC. lonelyD. disappointed2. Which of the following is TRUE about the school clubs?A. There are fewer students from higher grades in the school clubs.B. The school clubs in high school only welcome sports fans.C. Summer activities begin before school starts.D. The school office can help new students join school clubs.3. When do many schools take students to visit their new high school?A. Before the eighth grade year starts.B. Right after the high school year starts.C. At the end of their eighth grade yearD. At the beginning of the new term in the high school.4. What is the purpose of this text?A. To tell the new students how to learn in high schoolB. To introduce new schoolsC. To give the teachers some adviceD. To give advice to new high school studentsBThere is an English saying: "Laughter is best medicine." Until recently, few people took the saying seriously. Now, however, doctors have begun to look into laughter and the effects it has on the human body. They have found that laughter really can improve people's health.Tests were carried out to study the effects of laughter on the body. People watched funny films while doctors checked their heart, blood pressure, breathing and muscles. It was found that laughter has similar effects to physical exercises. It increases blood pressure, the heart beating and breathing. It also works several groups of muscles in the face, the stomach, and even the feet. If laughter exercises the body, it must be beneficial.Other tests have shown that laughter appears to be able to reduce the effect of pain on the body. In one experiment doctors produced pain in groups of students who listened to different radio programs. The group that tolerated(忍受) the pain for the longest time was the groups which listened to a funny program. The reason why laughter can reduce pain seems to be that it helps to produce a kind of chemicals in the brain which diminish both stress and pain.As a result of these discoveries, some doctors in the United States now hold laughter clinics, in which they help to improve their patients' condition byencouraging them to laugh. They have found that even if their patients do not really feel like laughing, making them smile is enough to produce beneficial(有益的)effects similar to those who are caused by laughter.5. The main idea of the passage is ____________.A. laughter and physical exercises have similar effects.B. smile can produce the same effects as laughterC. pain can be reduced by laughterD. laughter is best medicine6. The underlined word "diminish" is similar to____________.A. testB. stopC. reduceD. increase7. Doctors hold laughter clinics _____________.A. to give better condition to their patientsB. in order to improve patients' healthC. to make patients smile all the timeD. to prove smile and laughter have the same effect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。

Studies show that teens who have an active relationship with their fathers are less likely(可能的) to involve themselves in dangerous behaviors and more likely to succeed in school and develop higher self-worth, because their fathers go beyond social expectations to devote attention to them.Peer(同龄人)pressure has always been a big part of the teens’ experience. Even the best father can’t completely protect their kids from the growing influence of their peer group. However, studies show that teenagers whose fathers focus on their lives are more likely to resist (抵抗)the more bad effects of peer pressure, taking drugs, for example.Teens may not like to admit it, but they are watching their parents closely and often follow their example. An interesting finding explains just how important parents are, especially Dad. Swiss researchers discovered that if Dad attends church, even though Mom doesn't, 44 percent of the kids are still more likely to keep going to church as adults. But if Mom goes regularly and Dad never shows up, only 2 percent of the kids continue to attend.Teenagers face a lot of difficult choices, especially in their later teens. Fathers don’t get to make those choices for them, but they can be influenced. For example, teenagers can learn a lot from their parents' concern on what to do when they finish high school. Should they go directly to college and, if so, where? Should theyconsider going to trade schools, joining the army or looking for a job? A father's guidance brings a long-term perspective that teens often lack to these important decisions.1.Teen agers without father’s focus are more likely to __________.A.have higher self-worthB.experience some dangerous thingsC.become the best students in schoolD.resist all bad effects of peer pressure2.What does the third paragraph tell us?A.More teenagers pay no attention to their parentsB.Teenagers often treat their fathers as role modelsC.Teenagers never attend church with their mothersD.Fewer teenagers like to attend church with their fathers3.Which can replace the underlined word "perspective" in the last paragraph?A.point of viewB.jobC.schoolD.lots of concern4.What can we learn from the text?A.Fathers should make choices for teenagers directlyB.Teenagers care less about what their parents doC.Mothers have no effect on their children’s lifeD.Teenagers are greatly influenced by their fathers三、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。
