A teenager who is preparing to go to high school has probably heard all kinds of different things about high school freshmen from his parents , fiends , or old brothers and sisters. The change from middle school to high school can seem like a frightening experience for teens going into high school , but it is not always so hard as it may seem. Usually , middle school students can get used to high school life within a few months of their freshman year. A few tips for high school freshmen are as follows.
Grades are important . While it is important for a student to try to do his best in school , the grades that he gets in high school are even more important , since they are what colleges will look like when considering his application (申请)for their school .
Classes . The classes a freshman takes throughout his whole high school can help them a lot when he gets ready to go to college or look for a job . Some special classes allow students to get college credits（学分）while they are still in high school in some countries . Most high school classes will have more homework than middle school classes and this can be a hard adjustment (适应) at first .
Being prepared . Middle school classes might not request students to prepare very much before they attend them . But high school teachers will expect students to get everything ready before the class begins .It is also important for students to study for tests and do all homework that is required during class.
Making good choices. Most high school students have more freedom than middle school students, but what a student does with this freedom is very important to his future life for many years after high school is over. Peer pressure（同龄人压力）, while it can be good sometimes, is often a problem with younger teens .It is important for a teen to make good choices throughout his high school career so that he can be successful later on in his life .

Your mobile phone rings and instead of the usual electronic signals it’s playing your favourite music．A friend sends your favourite song to cheer you up．One day，a record company might forward new records and music videos to your phone．
The mobile business is getting into the music business．For the moment，the interest is in pleasant ring tones，but some companies are hoping to take full advantage of the next generation of mobile phones—all purpose gadgets that blend phone，personal stereo，video player and Internet browser into one．
Finally，record companies might send new records and videos to fans who register their cell phone numbers．
The fans could pass music or songs along to friends—a kind of musical trading card．Unlike Internet tracks，mobile downloads would be easy for record companies to control，said former record industry official Ralph，Simon，who is now chairman of Yourmobile，based in Santa Monic，California．
“If you pass a song along to other phones through a network，each phone can be charged，” said Simon．“It’s like going through toll gate (收费站)．There’s more possibility for copyright control than there is on the Internet．”
Massachusetts-based Converse is offering service in Portugal and the Netherlands that lets people record tunes on their voice mail or send music as presents to friends．Finally，people might be able to sing karaoke and pass them along．The company is sure that people will want to use music to reach out and touch someone．
“A mobile phone is not a listening machine，and you’ll be disappointed if you think you can change it into a radio，” said Ouzel，a creative manager for Converse in Israel．“But if someone sends you a song while you’re on vacation，you appreciate the feeling．”
72．The underlined word “blend” in the second paragraph most probably means _____．

Living and dealing with kids can be a tough job these days，but living and dealing with parents can be even tougher．
If I have learned anything in my 16 years，it is that communication is very important，both when you disagree and when you get along．With any relationship，you need to let the other person know how you are feeling．If you are not able to communicate，your relationship drifts apart．When you are mad at your parents or anyone else，not talking to them doesn’t solve anything．
Communication begins with the concerns of another．It means that you can’t just come home from school，go up to your room and talk to nobody．Even if you just say “Hi” and see how their day is for five minutes，it is better than nothing．
If you look up the word “communication” in the dictionary，it will say “the exchange of ideas，conveyance (传递) of information，correspondence (通信)，means of communication；a letter or message”．To keep a good relationship，you must keep the communication strong．Let people know how you feel，even if it’s just by writing a note．
When dealing with parents，you always have to make them feel good about how they are doing as parents．If you are trying to make them see something as you see it，tell them that you listen to what they have to say，but ask them politely to listen to you．Shouting or walking away only makes the situation worse．
Here is an example．One night，Sophie went to a street party with her friends．She knew she had to be home by midnight after the fireworks．but they didn’t feel she could just ask to go home．That would be rude．After all，they had been nice enough to take her along with them．Needless to say，she was late getting home．Her parents were mad at first，but when Sophie explained why she was late，they weren’t as mad and let the incident go．Communication was the key factor here．If Sophie’s parents had not been willing to listen，Sophie would have been in a lot of trouble．
Communication isn’t a one-way deal．It goes both ways．Just remember：if you get into a situation like Sophie’s，telling the other person how you feel and listening are key factors to communication．
68．The second paragraph mainly talks about ________．
A．the importance of friendship
B．making your feelings known to others
C．the importance of communication
D．the disagreement between generations
69．The key to happy relationship between parents and children is that _______．
A．children should always obey their parents
B．parents play the leading part
C．parents should mind their own business
D．both should make the other know their feelings
70．The example in the passage proves that ________．
A．Sophie’s parents were willing to listen to her
B．Sophie was very polite to her parents
C．Sophie did the right thing when she explained the reason of her being late
D．communication is the key to solving misunderstanding
71．All of the following statements are true EXCEPT ________．
A．if you don’t agree with others，you’d better let them know
B．it is better to say “Hi” to others than to say nothing
C．if you are too busy to communicate，just walk away
D．communication is a two-way deal

BEIJING，Nov．25，2005（Reuters）—China’s home-grown human bird flu vaccine is at least a year away from hitting the market but tests on humans have been approved (批准) by the government，head of the research drug company said on Friday．
Development of the vaccine started last year after bird flu outbreaks in Thailand and Vietnam and animal trials have already been completed，said Yin Wei-dong，managing director of Sinovac Biotech．
“It is not a virus that is spreading from human to human，so we are very optimistic，” Yin told Reuters in an interview．
The deadly H5N1 made its first known jump to humans in Hong Kong in 1997，killing six people．The virus appeared again in late 2003 and is known to have infected 130 people in several parts of Asia，killing 68 of them．
“It is not decided yet when the human trials will begin．We just got approval on November 22 by the State Food and Drug Administration，” Yin said．
Oregon，Nov．26,2005（AP）—The deadly strain of bird flu that appeared in Asia and has already spread to other parts of the world has not affected the Oregon poultry (家禽) industry or consumers，according to Oregon State University researchers．
There are many strains of bird flu that do not usually infect humans．But one strain，called H5N1，has jumped from chickens to humans and is blamed for more than 60 deaths in Asia．
International disease control experts are worried about a worldwide outbreak of bird flu，raising concerns such as whether it is safe to eat poultry．
But Oregon State University researchers say there is no proof that the virus can jump to humans by eating cooked poultry products．
“Consumers needn’t be overly concerned about bird flu，” said Jim Hermes，OSU Extension Service poultry specialist．But he urged consumers to follow standard food safety practices in preparing poultry—including washing hands while preparing food，and proper cooking of poultry meat and eggs．
He noted that a 2003 outbreak of bird virus caused much damage to commercial poultry operations in California but did not get into Oregon because of industry safeguards．
60．Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the first news report?
A．Human trials have already started but not yet successful．

C．The bird flu virus is not one that spreads from human to human．

A．The new outbreak of the bird flu．
B．How the development of the bird flu vaccine is going on．
C．How many people died of bird flu．
D．What measures the government has taken to stop the spreading of bird flu．
62．What does the underlined word “strains” probably mean?
A．signs． B．symbols． C．kinds． D．diseases．
63．What can we know from the second news report?
A．Because of the safety guards，Oregon poultry industry didn’t suffer any loss in
the 2003 outbreak of bird flu．
B．People in Oregon are not concerned about bird flu．
C．People will develop bird flu even if they eat well-cooked poultry products．
D．H5N1 has caused more than 60 deaths worldwide．

第三部分：阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）
阅读下列短文，然后从各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
You’ve no doubt heard people say how much they “need” a holiday，when what they really mean is that they want one．Certainly，people working under pressure feel a very strong desire to escape from work and become less tight during their holidays，and experience a changed environment．
Once people become used to going on holiday，taking holidays becomes a habit．For many people the holiday is one of the last things to be given up，and indeed many workers have chosen to spend some of their last pay when being on holiday．It may give them a “lift” in facing some difficulties in life．
Most of us also enjoy showing off the lovely tans—dark skins we get from a holiday．So many tourists are now able to afford holidays in the sun that tans have become quite common；although we join a tan together with health，it has been fully shown that too much sunshine will result in high danger of skin problems，as well as drying out one’s skin and leading to more lines on your face later in life．
