High school seems bigger. There are  36  kids and it’s a totally new environment. It could be a  37  time for new students,  38  ,in fact, it isn’t really that bad.

The first day of course is always terrifying, but, then again, the first day of middle school was probably the  39  .Of course you might get lost during the first few days  40  your classes, but after a while what seems like a large school really isn’t.

One thing that’s really cool about high school is that there are so many more classes that you can  41  .For example, if you like  42  ,there are many art classes. At the same time, there are  43  classes, which you can’t take in middle school  44  photography and psychology(心理学).There are many new things in high school that make it much more  45  .

In high school, you’re able to join more clubs, play more sports, and take part in more  46  ,and at the same time make new friends with kids with the same  47  as you. Also, these activities can give you a  48  to learn something that you might not have had the opportunity to learn in  49  .

High school is different  50  everyone, but there’s one thing that’s  51  .You’re going to have just as much fun here as you  52  before. But having fun isn’t enough though! You’re  53  so you have to be more responsible. Everything changes when you get  54  ,but the changes aren’t that bad. You  55  worry too much about growing up.

A man who served 11 years in prison after being wrongly convicted of murdering his wife was officially cleared yesterday, walking free from Jingshan County People's Court—the same body that sentenced him to a 15?year jail term in 1998—as over 2000 local residents cheered.

“Police and other law enforcers made the errors,”39?year?old She Xianglin told China Daily, “I believe the law will punish them and give me a just result.”?

The original conviction came based on a confession which She said was extracted under police torture and the misidentification of a still-unknown woman's body.?

“The provincial Hubei government has sent a team of police, procurators and high people's court officials to investigate the case,” a spokesperson for the Jingmen government, which administrates Jingshan County, said yesterday.?

The miscarriage of justice only came to light when Shen's wife, Zhang Zaiyu, resurfaced late last month after being thought missing for 11 years.?

This was despite at least five letters from Zhang to her brother over the last two years, which he said he didn't report to police because he thought they were a hoax.?

Zhang disappeared in January 1994 from Yanmenkou Township, and 3 months later a body was found in a pond that her relatives positively identified.?

Local police arrested Shen for murder in April 1994,although questions had been raised about discrepancies between the features and clothes of the body and Zhang. Confirmation through DNA testing had not been attempted.?

  Zhang Chengmao, Shen's lawyer, said yesterday he would seek State compensation “but we have not reached a figure yet”.?

When asked about compensation, Shen said, “My mother, who died from the stress of continually appealing, cannot be bought. Eleven years of freedom cannot be bought. Schooling of my daughter that was stopped because of poverty cannot be bought.”?

As for his wife, the man said he did not hate her at all. “If she had not reappeared, maybe I would have been wronged for life,” he said.?

He also said he did not plan to sue Zhang for bigamy, though she had remarried in Shandong Province without divorcing him.?

Why did She Xianglin served 11 years in prison?

A. Because She Xianglin was convicted of murdering his wife.?

B. Because the Police and other law enforcers made the errors.?

C. Because through DNA testing the dead woman was his wife.?

D. Because her wife was missing.

Which of the following is NOT true??

A. The miscarriage of justice only came to light when Shen's wife reappeared.?

B. The man said he did not hate her at all.?

C. Zhang Zaiyu wrote at least five letters to her brother over the last two years to hoax him.?

D. She Xianglin's mother died from the stress of continually appealing.

We can infer from the passage _______.?

A. She Xianglin will get State compensation?

B. She Xianglin's daughter dropped out of school because of poverty?

C. She Xianglin stayed in prison for 11 years?

D. who murdered the woman is known to all

Phonetics Professor Henry Higgins first meets Eliza Doolittle, a flower girl, near the Royal Opera House, late on a cold March night. Eliza is selling flowers. Higgins is out on his endless search for new dialects of London’s speech.
     Higgins makes a bet with Colonel Pickering that he can turn the cockney(伦敦腔)flower girl, Eliza Doolittle, into a lady within three months. To do so, he must change her thick London accent, teach her to speak proper English and teach her manners.
     Higgins looks upon her not as a person but as raw material for his experiment. He trains Eliza for weeks. When no progress is made, Eliza, loses her courage, Higgins loses his temper, and even Pickering’s patience wears thin.
     At last she improves. In order to test Eliza, he decides to introduce her to his mother’s guests at the Ascot Race Meeting. Eliza proves to be a success. Pickering and Higgins are very proud, and neither of them takes into account Eliza’s personal accomplishments in the matter. Eliza has absorbed the sophistication(世故)and the courage to see the unfairness of  this, and she blows up, demanding recognition. The Professor is astonished. It is as though a statue has come to life and spoken. Eliza rushes out of the house angrily.
     Higgins discovers that he is hurt because Eliza leaves him. He meets her at his mother’s flat where she has gone for advice. They argue violently and she storms out. It is only a moment after her departure that Higgins finally wakes up to the fact that Eliza has become an entirely independent and admirable human being.
