【题目】 Being a successful high school student requires both patience and motivation. Unfortunately, there are often many things that can make your success difficult. Here are some tips which can help you become a successful high school student.

Remember that school is important. It’s important to have fun and have lots of extra-curricular activities, but school study should always be your top priority (优先的事物). 1

Get involved at your school. You don’t have to be a superstar or a cheerleader to do this. 2 These may include current events, such as the basketball game held last Friday or attending school events like dances and variety shows.

3 It’s easy to forget to stay in shape when the workload starts piling up. Doing some sports can help you relax physically and improve your work efficiency. So join a sports team at your school to make you less worried about your schedule and have a healthy body.

Find a club to develop your interests. Not being an athlete is not an excuse for not having something to do after school. 4 Music? Join a band. If you’re not into any of your school’s clubs, advise your principal to start a new one. Most likely he / she will say yes.

Focus on yourself. Don’t compare yourself with others. 5 Every day you should only try to make yourself better, instead of worrying about how the girl sitting in front of you has nicer clothes or is getting better grades, etc. Ten years from now, this won’t matter.

A.Take up a sport to get fit.

B.Try to go out at weekends.

C.All you need to do is stay on top of things.

D.If you’re enthusiastic about art, join the art club.

E.High school is only a competition with yourself.

F.So never take homework, tests, and quizzes lightly!

G.The best thing to do is just be friendly to everyone.

【题目】 United States health officials say an estimated 80,000 people died of influenza (流感) and problems resulting from the flu last winter, making it the worst season since 1977. The director for the U.S.Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reported the number to The Associated Press. Health experts were expecting the winter of 2017-2018 to be a bad year for flu deaths, but not that.

Doctor William Schaffner is an expert on vaccines, at Vanderbilt University in Tennessee. Schaffner noted that 80,000 deaths are nearly twice as much as what health officials once considered a “bad year”.

CDC officials say that between 12,000 and 56,000 Americans die every year from flu-related causes, but they do not have an exact count of how many people die from the flu each year. Influenza is a relatively common disease and not always listed on death records as the official cause of death. While last winter was a bad flu season in the U.S., it was not the worst. The 1918 flu lasted nearly two years. Historians estimate that the disease was to blame for between 500,000 to 700,000 deaths during that period. The exact number is still not known.

One thing that made the 2017-2018 flu season so bad was that the flu virus was strong. Usually the disease kills the very young, the very old or those who are already sick. However, last winter, the flu killed many healthy Americans. Another thing that made the flu season so deadly was that the flu vaccine was not as effective as experts had predicted. Drug makers have made changes to the vaccine. Even though the vaccine did not work well last year, health experts still strongly suggest getting vaccinated.

1What can we learn about influenza in the first paragraph?

A.The winter of 2017-2018 saw the deadliest flu in history.

B.Effective cures should be found to deal with influenza.

C.Health experts had assumed flu would be severer.

D.More people died of influenza than expected in the winter of 2017-2018.

2How many deaths did the health officials expect in a bad year?

A.80,000.B.40,000.

C.60,000.D.20,000.

3Why can't CDC officials give an exact number of deaths from flu?

A.Because flu is always considered as a common disease.

B.Because people usually don't take flu seriously.

C.Because CDC officials are unwilling to count the deaths.

D.Because flu is not always listed on death records.

4What do experts recommend people to do in the last paragraph?

A.Change the vaccine.B.Avoid using vaccine.

C.Get vaccinated.D.Do research on vaccine.

【题目】Tim Richter and his wife, Linda, had taught for over 30 years near Buffalo, New York--he in computers, she in special education. "Teaching means everything to us," Tim would say. In April1998, he learned he would need a heart operation. It was the kind of news that leads to some serious thinking about life's purpose.

Not long after the surgery, Tim saw a brochure describing Imagination Library, a program started by Dolly Parton' s foundation (基金会) that mailed a book every month to children from birth to age five in the singer's home town of Sevier, Tennessee.“I thought, maybe Linda and I could do something like this when we retire," Tim recalls. He placed the brochure on his desk, "as a reminder."

Five years later, now retired and with that brochure still on the desk, Tim clicked on imagination library .com. The program had been opened up to partners who could take advantage of book and postage discounts.

The quality of the books was of great concern to the Richters. Rather than sign up online, they went to Dollywood for a look-see. “We didn’t want to give the children rubbish,” says Linda. The books-reviewed each year by teachers, literacy specialists and Dollywood board members-included classics such as Ezra Jack Keats’s The Snowy Day and newer books like Anna Dewdney’s Llama Llama series.

Satisfied, the couple set up the Richter Family Foundation and got to work. Since 2004, they have shipped more than 12,200 books to preschoolers in their in their area. Megan Williams, a mother of four, is more than appreciative: “This program introduces us to books I’ve never heard of .”

The Richters spend about 400 a month sending books to 200 children. “Some people sit there and wait to die,” says Tim. “Others get as busy as they can in the time they have left.”
