GAN Xiaolin, 18, only gets half a day ____ school every week since the Hubei student started senior high school.Every day, he takes core (核心的) courses from 7:10 am to 10:30 pm.

Sometimes, Gan feels extremely stressed from the heavy workload.But he hopes that his three

years of hard work toward the college entrance examination will change his life for the __.

Gan is a typical Chinese student, as shown m a recently released survey.The new survey, which was ____ by the China Youth and Children Research Center and other foreign institutions, polled(调整) about 4,000 high school and vocational school students in China, Japan, the United States and South Korea.

The five biggest frustrations listed by all the young people were: an over-busy school life, an empty___ life, dissatisfaction with their appearance, a lack of time for exercise and friends, and no spare money.

Although some of the teenage problems were y-niversai, there were big _ __ between the students when it came to the time they spent on sehoolwork.

For example, Chinese students spent the most time at school and on homework.Nearly 80 percent of them spent at least eight hours a week in school, and 56.7 percent spent two or more hours on their homework.By_, only about 25 percent of US students, 20,5 percent of Japanese students, and 15 percent of Korean students had more than two hours of homework each night.

The responses from the Chinese students also __ significantly from their peers (同龄人)

in the other three countries when asked about their life goals.

Only 16.7 percent of Chinese students said that they didn't ___ much about their future, while the figure for that category was 72.4 percent for US students, 59.1 percent for the Japanese and 58.2 percent for the South Koreans.The _ found that Chinese students were more motivated than the other students to work hard for a better life.

 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的选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Although many Chinese students say that their knowledge of English grammar is good, most would admit that their spoken English is poor. Whenever I speak to a Chinese student, they always say,“My spoken English is poor.”  【小题1】  I would like to suggest that there may be some reasons for their problems with spoken English.
First, they fail to find suitable words to express themselves due to a limited vocabulary.【小题2】However, you can speak with a limited vocabulary, if you choose a positive attitude. Others will follow you as long as you use the words that you know.
 【小题3】 Sometimes they make mistakes when they are speaking because they are shy and nervous. Yet students should remember that their goal should be FLUENCY NOT ACCURACY. Your aim in writing is to be accurate following the rules for grammar and using the right words and spelling them correctly. However, in speaking your aim is fluency. You want to get your message across, to talk to someone in English, as quickly and as well as you can, even though sometimes you may use a wrong word or tense, but it doesn't matter.  【小题4】
The third reason is that not enough attention is paid to listening. You have one mouth but two ears! All that hearing is necessary for you to start speaking.
Fourth, most Chinese students are reactive rather than proactive language learners. Instead of actively seeking out opportunities to improve their spoken English they passively wait for speaking  opportunities to come to them and wonder why their English always remains poor. 【小题5】 

A.The person you are speaking to will understand you and make allowances for any mistakes he hears.
B.They may try to avoid making similar mistakes next time.
C.Obviously the better answer is to expand their vocabulary.
D.If you have this proactive outlook, then you will see English opportunities wherever you go.
E. However, their spoken English does not have to remain“poor”!
F. Second, they are afraid of making mistakes.
G. The second reason lies in the reluctance of using what has just been learned.

第一节:(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。选项中有两项为多余选项。注意请将正确答案写在二卷答题纸相应位置上。

Body language is the quiet, secret and most powerful language of all. It is said that our body movements communicate about 50% of what we really mean while words themselves only express 7%. So, while your mouth is closed, just what is your body saying…

Arms.  71 If you keep your arms to the sides of your body or behind your back, this suggests you are not afraid of taking on whatever comes your way.  72 If someone upsets you, just cross your arms to show you’re unhappy.

Head. When you want to appear confident, keep your head level. If you are monitor in class, you can take on this position when you want your words to be taken seriously.   73 

Legs. Your legs tend to move around a lot more than normal when you are nervous or telling lies. If you are at interviews, try to keep them still.

Posture. A good posture makes you feel better about yourself.  74 This makes breathing more difficult, which in turn can make you feel nervous or uncomfortable.

Mouth. When you are thinking, you often purse (皱拢) your lips. You might also use this position to hold back all angry comment you don’t wish to show.    

  75  .

A.If you are feeling down, you normally don’t sit straight, with your shoulders inwards.

B.If you are pleased, you usually open your eyes wide and people can notice this.

C.Outgoing people generally use their arms with big movements, while quieter people keep them close to their bodies.

D.How you hold your arms shows how open and receptive you are to people you meet.

E.However, it will probably still be noticed, and people will know you’re not pleased.

F.However, to be friendly in listening or speaking, you must move your head a little to one side.

G.Don’t say too much when you’re happy.
