Question

【題目】 American schools are quite different from those in China. In America, at the beginning of the term, students must select (挑選) their subjects and teachers first.

Selecting is very important for your marks in America. So at the first term, don’t select too many subjects, or you’ll feel very nervous and tired. Then you have to ask for some teaching plans. There is some information about subjects, time arranging, marks and textbooks. At the same time, you must choose the teachers. Different teachers have different teaching methods. If the teacher is called “killer” by the last grade, many students will give up choosing him, because this kind of teacher will leave too much homework, too many exams and give too low grades. There is another thing after you select the subjects and teachers. How to buy textbooks makes each student feel hard. The textbooks in America are very expensive. Each one is about $30–50. In order to save money, many students buy some used textbooks, and some students usually borrow textbooks from the school library.

In class, discussing is very important. The teacher encourages you to ask questions or show your own opinions. They don’t usually ask you to sit well. Instead they allow you to sit or stand anywhere you like.

【解析】

這篇短文給我們介紹了美國的學(xué)校和中國的學(xué)校很多不一樣的地方，如在學(xué)期初，學(xué)生們可以選擇他們要學(xué)習(xí)的科目和老師；美國的教材非常貴，所以很多學(xué)生都是買用過的書，或者從圖書館借書；在美國的課堂上，老師鼓勵學(xué)生表達(dá)自己的觀點，而且學(xué)生們在教室也沒有固定的座位，你可以站在或坐在任何你喜歡的地方。

【1】根據(jù)第一段第二句話In America, at the beginning of the term, students must select (挑選) their subjects and teachers first.可知，在學(xué)期初，學(xué)生們必須先挑選他們的科目和老師。由此可知這里應(yīng)填Subjects and teachers/ Teachers and subjects。

【2】根據(jù)短文第二段第二句話So at the first term, don’t select too many subjects, or you’ll feel very nervous and tired.可知，如果你選擇了太多的科目，你會感到很緊張、很累。因此這里應(yīng)填nervous and tired。

【3】根據(jù)短文第二段中If the teacher is called “killer” by the last grade, many students will give up choosing him, because this kind of teacher will leave too much homework, too many exams and give too low grades.可知，如果這個老師被稱作“殺手”，很多學(xué)生就不會選擇他。由此可知這里應(yīng)填killer。

【4】根據(jù)短文第二段中The textbooks in America are very expensive. Each one is about $30–50. In order to save money, many students buy some used textbooks可知，很多學(xué)生買用過的書是為了省錢，因為美國的教材很貴。由此可知應(yīng)填to save money。

【5】根據(jù)短文第三段中They don’t usually ask you to sit well. Instead they allow you to sit or stand anywhere you like.可知，在課堂上，老師通常不會讓你坐好，你可以坐在或站在你喜歡的任何地方�？涨�instead of意為“代替…”，后跟名詞或者動名詞形式，因此這里應(yīng)填sitting well。
