一、阅读理解
Whether you’ve been in college or you’re looking forward to going to university in the future,
you and your family likely spend some time worrying about the cost of your college education.
It’s no secret that college is one of the biggest investments. However, that will
go to great avail
for years to come. Earning scholarships is a great way to help you. The Financial Aid Office at
Illinois State helps students identify scholarship opportunities every day. Here is some advice
to help you.
Begin in your own backyard
Have you asked your high school or community college financial aid office about scholarships
at your school? Many schools have a list of several scholarships right there. Local awards can
often
be
easier
to
get
as
the
applicant
pools
are
smaller
and
less
competitive.
Check
with
community
organizations,
banks
and
credit
unions,
and
large
employers
who
may
offer
scholarship opportunities in your area.
Find you
r “hook”
While
you’re
searching,
consider
what
makes
you
special
as
a
student.
Your
unique
characteristics can help your scholarship applications stand out. Pay special attention to awards
that mention your best qualities, whether that’s academic achieveme
nt, leadership, community
service, or something less common. Think about why a donor wants to assist you in paying for
your
education.
Most
scholarship
providers
want
to
encourage
a
particular
behavior.
Companies may want to attract future employees. Non-profit organizations like helping those
who support their cause or suffer from the disease they’re working to fight.
Develop a routine
Every scholarship is different in terms of when you can apply, what you need to submit, when
the
winner
is
announced,
and
how
the
money
is
given
to
you.
Typically?
scholarship
applications open in the late fall or early spring for the next school year’s awards, but that also
varies depending on the donor. There isn’t a single application or search engine that allows you
to find and apply for everything. Visit the website of the Office of Student Financial Aid for
lists of scholarship opportunities. Go through the lists to find the ones that match you best and
keep track of when you can apply for them.

A typical school day in the UK starts around 8:30 am. This is often even earlier elsewhere in the
world, with students siting down to their first lesson at 7:30 am in the US. The average teenager
ideally needs eight to nine hours’ sleep each night, but in reality a lot of teenagers strugg
le to
get this much. A lot of the problems happen because our sleep patterns are not fixed, and they
change as we grow.
So a later school start time
（推迟到校时间）
could help to solve this problem, by ensuring to
get their eight plus hours of sleep and react properly to their body's natural rhythms
（规律）
.
There has been a general change over the past 25 years to shorten the school day, This is not at
the cost of teaching time (which has remained constant) but at the cost of natural breaks, which
has led to reduced lunch time and lesson breaks.
Later
start
times
could
help
teens’
grades
and
health.
This
is
mainly
because
it
makes
the
management of children easier
. Managing hundreds of children “playing” requires effective
staffing
（人员配备）
. And there is always the fear that behavior worsens during breaks. So the
theory goes that having them in class and strictly managed must be better.
But this means that students barely have enough time to absorb what they were doing in maths
before suddenly they are forced to study ancient history. And teaching staff also move through
from one class to another, with hardly a rest or time to refocus.
Clearly rethinking the school day could benefit everyone included. Anyway, it could also lead
to
better
achievement
in
teenagers
and
less
of
a
struggle
for
parents
in
the
mornings.
For
teachers, it could also mean a less stressful day all around and what could be better than that?

From the very beginning of school we make books and reading a constant source of possible
failure and public humiliation. When children are little we make them read aloud, before the
teacher
and
other
children,
so
tha
t
we
can
be
sure
they
“know”
all
the
words
they
are
reading. This means that when they don’t know a word, they are going to make a mistake,
right in front of everyone. After having taught fifth-grade classes for four years, I decided to
try at all costs to rid them of their fear and dislike of books, and to get them to read oftener
and more adventurously.
One
day
soon
after
school
had
started,
I
said
to
them,
“Now
I’m
going
to
say
something
about reading that you have probably never heard a teacher say before. I would like you to
精彩文档
实用标准文案
read a lot of
books this year, but I want you to read them only for pleasure. I am not going
to ask you questions to find out whether you understand the books or not. If you understand
enough of a book to enjoy it and want to go on
reading it, that’s enough for me. Also I’m not
going to ask you what words mean. “
The children sat stunned and silent. Was this a teacher talking? One girl, who had just come
to us from a school where she had had a very hard time, looked at me steadily for a long
time after I had finished. Then, still looking at me, she said slowly and seriously, Mr Holt, do
you really mean that?” I said just as seriously, “I mean every word of it.
During the spring she really astonished me. One day, she was reading at her desk, From a
glimpse of the illustrations I thought I knew what the book was. I said to myself, “It can’t be,”
and went to take a closer look. Sure enough, she was reading Moby Dick , in edition with
woodcuts. I said, “Don’t you find parts of it rather heavy going?” She answered, Oh, sure, but
I just skip over those parts and go on to the next good part. “
This
is
exactly
what
reading
should
be
and
in
school
so
seldom
is,
an
exciting,
joyous
adventure. Find something, dive into it, take the good parts, skip the bad parts, get what you
can out of it, go on to something else. How different is our mean-spirited, picky insistence
that every child get every last little scrap of “understanding” that can be dug out of a book.

Subject: My school
Hi, Li Zijun,
Thanks very much for your email. I really enjoyed reading it. I think we have a lot in common.
I wonder if our school life is similar too.
I
go
to
a
big
high
school
in
Sydney
called
Maylands
High
School.
There
are
about
1000
students and 80 teachers. My class has 25 students in it, which is normal for a Year 11 class. In
the junior school there are about 30 students in a class.
In the senior high school we have lots of subjects to choose from, like maths, physics, chemistry,
biology,
history,
German,
law,
geography,
software
design,
graphic
arts
and
media
studies.
(Different schools sometime have different optional subjects.) English is a must for everyone
and we have to do least three other subjects in Year 11 and 12. At the end of Year 12 we sit for a
public exam called the High School Certificate.
As well as school subjects, most of us do other activities at school such as playing a sport,
singing in the choir or playing in the school band. We can also belong to clubs, such as the
drama club, the chess club and the debating society.
We have a lot of homework to do in senior school to prepare for our exam, so unless I have
basketball practice, I usually go straight home and start studying. I arrive home about 4 pm,
make myself a snack and work till 6 pm. Then I help the family to make dinner and we all eat
together. I’m usually back in my room studying by 8 pm. I stop at about 10 o’clock and watch
