Boarding schools started hundreds of years ago in the country. But the earliest boarding schools were set up for white, rich boys only. Now both boys and girls can go to boarding schools from the age of 7 to 18. What to do In the UK, boarding schools have three terms in a school year, with about 13 weeks in each term. Students study and live together. They can't go outside if they are not allowed(同意)to. In some schools, each student has his or her subject plan. Besides the usual classrooms and libraries, the boarding schools have lots of other facilities for their students, including(包括)music rooms, swimming pools, cinemas and theatres. Most boarding schools have a "light out" time. So when it's time to go to bed, all the lights in the bedrooms are turned off. There are house-masters to take care of students all the time, especially after school hours. What to wear Nearly all students at boarding schools wear a school uniform. Boys usually wear a shirt and a tie, and girls wear a white blouse, sometimes also a tie and a skirt. As students get older, the rules become less strict(严格). ____________ In the UK, boarding schools provide(提供)students with delicious food. They can choose to have a full English breakfast or simply bread. They can also choose between a meal with no meat and another meal at lunch and dinner. And there is always self-service for salad(沙拉),other dishes and a dessert. Students can also make themselves something to eat at any time in a kitchen, or drink tea or have a snack between meals. 46.

The underlined word 'facilities' means_______. A.教师 B.设施 C.活动 D.课程 B We've talked about snails(蜗牛)and their slow move. But much of the time snails don't move at all. They are in their shells-sleeping. Hot sun will dry out a snail's body. So at the least sign of hot sun, a snail draws its body into its shell. A snail will die in a heavy rain. So when it rains, a snail does the same thing, too. A snail can sleep for as long as it needs to. It spends all the winter months in its shell, asleep. In spring the snail wakes up. Its body, about three inches long, comes out from the shell. When hungry, the snail looks for food. Its eyes, at the end of the top feelers(触角) are very weak. But its sense of smell is very strong. It helps the snail to find food and the new greens. A snail's mouth is no bigger than the point of a pin(大头针). Yet it has 256,000 teeth! The teeth are very small, and you can't see them. If you put a snail in a hard paper box, it will eat its way out! And if a snail wears out its teeth, it will grow new ones. 49. A snail ______. A. moves more slowly at night B. has thousands of feet C. doesn't move at all D. sleeps much of the time 50. In the sentence "a snail draws its body into its shell", the word "draw" means ______.

A. it feels hungry B. it is put into a paper box C. spring is coming D. it rains heavily C When I was 13 years old, a boy gave me an important gift. It was a smile. It was the early autumn of my first year at a junior high school, and my old school was far away. As a result, no one knew who I was. I was very lonely, and afraid to make friends with anyone. Every time I heard the other students talking and laughing, I felt my heart break. I couldn't talk about anyone with my problems. And I didn't want my parents to worry about me. Then one day, my classmates talked happily with their friends, but I sat at my desk unhappily as usual. At that moment, a boy entered the classroom. I didn't know who he was. He passed me and then turned back. He looked at me, with a smile. (责任编辑:admin) |
