Many Chinese students think American students enjoy more freedom than them at school. But American schools also have their rules. If the students break the rules, they will get
14
punishment, too.
On the first day of a new term, 128 students of Morton High School were sent home for wearing the wrong clothes. There are altogether 1,200 students in the school. Usually only 20 students break the school dress rule every day. So the headmaster Theresa Mayerik said it was the worst new term she had ever seen. At Morton High School, students’ favorite clothing such as baggy(宽大的)trousers, low-hecked shirts and tank tops(紧身短背心)are not allowed in classrooms. Some students think they have the right to choose what to wear, but the headmaster doesn’t think so. “I’d be supportive if half the school was sent home, because 99% will get the message that our school is for education.
“Freedom” does not mean“free of restrictions(约束)”. That is to say there is no total freedom in the world, no matter in the USA or in China.

Driving around New Zealand may be different from driving in your own country. It's necessary for you to know more traffic information if you are traveling to New Zealand. Here are some tips to help you drive safely in New Zealand.
◆Keep Left
In New Zealand, traffic goes on the left side of the road and the driver sits on the right of the car. If you are used to driving on the right, you need to be careful all the time.
◆Give Way to the Right
In general, driving in New Zealand is stress-free. The only major difference is the “give way to the right ” rule. If the other car would hit your driver’s side door, you should give way.
Anyone behind a give-way sign must give way to any cars on roads without the give-way
14
sign. Failure(失败) to give way will result in a $ 150 fine(罚金).
◆School Buses
You must slow to 20km / h when you pass a school bus, even if the school bus is on the right side of the road. Some school buses have a yellow and black board saying “SCHOOL” but no other warning signs. There are a lot of school buses on the roads between 7 a. m. and 9 a. m. and between 3 p. m. and 5 p. m. on any school day, so you need to take care.
◆Seat Belts(安全带)
The seat belts must be worn by the drivers. If you are caught no wearing your seat belt, you will be fined.

第一节 简答题(共5小题,计10分)
Success is so much more than just money or fame. Success is about being able to live a happy and fulfilling life that allows you to be true to who you really are.
If you want to have a successful life, if you want to create a life that makes you feel passionate(有激情的) to be alive, here are the three things you need to focus on.
1. Believe In Yourself
If you don't believe in yourself, how do you expect other people to? If you don't believe that you can have the life you desire(期望), if you don't believe that you can achieve all
14
that you are setting out to achieve, it is going to be very difficult to create a successful life.
When you believe in yourself, it fuels(增加) your creativity(创造力), your ambitions(野心) and your motivation(积极性) to do things.
2. Know Your Intention(追求)
If your intention is simply rooted (基于) in money and fame, chances are never going to truly feel successful. The feeling of success that is given through money and fame can’t belong to you forever.
For a truly successful life, your intention has to be rooted in your purpose, in your passions and in what feels good to you.
When your intention is to serve your purpose, make a change in the world and express your gifts and talents, you will feel true success and satisfaction(满意) no matter what the outcome(结果).
3. Realize You Are Already Successful
Success is all around you and the more you can welcome that into your life, the more you will start to feel it.
Being grateful(感激的) for the tiniest successes in life will also help you to create more and more success.
The truth is that you are already successful and once you realize this, there is nothing can stop you.
61. How many pieces of advice are given about success?
62. Who should you believe in if you want to succeed?
63. What will be fueled(被增加) when you believe in yourself?
64. What will also help you to create more and more success?
14
65. What is the truth at last?

66. Drinking tea bag is most Westerns' favorite way of drinking tea. Do you know how it came about?
67.茶包是由一位美国人在1908年被发明的。 Sullivan was sending out free tea in silk (丝绸) bags for people to try. People put the bags together with the tea leaves into the cup and added hot water. 68.The tea tasted good, and people thought it was easy to clean the cup. They were not happy when Sullivan started sending them loose (散的) tea again.
69. The man realized that he had a new thing in his hands, and he built a machine to pack the tea bags. As tea bags became popular, they were changed from silk to gauze (薄纱) and later paper. In 1952, Lipton Tea made the tea bag even more popular with its invention of the four-sided tea bag. Tea bags were soon a hit in the UK, and today 85% of the tea in the UK is packed in paper bags.
However, many people still prefer loose-leaf tea. This is because some tea companies put not very good tea in their tea bags. 70.但是对于大多数人来说,茶包仍然是最简单的方式。
