It's school time again! You're probably feeling excited and maybe a little sad that summer vacation is over.Some kids feel nervous or a little scared on the first day of school because of all the new things: new teachers, new friends, and even a new school.Luckily, these “new” worries only stick around for a little while.Let's find out more about going to a new school.
Most teachers kick_off the new school year by introducing themselves and talking about all the things you'll be doing that year.Some teachers give students a chance to tell something about themselves to the rest of the class, too.When teachers do the talking on the first day, they often go over classroom rules and school rules so you'll know what's allowed and what's not.Please pay close attention.
You might already know a lot of people in your class on the first day, but it's a great day to make a new friend, so try to say hello to kids you know and new ones that you don't.Make the first move and you'll be glad about what you did, and so will your new friends!
Seeing friends you haven't seen in a while can make the first day a good one.You can make the day feel special by wearing clothes that you really like.Maybe you got a great T-shirt on one of your vacations, or a pair of sneakers(运动鞋).It also can make you feel good to be prepared and have all the things you need, such as pencils, folders, and whatever else you'll be needing.But make sure that you pack them the night before in case you don't have time in the morning.
1.The underlined phrase “kick off ” in the second paragraph probably means “________”.
A.start C.find 答案:A

B.study D.teach

A.introduce yourself
B.learn about the school rules C.make new friends D.go over your new lessons 答案:D

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 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-necked shirts and tanktops(坎肩) 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 were 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 US or in China.
5.Many Chinese students think that ________. A.American students are very free at school B.American students are not so clever as them
B.lucky D.exhausted
