While applying to college may seem easy, getting in can be tough! When you apply for college, you will have to be honest with yourself and do a bit of research to find the right fit. Here are three steps to take when applying to colleges for the best chances at getting into the best college for you.
Step l: Making A List Of Colleges To Apply To
With over 6,000 colleges in the United States, the first step in applying to college is to do some research and make a college list .This process will be different for everyone. The number of colleges you apply to can vary, from applying  to 1 school (not recommended) to 30 schools (not recommended),each applicant can choose how many colleges they apply to. Many limit the number because applications are accompanied by a fee.
Step2: Splitting The List Into Target, Reach and Safety Schools
In general, students will want to apply to three types of schools: Target, Reach and Safety schools. It is up to you how many applications you send, but a good mix would be more target than reach, and at least one safety. You will need to take your list, and now decide which are your top picks, which are attainable for you academically, which are affordable for you only with aid, and refine your broad list into a group of schools that gives you the best chance for success. Talk to an admissions counselor at your high school if you have questions about this.
Step 3: Completing and Sending Applications to Colleges
Once your list is complete you are ready to apply to college by completing and sending in applications! College applications take time to complete —you have to write essays, ask for recommendations and get test scores sent to schools—so stay organized！ All colleges will require these types of application materials, so start thinking about these items well before October or December. Once you complete and send them, then you have successfully applied to college.
【小題1】It can be learned from the first paragraph that_____________.

A．you should be cautious to pick up the right college
B．you don't have to think twice before applying to college

A．One should clarify the list according to one's abilities.
B．Refer to admissions counselor at high school if necessary.
C．One doesn't have to send his test scores to the intended college.
D．Teachers' recommendations are included in application materials.
【小題4】We can conclude from the text that____________.
A．each applicant has the right to apply to any colleges for free
B．the more college one chooses, the more successful he will be
C．a(chǎn)pplicants should send required materials before the deadline
D．safety schools are those that don't have so many requirements

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：2011屆浙江省杭州市長(zhǎng)河高中高三二模考試英語(yǔ)卷 題型：閱讀理解

Walking around the corner and into the hall at three in the morning, lost in thought and dragging a mop bucket, I raised my eyes to the front counter in indifference. A man, looking to be in his mid 40’s, stood in a pink dress. A wide-edged hat stuck out over his massive frame resembling an umbrella that was a little too shabby and worn-out, making him look like a woman. The shock at seeing such a strong proud man in a cheap disgusting dress broke my heart, as well as frightened me.
Dropping my mop on the floor in surprise and picking up my face that had temporarily fallen off, I confidently walked over to the desk.
“I’m sorry,” I began to say but was confused on whether sir or madam was appropriate. “Can I help you?”
“I need a room,” he said in a gruff (粗啞的) powerful voice.
“Sure thing,” I said bringing up the registry. “Can I get your last name?”
“Hurgan,” he said briefly.
“And your first name?”
“Amanda.”
Suddenly I had to direct all of my concentration on holding back a smile. A ten second pause of silence passed while I tried to stay calm.
“Okay,” I said getting back to the job, “can I get your phone number, Amanda?”
All of the information was acquired and stored and Amanda received her room key for the night. All was well as I returned to the neglected mop bucket. Suddenly a low throaty cough drew me out of my temporary mental disorder. Looking over at the desk where Amanda stood touching her thick biceps (二頭肌) I once again dropped the mop in shock.
“I’m sorry about that,” I said coming around to the desk. Amanda stared with unease twisting her sleeve with her right index finger.
“I have a cat,” she said in a low voice.
“I’m sorry you what?” I asked leaning in closer. She drew back a bit as if I was some kind of threat.
“I have a cat.”
Looking up into her tall frame, I replied, “That’s fine. We just need to add an extra $10 fee.” She handed me her credit card once again. I swiped it, returned it, and grabbed the printing receipt.
“You just need to sign here,” I said handing over the pen. She hesitantly grabbed it from my hand and signed. As she began to return it, my hand came a bit too close to connecting with hers. Scared and possibly a little disgusted she dropped the pen, causing it to bounce off the counter and onto the floor.
“Sorry,” she said, looking down. “I have to go get my cat.”
While Amanda was getting her cat, an unpleasant thought was circling around my head. Here I was just doing my job and this, this WO-MAN was acting as if I was the monster! He was wearing a pink dress! And I was the monster? Was he even still a man? The sliding doors opened and in came Amanda passing the front desk without even giving me a polite nod. 
【小題1】 The story most probably happened at a ________.

A．pubB．hotelC．hospitalD．shop
【小題2】We can conclude that the author’s attitude towards the man is _______.
A．objectiveB．indifferentC．criticalD．considerate
【小題3】 Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?
A．The author was on the edge of smiling when he heard the man’s first name.
B．When the man checked in, he tipped the author $10.
C．After signing, the man grasped the author’s hand and thanked him.
D．The man gave the author a friendly nod while going toward his room.
【小題4】 What might be the best title of this passage?
A．A disgusting catB．A considerate waiter
C．A fierce monsterD．A strange-looking WO-MAN

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：2012-2013學(xué)年廣東省廣州六中高一上學(xué)期期末考試英語(yǔ)試卷（帶解析） 題型：閱讀理解

"Beating is a sign of affection, cursing (罵）is a sign of love."
Many may not expect to hear the words of the old Chinese saying in these modern times—with parents wealthier and better educated than they have ever been-but experts say they still ring true.
Today, it seems, Chinese parents are more likely to send their children to pre-college military academies in the United States in the hope that some tough love will pave the way tosuccess.
"Good education doesn't mean letting your child enjoy privileges, especially our boys," said Song Wenming, an entrepreneur(企業(yè)家）in Jinhua, East China's Zhejiang province." They should be raised in tough conditions to know what to fight for in the future."
In August, Song sent his 17-year-old son to Valley Forge Military Academy (VFMA) in Pennsylvania. And he is far from alone, even though it takes a lot of money - around $48,000 per year —to send a child to a strict military school.
Statistics shows that an increasing number of Chinese students have been registering with such academies.
A few years ago, there were no Chinese students at Valley Forge. Today, there are 28."All of the Chinese students at Valley Forge came from wealthy families, some of them were spoiled," said Jennifer Myers, director of marketing and communications at the school.
Song's only son, Song Siyu, had a rocky start during his first six weeks at the school. The teenager said he went to the school voluntarily but did not expect it to be as difficult.
Now, three months later, he has perfected the art of taking a bath in 35 seconds, finishing a meal without looking at his food, and making his bed with precision. He can even take criticism, no matter how unreasonable.
"The training is hard but I know it is good for self-development of individuals," said Song Siyu.'The endless training and scolding are just ways to build up our character, they are not personal."
But his enthusiasm is not universal. Ten of the 13 Chinese students who joined the academy this year have transferred to other schools.
But for those who stick with it, there is a reward for all the hard work.
【小題1】From the second paragraph, we can know the old Chinese saying _____.

A．is out of date in modern times.
B．is disagreed by rich parents.
C．is still worth trusting
D．is deeply believed by better educated parent.
【小題2】The underlined sentence means that _____
A．Song sent his only son to military school, so he feels lonely.
B．Song is the only one who sends his child t to military school.
C．There are other people sending their children to military school besides Song.
D．The fee of the military school is so high that only Song can afford it.
【小題3】Song Siyu got some achievements in the military school except _____.
A．taking a bath in a short time
B．having his meal with his eyes closed
C．taking unreasonable criticism
D．improving his character
【小題4】How many Chinese students are there at Valley Forge before this year?
A．10B．13C．15D．25
【小題5】Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?
A.   It's likely that more and more Chinese students will attend VFMA.
B.    Most Chinese parents approve of educating their children by beating and cursing nowadays.
C.   Song Siyu had no difficulty in adjusting to the life at VFMA.
D.   Most Chinese students support the way of education at VFMA.

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：2016屆浙江省寧波市高一上學(xué)期期末英語(yǔ)試卷（解析版） 題型：閱讀理解

Jerry Morris died on 28 October 2009. He was 99 years old. You have probably never heard of him. He was a professor of public health. More than 50 years ago he produced one of the most famous epidemiological (流行病學(xué)) papers of the 20th century.

  His study showed that bus conductors were much less likely to die of heart disease than bus drivers. Why? Because the conductors spent their working day walking. It seems obvious now but in the middle of the last century doctors were puzzled by the rising numbers of people who got heart diseases. Jerry Morris found one of the main causes: a sedentary (久坐不動(dòng)的) lifestyle. He started exercising for a few minutes each day and lived until his 100th year.

  If you wish to protect your heart, you have to do more than wander in the garden. The exercise needs to be reasonable. Jogging is not for everyone and a round trip to the gym takes a couple of hours, plus the monthly membership fee is only good value if you visit regularly. The answer is simple: walk.

  A half-hour purposeful walk five times a week will lower your risk of heart disease, diabetes and strokes. Older people sometimes feel they have left it too late. But it is never too late to start and there are no upper age limits. Start gently. Take your time: a 15-minute flat walk in the nearest park, four or five times a week. Within a month or so, you are already beginning to protect your heart. Build the walks up. When you can comfortably walk for half an hour in the park, go further: try following rivers and canals.

  Regular walkers have their own natural gymnasium. There is no membership fee, just some of the finest scenery in the world. Great Britain is the walker’s gym. When you have followed the rivers and canals, and are enjoying walking for a couple of hours, head for the coast. Once again, build it up slowly. When you are comfortable with long coastal walks, you can think of our national parks.

1.Jerry Morris is mentioned in the first paragraph mainly to __________.

A. make his epidemiological message known to the public

B. praise his research into ways of improving public health

C. introduce the topic of doing exercise and keeping healthy

D. give an example of a person who lives a healthy and long life

2.We can learn from the passage that __________.

A. bus conductors are more likely to die of heart disease than bus drivers.

B. doctors in the 1950s knew why heart diseases kept happening to people.

C. walking is better than doing sports in a gym because it saves time and money. 

D. British people love walking because they have free gymnasium with finest scenery.

3.What suggestion does the writer give about walking?

A. Parks are the best place for walking.

B. Starters should not push themselves too hard.

C. A two-quarter walk a day is suitable for starters.

D. People of old age might not be fit enough to start walking.

4.What might be the best title for this passage?

A. Long Life Comes from Walking

B. Walking Helps Cure Heart Disease

C. A Walk a Day Keeps the Doctors away

D. An Hour’s Walk in Nature is Worth Two in the Gym
