       37  , for many high school students, these great activities may be just a/an  38  ．With plenty of work to do, they spend all their hours indoors,  39  for a high mark in their exams．

       40  , study is one of the most important things for teenagers． 41  life is definitely much more than that．

       Sometimes we may be so  42  with studying that we forget how to make  43  wonderful．In doing so, we lose the  44  purpose of life—to be a valuable and happy person．

       To  45  just how great it is to be alive, we have to  46  our books and pens and look around us．Students, take some exercise to  47  your health, take with your parents and friends for understanding and walk around outside your house to refresh your body and mind．

第二部分  閱讀理解（共25小題。第一節(jié)每小題2分，第二節(jié)每小題1分；滿(mǎn)分45分）

第一節(jié)  閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)（A、B、C和D）中，選出最佳選項(xiàng)，并在答題卡上將該項(xiàng)涂黑。

A

   During my high school years, the most important thing was what I was wearing to the Friday night dance and who I was taking．Although college was talked about, it was the least of my worries．

When I was graduating eighth grade and starting high school, my elder brother was graduating twelfth grade and going onto college．For my graduation, he gave me a card in which he wrote, “Enjoy your four years…they go by fast．” I remember not believing him then, but looking back…h(huán)e was right．Those four years shaped who I was as a person, pushed me to my limit and encouraged me to become an adult．

However, I was so completely absorbed in my junior and senior years of high school, that when someone spoke of college I brushed it off．I wasn't ready to leave my comfort zone of having all of my closest friends together and knowing what every single day was going to be like．Studying was something I did only AFTER I nailed my half-time dance performance．I knew my parents wanted me to go to college, so I told them I would go to community college (社區(qū)學(xué)院) and I didn’t worry about my SAT（美國(guó)大學(xué)入學(xué)考試）scores．

When my senior year passed and everyone graduated and went off to their own college, I started to wish I had done the same．My friends were living away, meeting new people, discovering new places, and I was living at home and driving to and from class every day．It seemed exactly like high school．I hated it! I thought college was supposed to be different! Why didn’t I take more time to research colleges and do the same? I ended up loving college and wishing I had four years to enjoy the campus atmosphere instead of two．

My advice to anyone thinking about attending college is to think about it very seriously and look into all of your choices well ahead of time．Now I have graduate and I am working full time and I would do anything to go back to my high school days for a second chance!

A．drove to and from class every day．

B．buried himself in his study all the time．

C．enjoyed talking about future college life．

D．lived in the school except on holidays．

       A．He wished the author to have more dance．

    B．He advised the author to value the years．
