There is usually a very broad range of extracurricular activities available. Most schools, for<br /> instance, publish their own student newspapers, and some have their own radio stations. Almost all<br /> have student orchestras, bands, and choirs.<br /> Many different sports are also available and most schools share their facilities- swimming pools,<br /> tennis courts, tracks, and stadiums with the public. Often the students themselves organize and support<br /> school activities and raise money through car washes, baby-sitting, or by mowing lawns. Parents and<br /> local business often also help a group that, for example, has a chance to go to a state music<br /> competition, to compete in some sports championship, or take a camping trip. Such activities not only<br /> give pupils a chance to be together outside of normal classes, they also help develop a feeling of<br /> “school spirit” among the students and in the community .<br /> 4<br /> <br /> Question 36: Which activities are NOT helped by parents and local business ?<br /> A. performing at a state music competition.<br /> <br /> B. playing in a sport competition.<br /> <br /> C. working in a TV station.<br /> <br /> D. having a camping trip.<br /> <br /> Question 37: What do the students do to support school activities ?<br /> A. sell newspapers<br /> <br /> B. look after a baby<br /> <br /> C. repair cars<br /> <br /> D. sell lawn movers<br /> <br /> Question 38: How many hours a day do the children stay at school?<br /> A. eight<br /> <br /> B. six<br /> <br /> C. five<br /> <br /> D. four<br /> <br /> Question 39: The best title for the passage could be ______<br /> A.

But<br /> sometimes it is important to wear the right thing.<br /> Many British people don't think about clothes very much. They just like to be<br /> comfortable. When they go out to enjoy themselves, they can wear almost anything. At<br /> theatres, cinemas and concerts you can put on what you like from elegant suits and dresses to<br /> jeans and sweaters. Anything goes, as long as you look clean and tidy.<br /> But in Britain, as well as the US, men in offices usually wear suits and ties, and women<br /> wear dresses or skirts (not trousers). Doctors, lawyers and business people wear quite formal<br /> clothes. And in some hotels and restaurants men have to wear ties and women wear smart<br /> dresses.<br /> In many years, Americans are more relaxed than British people, but they are more<br /> careful with their clothes. At home, or on holiday, most Americans wear informal or sporty<br /> clothes. But when they go out in the evening, they like to look elegant. In good hotels and<br /> restaurants, men have to wear jackets and ties, and women wear pretty clothes and smart<br /> 5<br /> <br />
