I’m 14, a year younger than most of my classmates.
A week ago one of my classmates, Nitin, asked me for help with math homework. We ended up talking about computers and file-sharing(共享文件). As we talked I found that he was more experienced and could teach me about file-sharing and networking. We went to his room and watched a movie about robots that he’d downloaded. The math homework was forgotten.
The next day he came again for homework help “What do you do on weekends?” he asked. The truth is, when I have work to do, I do it. I have no special time to kill with friends. I was embarrassed about this. I expected him to think I was boring and said, “Get a life!” He said, “OK. You’re having trouble getting along with people I can show you. I’m old than you.”
Later, he checked my computer. He even connected me to an Internet chess server(服務器).He was becoming like a big brother.
But when I thought about it, I didn’t really want Nitin’s help” His big-brother idea began to bore me.
“I’ll get you some cool computer programs(程序)”.
“I’ll teach you how to talk to girls.”
He meant what he was saying, but I don’t know why it didn’t make me feel good. Since then he’s hardly talked to me; we seem to have forgotten each other. I don’t think he can “teach” me much, and I don’t think much of him. But I could be wrong·
小題1:What did Mitin help me do?
A.He helped me with my homework.
B.He helped me with math problems.
C.He taught me about file-sharing and networking.
D.He introduced some fiends to me.
小題2:What does the underlined word “kill” in Paragraph 3 mean?
A.殺死B.浪費C.消磨(時間)D.打獵
小題3:Which is NOT the reason why the writer doesn’t want Nitin’s help?
A.He has no special time to kill with friends.
B.He forgot his homework because of playing with him.
C.He thinks his ideas are not useful to him.
D.He has another big brother.
小題4:Can you use a word to describe the writer?
A.Unfriendly.B.Boring.C.Independent.(獨立的)D.Lazy.
小題5:Choose a title for this passage.
A.I Don’t Want a Big Brother!
B.No Time to Kill
C.My Big Brother
D.My Life After School

小題1:C
小題2:C
小題3:D
小題4:C
小題5:A
小題1:C 細節(jié)考查。根據(jù)文章第一段As we talked I found that he was more experienced and could teach me about file-sharing and networking.可知選C。
小題2:C 詞義推測。根據(jù)此詞前面的no special time可以推測出這里kill為消磨(時間),故選C。

You want to know about my staying in America, right? Well, to tell you the truth, it is really an eye-opening experience to study here.
In China, I had English classes five times a week since fifth grade. However, I didn’t know how different textbook English could be from everyday English until I came to Hotchkiss School, Connecticut.
When I first studied English, I was told to say,” I am fine” when people say “How are you?” But in the US, I found that people say, “I am good” or “I’m tired”.
One day, someone greeted me with “What’s up?” It made me confused . I thought for a moment and then smiled because I didn’t know what to say.
Since then, I have discovered more and more differences between Chinese and US cultures.
To my surprise, US girls spend a lot of time in the burning sun to get a tan(曬黑). However, in China, girls try every possible way to get their skin paler, or “whiter”.
I was also surprised by how hardworking US students are.  In China, schoolwork is almost everything, so we study hard and that’s it. But here, a “good” student gets good grades, does a lot for the public and plays sports or music.
The kids here are so talented, I am starting to be sorry that I gave up playing the piano at an early age and that I have never thought about sports.
小題1: What does the word “confused” in the fourth paragraph mean in Chinese ?
A.困惑B.憧憬C.悲痛D.后悔
小題2:A good US student spends his / her time ______ .
A.only in doing homework
B.on studies, sports or music and public work
C.only in working for the public
D.only on sports or music
小題3:Which of the following is NOT true ?
A.The writer is now in US.
B.American girls love to have white skin.
C.US students are talented and hard working.
D.The writer regrets that he gave up playing the piano.
