牛津上海（本地版）五四制初中英语九年级上册期末拓展提高卷（含小段音频）

Answer the questions.

Instead of studying abroad during college, more and more Chinese teenagers have chosen to do so as early as in high school, Students from China make up about 42 per-cent of the international students at high schools in the US, according to the latest study by the Institute of International Education. So, what is the main attraction for Chinese high school students to study abroad? What is overseas life like？We interviewed several students. Have a look!

Pan. 15. Moreau Catholic High School in San Francisco, California, US

In the future, I want to go to college in the US. Studying in high school here will help me get used to college life in the future. Also, I want to improve my English

Studying here is not easy. Instead of exams like in China, we have more projects in class. For example, we have to make a PPT about a historical figure and then design a creative item for that person, such as a painting.

Zhao. 15. Unionville High School in Toronto, Canada

For me, experience matters. It's good to have the experience of living in another country. Unlike other international students, my parents accompanied me, which makes my life here much easier.

In Canada. I have more time to develop my interests. I can choose classes I like.

However, taking the entrance examinations to high school and college at home would be great. It's a shame that I have no chance to do that.

Zheng. 14. Walsh Jesuit High School in Cleveland, Ohio. US

I want to try different cultures and education styles. Two years ago, I visited some famous universities in Boston, such as Harvard and MIT. The academic atmosphere(学术氛围) deeply impressed me. Every student seems to spare no effort on academics. I saw students doing morning exercise everywhere and I watched a football game. I found that school life in the US was colorful. So I decided to study in the US.

（1）、How many international students in American high schools are from China？

（2）、Why does Pan choose to study in the high school in the US？

（3）、According to Zhao, what is a shame for her？

（4）、How did Zheng get to know about the studies of the US？

Let's have a look at some different kinds of entertainment (娱乐).

Watching television is one. There are different kinds of programs on TV. Change the channels (频道) and you can see everything on TV, from news, to music, to movies.

Going to the cinema is another. Once a week or twice a month, it is good entertainment, if you like watching movies. You make a plan, go out, watch a movie and eat out! It's more interesting than sitting on the sofa and changing channels.

Surfing the Internet is another! You can talk with friends and play games. You can use it to do work and study. You can find everything you like on the Internet.

Books are still man's best friend. Reading a book is the best way to get calm. A good book will take you to a new life. Now many people don't like this entertainment, but you should try it, if you are bored with others.

    In the past, man did not have to think about the protection of his environment. There were not many people on earth, and natural resources seemed to be unlimited.
    Today, things are different. The world has become too crowded. We are using up our natural resources too quickly, and at the same time we are polluting our environment with dangerous chemicals. If we continue like this, human life on earth will not survive.
    Everyone realizes today that if too many fish are taken from the sea, there will soon be none left. Yet, with modern fishing methods, more and more fish are caught. We know that if too many trees are cut down, forests will disappear and nothing will grow on the land. Yet, we continue to use bigger and more powerful machines to cut down more and more trees.
    We realize that if rivers are polluted with waste products from factories, we will die. However, in most countries waste products are still put into rivers or into the sea, and there are few laws to stop this.
    We know, too, that if the population of the world continues to rise at the present rate, in a few years, there will not be enough food.
What can we do to solve these problems?
    If we eat more vegetables and less meat, we will easily get more food. Land that is used to grow crops can feed five times more people than land where animals are kept.
    The world population will not rise so quickly if people use modern methods of birth control.
Finally, if we educate people to think about the problems, we shall have a better and cleaner living place in the future.

阅读短文，回答下列问题。

While you are at the bookstore, you may be faced with a difficult decision: e-books or paper books? Each one has its advantages and disadvantages. Making the best decision depends on a number of factor (因素).

An e-reader can carry a whole library wherever you go, which is great for travelers or those who always want a choice of reading material Although e-readers are convenient, high levels of screen brightness from an electronic device(电子设备) can cause eye problems. A study in the Information Science Research found that young people preferred e-readers, like smart phones or iPads. That's why most teenagers are short-sighted.

Many book lovers still prefer paper books and value the feeling of them. Paper books are very well designed, they look and smell good, and they carry with them a more human touch. Avid (热衷的)readers prefer reading on paper. Perhaps this is their choice because paper books give them a sense of ownership. It is reported that reading on paper rather than an electronic screen is better for memory and focus. But paper books are heavy and they are not convenient to carry.

Which is your decision, an e-book or a paper book?
