    As summer comes near, many children are really happy to forget about school for a few months. The summer vacation is the best time for students. They can go outdoors and have fun. They can go to big cities to go sightseeing, or go to the countryside to enjoy the beauty of nature. However, studies have found that children forget between one and three months' worth of school learning during the summer months. Spelling and math abilities are seriously influenced because of the long vacation, while reading is not really influenced by the time off. The most probable reason for this is that most children usually read at least outside of the classroom, whether newspapers, magazines, books, or video game guides. However, their math and spelling skills only get exercised in the school setting.

    The first summer vacation appeared because the farm children have time off to help work in the fields in the high growing season, but this reason is no longer valid since fewer kids actually work on farms today. Some cities in the United States, such as Los Angeles, have moved to a year-round school calendar, which will bring less influence in their studies. Most cities still use the normal nine and a half-month calendars. To improve skills and to have a good level of preparation, experts suggested trips to museums, summer camps, and visits to libraries to keep kids active and interested the whole summer.

    There are other educational systems that provide vacations while still keeping students' skills in a high level. For example, in Japan students attend classes for seven weeks continuously, followed by two weeks of vacation. This continues to go through all the year. In Italy, students attend classes six days per week, but finish at 1:30 p. m. each day, so that school does not manage their life the way that it does in America.

    Educational experts fear that the three-month summer vacation stops the continuity of learning. Just as students get used to new ways in reading, writing, or critical thinking skills, then the summer vacation comes, they shut down for a long period. When they go back to school after the vacation, they take up to two months to return to their previous level of understanding. And so the debate continues: whether to continue the present vacations or to seek changes.

Amy wanted a mobile phone as her birthday gift, because most of her classmates had one, but she knew her parents couldn't afford it.

One day, when she woke up, she found a new mobile phone on her desk. How excited she was!This was the phone that had appeared in fashion magazines.

She played with the phone on the way to school. And the teacher was already there when she arrived at school. Amy was very embarrassed (尴尬的). She looked at her new mobile phone and whispered (低语), "I didn't want to be late …"

Everything changed with her thought. She went to school on time with her new mobile phone.

She was surprised at that. She turned on the phone and found there was a sentence on the screen, "Every dream will come true. " Since then, she always asks the phone for help. As a result, she has become lazier and lazier. Her teachers and parents were very disappointed with her and her classmates didn't like her any more.

When the term exams came, Amy asked the mobile phone for help again, but things turned bad. She got the lowest mark in the class. She wanted to throw it away, but when she did, the phone would come back into her hand. Amy was so scared (恐惧的)that she cried out, "I don't want the mobile phone any more. "

She woke up to find that the terrible experience had been just a dream.

You want to know about my stay in the UK, right? Well, to tell you the truth, it is really 1 fantastic experience to study here. I came to Woodpark School in London two months ago. Since then, I 2 in this school. I find that school life in the UK is very different from that in China.

In China, the first lesson begins at about eight o' clock and there are 3 lessons a day. The first lesson in the UK begins an hour 4 than that in China. Before the first lesson, students all wait in a special classroom. Then a teacher calls the roll(点名) to check if 5 has arrived on time. After that, students change classrooms. Everybody has his or her own course schedule. They go to different classrooms for different lessons instead of 6 in the same classroom. For example, if one's first lesson is Maths, he or she should go to the classroom for Maths.

Besides languages, Science, art, British students learn many 7 courses such as cooking and gardening at school. The boy in my host family once cooked Chinese soup for me. It really surprised me because it tasted as 8 as what my mum cooked.

How time flies! I have been in the UK 9 two months. I will study here fo another month. I am sure I 10 find out more differences in the future. Believe me!

 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中选出最佳选项

A loud noise wakes Jan up suddenly. She looks at the alarm clock beside the bed. 

It's five o'clock. Then she hears the noise again. It's thunder(雷). Then she hears a different noise. It's the sound of something hitting the window. She gets up and goes to the window. She can see Tom standing outside in the rain. He's shouting at Jan, telling her to come outside. 

Jan gets dressed, puts on her anorak and goes downstairs quietly,trying not to wake Tom's parents. 

"What are you doing, Tom?"

"The storm, " he says. "It's the same storm as Thursday night. Let's go to the tree. Maybe you can go home!"

Jan follows Tom down the road then she remembers something. 

"The time capsule!"

Tom shows her the biscuit tin under his jacket. "I've got it. " And now maybe there's the possibility she can return to the future. Soon they come to the river and then the old building. They run up the path through the trees and arrive at the piece of land with the apple tree. 

"Now what do we do?" asks Jan. 

"I put the time capsule back where I found it and. "

Tom uses his hands to dig a hole by the tree. He buries the time capsule and then stands up. 

Jan suddenly thinks of something. 

"Tom! I wanted to give you something from the time capsule. "

"No. I don't want anything. It's more important for you to go home. "

Jan feels sad that Tom doesn't want something to remember her. But he's right. The important thing is to get home. 

"I'm never going to forget you, Tom. Thanks. You're a real friend. "

"Bye, Jan. Look for me in the future. Promise?"

"I promise. "

Then he turns and runs back to the trees. Jan watches his shadow disappear into the trees. 

(Adapted from The time capsule)
