By then, everyone already had had their own friends, and no one wanted to talk to a new girl. To make things worse, they put me in “Section L”. I found out later that everyone called Section L “Loserville”. It was sort of an open secret that it was the section for troublemakers and not－so－smart kids. When I found out, I wanted to scream. I had always been a good student and had amazing friends, and now everyone thought I was a loser!I did text my friends in Illinois almost every night, especially my best friend, Ana. At first my friends wanted to hear all about it. But then some stopped texting back once I said something about how miserable I was. One night when I was texting with Ana, I complained about another friend who had just done that.Ana's texts came really fast for the next few minutes and they surprised me. She said that she was tired of hearing about how bad everything was in New Jersey, too. She said she did not want to hurt my feelings but that I needed to stop feeling so sorry for myself all the time, I had to try to make things better.The next day, I thought a lot about what Ana had said. She was right!I wish I could say that everything changed overnight after that, but it didn't. I was still stuck in “Loserville”， and some people were still mean to me, even though I tried to just stay out of their way.But what did change was me—I stopped feeling so sorry for myself and did something about making friends. I signed up to make sets for the school play. I met a lot of new people there, and suddenly I had friends to say hi to in the halls!I still miss Illinois sometimes, but life in New Jersey isn't so hard anymore. Even though I couldn't change my situation, I could change my attitude—and that made all the difference.篇章导读：本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者在上七年级的时候，搬到了新泽西。在那里的学校，作者受到了不公平对待的经历。4．“Loserville” is a section for ________.A．failures  B．good studentsC．class secrets  D．newcomers答案：A'推理判断题。根据第一段第五句和第七句可推断出“Loserville”是一个失败者待着的地方，故选A。5．The writer complained all the time in the new environment because ________.A．Ana didn't text back to herB．her friends hurt her feelingsC．she was unfairly treatedD．she was a good student答案：C'细节理解题。根据第二段第三句可知作者在新环境中一直抱怨，因为她受到不公平的待遇，故选C。6．What made a difference in changing the situation?A．She went back to Illinois.B．She ended friendship with Ana.C．She fought back with her classmates.D．She began to make friends with others.答案：D' 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段第一句可知她开始和别人交朋友，就此改变了情况，故选D。7．The best title for the passage can be ________.A．Lasting FriendshipB．An Incidence at SchoolC．Say Goodbye to “Loserville”D．Unhappiness in “Loserville”答案：C'标题判断题。本篇文章主要讲了作者在上七年级的时候，搬到了新泽西。在那里的学校，作者被放到了代表“失败者”的“Loserville”区，受到了不公平地对待，作者尽自己最大的努力，想要告别 “Loserville”。所以这篇文章最好的题目是《和“Loserville”说再见》，故选C。CDo you still remember what happened when you went to school on the first day? I still remember my interesting first day of school. On that day, I hurried to my science class in the morning and found a seat in the back. I waited there for 15 minutes before the bell rang. The science teacher told us about some class rules. No one talked to me, nor did I talk to anyone else. I was one of those very shy girls. After the science class, I had an English class. I thought it would be boring but it turned out to be very funny. When the classes of the morning ended I went to lunch. I sat outside the dining room with no one to talk to and no food because I was too nervous to join the lunch line. I kept looking around hoping to see someone I knew but I never saw anyone. Lunch ended and I went to have my art class. I was the first one there and not even my teacher was there yet. So I sat at my desk and started drawing some pictures. I didn't notice the rest of the class walking in or the girl that was standing behind me till I was surprised by the voice，“So what are you drawing？” It was a girl who had really long hair. She ended up being my best friend and one of the kindest and liveliest girls I know.In the next class meeting, the teacher asked us to talk about the past holiday.

These are a few of the concepts that make Space of Mind School unique.Located in a home built in 1896 in Florida, US, the program serves students in grades 2 through 12 and will accept kindergarten students next year. It also offers an afterschool program for students who attend traditional schools, as well as evening programs for adults and educators and weekend events for families.There is a different atmosphere from that of a traditional school building. Tables and brightly colored walls are white boards. In the science room, students are studying climate changes at a weather station, while in the music room, a student is solving an equation (等式) with his academic coach while he connects music theory and maths.The daily schedule at the school also stands out. “We don't assign boring or exhausting homework，” said Space of Mind founder and CEO Ali Kaufman. “Instead of homework, we ask that they go home and take a video of themselves applying a lesson they learned or cooking a meal for their family that they learned how to make at school.”For lunch, instead of traditional cafeteria dishes such as pizza, the school offers organic meals made out of products from local gardens and farms. “Our students also run a business at the Delray Beach Green Market on Saturdays so they can understand sustainable living practices and how to run a business，” Kaufman said.“We are also the first school program in Florida to start and end each day with 15 minutes of meditation (冥想)，” Kaufman said. “The positive results we have been seeing in the students from meditation are amazing. We are really about infusing social, emotional and creative skills with academic and life skills.”篇章导读：本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了Space of Mind School(心灵空间学校)的一些独特教学理念和做法。 12．Space of Mind School ________.A．assigns no homeworkB．urges students to use what they learnC．teaches students to earn money in classD．focuses on knowledge learning答案：B　细节理解题。根据第一段第一句中的“applying learned lessons to real life is more important than homework”可知，Space of Mind School推崇自我意识。他们鼓励学生在黑板上演算来解决数学问题，同时将所学的知识应用到实际生活中。故选B。13．What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A．Yoga enjoys great popularity in US.B．The practice of meditation is amazing.C．The meditation session lasts 15 minutes daily.D．The students benefit from meditation.答案：D　推理判断题。根据第六段倒数第二句可知，学生从冥想中获得的积极作用是惊人的。因此，冥想是有好处的，故选D。14．The underlined word “infusing” in the last paragraph probably means ________.A．emphasizing  B．checkingC．developing  D．helping答案：C　词义猜测题。根据最后一段内容，可以推断出infusing意为“灌输，培养，激发”，故选C。15．What is the text mainly about?A．What makes Space of Mind School outstanding.B．Why Space of Mind School is popular in US.C．How the after­class programs of Space of Mind School are organized.D．How Space of Mind School cultivates students' life skills.答案：A　主旨大意题。文章是总分模式，根据第一段最后一句“These are a few of the concepts that make Space of Mind School unique.”可知，这些理念使得Space of Mind School如此独特。故选A。Ⅱ.语言运用It was my first college acting class.
