Have you ever wondered what an American high school is really like? This article will describe a typical (典型的) high school and its students.
A typical American high school has several large buildings and enough space for about 1,500 students. Every student is given a locker. When students first arrive at school, they go straight to their lockers to put away or get their textbooks and to hang up their outdoor clothes. As American textbooks are expensive, students would rather loan(租借) than buy them. Students must pay back if they lost any of them.
American students have different types of school transport. They usually take a yellow school bus or walk to school if they live close enough. Sometimes their parents drive them to school. When they turn 16 years of age, most take a free driving class at school for one term. If students earn passing grades in the class and also pass their state driver’s exam, they can begin driving themselves to school.
Each day, students take six or seven classes. They must take science, math, English and social studies. They can choose art, homemaking, fashion design and other classes. In some schools students are required to take one or more of the following special classes: health education, physical education or foreign language studies. Students move to different classrooms for each subject. This is because each teacher has their own classroom. There is a five-minute break between classes, to give the students the time to hurry to their next class.
The regular school day usually ends early in the afternoon. After school more than half of the students are involved in after-school activities. These activities include sports-especially football, basketball, baseball and soccer or clubs, such as yearbook, speech, school newspaper, photograph or student government.

短文大意：这篇短文从生活，交通工具，课程及课外活动四个方面介绍了美国高中生的在校生活。
小题1:阅读短文可知，本文主要描述的是美国学生的高校生活。故填Life，生活。
小题2:根据第一段This article will describe a typical (典型的) high school and its students.描述，可知这篇短文主要描述的是美国的高校和他的学生们。故填复数名词students，学生们。
小题3:根据短文第二段描述，可知每个美国学生都有一个存放教科书和户外服装的箱子。故填形容词outdoor 户外的，作定语。
小题4:根据第二段As American textbooks are expensive, students would rather loan(租借) than buy them.描述，可知美国学生宁愿借书也不愿买书。本句中to是介词，后面接名词或者动名词作宾语，故填动名词buying，买。
小题5:联系右栏描述，可知此处指的是学生们上学的交通工具。故填：School，学校。
小题6:根据短文第三段Sometimes their parents drive them to school.描述，可知有时他们的父母开车送他们。故填复数名词parents，父母们。
小题7:根据第三段When they turn 16 years of age,……, they can begin driving themselves to school.描述，可知十六岁以后，在通过驾考之后，可以自己驾车去学校。本句中can是情态动词，后面动词用原形。结合语境可知填原形动词drive，驾驶。
小题8:根据短文第四段描述，可知学生们有时还要学习更多的专门课程。结合语境可知填形容词special，专门的，特殊的。
小题9:根据短文第四段Students move to different classrooms for each subject. 描述，可知上不同的课程，他们要去不同的教室。结合语境可知填形容词different，不同的，作定语。
小题10:根据短文最后一段after school more than half of the students are involved in after-school activities. Part描述，可知在课后大部分学生都参加他们喜欢的活动。短语take part in参加，故填part，部分。
