I have studied in the boarding school in UK for about two years, and I really like it very much.
I always wanted to run a business of some sort; and finally I got such a good chance to do
so at the beginning of the summer term. The business project is called Young Enterprise, where we set up a small company called “Limitless” and sold the products to the school and public. I was appointed deputy director and financial director of the company, in which my role was to manage the financial activities.
I have learn so much from this experience, for I could put what I has learnt into practice in a real life and learn to work with different people, which improved my skills in management and communication.
In this school we students can organize out own activities if we want to, and the school is usually highly supportive: so this term I have organized an Engineering Society in school, which arranges regular visits to local industries. So far, the society which has only 10 members has proved to be really “popular”. Well, it is always the quality, not the quantity, that matters, isn’t it?
I have had many opportunities to challenge myself since I got to the school, and I do think it is all of these challenges that make me more and more mature. Perhaps one of the most important lessons I have learned in this school is to have the initiative (主动) to look for any possible challenges.

Exposure to the radio frequently fields（射频场）generated by mobile phones does not cause head pain or increase blood pressure, according to a Norwegian study. Instead, people
who experience such symptoms（征兆）do so because they expect that they will occur, the findings suggested.
Dr Gunnhild Oftedal and colleagues at the Norway University of Science and Technology in Trondheim experimented on 17 subjects who “ regularly experienced pain or discomfort in the head during or shortly after mobile phone calls lasting between 15 and 30 minutes.”
The participants were tested during mobile phone radiofrequency exposure and sham exposure（假性辐射）, without knowing which sessions was which. Each session lasted 30 minutes. and 65 pairs of trials were conducted.
As reported in the medical magazine Cephalalgia, the subjects said they felt an increase in pain or discomfort during 68 per cent of all trials. The degree of not associated with the order of trials.
The researchers observed no significant correlations between actual exposures and the subjects’ reports of symptoms, and no effects of exposure on changes in heart rate or blood pressure.
Oftedal’s team concludes that the most likely explanation for the headaches and discomfort reported by the subjects “is that the symptoms are due to negative expectations.”
67. According to the report, people using mobiles feel affected by exposure to the radiofrequency fields because __________
A. they have merely imaginary expectations
B. some symptoms just occur in their body
C. there are negative effects produced by mobiles

A. researchers B. symptoms C. trials D. participants
69. Dr Gunnhild Oftedal and his colleagues _______.
A. find effects of exposure on changes in heart rate or blood pressure

D. conclude that the symptoms do result from the radiofrequency fields
70. We can infer from the report that _____.

B. the subjects share the same discomfort in both mobile radiofrequency exposure and sham exposure
C. the subjects are told in advance which section they will be in and which order they will follow

People say teenagers are no good. They make too much noise in shops; they drive wildly up and down the streets. And at times, some of these things are true. But there are also hard moments in the life of a teenager
A teenager is neither a lovely child, nor a respectable grown-up person. The numbers of his family consider a teenager a source of trouble. He feels that he has grown up.

If he refuses to carry out the orders, he is scolded. He may even be punished. He is criticized for all that he says and does. If he behaves like a child, he is told that he is grown-up and that he should not be childish. If he behaves like a grown-up man, he is told that he is disrespectful(无礼的).
A teenager becomes a lonely creature in the family. Children enjoy all the
love of the elders in the family. The teenagers get no love and no respect. So they often run away from home and find some joy in the company of the other teenagers of their age.
The trouble with teenagers is that they haven’t learnt to controlled and there are too many rules and regulations for them to obey. Although they teenagers have a miserable time with their family members and elders, they have a very good time with their friends in schools and colleges. So they spend most of their good time and have fun with their friends and classmates rather than with their parents.

When John Milton , writer of “Paradise Lost” ,entered Cambridge University, in 1625, he was already skilled in Latin after seven years of studying it as his second language at St. Paul’s School, London.

All schoolmasters believed Latin should be beaten in.
After several years of study ,the boys began to write compositions in imitation of the Latin writers they read. And as they began to read Latin poems ,they began to write poems in Latin .Because Milton was already a poet at ten ,his poems were much better than those painfully put together by the other boys.
