As a student,you must want to know something about American high school students．In fact, just like in China, in the United States, high school is usually divided into two parts, one is called “junior high school” and the other is “senior high school”．
In China, children enjoy free education of nine years, but in the United States, the students enjoy free education until they are eighteen years old．As a result of the free education system, American children have little difficulty in going to senior high school．
American high school students can take part in a lot of activities outside the classroom, such as joining a music group or a sports team．Certainly, just like students in China, American students have to work hard in order to get good marks if they want to go to a good university．They don’t specialize(专攻)in any special subjects, and they take classes in all kinds of subjects all through the high school time．And those who come out with low marks at the end of a school year and who are supposed to stay a grade are often allowed to go on to the next grade．
In American high schools, there is fighting or hurting or other kinds of bad behavior(行为)．So children who want to go to universities are often sent to suburban(郊外的)high schools, where most students aim at going to good universities and the atmosphere(气氛)is quite different．
Peter is a Grade One student in high school, and he has a part time job in a restaurant．He washes dishes on Saturdays and Sundays from 8∶00 a.m.until 4∶00 p.m．He can earn ＄5.50 an hour．He saves almost all the money he can get because he wants to go to a good university．The cost goes up every year in universities．Of course, He has to spend some money when he goes out on Saturday nights．
Jane is a student in high school．She is in Grade Two．She has a job as a cashier(收银员)in a shop．The job pays well－about ＄6.75 an hour．On weekdays, she works every night after school from 4∶00 until 8∶00．So she has no time for homework, and her grades aren’t very good this year．But she has to work, or she can’t buy nice clothes and can’t go out on Saturday nights．Also, her car costs a lot of money．
Lucy is a new student in a university．She finds a part time job and works in a law office for three hours every weekday afternoon．She does office work, like putting away papers and letters,for ＄8.25 an hour．The job gives her a good chance to learn things because she wants to be a lawyer someday．But she doesn’t want to work every term．She needs time to study．

(南昌市南昌二中高三冲刺模拟考试C篇)
Misery and setbacks are not always as terrible as one imagines．Hard times can offer new ways of looking at life that would otherwise never be known．And, if you are a writer, this can be the source of much of your success．
Popular British author, Charles Dickens' （1812-1870） family could hardly make ends meet （入不敷出）．They could only afford to send one of their six children to school．
Dickens was not that child．
His parents chose to send a daughter, who had a talent for music, to an academy．Then at the age of 12, Dickens' life took another turn for the worse．
His father, a clerk, was placed in prison for unpaid debts．And, being the oldest male left at home, Dickens took up work at a factory．His horrible experience there became the fuel for his future writing．
His father was freed three months later and inherited （继承） a small amount of money．Dickens was then sent to school．
From 1836 to 1837, he wrote a monthly series of stories．Thus the "Pickwick Papers" （《匹克威克外传》）, came into being, which brought fame to the 23-year-old man．
Throughout his career, Dickens covers various situations in his novels．He wrote about the miserable lives of the poor in "Oliver Twist" （《雾都孤儿》）, the French Revolution in "Tale of Two Cities", and social reform in "Hard Times" （《艰难时世》）．He also wrote "David Copperfield" （《大卫·科波菲尔》）, a book thought to be based on his own life．
"I do not write bitterly or angrily: for I know all these things have worked together to make me what I am," he once said．
His difficult childhood did indeed shape the person he became, as well as his writing career．There are shades of young Dickens in many of his most beloved characters, including David Copperfield and Oliver Twist．
Like the author, all these characters come from poor beginnings and are able to rise above their setbacks and achieve success．
"Minds, like bodies, will often fall into an ill-conditioned state from too much comfort," he once wrote．
On June 9th, 1870, aged 58, Dickens died, leaving one unfinished work．The words on his tombstone read: "He was a sympathizer （同情者） to the poor, the suffering and the oppressed （受压迫者）, and by his death, one of England's greatest writers is lost to the world．"
64．The book that called public attention to Dickens was ______．
A．the Pickwick Papers B．Oliver Twist
C．Tale of Two Cities D．David Copperfield
65．The phrase “shades of” in bold means “_____”．
A．various shapes of B．situations of
C．different experiences D．reminders of
66．How did Dickens see his childhood?
A．He felt grateful for it．
B．He felt it a pity that things weren’t in his favor．
C．He loved writing about it．
D．He chose to forget the bitterness about it．
67．From the story, we can see Dickens’ attitude towards an easy life is ______．
A．to enjoy it B．to hate it
C．not to indulge in （沉湎于） it D．to work hard for it
