【解析】

文章大意：本文主要通过一些具体方面揭示了中国中学生和美国中学生生活上的不同。

1.

前句“but they’ll study until over 10:30 at night.”说中国学生晚上学习到十点半，这里是在进一步描述他们学习的时间，表示有的时候他们学习更晚，故答案为B。

2.

从后面的“Most of the time they send e­mails to their friends and talk to them. They don’t often talk about grades.”“大多数时间他们用电子邮件和朋友交流，他们很少谈论成绩”得知这是在描述美国学生了，所以填空句子是在转折，转而描述美国学生，故答案为E。

3.

从后句的They also care about their extracurricular (课外的) activities like soccer teams and others. “他们也考虑他们的课外活动”，说明成绩也是考量的一个方面，不仅看成绩，也要看课外活动，故答案为F。

4.

从前句“So most of the students who are good at sports will join sports teams.”得知“大多数擅长体育运动的学生会加入他们感兴趣的体育队”，这种做法就是他们在空余时间做的事情，故答案为D。

5.

从后句的“They have to take and pass before they graduate.”“他们也不得不在毕业前通过考试”得知他们也是有考试的，故答案为A。
