Question

It’s school time again! You’re probably feeling excited and maybe a little sad that summer is over. Some kids feel nervous or a little scared（害怕） on the first day of school because of all the new things: new teachers, new friends, and even a new school. Luckily, these “new” worries only stick around for a little while. Let’s find out more about going to a new school.

Most teachers kick off the new school year by introducing themselves and talking about all the stuff you’ll be doing that year. Some teachers give students a chance to tell something about themselves to the rest of the class, too. When teachers do the talking on the first day, they often go over classroom rules and school rules so you’ll know what’s allowed and what’s not. Please pay close attention.

You might already know a lot of people in your classes on the first day, but it’s a great day to make a new friend, so try to say hello to kids you know and new ones that you don’t. Make the first move and you’ll be glad you did, and so will your new friend!

Seeing friends you haven’t seen for some time can make the first day a good one. You can make the day feel special by wearing clothes that you really like. Maybe you got a great T-shirt on one of your vacations, or a pair of sneakers（运动鞋）. It also can make you feel good to be prepared and have all the things you need, such as pencils, folders, and whatever else you’ll be needing. But make sure that you pack them the night before in case you don’t have time in the morning.

【解析】

本文为记叙文，文章讲述了学生到了新的学校，遇到了新的老师同学，在一个陌生的环境里，度过第一天的注意事项。

1.词义猜测题。根据the new school year by introducing themselves（在新学年大家都不认识，互相作介绍），所以推测是教师工作的开始，故选A。

2.主旨大意题。根据最后一段It also can make you feel good to be prepared and have all the things you need, such as pencils, folders, and whatever else you’ll be needing. But make sure that you pack them the night before in case you don’t have time in the morning.可知，是告诉学生要开学前的一天把东西都收拾好，故选B。

3.细节理解题。根据第二段中Some teachers give students a chance to tell something about themselves to the rest of the class, too. When teachers do the talking on the first day, they often go over classroom rules and school rules so you’ll know what’s allowed and what’s not.和You might already know a lot of people in your classes on the first day, but it’s a great day to make a new friend. 可知，在开学的第一天学生要作自我介绍，了解学校的规章制度和结交一些新朋友，D项复习新功课不是开学第一天要做的，故选D。

4.推理判断题。根据第一段中Some kids feel nervous or a little scared（害怕） on the first day of school because of all the new things可知，到了一个陌生的环境，大多数学生是紧张和害怕的，可以推测当遇到老朋友时可能是高兴的，故选C。
