Reading can make you feel less alone and more connected with the world at large. It can open your eyes to

issues, successes and challenges that you never dreamed of, and take you to faraway places. Here are the top books

all teens should read before they turn 18.

A Wrinkle in Time by Madeleine L’Engle

Though this book recently became popular again due to the release of the movie version

the movie is not

a substitute for this beautiful story about family and the process of becoming who you truly are through the angle of

space and time exploration.

Wonder by R. J. Palacio

Auggie was born with a facial difference that kept him out of school for years. In fifth grade, he discovers

what it’s like to long for normalcy and also that difference can be the most meaningful teacher.

Brown Girl Dreaming by Jacqueline Woodson

The author shares beautiful poetry that will speak to teenagers about her experience of growing up in the

South as an African-American in the 1960s and 1970s. The poems are charged with the themes of self-awareness

and identity.

Finally came Wednesday! I walked onto campus (校园) feeling nervous even though I had walked on these

same grounds for two years because my junior high school is next door. Everything looked and felt different now

that I was in senior high.

I looked at my schedule (时间表). First period-German. Our German teacher was very friendly and I liked her

from the beginning. What I didn’t like, though, was that I was surrounded by students from other grades, with only

five familiar faces.

Then I had to walk all the way across campus and up three flights of stairs to get to my second period- biology.

Our biology teacher is Ms Campeau, and I think that she will teach us a lot this year because she is very to the

point. She also has her unique way of saying “be quiet”; she says “alligator”. She explained that she is the king, or

should I say queen, of the class because alligators are the “king of the swamps(沼泽)”.

My third class was English. After surviving two periods without too much of a challenge, I began to feel good.

However, the third period changed everything. Mr Valassidis, my English teacher, told us that we would have to

write 40 essays (文章) and read AP-level books such as The Odyssey this year. I love reading and writing, but 40

ESSAYS?AP-level books? Now I was scared. He also talked about how important it was to be focused. Last year

was not a very “focused” year for me. While doing homework, I was often talking on the phone, or busy with a

conversation online. I planned on stepping it up this year because I wanted to stay an honour(荣誉) student.

4. What did the author mainly write about in this passage?

A. Her new teachers. B. Her plan for the new year.

C. Her first day of senior high. D. Her schedule for Wednesday.

5. What should students do when Ms Campeau says “alligator”?

A. Sit still. B. Stop talking.

C. Look at the blackboard. D. Listen carefully.

A. Unattractive. B. difficult.

C. Very tiring. D. Very easy.

7. Why did the author feel scared during the third period?

A. She couldn’t focus on her work. B. She found the class demanding.

C. She didn’t like the teacher. D. She did poorly at school.

We all know the feeling—you want to check what someone you care about has been up to on social media (社

交媒体), and suddenly you find you are refused. It’s the start of mixed feelings—when did this happen? Did I do

anything wrong? What are they trying to hide from me?

And that’s what half of Chinese parents have to deal with when they try to browse (浏览) their children’s

WeChat Moments, also known as “Friends’ Circle”. According to a survey by Tencent, about 52 percent of WeChat

users aged 18 to 29 block their parents on Moments. The young interviewees said that parents “are worried about

everything”, along with reasons such as fear of parents’ disagreement, avoiding parents’ nagging (唠叨), and

protecting their private life. Xie Yun, a 26-year-old, said that while she didn’t block her parents completely, they

were in a specific group with which she only shared positive posts. “I don’t want my parents to see failures in my

life,” she said. Once her parents saw a Moments picture of her hand getting burned while cooking, and they

traveled all the way to her city to make sure she was all right.

The report also found that more than 49 percent of Chinese parents use WeChat as a main tool to communicate

with their children. Roughly 36 percent of the parents who took the survey said they checked every post made by

their children. When asked how they would respond to being blocked, some parents said they would start a

conversation with their children to find out the reason, while others said they wouldn’t care. And some parents just

were shrewder than their kids in this hide-and-seek game online. “I didn’t realize I was blocked until I compared

what I could see on my phone to what my son’s aunt could see,” said Chen, a mother of a 27-year-old son. “I chose

to remain silent on this and now I’m following my son’s posts through his aunt.”

8. What causes mixed feelings according to Paragraph 1?

A. Stress from being controlled.

B. Being turned down on social media.

C. Checking social media frequently.

D. Anxiety about the safety on social media.

9. What can we know about Xie Yun’s WeChat Moments?

A. It didn’t have pictures.

B. It only had positive posts.

C. It was set to be seen by herself.

D. It was open to her parents partly.

10. What does the underlined word “shrewder” mean?

A. Calmer. B. Securer. C. Smarter. D. Tougher.

11. What does the text mainly talk about?

A. Tough parent-child communication on WeChat.
