BU accepts self-reported standardized test scores on your application. You may also submit your official test
scores by the testing agency, or through the self-report form on the My BU Applicant Portal.

agency will be required before registering at BU. If the scores on those differ even slightly from the scores you self-
reported earlier, your application will most likely be disqualified.
High School Reports
Official copies of your high school reports must be submitted by a school official. If you are admitted in an
international course with national exams, please see our High School Credentials (资格证书) page for how to
submit these official results.
For most BU programs, the recommended high school courses are as follows: 4 years of English, 3—4 years

Recently, the “city walk” has been gaining steam among residents and tourists around China. On social
platform Xiaohongshu, data shows that the number of city walk-related topic posts has increased by 700 percent
over the past three months, and the total number of interactions has increased by more than 600 percent.
A city walk is a form of urban tourism originating in the UK. Unlike traditional sightseeing, which aims to hit
famous attractions and commercial center, usually by vehicles with tense schedules, city walk is about “roaming”
around a city on foot, soaking up the atmosphere and finding unusual things that even a resident of the city might
not have noticed before. Such walks generally avoid famous scenic spots and shopping centers, and take you to
places where you can have real interactions with the local people, eat at small but authentic restaurants, and gain a
deeper understanding of the history and culture of the city.
City walkers are a cast of people who possess intense curiosity. They are eager to engage with the city they are
visiting or reside in their own way. By “roaming” on foot, city walkers can better feel the texture and listen to the
breath of a place. They seek pleasure more through connection than consumption, which indicates a deep cultural
curiosity. For example, in Chongqing, if you don’t take a walk, you can hardly experience the unique geographical
charm of the mountainous city. Be it the hutong in Beijing or the Chinese parasol tree district in Shanghai; city
walks allow people to see the scenery apart from the scene and uncover hidden knowledge.
The appeal of a city walk lies in the young generation’s changing attitude toward life — pursuing quality
leisure time while being occupied with demanding workloads and limited time for exploration. While roaming
along the road, you can entirely focus on yourself and listen to your inner voice and care for what you feel, which is
a way to love yourself and benefit your mental health. Just like Oscar Wilde once said, “To love oneself is the
beginning of a lifelong romance.”
4. What do the underlined words “gaining steam” in paragraph one probably mean?
A. Raising concerns. B. Getting outdated. C. Causing trouble. D. Receiving popularity.
5. How does the city walk differ from traditional sightseeing?
A. It pursues economical tourism.
B. It is usually well-organized and scheduled.
C. It helps promote the authentic food of the destination.
D. It focuses on feeling the local culture by connecting the city.
6. What do we know about city walkers?
A. They are keen to buy souvenirs.
B. They tend to walk as much as possible.
C. They have strong curiosity about the local culture.
D. They prefer the city landscape to the natural scenery.
7. What is the last paragraph mainly about?
A. Why city walk changes people’s lifestyle.
B. Why the young fall in love with a city walk.
C. How popular the city walk is among citizens.
D. What young people usually do during a city walk.
【答案】4. D 5. D 6. C 7. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍的是最近“城市漫步”在中国各地的居民和游客中越来越流行。
