         Starting a new school term is always exciting. It is a chance to see your friends again. But most exciting
      of all, the new term is a chance to take up new hobbies. It is common in Britain for students to take up
     new hobbies after the Christmas holidays. Deciding to start something new is a common New Year plan.
         Most schools provide different kinds of hobby classes. Students take them in their free periods or after
      school. Some classes you have to pay for and others are free. For example, I once took a free
      Wednesday evening gymnastics (体操) class in my school. But when I learnt how to play the drum (鼓)
      my parents had to pay for the lessons.
         The most popular hobby classes at my school were piano lessons and drama club. Both classes offered
      exams students could take. Students with many hobbies sometimes felt more stressed than those without
      any. But the students with hobbies left school with some more skills.
         I haven't continued any of the hobbies I began at school. But I have never regretted (遗憾、懊悔)
     taking them. My best friend today is someone I met in my gymnastics class.
    1. The most exciting thing in a new school term is to_____.
        A. meet your friends again           
        B. start a new hobby 
        C. learn new subjects                
        D. stay with your teachers again
    2. The most popular hobby classes in the writer's school are_____. 
        A. gymnastics and playing the drum    
        B. drama club and piano lessons 
        C. drama club and playing the drum    
        D. gymnastics and piano lessons
    3. Which of the following statements is right?
       A. Students can take all hobby classes for free every term.
       B. Few students in Britain take up new hobbies in a new term.
       C. Students with many hobbies feel more excited at school.
       D. one can make many friends in his or her hobby classes.

         It was already late when we started going to the next town. It was about 15 miles away on the other
     side of the hill. There we felt sure that we would find a bed for the night. Darkness fell along the narrow
      road to the hill. As we climbed higher, it became colder and rain began to fall. It was difficult at times to
      see the road, so I asked my friend John to drive slowly.
         We travelled for about 20 miles but we couldn't find the town. We were beginning to feel worried.
      Then the car stopped. We found that we were out of petrol (汽油), so we decided to spend the night in
      the car.
         After eating some bread, I tried to go to sleep at once, but John, a poor sleeper, got out of the car after
      a few minutes and went for a walk up the hill. Soon, he came running back. From the top of the hill he
     saw the lights of the town in the valley below. At once, we tried to push the car to the top of the hill. In
     less than an hour we were in the town, and we found a hotel there easily.
