To help students develop these social skills, schools offer a large number of afterschool activities, in other words, activities that take place outside classroom lessons. When deciding which students to accept, employers and colleges look for students who have skills in several areas. Exam grades are very important, but so are the afterschool activities. By taking part in these activities, students show their special talents, their ability to lead, and their ability to get on with others.Competitive sports, for example, baseball, are probably the most popular of all the afterschool activities. This is because, for many American parents, it is important that their children, particularly boys, learn how to compete successfully. Young people are encouraged to take part in team sports such as football and basketball, since these games teach you to have the “winning spirit”. For some students and their parents, high school sport is considered more important than academic achievements.During the long summer holidays, it is a custom for American children to spend several weeks at summer camps. There are thousands of camps, and they can be found all over the country. What these camps offer is an opportunity to take part in many different kinds of outdoor activities, for example, horse riding and water skiing. Older teenagers are more likely to get summer jobs or go camping with a group of friends. Many go backpacking in the mountains of the west.課外活動在美國，社交能力的培養(yǎng)被看作和智力水平的培養(yǎng)同等重要。為了幫助學(xué)生培養(yǎng)這些社交技能，學(xué)校安排大量的課外活動，即在教室里上完課后進行的活動。當(dāng)決定接受哪些學(xué)生時，雇主和大學(xué)都尋找那些在多個領(lǐng)域有技能的學(xué)生?？荚嚦煽兒苤匾?，但是課外活動也很重要。通過參加這些活動，學(xué)生們展示自己的特殊才能、領(lǐng)導(dǎo)能力以及與他人相處的能力。競技體育運動，比如棒球，可能是所有課外活動中最流行的。這是因為，對許多美國父母來說，他們的孩子，尤其是男孩子，學(xué)習(xí)如何成功地競爭是很重要的。年輕人被鼓勵參與團隊性的體育運動，比如足球和籃球，因為這些運動教你擁有“勝利精神”。對一些學(xué)生和他們的父母來說，高中體育運動比學(xué)術(shù)成就更重要。在漫長的暑假期間，在夏令營度過幾個星期已成為美國孩子的習(xí)慣。有數(shù)千個營地，在國家的各個地方都能找到。這些野營提供的是參加各種不同的戶外活動的機會，例如騎馬和滑水運動。年齡稍大的孩子更有可能找份暑期工作或者和一幫朋友去野營。許多人到西部山區(qū)背包旅行。Reading PracticeMy SchooldaysThey say that schooldays are the happiest days of your life, but not for me! My father worked abroad, so I was sent to a boarding school when I was seven. Like most schoolchildren, I had already been to nursery school. I could recite the alphabet, and read some simple books, but this was my first experience of the institution my parents called “big school”. In fact, the only preparation I had for this adventure was watching as my mother sewed my name tag into my shirts, trousers and woollen sweaters.I arrived with one suitcase, my only luggage for a term. I was shown to the dormitory where I would sleep with five other innocent boys. The bedding was a pillow, a sheet, and a thin quilt. There were two worn armchairs, a few shabby cushions, an electric kettle to heat water for tea, some posters for decoration but no curtains. The washroom had a basin and a bathtub, but no heating. Im ashamed to admit that I sobbed as I fell asleep that night.I remember that my first lesson was arithmetic. My first task was to multiply seven by three. No one explained why! It took me years to understand the greater mystery of algebra, geometry, and concepts such as cubic metres, acres and grams.We had a dynamic English teacher, a bachelor who had plenty of time for us boys and inspired my lifelong love of literature. There was also a teacher of botanical science, who introduced me to my passion for flowers and plants. We spent hours studying the structure of leaves under the microscope.School regulations were strict. Being punctual for classes was essential, no one was allowed to be late. Sport was compulsory, and every week we had to go for a fivekilometre run, wearing just a Tshirt and a pair of shorts even on freezing cold November days. We all had to attend morning assembly every weekday, except for boys of other faiths, who were allowed to stay in their classrooms. I wanted to become a Catholic simply so I could stay with my books!But there were also so many silly rules to follow, which irritated or even upset me. For example, everyone had to polish their shoes every day, and no one was allowed trousers with zippers, only buttons! On Sundays, it was compulsory to write home. Every day I would check my mailbox, looking forward to my mummys airmail letter. But my parents lived in Asia and, to my great disappointment, I only got a reply once a fortnight.I left eleven years later, with my school leaving certificate, and a scholarship to study at Oxford University. Many people talk about their happiness at school, but for me, at eighteen, all I felt was a sense of liberation.我的學(xué)校生活人們說校園生活是人的一生中最快樂的日子，但對我來說并非如此！我父親在國外工作，因此我7歲時就被送到了寄宿學(xué)校上學(xué)。像大多數(shù)的學(xué)童一樣，我已經(jīng)上過幼兒園了。我能背誦字母表，閱讀一些簡單的書，但這是我在被我父母稱為“大學(xué)校”的機構(gòu)中的第一次經(jīng)歷。事實上，為這次冒險，我做的準(zhǔn)備僅僅就是看著母親把我的名字標(biāo)簽縫進我的襯衫，褲子和毛衣里面。我?guī)е粋€行李箱到了學(xué)校，那是我這個學(xué)期唯一的行李。我被領(lǐng)到了宿舍，在那里我將和其他五個天真的男孩共住。寢具就是一個枕頭、一個床單和一床薄被子。宿舍里有兩把磨損了的扶手椅，幾個破舊的靠墊，一個用來燒水泡茶的電熱水壺和一些裝飾用的海報，但是沒有窗簾。洗手間有一個洗臉盆和一個浴盆，但沒有暖氣。我羞于承認那天晚上我是哭著睡著的。我記得我的第一節(jié)課是算術(shù)。我的第一個任務(wù)是計算7乘以3得多少。沒有人解釋為什么！我用了幾年的時間才弄明白代數(shù)、幾何學(xué)的奧秘以及立方米、英畝和克等概念。我們有一位精力充沛的英語老師，他是一位有大量的時間跟我們這些男孩在一起的單身漢，他激起了我對文學(xué)的終生熱愛。我們還有一位植物學(xué)老師，他引薦我熱愛花兒和植物。我們會花幾個小時的時間在顯微鏡下研究葉子的結(jié)構(gòu)。學(xué)校的規(guī)定很嚴(yán)格。上課必須準(zhǔn)時，任何人不準(zhǔn)遲到。體育運動是強制性的，每個星期我們都必須跑五千米，跑時僅穿著一件T恤衫和一條短褲，即使是在極冷的11月份的天氣里。我們都必須參加每個工作日的晨會，除了那些有其他信仰的男生，他們被允許待在教室里。我當(dāng)時想成為一名天主教徒，那樣就可以跟我的書待在一起了！但是還有很多必須遵從的愚蠢的規(guī)定，這些都使我感到生氣甚至是惱怒。例如，每人每天都必須擦鞋，不準(zhǔn)穿帶拉鏈的褲子，只能穿帶扣子的！在星期天，必須給家里寫信。每天我都檢查我的郵箱，盼著媽媽的航空郵件。但是父母住在亞洲，使我失望的是，每兩個星期我才能收到一封回信。11年后我離開了學(xué)校，帶著我的畢業(yè)證書和一筆去牛津大學(xué)學(xué)習(xí)的獎學(xué)金。很多人談?wù)搶W(xué)校里的快樂時光，但對于我來說，18歲時，我所感到的是一種解放的感覺。Cultural CornerThe American Art of CheerleadingWhat is a cheerleader?A cheerleader is a member of a team that dances and does gymnastics before and during competitive games such as baseball. They do this in order to encourage crowds to cheer their sports teams. The team is called a cheerleading squad. Cheerleading only exists in America, and today it is mostly girls that do it.What is the history of cheerleading?Cheerleading began in allmen colleges in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. As time passed, more and more colleges started cheerleading, and more women started doing it than men. It was not until the 1920s that pompoms began to play an important part in cheerleading. At about the same time, cheerleaders began to include gymnastics in their routines. By the 1950s, most American high schools had cheerleading squads. In 1978, the National Cheerleading Championships were shown on television, and universities began offering courses in cheerleading. Today, cheerleading competitions are an important part of school and college life and for many squads, cheerleading is a very serious activity. Cheerleading squads can be found at most athletic events.How do Americans feel about cheerleading?For cheerleaders, their sport is just as serious as baseball or football. However, many Americans are amused by cheerleadingand see it as rather a stupid activity. Cheerleaders reply that a lot of training is needed to do the dance and gym routines. Many girls try to become cheerleaders but very few are accepted. To be a cheerleader is to play a very important part in your school. In fact, cheerleading is considered so important in America that several movies have been made about it！美國拉拉隊的藝術(shù)什么是拉拉隊隊員？拉拉隊隊員是一支隊伍中的一員，這支隊伍在競技類比賽如棒球比賽之前和比賽過程中跳舞和表演體操。他們這樣做是為了鼓舞人們?yōu)樗麄兊捏w育隊加油。這種隊伍被稱為拉拉隊。拉拉隊僅存在于美國，而且現(xiàn)在的隊員大多是女孩子。拉拉隊的歷史是什么？拉拉隊在19世紀(jì)末20世紀(jì)初出現(xiàn)于男子院校。隨著時間的推移，越來越多的院校開始組建拉拉隊，并且加入拉拉隊的女生比男生還要多。直到20世紀(jì)20年代，彩線球才在拉拉隊隊員的表演中發(fā)揮重要作用。幾乎在同時，拉拉隊隊員開始把體操列入他們的常規(guī)表演中。到20世紀(jì)50年代時，大多數(shù)美國高中都有了拉拉隊。1978年，全國拉拉隊錦標(biāo)賽在電視上播出，大學(xué)也開始開設(shè)有關(guān)拉拉隊的課程。如今，拉拉隊競賽成為高中和大學(xué)生活的一個重要部分。對于許多拉拉隊來說，當(dāng)拉拉隊隊員是一件很嚴(yán)肅的事情。在大多數(shù)的運動賽事上都能看到拉拉隊的身影。美國人怎么看當(dāng)拉拉隊隊員？對拉拉隊隊員來說，他們的運動與棒球或足球運動一樣嚴(yán)肅。然而，很多美國人覺得當(dāng)拉拉隊隊員很可笑，把它看作一種愚蠢的活動。拉拉隊隊員回應(yīng)說常規(guī)的舞蹈和體操都需要大量的訓(xùn)練。很多女孩努力想成為拉拉隊隊員，但只有少數(shù)人會被接受。要成為一名拉拉隊隊員就要在學(xué)校里扮演重要的角色。事實上，在美國拉拉隊被看得如此重要，以至于有關(guān)它的電影都拍過幾部了！1Which club would attract students who enjoy music？(P19)哪一個俱樂部會吸引熱愛音樂的學(xué)生？attract vt.吸引This project has attracted his interest.這項工程吸引了他的興趣。(1)attract ones attention吸引某人的注意attract sb. to sb./sth. 引起某人對某人/某物的注意(2)attractive adj. 吸引人的be attractive to 對有吸引力(3)attraction n. 吸引；吸引人的事物；吸引力tourist attraction 旅游勝地When the teacher wrote the math problem, several students raised their hands to attract_her_attention.當(dāng)老師寫下那道數(shù)學(xué)題后，幾個學(xué)生舉手以引起她的注意。China is_attractive_to tourists for its beautiful scenery and historic sites.中國的美麗風(fēng)景和歷史古跡對旅游者很有吸引力。Could you recommend some tourist attractions (attract)here?你能推薦一些這里的風(fēng)景區(qū)嗎？2For keen photographers only (P20)只歡迎攝影愛好者keen adj.渴望的；熱切的；熱心的；強烈的；敏銳的；鋒利的He handed me a knife with a keen edge.他遞給我一把鋒利的刀。The blind have a keen sense of touch.盲人有敏銳的觸覺。be keen to do sth.渴望做某事be keen on (doing) sth.
