School is a place that is familiar to everyone. Let’s find out what American students do in school.　

An official dance party is held about twice a year in high schools in the United States. When the final football game is over for the season there is a homecoming party. Sometimes, students select a king from among the football players, and a queen from among the girls. Every student can attend and have fun with the help of their teachers. Sometimes, students, called bookworms, to the surprise of the other students, come to the party in a beautiful dress.
　 The most exciting party that students can go to would have to be a dance party. Students attend it in dresses similar to those of Hollywood stars and the atmosphere is comparable to an Oscar Award party. Since such a party is for seniors, students usually stay up the night trying to enjoy their last year in high school.
　 In American schools, instead of the teachers going to different rooms, students have their own class schedules (課程表) and go to different classrooms. When a student is away from school, they must have an explanation for being away along with the signature(簽名) of a parent. The signed paper is then handed in to the school office. High school drop outs and students being expelled (除名) are not that uncommon in the States. High absences without excuses are one of the reasons why students are expelled from school. American students also enjoy a number of activities out of school like cheerleading (拉拉隊(duì)), student government and a host of different sports.

56. Whose presence at the homecoming party can make others amazed?

　 A. The king and the queen acted by students.

　 B. The laziest student in study.

　 C. The teacher who offers advice.

　 D. Students who study hardest.

57. Why do students hold the dance party till the next morning?

　 A. Because they would like to dance and sang madly.

　 B. Because this is the only chance that they get dressed like film stars.

　 C. Because students make it as exciting as an awarding party of Oscar.

　 D. Because this perhaps is the last chance that they can enjoy their school life.

58. According to the passage, American students in school ________.

A. study in the same classroom

B. have the same class with each other

C. attend different classes in different places

D. wait for their teachers in their class

59. What is this passage mainly about?

A. The organizing of dance parties.　　 B. Homecoming party.

C. How to ask for a leave. D. School life in America.

You may not realize it, but you are doing more than just studying when you are at school. The school is also the place where you learn__________. But this is not always easy. What can you do if you just don’t like one of your classmates?

If you discover that you have problems getting along with your classmates or friends, the most important thing to learn is tolerance. Tolerance is the ability to realize and respect the differences in others.We can not change the way that other people do, so it is important to learn to live happily with them.

Tolerance will make everyone get on better with each other. Knowing others constantly makes us  understand others’differences. Something different does not exactly mean that it is bad. Tolerance teaches us to keep an even temper and an open mind.

You need to remember an old saying, “Treat others how you want to be treated.” You would like to be treated kindly by your classmates, so it is important to treat them kindly too. If you tolerate something, it does not mean that you have to like it. No one is asking you to change who you are or what you believe in.Tolerance just means that you should respect the differences in others and not try to make them change.

It is important to practice tolerance, because it will make everyone’s life easier. Learn to accept people for their different abilities and interests. The world is very different, and practicing tolerance in your own school and city can help make a difference.
