Ⅰ. 阅读理解

Many high school football programs have been cut recently due to concerns about player safety. Safety is one factor families may consider as their high schoolers decide what extracurricular(课外的) activities to participate in this year. Decreased football programs may also mean students are looking for new activities. For teens planning to apply to college, the activities they join in could hold weight during the admissions process.

“We are not looking at just the student's academic records, although that's obviously important，” says Drew Riley, Associate Dean of Admission at Colgate University in New York. “Generally, we're looking for students who will contribute to university life beyond the classroom.”

Potential college students may have many activities to choose from, but they and their families should consider the following questions before selecting extracurricular activities.

1. Is the student interested in the activity? Students should look for activities they are passionate about and can participate in fully. These activities don't need to be tied to a particular academic interest either. Students shouldn't limit themselves to only one activity, but there should be some depth and breadth to the activities. Longevity (持久) is important too. When writing applications, students should focus on the activities that will help them stand out.

2. Does the activity help the munity? Sometimes admissions officers at college want to see that applicants are motivated not just by improving themselves—but their munities too—through activities. Students don't necessarily have to participate in a service trip abroad to show this, Riley says. It could be something small that shows students attempt to make a positive impact on the world.

3. What is the student's motivation for the activity? Admissions officers read hundreds—if not thousands—of applications a year and can tell if students aren't being authentic and are just participating in activities because they think it will build their resume(个人简历) for college, says Riley. Students should have an authentic interest in the activities they join.

1. Why are high school football programs mentioned in the first paragraph? A. To show the benefits of extracurricular activities.

B. To stress the importance of safety in activities. C. To describe some mon kinds of activities. D. To introduce the topic for discussion.

2. What does the author say about students' extracurricular involvement? A. It should be helpful in showing their personality. B. It can make a difference to their college application. C. It should be centered on students' self－improvement. D. It should be beneficial to their academic improvement.

3. Which can replace the underlined word “passionate” in Paragraph 4? A. Crazy. C. Cautious.

4. What is the passage mainly about?

A. High school students are looking for new activities. B. Whether high school football programs should be cut.

C. Why extracurricular activities pay off with college admission.

D. Potential college students should attach importance to after－school activities. 答案与解析

【文章大意】 本文是一篇议论文。如今，高中生选择课外活动时应考虑大学招生录取方面的因素。同时，作者也提供了一些选择课外活动的建议。 1. 答案 D

解析 考查推理判断。根据文章第一段的内容，尤其是“Decreased football programs may ... the activities they join in could hold weight during the admissions process”可知，作者提及高中足球活动是为了引出下文要讨论的主题。故选D项。 2. 答案 B

解析 考查推理判断。根据第一段中的最后一句话及第二段中的“We are not looking at just the student's academic records, although that's obviously important”和“Generally, we're looking for students who will contribute to university life beyond the classroom”可知，高中生所参加的课外活动在其申请大学时有一定的影响。大学在录取学生时不仅看他们的学习成绩，还关注他们在教室之外能给大学作出什么样的贡献。由此可知，学生参与课外活动会对其大学申请产生影响。故选B项。 3. 答案 A

解析 考查词义猜测。根据第四段中的“Is the student interested in the activity？”可知，本段主要强调的是高中生在选择课外活动时要考虑自己是否对要选择的活动感兴趣。由此可推知，画线词所在句指的是学生应该选择他们很感兴趣且会完全参与其中的活动。

B. Curious. D. Happy.

passionate的意思应是“狂热的”，与crazy的意思相近。故选A项。 4. 答案 D

解析 考查主旨大意。纵观全文可知，大学在招生的时候，对学生参与课外活动的情况很看重，因此未来的大学生(高中生)应重视课外活动。故D项最能概括本文的主要内容。 Ⅱ. 完形填空
