Besides, I dont know what your middle school was like, but high school teachers will not care about things such as how much homework you already have in one night. Its best to just learn to deal with things and manage your time wisely so you can achieve everything you need to.Frank, Aged 21 I think almost every kid feels both nervous and excited before their first day. You will probably love it. I know I did. You should join some sports or activities that will make your high school experience more enjoyable. Good luck!Eddie, Aged 20 When I started high school I was really nervous too, especially since I had been homeschooled all through middle school and didnt really know anyone. I suppose the best advice would be to just relax. The first couple of days can be a little bit hard, but things will bee easier before you know it.David, Aged 19 Im not going to lie. The first day is kind of frightening (令人恐懼的). But youll get used to it. Dont be afraid of anyone; upperclassmen will pick on you more if you let them know youre afraid. Just take it easy. Making some friends and staying with them will greatly help you get used to high school quickly. After the first week its really not bad at all. Dont worry.21.

David.C. Sharon.D. Eddie.BI think a close friend is someone you get on really well with, who helps you when you have problems, who gives you advice, and who always has time for you. I didnt use to have many close friends when I was at school or at university as I was very shy, but now I have several. They are all women I think its difficult to have a close friend of the opposite sex (異性). MarieI dont really have any close friends. I know a lot of people but mainly through work, and the kind of social occasions (場合) when we meet are business dinners and evening parties. I think if you e from a really close family, then friends are a bit unnecessary. The little free time I have I prefer to spend with my family. RichardI think a close friend is someone who youve known for a long time, and who you still get on with. They probably have similar hobbies to you so you can do things together. Ive got three close friends who I was at high school with and we often go away together (without our parents of course). We always go camping and somewhere we can go walking, play football and be outside in the open air. DavidFor me close friends are the people you spend your free time with. I go out at weekends with a group of people there are about seven of us, and Id say we are all close friends. We also live near each other. I dont think you can have close friends at a distance (在遠處); you need to be able to see each other often. But I dont think you need to be doing the same things. I mean Im at university but none of my friends are. Ana24. What does Richard say about friends?A. Its hard to make friends at work.B. Theyre less important than family.C.

I made lots of new friends and really liked my teachers. I was nervous the night before, but I had no reason to be. Everyone was so friendly and polite. They made me feel at ease. It was like Id been at the school for a hundred years!The day started very early at 7:00 am. I had my breakfast downstairs with my mom. She could tell that I was very nervous. Mom kept asking me what was wrong. She told me I had nothing to worry about and that everyone was going to love me. If they didnt love me, Mom said to send them her way for a good talking to. I couldnt stop laughing.My mom dropped me off at the school gates about five minutes before the bell. A little blonde (金發(fā)的) girl got dropped off at the same time and started waving (招手) at me. She ran over and told me her name was Abigail. She was very nice and we became close straight away. We spent all morning together and began to talk to another girl called Stacey. The three of us sat together in class all day and we even made our way home together! It went so quickly. Our teacher told us that tomorrow we would really start learning and developing new skills.I cannot wait until tomorrow and feel as though I am really going to enjoy my time at my new school.

Unlike you, they also studied Greek (希臘語) and Latin (拉丁語). In fact, students spent more than half their time studying Greek and Latin.The same was true for most students in Europe. Until the seventh century, all educated Europeans knew Latin. It did not matter if they lived in England, Italy, France or Spain. If they were educated, they knew Latin.During the seventh century, educated Europeans began to study Greek as well as Latin. Greek and Latin had been the leading languages of the ancient Greeks and Romans. All educated Europeans were expected to know these languages.To educated Europeans, the languages of the Greeks and the Romans were important. The ideas of the Greeks and Romans were also important. People knew that many of their own ideas had e from the Greeks and the Romans. To understand their own culture, they must understand its origin (起源). They knew that those beginnings lay in the classical (古典文學的) world.Today we have so many things to study that few people have time to learn Greek and Latin. Few of you will study either language in school. Yet the ideas of the Greeks and the Romans are still important to us. These ideas still help to shape Western culture today. To understand our own culture, we must understand the culture of the classical world.32. Two hundred years ago, in American schools _.A. there were many educated GreeksB.
