英语试卷B1U1 学校:_____姓名：_____班级：_____考号：_____ 一、阅读理解 I think the biggest difference between middle and high school is the homework load (工作量) and size of the school. I went from maybe fifteen minutes of homework a night to several hours, so I had to learn how to make full use of time!

You will be faced with entering a new school, making new friends in an unfamiliar class, and getting to know new teachers. These new teachers will usually have higher academic expectations than your junior high school teachers. They want to help you get into college; in return, they expect you to work hard and improve your skills. Although these are all big changes, they are nothing you cannot handle. There are many different useful resources that help you deal with any problem. Your teachers, parents, and friends are there to help you’re your tran ... ...
