A Teenager?s 3-day School Holiday
Day One I've had an OK day today. I got up at 12 midday, ate cookie crisp for breakfast. Mum went out to not-far-away Tesco (乐购) during the afternoon. I wasn't on my own for too long though. Mum only bought food for lunch. At about 6:30, I had a microwaveable pizza and crinkle chips. I went upstairs, finished off my English homework. I listened to Avril Lavigne and Dido for a while, came back downstairs at about 7:15 and came onto the Internet.
Day Two I woke up at 10:45, Mum and I went into town. After that, we phoned mum's friend and her daughter (my friend) to ask if we could come round, as we hadn't seen each other for months! We stayed at our friends? house for an hour and a half --- during that time my friend and I surfed the Internet. After that we went to Tesco to get dinner --- microwave Indian meal for three (mum, dad, me).
Day Three I woke up at 2 pm, and so did my mum. We went to Tesco at 3:30 p.m. --- where mum kept meeting her friends, and we chatted for 2 hours! When we got home, it was already time for dinner (sausage, egg and chips). Afterwards, I did more homework until 9 p.m. --- and I'm not joking!
55. The writer woke up at 2 p.m. on the first day.

B. Choose the best answer（根据短文内容，选择最恰当的答案）:（共5分）
How do you feel when you have to make a speech in front of class? What about when you go to a birthday party? Do you get really shy?
Shyness means feeling frightened when you?re around other people. We have found that more than 80 percent of middle school students feel afraid to be the center of attention. Some kids are born shy. Some become shy later because of their life experiences.
It?s OK if it takes some time to feel yourself again when you go to a new place or meet new people. In fact, everybody gets a little shy sometimes. It?s just a case of how much.
Most people have red faces and talk in broken sentences when they get shy. But some become so shy that they won?t go to a
restaurant because they are too nervous to order and pay for their food. Some are afraid of meeting new people, so they seldom go outside. This kind of shyness can be bad for a person.
If shyness doesn?t stop you from doing something you want to do, being shy isn?t a very big problem. Some experts say shy people are cleverer because they think more and talk less. Shy people are also good at working with others because they think more for other people. Some great people in history were shy, too.
You see, being shy isn?t all bad. But remember not to let good opportunities pass by just because of it! If you have to sing a song at a birthday party or practice your spoken English in front of others, just do it! There?s nothing to be afraid of. 60. What kind of shyness can be bad according to the passage?
A. You feel a little nervous when you go to a new place. B. You find it hard to enjoy yourself at a party.
C. You have a red face when you?re asked to answer a question in class. D. You seldom go outside, afraid of meeting new people.
61. From the whole passage, we know that ______.
A. kids are all born shy
B. shy people can also be successful D. shy people are not good at spoken English
C. you can?t change yourself
62. If you have to practice your spoken English in class, ______.
A. stay at home and say nothing C. try to speak in front of class
B. let good chances pass by
D. learn to sing a song at a birthday party
63. The underlined phrase “to feel yourself again” in the third paragraph means ______.
A. to feel confident and comfortable C. to feel happy and excited
B. to feel frightened and afraid D. to feel shy and bad
64. What?s the best title for this passage?
A. Don?t be afraid of being shy! C. Shyness is terrible for all of us!
B. Try to feel yourself again! D. Speak out and practice English!
