第三节 阅读理解（共20小题：每小题2分，满分40分）

A

More and more people think it necessary to study in an English-speaking country and it didn’t take long at all for me to decide to come and study in UK.

Having been in the school for 2 months, I’m getting used to school life, and I am starting to make the most of my time in here. School starts at 9 o’clock every morning, and every Monday, Wednesday and Friday we have long days, in which we have 9 lessons and school finishes at 4 o’clock. Every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturdays we have short days, in which we have only 6 lessons and finish at 1 o’clock. After lessons, we have two hours of activity time, when you can choose from a wide range of activities, including all the major sports, such as rugby and football, and also the minor sports such as basketball and tennis.

As a boarder( 寄宿者)，the quality of food is something I consider very important, and Merchiston has not let me down. The school kitchens are run by a professional food company, and the quality of food is very excellent and also they take the healthy diet very seriously: I remember once I was once asked to take more salad for my meal by a member of the kitchen staff(员工) for I didn’t have enough vegetables. This brings another point of being a boarder: you need to learn how to look after yourself and be responsible(负责) for yourself. One of the huge advantages of being a boarder is that we can have breakfast in the school, which means we don’t have to pull ourselves out of bed as early as the day pupils!

51. The passage mainly tells us about _______.

A. the author’s school life in the UK as a boarder.

B. the author’s opinion of the school life in the UK.

C. the differences in school life between China and UK.

D. the boarder life in a Britain middle school.

52. According to the second paragraph, we can learn that the author _________ .

A. has not enough time to study B. likes to play tennis and basketball

C. went to the school two months ago D. finishes school at 4 o’clock

53. How many lessons do the students have every week in this school?

A. 15 B. 45 C. 27 D. 18

54. The underlined words “let me down” in the last paragraph means _______.
