(Xinhua News) What kind of vehicle(交通工具) will you choose when travelling between provinces? Many people may like travelling by train because it is safer and cheaper. Now the high-speed railways have connected eastern and western China as well as the south and the north.
A new high-speed railway opened on Sept. 10th, 2016. It connects Zhengzhou in Henan Province with
Xuzhou in Jiangsu Province. With this railway, China’s high-speed railway are over 20,000 kilometers long. It is the world’s longest and makes up 60 percent of the world’s total high-speed railway lines. Besides length, China also does better in speed.

“The high-speed railways not only bridge the distance(距离), but connect people, information and goods.” said Huang Xin, an official from the China Railway Corp.
Yet, China’s building of high-speed railways is still going on. China plans to have 38,000 kilometers of high-speed railways by 2025.

American schools are different from those in China. In America, at the beginning of the term, students must choose their courses and teachers first. While in China, students usually have no chances to choose their courses and teachers.
Selecting(选择) is very important for students in America. So at the first term, don’t select too many courses, or you’ll feel very nervous and it may influence your study. Then you have to ask for some teaching plans. There is some information about subjects, time planning, marks and textbooks. At the same time, you must choose the teachers. Different teachers have different teaching methods. If the teacher is called “killer” by the last grade, many students will give up choosing him. Because this kind of teacher will leave too much homework, too many exams and give too low grades.
There is another thing after you select the course and the teacher. How to buy textbooks makes each student feel hard. The textbooks in America are very expensive. In order to save money, many students buy some used textbooks, and some students usually borrow textbooks from the school library. You must get enough ready before class. In class, discussing is very important. The teacher encourages students to ask questions or show their ideas. They don’t usually ask you to sit well. Instead they allow you to sit or stand everywhere you like. They don’t give you much homework to do. You can learn some knowledge and do exercises by yourself. So in American schools, you must do almost all things yourself. 34.American students should choose ______ before they have classes. A. textbooks B. courses and teachers C. classes D. seats
35. You’d better not select too many courses at the first term because _______. A. you may get lower grades B. there is not enough time C. teachers always give too much homework D. some subjects are too difficult
36. Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the passage? A. The textbooks are always very expensive in America.
B. Some students borrow textbooks from the school library to save money. C. The teacher encourages students to discuss in class. D. Students must sit their own seats in class. 37. What’s the best title of the passage? A. The Wonderful American Class
B. The Difference Between American schools and Chinese
