Question

In Germany there are different kinds of high schools.Some prepare students for workers, others prepare them for college. All schools are great places for making friends and learning German.
Short days
Most high schools in Germany begin at about 8:00 a.m. and end at 3:30 p.m. This means your morning will be busy with classes. You will have time to do homework and take part in private(私人的) clubs after school.
Formal setting
In Germany, teachers and students’ relationship is more formal than you might be used to. Teachers are respected and students must use the formal “Sie(德語：您)” when talking to teachers.
Getting to school
Most students take public transport to school or ride a bicycle. Some ares have school buses. It is not common for parents to drive students to school.
Private clubs
In many countries, schools offer official sports and after-school activities. This is less common in Germany. After-school activities are usually organized through private clubs. There are clubs for things like soccer, dance, chair, theatre and almost everything else. Once you are in Germany, ask around at school and talk to other students to find out what private clubs are in your area and meet your interests.
Different states, different schools
Each of Germany’s 16 states has its own slightly different school systems. The school system in Brandenburg will be a little different from the system in Bavaria for example. Where you live, your knowledge level and your age will decide what school you can attend.

Answer 1

【小題1】B
【小題2】A
【小題3】D
【小題4】C

解析1.       Ｂ　細節題。根據Most students take public transport to school or ride a bicycle. Some are have school buses可知提到了公共交通，單車及校車，故Ｂ不是很常見，由下文的It is not common for parents to drive students to school也可知道是Ｂ。
2.       Ａ　猜測詞義題。從下文students must use the formal “Sie(德語：您)” when talking to teachers可知學生對老師講話時必須用正式用語 “您”，故學生對老師很尊敬，選Ａ。
3.       Ｄ　從Some prepare students for workers, others prepare them for college可知有的準備當工人，有的準備上大學，故Ａ錯；Ｂ答案文章沒有講到；文章提到了課后活動，但沒說是上午8點到下午3點30，而是說的上課的時間，故Ｃ錯；根據Once you are in Germany, ask around at school and talk to other students to find out what private clubs are in your area and meet your interests可知學生可以根據自己的興趣來選擇私人俱樂部，故Ｄ正確。
4.       Ｃ　主旨題。全文主要講的是德國中學的情況，包括學校生活，上學方式，私人俱樂部等，故選Ｃ。而Ａ,Ｂ,Ｄ只是文章的一個方面。
