American schools are quite different from those in China. In America, at the beginning of the term, students must select (挑选) their subjects and teachers first.

Selecting is very important for your marks in America. So at the first term, don’t select too many subjects, or you’ll feel very nervous and tired. Then you have to ask for some teaching plans. There is some information about subjects, time arranging, 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 subjects and teachers. How to buy textbooks makes each student feel hard. The textbooks in America are very expensive. Each one is about $30–50. In order to save money, many students buy some used textbooks, and some students usually borrow textbooks from the school library.

In class, discussing is very important. The teacher encourages you to ask questions or show your own opinions. They don’t usually ask you to sit well. Instead they allow you to sit or stand anywhere you like.

【解析】

这篇短文给我们介绍了美国的学校和*的学校很多不一样的地方，如在学期初，学生们可以选择他们要学习的科目和老师；美国的教材非常贵，所以很多学生都是买用过的书，或者从图书馆借书；在美国的课堂上，老师鼓励学生表达自己的观点，而且学生们在教室也没有固定的座位，你可以站在或坐在任何你喜欢的地方。

36.根据第一段第二句话In America, at the beginning of the term, students must select (挑选) their subjects and teachers first.可知，在学期初，学生们必须先挑选他们的科目和老师。由此可知这里应填Subjects and teachers/ Teachers and subjects。

37.根据短文第二段第二句话So at the first term, don’t select too many subjects, or you’ll feel very nervous and tired.可知，如果你选择了太多的科目，你会感到很紧张、很累。因此这里应填nervous and tired。

38.根据短文第二段中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.可知，如果这个老师被称作“杀手”，很多学生就不会选择他。由此可知这里应填killer。

39.根据短文第二段中The textbooks in America are very expensive. Each one is about $30–50. In order to save money, many students buy some used textbooks可知，很多学生买用过的书是为了省钱，因为美国的教材很贵。由此可知应填to save money。

40.根据短文第三段中They don’t usually ask you to sit well. Instead they allow you to sit or stand anywhere you like.可知，在课堂上，老师通常不会让你坐好，你可以坐在或站在你喜欢的任何地方。空前instead of意为“代替…”，后跟名词或者动名词形式，因此这里应填sitting well。
