Applying (申请) to colleges in America     One of a high school student"s most important tasks is to get into college. Applying to colleges usually begins in a student"s last year at high school, but preparations bgein much earlier.     Each high school has at least one special college counselor (顾问) to help students apply to colleges. In public schools, there are about five hundred to a thousand students who have a counselor, but in private schools, there are usually no more than forty students to every counselor.     Starting in ninth grade, students have to work hard to get good grades. Colleges lookat all the student"s high school grades, so they are very important. Sometimes, a student can be rejected (拒绝) by a college just because of poor grades a few years ago.     In eleventh grade, students begin to take many national tests. Most tests happen a few times a year, and students can take them as many times as thay want. Colleges only ask for scores from the SAT test (学业水平测试), which have three subjects-math, reading and writing. However, many students choose to take other tests as well. These other tests help to show colleges how good a student is.     In class, students try to behave well for the teachers. Most colleges ask students to have two recommendation letters (推荐信) from two teachers. Because of this, it is important for students to have teachers who like them.     Besides work in the classroom, colleges also think about what the student does outside of school. Students can join the school and, or write for the school newspaper. Others play on school sports teams. There are many things for everyone to do, and colleges think it is important to accept students who do things other than school work.     After working for so many years, students sendapplication to colleges in the middle of their last year of high school. A few months later, colleges mail their decisions out.

Some teenagers think that newspapers are boring and only for adults. But that"s not true. There are many interesting stories in the paper. You just need to make clear what you are looking at. "I spend about half an hour reading newspapers every day," said 15-year-old Gao Ming from Beijing. "I"m interested in things happening at school." School news is just one kind of news story in newspapers. There"s also world news: from international problems to pop stars.      Read the newspaper carefully, we"ll find different types of articles on the pages:      News stories-these stories are about events. Reporters try to show all points of a story to help readers understand what happened. Reporters try to speak to as many people as possible. They also use pictures and numbers to show the readers that the stories are true. The newspaper Teenagers has lots of news stories on the news page and front page. When we read them, we learn more about the facts, not the writers" ideas.      Opinion writing-opinion writing is usually about something happening right now. But it isn"t just facts. Here writers add their own opinions to the news. Writers pick only the facts that help back up their ideas. They make readers believe that they are telling the truth. This is usually the kind of story that gets people thinking. Go to "Speak Out" on Page Two for an example of opinion writing in Teenagers.      Advertisement-Don"t get happy too early when you read them. Those sweet words and lovely pictures are just ways to get us interested in their products! People have to pay to put advertisements in newspapers!

Have you ever seen a horse with toes (脚趾)? Millions of years ago, horses had many toes. They had four toes on each front foot. They had three toes on each back foot. The horses were smaller than cats.     These small horses lived in the forest. Their many toes helped the horses run over the soft wet ground.      It was very hot in the forest. But the weather changed. It became cold. Many trees couldn"t live in cold weather. The trees died and fell. Open field took the place of (代替) forests.
