A
The alarm sounds. Students swing their backpack over their shoulder, board the school bus, make their way to their homeroom and the bell rings— school is back. But for more homes in America, school looks more like students waking up, making their way to the dining room or home office, setting up laptops and learning in the comfort of home.
Virtual(虚拟的)schooling, described as “a public school that offers only instruction in which students and teachers are separated by time and/or place, and interaction occurs via computers and/or telecommunications(电信)technologies”, has increased over the past decade. According to the National Education Policy Center, enrollments(注册人数)in virtual schools was 278,518 between the 2015 — 2016 school year and the 2016 — 2017 school year increased by 17,000.
For Arizona Virtual Academy, a full-time online public K-12 school, they use K12 Inc. curriculums. K12 Inc. serves students in all 50 states and more than 100 countries with digital learning platforms and technology, providing online education. “We always are improving our platforms and the technology that we use to make sure that we’re keeping up with the changing trends, not only with education but also with technology,” Dr. Kelly Van Sande said. Another piece of new technology they’ve rolled out is a new app where parents can find virtual schools available in their area.
Carrie Faulkner chose to enroll two of her children in Arizona Virtual Academy. She says they’ve done schooling online in Chicago, in California, at restaurants and on her cousin’s floor in Kansas. “It doesn’t matter whether he (her son) is on the couch, in his bed or at the kitchen table, he can do schooling wherever he wants to,” Faulkner said. “I wish they had it for me back when I was in school. That would have been awesome.”
1、Why does the author compare the two kinds of schooling in the first paragraph?
A．To attack real schooling.
B．To give an example of virtual schooling.

D．To describe vividly students’ going to school.
2、How many students attended virtual schools during the 2016 — 2017 school year?
A．295, 518 B．17, 000. C．278, 518. D．147, 759.
3、What can we infer about Arizona Virtual Academy?
A．They provide both online and offline education.
B．They’re intended for students in the United States.
C．Their new app lets people find schools worldwide.

Great changes have been taken place in my village. Ten years ago, the small and low houses of my village lie on the north of a lake. The villagers produced many waste. As a result, the lake was serious polluted. To the west of the village was a sandy field, where was the source of much dust.
Now the poor house have been replaced by green trees. However, the sandy field that the villagers used to plough has been covered of fruit trees. On the lake, now clean and clear, the villagers often spend their spare time fish.
In word, my village has become a green one.

第二节 书面表达（满分25分）
请阅读下面一篇短文，并按照要求用英语写一篇 150 词左右的文章。
In China, there’s growing awareness of people living with HIV/AIDS, and their right to receive respect and dignity. CCTV reporter Han Bin brings us one man’s story of how he lost three jobs due to his HIV-positive status.
34-year-old Ma Zhifa found out he was HIV-positive two years ago, since when his whole life has changed. He lost everything: job, income, marriage and confidence to live.
Ma Zhifa hopes society can find enough tolerance to give him a chance to work. Now his only support come from his daughter, who’s been taken away by her mother. And without an income, he can’t provide for his child.
The official number of HIV/AIDS patients in China is around one million, less than one percent of the population. But across the country, discrimination is common in medical treatment, the workplace and at school.
Ma Zhifa is determined to live a positive life. He hopes his openness may help start better treatment for others with similar experiences of discrimination.
When China released legislation that outlaws (宣告非法) discrimination against people with HIV/AIDS in 2004, it showed the determination of the government to remove the stigma (耻辱). Six years later, discrimination against people with HIV/AIDS was still widespread. Still, many believe that legal protection should be the base line for protecting those with HIV/AIDS, and should not give way to social prejudice.
