1．It is hard to say the first day of school in the United States because when the first day of school is and what happens on the first day of school usually are different by districts （地區(qū)）．
The first day of school for many school districts in different states is on the day after the first Monday in September.In some other school districts，school begins in mid-to-late August.For example，the Denver，Colorado schools go back in mid-August and schools in Cleveland，Ohio start back usually one week before the first Monday in September.The Boston，Chicago，New York City and San Diego schools start back on the Tuesday or Wednesday after the first Monday in September.
Schools in Cleveland，Ohio used to start the school year on the day after the first Monday in September，but in the 1976—1977 and 1977—1978 academic years，the school year was affected by several bad snowstorms，extremely cold.In the 1978—1979 school year，the Ohio Department of Education moved the start of the year to late August，one week before the first Monday in September.This went into effect in the 1980—1981 school year.
In most school districts in Utah，the school year starts between August 25 and August 30，and goes until the last week of May or the first week in June next year.
In American high schools，the freshmen class usually goes back one or two days before the rest of the school body for an orientation （迎新） period.An orientation period helps the freshmen get familiar with their new school，its rules，and surroundings.
In some schools，the freshmen classes have their photographs taken for identification purposes.Some high schools have tried to make the first week of school fun for incoming freshmen.

3．We don't always get a second chance to achieve our dreams．But some people are lucky，like Matthew McConaughey．Once almost unknown，the actor has recently found himself back on the list of the best actors in Hollywood．His new movie Interstellar is just another sign that his career reinvention has been an incredible success．"The film relies on McConaughey's performance to hold together the emotional story of a father and his daughter against the background of space travel and the end of the world，"Forbes commented．
But only years ago，the Texas native was often the butt of jokes（笑柄）about being too handsome．In 1993，after meeting with director Richard Linklater，McConaughey starred in Dazed and Confused．And a Hollywood career was born，mostly in romantic comedies．For a long time，the whole world believed McConaughey was just a handsome guy with comic talent．
But McConaughey stopped starring in that type of movie，and began to use his looks differently．Slowly he built up his reputation as a serious actor．In 2013，McConaughey was offered to play an AIDS activist in Dallas Buyers Club．The role saw the normally muscular actor losing 50 pounds in order to appear sick．His performance won him an Oscar for Best Actor．
The actor gave thanks to someone he has always looked up to as a hero during his Oscar acceptance speech．When he was 15，the actor said，he decided that his hero would be himself in 10 years．But 10 years later，he pushed the deadline ahead another decade．Then 10 years later，another decade．"My hero's always 10 years away，"he said．"I'm never going to attain that．That keeps me with somebody to keep on chasing．"Or perhaps constantly chasing the chance to be his own hero has given him a second chance to follow his dreams．
（1）Why was McConaughey often the butt of jokes in his early career？
A．He was limited to handsome roles．
B．He was unknown to the audience．
C．He played in romantic comedies．
D．He was handsome and emotional．

A．A caring father．
B．An AIDS activist．
C．A serious buyer．
