Latrice Brown was excited about starting her junior year.阅读理解答案

　　Latrice Brown was excited about starting her junior year. She had volunteered to take part in the Lincoln High School Friendship Program. As an upperclassman, she would be assigned a “freshman (新生) friend.” Her duties would include helping her friend get used to high school life by offering friendship. Latrice thought it was important to have someone with whom to talk and share concerns. She knew that the friendship program was likely to make the freshman year of high school a positive experience. On July 24 Latrice received a notice in the mail about the schedule of events for the freshman orientation (适应指导).
