I’m having a great time on my exchange program in France. I was 1 nervous before I arrived here, but there was no reason to be. My host family is really nice.
They do their best 2 me feel at home. The grandmother has 3 teenage granddaughter about my age. She is really kind. She always 4 to me in French to help me practise. And you wouldn’t believe how 5 my French has improved! I enjoy 6 French very much now. I still make lots of mistakes, 7 it doesn’t worry me like it used to.
My 8 challenge is learning how to behave(表现) at the dinner table. As you can imagine, things are really 9 from the way they are at home. For example, you 10 put your bread on your plate. You should put 11 on the table! I thought that was pretty strange at first, but now I’m used to it. You shouldn’t eat 12 with your hands except bread, not even fruit! You have to cut it up and eat it 13 a fork. Another thing is that it is not polite to say you’re full. 14 you don’t want any more food, you should just say, “It was delicious.” Also, it’s not polite to put your hands under the table. You should always 15 your hands, but not your elbows(肘部), on the table.
I have to say, I find it difficult to remember everything, but I’m slowly getting used to it. I don’t find French customs so strange any more.

A
We always want to prepare ourselves to the changes we may face when we go to a different country. Well, I have to say that for me, even after living in the US for one year and a half, I am still not used to the changes of weather, or how to manage my money well. There are many things that can give us culture shocks(冲击), but we ourselves can make it a big shock or a small one.
I know that changing schools was a big thing for me. It helped me to be stronger and open towards meeting new people. Sometimes it feels like everybody is already in a group. This makes it harder for someone else to go in. But, it is not that hard. Actually many people know that you are from another country. They feel curious(好奇的) about your “history”, and would often think you are a different person from them.
Another thing that can be a shock to me is the sudden change of weather. During the last few days, there was an ice storm. It was the biggest one in 15 years in Missouri. It was raining ice, really, and you could hear sounds outside the window like little pieces of stones hitting it — of course it was the ice. It started accumulating so heavily that the school had to close down for two days, and it got worse when it started snowing after the ice storm.
As international students, life may be difficult sometimes, but anyone can overcome（克服）it and make studying in another country a great experience.
26. Changing schools _______.
A. was just a small thing for the writer

28. What is the main idea of this article

B. The writer exercised a lot during the ice storm and became stronger.
C. Students from other countries are curious about American history.
D. Studying in another country is cool though there are difficulties.

This year, about one hundred teenagers from all over China will spend one year in American homes. They will attend schools and meet teenagers in the U.S., and have a new understanding of America. At the same time, about one hundred American teenagers will come to China to learn Chinese and get a new understanding of China.
A 15-year-old exchange student, Fred, spent last year in China with Li Hua’s family. In turn, Li Hua spent a year in Fred’s home in America.
Fred knew little Chinese when he arrived, but after two months’ study, the language began to come to him. School was completely different from what he had expected — much harder. Students stood up respectfully(尊敬地) when the teacher entered the classroom. They took fourteen subjects instead of six in the United States. There were almost no outside activities.
Family life, too, was different. The father’s word was law, and all activities were around the whole family rather than individuals(个人).
“Back home, you pick up some friends in a car and go out and have a good time. But in China, you walk home and you have to finish your homework first.”
At the same time, in America, Li Hua, a friendly Chinese boy, was also forming his idea. “I suppose I should criticize(批评) American schools,” he says. “It is much too easy by our level. But I have to say that I like it very much. In China we do nothing but study. Here we take part in many outside activities.”
29．What’s the most important purpose of exchange students in the other country
A．To attend schools. B．To learn a new language.
C．To live with the host family. D．To get a new understanding of that country.

C．There wasn’t any outside activities in the U.S. but there were a few in China.
D．There wasn’t any outside activities in China but there were a few in the U.S.
31．According to the passage, we know ________
A．Li Hua didn’t like American schools.
B．Fred knew much Chinese when he arrived.
C．Chinese students take fourteen subjects at school.
D．Students in the U.S. have to finish homework first after getting home.
32．What does the passage mainly talk about
A．Fred’s life in China. B．Li Hua’s school life in America.
C．How people learn from other countries. D．The differences in education between the two countries.

During my first two weeks at the University of California(UC) in Berkeley, I experienced a lot of things. Let me tell you some of them.
But first, let me give advice to other foreign students who plan to study in the United States. Check the weather before coming! I was very sure that California was sunny all year around, so I left all my jackets and sweaters in Paris. However, it rained almost every day during the first week in Berkeley.
I have to say that I quickly forgot these unlucky things. Everything in Berkeley is so easy compared to Paris. For example, in only 24 hours I bought a mobile phone and found a flat to live in. What’s more, almost all the shops are open on Sunday, which is very convenient for me.
The first thing that surprised me is that students may come late to class. They freely enter and leave the classroom many times during class. In France, students respect the teacher’s lesson, so they are never late and they leave the classroom only at the end of the class.
The local people in California are very nice and open. However, the way of greeting in California is different from that in France. I shake(握手) my friends’ hands every day in France. During my second day at Berkeley, I shook the hand of one of my classmates whom I had met the day before and he told me “I think we already met!”
Another funny story happened during the first party I attended: A girl that I met before came to hug me. I thought she wanted to kiss me like we usually do in France to say hello. So I kissed her and she felt a little bit embarrassed(尴尬的).
I live a great experience at present, and I would just encourage any student to become a member in a program at UC, Berkeley.
33 What does the writer mainly want to tell us
A. His experience at UC, Berkeley.
B. The life of People in California.
C. His advice on studying in foreign countries.
D. The difference in attending a class.
34.According to the writer, before students study in America, they should _______.
A. find a flat to live in B. leave their warm clothes at home
C. check the local weather D. prepare a phone as early as possible
35.When the writer’s classmate said “I think we already met!”, he meant _______.
A. he and the writer had known each other in France
B. Americans needn’t shake hands when they met again
C. he didn’t like to shake hands with others
D. the writer had forgotten about their last meeting
36. Which of the following is right according to the passage
A. California is sunny all year around.
B. It is difficult to find a shop open on Sunday in California.
C. Students in California respect the teacher’s lesson and are never late.
D. In France, people usually say hello by kissing each other.

Family life, too, was different. The father’s word was law, and all activities were around the whole family rather than individuals(个人).
“Back home, you pick up some friends in a car and go out and have a good time. But in China, you walk home and you have to finish your homework first.”
At the same time, in America, Li Hua, a friendly Chinese boy, was also forming his idea. “I suppose I should criticize(批评) American schools,” he says. “It is much too easy by our level. But I have to say that I like it very much. In China we do nothing but study. Here we take part in many outside activities.”
29．What’s the most important purpose of exchange students in the other country
A．To attend schools. B．To learn a new language.
C．To live with the host family. D．To get a new understanding of that country.
30．What was the difference about outdoor activities between the two countries
A．There were almost no outside activities in the U.S. but there were many in China.
B．There were almost no outside activities in China but there were many in the U.S.
C．There wasn’t any outside activities in the U.S. but there were a few in China.
D．There wasn’t any outside activities in China but there were a few in the U.S.
31．According to the passage, we know ________
A．Li Hua didn’t like American schools.
B．Fred knew much Chinese when he arrived.
C．Chinese students take fourteen subjects at school.
D．Students in the U.S. have to finish homework first after getting home.
32．What does the passage mainly talk about

During my first two weeks at the University of California(UC) in Berkeley, I experienced a lot of things. Let me tell you some of them.
But first, let me give advice to other foreign students who plan to study in the United States. Check the weather before coming! I was very sure that California was sunny all year around, so I left all my jackets and sweaters in Paris. However, it rained almost every day during the first week in Berkeley.
I have to say that I quickly forgot these unlucky things. Everything in Berkeley is so easy compared to Paris. For example, in only 24 hours I bought a mobile phone and found a flat to live in. What’s more, almost all the shops are open on Sunday, which is very convenient for me.
The first thing that surprised me is that students may come late to class. They freely enter and leave the classroom many times during class. In France, students respect the teacher’s lesson, so they are never late and they leave the classroom only at the end of the class.
The local people in California are very nice and open. However, the way of greeting in California is different from that in France. I shake(握手) my friends’ hands every day in France. During my second day at Berkeley, I shook the hand of one of my classmates whom I had met the day before and he told me “I think we already met!”
Another funny story happened during the first party I attended: A girl that I met before came to hug me. I thought she wanted to kiss me like we usually do in France to say hello. So I kissed her and she felt a little bit embarrassed(尴尬的).
I live a great experience at present, and I would just encourage any student to become a member in a program at UC, Berkeley.
33 What does the writer mainly want to tell us
A. His experience at UC, Berkeley.
B. The life of People in California.
C. His advice on studying in foreign countries.
D. The difference in attending a class.
34.According to the writer, before students study in America, they should _______.
A. find a flat to live in B. leave their warm clothes at home
C. check the local weather D. prepare a phone as early as possible
35.When the writer’s classmate said “I think we already met!”, he meant _______.
A. he and the writer had known each other in France
B. Americans needn’t shake hands when they met again
C. he didn’t like to shake hands with others
D. the writer had forgotten about their last meeting
36. Which of the following is right according to the passage
A. California is sunny all year around.
B. It is difficult to find a shop open on Sunday in California.
C. Students in California respect the teacher’s lesson and are never late.
D. In France, people usually say hello by kissing each other.

36.D 推理判断题。A girl that I met before came to hug me. I thought she wanted to kiss me like we usually do in France to say hello. 我以前遇到的一个女孩来拥抱我。我以为她想吻我，就像我们通常在法国打招呼一样。可以推断D正确。
