Dear Mr. and Mrs. Hurst,
I have returned to my home. How is everything
Thank you very much for looking after me during the exchange visit. You make me part of your family. I miss you so much.
There are a lot of valuable memories which will remain in mind for ever. We once bought plenty of food and made a big Chinese meal together. We also played baseball on the playground. What’s more, you organized a great number of activities for me so that I didn’t miss home or feel lonely. From these activities, I understand more about American culture and think about my own culture as well. After coming back home, I tell my classmates and my friends about my experience. They are all interested in it.
I hope you can come to China some day, and I will lead you to the places of interest in China.
Best wishes.
Yours,
Li Hua

Living in another country
My name is Brad Li. I’m here today to tell you about my experience as an exchange student in the United States last year.

As you know different countries have different customs. Also there are many gestures showing different meanings in many countries. Here are a few examples of gestures.
A fisherman in Britain will show the size of a fish he has caught by holding his two hands, palms (手掌) facing each other, the right distance apart in front of him. But the one from certain part of Africa will measure off the size along his left arm with his right hand. In Britain the gesture to show the number “one” is made by holding up the index finger (the second finger), but in Switzerland it is the thumb – the first finger which is held up. Some people point at objects with fingers, others by sticking out the lips. The gesture for “come here” is made in Britain with the index finger, which is held, pointing upwards, at eye level and bent towards the body; in Egypt the hand is held at arm’s length, palm downwards, and the fingers are then bent.
The difference between the movements is very important, and the meanings of the same gestures may be opposite in different countries. It may bring trouble to those who don’t know it.
1. What is this text mainly about
A. How to show a gesture in Egypt.
B. Different people in different countries.
C. Different gestures in different countries.
D. How to understand the gestures in Britain.
2. How will the Africans express the object’s size
A. Keep silent.
B. Take a string to show it.
C. Bring the object to the spot.
D. Measure off the size along his left arm with his right hand.
3. How do people point things
A. With fingers. B. By holding his two hands.
C. By sticking out the arms. D. By holding the index finger up.
4. What may the difference between the movements in different countries bring according to the text
A. Good luck. B. Problems. C. A new world. D. Happiness.

Thanksgiving Day is a public holiday in the USA and Canada when families have a large meal together to celebrate and thank for food, health and the families they’ve got. Now it becomes more and more popular among Chinese young people. But a survey made before Thanksgiving Day shows perhaps many Chinese don’t really understand the meaning of the holiday.
Two hundred students from universities in Henan took part in a survey. According to the survey, only 10% students remember their parents’ birthdays and 16 % said they had prepared birthday presents for their parents. “Since most of the students are from one-child families, they used to be the focus and careless of others,” one psychiatrist (心理学家) tried to explain the result.
As for the students’ birthdays, only 33% of the college students would like to celebrate their birthdays with their parents. “Many students chose to have a big birthday dinner with their friends or classmates. Of course there is nothing wrong with that. But everyone’s birthday is a day of suffering for his mother, so we should remember to thank our parents on that special day,” a girl student said.
Some students said after the survey, they suddenly realized how little they had done for their parents. How about you
5. What do Canadians often do on Thanksgiving Day
A. Eat with their family. B. Thank their family.
C. Prepare presents. D. Do a survey.
6. _________ students remember their parents’ birthdays in the survey.
A. 100. B. 33. C. 20. D. 10.
7. Most students may celebrate their birthdays with _________.
A. friends or classmates B. parents C. nobody D. relatives
8. What may the students do after the survey
A. Eat with their classmates on Thanksgiving Day.
B. Spend more time with their parents.
C. Buy presents for their relatives.
D. Thank their friends.
