Usually it takes university students 3 years to get their degree(学位) in the UK. But language students need 4 years. They usually spend the third year abroad — they go to a country where the language they are learning is spoken. They can either work or study there. In this way, they can put what they have learnt in class into practice.
During their year abroad, students get a completely new experience. Many try to find other students to live with and some live with host families.
They can not only learn the language, but also come to understand the culture, the people, and the traditions of the country. That is an important part of language learning.
Ellen Rothnie, a student of French, spent her year abroad in Paris, France. She taught English in a language school. "Teaching my own language makes me understand what works and what doesn't in language learning," Ellen said. "And my students are also my friends. They show me how people speak and live in the country. That's helpful in improving my French."
The year abroad is great fun but can also be very stressful(压力大的), because students have to build a life in a new country alone. But once the students settle into(适应) their new way of life, it becomes easier and many would describe their year abroad as one of the greatest experiences of their lives.
(　　)29.Language students in a UK university spend their 　　　　year abroad.
A. first B. second C. third D. fourth
(　　)30.The underlined word "That" refers to (指的是)"　　　　".
A. Learning the language of a country
B. Practising what one has learnt at university
C. Living with a host family in a foreign country
D. Understanding a country's culture, people and traditions
(　　)31.While in Paris, Ellen Rothnie 　　　　.
A. lived with her friends
B. studied in a university
C. lived with a host family
D. worked in a language school
(　　)32.Who helped Ellen Rothnie improve her French in Paris
A. Her teachers. B. Her students.
C. Her classmates. D. Her host family.
(　　)33.The writer may agree that 　　　　.
A. everyone should learn a foreign language
B. one year abroad is good for language students
C. more students need to go to Paris to learn French
D. university students should get more than one degree
C(2022·广东深圳坪山区期末)
Different countries have different customs. When you travel to other countries, please follow their customs, just as the saying goes, "　　　　　　　　　"
Very often people who travel to the United States forget to tip(给小费). It is usual to tip porters who help carry your bags, taxi drivers and waiters. Waiters expect to get a 15% tip on the cost of your meal. Taxi drivers expect the same amount.
In England, make sure to stand in line even if there are only two of you. It's important to respect lines there. It's a good idea to talk about the weather. It's a favourite topic of conversation for the British.
In Spain, it's a good idea to have a light meal in the afternoon if someone invites you for dinner. People have dinner very late and restaurants do not generally(通常) open until after 9 p.m.
In Arab(阿拉伯的) countries, men kiss one another on the cheek. Your host may welcome you with a kiss on both cheeks. It is polite of you to do the same.
In Japan, people usually give personal or business cards to each other when they meet for the first time. When a person gives you a card, don't put it into your pocket right away. The person expects you to read it.
Don't forget to be careful of your body language to express something in conversation. A kind of body language that is acceptable in one culture may be impolite in another.

A. Love me, love my dog.
