Ⅰ. 阅读理解 During my first two weeks at the University of California, Berkeley, I experienced some unexpected, funny, and sometimes embarrassing(令人尴尬的) situations. Allow me to share some with you. 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. It was a huge mistake! It rained almost every day during the first week in Berkeley. I have to say that I quickly forgot these unlucky events. Life in Berkeley is very pleasant and everything is so easy compared to Paris. For example, in only 24 hours I bought a mobile phone and made the lease(租约) agreement for a flat. What’s more, almost all the shops are open on Sunday, which is very practical 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 in general very nice, open and active. However, I am not totally used to their habits yet. Indeed, I was used to shaking 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 seemed a little bit embarrassed. I live a great experience at present, and I would just encourage any student to become a member in a program at UC, Berkeley. ( )1. According to the writer’s advice, before students study in America, they should _______. A. make a lease agreement for a flat B. leave their warm clothes at home C. pay attention to the local weather D. prepare a phone as early as possible ( )2. 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 was not used to shaking hands with others D. the writer had forgotten about their last meeting ( )3. What does the writer mainly want to tell us A. His experience at UC, Berkeley. B. The relationship between classmates. C. His advice on studying abroad. D. The difference in attending a class.
