Dear Wu Bin,
I’m getting really excited about your visit. I hope you are too. I must say, life is really different here. English people do some very strange things.
In the UK, you must drive on the left. I know you are too young to drive but you have to remember this when you cross the road. I nearly got run over (碾过) the other day. You know in China, if you want a taxi, you can just put your hand out and a taxi stops at once. Well, here you must go to a special place. There is a long line of people waiting.
Shopping is difficult on weekends. I can’t believe how early the shops close. It seems like you can’t buy anything after six o’clock in the evening.
You asked me about living in an English house. The most difficult thing is using knife and fork. I can use chopsticks if I want, but I want to do the same thing as other people. Something really surprised me the other day. My landlady (女房东), Mrs. Johnson hung up (悬挂) her washing in the kitchen! I couldn’t believe it. Mr. and Mrs. Johnson have a cat, a dog and two rabbits. Well can you imagine (想象), the other day, all four animals were running around in the kitchen.
Another thing, people drink cold water all the time and they drink tea with milk. They don’t have rice with every meal.
Life here is strange, but I’m enjoying it.
Lots of love and see you soon.
Li Ming

We may know that there are four basic periods for human beings to pass through when you enter and live in another country. This process helps you do with culture shock.
Culture shock begins with the “honeymoon period”. This is the time when you first arrive in a place where everything about the new culture is strange and exciting. You see new things, hear new sounds and language, eat new kinds of food. This period can last for quite a long time because you feel very happy.
Unluckily, the second period can be more difficult. After you have got used to your new life, you can become very tired and begin to miss your motherland, your family, your friends, your pets and so on. All the little problems in life seem to be much bigger and more worrying when you face them in a foreign country. This period can be very difficult and lead to moving backwards quickly.
The third period is called the “adjustment (调整) period”. This is when you begin to know that things are not so bad in the new country. Your sense of humor usually becomes stronger and you know you are becoming stronger by learning to take care of yourself in the new place. Things are still difficult but you are now a survivor.
The fourth period can be called “at ease at last”. Now you feel quite comfortable in your new place. You can do with most problems that you have. You may still have problems with language, but you know you are strong enough to do with them. At this time, you may feel a little uncomfortable if you go back to your motherland.
38．According to the passage, culture shock usually happens when you ________.
A．get married to a foreigner B．live in a big city
C．go to live in a foreign country D．meet foreigners in your motherland
39．During the first period of the process. you feel ________.
A．sad and lonely B．happy and excited C．angry but strong D．easy but uncomfortable
40．The fourth period can be regarded as a period of being ________.
A．relaxing B．worrying C．tiring D．adjustable
41．From the passage we can infer that ________.
A．living in another country is fun B．it’s boring to live in another country
C．knowing about culture shock is hard D．it’s not easy to deal with culture shock
D
Many expressions that we use in American English come from novels. Today we will look at some of them from Lewis Carroll’s famous novel “Alice in Wonderland” in detail.
The story is about a young girl falling down a rabbit hole. When she finally lands, she finds herself in a strange world and meets some strange characters.
The first character Alice meets is the White Rabbit, who runs past her and says some strange words. Alice runs after him, and that is where her adventures begin.
In English, chasing a white rabbit means chasing an impossible clue and finding yourself in a misleading situation.
Then, as she runs after the rabbit, she falls down the rabbit hole into Wonderland.
To fall down the rabbit hole can mean to enter a situation which makes people feel puzzled. However, usually we use this expression to mean we get interested in something to the point of distractions(分神). It often happens by accident and is about something not that meaningful.
Later in the story, Alice meets the March Hare and the Hatter at a crazy tea party. Hares have long been thought to behave excitedly in March, which is their mating（交配）season. Scientifically, this may not be true. But to be mad as a March Hare means that someone is completely mad, or crazy. The expression mad as a Hatter also means to be completely crazy. Of the two, mad as a Hatter is more common.
Near the end of the story, Alice meets the Queen of Hearts. A woman who is called a Queen of Hearts likes controlling others and always tries to control everything and everyone around her.
42．Which of the following situations best fits the expression “to fall down a rabbit hole”
A．When Jack was sitting in the study, he got bored with the homework and felt sleepy.
B．When Sue turned On the TV, she chose to watch her favourite programme as usual.
C．When Jim was looking for a sport book online, he lost himself in reports on superstars.
D．When Lily was thinking about how to solve a math problem, she came up with a good idea.
43．According to the passage, the expression “to be mad as a March Hare” .
A．describes how hares behave in March
B．shows hares’ characteristics in a funny way
C．is used more often than the expression mad as a Hatter
D．has the same meaning as the expression mad as a Hatter
44．Which of the following characters wants others to obey his or her orders in every situation
A．Alice. B．The March Hare. C．The Hatter. D．The Queen of Hearts.
45．The writer mainly wants to ________in this passage.
A．introduce a famous novel and its language style
B．introduce a famous writer Lewis Carroll and his novels
C．explain some English expressions from a famous novel
D．explain why many expressions in English come from novels

Dear Lucy,
I’m glad to tell you that we will have two new clubs this term. One is the Travelling Club and the other is DIY Club. But we can only choose one to join.
I would like to choose the Travelling Club because I am willing to learn more about travelling. As well, it can help me know a lot about different places of interest and unforgettable sights. The club is open every Thursday at the computer room. We can do some wonderful reading and watch plenty of interesting films. Besides, we can make many new friends and share our experience about travelling with them. Maybe we can get special ideas from other students. I can’t wait to join the club!
What’s your choice Will you choose the same club as I do
Yours,
