After finishing my teaching for a school year,I thought that I should go back to Montreal,Quebec,my hometown for a visit. My main goal was to relax in preparation for the challenges of my retirement in the coming year.
Through my stay in Montreal,I met lots of Chinese who are struggling to succeed and then lead a better life in Canada. Some travelled thousands of miles to get knowledge. When I spoke with some of them about the major barrier they had to face after they arrived in Canada, they all talked about the two official languages of Canada. But I was impressed by their ability to express their ideas while switching between English and French.
Almost all of those people said they often felt homesick. They miss their families and friends. Though Montreal has lots of Chinese restaurants,they long for a home-cooked meal.
I met some tourists who were trying to realize their childhood dreams of experiencing the life in a developed country. When I asked them if Montreal had lived up to their expectations they hesitated. They said that reality never agrees with fantasies. However, they were glad to have the opportunity to visit Montreal and didn’t regret taking the trip.
Not all the Chinese people I met were happy. I once met a young lady who met with a gentleman through the Internet. However, to her disappointment, he disappeared after he promised to marry her in Montreal.
I was served by another Chinese person who could not handle the challenges of studying in an English environment and ended up working in a restaurant with minimum pay.
Exploring different parts of the world,without any doubt,is an enriching experience. However, one should be realistic when it comes to leaving his hometown to set up a new life in a foreign country. One should take the time to examine the advantages and the shortcomings of the venture before they decide to chase an uncertain dream of achieving success or leading a better life.
9. The writer went to her hometown to .
A. meet her old friends
B. prepare for her retirement life
C. go on with her teaching
D. study a new language
10. The main barrier for some Chinese to get knowledge in Canada is .
A. language B. homesickness C. food D. income
11. The writer thinks that .
A. people should think carefully before chasing the dreams abroad
B. the trip to Montreal is a good chance for people to study
C. overseas Chinese feel disappointed at their life in Canada
D. overseas Chinese are good at communication in Canada
12. What is the best title for the passage?
A. Improving Life Skills in Canada
B. Exploring Different Parts of Canada
C. Struggling for a Better Life in Canada
D, Going to Canada-Your Ideal Destination

There are a few tips old people should keep in mind while traveling during the long weekend. Consider these tips to keep your travelling stress-free.
Plan ahead.
Get to know your destination ahead of time. Find out the weather for the weekend and choose some fun places to go with loved ones. You also can pack the necessary items like an umbrella. If you need a wheelchair or other devices,inform the place you’re staying ahead of time.
13
Let your doctor know about your travel plans. He may want to discuss medications or dietary changes and offer sound medical advice.
14
The old should always think about any medicine they take daily. Bring enough medicine to last you the entire weekend. Pack your medications in your carry-on if you’re flying. That way,if there are travel delays, you’ll be prepared. Don’t leave your medications exposed in your room while you’re away. Always place them in a safe spot out of harm’s reach.
Avoid showing flashy items.
Keep your jewelry at home while you’re travelling or tuck it in a hidden spot. If you’re staying in a hotel,use the room safe to hold valuables such as wallets while you’re gone. Avoid placing the “clean my room” sign on the door. If you are on the first floor always keep windows locked to avoid break-ins.
