When people travel abroad, they may get the anxiety and feelings of surprise and confusion (困惑) felt when they have to operate within a different cultural and social environment. Besides, maybe when they come back to their own country, they will meet the reverse (逆向) cultural shock. There is no doubt that people are experiencing cultural shock. So, what is cultural shock? And what causes cultural shock? We interviewed John Robb, Cristal and Jim about their feelings of facing cultural shock abroad.
John has been in China for 24 years. In his opinion, he thinks people wail a long time to make decisions in China. And in his culture, they usually make most decisions far in advance. So, that's a big difference.
Cris has been in Australia for 2 years. He thinks people from different countries speak different languages. And he usually speaks English with them. In learning, there are many people who are willing to communicate with him about different regional ( 地 域 的 ) cultures. Australians eat more meat and high-calorie foods. And some raw (生的) vegetables go with their diet.
Jim has been in Britain for 7 years. He liked that freedom very much at first in Britain And he traveled to a lot of places and met a lot of people. But over time he found he had to say goodbye to them. Therefore, he became sad little by little. After wandering for a long time, he really looked forward to finding a sense of belonging.
As John said, "Every culture does things differently. So, you have to learn the new ways." Facing differences, the most important thing is to make changes. After staying in China, John enriched his experience, learned to think about his future and wanted to open a new life. After studying in Britain, Jim became independent, sensible and learned many life skills.

May is a beautiful month full of sunshine and flowers. It is also the month when we show thanks to our mothers on Mother's Day.
In my family, Mother's Day celebration is different every year. Two years ago, I made breakfast for my mom and she still remembers all the dishes I cooked. Last year, I bought her a selfie stick (自拍杆) with the money that I made from selling some of my old books. She uses it all the time.
I wanted to do something special on this "quarantined" ( 隔 离 ) —— Mother's Day due to the coronavirus ( 新冠病毒) outbreak. In April, I started to search for different gift ideas on the Internet. Finally, I decided to make multiple cards by hand and make a box out of the cards. It took me a long time to make it. I then put a small bag of colorful chocolates in the box. The messages I wrote on the cards were some small favors I could do for my mom, such as washing dishes.
On the night before Mother's Day, I asked my mom to go to sleep early so that I could go into her room and put the present next to her bed. When she woke up, she was very excited about my gift and spent a lot of time looking at every tiny detail of the box.
My mom is my hero and she has sacrificed (牺牲) her career to take care of me. I am glad that there
is a special day in May for me to honor my mom and show her my thanks and love.
What did the writer buy for her mom on last Mother's Day?
A. dishes. B. selfie stick. C. chocolates. D. flowers.
Why were they quarantined on Mother's Day this year?
Because of the coronavirus outbreak.
Because of the sunshine and flowers this month.
Because of selling some of her old books.
Because of her mother's sacrifice.
Why did the writer ask her mom to go to sleep early on the night before Mother's Day?
Because her mother is a hero.
Because she wanted to wash dishes.
Because she would make a box out of cards.
Because it was convenient for her to put her present.
What is the best title for the text?
A. Mother's Day. B. A Box out of Cards.
C. May Love for Mom. D. My Hero.

Not long ago, Egypt marked the 150th anniversary of the opening of the Suez Canal. The canal connects the Mediterranean Sea to the Red Sea and the Indian Ocean. It helped speed world trade between the East and the West. But the man-made waterway has also helped speed the rise of other things, such as invasive (入侵的) non-native species (物种). Scientists say the invasive creatures have damaged the Mediterranean's environment and caused native species to disappear.
The number of non-native creatures has risen since the Suez Canal was widened in 2015. The "New Suez Canal" has raised concerns in Europe and brought disagreement from many Mediterranean countries. Bella Galil is an Israeli biologist who has studied the Mediterranean for over 30 years. She says much of the ecological (生态的) damage cannot be repaired. She said urgent action is needed to ease the effects of the invasive fish and other sea life.
Galil works at Tel Aviv University's Steinhardt Museum of Natural History. She noted that the widening and deepening of the Suez Canal has created a "moving aquarium" of species. These creatures could make coastal waters almost unusable for human beings. Galil believes the number of invasive species has reached 400. That is twice the number 30 years ago. She said this is a "historic example of the dangers of unintended consequences."
Israel is now dealing with huge numbers of poisonous ( 有毒的) jellyfish that affect coastal power
centers and keep people from visiting the seashore. Other poisonous species, such as the lionfish and silver-cheeked toadfish, are also appearing.
Galil said the problems of invasive species can be compared to those of climate change, pollution and over-fishing. She argues that the new species have caused a major "restructuring" of the environment. This has endangered native species.
Some experts have suggested that increasing salt levels in the canal itself could create a barrier ( 障
碍物) that would keep invasive species out.
What lesson can we learn from the effects of the Suez Canal?
A. Seeing is believing. B. Every coin has two sides.
C. Let nature take its course. D. Everyone makes mistakes.
What's the attitude of many Mediterranean countries towards the "New Suez Canal" ?
A. Uncaring. B. Unclear. C. Supportive. D. Against.
What is the ecological environment like after the Suez Canal reconstruction?
It is from bad to worse.
It remains the same.
It improves a great deal.
It has become a completely new one.
Why did Galil mention climate change, pollution and over-fishing in paragraph 5?
To add some background information.
To stress the harm of invasive species.
To solve the problem of invasive species.
To compare their similarities and differences.

Reasons Why Reading Old Books Is Good
There are many people who prefer new books to old ones, because they think that new books are better. 36 .
They have stood the test of time. 37 . According to C. S. Lewis, as a writer, he would rather want a reader to read an old book than a new one as the new one is still under test and the reader is amateur (业余的) to judge it.
38 . Old books usually cost less in comparison, and at times are available even for free at
book stores, thrift shops (旧货店), or book fairs.
They help you know your past. Classic novels teach a lot about a particular previous time in history while we are enjoying present times.
Their quality is better. The title is self-explanatory. 39 . If a book is being read even 50 years after it was published, then it's a classic, and surely good.
They don't discriminate (歧视) against age. Old books are for everyone and not for a particular age group. 40 . Cinderella can still be your favorite nighttime read as an adult.
They smell so good. The smell of old books is just too good. Don't you just love the smell as you bury your nose into the pages of an old classic?
They are cheaper.
They are easy to get.
What makes a book a classic?
What is a book affecting you most?
You need not be a child to enjoy the classics written for kids.
But the fact is that the opposite is true, more often than not.
Ideas come and go, but only the best ideas are the ones that stand out.

"You've been under arrest for ten minutes, Bob. Are you 52 with me quietly? That is
53 . But first here is something I was asked to 54 you. You may read it here at the window. It's from a 55 named Wells."
Bryan opened the little piece of paper. He began to 56 as he read.
"Bob, I was at the place 57 . I saw the face of the man wanted as a (n) 58 by Chicago policemen. I didn't want to 59 you myself. So I went and got another policeman and 60 him to do the job. JIMMY."

Sharks are known for being dangerous and eating whatever they want. That’s in the water. On land, Americans use the word “shark” in a number of expressions. It’s no surprise that they all suggest some form of danger.
The word shark can be used to describe someone who is tricky and uses other people. An example of this is the term “loan shark”. Loan sharks are people, not fish. They loan money at very high interest rates to others who need money badly.
If you are “swimming with sharks” in the ocean, you might be in serious danger. And if you are swimming with sharks on land, you are spending time with the wrong kind of people.
If the “sharks are circling”, then someone is in danger and their enemies are preparing for the kill. Let’s say you are at work and experience bad luck on a project or two. You are in danger of losing your job. Your co-workers may “smell blood in the water”. You could say the sharks have started circling. In this example, your mistakes are the blood and the sharks are your co-workers.
