Well, to tell you the truth, it is really an eye-opening experience study here.In China, I had English classes five times a week since fifth grade. However, I didn’t know how different textbook Engli sh could be from everyday English until I came to Hotchkiss School, Conmecticut.When I first studied English, I was told to say, “I am fine.” when people say “How are you ?”But in the US,I found that people say, “I am good.” or “I am tired.”One day ,some one greeted me with “What’s up ?”It ,made me confused. I thought for a moment and then smiled because I didn’t know what to say.Since then, I have discovered more and more differences between Chinese and US cultures.To my surprise, US girls spend a lot of time in the burning sun to get a tan. However ,in China ,girls try every possible way to get theirskin paler, or “whiter.”I also surprised by how hard-working .US students are .In China, schoolwork is almost everything ,so we study hard and that’ it. B ut here,a “good” student gets good grades, does a lot for the public and plays sports or music.The kids here are so talented ,I am starting to be sorry that I gave up playing the piano at an early age and that I have never thought about sports.61.According to the writer, textbook English is _________everyday English.A. quite different fromB. the same asC. more difficult than62.What does the word “tan ”in the sixth paragraph mean in Chinese?A晒黑B晒白 C 能量63.A good US student spends his/her time ________.A. only in doing homeworkB. only on sports or musicC. on studies ,sports or music and public work64.Which of the following is NOT true?A.

Most people in Britain live in houses rather than flats, and many people own their homes.This means that they can make them individual（个体的）;they can paint them, and change them in any way they like. Most house have a garden, even if it is a very small one, and the garden is usually loved. The house and the garden are the private（私人的）space of the individual.People usually like to mark their space. Are you sitting now in your home or on a train?have you marked the space around yourself as your? If you are on the train you may put your coat or small bag on the seat beside you. If you share a flat you may have one corner or chair which is your own.Once I was travelling on a train to London. I was in a section for four people and there was a table between us .The man on the space onmy side of the table at all. I was angry. Maybe he thought that he owned the whole table. I had read a book about non-verbal communications o I took various papers out of my bag and put them on his briefcase! When I did this he stiffened and his eyes nearly popped(瞪出)out of his head. I had invaded(侵犯)his space! A few minutes later I took my papers off his case in order to read them. He immediately moved his case to his side of the table. Of course, it is possible that he just wanted to be helpful to me!If you are visiting another country you may feel that you don’t have any private space. Hotel rooms look much the same in every country in the world. All day long ,you share public spaces with other people. You see the local people in their private spaces and you feel lonely and “outside”. Local people can create their private spaces by talking about things you don’t know about .And you even feel that they like you to be outside them so that they will enjoy being inside even more! This is one of the difficulties of being a traveler! But if you understand it then it helps you .Haven’t you enjoyed being part of a group and “owning” a bit of space?41.The writer was angry as he was travelling on a train to London because______.A. he had no place to sitB. someone had invaded his “space”C. too many people shared a section with himD. some other people talked about things he didn’t know about42. “… you feel lonely and ‘outside’”in paragraph 4 means that_______.A. you are alone outside the houseB. you feel lonely because you travel on your ownC. you are alone and therefore you go outside to have some funD. you feel lonely and you don’t belong to that place or that group of people43.In Paragraph 4 ,the pronoun “them’refers to（所指）“___________”.A. public spacesB. private spacesC. local peopleD. other countries44.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A.

One day the topic turned to saying “I love you”. I was shocked to learn that not one of my students had said this to their mothers, nor had their mothers said it to them. “Does your mom love you?” “Of course ,”they answered.“How do you know ?”was my logical question. They responded that their mons cooked and always told them what they were doing wrong to show their caring. I was stunned .So mon’s cooking and criticzing read out as “I love you ”. “Then how do you say ‘I love you ’to her?” They agreed that getting good grades, followed by god jobs would be how they showed their love.I come from a culture where most people are expressive enough, so I repeated these queries in classes over time. Gradually, I began to get different response. Some of them had exchanged those sentiments with their moms.One of my favorite stories of change came from a girl. When she came home from university, her mother met her at the door and hugged（拥抱）her. This had never happened before, but her mom said, “Now that you have gone I have more time to myself. I noticedthat in some places mothers and children hug each other and I decided it was a good idea and that I would begin hugging you.”In my family we all say “I love you” a lot .While it is true that we often say the words without having great depth of feelings at that moment, it is almost like a blessing we give each other. Those three little words carry a world of meaning ,even when said as a greeting, but most especially if they are the last words we say to or hear from those we love.52.The foreign teacher_______.A. comes from AmericaB. is a young womanC. is expressive enoughD. knows much about China53.Chinese people prefer to show love by________.A. saying “I love you”B. cookingC. getting good gradesD. doing something helpful;54.In paragraph 4,what’s the real meaning of the mom’s hugging?A.
