“Homestay is a form of study—abroad program. It allows the visitor to stay with a local family to better understand the local lifestyle. It also helps to improve the visitor’s language ability. If you wish to learn more about foreign cultures or to get foreign experience, you should join this kind of holiday.【1】”. Said a teacher during a school meeting last term.

After this meeting, 【2】_. At last, I had such a chance to go on such a holiday with some of my schoolmates last month. We went to London, a place where I had wanted to go since years ago.

After we got to London, we went to stay with different families. I was lucky that my host family (寄宿家庭)was a white couple who had a daughter about my age. 【3】_. They were interested in me and I learnt a lot of things from then on.

【4】. After breakfast, a local teacher would come to take us in his car. Then we would have classes or go on a sight—seeing trip to different places of interest like Big Ben. London Bridge, and Bockingham Palace. We would go back to our own homes after the activities.

The holiday was a valuable experience for me. I enjoyed every minute of it.【5】. Three weeks later, we had to leave “home” for Hong Kong.

24、“Where is Papa going with that ax (斧子)?” said Fern to her mother as they were setting the table for breakfast.

“Out to the pig house,” replied Mrs. Arable. “Some pigs were born last night.” “I don’t see why he needs an ax,” continued Fern, who was only eight.

“Well,” said her mother, “one of the pigs is a runt (发育不良的小动物). It’s very small and weak, you’re your father has decided to do away with it.”

“Do away with it?” shouted Fern. “You mean kill it?” “Don’t shout, Fern!” she said. “Your father is right. The pig would probably die anyway.”

Fern pushed a chair out of the way and ran outdoors. The grass was wet and the earth smelled springtime. Fern’s shoes were wetting by the time she caught up with her father.

“Please don’t kill it! It’s unfair,” she said. Mr. Arable stopped. “Fern,” he said gently, “you will have to learn to control yourself.”

“This is a matter of life and death, and you talk about controlling myself.” Tears ran down her cheeks and she took hold of the ax and tried to pull it out of her father’s hand.

“Fern,” said Mr. Arable, “I know more about raising a group of pigs than you do. A weak pig makes trouble.” “But it’s unfair,” cried Fern. “The pig couldn’t help being born small. If I had been very small at birth, would you have killed me?”

Mr. Arable smiled. “Certainly not,” he said, looking down at his daughter with love. “But this is different. It’s a pig.”

“There is no difference,” replied Fern.” The pig couldn’t help being born small, could it? If I had been very small at birth, would you have killed me?”

Mr. Arable smiled “Of course not,” he said, looking down at his daughter with love. “But this is different. A little girl is one thing, a little runty pig is another.”

“I see no difference,” replied Fem, still hanging on to the ax. “This is the most terrible case of injustice(不公正) I ever heard of.”

A strange look came over John Arable’s face. He seemed almost ready to cry himself.

“All right,” he said. You go back to the house and I will bring the runt when I come in. I’ll let you start it on a bottle, like a baby. Then you’ll see what trouble a pig can be.”

25、What happens when five Chinese teachers take over a British classroom full of teenagers? The experimental program was designed to test how 50 students ages 13 and 14 at the Bohunt School in Hampshire would deal with a completely Chinese teaching method. With long school days and tough rules, it’s considered to be "strict" to Westerners.

It took the BBC six months to choose suitable Chinese teachers. They had to be English, math, science or social science teachers with more than five years teaching experience in China. They also had to be able to teach in English. Though language was not a problem for the Chinese teachers, they weren't used to the difference between Chinese and British students. Li Aiyun from the Nanjing Foreign Language School told British media that when she handed out homework sheets, she expected the students to concentrate on their homework. "But when I walked in the classroom, some students were chatting, some students were eating, somebody was even putting make-up on her face. I had to control myself, or I would be crazy. About half of them tried their best to follow me. And the other half ? Who knows what they were doing?" she said.

While Rosie Lunskey, 15, told BBC interviewers that she found it difficult to get used to the Chinese teachers. "Acting like robots was the right way to go. I'm used to speaking my mind in class, giving ideas, often working in groups to develop my skills and improve my knowledge. But a lot of the time in the experiment, the only thing I felt I was learning was how to copy notes really fast and listen to the teacher, "she complained.

【1】How many Chinese teachers did BBC choose?

A. 4 B. 5 C.6   D. 8

【2】They didn’t choose _______________teachers.

A. Science   B. English C. Math D. Chinese

【3】What doe s the underlined word “concentrate” mean in Chinese?

A.浓缩 B. 专注 C. 限制   D. 批注

【4】Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?

A. The students’ age is between 13 and 14.

B. Some students were eating when Li Aiyun entered the classroom.

C. Rosie Lunskey liked the Chinese teaching methods very much.

D. The teachers can all speak English very well.

【5】What’s the passage mainly about?

A. Art form. B. Culture.

C. Education. D. Homework.

26、In the modern world, pressure is a serious problem. Today, most student are under too much pressure. Some students can’t get on well with their classmates. While others may worry about their tests. Even they can't get enough and good sleep. I’m always under pressure, too.

How can we solve the pressure problems? Here are my suggestions.

The first, tell your pressure to someone. I think a conversation with parents or teachers is necessary to solve the problem. We can talk our problems with our teachers or parents. My parents want me to be the top student in class. So they send me to all kinds of training classes at weekends. I feel tired and unhappy. Last Monday evening, I had a talk with my mother. I told her I was not lazy. I really felt tired. I needed time to relax. My mother agreed with me at last.

The second, learn to relax yourself. I think the most important way to relieve us from our pressure is to learn to relax ourselves. In order to relax ourselves, we can turn to some of our hobbies and interests. Different students have different ways. For example, we can listen to music, watch TV, or read some books. But for me I often exercise. I enjoy it. I think taking exercise can not only rest our brains and eyes but also help build our bodies. I think sports are really helpful to both my health and my study. We can also go for a trip. We can visit somewhere beautiful and peaceful to relax. And we can get close to the nature.

【1】Why does the writer feel tired and unhappy?

A. He can't get well along with his classmates and friends.

B. He always worries about all his tests in school.

C. His parents send him to all kinds of training classes.

A. The writer gives us two ways to solve the pressure problem.

B. The writer thinks pressure isn't a problem in the modern world.

C. Sports aren't good ways to relax because it can make us tired.

A. Who to have conversations with.

27、No one knows when the first kite was made. The first record of a kite was more than 2,000 years ago in China. General Han Hsin was the leader of a rebel army(叛军). He wanted to overthrow(推翻) a cruel king, but he had only a few men. Hsin decided to dig a tunnel into the king’s castle. He flew a kite to judge how long the tunnel should be. The men in the tunnel took the kite string with them. When they reached the end of the string(线) , they knew it was time to dig up. They came up in the castle courtyard and defeated the king.

Kites have been flown in Japan for hundreds of years. In the 1700s, kites were flown in the fall to give thanks for a good harvest. Stalks of rice were tied to the kites. Kites were also flown to send good wishes to couples who had had their first son.

Today in Japan kites are often flown as part of a celebration, such as the beginning of a new year. The kites are painted to look like animals, heroes and gods. Small kites as well as huge ones are made. Kite festivals are held each year in many areas of the country.

Kites have been used for scientific purposes in the western world. Most people have heard of Benjamin Franklin and his kite. Franklin had been studying electricity. He thought that lightning was a form of electricity, but he wasn’t sure. In 1752, he tried to find out. He flew a kite in a storm. A key was attached to the kite. When sparks jumped from the key, it proved his idea was correct.

In the 1890s, Lawrence Hargrave invented the box kite. He used this kite to test ideas about fight. From 1898 to 1933, the United States Weather Bureau used box kites to gather weather data. The Wright Brothers also experimented with kites. What they learned helped them make the first airplane flight in 1903.
