As an exchange student, I must admit (承认) that at first America was a big culture shock for me.
I stayed with a host family in a small town. My host p arents organized a lot of activities in my spare time so that I wouldn't miss home or feel lonely.
However, life was hard to get used to. My main problem was with the language. I failed to understand much in the first few weeks because everyone spoke so fast. ThoughI managed to get used to it. I still have problems b ecause they used a lot of idioms (习语).
Another difference was with the food. My host family always had bread, potatoes and salad for meals. I really miss the dumplings, rice and delicious dishes from home. School was a big shock too. They do not require students to wear uniforms, so students can wear almost whatever they like. Some students have strange hairstyles (发型) as well. Some students even have pink or purple hair!
--- By Brad Li My dream was to see some real snow, so during the Christmas holiday, we took our passport (护照) and flew over the Pacific to Calgary, Canada. We took a bus to a ski resort in the Canadian Rockies. As the bus climbed through the mountains, we saw the thick snow on the trees. I was dying to get out and play with it. At last, we reached the resort and quickly jumped out of the bus. This was our first experience with snow. We were like littl e children --- we made snow balls, and threw them at one another. Then we check in at the hotel.
The next day, we put on our ski suits and gloves, took our skis and went outside onto the snow. Our instructor took us to a gentle slope (斜坡), and showed us some basic skills. To be honest, the first lesson was not a great success. I kept on falling over, and I had to hold on to a rope to keep my balance (平衡).
However, the next day, I only fell over a few times, and I managed to do a few rapid runs. I felt please
d with myself, and my instructor told me I was doing much better. Although it was very cold, I spent most of my holiday skiing. I had a wonderful time.

Though you are a teenager now, there will finally come a time when you start to earn (赚) money. While it may be fun to have your own money to spend, it can also be difficult trying to manage it properly. Here are some tips on how to manage your money.
Use your money wisely
Most teenagers earn money for everyday use, or because they are saving up for something. So when they receive their money, they must first decide what they want to do with it. However, tr y to avoid the temptation (诱惑) to spend it all in one go (一口气)! Remember: Money takes a long time to earn, but it goes very quickly. Bank your savings
The money you don’t need can be saved at home or in a bank. If you want to save your money at home, get yourself a piggy bank or something else to keep your money in. The other choice is to save your money in a bank. One of the advantages is that you can earn interest (利息) on it.

Children with no shoes on do better at school than those with shoes on, a study suggests.
For over 10 years, researchers from universities observed (观察) children in 100 schools from 25 countries. They found that classrooms were quieter when children took off their shoes. It provided a quieter environment where pupils were more willing to focus on study than those with shoes on.
“Children are much more willing to sit on the floor and relax if they have no shoes on,” said professor Stephen Heppel, a lead researcher.
“The last place a child would sit to read is an upright chair. And we’ve found that 95% of them really don’t read on a chair at home,” Heppel added. “When they go on holidays, they read lying down.” Professor Heppel hopes to bring the “shoeless policy” to all U.K. schools. He says relaxing conditions at school make children feel as if they’re at home. He believes all the teachers will be glad to adopt the habit.
36. The best title to describe the main idea of the passage is “__________”.
A. Suggestions on shoeless children.
B. Suggestions on children with shoes on.
C. Shoeless children do better at school.
D. Shoeless children looks cool at school.
37. According to the passage, we know that the study was made by __________.
A. some university students
B. children from 25 countries
C. teachers in 1000 schools
D. researchers from university
38. Whi ch of the following pie chart ( ) can explain Heppel’s discovery?
