As is known to all, nowadays many students are interested in studying abroad.

Attending schools abroad has many advantages. First, by looking at our own country from outside, we can best see the strong points and weak points of our nation and therefore widen our vision and broaden our minds. Second, while studying in a foreign country, we can travel widely, visiting famous scenic spots and making friends with the local people. Third, we can use the foreign language in our daily life so that our ability in that language may be improved quickly. But the most important is to learn advanced science and technology. For all these advantages, it is really worthwhile to go abroad for education.

However, as everything has two sides, there are also some disadvantages in attending a foreign university. The most serious problem is the language barrier (障礙). Most of the students who are ready to go abroad do not prepare themselves well for the new language environment. As a result, on arriving there, they will find it difficult to understand what the instructors are saying in class. Besides, for not knowing about the customs and way of life of the local people, they may run into trouble in dealing with various situations. Therefore, misunderstandings often arise. Furthermore, the cost of living is much higher than that in our country, so most students have to find part-time jobs in order to help support themselves. Faced with these difficulties, many students find themselves unable to pay full attention to their studies and some students may even fail in their courses and learn little.

Therefore, given an opportunity to attend a school abroad, one must consider the factors carefully before making up his mind. On the one hand, it is a good thing to go and study abroad. But on the other hand, one must not neglect (忽視) the disadvantages.

1.According to the passage, the following are all advantages of studying abroad EXCEPT        .

A. having more chances to get good jobs

B. improving foreign language ability quickly

C. visiting well-known scenic spots

D. learning advanced science and technology

2.The underlined word “instructors” in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to        .

A. neighbors B. teachers

C. strangers D. classmates

3.Why do some students find part-time jobs?

A. Because they want to learn more skills in a different country.

B. Because they want to make full use of their spare time.

C. Because they are not interested in studying.

D. Because they have to support themselves.

4.The passage mainly tells us that        .

A. studying abroad is a good way to learn advanced science and technology

B. everything has two sides

C. people should think twice before going abroad

D. going abroad has more advantages than disadvantages

A new report says plastics are responsible for $13 billion in damage to the oceans and the undersea environment. The findings were announced recently at a United Nations conference. 1.

Plastic thrown away carelessly makes its way into rivers and other waterways2.After a while, it collects in the sea. And plastic never goes away. Plastic is not biodegradable—destroyed by bacteria or natural processes. Instead, it just breaks up into smaller pieces over time. The oceans contain a lot of chemicals and other pollutants.3.That means harmful material may get into our food supply.

4.Human beings cause pollution and they can take steps to stop it. They can use fewer single use product containers and throw plastics away correctly. Plastic recycling programs also works—where old bottles and other plastics are collected, broken down and used to make new products. We could reuse bottles in our households many times if we wish to, rather than end it after the first use. We could, when we get rid of that plastic, recycle it and reuse it, which replaces the need for raw materials.

The report also calls on companies to improve methods for using plastics. 5.And it calls for information about the way plastic is thrown out or removed from use. By putting a new value on plastic, industry has a special reason to clean up the environment.

But all of the companies must join to deal with the problem.

A. It asks for them to better measure and direct plastic use.

B. But people can make a big difference.

C. Plastics should be gathered together and reused..

D. It is convenient to use plastic bags in everyday life.

E. Then, fish may eat the plastics.

F. The report tells about harm to sea life and what might be done to improve the situation.

G. The plastic eventually reaches coastal areas and ocean waters

Some of the best things in life don’t happen until you grow old enough to recognize them. I can say that about tea.

I didn’t start to drink tea until I was 35. What happened before that? The first time I felt a genuine urge to drink tea was in 2003, when I stayed briefly in the United Kingdom. After a time of consuming local food, I started to really like strong black tea. Although it was too strong to my tongue, I felt it was a necessity because it was comforting to my body.

I took packs of green teas with me as gifts but was disappointed to find my British friends preferred much stronger black teas from Sri Lanka. Later I learned that although people know China for its teas, it ranks only third among the world’s black tea exporters, after Sri Lanka and Kenya.

After I came back to China and started to cover food stories, I met friends in the tea-drinking circle and learned more. Although the majority of the rest of the world drinks black tea, which the Chinese call“red tea”, China produces and drinks mostly green teas.

I feel lucky to be Chinese because of the great variety of teas available in the country. It is estimated that there are more than 2,000 teas in China if you divide them geographically, including more than 600 locally famous brews. A more simple way to categorize (分類) is by color and extent of fermentation (發(fā)酵). That comes down to six main categories—green, white, yellow, dark-greenish (oolong), red and black teas.

Tasting teas can be compared to our lives. They can be plain and predictable but sometimes they are full of pleasant surprises. Occasionally they can even seem too good to be true. The best thing is, you know there’s always more to explore.

1.Which country ranks first among the world’s black tea exporters?

A. Sri Lanka B. China

C. Kenya D. United States

2.The writer of this passage works as a ________.

A. manager B. journalist

C. scientist D. tea grower

3.All of the following statements about tea in China are true EXCEPT ________.

A. varieties of tea is planted and produced each year in China

B. all tea in China can be divided into six categories with no exceptions

C. tea in China can be categorized by color and extend of fermentation

D. tea in China can be divided into more than 2000 categories geographically

4.What column does this passage belong to in a newspaper?

A. World B. Business

C. Travel D. Lifestyle

Next autumn when you see wild geese heading south for the winter flying in a V formation, you might think about what scientists have discovered as to why they fly that way.

As each bird flaps its wings, it creates uplift(提升) for the bird immediately following. By flying in a V formation the whole group adds at least 71% greater flying range than if each bird flies on its own.

People who share a common direction and sense of community can get where they are going more quickly and easily because they are traveling on the push of one another.

When a wild goose falls out of the formation，it suddenly feels the drag and resistance of trying to go alone and quickly tries to get back into the formation to take advantage of the lifting power of the bird in front. When the head goose gets tired，it flies back into the formation and another goose flies to the front. It is wise to take turns doing difficult jobs whether it is people or wild geese flying south.

Wild geese honk (發(fā)出雁叫聲) from behind to inspire those up front to keep up their speed. What can we learn from this?

When a wild goose gets sick or wounded by gunshots，and falls out of the formation，two other geese will fall out with that goose and follow it down to lend help and protection. They will stay with the fallen goose until it is able to fly or until it dies，and only then will they go on with their own or with another formation to catch up with their group.

1.Wild geese fly in a V formation in order to________.

A. protect themselves from danger

B. fly more quickly and easily

C. help the sick and wounded

D. fly much higher in the sky

2.What can we learn from the fifth paragraph?

A. We should try to lead others to move forward.

B. We should give people facing difficulties encouragement.

C. We should believe in those who offer us help.

D. We should care more about the old and sick.

3.When a wild goose becomes sick or is wounded，________.

A. it will be left alone and will fall on the ground

B. the whole group will stop flying

C. two other geese will stay with it to offer help

D. other geese will honk to give it encouragement

4.What do we know from the passage?

A. A wild goose can help the one following it by flapping its wings.

B. A person who works alone can work better than one who doesn’t.

C. It is not good for wild geese to take turns being the head goose.

D. The wild geese that fall behind are unlikely to catch up with their group.
