Michelle was a student at University of California, Los Angeles. She is here to tell us how she feels about the city.

What were the best things about Los Angeles?

One of my favorite things about Los Angeles is the weather. I hate the cold and it never really gets that cold there. Plus, most of the time it’s usually sunny, which is good because I love going to the beach during the summer. There’s so much to do at the beach, but my favorite thing in L.A. was having a picnic on the sand with my friends.

What were the worst things about being there?

I disliked having to drive everywhere to get around because the city is so spread out. Los Angeles has a lot of traffic and sometimes it takes a long time to get somewhere close by just because the streets are so crowded. Also, a lot of people complain about the pollution.

Did you have any problems there?

Just the normal problems of living in any city, like watching out for pickpockets. Some people think Los Angeles has a lot of crime, but I think it’s as safe as any other city. Also, many people think driving is difficult because there is a lot of traffic and road rage (路怒癥), but it just takes a little practice and a lot of patience.

What are the people like in Los Angeles?

There are all types of people in Los Angeles since the city is pretty diverse. For the most part, though, most of the people are friendly, calm and relaxed. Some people say that everyone in Los Angeles is beautiful, but I think that’s just a stereotype.

Would you go back to Los Angeles?

Certainly. Los Angeles is one of my favorite cities in the world. I love the fact that it has all the nightlife and shopping of a big city, but also has access to beaches, parks, mountains and other places you can’t usually find in large cities. Between the weather and the beaches and all the fun things to do, it’s a great place to be.

1.We can learn from the text that Michelle _____.

A. hates the heavy traffic in Los Angeles

閱讀理解。

There’s no doubt that our character has a profound effect on our future.What we must remember,however,is not merely how powerful character is in influencing our fate (命運(yùn)),but how powerful we are in shaping our own character and,therefore,our own fate.Character may determine our fate,but character is not determined by fate.

It’s a common mistake to think of character as something that is fully formed and fixed very early in life.It calls to mind old proverbs like “A leopard can’t change its spots” and “You can’t teach an old dog new tricks.”

This perspective that our character is “etched in stone” is supported by a great deal of modern psychology emphasizing self-acceptance.As Popeye says,“I am what I am.” The hidden message is:Don’t expect me to be more,better,or different.

Ultimately,these views of humanity totally undervalue the lifelong potential for growth that comes with the power of reflection and choice.

How depressing it would be to believe that we can’t choose to be better,more honest,more respectful,more responsible,and more caring.None of us should give up the personal seeking to improve our character.Not because we’re bad,we don’t have to be sick to get better ,but because we’re not as good as we could be.

There are so many things in life we can’t control,whether we’re beautiful or smart,whether we had good parents or bad,whether we grew up with affirmation or negation.It’s inspiring to remember that nothing but moral will power is needed to make us better.

No,it isn’t easy.But if we make a great effort to become more aware of the habits of heart and mind that drive our behavior,we can begin to place new emphasis on our higher values so that we become what we want our children to think we are.

1.What is the best title of the passage?

A.We shape our own character.

B.Character determines our fate.

C.Character is fully formed and fixed.

D.We must meet what our children need.

2.The author agrees that _____________.

A.a(chǎn) leopard can't change its spots

B.in life we must attach importance to self-acceptance

C.we shouldn’t expect us to be more different

D.character is not fully formed and fixed very early

3.In the author’s opinion,which of the following is TRUE?

A.We can’t choose to be better.

B.We should seek to improve our character for we’re bad enough.

C.We should value our lifelong potential for growth.

D.We should make choices constantly.

4.What do we need to improve ourselves according to the author?

A.Our smartness.

B.Our will power.

C.Our fate.

D.Our character.

5.What can we infer from the passage?

A.It is not difficult to improve ourselves.

B.We must try our best to be as good as possible.

C.Our children should copy our behavior.

D.We should control as many things as possible in life.

閱讀理解。

Specialists say it is not easy to get used to life in a new culture.“Culture shock”is the term these specialists use when talking about the feelings that people have in a new environment.There are three stages of culture shock, say the specialists.In the first stage, the newcomers like their new environment.Then, when the fresh experience dies, they begin to hate the city, the country, the people, and everything else.In the last stage, the newcomers begin to adjust to their surrounding and, as a result, enjoy their life more.

There are some obvious factors(因素)in culture shock.The weather may be unpleasant.The customs may be different.The public service systems-the telephones, post office, or transportation-may be difficult to work out.The simplest things seem to be big problems.The language may be difficult.

Who feels culture shock? Everyone does in this way or that.But culture shock surprises most people.Very often the people having the worst culture shock are those who never had any difficulties in their community.Coming to a new country, these people find they do not have the same established positions.They find themselves without any identify(身份).They have to build a new self-image.

Culture shock gives rise to a feeling of disorientation(迷失方向).This feeling may be homesickness.When homesick, people feel like staying inside all the time.They want to protect themselves from the strange environment, and create an escape inside their room for a sense of security(安全).This escape does solve the problem of culture shock for the short time, but it does nothing to make the person familiar with the culture.Getting to know the new environment and gaining experience-these are the long-term solutions to the problem of culture shock.

A.will never be familiar with culture of the country
