9．Directions：Read the following three passages．Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements．For each of them there are four choices marked A，B，C and D．Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read．My basketball coach （教練）at Princeton used to say，"On the court （球場），you can tell who is selfish．"
When my sister Michelle brought Barack Obama home to meet the family，she said to me，"I want you to take him out to play，to see what type of man he is when he，s not around me"So I invited Barack to play basketball with a few friends of mine．
I was very nervous although I had already met Barack a few times．I was thinking this guy seemed like a good guy．
We played a hard five-on-five．He was thin but not weak at all．He played extremely left-handed．He dealt with everything perfectly．He wasn't the best guy out there or the worst guy．I liked the fact that he was confident but wasn't proud．Barack was very team-oriented （有團隊精神的），very unselfish．He played as if he was one of us-he wasn't trying to be president of Harvard Law Review．But the best part about it was that when we were on the same team，he did not pass me the ball each time．He wasn't trying to suck up to my sister through me．I was glad to give my sister the good news，"Your boy is straight．"
He isn't selfish，which is the greatest praise you can give both a player and a leader．America has got a guy who is running a government in an efficient manner．That's the same guy I got to know playing basketball when he was visiting my family．

B．He wants to show that he is a good basketball player．
C．He wants to tell his sister about the words．
D．He wants to use the words to test a person．

B．was strong enough to play

4．Brian arrived at the San Francisco airport two hours before the flight to Paris．He was wearing three shirts，a jacket，two pairs of socks，a pair of shorts，and two pairs of jeans．He was carrying one small backpack，which was very full，but he didn't have any other luggage．Brian needed to meet a man named Tony before he checked in for his flight．He found Tony near the Air France counter．Tony gave him a round-trip ticket and a small package．
"Give this package to Jean-Paul at the airport in Paris．He will have a sign with your name on it．I think you can find him easily，"Tony said，"You don't have any luggage，right？"
"Only this backpack，"Brian answered"You said I could bring one carry-on bag．"
"That's right．One carry-on bag is fine．Have a good trip．"
"Thanks．"
Is Brian a criminal（罪犯）？Not at all．He is an air-courier．And he paid only $110for the round-trip ticket to Paris．Air couriers get cheap airline tickets because they take important packages and papers to foreign countries．Businesses sometimes need to get packages and papers to people in foreign countries by the next day．Often，the only way they can do this is to use an air-courier company．It is not cheap for a business to send a package with an air courier，but it is quick．
Every year about 80，000people worldwide travel as air couriers．The number of tickets for courier travel is growing by about 10percent a year．However，air-courier travel isn't for everyone．But if you have very little money，can be flexible（靈活的） about your travel plans，and don't mind wearing the same clothes for a week，it can be a great way to take a vacation!

25．Why was Brian wearing so many clothes for his travel？C
A．Because they were the uniforms for air couriers．
B．Because that made him easier to be recognized．
C．Because his backpack had no room for his clothes．
D．Because he did not have any luggage with him
26．An air courier is a person whoD

18．Two weeks later，I registered for my course and started going to lectures．It was really difficult to concentrate at first，and I could only really pick up bits and pieces．Over time though，as my Spanish improved，it became a lot easier and a lot more interesting．
I made friends with the other Erasmus students in my classes．It was difficult to get to know the Spanish students as most of them had already formed their own groups of friends and stuck to them．I did meet a few friendly Spanish people，but the vast majority of my friends were other foreign students．
I didn't really experience too much of a culture shock as I learnt a lot about the country through my major courses，but there were a few things that still took me by surprise，such asthe laid-back attitudeof the people．It meant life moved in general at a slower pace，which could be frustrating at times，but 1 soon grew to love it．
I didn't miss home too much as I kept in contact with family and friends online through Skype．It was also easy to get a cheap flight back for the weekend if I liked a weekend of home comforts．However，I was always so busy that I never really spared time for homesickness．My family came over a few times to visit and it was always good to have a fresh perspective（視角） on the city as they would appreciate things about Valencia I hadn't noticed or took for granted．
I have many fond memories of Valencia，especially the days spent on the sunny beach the brilliant food，the all-night party and the festivals．I'll definitely go back for a weekend with all the friends 1 met there and I hope to keep in touch with my Spanish friends too．I thoroughly recommend studying abroad，and although it may seem tough early on，the chances are you'll have a great time．

    A．had many online friends                            B．well supported his study
