WASHINGTON?Laura Straub is a very worried woman.  Her job is to find families for French teenagers who expect to live with American families in the summer.

It’s not easy, even desperate.

    “We have many children left to place: 40 out of 75,” said Straub, who works for a Paris based foreign exchange programme called LEC.

    When exchange programmes started 50 years ago, more families were willing to help others. For one thing, more mothers stayed home.

    But now, increasing numbers of women work outside the home. Exchange student programmes have struggled in recent years to sign up host families for the 30,000 teenagers who come from abroad every year to have some courses for one year in the United States. as well as the thousands more who take part in summer programmes.

School systems in many parts of the US,unhappy about accepting non?taxpaying students, have also strictly limited the number of exchange students they accept. At the same time, the idea of hosting foreign students is becoming less exotic (異國(guó)情調(diào)的).

In searching for host families, who usually receive no pay, exchange programmes are increasingly broadening their requests to include everyone from young couples to the retired.

“We are open to many different types of families.” said Vickie Weiner, eastern regional director for ASSE, a 25-year-old programme that sends about 30,000 teenagers

on one-year exchange programmes worldwide.

For elderly people,exchange students “keep up young——they really do,” said Jean Foster,who is hosting 16-year-old Nina Porst from Denmark.

5.Foreign teenagers come to American families wilh the purpose of .

  A.finding thier parents in America         B.finding good jobs in America

C.learning the culture of America          D.enjoying the life of America

6.In the past, Straub’s job was easy, because American families .

  A.needed more money to live              B.had fewer children to support

 C.had spare rooms to rent                 D.were not as busy as now

7.To deal with the problem in recent years, Straub and her workmates have to .

A.ask different kinds of families for help    B.limit the number of the exchange students

C.borrow much money to pay for the costs  D.force some families to accept students

8.From the last paragraph we can conclude that __________.

A.exchange students are welcome in America

B.exchange students must pay much money to the host families

C.American students don’t want to join the exchange programmes

D.old Americans can benefit from hosting exchange students

One Canada,Two Languages

Canada is one of the few nations in the world to have two official languages:English and French. There are 10 provinces in the country but only one of these—Quebec is known as “French Canada”. This is because it was founded by French explorers while British adventurers discovered the rest.

Canada left the British empire(帝國(guó)) in 1867 to become an independent country,and English and French have been recognized as the official languages ever since.

Most people speak English as their first language and the two national television networks broadcast in English throughout the country. Apart from in Quebec and a few places on the east coast,F(xiàn)rench television is very rare.

The same goes for traffic signs and menus,for example,outside of Quebec,there are only a few places where you’ll see traffic signs in French. In restaurants,it’s almost impossible to find French on the menu unless you are in the heartland (中心地帶) of French Canada. However,all products sold in Canada must,by law,have labels (標(biāo)簽) and instructions in both languages.

In Canada’s English speaking provinces,official bilingualism(雙語(yǔ))means that students can choose to complete a special French language course. Under this programme,they are taught most of their subjects in French.

If a student begins the course in kindergarten (幼兒園) or Grade One,it is likely that all their lessons will be in French. However,if they start at junior high school,25 percent of the teaching will continue to be in English.

1.How many provinces are there in Canada?

A.Ten.      B.Nine.         C.Eleven.     D.Two.

2.Which country controlled Canada before its independence?

A.France.      B.Britain.        C.America.  D.Germany.

3.Where can you watch French television programmes?

A.Only in Quebec.

B.In Quebec and a few other places.

C.From the two national television networks.

D.All over Canada.

4.What about the education in Canada?

A.In English speaking provinces only English courses are offered there.

B.If you choose a special French language course,most of the subjects are taught in French.

C.The courses in primary school are all taught in English.

D.Most of the courses in junior high schools are taught in English.

5.Which of the following sentences is right?

A.English is the only official language,though French is also spoken there.

B.The two national television networks broadcast both in English and French.

C.All products sold in Canada must,by law,have labels and instructions in both English and French.

D.The lessons in kindergarten or Grade One are likely to be only in English.

The coyote (叢林狼), that clever animal of wide-open spaces, has come to the nation’s capital. In fact, coyotes have spread to every corner of the United States, changing their behaviors to fit new environments and causing researchers to deal with a troublesome new kind of creature: the city coyote.
The coyote originally lived in the middle of the continent. One of its most obvious characters is its smartness, which has made the animal a notorious (臭名昭著的) pest. Hunters trapped, shot and poisoned more than a million coyotes in the 1900s. It’s still one of America’s most hunted animals. Yet the coyote has survived. How has the coyote shown this extraordinary ability? “I guess if you wanted to use one word, it’d be ‘plasticity’,” says Eric Gese, an expert at Utah State University. Coyotes can live alone, in pairs, or in large packs like wolves; hunt at night or during the day; occupy a small region or an area up to 40 square miles; and live on all sorts of food, from lizards (蜥蜴) and shoes, to ants and melons.
Unbelievably people helped coyotes increase when they killed most of the wolves in the United States. The spreading of coyotes into city areas, though, is recent. They travel at night, crossing sidewalks and bridges, running along roads and ducking into culverts (鉆入涵洞) and underpasses. No one knows why coyotes are moving into cities, but experts explain that cleverer, more human-tolerant (不怕人的) coyotes are teaching urban survival skills to new generations.
Occasionally, coyotes might attack human beings. There have been about 160 attacks on people in recent years. Therefore, people have been consistently told not to feed coyotes or leave pet food unsecured. That, plus a large trapping program in the neighborhood, has cut down on the coyote population.
63. The underlined word “plasticity” in Paragraph 2 refers to _____.
A. the ability to fit the environment                   B. notorious smartness
C. hunting ability                           D. being human-tolerant
64. The aim of the passage is to _____.
A. tell people how to fight against coyotes         
B. tell us why the coyote is the most hunted animal
C. supply the reason why the coyote is a kind of notorious pest
D. explain how the coyote has spread to and survived in cities
65. According to the passage, coyotes _____.
A. originally lived in the west of the continent   
B. sleep during the day but look for food at night
C. are teaching survival skills to their younger generations
D. suffered a population decrease because people killed wolves
66. According to the passage, to cut down the coyote population, people should ____________.
A. leave pet food secured       B. keep coyotes in small regions
C. force coyotes to live alone    D. avoid using trapping programmes
