Do you want to travel to cool places, meet foreigners, and learn a foreign language? If you want, consider a study-abroad program. No matter what country you live in, you can learn world trade in Japan, study art in France, or take dancing lessons in Ghana.
Besides the excitement of travel, one reason to study abroad is that you will experience new customs, holidays, food, art and music. Andrew was a student who once studied in France. He said, “I learned French and now I can speak French fluently. When I was in France, I learned about cultures, people and myself. I learned a lot from the stand of a native member of the country, not from a tourist’s stand.”
Another reason for studying abroad is that you’ll gain self-confidence. Christina studied in Caracas, Venezuela, a city of 10 million people. The city is different from her hometown. Christina said she learned how to express herself in another language. That made her more confident.
Living away from home can also help you adjust in the transition to college and adulthood. Matth
ew said he returned from studying in Australia with confidence and practical knowledge. “After studying abroad in high school, I found the transition to college to be easy. Being 560 miles from home didn’t seem particularly daunting（使人畏縮的） after having lived thousands of miles away.”

JOHANNESBURG—They say cats have nine lives．Now a Chinese toad(蟾蜍)has joined the club of clever survivors．
South Africans are shocked by a toad that got trapped in a ship from China to Cape Town, after jumping into a candlestick(燭臺)that was made there．South African officials reportedly planned to put down the creature, fearing it would cause harm as an invasive species if it were let go in the wild.
But the toad got a last-minute pardon. Mango Airlines, a south African airline, transported the toad on Friday to Johannesburg to an animal center, after officials decided to find a way to let the toad live. The two-hour flight was comfortable compared to the trip from China, a long way of many weeks and thousands of kilometers across the Indian Ocean.
Airline spokesman Hein Kaiser said the toad got "first-class treatment", sitting in a plastic container together with Brett Glasby, an expert looking, after animals. There was even a ceremony, i
n which the toad's boarding pass was handed to Glasby.
"He was the star of the Show on the flight. He was the unusual passenger, I think every passenger stopped to have a look." Kaiser said.
On landing in Johannesburg, the toad was brought out of its container for a photo shoot. Observers said the brown toad seemed like a cool customer. It belongs to the Asian Toad species. It is believed to have survived the trip from China by hardening its skin to prevent it from drying out, and also by slowing its breathing and heart rate—-methods that help the species survive in times of drought(干旱).
"We've had snakes in imported wood and insects in fruit. We were called because the toad was right inside the candlestick, and we had to break it to get it out." Glasby, the expert, told The Star, a South African newspaper.
1.The underlined phrase "an invasive ~species" in second paragraph may refer to ________.
A. something which is not used to the local conditions
B. something which is probably harmful to the native creatures
C. something which has never appeared in local areas
D. something which is greatly good to the local people
2.The toad was able to arrive in South Africa alive ________.
A. because it slowed it
s breath on the way
B. because it used methods in times of drought
C. because it formed hard skin to protect itself
D. because many people looked after it carefully
3.It can be inferred from the passage that ________.
A. sometimes animals are transported by accident
B. no one has seen such a big toad in Africa
C. a candlestick is the best place for a toad
D. droughts make toads live longer
4.What is the best title of the text?
A. A journey-loving toad. B. An amazing China toad.
C. A toad that has nine lives D. A toad in a candlestick.

Healthy eating begins with learning how to eat smart—it’s not just what you eat, but how you eat. Your food choices can reduce your risk of illnesses such as heart disease, cancer, as well as defend against bad mood. Moreover, learning the habits of healthy eating can increase your energy, sharpen your memory and stabilize(穩(wěn)定)your mind.
Healthy eating is about more than the food on your plate— 1. Healthy eating habits can be learned and it is important to slow down and think about the food as nourishment rather than just something to gulp down between meetings or on the way to your school.
•Eat with others whenever possible.
Eating with other people has a lot of benefit—particularly for children—and allows you to follow healthy eating habits. 2.
•Take time to chew your food and enjoy mealtimes.
Chew your food slowly and taste every bite. We always tend to rush through our meals, forgetting to taste and feel the food in our mouth. Reconnect with the joy of eating.
• 3.
Ask yourself if you are really hungry, or have a glass of water to see if you are thirsty instead of hungry. 4. It actually takes a few minutes for your brain to tell your body that it has had enough food, so eat slowly.
•Eat breakfast and smaller meals throughout the day.
5. and eating small, healthy meals throughout the day(rather than the standard three large meals)keeps your energy up and your metabolism(新陳代謝)going.。
A. Listen to your body.
B. it is about where you eat your food.
C. it is also about how you think about the food.
D. Drink more water when you are hungry.
E. A healthy breakfast can start your metabolism,
F. During a meal, stop eating before you feel full.
G. Eating in front of the TV or computer often leads to mindless overeating.
