24、Interviewer: With me in the studio is Linda Meehan, who’s recently returned from a six-month exchange programme with a family in the Netherlands. That’s a long way from home. Why did you choose to do your exchange programme there?

Linda: Well. None of my friends had been there or anything like that but my grandfather spent some time there when he was young and he said I should visit one day and I’d planned to do that as soon as I could. So when I had the opportunity to go to Europe, it seemed like the obvious place to go.

Interviewer: But you were only 15. Was there anything you found difficult about living in a foreign country?

Linda: Well, the family I stayed with in the Netherlands were really kind and I wasn’t lonely because I shared the room with one of their daughters. She helped me get used to my new routine. The only thing that was hard was the one—kilometre bike ride to school every day! I enjoyed it in the summer but in winter it was terrible.

Interviewer: And 3 ?

Linda: It was OK because there were a lot of classes in English. And they gave me projects to do when there were subjects in Dutch I couldn’t understand. The school was very modern and much bigger than most schools in Australia. The library was fantastic and they also had a lot more science labs than my school at home.

Interviewer: What about the students?

Linda: Oh, they were really friendly. They gave me lots of advice about places I should visit. They’d all travelled a lot more than me, though no one had been to Australia. But what I found really strange was that they’d never thought about going away from their families for several months like me. Some of them couldn’t understand how I could do that.

Interviewer: So is this an experience you would recommend?

Linda: Oh, definitely! I benefit a lot from the programme. And I think six months was the right amount of time. I needed that amount of time to learn the language. But after six months I really needed to see my parents. I was so happy to see them again.

26、   Do you have a lucky number? What is it? Many people have a special number that they hope will bring them good luck.

In Chinese culture, some numbers are believed to be lucky or unlucky based on the Chinese word that the number sounds similar to.

For example, the word for the number 8 sounds similar to the word for “making a fortune”. So, people consider it a very lucky number. Some people will even spend a lot of money to have 8s in their phone number or on their vehicle license plate (车牌照) number. The opening ceremony of the Beijing Olympics began at 8:08 pm on Aug 8, 2008.

The number 9 is also a lucky number because of its connection to the emperors of China. There were nine dragons on emperors’ robes (龙袍) and Chinese myth held that the dragon had nine children. The number 9 also stands for “long lasting”. That’s why a man always proposes (求婚) to a woman with 99 or 999 roses.

So what’s an unlucky number in China? One example is 4. Many Chinese people see 4 as an unlucky number because it sounds similar to the character for “death”.

Because of this, many buildings skip (跳过) the fourth floor, and simply call it the fifth floor. In Hong Kong, some buildings even skip all floors numbered with 4, such as 4, 14, 24, 34 and all 40-49 floors. Some buildings also skip the 13th floor, as this is considered an unlucky number in the West. As a result, a building whose highest floor is 50 may have only 35 physical floors.

【1】What makes Chinese people believe a number is lucky or unlucky?

A.The shape of the number. B.The sound of the number.

C.The history of the number. D.The spelling of the number.

【2】A building whose highest floor is 60 in Hong Kong might only have ________ physical floors if it skips all the unlucky numbers.

A.35 B.44 C.50 D.60

【3】If we put the passage into three parts, which of the following is best?

  (①=Paragraph 1  ②=Para. 2  ③=Para. 3 ④=Para. 4  ⑤=Para. 5  ⑥=Para. 6)

A.①; ②③④; ⑤⑥ B.①②; ③④⑤; ⑥

C.①②; ③④; ⑤⑥ D.①; ②③④; ⑤⑥

【4】What is the story mainly about?

A.Lucky and unlucky numbers in Western culture. B.Meanings of different lucky numbers.

C.Meanings of different unlucky numbers. D.Lucky and unlucky numbers in Chinese culture.

27、People at home keep asking me, "Is it hard to learn Chinese? Why have you learned it so well?" Well, there's one thing that makes Chinese easy to learn: there are so many people to talk to. You've probably heard that it's the most spoken language. Today it's also one of the most written languages online. And with so many Chinese people interested in learning English, it couldn't be easier to find a friend for language learning. You just have to know where to look for them.

The really good place to look for them is QQ. QQ has the same status(地位) in China as AIM (AOL Instant Messenger) does in the US. It is reported that at any moment, up to 9,000,000 people are using QQ. They're at work, or in a web café(网吧), or at home, and the information of the users can be found. If you sign on with your address set to "abroad", you'll soon find that many thousands of them are interested in speaking to you! This is a great way for you to learn Chinese, and for them to learn English. I think that it's a very interesting way of cultural contact(文化交流), too, for ordinary people from around the world to be able to have one-on-one contact.

【1】 In the first paragraph(段落), the writer tells us ___________.

A. why his family members want to learn Chinese

B. where you can find people to talk to for language learning

28、It’s k【1】 that China is a country with the largest population in the world. To deal with the population problem, our government decided to have one-child policy (政策). After the policy was carried out for some time, while it did help to c【2】 the population growth, problems like aging also became clear. So all Chinese c【3】 were told that they could be allowed to have two children. As the one-child policy came to an end, many Chinese children, i【4】 you may have a brother or sister in the future.

But what would your l【5】 be like growing up with a brother or a sister?

Having a brother or sister can keep you away from some bad f【6】, such as loneliness and fear. Your brother or sister can give you something that parents can’t give you. You may not feel lonely at home any more b【7】 there will be someone playing with you and sharing secrets with you. Of course, sometimes you may argue or e【8】 fight with him or her, but you will forgive each other soon.

Although now the government e【9】 people to have more children, most young people don’t want more children because of the pressure from work and family. M【10】 it takes a period of time for people to accept the new policy.
