He introduced modern China to his 37 million fans all over the world. The 20-year-old content creator went to Shanghai, Beijing, and Xi’an. His live broadcasts changed what many Western people think about China. ​ First, he went to Shanghai’s Pudong area. It looks really modern. He danced with old people in the parks by the water. He tried street food, like soup dumplings ordered on an app. He also tested Xiaomi’s SU7 Ultra electric car. The car has a very strong engine with 1,526 horsepower and it costs $70,000. He was really surprised. During a live show watched by 5. 6 million people, he said again and again, “This is better than a Lamborghini!” People around the world saw that China’s streets are very clean and its transportation is really good. ​ Next, in Beijing, IShowSpeed got to know Chinese culture. He wore colorful local clothes. On the Great Wall, he did a backflip and shouted, “This is real history!” He didn’t quite understand traditional fermented drinks. But he was happy to learn table tennis from the pop star Jackson Wang. He also really liked eating spicy hotpot. His live shows showed busy night markets and how friendly people are in China. People from other countries said, “Chinese cities seem safer than our cities. ”​ IShowSpeed talked a lot about how good China’s technology is. When he took the bullet (子弹) train to Xi’an, he was amazed because he could use 5G even in tunnels (隧道). He said, “In New York, you can’t even send texts on the subway!” His six-hour live show from Shanghai was in very clear 1440p resolution. This showed how advanced China’s Internet is. It surprised many people who didn’t believe what they saw in the media before. ​ This cultural exchange started many discussions around the world. Fans liked it when IShowSpeed sang the popular Chinese song “Sunshine Rainbow White Horse” with local people. Some people thought these scenes were made up. But most people thought his reactions showed what life is really like in China. Chinese officials said this visit was “people-to-people diplomacy. ” Foreign people said it showed the real China, without political (政治上的) opinions. ​ 1．What was the main purpose of IShowSpeed’s China visit ?

If you do, it’s time to think about it. An AFS program surely makes you stand out (脱颖而出) when you’re applying for a college. Colleges often express how experiencing a foreign culture can be more valuable than one more AP course or after-school activity. Universities really need students who value cross-cultural experience. High school is a perfect time to study a new language. Being in the country where a language is spoken is one of the quickest and best ways to learn the language. If you know one more language, you’ll not only be more competitive in college applications and jobs, but you’ll also be able to communicate and connect with other cultures. An AFS exchange can lead to new perspectives (看法）on the world. By living with a host family, meeting new international friends and attending a foreign school, studying abroad could be one of the best ways for you to understand today's important things. High school is a critical time for teenagers to start thinking about big academic and professional decisions. Your decisions in high school can greatly influence your future. Being an exchange student in high school could provide you with new opportunities to develop skills. Exciting. Rewarding. Memorable. These are words AFS students use to describe their life abroad. If you go to study abroad through an AFS program, you’11 begin an adventure of a lifetime. 1．According to Paragraph 2, what can you do through an AFS program? A．Stand out at college. B．Take one fewer AP course. C．Go into a college more easily. D．Get more jobs in the future. 2．What may happen to you after you study abroad according to Paragraph 3? A．Have some strange ideas. B．Understand yourself much better. C．Know what it means to be a good person. D．Look at the world differently from before. 3．What does the underlined part “a critical time” in Paragraph 4 mean? A．A new time. B．An important time. C．A long time. D．An interesting time. 4．Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage? A．Learning a new language. B．Better understanding today’s things. C．Having an unforgettable experience. D．Being more popular after studying abroad. 5．What does the writer mainly want high school students to do? A．Apply for a good college. B．Learn a new skill abroad. C．Spend some time travelling abroad. D．Study abroad through an AFS program. 长难句解析 ①原句：（第2段第2 句）Colleges often express how experiencing a foreign culture can be more valuable than one more AP course or after - school activity. 译文：大学通常会表达体验外国文化如何比多上一门大学先修课程或参加一项课外活动更有价值。 分析： 本句是主从复合句。Colleges是主语，often是频度副词作状语，express是谓语动词，how experiencing a foreign culture can be more valuable than one more AP course or after - school activity是宾语从句。在这个宾语从句中，experiencing a foreign culture是动名词短语作从句的主语。 长难句解析 ①原句：（第3段第2 句）By living with a host family, meeting new international friends and attending a foreign school, studying abroad could be one of the best ways for you to understand today's important things. 译文： 通过与寄宿家庭一起生活、结识新的国际朋友和在外国学校上学，出国留学可能是你了解当今重要事物的最佳方式之一。 分析：本句是简单句。By living with a host family, meeting new international friends and attending a foreign school是方式状语，其中living with a host family、meeting new international friends 和attending a foreign school是并列的动名词短语；studying abroad是动名词短语作主语，could be是谓语，one of the best ways是表语，for you to understand today's important things是后置定语，修饰ways。 译文 你想通过国际文化交流组织（AFS）的项目出国留学吗？如果想，现在是时候考虑一下了。 AFS项目肯定能让你在申请大学时脱颖而出。大学常常表示，体验外国文化比多上一门大学先修课程（AP）或参加一项课外活动更有价值。大学真的需要重视跨文化体验的学生。高中是学习一门新语言的绝佳时机。身处使用该语言的国家是学习这门语言最快、最好的方法之一。如果你多掌握一门语言，你不仅在大学申请和求职中更具竞争力，还能与其他文化进行交流和建立联系。 AFS交流项目能让你对世界有新的看法。通过与寄宿家庭生活在一起、结识新的国际朋友并就读于一所外国学校，出国留学可能是你了解当今重要事物的最佳途径之一。 高中是青少年开始思考重大学业和职业决策的关键时期。你在高中的决定会对你的未来产生重大影响。高中时成为交换生能为你提供培养技能的新机会。 令人兴奋、收获颇丰、令人难忘。这些都是AFS项目的学生用来描述他们海外生活的词汇。如果你通过AFS项目出国留学，你将开启一场一生难忘的冒险。 核心词汇 ①study v. 学习 ②abroad adv. 在国外 ③AFS n. 国际文化交流组织 ④program n. 项目 ⑤stand out 脱颖而出 ⑥apply for 申请 ⑦college n. 大学 ⑧valuable adj. 有价值的 ⑨AP course 大学先修课程 ⑩after - school activity 课外活动 ⑪university n. 大学 ⑫cross - cultural adj. 跨文化的 ⑬language n. 语言 ⑭competitive adj. 有竞争力的 ⑮application n. 申请 ⑯job n. 工作 ⑰communicate v. 交流 ⑱perspective n. 看法 ⑲host family 寄宿家庭 ⑳opportunity n. 机会 背景知识 AFS国际文化交流项目 知识拓展： ①AFS简介：AFS（American Field Service）起源于1914年，最初是为第一次世界大战中的伤员提供救护服务。后来逐渐发展成为一个全球性的国际文化交流组织，致力于通过国际交流项目，让年轻人在不同国家和文化中生活、学习和成长，促进全球理解和跨文化交流。目前AFS在全球100多个国家和地区设有分支机构。 ②国际文化交流的意义：在全球化的今天，国际文化交流变得越来越重要。它有助于打破文化隔阂，增进不同国家和民族之间的相互理解和尊重。对于个人而言，参与国际文化交流项目可以培养全球视野、跨文化沟通能力和适应能力，这些能力在未来的职业发展和个人成长中都具有重要价值。 ③高中生留学现状：近年来，高中生留学人数呈上升趋势。许多学生希望通过留学获得更优质的教育资源，拓展国际视野，为未来的发展打下坚实的基础。一些热门的留学国家包括美国、英国、加拿大、澳大利亚等。然而，留学也面临着语言障碍、文化差异、生活适应等挑战。 实战演练 真题示例 Passage A （2025·山东枣庄·中考真题） From an early age, I began to like Chinese culture a lot. When there was a chance to study in Beijing as an exchange student, I took it at once. In my first 24 hours in Beijing, I felt very nervous. I didn’t see one foreigner. But on my first day of school, I was greeted by many foreign faces. The students came from all over the world. I would be in a class with Chelsea from Norway and Charlie from my motherland — the UK. None of us had studied Chinese before, but our language skills improved quickly. By the end of the first month, we could all make simple sentences. Some of these sentences, though, were quite funny. We often sent our language teacher Sophie into wild laughter. We had a happy time together. The first month was very tiring. There were so many new things to learn. Thankfully, our school organized many events for students. We talked a lot about cultural differences and our future plans. It was a great chance for us to practice speaking Chinese. In October, my Chinese friend Zhen Hua showed me around the city. He took me to some of his favorite restaurants. Chinese table manners were very different from those in the West. Eating Chinese food was like an adventure, and it became my favorite part about living in Beijing. My six-month stay in China made me excited. I want to visit China again to look for more adventures. 1．According to the passage, why did the writer go to Beijing? A．To see more foreigners in Beijing. B．To visit a good Chinese friend in Beijing. C．To eat delicious Chinese food in Beijing. D．To study in Beijing as an exchange student. 2．Which country is the writer from? A．America. B．England. C．China. D．Norway. 3．Which of the following shows the change of the writer’s feelings during her stay in China? A．happy→nervous→bored→excited B．tired→excited→nervous→happy C．nervous→happy→tired→excited D．happy→bored→excited→nervous 长难句解析 ①原句：（第1段第2 句） When there was a chance to study in Beijing as an exchange student, I took it at once. 译文：当有机会作为交换生去北京学习时，我立刻抓住了这个机会。 分析：本句是复合句。When there was a chance to study in Beijing as an exchange student是时间状语从句，其中When是引导词，there was a chance to do sth.是固定句型，表示“有机会做某事”；I took it at once是主句，其中I是主语，took是谓语动词，it指代前面的chance，at once是时间状语。 译文 我从小就非常喜欢中国文化。当有机会作为交换生到北京学习时，我立刻抓住了这个机会。在北京的头24小时里，我感到非常紧张。我没看到一个外国人。但在我上学的第一天，迎接我的是许多外国面孔。这些学生来自世界各地。我将和来自挪威的切尔西以及来自我的祖国——英国的查理在一个班级。 我们之前都没有学过中文，但我们的语言技能提高得很快。到第一个月月底的时候，我们都能造简单的句子了。不过，有些句子相当有趣。我们常常把我们的语文老师索菲逗得哈哈大笑。我们一起度过了一段快乐的时光。 第一个月非常累人。有太多新东西要学。值得庆幸的是，我们学校为学生组织了很多活动。我们聊了很多关于文化差异和我们未来的计划。这对我们来说是一个练习说中文的好机会。 10月份，我的中国朋友振华带我游览了这座城市。他带我去了一些他最喜欢的餐馆。中国的餐桌礼仪和西方的大不相同。吃中国菜就像一场冒险，这也成了我在北京生活中最喜欢的部分。 我在中国为期六个月的停留让我很兴奋。我想再次访问中国，去寻找更多的冒险经历。 核心词汇 ①Chinese adj. 中国的；n. 中文，汉语；中国人 ②culture n. 文化 ③exchange n. 交换，交流；adj. 交换的；v. 交换，交流 ④student n. 学生 ⑤nervous adj. 紧张的 ⑥foreigner n. 外国人 ⑦greet v. 问候，迎接 ⑧world n. 世界 ⑨language n. 语言 ⑩skill n. 技能，技巧 ⑪improve v. 提高，改善 ⑫sentence n. 句子 ⑬funny adj. 有趣的，滑稽的 ⑭laughter n. 笑声 ⑮tiring adj. 累人的，令人疲倦的 ⑯organize v. 组织 ⑰event n. 事件，活动 ⑱difference n. 差异，不同 ⑲manners n. 礼仪，礼貌 ⑳adventure n. 冒险，奇遇 Passage B （2023·湖北十堰·中考真题） Mike, Germany I stayed with my host family for three weeks in China.

Passage C Everyone loves receiving gifts, and across cultures, presents are a way to show care and love. However, traditions are not the same in every country. As a European living in China, I’ve seen some interesting differences. For example, while fruit and milk are common gifts here, in my culture, they might be a better choice when you are visiting someone in the hospital. When you get invited to a dinner party, a bottle of fine wine is also a good gift. Still, it’s best to check if your hosts drink alcohol (酒). Many Europeans will typically open their presents right away, except in places like Germany. It’s also important to take off the price tag (标签). What if you don’t like your gift? In Spain, you still need to say you love the gift to avoid hurting the other person’s feelings. But if they remember to leave the receipt (收据) inside the gift, which is a very common practice in Spain, you can just exchange it for something else. Re-gifting (礼物转送) is another good idea, as long as the present looks new. Jennifer Molski from Chicago has turned re-gifting into a nice project, collecting gifts people didn’t want for those in need, CBS News reported. How the present looks is also important. However, by using wrapping paper (包装纸) for every present we buy, we produce a lot of waste. Germans value high-quality (高品质的) wrapping paper, but many are now choosing newspaper or maps to help the environment. Do Europeans give money as gifts? Yes. Polish couples, for example, often request cash (现金) at weddings (婚礼) to cover the cost of the venue (场地) and meals. Finally, remember: It’s the thought that counts, not the size or the cost of the gift. 1．What might be a good gift to take to someone in the hospital in the author’s culture? A．Books. B．Fruit. C．Some cash. D．A bottle of fine wine. 2．Why do some Spanish people leave the receipt inside presents? A．To show the price of the gift. B．To make it easier to re-gift the item. C．To show respect to the receiver. D．To allow the receiver to exchange the gift. 3．How can people deal with the gift they don’t like, according to Paragraph 6? A．They can sell it. B．They can return it to the giver. C．They can give it to someone else. D．They can take it back to the store. 4．What is the passage mainly about? A．The gift-giving culture in different countries. B．Recent changes in gift-giving in Europe. C．Why we should re-gift unwanted presents. D．How people in Spain give and receive gifts. Passage D （23-24八年级上·广东深圳·期末）During my first year of learning Chinese, I found that my high school had a sister-school-exchange program (项目) in Nanjing, China. Every summer, some students can study there and stay with host families for two and a half weeks. When I first heard about the chance to go to China, I knew I couldn’t miss it out. Fast forward to a summer, I waved bye to my family and flew to Beijing. In the first morning in China, I experienced a Chinese breakfast unlike anything I had ever tried. We spent three days in Beijing, going around the city and visiting famous landmarks. The highlight of our trip was the Great Wall. Seeing it in person for the first time was amazing even though I had seen hundreds of videos and pictures before. After our three days in Beijing, we took a bullet train to Nanjing, where we would stay with our host families and attend classes given by our sister school. Although my host family did not speak English, they were super welcoming, which made me feel at home. On weekdays, we attended different classes at our sister school, including cooking, music, Kung Fu, custom (习俗), art, etc. I learned a lot about Chinese culture and how different it is from the American lifestyle. Although the study has been over, I am forever thankful to my high school for giving me the opportunity to exchange in China and to immerse (沉浸) myself in its culture and meet amazing friends who I still keep in touch with to this day. I hope that one day I will have the chance to return to China and perhaps even live there at some point in my life! 1．How many days may the exchange program last? A．24 days. B．18 days. C．14 days. D．7 days. 2．According to Paragraph 2, why was the Great Wall the highlight of the trip? A．Because the Great Wall is a famous landmark. B．Because the Great Wall is an ancient building. C．Because the writer first saw the real Great Wall. D．Because the writer had seen it in videos and pictures. 3．What can we learn from Paragraph 2 and 3? A．The writer loved her trip in China. B．The writer loved eating Chinese breakfast. C．The writer flew from Beijing to Nanjing. D．The writer went to China with her parents. 4．According to the writer, what are the exciting parts of being exchange students? ①Leaving their parents.        ②Staying in a host family. ③Knowing about a different culture.    ④Making friends with local people. A．①② B．②③ C．③④ D．①④ 5．Where can we probably read this passage? A．In a novel. B．In a newspaper. C．In a film website. D．In a blog. Passage E 以下是一则短文，请阅读全文，并从下文后的六个选项中选择五个还原到原文中，使原文的意思完整、连贯。 From unfamiliar food to the foreign language, adjusting (调整) to life at an American university can be challenging for international students.

He introduced modern China to his 37 million fans all over the world. The 20-year-old content creator went to Shanghai, Beijing, and Xi’an. His live broadcasts changed what many Western people think about China. ​ First, he went to Shanghai’s Pudong area. It looks really modern. He danced with old people in the parks by the water. He tried street food, like soup dumplings ordered on an app. He also tested Xiaomi’s SU7 Ultra electric car. The car has a very strong engine with 1,526 horsepower and it costs $70,000. He was really surprised. During a live show watched by 5. 6 million people, he said again and again, “This is better than a Lamborghini!” People around the world saw that China’s streets are very clean and its transportation is really good. ​ Next, in Beijing, IShowSpeed got to know Chinese culture. He wore colorful local clothes. On the Great Wall, he did a backflip and shouted, “This is real history!” He didn’t quite understand traditional fermented drinks. But he was happy to learn table tennis from the pop star Jackson Wang. He also really liked eating spicy hotpot. His live shows showed busy night markets and how friendly people are in China. People from other countries said, “Chinese cities seem safer than our cities. ”​ IShowSpeed talked a lot about how good China’s technology is. When he took the bullet (子弹) train to Xi’an, he was amazed because he could use 5G even in tunnels (隧道). He said, “In New York, you can’t even send texts on the subway!” His six-hour live show from Shanghai was in very clear 1440p resolution. This showed how advanced China’s Internet is. It surprised many people who didn’t believe what they saw in the media before. ​ This cultural exchange started many discussions around the world. Fans liked it when IShowSpeed sang the popular Chinese song “Sunshine Rainbow White Horse” with local people. Some people thought these scenes were made up. But most people thought his reactions showed what life is really like in China. Chinese officials said this visit was “people-to-people diplomacy. ” Foreign people said it showed the real China, without political (政治上的) opinions. ​ 1．What was the main purpose of IShowSpeed’s China visit ?

A．The government organized IShowSpeed’s trip B．Ordinary people can help build understanding between countries C．Only officials can promote diplomacy D．IShowSpeed’s trip was a secret mission 【答案】1．D 2．C 3．C 4．B 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，讲了美国YouTuber IShowSpeed访华，体验并直播展示真实中国，被视为“民间外交”。 1．主旨大意题。根据“An American YouTuber named IShowSpeed...introduced modern China to his 37 million fans all over the world.”以及后文他在上海、北京和西安的所见所闻和分享可知，他访华的主要目的是了解中国文化并向他的粉丝展示真实的中国。故选D。 2．细节理解题。根据“First, he went to Shanghai’s Pudong area...He danced with old people in the parks by the water.”可知，他在上海浦东和公园里的老人跳舞了。故选C。 3．推理判断题。根据“When he took the bullet (子弹) train to Xi’an, he was amazed because he could use 5G even in tunnels (隧道). He said, ‘In New York, you can’t even send texts on the subway!’”可知，作者将中国的高铁与纽约的地铁作比较，是为了展示中国先进的技术。故选C。 4．词句猜测题。根据“Foreign people said it showed the real China, without political (政治上的) opinions.”可知，“民间外交”意味着普通民众可以帮助增进国家之间的理解。故选B。 长难句解析 ①原句：（第1段第 1 句）An American YouTuber named IShowSpeed, who people often call “Jiakang Ge (甲亢哥)” because of his exciting live shows, visited China from March 24 to 28, 2025. 译文：一位名叫 IShowSpeed 的美国 YouTube 博主，由于他精彩刺激的直播节目，人们常称他为“甲亢哥”，他于 2025 年 3 月 24 日至 28 日访问了中国。 分析：本句的主干结构是 An American YouTuber visited China from March 24 to 28, 2025，为主谓宾结构。named IShowSpeed 是过去分词短语作后置定语，修饰 An American YouTuber；who people often call “Jiakang Ge (甲亢哥)” because of his exciting live shows 是一个非限定性定语从句，修饰先行词 An American YouTuber，其中 because of his exciting live shows 是原因状语。 译文 一位名为 IShowSpeed 的美国 YouTube 博主于 2025 年 3 月 24 日至 28 日访问了中国。因其激情四射的直播节目，人们常称他为“甲亢哥”。他向全球 3700 万粉丝介绍了现代中国。这位 20 岁的内容创作者前往了上海、北京和西安。他的直播改变了许多西方人对中国的看法。 首先，他来到了上海浦东新区。这里看起来十分现代化。他在江边公园和老人们一起跳舞。他品尝了街头美食，比如通过应用程序下单的汤包。他还试驾了小米 SU7 极电版电动汽车。这款车配备了强劲的发动机，马力高达 1526 匹，售价 7 万美元。他对此大为惊讶。在一场有 560 万人观看的直播中，他反复说道：“这比兰博基尼还要棒！”全球观众由此看到，中国的街道非常干净，交通也十分便利。 接着，在 北京，IShowSpeed 深入了解了中国文化。他穿上了色彩鲜艳的当地服饰。在长城上，他来了个后空翻，并大喊：“这才是真正的历史！”他不太能接受传统的发酵饮品。但他很高兴能向流行歌手王嘉尔学习乒乓球。他还非常喜欢吃麻辣火锅。他的直播展示了热闹的夜市以及中国人的友好。其他国家的人评价道：“中国的城市似乎比我们的城市更安全。” IShowSpeed 多次提及中国科技的发达。当他乘坐高铁前往西安时，他十分震惊，因为即使在隧道里也能使用 5G 网络。他说：“在纽约，在地铁上连短信都发不出去！”他在上海进行的长达六小时的直播，画面分辨率高达 1440p，十分清晰。这展示了中国互联网的先进程度，让许多曾对媒体报道存疑的人感到惊讶。 这次文化交流在全球引发了诸多讨论。粉丝们很喜欢看 IShowSpeed 和当地人一起演唱热门中文歌曲《阳光彩虹小白马》。有些人认为这些场景是编排好的，但大多数人觉得他的真实反应展现了中国的真实生活。中国官方称此次访问为“民间外交”。外国友人表示，这次访问让他们看到了没有政治偏见的真实中国。 Passage B(国际文化交流组织) Do you want to study abroad through an AFS（国际文化交流组织） program? If you do, it’s time to think about it. An AFS program surely makes you stand out (脱颖而出) when you’re applying for a college. Colleges often express how experiencing a foreign culture can be more valuable than one more AP course or after-school activity. Universities really need students who value cross-cultural experience. High school is a perfect time to study a new language. Being in the country where a language is spoken is one of the quickest and best ways to learn the language. If you know one more language, you’ll not only be more competitive in college applications and jobs, but you’ll also be able to communicate and connect with other cultures. An AFS exchange can lead to new perspectives (看法）on the world. By living with a host family, meeting new international friends and attending a foreign school, studying abroad could be one of the best ways for you to understand today's important things. High school is a critical time for teenagers to start thinking about big academic and professional decisions. Your decisions in high school can greatly influence your future. Being an exchange student in high school could provide you with new opportunities to develop skills. Exciting. Rewarding. Memorable. These are words AFS students use to describe their life abroad. If you go to study abroad through an AFS program, you’11 begin an adventure of a lifetime. 1．According to Paragraph 2, what can you do through an AFS program? A．Stand out at college. B．Take one fewer AP course. C．Go into a college more easily. D．Get more jobs in the future. 2．What may happen to you after you study abroad according to Paragraph 3? A．Have some strange ideas. B．Understand yourself much better. C．Know what it means to be a good person. D．Look at the world differently from before. 3．What does the underlined part “a critical time” in Paragraph 4 mean? A．A new time. B．An important time. C．A long time. D．An interesting time. 4．Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage? A．Learning a new language. B．Better understanding today’s things. C．Having an unforgettable experience. D．Being more popular after studying abroad. 5．What does the writer mainly want high school students to do? A．Apply for a good college. B．Learn a new skill abroad. C．Spend some time travelling abroad. D．Study abroad through an AFS program. 【答案】1．C 2．D 3．B 4．D 5．D 【分析】这篇文章主要介绍国际文化交流组织这个项目，目的希望想通过这个项目推荐高中生到国外学习。 1．理解推断题，根据“If you know one more language, you’11 not only be more competitive in college applications and jobs”可知如果你多懂一门语言，你不仅在大学申请和工作上更有竞争力，故选C。 2．细节理解题，根据“An AFS exchange can lead to new perspectives (看法）on the world. By living with a host family, meeting new international friends and attending a foreign school, studying abroad could be one of the best ways for you to understand today's important things.”，可知当你在国际交流学校学习后，因为接触国际上的朋友，所以你的世界有新的看法，有所改变。故选D。 3．词句猜测题，根据“Your decisions in high school can greatly influence your future.”可知在高中的决定会极大地影响你的未来。说明高中学段很重要。故划线部分应该是“重要的阶段”，故选B。 4． 细节理解题，根据“ Being in the country where a language is spoken is one of the quickest and best ways to learn the language.”，“Exciting. Rewarding. Memorable. These are words AFS students use to describe their life abroad. ”和“By living with a host family, meeting new international friends and attending a foreign school, studying abroad could be one of the best ways for you to understand today's important things.”可知本文提到通过国际文化交流组织可以更好的学习新语言，更好的理解当今重要事情，成为一段难以忘怀的经历。并没有提到出国留学后更受欢迎。故选D。 5．主旨大意题，这篇文章主要介绍国际文化交流组织这个项目，再根据最后一段“If you go to study abroad through an AFS program, you’11 begin an adventure of a lifetime.”可知作者的目的是希望高中生通过国际文化交流组织项目出国学习，故选D。 长难句解析 ①原句：（第2段第2 句）Colleges often express how experiencing a foreign culture can be more valuable than one more AP course or after - school activity. 译文：大学通常会表达体验外国文化如何比多上一门大学先修课程或参加一项课外活动更有价值。 分析： 本句是主从复合句。Colleges是主语，often是频度副词作状语，express是谓语动词，how experiencing a foreign culture can be more valuable than one more AP course or after - school activity是宾语从句。在这个宾语从句中，experiencing a foreign culture是动名词短语作从句的主语。 长难句解析 ①原句：（第3段第2 句）By living with a host family, meeting new international friends and attending a foreign school, studying abroad could be one of the best ways for you to understand today's important things. 译文： 通过与寄宿家庭一起生活、结识新的国际朋友和在外国学校上学，出国留学可能是你了解当今重要事物的最佳方式之一。 分析：本句是简单句。By living with a host family, meeting new international friends and attending a foreign school是方式状语，其中living with a host family、meeting new international friends 和attending a foreign school是并列的动名词短语；studying abroad是动名词短语作主语，could be是谓语，one of the best ways是表语，for you to understand today's important things是后置定语，修饰ways。 译文 你想通过国际文化交流组织（AFS）的项目出国留学吗？如果想，现在是时候考虑一下了。 AFS项目肯定能让你在申请大学时脱颖而出。大学常常表示，体验外国文化比多上一门大学先修课程（AP）或参加一项课外活动更有价值。大学真的需要重视跨文化体验的学生。高中是学习一门新语言的绝佳时机。身处使用该语言的国家是学习这门语言最快、最好的方法之一。如果你多掌握一门语言，你不仅在大学申请和求职中更具竞争力，还能与其他文化进行交流和建立联系。 AFS交流项目能让你对世界有新的看法。通过与寄宿家庭生活在一起、结识新的国际朋友并就读于一所外国学校，出国留学可能是你了解当今重要事物的最佳途径之一。 高中是青少年开始思考重大学业和职业决策的关键时期。你在高中的决定会对你的未来产生重大影响。高中时成为交换生能为你提供培养技能的新机会。 令人兴奋、收获颇丰、令人难忘。这些都是AFS项目的学生用来描述他们海外生活的词汇。如果你通过AFS项目出国留学，你将开启一场一生难忘的冒险。 核心词汇 ①study v. 学习 ②abroad adv. 在国外 ③AFS n. 国际文化交流组织 ④program n. 项目 ⑤stand out 脱颖而出 ⑥apply for 申请 ⑦college n. 大学 ⑧valuable adj. 有价值的 ⑨AP course 大学先修课程 ⑩after - school activity 课外活动 ⑪university n. 大学 ⑫cross - cultural adj. 跨文化的 ⑬language n. 语言 ⑭competitive adj. 有竞争力的 ⑮application n. 申请 ⑯job n. 工作 ⑰communicate v. 交流 ⑱perspective n. 看法 ⑲host family 寄宿家庭 ⑳opportunity n. 机会 背景知识 AFS国际文化交流项目 知识拓展： ①AFS简介：AFS（American Field Service）起源于1914年，最初是为第一次世界大战中的伤员提供救护服务。后来逐渐发展成为一个全球性的国际文化交流组织，致力于通过国际交流项目，让年轻人在不同国家和文化中生活、学习和成长，促进全球理解和跨文化交流。目前AFS在全球100多个国家和地区设有分支机构。 ②国际文化交流的意义：在全球化的今天，国际文化交流变得越来越重要。它有助于打破文化隔阂，增进不同国家和民族之间的相互理解和尊重。对于个人而言，参与国际文化交流项目可以培养全球视野、跨文化沟通能力和适应能力，这些能力在未来的职业发展和个人成长中都具有重要价值。 ③高中生留学现状：近年来，高中生留学人数呈上升趋势。许多学生希望通过留学获得更优质的教育资源，拓展国际视野，为未来的发展打下坚实的基础。一些热门的留学国家包括美国、英国、加拿大、澳大利亚等。然而，留学也面临着语言障碍、文化差异、生活适应等挑战。 实战演练 真题示例 Passage A （2025·山东枣庄·中考真题） From an early age, I began to like Chinese culture a lot. When there was a chance to study in Beijing as an exchange student, I took it at once. In my first 24 hours in Beijing, I felt very nervous. I didn’t see one foreigner. But on my first day of school, I was greeted by many foreign faces. The students came from all over the world. I would be in a class with Chelsea from Norway and Charlie from my motherland — the UK. None of us had studied Chinese before, but our language skills improved quickly. By the end of the first month, we could all make simple sentences. Some of these sentences, though, were quite funny. We often sent our language teacher Sophie into wild laughter. We had a happy time together. The first month was very tiring. There were so many new things to learn. Thankfully, our school organized many events for students. We talked a lot about cultural differences and our future plans. It was a great chance for us to practice speaking Chinese. In October, my Chinese friend Zhen Hua showed me around the city. He took me to some of his favorite restaurants. Chinese table manners were very different from those in the West. Eating Chinese food was like an adventure, and it became my favorite part about living in Beijing. My six-month stay in China made me excited. I want to visit China again to look for more adventures. 1．According to the passage, why did the writer go to Beijing? A．To see more foreigners in Beijing. B．To visit a good Chinese friend in Beijing. C．To eat delicious Chinese food in Beijing. D．To study in Beijing as an exchange student. 2．Which country is the writer from? A．America. B．England. C．China. D．Norway. 3．Which of the following shows the change of the writer’s feelings during her stay in China? A．happy→nervous→bored→excited B．tired→excited→nervous→happy C．nervous→happy→tired→excited D．happy→bored→excited→nervous 【答案】1．D 2．B 3．C 【导语】本文讲述了作者作为交换生在北京的学习和生活经历。 1．细节理解题。根据“When there was a chance to study in Beijing as an exchange student, I took it at once.”可知，作者是作为交换生去北京学习的。故选D。 2．细节理解题。根据“Charlie from my motherland — the UK.”可知，作者的祖国是英国，故选B。 3．细节理解题。根据“In my first 24 hours in Beijing, I felt very nervous.”可知，起初是紧张的→根据 “We had a happy time together.”可知，后来是快乐的→ 根据“The first month was very tiring.”可知，第一个月感到疲惫→根据“My six-month stay in China made me excited.”可知，最终是兴奋的，故选C。 长难句解析 ①原句：（第1段第2 句） When there was a chance to study in Beijing as an exchange student, I took it at once. 译文：当有机会作为交换生去北京学习时，我立刻抓住了这个机会。 分析：本句是复合句。When there was a chance to study in Beijing as an exchange student是时间状语从句，其中When是引导词，there was a chance to do sth.是固定句型，表示“有机会做某事”；I took it at once是主句，其中I是主语，took是谓语动词，it指代前面的chance，at once是时间状语。 译文 我从小就非常喜欢中国文化。当有机会作为交换生到北京学习时，我立刻抓住了这个机会。在北京的头24小时里，我感到非常紧张。我没看到一个外国人。但在我上学的第一天，迎接我的是许多外国面孔。这些学生来自世界各地。我将和来自挪威的切尔西以及来自我的祖国——英国的查理在一个班级。 我们之前都没有学过中文，但我们的语言技能提高得很快。到第一个月月底的时候，我们都能造简单的句子了。不过，有些句子相当有趣。我们常常把我们的语文老师索菲逗得哈哈大笑。我们一起度过了一段快乐的时光。 第一个月非常累人。有太多新东西要学。值得庆幸的是，我们学校为学生组织了很多活动。我们聊了很多关于文化差异和我们未来的计划。这对我们来说是一个练习说中文的好机会。 10月份，我的中国朋友振华带我游览了这座城市。他带我去了一些他最喜欢的餐馆。中国的餐桌礼仪和西方的大不相同。吃中国菜就像一场冒险，这也成了我在北京生活中最喜欢的部分。 我在中国为期六个月的停留让我很兴奋。我想再次访问中国，去寻找更多的冒险经历。 核心词汇 ①Chinese adj. 中国的；n. 中文，汉语；中国人 ②culture n. 文化 ③exchange n. 交换，交流；adj. 交换的；v. 交换，交流 ④student n. 学生 ⑤nervous adj. 紧张的 ⑥foreigner n. 外国人 ⑦greet v. 问候，迎接 ⑧world n. 世界 ⑨language n. 语言 ⑩skill n. 技能，技巧 ⑪improve v. 提高，改善 ⑫sentence n. 句子 ⑬funny adj. 有趣的，滑稽的 ⑭laughter n. 笑声 ⑮tiring adj. 累人的，令人疲倦的 ⑯organize v. 组织 ⑰event n. 事件，活动 ⑱difference n. 差异，不同 ⑲manners n. 礼仪，礼貌 ⑳adventure n. 冒险，奇遇 Passage B （2023·湖北十堰·中考真题） Mike, Germany I stayed with my host family for three weeks in China.

However, traditions are not the same in every country. As a European living in China, I’ve seen some interesting differences. For example, while fruit and milk are common gifts here, in my culture, they might be a better choice when you are visiting someone in the hospital. When you get invited to a dinner party, a bottle of fine wine is also a good gift. Still, it’s best to check if your hosts drink alcohol (酒). Many Europeans will typically open their presents right away, except in places like Germany. It’s also important to take off the price tag (标签). What if you don’t like your gift? In Spain, you still need to say you love the gift to avoid hurting the other person’s feelings. But if they remember to leave the receipt (收据) inside the gift, which is a very common practice in Spain, you can just exchange it for something else. Re-gifting (礼物转送) is another good idea, as long as the present looks new. Jennifer Molski from Chicago has turned re-gifting into a nice project, collecting gifts people didn’t want for those in need, CBS News reported. How the present looks is also important. However, by using wrapping paper (包装纸) for every present we buy, we produce a lot of waste. Germans value high-quality (高品质的) wrapping paper, but many are now choosing newspaper or maps to help the environment. Do Europeans give money as gifts? Yes. Polish couples, for example, often request cash (现金) at weddings (婚礼) to cover the cost of the venue (场地) and meals. Finally, remember: It’s the thought that counts, not the size or the cost of the gift. 1．What might be a good gift to take to someone in the hospital in the author’s culture? A．Books. B．Fruit. C．Some cash. D．A bottle of fine wine. 2．Why do some Spanish people leave the receipt inside presents? A．To show the price of the gift. B．To make it easier to re-gift the item. C．To show respect to the receiver. D．To allow the receiver to exchange the gift. 3．How can people deal with the gift they don’t like, according to Paragraph 6? A．They can sell it. B．They can return it to the giver. C．They can give it to someone else. D．They can take it back to the store. 4．What is the passage mainly about? A．The gift-giving culture in different countries. B．Recent changes in gift-giving in Europe. C．Why we should re-gift unwanted presents. D．How people in Spain give and receive gifts. 【答案】1．B 2．D 3．C 4．A 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了不同国家的送礼文化，包括在不同场合下送什么样的礼物合适，以及如何处理不喜欢的礼物等内容。 1．细节理解题。根据第二段中的“For example, while fruit and milk are common gifts here, in my culture, they might be a better choice when you are visiting someone in the hospital.”可知，在作者的文化中，去医院看望病人时，水果和牛奶可能是更好的选择。故选B。 2．细节理解题。根据第五段中的“But if they remember to leave the receipt (收据) inside the gift, which is a very common practice in Spain, you can just exchange it for something else.”可知，西班牙人在礼物里放收据是为了让收礼人可以更换礼物。故选D。 3．细节理解题。根据第六段中的“Re-gifting (礼物转送) is another good idea, as long as the present looks new.”可知，如果不喜欢收到的礼物，可以将其转送给其他人，只要礼物看起来是新的。故选C。 4．主旨大意题。根据第一段中的“However, traditions are not the same in every country.”以及全文内容可知，文章主要介绍了不同国家的送礼文化。故选A。 Passage D （23-24八年级上·广东深圳·期末）During my first year of learning Chinese, I found that my high school had a sister-school-exchange program (项目) in Nanjing, China. Every summer, some students can study there and stay with host families for two and a half weeks. When I first heard about the chance to go to China, I knew I couldn’t miss it out. Fast forward to a summer, I waved bye to my family and flew to Beijing. In the first morning in China, I experienced a Chinese breakfast unlike anything I had ever tried. We spent three days in Beijing, going around the city and visiting famous landmarks. The highlight of our trip was the Great Wall. Seeing it in person for the first time was amazing even though I had seen hundreds of videos and pictures before. After our three days in Beijing, we took a bullet train to Nanjing, where we would stay with our host families and attend classes given by our sister school. Although my host family did not speak English, they were super welcoming, which made me feel at home. On weekdays, we attended different classes at our sister school, including cooking, music, Kung Fu, custom (习俗), art, etc. I learned a lot about Chinese culture and how different it is from the American lifestyle. Although the study has been over, I am forever thankful to my high school for giving me the opportunity to exchange in China and to immerse (沉浸) myself in its culture and meet amazing friends who I still keep in touch with to this day. I hope that one day I will have the chance to return to China and perhaps even live there at some point in my life! 1．How many days may the exchange program last? A．24 days. B．18 days. C．14 days.

C．Because the writer first saw the real Great Wall. D．Because the writer had seen it in videos and pictures. 3．What can we learn from Paragraph 2 and 3? A．The writer loved her trip in China. B．The writer loved eating Chinese breakfast. C．The writer flew from Beijing to Nanjing. D．The writer went to China with her parents. 4．According to the writer, what are the exciting parts of being exchange students? ①Leaving their parents.        ②Staying in a host family. ③Knowing about a different culture.    ④Making friends with local people. A．①② B．②③ C．③④ D．①④ 5．Where can we probably read this passage? A．In a novel. B．In a newspaper. C．In a film website. D．In a blog. 【答案】1．B 2．C 3．A 4．C 5．D 【导语】本文主要讲述了作者在高中时参加了一个去中国的交换生项目。 1．细节理解题。根据第一段“Every summer, some students can study there and stay with host families for two and a half weeks.”可知，交换生项目会持续两个半星期，结合选项，可能是18天，故选B。 2．细节理解题。根据第二段“Seeing it in person for the first time was amazing even though I had seen hundreds of videos and pictures before.”可知，作者认为旅行的亮点是长城的原因是，这是她第一次亲眼看到真实的长城，故选C。 3．推理判断题。根据第二段“The highlight of our trip was the Great Wall. Seeing it in person for the first time was amazing”和第三段“Although my host family did not speak English, they were super welcoming, which made me feel at home...I learned a lot about Chinese culture and how different it is from the American lifestyle.”可推知，作者喜欢她的中国之旅。故选A。 4．细节理解题。根据最后一段“I am forever thankful to my high school for giving me the opportunity...to immerse (沉浸) myself in its culture and meet amazing friends who I still keep in touch with to this day.”可知，根据作者的说法，作为交换生令人激动的地方是了解一种不同的文化，以及和当地人交朋友，故选C。 5．推理判断题。通读全文可知，文章主要讲述了作者在中国做交换生的经历，由此推测，我们可能在博客上看到这篇文章，故选D。 Passage E 以下是一则短文，请阅读全文，并从下文后的六个选项中选择五个还原到原文中，使原文的意思完整、连贯。 From unfamiliar food to the foreign language, adjusting (调整) to life at an American university can be challenging for international students.
