Her host family, the Thompsons,welcomed her warmly, but cultural misunderstandings soon appeared. On her first morning, Mrs. Thompson served baked beans and toast for breakfast. Xia politely ate a few bites, though the salty beans couldn’t satisfy her taste buds. Later, she whispered to her roommate Emma, “Do British people eat beans every morning?” Emma burst out laughing. “No! Mum thought you might miss Chinese breakfasts. She read online that beans are popular in Shanghai!” Xia realized Mrs. Thompson had mixed up Shanghai’s sweet red bean desserts with British baked beans. Another challenge turned up during a school project. Xia’s team needed to design a poster about climate solutions. While her British teammates freely debated (辩论) ideas, Xia hesitated (犹豫) to disagree with others, remembering her teachers’ advice in China: “Group harmony matters most.” Noticing her silence, the teacher Ms. Wilkins came up to her. “Your opinion is valuable, Xia. In Britain, respectful debates often lead to better solutions.” Taking a deep breath, Xia shared her idea of using algae (藻类) to take in carbon dioxide — a concept she’d learned from her scientist father. The team loved it and won the first prize. By the trip’s end, Xia had grown bolder. She even taught the Thompsons to make dumplings, laughing as Mr. Thompson accidentally dropped one on the cat. “Cultural exchange isn’t about being perfect,” she wrote in her diary. “It’s about listening, adapting (适应), and finding joy in the messy middle.” （ ）1. What was the main purpose of the Thompsons serving baked beans? A. To introduce traditional British food. B. To recreate a Shanghai-style breakfast. C. To make fun of Chinese eating habits. D. To test Xia’s adaptability. （ ）2. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined phrase “mixed up” in Paragraph 2? A. cooked carefully B. thought wrongly C. purposely replaced D. turned up （ ）3. Why did Xia avoid disagreeing with her teammates in the beginning? A. She lacked confidence in her English. B. She found their ideas perfect. C. She valued team harmony over debate. D. She disliked the teacher’s intervention (干涉). （ ）4. Which lesson did Xia learn from her experience? A. Cultural exchange requires avoiding mistakes. B. Perfect understanding between cultures is impossible. C. Adaptation and communication bridge cultural differences. D. Western education systems are better than others. （ ）5. How does the author organize the passage? A. By comparing British and Chinese customs. B. By asking questions and answering them. C. Through a personal growth story with examples. D. Through historical data of exchange programs. B My name is Brad Li. I’m here today to tell you about my experience as an exchange student in the United Stated States last year. I must admit that at first America was a big culture shook for me. Many things were strange to me: the language, the food and even the school. I stayed with a host family in a small town. My host parents, Mr and Mrs Hurst, were very kind. They organized a lot of activities for me in my spare time so that I wouldn’t miss home or feel lonely. However, to a certain degree, life in the US was hard to get used to. My main problem was with the language. I failed to understand much in the first few weeks because everyone spoke so fast. Though I soon managed to get used to it, I still had problems because they used a lot of idioms. For example, they often say they are “under the weather” when they are ill. Their everyday English is very different from what we learn in China. Another difference was the food. My host family always had bread, potatoes and salad for meals. I really missed the dumplings, rice and delicious dishes from home. School was a big shoock too. They do not require students to wear uniforms, so students can wear almost whatever they like. Some students have strange hairstyles as well. Some students even have pink or purple hair! Anyway, I have many great memories of that year, especially playing in the snow in winter, and playing baseball. At Halloween, I went to a party dressed as Harry Potter. At Thanksgiving, we had a big dinner with a huge turkey. It was an exciting year, and it was a valuable education for me. Now I understand more about American culture. My American friends asked me many questions about life in China, and this made me think about my own culture as well. （ ）1. What exciting experience did Brad have at Halloween? A. He went to a party dressed as Harry Potter. B. He had a big dinner with a huge turkey. C. He played in the snow with his friends. D. He played baseball with his friends. （ ）2. According to the passage, we know that ________. A. Brad Li has been to America before B. the Hursts organized many activities for Brad to improve his English C. Brad found it hard to understand American idioms D. Brad preferred American food to Chinese food （ ）3. What do you think the passage is? A. A novel. B. A speech. C. An interview. D. A notice. （ ）4. What’s the best title of the passage? A. Colorful life at school B. Living in another country C. Staying with a host family D. Good memories with friends 1 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
