Many international students studying abroad in America have several supposed ideas about American culture. After visiting the country, many international students showed the culture shock they received in America. Here are some culture shocks in America that most of the international students came across.
It's surprising to note that kids, the youth and adults refer to each other with their first names, This is a very uncommon sight. Many international students might find it surprising and take time to adjust to this tradition.
Another culture shock is that, in America, there could be only one or two classes a day. Usually, they’re conducted in the afternoon or in the evening. This means the students get enough time to sleep late, wake up around noon and have time for different chores (琐事). Besides, having convenience in the schedule of classes, students also enjoy long hours of breaks.
Among the many culture shocks in America, multiple languages are quite common there. Many international students would move to America, believing that the only language is English. However, that's not the case. The citizens commonly speak languages such as Spanish, French, German, Chinese and others, So if you're comfortable with any of the above-mentioned languages, you might get surprises.
Many international students are used to using kilograms, metres, litres, degrees centigrade as the units of weight, length, volume, temperature. But they might be perplexed to see a different metric system in America. There, pounds, feet and Fahrenheit are usually used as units for measurements. This system is quite puzzling to comprehend at the beginning for many international students.
Many international students might find various culture shocks in America depending on the background they come from. Thus, they may need a long time to adjust themselves to the unfamiliar environment.
4. What may make international students surprised at school?
A. Adults are often referred to with their titles.
B. The number of classes is fewer than expected.
C. Kids refer to adults with their family names.
D. Students can freely do different chores in class.
5. Why do international students care little about language barriers in America?
A. English there is easy to understand.
B. All of them can speak English fluently.
C. There are several other official languages.
D. They may be able to use their native languages there.
6. Wat does the underlined word “perplexed” mean in paragraph 5?
A. Interested. B. Frightened. C. Confused. D. Excited.
7 What is the best title for the text?
A. Multicultural Experiences Are Waiting for You
B. International Students Are Welcome to America
C. Culture Shocks International Students May Experience in America
D. Reasons Why There Are a Large Number of Culture Shocks in America
C
The idea of having a part car, part plane, part drone (无人飞机) parked outside your home may not be as unlikely as it seems.
We are going to have personal air vehicles that are both cars and planes. At least that’s Missy Cummings’ vision of the future. Its basically the intersection (交叉) of a drone with a robotic car, so your plane is also your car, but the quick development of technology is that you are actually driving neither.
Drones have a negative image in the media, says Cummings, because they are basically seen as spy cameras. But most people don’t realize that when they are on a plane they are effectively travelling on a drone. The fly-by-wire technology that exists on all Airbuses and many Boeing crafts the exactly same technology that exists on drones.
The reason why drones are the answer to the future is that we are terrible drivers. Humans have a half-second lag (延迟) in almost any quick response that they need to have. Even a half second delay can mean the difference between life and death and computers and automated (自动化的) systems don’t have that.
So, our transportation network of the future, both on the ground and in the air, will actually be safer when we turn it over to computers.
There really aren’t any technological difficulties to this idea. The biggest difficulties we have are psychological and cultural in terms of giving up the car, but no new technology needs to be developed to have your own personal flying car. What we have to do is improve production and reduce manufacturing costs.
People should be excited about this: it promises much in terms of safer travel, and people in parts of the world where the road and air networks are poor will be able to get the goods and services.
8. Most people don’t know that .
A. we neednt drive a flying car B. drones are actually spy cameras
C. planes are much safer than flying cars D. the technology on drones is used on planes
9. According to the author, what makes drones the best choice in the future?
A. Their low costs. B. Their high speed.
C. Their quick response. D. Their modern comfort.
10. What will most probably prevent the popularity flying cars in the future?
A. Their being expensive. B. Lacking advanced technology.
C. People’s not accepting the idea. D. People’s failing to improve production.
11. Whars the best title of the passage?
A. Future Vehicles B. Future Flying Cars
C. An Answer to the Future D. Safer Travel
D
Many people within the deaf community use sign language as a method to communicate visually. Unfortunately, the lack of signs about the climate had created a barrier for the disabled community. That has changed recently with the British Sign Language (BSL) updating its vocabulary with 200 new words.
There are nearly 300 sign languages around the world, with the famous ones being the American Sign Language (ASL), the British Sign Language (BSL), and the Australian Sign Language (Auslan) for native English speakers.
The use of hands in sign language to represent individual letters is called ‘fingerspelling’. While some common words like “car” have signs, a specific car like Tesla would need to be spelled out as “t-e-s-1-a”. Sign language has developed over the years as society and technology changed — the word for telephone, for example, is very different today than 100 years ago!
However, for deaf students, the lack of scientific terms has always been a handicap. They have felt held back from understanding and learning, simply because they did not have enough vocabulary to use in discussions. In 2012, researchers first developed 116 signs for scientific words such as “mass” and “X-ray” which were eventually added to the BSL.
In the U. S., Mandy Houghton, a teacher at the School for the Deaf and Blind in Florida, attended a summer program for science. She noticed that it was difficult to participate as she felt unable to communicate accurate terms. Only 20% of the chemistry terms used were a part of sign language! Houghton acknowledged the gap in scientific vocabulary and has made it her mission to expand American Sign Language(ASL)to be more inclusive.
As climate change becomes increasingly obvious so does the information and education surrounding it. Including new vocabulary that focuses on these topics, allows the deaf community to have access to valuable knowledge and empowers them to learn and take action.
In the fight against climate crises, the new developments in ASL and BSL have a huge significance in creating a better future for everyone.
12. What can we learn about the sign language according to the text?
A. There are three noted sign languages. B. It has a history of exactly 100 years.
C. A sign language is made up of 200 words. D. The same sign may have different meanings.
13. What does the underlined word “handicap” in paragraph 4 probably mean?
A. Puzzle. B. Barrier. C. Preference. D. Task.
14. How did Houghton feel in the summer program?
A. Satisfied. B. Proud. C. Ashamed. D. Confused.
15. What can be the best title for the passage?
A. The ASL Is Changing With Time
B. The Sign Language Benefits the Deaf
C. The Sign Language Is Adapting to Times
D. The Deaf Community Fights Against Climate Change

It was a sunny summer day when a group of college students were spending a relaxing afternoon at the beach. Among them was Emily, an adventurous and free-spirited young woman with a love for the ocean. Eager to cool off from the heat, she walked into the nice waves without thinking.
Emily didn’t know that the current was stronger than she thought. When she swam further from the shore, she started to feel scared. The beach, which she knew well before, seemed far away and strange, and she couldnˈt swim back. She was really worried when she realized she was stuck at sea.
As each hour passed, Emily’s situation got more dangerous. Night came, and the big ocean became a frightening and dangerous place. The waves threw her around without pity, and she held to a small swim ring tightly (紧紧地), which was her only hope in the big sea.
For one day and one night, Emily fought against the bad weather. She was getting weaker. She was very hungry and thirsty. She was scared, but she used all her willpower to stay above the water, hoping for the best.
At the same time, Emily’s friends found out she was missing and quickly told the police. The search and rescue work started right away. Helicopters flew over the beach and boats looked all over the big ocean. Emily’s best friend, Sarah, didn’t lose hope. She helped the police all the time, giving them any information she thought might be useful.
As the hours turned into days, Sarah’s strong belief that Emily was alive touched the hearts of the search teams. No effort was wasted as the whole community came together and watched the sea carefully.

Many international students studying abroad in America have several supposed ideas about American culture. After visiting the country, many international students showed the culture shock they received in America. Here are some culture shocks in America that most of the international students came across.
It's surprising to note that kids, the youth and adults refer to each other with their first names, This is a very uncommon sight. Many international students might find it surprising and take time to adjust to this tradition.
Another culture shock is that, in America, there could be only one or two classes a day. Usually, they’re conducted in the afternoon or in the evening. This means the students get enough time to sleep late, wake up around noon and have time for different chores (琐事). Besides, having convenience in the schedule of classes, students also enjoy long hours of breaks.
Among the many culture shocks in America, multiple languages are quite common there. Many international students would move to America, believing that the only language is English. However, that's not the case. The citizens commonly speak languages such as Spanish, French, German, Chinese and others, So if you're comfortable with any of the above-mentioned languages, you might get surprises.
Many international students are used to using kilograms, metres, litres, degrees centigrade as the units of weight, length, volume, temperature. But they might be perplexed to see a different metric system in America. There, pounds, feet and Fahrenheit are usually used as units for measurements. This system is quite puzzling to comprehend at the beginning for many international students.
Many international students might find various culture shocks in America depending on the background they come from. Thus, they may need a long time to adjust themselves to the unfamiliar environment.
4. What may make international students surprised at school?
A. Adults are often referred to with their titles.
B. The number of classes is fewer than expected.
C. Kids refer to adults with their family names.
D. Students can freely do different chores in class.
5. Why do international students care little about language barriers in America?
A. English there is easy to understand.
B. All of them can speak English fluently.
C. There are several other official languages.
D. They may be able to use their native languages there.
6. Wat does the underlined word “perplexed” mean in paragraph 5?
A. Interested. B. Frightened. C. Confused. D. Excited.
7. What is the best title for the text?
A. Multicultural Experiences Are Waiting for You
B. International Students Are Welcome to America
C. Culture Shocks International Students May Experience in America
D. Reasons Why There Are a Large Number of Culture Shocks in America
【答案】4. B 5. D 6. C 7. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍的是大多数国际学生在美国遇到的一些文化冲击。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“Another culture shock is that, in America, there could be only one or two classes a day. Usually, they’re conducted in the afternoon or in the evening.(另一个文化冲击是,在美国,一天可能只有一到两节课。通常,他们在下午或晚上进行。)”可知,在美国的学校,一天只有一到两节课,由此可知,在美国的课节数比预计的要少。故选B项。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中的“However, that’s not the case. The citizens commonly speak languages such as Spanish, French, German, Chinese and others. So if you’re comfortable with any of the above-mentioned languages, you might get surprises.(然而,事实并非如此。这里的居民通常会说西班牙语、法语、德语、汉语和其他语言,所以如果你对上述任何一种语言都很熟悉,你可能会感到惊讶。)”可知,美国的居民通常会说西班牙语、法语、德语、汉语和其他语言,由此可知,外国留学生如果对以上语言熟悉的话,就可以使用自己的母语与他们进行交流,因此不太在意语言障碍。故选D项。
【6题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第五段中的“Many international students are used to using kilograms, metres, litres, degrees centigrade as the units of weight, length, volume, temperature.(许多国际学生习惯使用公斤、米、升、摄氏度作为重量、长度、体积、温度的单位。)”可知,划线词所在段落讲的是计量单位不同产生的文化冲击。根据划线后的句子“This system is quite puzzling to comprehend at the beginning for many international students.(对于许多国际学生来说,理解这一计量制度一开始很困惑的。)”可知,这个体系对于许多外国留学生来说理解起来还是很令人困惑的,结合划线单词后的“to see a different metric system in America.(在美国看到不同的公制系统)”是作状语修饰划线单词,表示他们看到这一公制系统后感觉“困惑”符合语境,由此可知,该划线单词的意思与“困惑”意思相近。故选C项。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。根据首段中的“Here are some culture shocks in America that most of the international students came across.(以下是大多数国际学生在美国遇到的一些文化冲击。)”结合下文中分别从称呼、上课及休息时长、所使用的语言、计量单位等方面展开遇到具体的文化冲击的介绍可知,本文主要讲述的是国际学生在美国可能经历的文化冲击,所以题目为“国际学生在美国可能经历的文化冲击”符合文章的主题。故选C项。
C
The idea of having a part car, part plane, part drone (无人飞机) parked outside your home may not be as unlikely as it seems.
We are going to have personal air vehicles that are both cars and planes. At least that’s Missy Cummings’ vision of the future. Its basically the intersection (交叉) of a drone with a robotic car, so your plane is also your car, but the quick development of technology is that you are actually driving neither.
Drones have a negative image in the media, says Cummings, because they are basically seen as spy cameras. But most people don’t realize that when they are on a plane they are effectively travelling on a drone. The fly-by-wire technology that exists on all Airbuses and many Boeing crafts the exactly same technology that exists on drones.
The reason why drones are the answer to the future is that we are terrible drivers. Humans have a half-second lag (延迟) in almost any quick response that they need to have. Even a half second delay can mean the difference between life and death and computers and automated (自动化的) systems don’t have that.
So, our transportation network of the future, both on the ground and in the air, will actually be safer when we turn it over to computers.
There really aren’t any technological difficulties to this idea. The biggest difficulties we have are psychological and cultural in terms of giving up the car, but no new technology needs to be developed to have your own personal flying car. What we have to do is improve production and reduce manufacturing costs.
People should be excited about this: it promises much in terms of safer travel, and people in parts of the world where the road and air networks are poor will be able to get the goods and services.
8. Most people don’t know that .
A. we neednt drive a flying car B. drones are actually spy cameras
C. planes are much safer than flying cars D. the technology on drones is used on planes
9. According to the author, what makes drones the best choice in the future?
A. Their low costs. B. Their high speed.
C. Their quick response. D. Their modern comfort.
10. What will most probably prevent the popularity flying cars in the future?
A. Their being expensive. B. Lacking advanced technology.
C. People’s not accepting the idea. D. People’s failing to improve production.
11. Whars the best title of the passage?
A. Future Vehicles B. Future Flying Cars
C. An Answer to the Future D. Safer Travel
【答案】8. D 9. C 10. C 11. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍未来的世界充满无限可能,会飞的汽车就是其中一种大胆的设想。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“But most people don’t realize that when they are on a plane they are effectively travelling on a drone. The fly-by-wire technology that exists on all Airbuses and many Boeing crafts the exactly same technology that exists on drones. (但大多数人没有意识到,当他们在飞机上时,他们实际上是在无人机上旅行。所有大型飞机和许多波音公司使用的电传飞行技术与无人机使用的技术完全相同。)”可知,许多人不知道我们所乘坐的飞机的科技跟无人驾驶飞机所使用的科技是一样的。故选D。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“The reason why drones are the answer to the future is that we are terrible drivers. Humans have a half-second lag (延迟) in almost any quick response that they need to have. Even a half second delay can mean the difference between life and death and computers and automated (自动化的) systems don’t have that. (无人机之所以是未来的答案,是因为我们都是糟糕的驾驶员。人类在几乎任何他们需要的快速反应中都会有半秒的延迟。哪怕是半秒的延迟也可能意味着生与死的差别,而计算机和自动化系统没有这一点。)”可知,无人驾驶飞机是未来的主流,主要原因在于控制它们的电脑比人脑反应快得多。故选C。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“The biggest difficulties we have are psychological and cultural in terms of giving up the car, but no new technology needs to be developed to have your own personal flying car. (我们面临的最大困难是放弃汽车的心理和文化问题,但不需要开发新的技术来拥有你自己的飞行汽车。)”可知,未来飞行汽车的普及面临的最大障碍不是科技,而是人们的心理和文化因素,即人们不接受这个想法。故选C。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段“We are going to have personal air vehicles that are both cars and planes. (我们将拥有兼具汽车和飞机两种功能的个人飞行器。)”及全文可知,短文主要介绍了未来飞行汽车的外观、技术、安全性,以及带来的便利性。这些都是围绕标题“Future Flying Cars(未来飞行汽车)”而展开的。故选B。

Many people within the deaf community use sign language as a method to communicate visually. Unfortunately, the lack of signs about the climate had created a barrier for the disabled community. That has changed recently with the British Sign Language (BSL) updating its vocabulary with 200 new words.
There are nearly 300 sign languages around the world, with the famous ones being the American Sign Language (ASL), the British Sign Language (BSL), and the Australian Sign Language (Auslan) for native English speakers.
The use of hands in sign language to represent individual letters is called ‘fingerspelling’. While some common words like “car” have signs, a specific car like Tesla would need to be spelled out as “t-e-s-1-a”. Sign language has developed over the years as society and technology changed — the word for telephone, for example, is very different today than 100 years ago!
However, for deaf students, the lack of scientific terms has always been a handicap. They have felt held back from understanding and learning, simply because they did not have enough vocabulary to use in discussions. In 2012, researchers first developed 116 signs for scientific words such as “mass” and “X-ray” which were eventually added to the BSL.
In the U. S., Mandy Houghton, a teacher at the School for the Deaf and Blind in Florida, attended a summer program for science. She noticed that it was difficult to participate as she felt unable to communicate accurate terms. Only 20% of the chemistry terms used were a part of sign language! Houghton acknowledged the gap in scientific vocabulary and has made it her mission to expand American Sign Language(ASL)to be more inclusive.
As climate change becomes increasingly obvious, so does the information and education surrounding it. Including new vocabulary that focuses on these topics, allows the deaf community to have access to valuable knowledge and empowers them to learn and take action.
In the fight against climate crises, the new developments in ASL and BSL have a huge significance in creating a better future for everyone.
12. What can we learn about the sign language according to the text?
A. There are three noted sign languages. B. It has a history of exactly 100 years.
C. A sign language is made up of 200 words. D. The same sign may have different meanings.
13. What does the underlined word “handicap” in paragraph 4 probably mean?
A. Puzzle. B. Barrier. C. Preference. D. Task.
14. How did Houghton feel in the summer program?
A. Satisfied. B. Proud. C. Ashamed. D. Confused.
15. What can be the best title for the passage?
A. The ASL Is Changing With Time
B. The Sign Language Benefits the Deaf
C. The Sign Language Is Adapting to Times
D. The Deaf Community Fights Against Climate Change
【答案】12. A 13. B 14. D 15. C
【解析】

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了最近在加拿大的一次会议上展示了一种新型的小型机器人相机,该相机可吞咽用于医学检查。
【36题详解】
考查副词。句意:最近在加拿大的一次会议上展示了一种新的小型机器人相机,其设计用于吞咽进行医学检查。空处修饰动词demonstrated,应用副词形式recently作状语。故填recently。
【37题详解】
考查名词所有格。句意:内窥镜是指连接在电线上的摄像头被引导到喉咙,进入睡眠患者的胃部。结合语意可知,此处表示“患者的”,需用名词的所有格形式patient’s。故填patient’s。
【38题详解】
考查时态和主谓一致。句意:开发人员说它是这样工作的:患者一天不吃东西,然后吞下装有大量水的PillBot。根据句中say和works可知,句子使用一般现在时,且本句使用完全倒装结构,how引导从句作主语,be动词使用is。故填is。
【39题详解】
考查冠词。句意:PillBot就像一艘由无线遥控器控制的小型潜艇。结合语意可知,此处表示一艘小型潜艇,空处应用不定冠词,且small是辅音音素开头的单词,前边应用不定冠词a。故填a。

考查被动语态。句意:他说:“如果内窥镜可以从医院转移到患者家中,那么我认为我们已经实现了这一目标。”move与主语endoscopies之间是被动关系,且情态动词can后接动词原形形式,即can be moved。故填be moved。
【43题详解】
考查比较级。句意:他补充说,该设备提供了“一种更安全、更舒适的方法”。空处与safer并列,表示更舒适的方法,所以空处应用形容词的比较级形式more comfortable。故填more comfortable。
【44题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:他说,PillBot可以帮助缺乏医疗中心和治疗的农村地区的人们。空处引导定语从句,修饰先行词rural areas,表示地点,关系词在从句中作地点状语,应用关系副词where引导从句。故填where。
【45题详解】
考查状语从句的省略。句意:如果获得批准,PillBot可能会在2026年上市。if条件句中,主语与主句主语the PillBot一致,且approved与主语the PillBot之间是被动关系,即be approved,状语从句中,从句主语与主句主语一致,且从句中含有be动词形式,则从句中的主语和be动词可省略。故填approved。

The Great composer Chopin
Of all the people I know, I admire Frederic Chopin most. Born in 1810, he was one of the greatest composers of all time.
Chopin’s talent for music showed at an early age. He learnt music at six, composed music at seven, and even gave public concerts at eight. By the time he was 20, the young musician had become a well-known composer. The following year Chopin moved to Paris, where he spent the rest of his life, earning a living as a composer and teacher.
Chopin, called “the poet of the piano”, composed about 200 pieces of music or so throughout his life. As a great composer, he will be remembered by people forever.

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
It was a sunny summer day when a group of college students were spending a relaxing afternoon at the beach. Among them was Emily, an adventurous and free-spirited young woman with a love for the ocean. Eager to cool off from the heat, she walked into the nice waves without thinking.
Emily didn’t know that the current was stronger than she thought. When she swam further from the shore, she started to feel scared. The beach, which she knew well before, seemed far away and strange, and she couldnˈt swim back. She was really worried when she realized she was stuck at sea.
As each hour passed, Emily’s situation got more dangerous. Night came, and the big ocean became a frightening and dangerous place. The waves threw her around without pity, and she held to a small swim ring tightly (紧紧地), which was her only hope in the big sea.
For one day and one night, Emily fought against the bad weather. She was getting weaker. She was very hungry and thirsty. She was scared, but she used all her willpower to stay above the water, hoping for the best.
At the same time, Emily’s friends found out she was missing and quickly told the police. The search and rescue work started right away. Helicopters flew over the beach and boats looked all over the big ocean. Emily’s best friend, Sarah, didn’t lose hope. She helped the police all the time, giving them any information she thought might be useful.
As the hours turned into days, Sarah’s strong belief that Emily was alive touched the hearts of the search teams. No effort was wasted as the whole community came together and watched the sea carefully.
注意:

【答案】 Finally, a fishing boat came across Emily, weak but still alive. The crew immediately pulled her aboard, providing her with nourishment and comfort. Emilyˈs rescue was met with tears of relief and overwhelming joy. The news that Emily had survived spread very fast. The community celebrated the triumph of the human spirit and the power of unwavering friendship. Sarah, who had been a constant presence throughout the search, rushed to Emily’s side, embracing her tightly. Their bond had been tested but never broken. From that day forward, Emily cherished every moment, never taking lifeˈs blessings for granted.
In the years after that, Emily and Sarah worked to educate people about water safety. They shared their frightening experience and promoted awareness to prevent similar incidents. And they told people how to save themselves at sea. Their story has inspired countless others, reminding them to respect the power of the ocean and the strength of the human will. As for Emily, she never forgets how much help and love she got when she was in trouble at sea. It was an experience that taught her what it really means to survive and the importance of the relationships we have with others.
