Reading comprehension（阅读理解选择题）（12分） Read the passage and choose the best answer for each question. When Japanese teenager Yuki Sato travelled to France for the first time, she experienced something unexpected — "culture shock." In Japan, people bow to greet each other. In France, people kiss on both cheeks. Yuki was confused. "I didn't know if I should bow, shake hands, or kiss," she laughed. "I ended up doing a little bit of everything!" Culture shock is a common feeling when people travel to a country with different customs. It can include confusion, anxiety, and even homesickness. However, experts say that culture shock is a natural part of the learning process. It means your mind is working hard to understand a new environment. There are four stages of culture shock. The first is the "honeymoon stage," when everything seems exciting and wonderful. Next comes the "frustration stage," when differences become difficult to handle. Then comes the "adjustment stage," when travellers begin to understand and accept the new culture. Finally, there is the "adaptation stage," when people feel comfortable and can even enjoy the differences. Yuki experienced all four stages during her year in France. At first, she loved the beautiful architecture and delicious food. But then she missed Japanese food and felt frustrated by the language barrier. Gradually, she made French friends and learned to appreciate French culture. By the end of her stay, she felt completely at home. "Now I understand that culture shock is not a bad thing," Yuki says. "It's actually a sign of growth. Every time you feel confused or uncomfortable, you are learning something new about the world and about yourself." 1. What is the main idea of the passage? A. Traveling to France is difficult for Japanese people. B. Culture shock is a normal and natural experience when travelling. C. Japanese people should not travel to Western countries. D.

The frustration stage. C. The adjustment stage. D. The adaptation stage. 5. What does Yuki think about culture shock now? A. It is a bad thing that should be avoided. B. It is a sign of personal growth and learning. C. It only happens to Japanese people. D. It means she should go back home immediately. 6. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A.

Maria, a 15-year-old student from Brazil, participated in a cultural exchange programme in South Korea last year. It was her first time visiting Asia, and she was both excited and nervous about the experience. When Maria arrived in Seoul, she was immediately impressed by the city's modern architecture and efficient public transportation. However, she soon realised that there were many cultural differences to adapt to. For example, in Brazil, people are used to hugging and kissing when they meet friends. But in South Korea, bowing is the traditional greeting. Maria accidentally hugged her host mother on the first day, which made both of them feel a bit awkward. After apologising, Maria learned to bow politely. Another challenge was the food. Maria was used to eating with a fork and knife at home, but in Korean culture, people use chopsticks and spoons. At first, Maria struggled to eat noodles with chopsticks. However, her host sister patiently taught her, and after a week, Maria became quite skilled. Maria also noticed differences in communication styles. Brazilians are known for being expressive and loud, while Koreans tend to speak more softly and indirectly. Maria had to learn to adjust her volume and be more careful with her words. Despite these challenges, Maria's exchange experience was extremely rewarding. She made many Korean friends, learned to speak basic Korean, and developed a deep appreciation for Korean culture. "The experience taught me that cultural differences are not barriers," Maria said. "They are opportunities to learn and grow." Task 1: Answer the following questions. 1.

Writing（写作）（10分） 范文： Dear Alex, How's everything going? I'd like to share a cross-cultural experience that really opened my eyes. Last summer, I took part in a student exchange programme in Singapore. It was my first time living with a host family from a different cultural background. One thing that surprised me was the dining etiquette. In my host family's home, we always ate with chopsticks and shared dishes from the centre of the table. At first, I was nervous about using chopsticks properly, but my host sister patiently taught me. I also noticed that they always waited for the eldest person to start eating before everyone else began — a custom I had never thought about before. This experience taught me that every culture has its own beauty. Learning about these differences doesn't mean we have to change who we are — it just means we become more understanding and respectful of others. I believe this is what makes our world so fascinating and harmonious. Have you had any similar experiences? I'd love to hear about them! Yours, Li Ming 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
