Downey's mother spent one year studying abroad through an international exchange program
with a French school.She often talked about how exciting and interesting the experience was.
So,even before finishing high school,Downey had decided to follow suit one day.
Downey began studying architecture at Lehigh University in Bethlehem,Pennsylvania
in 2004.Near the end of her second year,she started to feel unhappy with her school and
decided it was time to study abroad.
U.S.colleges and universities commonly have joint programs with foreign schools that
permit student exchanges.These programs usually last half a school year or sometimes a
whole school year.The classes students take abroad usually give them credits toward their
degree.In a four-year degree program,the third year is the most common time for
American college students to study abroad.Many students think they need a change before
what is usually their final and most difficult year of study.
Downey said her school did not want her to go at first.The architecture program at
Lehigh was very intense,and her professors were worried she might miss learning
important material.However,she was eventually able to get special permission to study
internationally for a whole year.During the fall term in 2006,she attended a Danish
international school in Copenhagen,Denmark,explaining she did so because Danish
architects are well known for their housing design.
Young adult as she was,she had to deal with travel documents and many other issues
(on her own.Overcoming the language barrier is the biggest challenge of studying
abroad.However,she had a lot of emotional (and financial support from her
family.She learned life lessons and made friends and memories that have lasted to this
day.She said,"The more you're out of your comfort zone,the more rewarding the
experience is in the end.

Maryland.It has thousands of pumpkins,including a pumpkin patch where people can pick

The traditional Chinese Longtaitou Festival,or Dragon-Head-Raising Festival,falls
on the second day of the second lunar month every year,and recognizes the start of spring
and farming.This year it falls on March 8.
Ancient people believed that after this day,rainfall increases because the rain-bringing
Dragon King has awakened from his winter sleep.A well-known phrase goes,"Er yue er,
long tai tou,"meaning,"On the second day of the second month,the dragon lifts his
head”
The festival celebrates ancient agrarian Chinese culture,and while some of traditional
ways to celebrate it are no longer practiced,others continue to exist.
The most famous tradition is getting a haircut.Some believe that going to the barber
on this day gets rid of bad luck,while others believe getting a haircut during the first
month of the lunar calendar brings bad luck.Another saying warns that cutting your hair
in the first month will cause your uncle to die.Although today few pay attention to it,it
was once a tradition to line up outside barbershops on the day of Longtaitou.
People eat tofu balls in East China's Fujian province during the festival,and often
make tofu and vegetable balls to pray for family and business.Fried beans are the
28
traditional festival food for people in parts of Shandong province.Eating chengyao cakes,
which are made with sticky rice,during the festival is a tradition in Suzhou,East China's
Jiangsu province,owing to the saying,"If you eat chengyao on Longtaitou,your waist
won't hurt all year."Meanwhile other foods,like noodles,dumplings,and spring rolls,
are named after dragon body parts to mark the day.Noodles are dragon's beard (long xu),
dumplings are dragon's ears (long er),spring rolls dragon's scales (long lin).

Culture shock refers to the anxiety and feelings (of surprise,uncertainty,confusion,etc.
people feel when they have to operate within a different and unknown cultural or social
environment,such as a foreign country.
Generally speaking,we could say that there are four stages of culture shock.The first
stage is called "the honeymoon".In this stage,you are excited about living in a different
place.36
The next stage is“the hostility(敌意)stage'”.In this stage,you begin to notice not
everything is as good as you originally thought it was.37 Moreover,people don't treat
you like a guest anymore.
Then you come to the third stage called "recovery".In this stage,you start to feel
more positive.38 The whole situation starts to become more favorable and you begin
to learn to adapt yourself to it.
The last stage of culture shock is called "adjustment".In this stage,you have reached
a point where you actually feel good.You have learned enough to understand the new
29
culture.The things that originally (made you feel uncomfortable or strange are now
things that you understand.39
Not all individuals visiting another country will experience all these four stages.40 It also
occurs within cultures as individuals move from place to place or from one setting to
another (e.g.,from high school to college).
A.You feel that friends should help each other to deal with culture shock.
B.And you come to understand everything you don't understand.
C.In addition,culture shock is not limited to the overseas visitor.
D.You become tired of many things about the new culture.
E.Now you have adjusted to the new culture and you feel comfortable.
F.You begin to understand you need to travel a lot.
G.And everything seems to be wonderful and everybody seems to be so nice to you.

The day before my daughter Norah's fourth birthday,something she said
foreshadowed a remarkable event.I'd just picked her up from preschool when she
cautioned me not to mind the elderly person walking across the parking lot at a glacier's
pace.She went on to explain that she had a soft spot for old folks:"I like old people best
because they walk slowly like I do and they have soft skin as I do.They are all gonna die
soon,so I'm gonna love them before they die."I was struck by her thoughtfulness and
sympathy.
The following day-her birthday-again on the way home from school,she asked if
we could stop at the grocery store to buy cupcakes for her and her six siblings to enjoy after
dinner.How can you say no to a birthday girl?I popped Norah and her younger sister into
one of those car-shaped grocery carts and headed toward the bakery.After we picked up
the cupcakes,I stopped at a shelf that caught my eye.While I was distracted,Norah was
busy standing up in the cart,excitedly waving and gleefully proclaiming,"Hi,old person!
It's my birthday today!"The man was elderly,with his weather-beaten face.However,
before I could shush her,he stopped and turned to her.If he was troubled by my innocent
child,he would show it.His expression was softened as he replied,"Well,hello,little
lady!And how old are you today?"They chatted for a few minutes,he wished her a happy
birthday,and we went our separate ways.A few minutes later,she turned to me and
asked,"Can I take a picture with the old man for my birthday?"It was the cutest thing
ever,and although I wasn't sure if he'd be willing to,I told her we'd certainly ask.
Paragraph 1:
We found the man a couple of aisles over,and I approached him.
Paragraph 2:
After a few minutes,I thanked Mr.Dan for spending a bit of time with us.
32Paragraph 2:
Many years later,Mr.Rowe and I were
surprised when a handsome young man walked
into our classroom,dressed in the army
uni form.The young man stood tall and proud.
It was Steven!Mr.Rowe and I couldn't believe
our eyes.He saluted and hugged Mr.Rowe
tightly!“I have come back to school today just
to say thanks to you!"It is my hope that every
teacher is blessed with such a wonderful
experience of a former student coming back to
say,simply to say a very simple THANKS.

参考范文:
Paragraph 1:
We found the man a couple of aisles over,
and I approached him."Excuse me,sir?This
is Norah,and she'd like to know if you'd take a
picture with her for her birthday."His
expression changed from confused to stunned to
delighted..“A picture?With me?”he asked.
“Yes,for my birthday!”Norah pleased.And
he agreed.I pulled out my smartphone,and
they posed together.She placed her soft hand
on top of his hand.He wordlessly stared at her
with twinkling eyes as she kept his hand in hers
and studied his skinny arms and weather-beaten
hands.I asked his name and he told us to call
him Dan.
Paragraph 2:
After a few minutes,I thanked Mr.Dan
for spending a bit of time with us.Tears in
his eyes,he said,"No,thank you.This is the
best day I've had for a long time."He turned to
my daughter."You've made me so happy,Miss
Norah.They hugged tightly and they were
chatting like long-lost friends.There was magic
happening in the grocery store that day and I'd be
lying to you if I said I wasn't weepy at that moment.
I was sure his heart was touched by my little girl,
and that he would never forget it.
