For the first two years in New York I was really lost-having to study in three schools as a result of family moves. I did not quite know what I was or what I should be. Mother remarried, and things became even more complex for me. Some time passed before my stepfather and I got used to each other. I was often sad, and saw no end to "the hard times". My responsibilities in the family increased a lot since I knew English better than everyone else at home. I wrote letters, filled out forms, translated at interviews with Immigration officers, took my grandparents to the doctor and translated there, and even discussed telephone bills with company representatives. From my experiences I have learned one important rule: almost all common troubles eventually go away! Something good is certain to happen in the end when you do not give up , and just wait a little! I believe that my life will turn out all right, even though it will not be that easy.61.How did the author get to know America?A. From her relatives. B. Form books and pictures .C. Form her mother.

If it feels wrong, then most likely it is. says Price.Teens are in a time of life when they are still discovering who they are. Many teens are influenced by peer pressure because of their insecurities (不平安感).

According to the passage, we can know that dealing with peer pressure is A. easy B. hard C. a new topicD. an impossible taskCI have been teaching in the United States for three semesters. During this time, I have been very impressed with the hardworking American students. Tuition fee (学费) in American universities are pretty expensive. Most American students receive little, if any, financial support. As a result, they have to work hard to pay for their tuition and other basic expenses. Tertiary (高等) education is a necessity in todays workforce. Young people with higher education are rewarded with a good career and better salary. So how do American students support themselves?All my American students have to work to pay for their tuition. For this reason, most universities provide limited jobs for students who need economic help. They also help students search for jobs in the community. I have been touched to see some students are so worn out from their jobs that they doze in my classroom. In addition to taking part-time jobs, students are also expected to take part in various social and sporting activities and, in fact, those who do not take part in are often looked down upon by their peers. A number of American university students are married with families, or are single parents. These students are faced with the additional burden of raising a family. They have to spend much time, money and energy caring for their children and family. Most American university professors are strict. They test students on every unit in their course, in addition to mid-term and final exams in each semester. A lack of preparation by students may result in their failure. This means the loss of a lot of money and possibly future employment opportunities for these students. For this reason, many American students will study or stay up all night before an exam, in an effort to pass.In contrast, Chinese students have a much easier time, because most Chinese parents pay for their kids tertiary education. Moreover, Chinese students do not need to worry about raising children or maintaining a family. So, Chinese students have no reason for not studying hard and achieving good marks. 71. Which of the following is not the difficulty American students have to face?A. They have to work hard to pay for the high tuition fee.B. Many American students have a burden of a family.C. They need a better education to get a best job.D. They have to pass strict tests to complete their education.72. Which of the following statement is NOT TRUE according to the passage?A. American students have no time to think of physical exercise.B. Sporting activities are popular among American students.C. American students should take part in various social activities. D. Those who dont participate in social and sporting activities are usually unpopular with their peers. 73. Compared with American students, Chinese university students _. A. have no difficulty in raising a family B. live an easy life in universities C. dont have to take full-time jobsD. have more duty to make greater progress 74. This passage mainly deals with _. A. part-time jobs chosen by American studentsB. the high fees of American universities C. difficult lives American students have to face D. different opinions on American universitiesDSPECIAL EVENTS THIS WEEKENDCaptain Good FellowDo you enjoy interesting stories, funny games and exciting dances?
