Travelling abroad一、阅读理解。When Marine Hayashi first arrived at American University in 2013,she was a little afraid.“I got homesick and I cried almost every day when I was in freshman year.And also,since English is my second language,I worked very hard.” Hayashi is originally from Hokkaido in the north of Japan.After three years at an international high school,she decided to attend a university in the U.S.Also,both of her parents earned graduate degrees from universities in the U.S. It was not long before Hayashi started enjoying her life as an international student.Joining three student groups helped her make friends from the U.S.and other countries. Hayashi will graduate next year with a fouryear degree in munication Studies.Her university experience is different from that of many young people around the world,though.Hayashis parents are paying for all of her tuition.The cost of an undergraduate degree program as an international student at American University is $61,157 a year. Not all international students have enough money to pay full tuition.Many international students are finding other ways to pay the high cost.Some students avoid the cost pletely. Students usually ask for financial aid when they first apply to a university.Most universities decide which students receive financial aid based on students academic history. The cost for international students at most U.S.universities is higher than it is for citizens.But the yearly tuition at University of Wisconsin-River Falls for international students is $22,000.This is the same tuition rate for students who are citizens from states other than Wisconsin.Also,international students immediately receive $2,000 a year in financial aid once the university accepts them.Students who perform well academically can receive up to $4,000 after their first year. Studying in a country that is not your own country can be difficult.Life can be lonely and the cost may be high.But Hayashi says that the experience is worth it.1.What was Hayashi going to do after three years at a high school in the U.S.?A.Go to an American international high school.B.Work hard at her second languageEnglish.C.Receive her college education in the U.S.D.Help her parents earn graduate degrees.2.How can international students get financial aid?A.By asking a university for free education.B.By finding universities with scholarships.C.By applying to a university for a scholarship.D.By presenting a wonderful academic history.3.Whats Hayashis attitude towards her study in the United States?A.Positive.B.Optimistic.C.Critical.D.Grateful.参考答案： 1.C; 2.C; 3.A解析： 1.推理判断题。在美国上了三年高中之后,Hayashi决定在美国读大学。由第二段第二句After three years at an international high school,she decided to attend a university in the U.S.得出。2.推理判断题。外国学生可以向大学申请奖学金。由第六段第一句Students usually ask for financial aid when they first apply to a university得出。3.观点态度题。作者对自己在美国的留学经历持积极肯定态度。由最后一段最后一句But Hayashi says that the experience is worth it得出。二、单句语法填空1Choosing an _ (occupy) takes time, and there are a lot of things you have to think about.答案：occupationoccupy为动词“占用；占领；占据”；occupation名词“占领；职业；工作”。由设空前的冠词an可知此处应填名词。2Were it not for science, we could not live a _ (fort) life.答案：fortable此处需用形容词修饰名词life。live a fortable life “过一种舒适的生活”。3It is _ (acknowledge) that China has bee one of the strongest countries in the world.答案：acknowledgedIt is acknowledged that . “人们认为/据认为”。4I remend him _ (think) very carefully before he does anything foolish.答案：to thinkremend sb. to do . “建议某人做某事”。5It is required that the new employees _ (provide) safety training before they start to work.答案：(should) be providedIt is required that .

left是“你还剩下多长时间”的意思，left用作后置定语。故选B项。2C根据该空后的people older than me可判断，作者以为父(母)亲垂死这件事只会发生在比他年龄更大的人身上。故选C项。3Din doubt意为“怀疑”；in anger意为“生气地”；in vain 意为“徒劳无益地”；in shock意为“震惊地；吃惊地”。听到父亲患癌这件事，作者当然是长时间地感到震惊。故选D项。刷有所得方法：做完形填空题时，有些题要注意该空前后的介词、副词等。有时需要分别把选项与前后的介词、副词相搭配，再判断它们搭配后哪个短语的意思更符合上下文的逻辑。4A根据下文But there was nothing I could do.可知，作者什么都做不了，由此可推测，此处指作者感到无能为力。powerless意为“无能为力的”；nervous意为“紧张不安的；焦虑的”；lost意为“迷路的；不知所措的”；bored意为“厌烦的；烦闷的”。根据语境可知选A项。5A根据下文and take the cancer out可知，此处指作者希望可以进入父亲的身体拿走癌细胞。reach into意为“伸进；伸入”；turn

things havent gone well及I remember all the offers of help.可知，当事情进展不顺利时，父亲会主动提供帮助，因此可知，父亲是关心儿子的。power意为“力量；权力”；anger意为“愤怒；生气”；curiosity意为“好奇心”；concern意为“担心；忧虑”。故选D项。16D结合下文I wish you could tell me youre _ and I could tell you I love you.可知，作者希望父亲能够告诉他父亲是如何想的，作者也能告诉父亲作者爱他。由此可推测，此处指作者希望能够与父亲谈论他们对彼此意味着(mean)什么。故选D项。17C根据上文的your proud looks可知，此处指作者希望父亲能够告诉他父亲为他而自豪。conservative意为“守旧的；保守的”；brave意为“勇敢的”；proud 意为“骄傲的；自豪的”；helpful

She brings us a lot of fun and happiness._答案：fort前加afort表示“舒适；舒服；安慰”讲时为不可数名词，作“令人安慰的人或事”讲时为可数名词，即此处为“抽象名词具体化”的用法。2Occupying with various research projects all day, he was tired out._答案：OccupyingOccupied(be) occupied with . “忙着做；忙于某事物”，形容词短语在句中作状语。3Since he arrived in Beijing, he has adjusted to eat the northern food gradually._答案：eateating该词组中的to为介词，故后接名词或动名词。adjust to (doing) sth. “适应(做)某事”。4The question that many students are puzzled about is how improve their oral English._答案：how后加to“特殊疑问词to do不定式短语”在该句中作表语。5Charlie chaplin is acknowledged of one of the most outstanding edians in the history of cinema._答案：第一个ofasbe acknowledged as . “被公认为/被认为是”。五、短文改错In the village where I grew up, everyone knew an old man, that spent all his time in painting. People that lived in the village used to admiring his works and he often gave his paintings to his friends. Whether he was offered money, he would never take it. He said he painted for a pleasure. He once gave one of his paintings to my father, who actually wasnt interesting in art. Years later I found at our old house. By that time the old man had died and people had started to recognize his paintings as great work of art, which were worth lots of money. So an art gallery make me an offer of $ 5，000 for this painting and I nearly sold it, so then I decided not to. It reminds me of my childhood and of the old man who didnt real want to make money by painting.答案：In the village where I grew up, everyone knew an old man, spent all his time in painting.
