Obviously, I learned the language and am now fluent, but perhaps whats more important was how much I learned about cu

Christina said she learned how to better speak for herself and her beliefs and to express herself in another language. W

Matthew said that he returned from studying in Australia with confidence, and a real interest in international affairs. After having gone abroad in hig
28、h school, I found the transition to college was a breeze moving 560 miles from home didnt seem difficult at all after having lived thousands of miles away. Speaking of college, improving your language skills might help you get into ideal colleges and even land future jobs. Colleges and employers kno
29、w that studying abroad provides leadership skills in a world that needs much communication. Most of all, its fun! You wont suffer from the general boredom (单调) while youre studying in a different learning environment.56. What do we know about Andrew?A. He once flew over the worlds highest waterfalls
30、.B. He took dancing lessons in Ghana.C. He learned about cultures in Caracas, Venezuela.D. He studied in France.57. According to Christina, studying abroad enables people to _.

33、nearby car factory today with my uncle, who works there. One thing I noticed was that most of the work is now done by robots. Welding (焊接), painting, testing, and many other jobs are performed by robots now. The whole dashboard (仪表板) of the car is now put into the car from above, through the windshi
34、eld, by a robot. It would have taken two men to do this in the past, and it would have hurt their backs quite a bit. It got me thinking: is it a good thing that robots are replacing factory workers? On one hand, robots generally do a more accurate job than people. They arent likely to make many mist
35、akes, and if something goes wrong with one car, an alarm goes off. They do exactly the same thing, every time, without fail. A human worker is never able to do exactly the same thing every time. On the other hand, robots also reduce costs for companies. Companies dont have to pay robots wages or inj
36、ury compensation (补偿) if theyre broken. If something in a robot does go wrong, it wont have to take time off work for a year, or even forever, as could happen to a real person if he breaks his back or burn himself while welding.The obvious downside to all of this is that it increases the unemploymen
37、t rate. The company will have to bring in some very talented individuals who know how to operate the robots. Unlike regular factory workers, these intelligence workers usually demand a higher pay.61. We can learn from the first paragraph that _. A. all the workers are replaced by robots now B. robot
38、s do much of the work instead of workers now C. there were no workers in the car factory D. the authors uncle made robots in the factory62. According to the text robots _.

40、lve the problem of unemployment D. using robots in factories widely will have a long way to go65. What is the authors attitude towards using robots in factories? A. He is doubtful about it. B. He thinks it necessary. C. He is strongly against it. D. The text doesnt mention it.CConnie Lau hates smoki
41、ng. “It smells awful, and its so bad for you. It breaks my heart to see my friends smoking. I try to get them to give up smoking.” She says.So why does Connie walk into convenience stores and try to buy cigarettes? She is testing to see if stores will sell cigarettes to a kid who is younger than 18.
42、 “You have to be 18 to purchase cigarettes, and Im 16, so if they sell to me, theyre breaking the law,” Connie says. Connie isnt a vigilante (治安队员); She works with local police in her town of Castro Valley, California. Officers drive her to stores, and she goes in alone to try to buy cigarettes. If
43、the person behind the counter sells her a pack, an officer comes in and writes the business a ticket for breaking the law. Most stores obey the law and dont sell her cigarettes. The law requires that customers show ID if store employees ask them to. “When they ask your age, you cant lie,” Connie say
44、s. “Most stores dont sell to me. In a year, weve visited almost 150 stores and had only 15 sales.” Working undercover can be scary, even with police nearby. Connie said one cashier refused to sell her cigarettes and then got angry when he found out her age. He threatened to call the authorities. “To
45、 calm him down, the police went in to explain that I was undercover,” she says. Most teens wouldnt think of going undercover for the police. Whats Connies motivation (动机)? For starters, she cant stand smoking. But she also believes its important for young people like her to try to make a real impact
46、 in their communities. In her view, teens can do more than get good grades in school, do chores at home, and do well in out-of-class activities. Every time she stops the sale of cigarettes to children, shes helping to uphold the law. “A single teenager can make a big difference,” Connie says. “For t
47、he most part, when stores get caught, they learn their lesson and dont do it again.” 66. According to the law what age of person can the store be allowed to sell cigarettes to?A. Under 18. B. More than 18. C. 16. D. More than 16.67. Connie goes to convenience stores to _.A. discover whether stores c

51、ildren with reading and sight trouble is being held back because of a lack of awareness of their legal rights, say campaigners.They are calling for greater efforts to increase awareness of the rights of such children to have text books in design other than standard (标准) print. The campaign is being
52、supported by five times Olympic gold medalist, Sir Steve Redgrave, who has reading trouble.Pupils have the right to receive text in another way, and parents can take action under the Disability Discrimination Act (DDA) if they feel their children are being treated in a different way through a lack o

61、e bad news is that humans seem born to be lazy in order to save energy, according to Professor Christopher Hsee, a behavioural scientist at Chicago University.3 In a study 98 students were asked to complete two surveys. After they had completed the first they were made to wait 15 minutes to receive
62、the next one. They were given a choice of either handing in the first survey nearby or at a more distant location they had to walk to. Whichever choice they chose, they received a chocolate bar. Two-thirds (68 per cent) chose to take a shortcut. Those who had taken the walk reported feeling happier
63、than those who had stayed put. Prof Hsee concluded _ helped keep people happy.4 He said the findings, reported in the journal Psychological Science, had policy guidance.

64、 At the individual level, he advised: Get up and do something. Anything. Even if there really is no point to what you are doing, you will feel better for it.
