Long ago there were two people--- a young father and an old neighbor. One day the young father was visiting the old neighbor. They were standing in the old man’s garden, talking about children. The young man said, “How strict should parents be with their children?” The old man pointed to a string（绳子）between a big strong tree and a thin young one．“Please untie（解开）that string，” he said．The young man untied it, and the young tree bent over to one side. “Now tie it again，please,” said the old man, “but first pull the string tight so that the young tree is straight again.” The young man did so．Then the old man said，“There，it is the same with children.

What does the word “home” mean to you? How do you say the word in French? In Spanish? In your language? Although people usually know what the word means, it often has no exact translation. It’s not surprising really, because the idea of home differs from country to country, and from person to person. A home is more than a roof and four walls. It’s the cooking, eating, talking, playing and family living that go on inside, which are important as well. And at home you usually feel safe and relaxed. But it’s not just that homes look different in different countries, they also contain different things and reveal（显示） different attitudes and needs. For example, in cold northern Europe, there’s a fire in the living room or kitchen and all the chairs face it. In the south, where the sun shines a lot and it’s more important to keep the heat out, there are small windows, cool stone floors and often no carpets. We asked some people about their homes. How often do people move house in your country? “In my country many people don’t stay in one place for a very long time. They often move every ten years or so.” Cheryl, Boston, USA What are typical features of homes in your country? “In Britain, even in town there’s always a garden and sometimes a cellar（地下室）. We have separate bedrooms and living rooms. But we don’t often have balconies (阳台). The weather isn’t warm enough!” — Pat, Exeter, England 1.Which one is true according to the passage? A. People in Britain seldom have balconies because it’s so hot outside. B. “Home” is a place where you feel safe and relaxed. C. Although homes look different in different countries, they have the same needs. D. Houses in northern Europe always have big windows and cool stone floors. 2.The word “home” has no exact translation because ______. A. people can’t find this word in the dictionary B. no one knows what it is C. it has different meanings in different countries D. people can’t understand each other very well 3.You can ______ at home according to the passage. A. eat, play, and teach students B. cook, talk, and play games C. swim, eat, and make friends D. do nothing 4.Why is it important to keep the heat out of the houses in southern Europe? A. Because they want to breathe fresh air outside. B. Because there’s a fire in the living room. C. Because they wear heavy clothing all day long. D. Because the sun there shines a lot.

This year some twenty-three hundred teenagers (young people aged from 13 to 19) from all over the world will spend about ten months in US homes. They will attend US schools, meet US teenagers, and form impressions of the real America. At the same time, about thirteen hundred American teenagers will go to other countries to learn new languages and gain a new understanding of the rest of the world． Here is a two-way student exchange in action. Fred, nineteen, spent last year in Germany with George’s family. In turn, George’s son Mike spent a year in Fred’s home in America． Fred, a lively young man, knew little German when he arrived, but after two months’ study, the language began to come to him. Schools were completely different from what he had expected—much harder. Students rose respectfully when the teacher entered the room. They took fourteen subjects instead of the six that are usual in the United States. There were almost no outside activities. Family life, too, was different. The father’s word was law, and all activities were around the family rather than the individual(个人). Fred found the food too simple at first. Also, he missed having a car. “Back home, you pick up some friends in a car and go out and have a good time. In Germany, you walk, but you soon learn to like it.” At the same time, In America, Mike, a friendly German boy, was also forming his idea．“I suppose I should criticize(批评) American schools,” he says. “It is far too easy by our level. But I have to say that I like it very much. In Germany we do nothing but study. Here we take part in many outside activities. I think that maybe your schools are better in training for citizens(公民). There ought to be some middle ground between the two. 1.The world exchange programme is mainly to ________. A．help teenagers in other countries know the real America B．send students in America to travel in Germany C．have teenagers learn new languages D．let students learn something about other countries 2.Fred and Mike agreed that ________. A．American food tastes better than German food． B．Americans and Germans were both friendly C．German schools were harder than American schools D．There were more cars on the streets in America 3.What is special in American schools is that ________. A．there is some middle ground between the two teaching buildings B．students go outside to enjoy themselves in a car C．students usually take fourteen subjects in all D．there are a lot of after-school activities 4.After experiencing the American school life, Mike thought _________. A．German schools trained students to be better citizens B．A better education should include something good from both America and Germany C．American schools were not as good as German schools D．The easy life in the American schools was more helpful to students

阅读下面短文，并按照题目要求用英语问答问题（请注意问题后词数要求）。 Too many people want others to be their friends, but they don’t give friendship back. That is why some friendships don’t last very long. To have a friend, you must learn to treat your friend the way you want your friend to treat you. Learning to be a good friend means learning three rules: be honest; be generous; be understanding. Honesty is where a good friendship starts. Friends must be able to trust one another. If you don’t tell the truth, people usually find out. If a friend finds out that you haven’t been honest, you may lose your friend’s trust. Good friends always rely on one another to speak and act honestly. Generosity(大度) means sharing and sharing makes a friendship grow. You don’t have to give your lunch money or your clothes, of course. Instead you have to learn how to share things you enjoy, like your hobbies and your interests. Naturally you will want to share your ideas and feelings. These can be very valuable to a friend. They tell your friend what is important to you. By sharing them you help your friend know you better. Sooner or later everyone needs understanding and help with a problem. Something may go wrong at school. Talking about the problem can make it easier to solve（解决). Turning to a friend can be a first step in solving the problem. So to be a friend you must listen and understand. You must try to put yourself in your friend’s place so you can understand the problem better. No two friendships are ever exactly alike. But all true friendships have three things in common. If you plan to keep your friendships, you must practise honesty, generosity and understanding. 1.What is the best title of the passage?(no more than 10 words) 2.What does a good friendship begin with?(no more than 8 words) 3.How can you help your friends know you better? (no more than 8 words) 4.What can be a first step in solving the problem?(no more than 4 words). 5.将文中画线部分翻译成汉语。
