I miss you very much. Now I am so excited that I can't wait to share with you an unforgettable experience. I gave my first lesson today, which left me a deep impression. Seeing a young teacher enter the classroom, my students began to make more noise. I stood on the platform, feeling embarrassed and not knowing what to do. Then I realized something must be done. I asked the kids whether they liked English songs. After taking a deep breath, I sang a song I had practised many times. To my surprise, all the kids were concentrating on my class later on. How delighted I am now! Actually, whatever happens, we must stay calm first and then find a wise solution. Looking forward to your reply. Yours， Li Hong 考 點 探 究 互動探究·能力備考 Ⅰ.詞匯短語過關 1．burst vi.

I lived with a Chilean family and had the responsibilities of any Chilean teenager. I had good days and bad days I didn't understand. Chuquicamata, my host community, is a mining camp. When I arrived there, I was scared. It was so different from what I was used to. There were lots of dogs on the streets, and there was no downtown, few smoothly paved streets, and little to do for entertainment. Rain was not seen very often; earthquakes and windstorms were frequent. I had studied Spanish for two and a half years and was always one of the best students in my class. But in my first week in Chile I was only able to communicate and needed one person to whom I could explain my shock. I couldn't speak the thoughts in my head and there were so many. Most exchange students experience this like me. Culture shock presents itself in everything from increased aggression towards the people to lack of appetite (食欲). I was required to overcome all the difficulties. As time passed, everything changed. I began to forget words in English and to dream in Spanish and love Chilean food. I got used to not depending on expensive things for fun. Fun in Chuquicamata was being with people. And I took math, physics, chemistry, biology, Spanish, art, and philosophy. But the sacrifices were nothing compared to the gain. I learned how to accept and to succeed in another culture. I now have a deeper understanding of both myself and others. 1. The author went to Chile last year with the purpose of ______. A. paying a visit to Chile as a tourist B. experiencing Chilean life as a teacher C. studying Chilean culture as a college student D. studying knowledge as an exchange student 答案及解析： 1. D。細節(jié)理解題。綜合第三段的“I had studied Spanish for two and a half years and was always one of the best students in my class.”和第四段的“Most exchange students experience this like me.”可判斷作者是一名交換生。 2. On arriving in Chile, why did the author feel frightened? A. Because he did not know how to get along with the local people. B. Because it was full of dangers like earthquakes and windstorms. C. Because its living conditions were worse than what he was used to. D. Because it was not convenient for him to shop there. 答案及解析： 2．C。細節(jié)理解題。文章第二段提到：“It was so different from what I was used to.” 再從街道環(huán)境、購物環(huán)境、娛樂設施、自然條件等方面描寫智利比較差的生活條件，由此可知作者是因為智利生活條件比他原先習慣的生活差許多而產(chǎn)生恐懼心理。 3. In the first week in Chile the author ______. A. was not used to eating Chilean food B. had some friends to have a chat with C. couldn't communicate with people D. couldn't express his thoughts in English 答案及解析： 3．A。細節(jié)理解題。來到智利的第一周，作者還在承受著culture shock 的痛苦，綜合第四段“Culture shock presents itself in everything from increased aggression towards the people to lack of appetite (食欲)．”和第五段的“As time passed, everything changed. I began to forget words in English and to dream in Spanish and love Chilean food.” 可判斷，不習慣智利的飲食是作者來到智利的第一周出現(xiàn)的。 4. What did the author most probably think of his life in Chile? A. Wonderful and worthwhile. B. Difficult but meaningful. C. Difficult and meaningless. D. Boring and disappointing. 答案及解析： 4．B。推理判斷題。綜合第四段的“I was required to overcome all the difficulties.”和最后一段“But the sacrifices were nothing compared to the gain.”可知，作者最有可能會認為自己在智利的生活不容易， 但盡管如此還是很有意義的，因為它讓作者學到了很多東西。 5. According to the passage, which of the following statements about Chile is true? A. Its official language is Spanish and English. B. It is a developing count
