I went to a wonderful school, West Catholic High School, for my freshman year.I remember my first day at that school as if it was yesterday. I was very nervous. My main fear was that I would not be able to express myself due to language barrier.I was trying to have as little communication as I possibly could. And I almost srcceeded until we had to introduce ourselves in front of the class.And the moment the word "intrenational" flew out of my mouth, I was surrounded by thirty people who were asking questions one after another. It turned out to be the opposite of less communication, but it was so much fun.During the first three months, I definitely experienced a little bit of cultural shock. I think Americans are the nicest people I have ever met in my entire life. They always smile and say, "Hi, how are you?"One day, I noticed the students looking at me suspiciously. Finally, my classmate came up to my locker and whispered, " Is that true that you are a princess and that you came to study here so that nobody would recognize you?" At one point, I even had an image of myself wearing a gown and gracefully waving at the crowd.I think it was a priceless one-year experience! I saw a totally new world, experienced great culture, met a lot of incredible people and improved my language. This trip inspired me to learn foreign languages. That is one of the reasons I speak five different languages today.25.The author tried to avoid talking with others ________.A. because she was afraid of making mistakesB. because she was not good at communicationC. because she couldn’t use her language wellD. because she hesitated to introduce herself26.The underlined word "suspiciously" means ______.A. surprisinglyB. doubtfullyC. angrilyD. thankfully27.It can be inferred from the passage that ________ .A. the author didn’t want to make herself knownB. the author thought people had a vivid imaginationC. the author decided to settle in the USAD. the author thought the USA was a good place for learning languageC.The US plans to extend its endangered species protection to lions in Africa．US Fish and Wildlife Service(FWS)will classify lions in southern and eastern Africa as threatened．The move will place tighter restrictions on the import of lion“trophies”，such as paws or heads．While the US cannot regulate hunting in other countries，the move is significant because around half of a11 lion hunting in Africa is conducted by Americans．According to FWS data，more than 5，600 lions have been killed and imported by American hunters over the past decade．Under the new FWS rules，bringing lion parts to the US will be banned in most circumstances if the animal is from a country where lions are endangered．Hunters will have to show the trophies were“legally obtained”from countries that have “a scientifically sound management program that benefits the subspecies in the wild”·This regulation is expected to place a far greater burden of proof upon hunters who claim that the money from lion hunting has been used to help communities in Africa and the overall conservation of lions．The persistent downward trend in lion numbers，due to habitat loss and hunting by locals and foreign tourists，suggests there hasbeen little conservation benefit from organized hunts．An international study，published in September，found African lion numbers have decreased by half since 1993，with a further 50％decline expected over the next 20 years for populations in west，central and east Africa·“The lion is one of the planet’s most beloved species and an irreplaceable part of our shared global heritage，”said Dan Ashe，director of the FWS．“If we want to ensure that healthy lion populations continue to wander around the African savannas and forests of India，it’s up to all of us—not just the people of Africa and India —to take action．28.Why will lions be classified as endangered in southern and eastern Africa? A．No lion is protected in Africa．B．Lion trading has been banned．C．Its numbers have been decreasing．D．Both locals and tourists hunt lions．29.Where do most of the lion hunters come from?A．Southern Africa．B．America．C．Eastern Africa． D．India．30.What may be the result of the move ?A．The import of lion parts will be strictly limited．B．Lion-hunting will be illegal all over the world．C．Communities in Africa will benefit a lot．D．Lion parts will not be legally obtained．31.What does Dan Ashe really want to tell us in the last paragraph?A．Almost everybody loves lions．B．It’s everyone’s duty to protect lions．C．Lion populations will increase rapidly．D．Measures must be taken to keep lions fit．D.One evening last fall, while Marcos Ugarte did his homework and his father, Eduardo,a teacher, prepared lesson plans, they heard shouting outside. Eduardo, 47, and Marcos, 15, stepped onto the balcony(阳台) of their two-story home. Immediately, Marcos’ s eye was caught by a flame from one of their neighbors’ houses. "Dad, the house is on fire!" Marcos cried. Dressed only in shorts, the barefoot teen dashed towards the Mas’ home with his dad. Grandmother Yim Ma, mother Suzanne Ma, and son Nathan Ma were gathered on the front grassland shouting for help. When the Ugartes got there, they saw through the open front door that father Alex Ma was falling down the stairs, coughing, his face black with dirt."Is anyone else in the house?" Eduardo asked."My son!" Alex managed to say, pointing to the second floor.Eduardo started up the stairs, but thick, black smoke, swirling ash, and extreme heatforced him to his knees. He inched upstairs and down the hall where Alex said he would find Cody, eight, who had locked himself in a bedroom. "I’d never seen smoke like that," says Eduardo. "My glasses immediately turned black from the ash." As the fire spread across the hall, Eduardo banged on the bedroom door and tried to turn the handle. But Cody didn’t respond, and Eduardo made his way back downstairs. At the same time, Marcos saw Yim and Suzanne pulling an aluminum(铝) ladder out of the garage. "Cody was standing at the window, screaming for help," says Marcos. "I knew I had to do something." He grabbed the ladder, positioned it near the window, and climbed towards the boy. When Marcos reached the window, he pushed the screen into the room and persuaded Cody out. "It’s OK," Marcos told him. "I’ve got you." Holding Cody with one arm, Marcos moved down the ladder. Halfway down, he handed the boy to a neighbor.The day after the fire, Alex visited Marcos. "Thank you for saving my son," Alex said. "You are his hero forever."32.What’s the passage mainly about?A．How a family got saved from a fire.B．How a fire happened.C．How a teen became a hero.D．How a barefoot teen saved his neighbor.33.The Ugartes went onto their balcony to.A．have a restB．enjoy the coolC．see where the fire wasD．see what was the matter34.When the Ugartes got to the fire scene,.A．the Mas were all out to safetyB．father Alex Ma was saving his sonC．Cody was trapped on the second floorD．Cody was sleeping in bed35.Why did Marcos say something to Cody?A．To calm him.
