Question

【题目】Hello, everyone. I'm here today to tell you something about my life as an exchange student in the United States last year.

America was a big culture shock for me at first. I stayed with a host family in a small town. My host parents were very kind. They organized a lot of activities for me in my free time so that I wouldn't miss home.

However, life in the US was difficult to get used to. My main problem was the language.

I failed to understand much in the first few weeks because everyone spoke so fast. Another one

was the food. My host family always had bread, potatoes and salad, but I missed dumplings, rice and delicious dishes a lot, especially barbecue(烧烤). It was very famous in Qiqihar.

It was an exciting year, and it was a valuable education for me. I understood more about

American culture. My American friends asked me many questions about life in China, and this

made me think about my own culture as well. Now I am back in China, I still remember the life in the US.

Judge the following sentences true ( T ) or false ( F ) according to the passage.

【1】The writer now is in America.

【2】The host parents were very friendly.

【3】The host family always had dumplings, rice and delicious dishes.

【4】American friends' questions about life in China made the writer think about his own culture.

【5】It was very easy for the writer to get used to the life in the US.

【解析】本文主要主要内容是关于去美国寄宿读书的情况，开始时，由于语言、文化和饮食等方面的原因作者不适应，但是作者发现这里的生活很美好。作者现在已经回国，但是还很想念美国留学的生活。

【1】句意：作者现在在美国。考查细节理解题。根据本文最后一句Now I am back in China, I still remember the life in the US.（现在我回到中国，我还记得在美国生活。）可知此句是错的，写F。

【2】句意：主人的父母非常友好。考查细节理解题。根据第二段中My host parents were very kind. They organized a lot of activities for me in my free time so that I wouldn't miss home.（我的寄宿父母非常和蔼。他们在我空闲的时候为我组织了许多活动，这样我就不会想家了。）可知此句是正确的，写T。

【3】句意：主人家里总是吃饺子、米饭和美味的菜肴。考查细节理解题。第三段第五句"My host family always had bread，potatoes and salad"我寄宿的地方，一般都吃面包，土豆和沙拉，由此推测此题错误。写F。

【4】句意：美国朋友的关于在中国生活的问题使作家想到了自己的文化。考查细节理解题。根据第四段第三句My American friends asked me many questions about life in China, and this

made me think about my own culture as well.（我的美国朋友问了我很多关于生活在中国的问题，这使我也想起了我自己的文化。）可知此句是正确的，写T。

【5】句意：对作家来说，适应美国的生活是很容易的。考查细节理解题。根据第三段第一句However, life in the US was difficult to get used to.（然而，美国的生活很难适应。）可知此句是错误的。写F。
