It seems as if I came here a month ago，but in reality I have to go home soon. When I came here，I missed my family and friends back home and found it hard to overcome loneliness，but on the other hand，I was interested in the new environment and had a lot of fun.I had visited Japan three times before coming to study at this university，but when I started living in Japan，many days were filled with a mixture of anxiety and excitement. I sometimes made silly mistakes，but I thought this was the best way to learn about Japanese culture. I was not the only one that was not accustomed to the different customs of Japanese people.My plan before coming to Japan was to make friends with some Japanese students in universities. However，I found my best friends were those who came from other countries. I didnt know much about other countries but I came to be more interested in them through making friends from different places，which made me aware of many different and sometimes hard-to-understand customs. Furthermore，I was surprised to see myself thinking more about my own culture and realized I should come to know it better.I am really happy that I came to Nara. During my stay，I felt the closer connection between humans and nature here than in Europe.4What can we infer from the third paragraph?AThe author felt puzzled all the time.BThe author is adjusted to the life.CMany foreigners live in the city of Nara.DMany students like the author felt anxious.5What does the underlined word “them” in Paragraph 4 refer to?ADifferent countries.BDifferent cultures.CMany different places.DForeign students.6What do we know about the Japanese according to the text?AThey value their lives much more.BThey are difficult to get along with.CThey are mindful of protecting the environment.DMany Europeans love to make friends with them.7What is the authors purpose in writing the text?ATo look back on his study.BTo call on readers to visit Nara.CTo show the beauty of Japanese culture.DTo share his experience of studying abroad. CCompanion planting is the idea that some kinds of plants can help each other grow. Plants that are compatible（兼容的，能共处的） together generally have similar needs in terms of nutrients，soil and moisture levels.Advice about which plants are compatible is sometimes based more on tradition than proof. But experts say there is evidence to support certain combinations. These can improve harvests，reduce disease and help with pest control by attracting helpful insects.For example，some kinds of soil bacteria take nitrogen from the air and make it into a form that plants can use. The plants hold the nitrogen in their roots. Legumes(豆科植物)are especially good at this nitrogen(氮)fixing. Then any crops that share the same space with the legumes can get the nitrogen when the roots are broken down.Beans and potatoes can also share territory well because their roots reach different levels in the soil. Deep-rooted vegetables get nutrients and moisture from lower down in the soil，so they do not complete with plants with shallower roots.But some plants placed together may harm each others development. For example，tomatoes do not like wet soil but watercress does，so you would probably want to keep them separated.Some kinds of produce should be kept apart even after being harvested. This is because of ethylene gas(乙烯气体)Ethylene is a plant hormone(激素)that can cause some foods to ripen too quickly. Apples release ethylene gas. Apricots，melons and tomatoes also release a lot of ethylene. Some vegetables are easily affected by ethylene，including asparagus，broccoli，cabbage and cucumbers.This risk of ripening too soon is why markets often separate high ethylene-producing foods from those that are sensitive to the gas. But if you put an apple in a bag with a green banana，the ethylene from the apple will make the banana ready to eat sooner.What about peaches，plums and nectarines? These kinds of fruit do not need any help from an applethey release enough ethylene to ripen themselves. But that does not mean there is no way to get the job done faster.Growers suggest placing the fruit in a fruit bowl or in a paper bag with the top folded over. Keep the fruit at room temperature，out of direct sunlight. Once the fruit is soft enough，either use it or put it in the refrigerator to keep it from getting too ripe.8Companion planting refers to the idea that Asome crops can grow together to benefit each otherBsome crops have the similar needs of nutrients，soil and water levelCsome plants can damage each other if grown togetherDa good farming method to prevent natural disasters9According to the text， cannot grow together.Abeans and potatoes Btomatoes and watercressClegumes and corns Drice and sugarcane10What is the function of ethylene?ATo improve the quality of fruits. BTo produce a poisonous gas.CTo keep vegetables fresh. DTo make fruits ripe earlier.11The text is most likely to be taken from Aa newspaper of medicine Ba magazine of biologyCa journal of agriculture Da travel reportDA new study of 8，000 young people in the Journal of Health and Social Behavior shows that although love can make adults live healthily and happily，it is a bad thing for young people. Puppy love (早恋) may bring stress for young people and can lead to depression. The study shows that girls become more depressed than boys，and younger girls are the worst of all.The possible reason for the connection between love and higher risk of depression for girls is “loss of self”According to the study，even though boys would say “lose themselves in a romantic relationship”，this “loss of self” is much more likely to lead to depression when it happens to girls. Young girls who have romantic relationships usually like hiding their feelings and opinions. They wont tell that to their parents.Dr Marianm Kaufman，an expert on young people problems，says 15% to 20% young people will have depression during their growing. Trying romance often causes the depression. She advises kids not to jump into romance too early. During growing up，it is important for young people to build strong friendships and a strong sense of self. She also suggests the parents should encourage their kids to keep close to their friends，attend more interesting school activities and spend enough time with family.Parents should watch for signs of depressioneating or mood changesand if they see signs from their daughters or sons，they need to give help. The good news is that the connection between romance and depression seems to become weak with age. Love will always make us feel young，but only maturity gives us a chance to avoid its bad side effects.12Whats the main idea of the passage?ARomance is a two-edged sword for adults.BParents should forbid their childrens love.CRomance is good for young people.DPuppy love may bring young people depression.13Which of the following is more likely to have depression?ACareless parents whose children are deep in love.BYoung people who have a strong sense of selfishness.CYoung girls who always hide their feelings and opinions.DYoung boys whose parents watch for their behavior.14What can be inferred from the passage?AThe older a woman is，the less likely she seems to lose herself in romance.BLacking love can lead young people to grow up more quickly.CEarly love makes young people keep close to their friends and parents.DParents should help their children to be aware of the signs of depression.15Whats the authors attitude towards puppy love?AConfused. BDisapproving. CNeutral. DScared.第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Nowadays，there is a trend that more and more people spend their holidays in foreign countries. 16 So read our travel tips that are simple and practical，and you can always enjoy your travels.On a business card，write down the emergency contacts information and place it in your wallet. 17 Give your emergency contact a copy of your travel plan，a passport data page，and the visa information.
