Someofthestudentswerecaughtoncameraintears, aswasoneoftheteachers.At the end of this episode, most of the teens had difficulty in adapting to the Chinese methodologies. Some of them even described their Chinese teachers as “rude” and “unreasonable”. Their teachers were not prepared for the stark differences between Chinese and British students as well.

His attitude didnt soften as I grew into adulthood and went to college. I had to ride the bus whenever I came home. Though the bus stopped about two miles from home, Dad never met me, even in severe weather. If I spoke unhappily, hed say in his loudest father-voice, “Thats what your legs are for!” The walk didnt bother me as much as the fear of walking alone along the highway and country roads. I also felt less than valued that my father didnt seem concerned about my safety. But that feeling disappeared one spring evening.It had been a particularly difficult week at college after long hours in labs. I longed for home. When the bus reached the stop, I stepped off and dragged my suitcase to begin the long journey home.A row of hedge（树篱）edged the driveway that climbed the hill to our house. Once I had turned off the highway to start the last lap of my journey, I always had a sense of relief to see the hedge because it meant that I was almost home. On that particular evening, the hedge had just e into view when I saw something gray moving along the top of the hedge, moving toward the house. Upon closer observation, I realized it was the top of my fathers head. Then I knew, each time Id e home, he had stood behind the hedge, watching, until he knew I had arrived safely. I swallowed hard against the tears. He did care, after all.On later visits, that spot of gray became my watchtower. I could hardly wait until I was close enough to watch for its secret movement above the greenery. Upon reaching home, I would find my father sitting innocently in his chair. “So! My son, its you!” hed say, his face lengthening into pretended surprise. I replied, “Yes, Dad, its me. Im home.” 28.

(1) (2) (3) (4) (5) D. (1) (2) (3) (4) (5)DWhat killed King Tut? Historians and scientists have long believed that ancient Egypts most famous king was probably murdered. But a recent scientific study claims to have found a different solution to this more than 3300-year-old mystery.Tuts full name was Tutankhamen. He was just 9 years old when he became ruler of Egypt in 1348 B.C. His treasure-packed tomb was displayed to the world almost a century ago. Tuts tomb was filled with royal riches, including a solid-gold coffin, and a gold mask. It made him one of the best-known Egyptian kings of all time.But Tut did not have much time to enjoy his vast wealth. The time when he was in power was cut short at the age of 19. Many experts have thought that Tut was killed by one of his advisers, named Ay, who wanted to be the king himself. Thanks to a major modern science project, it seems that Ay is off the hook.Researchers set out to solve the mystery of King Tuts death by using the tools of science. They began to look into Tuts mummy (木乃伊) by conducting an autopsy (尸体解剖). Scientist Carsten Pusch conducted the tests on Tut for the new study. A scan of Tuts mummy showed that his leg was broken. He thinks a broken leg contributed to the young kings death. The DNA also indicates that the ruler had an illness that causes bones to go bad. More than 100 walking sticks were found in King Tuts tomb. This supports the autopsy findings. Many of the sticks were well-worn, showing regular use. But how could a person die from a simple broken leg? Pusch also found DNA evidence in Tuts remains that indicates he had malaria, a disease carried by mosquitoes (蚊子). Malaria severely weakens the immune system. Finally, the young ruler was just too weak to recover.32. According to the text, King Tut is famous because _.A. his death was a mystery in historyB. he was likely to be murdered by his adviserC. his tomb was found packed with treasuresD. he brought much wealth to his people when he was in power33. By saying “Ay is off the hook”, the author means _.A. Ay is free from the blameB. Ay escapes from prisonC. Ay should be punished D. Ay cant get away with it34. We can know from the text that _.A. King Tut died from a weak body and a careless playB. the malaria bined with the bone disease caused King Tuts deathC. a jealous adviser named Ay is likely the real killer in King Tuts deathD. King Tut fell to death because of his leg problem35. The writer of the passage mainly wants to tell us that _.A. King Tut was the greatest king in Egyptian historyB. historical mysteries should be solved by scienceC. King Tuts mummy murder mystery has been solved D. history never put the blame on a good man without solid evidence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。(特别提示：请将答案填在答题纸上) Choosing to Study OverseasEvery year, thousands of students choose to study in another country for a semester, the summer, or a year.
