EuropeBStudying abroad can be a difficult experience, so you had better remember the following things. You can not completely(完全)enter another country if not leaving your home behind.

It is natural for anyone to make mistakes when learning a new language. This is how we learn. Be 10 times more polite than usual.

After all, you probably sing when you are happy Some scientists believe that birds do sing some of the time just because they are happy. However, they sing most of the time for a very different reason. Their singing is actually a warning to other birds to stay out of their territory. Do you know what a“territory”is. A territory is an area that an animal, usually the male (雄性的) animal, thinks as its own. Only he and his family are welcome there. No other families of the same animals are welcome. Your yard and house are your territory where only your family and friends are welcome. If a stranger should enter your territory and frighten you, you might shout. Probably this would be enough to frighten him away. If so, you have actually scared (吓走) the stranger away without having to fight him. A bird does the same thing. But he expects an outsider almost any time, especially at nesting season. So he is screaming all the time, whether he can see an outsider or not. This screaming is what we call a birds song, and it is usually enough to keep an outsider away. Birds sing loudest in spring when they are trying to attract (吸引) a mate and warn others not to enter the territory of theirs. You can see that birds have a language of their own. Most of it has to do with attracting mates and setting up territories.58. Some scientists believe that most of the time birds singing is actually . A. an expression of happiness B. a way of warningC. an expression of anger D. a way of greeting59. What does the underlined word“territory”mean? A. An area which a bird considers to be its own. B. An area for which birds fight against each other. C. A place where a bird may shout at the top of its voice. D. A place where families of other species (物种) are not welcome.60. Why do birds keep on singing at nesting season? A. Because they want to invite more friends. B. Because they want to find outsiders around. C. Because they want to express their happiness. D. Because their singing helps frighten outsiders away.61. How does the writer explain birds singing? A. By telling a birds story. B. By describing birds daily life. C. By reporting experiment(实验) results. D. By comparing(比较) birds with human beings.DStill in shock! I moved around the house purposelessly trying to decide what to put into the suitcases (行李箱). Earlier that evening, Id received a call telling me that my brother was killed in a car crash. “Come as soon as you can.” cried my mother.I wanted to hurry to her at once. But my husband, Larry, and I were packing to move from New York to Seattle. Our house was in total mess. Supper dishes sat on the kitchen table. Toys lay everywhere. I purposelessly picked things up and put them down. Mothers crying went through my head again and again.Larry called some friends to tell them what had happened. Someone asked to speak to me. “If theres anything I can do, let me know.” But I didnt know what to ask for.Suddenly, the doorbell rang. It was Emerson. He and his wife Donna lived in the block nearby.“Ive come to clean your shoes,” he said.I asked him to repeat.“Donna had to stay with the baby,” he said, “but we want to help you. I remember when my father died, it took me hours to clean our shoes for the funeral (葬礼). Give me all your shoes.”I gathered all our dirty shoes to the kitchen. Emerson got to work right away. Watching him devoting himself to one task helped me pull my own thoughts into order. I told myself to wash clothes first. Then, Larry and I bathed the children and put them to bed. One job after another.When we returned to clear the dishes, Emerson had left. All our shoes stood in a line against the wall, clean, shining. I couldnt help crying. Early next morning, we left for the airport with all the jobs done.Now whenever I hear of a friend whos lost a loved one, I no longer call with the polite offer, “If theres anything I can do ” Instead I try to think of one specific task that suits that mans need, like taking the dog to the boarding kennel, or house-sitting during the funeral. If the person asks, “How did you know I needed that one?” I reply, “Because a man once cleaned my shoes.”62.
