二、阅读理解

The English are often considered as unfriendly people who don't talk to strangers, but not London taxi drivers. I

once asked a cabbie to describe his life to me and he didn't stop talking until I arrived home half an hour later. He

told me many interesting stories and this is one of them: “Some very strange things happen late at night. The other

day I was taking a woman home from a party. She had a little dog with her. When we got to her house she found

that she'd lost her key. So, I waited in the cab with the dog while she climbed up the window.” “I waited … and

waited … After half an hour of ringing the bell I decided to find out what was going on. I tied the dog to a tree and

started to climb up the window. The next thing I knew was that the police came. They thought that I was trying to

rob the house! Luckily, the woman came downstairs, she'd gone to sleep and forgotten about me and the dog. I

was in such a hurry to get away that I forgot to ask her for the fare(车资，车费).”

This year 2,300 teenagers (young people aged from 13-19 ) from all over the world will spend about ten months

in U.S. homes. They will attend U.S. schools, meet U.S. teenagers, and form impressions of the real American

teenagers. American teenagers will go to other countries to learn new languages and have a new understanding of

the rest of the world.

Here is a two-way student exchange in action. Fred, nineteen, spent last year in Germany with George's family.

In return, George's son, Mike, spent a year in Fred's home in America.

Fred, a lively young man, knew little German when he arrived, but after two months’ study, the language began

to come to him. School was completely different from what he had expected — much harder. Students rose

respectfully when the teacher entered the room. They took fourteen subjects instead of the six that are usual in the

United States. There were almost no outside activities.

Family life, too, was different. The family's word was law, and all activities were around the family rather than

the individual (个人). Fred found the food too simple at first. Also, he missed having a car.

“Back home, you pick up some friends in a car and go out and have a good time. In Germany, you walk, but you

soon learn to like it.”

At the same time, in America, Mike, a friendly German boy, was also forming his idea. “I suppose I should

criticize (批评) American schools.” he says. “It is far too easy by our level. But I have to say that I like it very

much. In Germany we do nothing but study. Here we take part in many outside activities. I think that maybe your

schools are better in training for citizens (市民). There ought to be some middle ground between the two.”

5. The whole exchange program is mainly to _______________.

A. help teenagers in other countries know the real America B. send students in America to travel in Germany

C. let students learn something about other countries D. have teenagers learn new languages

6. What did Fred and Mike agree on?

A. American food tasted better than German food. B. German schools were harder than American schools.

C. Americans and Germans were both friendly. D. There were more cars on the streets in America.

7. What is special in American schools?

A. There is some middle ground between the two teaching buildings.

B. There are a lot of after-school activities.

C. Students usually take 14 subjects in all.

D. Students go outside to enjoy themselves in a car.

8. What did Mike think after experiencing the American school life?

A. A better education should include something good from both America and Germany.
