You’ve just come home, after living abroad for a few years. Since you’ve been away, has this country changed for the better or for the worse?

If you’ve just arrived back in the UK after a fortnight’s holiday, small changes have probably surprised you—anything from a local greengrocer suddenly being replaced by a mobile-phone shop to someone in your street moving house.

So how have things changed to people coming back to Britain after seven, ten or even 15 years living abroad? What changes in society can they see that the rest of us have hardly noticed—or now take for granted? To find out, we asked some people who recently returned.

Debi: When we left, Cheltenham, my home town, was a town of white, middle-class families—all very conservative (保守的).The town is now home to many eastern Europeans and lots of Australians, who come here mainly to work in hotels and tourism. There are even several shops only for foreigners.

Having been an immigrant (移民) myself, I admire people who go overseas to find a job. Maybe if I lived in an inner city where unemployment was high, I’d think differently, but I believe foreign settlers have improved this country because they’re more open-minded and often work harder than the natives.

Christine: As we flew home over Britain, both of us remarked how green everything looked. But the differences between the place we’d left behind and the one we returned to were brought sharply into focus as soon as we landed.

To see policemen with guns in the airport for the first time was frightening — in Cyprus, they’re very relaxed — and I got pulled over by customs officers just for taking a woolen sweater with some metal-made buttons out of my case in the arrivals hall. Everyone seemed to be on guard. Even the airport car-hire firm wanted a credit card rather than cash because they said their vehicles had been used by bank robbers. But anyway, this is still a green, beautiful country. I just wish more people would appreciate what they’ve got.

1.After a short overseas holiday, people tend to ______ .　　　　　　

A. expect small changes                B. notice small changes

C. welcome small changes            D. exaggerate (夸大) small changes

2.How does Debi look at the foreign settlers?

A. Cautiously.        B. Skeptically.        C. Positively.            D. Critically.

3.When arriving at the airport in Britain, Christine was shocked by ______ .　　　　　　　

A. the tight security                    B. the messy arrivals hall

C. the relaxed policemen                D. the bank robbers

4.Which might be the best title for the passage?

A. Life in Britain.                    B. Britain in Memory.

C. Britain in Future.                    D. Back in Britain.

Since many of you are planning to study at a college or university in this country, you may be curious to know what you usually do in a typical week, how you can get along with your fellow students, and so on. These are the questions I want to discuss with you today.

First, let's talk about what your weekly schedule will look like. No matter what your major may be, you can expect to spend between four and six hours a week for each class attending lectures. Lectures are usually in very large rooms because some courses such as introduction to sociology or economics often have as many as two or three hundred students, especially at large universities. In lectures, it's very important for you to take notes on what the professor says because the information a lecture is often different from the information in your textbooks. Also, you can expect to have exam questions based on the lectures. So it isn't enough to just read your textbooks; you have to attend lectures as well. In a typical week you will also have a couple of hours of discussion for every class you take. The discussion section is a small group meeting usually with fewer than thirty students where you can ask questions about the lectures, the reading, and the homework. In large universities, graduate students, called teaching assistants, usually direct discussion sections.

If your major is chemistry, or physics, or another science, you'll also have to spend several hours a week in the lab, or laboratory, doing experiments. This means that science majors spend more time in the classroom than non science majors do. On the other hand, people who major in subjects like literature or history usually have to read and write more than science majors do.

1.The main purpose of this text is ______.

A. to persuade the students to attend lectures

B. to help the students to learn about university life

C. to encourage the students to take part in discussions

D. to advise the students to choose proper majors

2. We can learn from the passage that university professors ______.

A. spend about 5 hours on lectures each week

B. must join the students in the discussion sections

C. prefer to use textbooks in their lectures

D. require the students to read beyond the textbooks

3.A discussion section does NOT include ______.

A. discussing the problems related to the students' homework

B. talking over what the students have read about the courses

C. working under the guidance of university professors

D. raising questions about what a professor has said in a lecture

4.According to the author, science majors ______.

A. have to work harder than non science majors

B. spend less time on their studies than non science majors

C. consider experiments more important than discussions

D. read and write less than non science majors

After40  , I finally told him I wanted to be41 . He just sat there , speechless and didn’t even know________    __42__to say to make me stay . Finally , he spoke ,“What can I do to change your 43 ?”

“I’ll stay if you have a good answer44 this question,” I replied coldly。“If I asked for a 45

His face grew troubled.“Can I give you the answer tomorrow morning ?” With that , my heart47 . He couldn’t even give me an answer48 away.
