Visitors need to pay for the activities and food.B“Homestay is a form of study abroad program. It allows the visitor to rent(租用) a room from a local family to better understand the local lifestyle. It also helps to improve the visitor's language ability，”said a teacher during a school meeting last term. “Students who wish to learn more about foreign cultures or to get foreign experience should join this kind of holiday. I am sure you won't be disappointed (失望的)．”After this special meeting，I always thought about this kind of holiday. Last month，I had a chance at last to go on such a holiday with some of my schoolmates and we went to London，a place where I had wanted to go since years ago.As we were still young，we had a group leader who planned things for us and looked after us. After we got to London，we went to stay with different families. I was lucky that my host family (寄宿家庭) was a white couple who had a daughter about my age. They treated me as a daughter of their family during my stay there. They were interested in me and I learnt a lot of things from them，too.The holiday was filled with activities every day. After breakfast，a local teacher would come to take us in his car. Then we would have classes or go on a sightseeing trip to different places of interest like the Big Ben，the London Bridge，and the Buckingham Palace. We would go back to our own homes after the activities.The holiday was a valuable experience for me. I enjoyed every minute of it. Yet，time really flew fast. Three weeks later，we had to leave “home” for Hong Kong.34. In the “homestay” program，a visitor can ________.A. learn more about holidaysB. understand his culture betterC. improve the language abilityD. take part in foreign meetings35. The writer had wanted to visit London since ________.A. last monthB. years agoC. the special meetingD. her stay abroad36. The group leader should ________.A. make plans for the familyB. take care of the studentsC. stay with different familiesD. rent rooms to the students37. The writer's host family ________.A. was interested in her activitiesB. went sightseeing with herC. had two white daughtersD. was very kind to her38. From the passage，we know that the writer ________ in London.A. spent three weeks in her homeB. had classes in many interesting placesC. wished to stay a little longerD. helped the teacher take the students in a carCHolding doors open, picking up rubbish, thanking people … these acts of kindness seem very small. But students at Tibbetts Middle School know that it’s the small acts that make the world a better place.Eighth-graders from New Mexico, US, took part in the Random (随意) Acts of Kindness Week from Feb 10 to 14. During the week, they tried their best to do kind things for others, or for the environment.Celeste Murray, an English teacher at the school, started the ac tivity. “I believe the world is changed by little things,” she told the local newspaper.

In July, the public got to see the store for the first time atAlibaba’s Taobao Maker Festival in Hangzhou.The 200-square-meter store sells drinks, fast food and snacks. It can hold up to 50 shoppers at a time. To enter and shop, people only need a smartphone with a Taobao app and an Alipay account (支付宝).By scanning their Taobao QR code (二维码), shoppers are followed with cameras for facial recognition(面部识别). The store has also digitalized (数字化) all goods and their placement on the shelves. So when shoppers pick up goods, the system will be able to “watch” and “remember” their selection.When shoppers are ready to leave, they don’t wait in line to pay. Instead, they go through two checkout doors. Then the bills will be paid with a Taobao account connected to Alipay.According to Alibaba, the checkout machines can recognize goods even when shoppers put them in pockets or bags. So it is almost impossible to steal things from the store.Tao Caféis not the only cashless store in China. A 24-hour convenience store with no staff called BingoBox opened in Shanghai in June.
