Many young people, when they finish school at the age of 18, take a gap year before they go to university.Parents often want their children to grow up a little and see what the real world is like when they finish school. Although they are worried about their safety, many think that the advantages of independence and experience are worth the worries. Children are encouraged to be brave, independent and to explore the world on their own or with friends.Young people also want to experience freedom and see what life is like on the other side. This other side could be the other side of the world or just the other side of life. For example, if they have a rich life, they may want to see how people in poor areas live.A gap year after school is also an important chance for young people to spend time thinking about what they want to do with their lives. A little bit of growing up and experience will help them make their important career decisions, especially when they are unsure about what they want to study.Another reason for going straight after school is to get a break from studying before they start the next few years of university. So anywhere you travel in the world, you will meet young European people exploring the world.So much of the world has been traveled and explored. The young people are now looking for more worthy experiences. Some of them work as volunteers to do something for the country theyare visiting. Many gap year volunteers are now spending a few months teaching English in Thailand, helping feed giant pandas in China or building a well(井) in a village in Africa.These young people’s wish to explore the world is an expression of the values of the societies that they are part of. Both discovering the world and making a positive difference in it are important parts of the Western mind.( )1. Which is NOT a reason for young people to take a gap year?A.

It was a bad fall. I landed on a piece of glass that cut my eye badly. From then on，my injured，sightless，cloudy gray eye lived on with me.Sometimes people asked me embarrassing(使人难堪的)questions. Whenever kids played games, I was the "monster". I was always imagining that everyone looked down on(瞧不起)me.Yet mum would say to me, "Hold your head up high and face the world." I began to depend on that saying.As a child，I thought mum meant, "Be carefu1，or you will fall down or bump into something because you are not looking." As a teenager, I usually looked down to hide my shame. But I found that when I held my head up high，people liked me.In high school I even became the class president, but on the inside h still felt like a monster. All I really wanted was to look like everyone else. When things got really bad, I would cry to my mum and she would look at me with loving eyes and say, "Hold your head up high and face the world. Let them see the beauty that is inside instead of your appearance(外貌). "My mum's love was the sunshine that made me bright. I had faced hard times, and learned not only to be confident(自信的)but also to have deep compassion(同情)for others."Hold your head up high" has been heard many times in my home. I say it to my children. The gift my mum gave me will live on.( )5 .Why did the writer imagine that everyone looked down on her?A. She felt bad about her appearance.B. She found it hard to act as a monster.C. Kids refused to play games with her.D. People always asked her embarrassing questions.( )6.Why did the writer's mum say "Hold your head up high" to her?A. To tell her to be careful.B. To help her hide the shame.C. To stop her from getting hurt.D. To make her more confident.( )7 .From the story, we can know that .A. the writer understood the saying very well as a childB. the writer felt like everyone else in high schoolC. the writer is living with a warm and brave heart nowD. the writer has deep compassion for others all her life( )8. The passage is mainly about .A. what the writer experienced when she was 15B. what the writer did to show thanks for mum's giftC. how the writer changed herself with mum's loveD. how the writer became confident with her great effortsCThe Vieira family moved to the United States in 1981. At that time, they decided to stop speaking Spanish at home and only communicate in English. This was because they were now living in an English-speaking country.Now the Vieira children are adults, and they sometimes travel to Spain to visit their family and friends. But they cannot communicate with them. Unfortunately this is common. When people move to new countries, they often leave their own customs and mother language behind. This is a mistake because there are many benefits to knowing more than one language.One advantage of speaking more than one language is that you can communicate directly with more people around the world. You do not have to depend on others to talk for you, so you’re more independent. People who know only one language must use others to help them communicate.Furthermore, speaking a second language also allows people to experience other cultures and customs more effectively. Local expressions, vocabulary, and even jokes can have a powerful effect on a person’s understanding of another culture. So, knowing more than one language increases your knowledge of other cultures.Finally, having more multi-language speakers improves relationships between countries. If people from different countries can communicate well, the world can become closer. Countries will then have more respect for each other and better unders tand each other’s problems.The benefits of knowing more than one language are clear. In fact, there are no disadvantages. It is very sad that many people don’t try to learn another language. It is even worse when people let themselves forget their mother language and become silenced.( )9. What is the passage mainly about?A. The benefits of learning other languages.B. The reasons why people come to America.C. The importance of learning English.D. How to learn another language.( )10.
