Every year, many foreign students go to America to study English. Some of them will live in an American family, but others will make a different decision. They’ll live with friends who come from their own country. I believe that if a foreign student thinks carefully about the two ways, he’ll decide to live with an American family. Even though there are one or two disadvantages (不利之处) to the first way, there are far more advantages.
In making his decision about how to live in the USA, the foreign student is careful to think about one or two disadvantages to live with an American family. First of all, he must know that he’s going to feel homesick (想家的) at first. Living in an American family may make this feeling become stronger. Also, the American family may do too much to take care of him. They may ask him where he’s going, when he leaves home, and when he’ll return.
If a foreign student lives in an American home, he’ll know the country and its people much better. For example, he’ll see how the parents teach their children. He’ll feel better because the American family will help him get used to a new life. In an American family, he can learn English fast. Family members can help him with his homework. When he speaks English, they can help him correct the mistakes he has made. In this way, he can learn English more easily.

25、 Once, there was a big apple tree. A little boy loved to climb to the tree top, ate the apples and played around it. With time on, the little boy grew up. He no longer played around it every day. One day, the boy came back, sad. “Come and play with me,” the tree said. “I am no longer a kid.” The boy replied, “ I need money to buy toys.” “I don’t have money...,but you can pick all my apples and sell them.” The boy was so excited. He picked all apples and left happily. The boy never came back after that.
One day, the boy returned. “Come and play with me,” the tree said happily. “I have no time to play. We need a house for my family.” “You can cut off my branches .” So the boy cut all the branches off the tree and left happily. But he never came back since then.
Again, the boy returned and said. “ I want to make a navigation across the sea. Can you give me a boat?” “Use my trunk(主干) to build your boat.” So the boy cut the trunk to make a boat. He went sailing and never showed up for a long time. Finally, the boy returned after he left for so many years. “Sorry, my boy. But I don’t have anything for you anymore. the only thing left is my dying roots.” the tree said with tears.
“I don’t need much now, just a place to rest. I am tired after all these years.” The boy replied.
“Good! Old tree roots is the best place to rest. Come and rest with me.” The boy sat down and the tree was glad and smiled with tears.

The tree is our parent.When we were young, we loved to play with them.When we grow up, we leave them, and only come to them when we need something or when we are in trouble.

26、Have you ever wanted to try on clothes without going to the trouble of getting undressed? If you have, here’s the device for you: the virtual(虚拟的) fitting room.
The technology, designed by Russian company AR Door, was first tried out in May. When a customer walks into a “fitting” room, they’ll stand in front of a big screen that looks like a mirror. A camera in the mirror, using Microsoft Kinect, monitors a customer’s movement and projects a 3-D image of the clothes onto you while you stand before a screen.
The room also uses augmented reality technology. “Augmented reality allows the customers to select an item of clothing without having to try it on physically,” the company told the Daily Mail. A customer can spin around to see all angles(角度) of the clothes, and can control the program by pushing virtual buttons.
AR Door is not the only company to be developing technology to help people with the way they look. Japanese company Shiseido recently presented its Magic Mirror, a virtual make-up mirror that allows people to get a full makeover in seconds.
However, the technology is not perfect. The clothes still seem to hang on the surface of the body, rather than look like the customer is actually wearing them. And people shopping for clothes are probably still better off actually trying them on.
In the end, you won’t know how something really looks and feels.
【1】The virtual fitting room is technology that_____________.
A. allows people to watch a movie while trying on clothes
B. can help people buy clothes on the Internet
C. allows people to walk freely in the fitting room
D. can help people select clothes without having to try them on
【2】Which of the following is NOT true?
A. The virtual fitting room was invented in Russia.
B. The virtual fitting room and the virtual make-up mirror both use the augmented reality technology to help people with the way they look.
C. The customer can control the program by pushing virtual buttons.
D. The customer looks like he/she is actually wearing the clothes while using this technology.
【3】In the virtual fitting room, what is on the screen?
A. A computer B. A camera
C. A fitting room D. A shop assistant
【4】From the last paragraph, we can learn that____________.
A. few people shop for clothes in clothing stores
B. the magic mirror is now widely used
C. people still need to try on clothes before buying them
D. the virtual fitting room is perfect
27、 When I was young, I hated my mother because she worked a lot and didn’t spend much time with me. Then one Friday morning I took part in a three-day self-help program for teenagers. Whether you believe it or not, that weekend changed my life. About 100 other teenagers were there. During the first two days I met a lot of great people. I was glad that I made so many friends there.
On Sunday, the leader did an interesting exercise called “Chocolate or Toys”. He asked a girl which she liked better, chocolate or toys. She chose chocolate. Then he asked her to choose again between chocolate and chocolate. Of course, she didn’t have a choice. This exercise told us that sometimes we don’t have a choice in life, and that sometimes we have to accept something rather than complaining(抱怨).
A girl stood up and started talking about how her mom was a drug addict (吸毒成瘾者) and how much she hated her mother. “I want a new mom,” she cried.“Unluckily, you can’t have one,” the leader said.“You have to accept the mother that you have.”This hit me hard.
