C

That cold January night, I was growing sick of my life in San Francisco. There I was, walking home at one in the morning after a tiring practice at the theater. With opening night only a week away, I was still learning my lines. I was having trouble dealing with my part-time job at the bank and my acting at night at the same time. As I walked, I thought seriously about giving up both acting and San Francisco. City life had become too much for me.

As I walked down empty streets under tall buildings, I felt very small and cold. I began running, both to keep warm and to keep away any possible robbers(抢劫犯). Very few people were still out except a few sad-looking homeless people under blankets.

About a block from my apartment, I heard a sound behind me. I turned quickly, half expecting to see someone with a knife or a gun. The street was empty. All I saw was a shining streetlight. Still, the noise had made me nervous, so I started to run faster. Not until I reached my apartment building and unlocked the door did I realize what the noise had been. It had been my wallet falling to the sidewalk.

Suddenly I wasn’t cold or tired anymore. I ran out of the door and back to where I’d heard the noise. Although I searched the sidewalk anxiously for fifteen minutes, my wallet was nowhere to be found.

Just as I was about to give up the search, I heard the garbage truck(垃圾车)pull up to the sidewalk next to me. When a voice called from the inside, “Alisa Camacho?” I thought I was dreaming. How could this man know my name? The door opened, and out jumped a small red-haired man with an amused look in his eyes. “Is this what you’re looking for?” he asked, holding up a small square shape.

It was nearly 3 a. m. by the time I got into bed. I wouldn’t get much sleep that night, but I had got my wallet back. I also had got back some enjoyment of city life. I realized that the city couldn’t be a bad place as long as people were willing to help each other.

Growing up across the street from each other in Twin Falls, Idaho, Lisa Fry and Paula Turner never doubted their friendship would last forever. But after Fry married, moved to New York City and had a baby, her letters to Turner suddenly went unanswered. “Do you think I’ve somehow offended(冒犯)her?” Fry asked her husband.

Turner, meanwhile, had convinced(使信服)herself she was no longer important to Fry.  “She’s got a family now,” she told herself. “We’re just too different to be close like before. ”

Finally, Fry picked up the courage to call her old friend. At first, the conversation was awkward, yet soon they both accepted that they missed each other. A month later, they got together and quickly fell into their old habit of laughing and sharing confidences.

“Thank goodness I finally took action,” Fry says. “We both realized we were as important to each other as ever. ”

There are good reasons to treasure our friendships. Some years ago a public-opinion research firm, Roper Starch Worldwide, asked 2007 people to identify one or two things that said the most about themselves. Friends far outranked homes, jobs, clothes and cars.

“A well-established friendship carries a long history of experience and interaction that defines who we are and keeps us connected,” says Donald Pannen, executive officer of the Western Psychological Association. “It is a heritage we should protect. ”

Ironically(具有讽刺意味)says Brant R. Burleson, professor of communication at Purdue University in West Lafayette, Ind. “the better friends you are, the more likely you’ll face conflicts. ” And the outcome can be exactly what you don’t want--- an end to the friendship.

The good news is that most troubled friendships can be mended.

A. a broken friendship B. treasuring friendship

C. what is good friendship                         D. how to make friendship last long

A. embarrassing        B. exciting                C. convenient            D. relaxed

A. Lisa Fry and Paula Turner believed their friendship wouldn’t last forever.

B. Turner didn’t reply to Fry’s letters because she was too busy.

C. People all think friends are far more important than homes, jobs, clothes and cars.

D. Lisa Fry and Paula Turner misunderstood each other at first.

Many people wonder why the United States has been a hotspot for Chinese students for years, despite its extremely strict visa policy. On the other hand, China’s rise as an economic powerhouse is resulting in a rapid expansion of its higher education system, making it the faster-growing destination for American foreign exchange students.

Recently, according to a study by the Institute of International Education, a research organization based in New York, the number of American students seeking higher education in China has never been greater, increasing by 90 percent from 2002 to 2004. Alan Goodman, president of the institute, believes that the phenomenon lies in the pace of change in China, which is spending billions of dollars to expend and transform its higher educational facilities into world-class  institutions.

“China is a job market,” said Professor Chou, professor of East Asian Studies at Princeton University. “Twenty years ago, only those interested in Chinese literature would study Chinese language. Now all professors have opened up.”

China now ranks 9th as a host destination for American students, advancing from the No.12 spot it held a year earlier. The study revealed that Britain continues to be the leading destination, attracting 16.8 percent of all American students who study abroad. On the other hand, in the 2004-2005 academic year, China sent more than 62,000 students to the United States, nearly 60 percent more than a decade earlier. According to the study, the Chinese now make up 11 percent of foreign students in the United States, the second-largest group behind students from India.

36. From the first paragraph, we know that for many years Chinese students want to go to the US but _____.

A. Chinese government refuses to give a visa

B. it is extremely difficult to get a visa

C. it results in a rapid expansion

D. China becomes a fast-growing country

37. According to the text, “the phenomenon” in the second paragraph refers to _____.

A. more American students’ seeking higher education in China

B. the pace of change in China during the past few years

C. founding a research organization based in New York

D. expending and transforming its higher educational facilities

38. What is the main idea of this text?

A. American Students are looking for destination.

B. American students are interested in Chinese culture.

C. Britain continues to be the leading destination.

D. China grows as study hotspot for U.S. students.
