16.Icelanders have a beautiful tradition of giving books to each other on Christmas Eve and then spending the night reading.This custom is so deeply rooted in the culture that it is the reason for Christmas Book Flood,when the majority of books in Iceland are sold between September and December in preparation for Christmas giving.
"Books get attention here."Says Baldur Bjarnason,a researcher who has written about the Icelandic book industry.
The small Nordic island,with a population of only 329,000 people,is extraordinarily literary(文学的).They love to read and write.According to a BBC article,"The country has more writers,more books published and more books read,per head,than anywhere else in the world…One in 10 Icelanders will publish a book."
It seems there is more value placed on physical,paper books than in North America,where e-books have grown in popularity.One bookstore manager said,"The book in Iceland is such an enormous gift-you give a physical book.You don't give e-books here."The book industry is driven by the majority of people buying several books each year,rather than the North American pattern of a few people buying lots of books.
It sounds like a wonderful tradition,perfect for a winter evening.It is something that I would love to incorporate (吸收) into my own family's celebration of Christmas.

B.People in North America never buy physical books.
C.A few people buy a large number of books in North America.
D.In Iceland,everyone buys a large number of books each year.
3.I was lucky enough to have a chance to study in the United States as an international student from the Ukraine when I was fourteen years old.I went to a wonderful school,West Catholic High School,for my freshman year.
I remember my first day at that school as if it were yesterday.I was very nervous,and I could feel my heartbeat on the tips of my toes.My main fear was that I would not be able to express myself due to the language barrier.I was trying to have as little communication as I possibly could.And I almost succeeded,until we had to introduce ourselves in front of the class.
And the moment the word"international"flew out of my mouth,i was surrounded by thirty people who were asking questions one after anther.I remember some of the questions were"Where is the Ukraine?Is it a kingdom?""Do you have McDonald's?Does it taste the same?"and"Say something in your language."It turned out to be the opposite of less communication,but it was so much fun.
During the first three months,I certainly experienced a bit of cultural shock.I think Americans are the nicest people I have ever met in my entire life.They always smile and say,"Hi,how are you?"
One day,I noticed the students looking at me suspiciously.Finally,my classmate came up to my locker and whispered,"Is that true that you are a princess(公主)and that you came to study here so that nobody would recognize you?"At one point,I even had an image of myself wearing a gown and waving at the crowd.What?People do have a wild imagination!
During my study abroad experience,I saw a totally new world,experienced great culture,met a lot of incredible(不可思议的)people and improved my language.This trip inspired me to learn foreign languages.That is one of the reasons why I speak five different languages today.

4.On the first day of school,the author was afraid thatB.
A.she would be too shy to talk with others.
B.she could not communicate with others well.
C.she would not be able to do well in her studies

A.made fun of her
B.prepared a pecial gift for her
C.were eager to make friends with her
D.showed interest in her country's culture.

A.The author decided to settle in the USA.

C.The author always imagined herself as a princess.
D.The author got lots of benefits through studying abroad.
9.Rocky had always been picked on by some of his schoolmates.Nothing (41)B him more.But no matter how much he told them not to do so or even shouted at them,they wouldn't (42)C.One of his friends wanted to help him and told him a(n) (43)D about Sparky.
Sparky was a fighting bull.One day,Sparky stood next to his owner's house,(44)D the farmer's TV,and it was showing a bullfight.Sparky (45)C that this was what lay (46)A him,so he spent the rest of his life preparing for the day of his fight.
Soon,that day arrived.When Sparky (47)C the bullring(斗牛场),he was suddenly pushed in the back.It was very (48)A,and Sparky felt like his blood was boiling.But he knew (49)B what he needed to do,and he remained still.Soon,the bullfighter(50)B,trying to provoke(挑衅) Sparky.Sparky felt like (51)A his horns(角) deep into this stupid guy,but he controlled his(52)B,kept still and waited.
After some time,the crowd started to whistle.It got so bad that the bullfight organizers decided to(53)C the bull.This had been the most boring bull that anyone could remember.
So Sparky was (54)D to his field and allowed to live out his life in peace.Never again did they put him in a bullring,(55)B everyone knew that he would provide no amusement.
His friend told Rocky:"Those people(56)D making fun of you because they see how angry they make you.But (57)C you did what Sparky did,not reacting to anything,they'd get bored and look for someone else to (58)A,someone who could provide more amusement."
Rocky gradually tried to put this(59)D into practice.At first,it wasn't easy,but as Rocky(60)A to his plan,those people got bored with him.After a few days they found more interesting things to do than make fun of Rocky.
