解答 36-40 ACBFG
36．A．考查上下文的语境理解能力．根据下面的studying overseas can be an experience for many people（海外学习可以成为很多人难忘的经历）可知是问为什么去国外学习说留学的优势，故A符合语境．
37．C．考查上下文语境理解能力．根据many companies today want employees who speak a second language，or have experiences living or working in another country描述（现在很多公司需要会说第二语言，或有在另外一国生活或者工作经验的雇员）可知你会以一种新的方式看世界，了解更多关于你自己的事情；故选C．
38．B．考查上下文语境理解能力．根据once you decided to study overseas，you have to make some choices（一旦你决定留学海外，你必须做出一些选择）以及下文描述，比如留学多久等，可知B符合语境．
39．F．考查上下文语境理解能力．根据getting ready to go以及下文描述，可知应在出国前办理好护照和签证，并且在你走之前，学习一些语言，并阅读一些当地常见的习俗；故选F．
40．G．考查上下文语境理解能力．根据once you are there一段，when you feel sad or homesick，try to talk to others，or write your feelings in the notebook当你感到悲伤或者想家时，试着和别人谈话，或者记下你的感受，可知你记得要适应新的地方、学校和文化需要时间；故选G．
