16．A student's life is never easy．（36）GA lot of preparations are needed so you can be sure to go back home with a diploma and a bright future waiting for you．The following are some basic things you need to do before even seizing that passport and boarding on the plane．
Knowing the country．
You shouldn't bother researching the country's hottest tourist spots or historical places．You won't go there as a tourist，but as a student．It'll be helpful to read the most important points in their history and to read up on their culture．（37）C You surely don't want to face legal problems，especially if you're away from home．
Studying their language．
Don't expect that you can graduate abroad without knowing even the basics of the language．Before leaving your home country，take online lessons to at least master some of their words and sentences．（38）D  Doing this will also prepare you in communicating with those who can't speak English．
（39）B
Check the conversion（兑换）of your money to their local currency，set up your bank account so you can use it there，get an insurance，and find an apartment．The Internet or your intended school will be very helpful in finding an apartment and helping you understand local currency．
Remember，you're not only carrying your own reputation but your country's reputation as well．If you act foolishly，people there might think that all of your country men are foolish as well．（40）E．

A．Packing your clothes．
B．Preparing for other needs．
C．Most importantly，read about their laws．
D．This will be useful in living and studying there．
E．That would surely be a very bad start foryour study abroad program．
F．Going with their trends will keep it from being too obvious that you're a foreigner．
G．And it is even more difficult if you will have to complete your study in a foreign land．
17．Mrs．Packletide intended to shoot a tiger．Not that the desire to kill had suddenly come to her，or that she felt she would leave India safer with one wild beast less．It was because Loona Bimberton had recently taken a plane to the forest and killed a tiger，and the newspapers showed photographs of Loona Bimberton with a tiger-skin on．In a world supposed to be moved by hunger and by love，Mrs．Packletide's movements were largely governed by dislike of Loona Bimberton．
     Circumstances proved favorable．Mrs．Packletide had offered a thousand rupees （印度卢比） for the opportunity of shooting a tiger without risk or effort，and it happened that an old tiger was frequently coming to a neighboring village at night．He was so old that he couldn't kill animals in the wild and just satisfied his appetite to the smaller household animals．The villagers were eager to earn the thousand rupees； children were posted night and day in the jungle to watch the tiger，and the cheap goats were left about to keep him from going elsewhere．The one great fear was that he should die of old age before the day of Mrs．Packletide's shoot．
    The great night arrived．A platform had been built in a tree，on which sat Mrs．Packletide and her paid companion，Miss Mebbin．A goat with a loud bleat （咩咩叫） was tied down at the correct distance．With an accurate gun，they waited for the coming of the tiger．
"I suppose we are in some danger？"said Miss Mebbin．
    She was not actually nervous about the wild beast，but she was unwilling to perform a bit more service than she had been paid for．
"It's a very old tiger．It couldn't spring up here even if it wanted to．"said Mrs．Packletide．
    Their conversation was cut short by the appearance of the old tiger．He saw the goat，and lay on the earth for a short rest before attacking．
      The gun fired very loudly，and the great yellow beast jumped to one side and then rolled over in the stillness of death．In a moment a crowd of excited villagers appeared on the scene，and their shouting carried the glad news to the village．
    It was Miss Mebbin who found that the goat was dying from a bullet-wound，while no wound could be found on the tiger．Evidently the wrong animal had been hit，and the tiger had died of heart-failure，caused by the sudden loud noise of the gun．Mrs．Packletide was annoyed at the discovery； but anyway，she owned a dead tiger，and the villagers，anxious for their thous and rupees，gladly accepted the fiction that she had shot the tiger．And Miss Mebbin was a paid companion．Therefore Mrs．Packletide faced the cameras with a light heart，and her pictures appeared on the newspapers of England and America．As for Loona Bimberton，she refused to look at a newspaper for weeks，and was in a depressed emotion for quite some time．
    Mrs．Packletide's tiger-skin was inspected and admired by the neighbors，and Mrs．Packletide went to the Costume Ball in the character of Diana （狩猎女神）．
"How amused everyone would be if they knew what really happened，"said Miss Mebbin a few days after the ball．
"What do you mean？"asked Mrs．Packletide quickly．
"How you shot the goat and frightened the tiger to death，"said Miss Mebbin，with her unpleasant laugh．
"No one would believe it，"said Mrs．Packletide，her face changing color rapidly．
"Loona Bimberton would，"said Miss Mebbin．
    Mrs．Packletide's face settled on greenish white．"You surely wouldn't give me away？"she asked．
"I've seen a weekend cottage near Dorking，"said Miss Mebbin，"six hundred and eighty．Quite a bargain，only I don't happen to have the money．"
    Miss Mebbin possessed the pretty weekend cottage．Mrs．Packletide lost interest in animal-hunting．
"The extra expenses are so heavy，"she said to inquiring friends．

18．"Angie，I know you like to sing，"her father，a worker，told Angela Brown，"but you must have something to fall back on （依靠）．"
Brown took her father's advice．She got a degree in secretarial science before enering Oakwood College，in Huntsville，Alabama．However，her aim was to become a singer at religious meetings．So after graduation she headed for Indiana University to study with the famus soprano （女高音歌手） Virginia Zeani．
Once，when Brown was troubled by self-doubt，Zeani said to her，"If you want to be the next Aretha Franklin，you need no more lessons，"Brown remembers her saying．"But if you want to be the best Verdian soprano this world has ever seen，you must work．"
Work she did．Three times she competed in the Metropolitan Opera National Council Auditions （试演）．Three times she failed to make the final round in New York．Then，in 1997at age 33，the age limit for sopranos to audition，she gave it one more try．She signed up at the last minute and didn't even practice，thinking，"All they could do was to tell me no，and that didn't hurt my feelings anymore．"She had the strength she needed to fall back on if she failed．
She won．But making it in New York was just the beginning．It took her three more years to become an understudy （替角） at the Met．But waiting in the wings was fine with her．Finally，her time came．When the featured singer fell ill，Brown earned the chance to sing the lead role in Aida．And The New York Times described her performance as a great success．Angela Brown，who had prepared for 20years，was an"overnight"successful singer at age 40．

15．Jolly Joe always arrived at my neighborhood at exactly half past noon．The clang（叮当声） of the bell on his red and black truck was then the sweetest sound in the world．Brightly colored stickers advertising his amazing kinds of treats could be found on all sides of his truck．The whole neighborhood would magically come to life．
Holding a nickel（五分镍币），I'd run to the back of the vehicle，where children were already gathering．Jolly Joe．would jump out of his truck，the sun shining on his chair．He was an older man，short and round，with a pleasant face and a welcoming smile．
I don't know how，but he knew us all，by name，as well as which treats we preferred：My favorite was the Buried treasure．By eating all the ice cream，you'd discover the treasure inside：a lion，a dog or even a funny clown一printed onto a plastic stick．．
When it was finally my turn，he'd put his arm deep inside one of the boxes，and pause（停顿）for a moment，a moment，a puzzled look crossing his face．Then，suddenly，he'd pull it out：the Buried Treasure!I couldn't wait to enjoy the cool，sweet ice cream．
As quickly as he arrived，it was time for Jolly Joe to go，leaving behind laughing，excited children with sticky hands and faces．Soon the sound of his clanging bell would slowly disappear in the distance．
I always hated to see Jolly Joe go，because I knew the rest of the day would be as hot and boring as before．But I took some comfort in knowing that the next day he'd come round the corner at half past noon and once again spread his magic．
