6．Table manners are very different in every country．For example，when you are in England you must not lift your soup plate to your mouth．This is very impolite．But when you are in Japan this is completely normal．Lifting your plate to your mouth in Japan is a traditional way of drinking your soup．And also in Japan you don't have to worry about making a noise when you drink it．It just shows that you really like the food!But it is not the same in Britain，so you shouldn't make a noise when eating there．
In Britain，people don't put their hands or arms on the table during the meal．But in Mexico，guests keep their hands on the table all the time．In fact，you should watch what your hands do very carefully．In Arab countries，it is impolite when you eat with your left hand，so don't do it!
In all the cultures it is impolite to speak when you are eating．In Ukraine you should not start eating first； you should wait for all the others to start eating with you．You also have to say"please"and"thank you"every time you ask for and get something．If you don't like some food，don't make faces and don't say："Yuk!I hate that!"
The best way to avoid making mistakes in other countries is to watch the host and try to do as he does．

11．Don't Ban Exams
While a new school term is about to begin，perhaps we should reconsider the matter of examinations．In July，two writers praised the cancellationof exams because they believe"test don't tell the whole story"．
As a teacher who has worked in four countries，I have had the experience that a student who earns good marks is generally a good student，and that a student's final mark in a subject is usually an average of the year's work．Of course there are exceptions，but they do not have the frequency that would give an unfair picture of a student's ability．
The simple fact is that proper class work，diligent exam studies and good marks are almost certain indicators of a student's future performance．The opposite，almost certainly，incompetence．
There is no acceptable substitute for competition and examination of quality．How can teachers and future officials determine what a student has learned and remembered？Should we simply take the student's word for it？Any institution that"liberates"students from fair and formal exams is misguided if not ignorant．And surely the graduates of such institutions will lack trustworthiness，not to mention being rejected by foreign universities for post graduates or other studies．
When all is said and done，I sense that a fear of failure and a fear of unpleasant comparison with others is at the bottom of most ban exam talk．Excellence and quality fear nothing．On the contrary，they seek competition．

31．What does the underlined word"cancellation"in the first paragraph mean？C
A．A decision to support something．
B．A plan to do something．
C．A decision to stop something from happening．
D．A decision that has already been arranged．
32．Which is NOT mentioned in the passage？B
A．The writer has worked in four countries．
B．All the students are afraid of exams．
C．Diligent exam studies and good marks are almost certain indicators of a student's future performance．
D．Any institution that"liberates"students from fair and formal exams is misguided if not ignorant．
33．Which is NOT right according to the passage？C
A．Some people believe that test can't tell the whole story．
B．Nothing can take the place of exams．
C．All the students will get good marks in the exams．
D．Excellence and quality fear nothing．
34．The writer writes this passage toA．
A．tell people that exams can't be cancelled 
B．blame the two writers
C．persuade the two writers 
D．tell a story．
18．Two weeks later，I registered for my course and started going to lectures．It was really difficult to concentrate at first，and I could only really pick up bits and pieces．Over time though，as my Spanish improved，it became a lot easier and a lot more interesting．
I made friends with the other Erasmus students in my classes．It was difficult to get to know the Spanish students as most of them had already formed their own groups of friends and stuck to them．I did meet a few friendly Spanish people，but the vast majority of my friends were other foreign students．
I didn't really experience too much of a culture shock as I learnt a lot about the country through my major courses，but there were a few things that still took me by surprise，such asthe laid-back attitudeof the people．It meant life moved in general at a slower pace，which could be frustrating at times，but 1 soon grew to love it．
I didn't miss home too much as I kept in contact with family and friends online through Skype．It was also easy to get a cheap flight back for the weekend if I liked a weekend of home comforts．However，I was always so busy that I never really spared time for homesickness．My family came over a few times to visit and it was always good to have a fresh perspective（视角） on the city as they would appreciate things about Valencia I hadn't noticed or took for granted．
I have many fond memories of Valencia，especially the days spent on the sunny beach the brilliant food，the all-night party and the festivals．I'll definitely go back for a weekend with all the friends 1 met there and I hope to keep in touch with my Spanish friends too．I thoroughly recommend studying abroad，and although it may seem tough early on，the chances are you'll have a great time．
