Dear Nancy,
Thanks for your message. Yes, I"m having a great time on my exchange program in France. It"s even
better than I thought it would be. I was 1 nervous before I arrived here, but there was 2 reason to be.
My host family is really nice. They 3 to make me feel at home. And you wouldn"t believe how quickly my
French has improved! I"m very comfortable speaking French now. My biggest challenge is learning how
to behave at the dinner table. As you 4 imagine, things are really different from the way they are at home.
For example, you shouldn"t put your bread on your plate. You 5 it on the table! I thought that was pretty
strange at first, 6 now I"m used to it. You shouldn"t eat anything with your hands 7 bread, not even fruit!
(You have to cut it up and eat it with a fork. ) Another thing is that it is very 8 to say you"re full. If you
don"t want any more food, you should just say,"It was delicious." Also, it"s not polite to put your hands in
your lap.. You should always keep your hands, but not your elbows, on the table. I have to say, I find 9
difficult to remember everything, but I"m gradually getting used to things, and don"t find them so strange
any more. I"ll write soon and tell you more about life in France. Hope 10 a good school year.

I"m very happy to be your guest speaker today. It"s a great pleasure to visit your school and meet all
of you here.
I would like to tell you about myself. I have been a reporter for the past fifteen years. I chose this job so
I could travel the world, but the job has taught me many unforgettable lessons. This work is sometimes
difficult. I have seen wars, earthquakes, poverty and death. But I have also seen courage, hope and happiness.
In India, I visited a city, There were many homeless children in it. Some were young and lived in the streets. But then a kind lady called Rosa opened a home for them. In one whole year, she was looking after two
hundred children, feeding them, teaching them and giving them hope.
Another time, I was in Japan after a terrible earthquake. In a place, I found an old lady. Her house fell
down. Her son could hardly be alive., But the lady didn"t give up hope. For four days, she moved heavy
stones by herself. She didn"t stop until she found her son. He was still alive.
Here in China, I met a young boy with a serious illness. He had to have twenty operations in hospital.
But when I met him, he was still smiling.
Now when my life is difficult, I always remember the courage of the three people. | | 1. The guest speaker has worked as a reporter for _________ years. | A. 13

are in fashion this year?" And they often use the word"fashionable" in the same way.."She was wearing a
fashionable coat," or "His shirt is really a fashionable color."
Of course there are fashions in many things, not only in clothes. There are fashions in holidays, in
restaurants, in films and in books. There are even fashions in school subjects, jobs and in languages.
Fashions change as time goes by. If you look at pictures of people or things from the past, you will see
that fashions have always changed. An English hduse of 1750 was not the same as one of 1650. A fashionable
man in 1780 looked very different from his grandson in 1860.
Today fashions change very quickly. Some of this is natural. We hear about things much more quickly
than in the past. Newspapers, radios, telephones and televisions can now send information from one country
to another within a few hours.
New fashions mean that people will buy new things r so, as you can see, there is a lot of money in fashion. | | 1. From this passage we know that "fashion" means _________. | A. new clothes only
