    During my first two weeks at the University of California, Berkeley, I experienced some unexpected, funny, and sometimes embarrassing(令人尴尬的) situations. Allow me to share some with you.
    But first, let me give advice to other foreign students who plan to study in the United States. Check the weather before coming! I was very sure that California was sunny all year around so I left all my jackets and sweaters in Paris. It was a huge mistake! It rained almost every day during the first week in Berkeley.
    I have to say that I quickly forgot these unlucky events. Life in Berkeley is very pleasant and everything is so easy compared to Paris. For example, in only 24 hours I bought a mobile phone and made the lease(租约) agreement for a flat. What's more, almost all the shops are open on Sunday, which is very practical for me.
    The first thing that surprised me is that students may come late to class. They freely enter and leave the classroom many times during class. In France, students respect the teacher's lesson, so they are never late and they leave the classroom only at the end of the class.
    The local people in California are in general very nice, open and active, However, I am not totally used to their habits yet. Indeed, I was used to shaking my friends' hands every day in France. During my second day at Berkeley, I shook the hand of one of my classmates whom I had met the day before and he told me “I think we already met!”
    Another funny story happened during the first party I attended: A girl that I meet before came to hug me. I thought she wanted to kiss me like we usually do in France to say hello. So I kissed her and she seemed a little bit embarrassed.
    I live a great experience at present, and I would just encourage any student to become a member in  a program at UC, Berkeley.

20. 请认真阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

    Your body is special – no two people in the world are alike, Although you are different from everyone else, you have exactly the same body parts as the people around you, doing different jobs that keep all of us alive.
    What is inside my head ?
    Your head houses the most valuable part of your body – your brain. As you are reading, your eyes send pictures to your brain which makes meaning from what you see. Your brain helps you to remember and think, and makes sure your body is doing what it should.
    What is my skin(皮肤) for ?
    Your skin covers your body. In most parts of your body, the skin is just as thick as half a centimeter. If you have your skin cut, it will have a quick cure and stop viruses from getting into your body. Your skin also helps you feel the heat and coldness of the environment around you. Hair grows from inside the skin. When you feel hot, extra heat comes out through your skin. As a result, your body temperature drops.
    How do I move ?
    Muscles(肌肉) are found in most parts of your body. They work with your bones to help you move – whenever you cry or smile, eat or speak, walk or dance, etc.
    Why do I breathe ?
    Your body needs to take in oxygen from the air and give out the unwanted carbon dioxide in the body. When you breathe, air comes through your nose and mouth into your lungs(肺) where oxygen flows to different parts of your body.
    What makes me sneeze ?
    When dust or a strong smell gets into your nose, you sneeze. This is the way your body cleans up the dust in your nose. Your lungs push out the air and try to clear your nose.
    What does my heart do ?
    Your heart is a very special muscle. It is slightly bigger than your fist (拳头) and grows bigger as you do. If you place your hand on your heart, you will feel your heart beating which forces blood to move around your body.

21. Although you are young, you can  (仍然) make the world more beautifulin your own way.

  “Jamila, you just put that money into the back of your book. I'm quite sure that you're not going to be able to find it when you need it.” her mother said. “You see, some of your money is in the pencil case on your desk. Some is in the glove hanging behind the door. I think you might also have a few dollars in your bag. You are such a careless girl.”

   “Mom. I'm too busy to take care of my money.”
