Question

【題目】 If you want to study in a foreign country, you have to think about where to live. Because I'm still too young to rent a flat by myself. I am living with a homestay family in Canada and I feel like I'm part of the family.

I had a homestay in 2013 for the first time. During that time, I stayed in Ajax, a town in Canada for a week with a homestay family. Carlton lives with his nephew and hisniece-in-law（侄子和侄媳婦）.Carlton drove me to a school to learn about Canadian culture every morning, and he picked me up in the afternoons. Our free time was in the evening. The meals he made for me were delicious and we usually watched a movie after dinner. I couldn’t forget the life there although I didn't live there for a long time.

I'm now living with a Hungarian（匈牙利）family with another Chinese boy. There are two family members — Mrs.Perger and her son, Robert. I've already lived here for nine months. Once, my roommate went running and didn't come back for a long time. Mrs. Perger called him, but he didn't answer the phone. She began to worry about him and cry. Fortunately, he was fine and got back home later. I was deeply moved.

However, living with a homestay family also has some problems. when you live with a foreign family, you live a lifestyle different from your own family’s. It may take you a long time to get used to (習(xí)慣于)it.

【解析】

文章大意：本文主要是在講述作者與外國寄宿家庭一起生活的一些經(jīng)歷。作者在國外留學(xué)，因為年齡太小不能自己租房，于是選擇了寄宿家庭。并提到雖然作者花了很多時間去適應(yīng)這種不同的生活方式，但作者也從中學(xué)到了很多。

【1】細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第2段提到“Carlton lives with his nephew and his niece-in-law.（卡爾頓和他的侄兒以及外甥女住在一起。）”可知，在作者住進去之前，卡爾頓家有3個人。結(jié)合選項，A項2個；B項3個；C項4個；D項5個�？芍�，本題答案為B。

【2】詞義猜測題。根據(jù)She began to worry about him and cry. Fortunately, he was fine and got back home later. I was deeply moved. 她開始擔(dān)心他，哭了起來。幸運的是，他很好，后來回家了。我深受感動。可知，下劃線單詞的意思是“幸運”，故選D 。

【3】細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第4段提到“The biggest challenge for me has been the totally different lifestyle, which took me a long time to get used to.（對我來說最大的挑戰(zhàn)是完全不同的生活方式，這花了我很長時間來適應(yīng)。）”可知，作者已經(jīng)習(xí)慣了這種不同的生活方式，故A項錯誤。根據(jù)文章第3段提到“There are two family members---Mrs Perger and her son, Robert. I've already lived here for nine months and I have been deeply moved by many things they've done.（有兩個家庭成員——佩格爾夫人和她的兒子羅伯特。我已經(jīng)在這里住了9個月了，他們所做的許多事情都深深地打動了我。）”可知，作者被佩格爾一家的所作所為深深打動了，故B項正確。根據(jù)文章第3段提到“I'm now living with a Hungarian family with another Chinese boy.（我現(xiàn)在和另一個中國男孩住在一個匈牙利家庭。）”和“I've already lived here for nine months（我已經(jīng)在這里住了9個月了）”可知，作者和一個匈牙利家庭一起生活了9個月，故C項錯誤。根據(jù)文章第1段提到“As I'm still too young to rent an apartment by myself. I live with a homestay family and I feel like I'm part of it.（因為我還太小，不能自己租房住。我和一個寄宿家庭住在一起，我覺得我是它的一部分。）”可知，作者是因為年齡太小，不能自己租房住才選擇了寄宿家庭，而不是因為付不起房租，故D項錯誤。結(jié)合選項，可知本題答案為B。

【4】細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第3段提到“Once, my roommate went running and didn't come back for quite a long time. Mrs Perger called him, but he didn't answer the phone. She began to worry about him, and was even about to cry.（有一次，我的室友去跑步，很長一段時間沒有回來。佩格爾夫人給他打了電話，但他沒有接。她開始為他擔(dān)心，甚至想哭。）”可知，佩格爾夫人是一個細心而且關(guān)心他人的人。結(jié)合選項，A項細心和關(guān)心他人的；B項外向和勇敢的；C項嚴肅和具有挑戰(zhàn)性的；D項外向和幽默的�？芍�本題答案為A。

【5】細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第5段提到“Living with a homestay family has given me a lot of new experiences.（住在寄宿家庭給了我很多新的經(jīng)歷。）”和全文內(nèi)容可知，本文主要是在講述作者與外國寄宿家庭一起生活的一些經(jīng)歷。結(jié)合選項，A項關(guān)于加拿大寄宿家庭的生活；B項寄宿家庭的缺點；C項與外國寄宿家庭一起生活的經(jīng)歷；D項給那些想和寄宿家庭一起生活的人的建議�？芍�本題答案為C。
