Dear Bob,

I travelled to Canada one summer with students from my French class. It was my first trip outside the United States. It was exciting because I could finally speak the foreign language I was learning and I could hear native speakers (说母语的人).

Canada is an excellent place to practise French for two reasons.

First, most people in the French-speaking part of Canada can speak both French and English. I can use French when I’m ready. There wouldn’t be much pressure (压力). If I have something very important to 65municate, they can understand me if I speak English.

Second, people there like it when you try to speak French, although you only speak a little. They hold French in higher esteem (认为……更高贵) than English.

Interestingly enough, although I wanted to 65municate in my newly learnt language, I soon found I could hardly use any of the words I had learnt when I tried to use them. We learnt the accent (口音) used in France, but the accent used in Canada is different from what we learnt. It sounded a little strange to me. And many words are 65pletely different.

Although I didn’t get many chances to practise French in Canada, I’m still thankful for this experience. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。

( )41. Where does the writer 65e from? A. France. B. Canada. C. The USA. D. The UK.

( )42. Why did the writer think the summer trip was exciting? A. Because travelling was his favourite hobby.

B. Because he could stay with his friends for a long time. C. Because he could speak French and hear native speakers. D. Because it was the first time for him to go on a summer trip.

( )43. There wouldn’t be much pressure for the writer to speak French in Canada because ________.

A. he liked talking to people in French B. French-speaking people there are friendly C. his friends would help him to 65municate D. people there could speak both English and French

( )44. The writer talked about ________ difference(s) between French used in France and Canada in the passage. A. one B. two C. three D. four

( )45. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A. The writer spoke French very well in Canada. B. The writer was thankful for his trip to Canada. C. Canada wasn’t a good place to practise French. D. Canadian people hold English in higher esteem.

Baby kangaroos (袋鼠) are called joeys. While grown kangaroos can be as tall as people, newborn joeys are as small as beans and weigh just a gram or two. A newborn joey is hairless and its eyes are closed. As soon as a joey is born, it climbs into its mother’s pouch (育儿袋). It stays there and drinks milk there for months. During this time its eyes open, and it grows hair. Soon it looks less like a bean and more like a small kangaroo.

At about four months old, a joey begins peeking out (微露出) of its mother’s pouch. It stays in the pouch to drink its mother’s milk, but it also starts to learn about the outside world. Sometimes when its mother eats grass, a joey will taste the grass, too.

When a joey is about six months old, it begins to take short trips away from its mother. It learns to jump but quickly returns to its mother’s pouch.

By the time it is eight months old, it is able to leave the pouch and stand on its own. Over the next few months the joey will spend more time out of the pouch. But it will still 65e back sometimes and put its head into the mother’s pouch to have a drink. 根据材料内容简要回答下列问题。 46. How much does a newborn joey weigh? _____________________________________ 47. What does a joey do after it is born? _____________________________________

48. When does a joey start to learn about the outside world? _____________________________________

49. What does a joey learn to do when it is about six months old? _____________________________________

50. Can a joey stand on its own when it is eight months old? _____________________________________ Ⅵ. 完成句子(共10分，每小题2分)
