As my plane landed in Pamplna, Spain, I culdn’t help thinking., “I’m crazy abut ging abrad and taking classes in Spanish.” My biggest fear was whether I wuld be able t cmmunicate with Spanish speakers, and hw I wuld be able t adapt t a culture that is different in s many ways frm American culture.
I had attended classes in Spanish and talked with native students fr ver a mnth but nw it gt better. When I first started, it was easy t get frustrated when I didn’t understand parts f what my prfessr was saying, r t feel embarrassed when I had t ask smene t repeat themselves many times. Hwever, peple ften plitely crrected me when I made a mistake, and als ffered supprt and wrds f encuragement. Nticing my wn prgress thrugh my increased ability t have a cnversatin has made the frustratin disslve. And it helped me reach my biggest piece f advice t anyne facing the same fear: t frce yurself t speak as much as pssible.
Anther challenge I faced was culture shck when I arrived in Spain. As smene used t stres always being pen in Seattle, I’ve had t get used t mst stres being clsed during afternn hurs and n Sundays. Plans are made much mre slwly, and usually at the last minute, which fr smene wh values rganizatin and certainty as much as I d, was difficult t get used t. The best way I fund t deal with the culture shck was t change my views. I’ve grwn t appreciate the Spanish attitude that there is mre t life than wrk. Family and friends are imprtant as well, and having s much time ff allws life utside wrk t be enjyed.
Living abrad is always frightening, especially when the language and culture are cmpletely freign. There will always be challenges, frustratins, and prblems. Hwever, learning t deal with them and appreciate the jurney has been ne f the mst valuable things I’ve learned while abrad.

Almst everyne wh has studied English has been warned abut the way Brits lve their manners. It is part f ur natinal identity, as much as fish and chips r cmplaining abut the weather. Recently I have been wndering where this cmes frm and I read nline that we say srry up t eight times a day. Prbably the same amunt f times that any ther persn says “hell” r “hw are yu”. It is almst like greetings t us! It was nly when I was explaining hw there are five steps f saying thank yu when yu buy smething frm a shp t a Mexican friend f mine that I realised hw mad it sunded.
After sme research nline I have nt been able t find any specific reasns why we are the way we are. I suppse fr centuries manners and hw we eat at the table and talk t ther peple have been the barriers between the lwer and upper classes and represent yur scial status. Britain has traditinally been a quite cnservative cuntry. There are many articles suggesting that this seemingly plite attitude f always saying please and thank yu is quite false because it is impssible t always feel that yu want t thank smene r say please.
Maybe it is fr this reasn that peple are ging ne f tw ways: they are incredibly plite and hld back n their feelings r nt plite at all, and express their true feelings. Sme Brits are fed up f pretending that they are always cntent and having t please peple. Smetimes because we feel we have t be plite, we are prevented frm saying what we truly think. D yu think it is better t nt hurt peple’s feelings and be plite r t let peple knw the truth? In yur cuntry what is the custm? I knw in sme cuntries if smene is cnsidered t be ding their jb, the clients think that they d nt need t be thanked.
32．What des the authr think f the British way f saying “Thank yu”?
A．Nrmal.B．Surprising.C．Exciting.D．Pleasing.
33．What des the authr want t find ut?
A．Why the British like t cmplain abut the weather.
B．Why the British lve their way f shwing manners.
C．Why the British are fnd f fish and chips s much.
D．Why the British have five steps f saying thank yu.
34．What des the authr think manners stand fr centuries?
A．Wealth and health.B．Scial status.C．Pliteness.D．Attitudes.
35．Why d Brits feel smetimes they have t be plite?
A．They want t express their true feelings.
B．They want t let peple knw the truth.
C．They are kept frm saying what they think.
D．They want t represent their scial status.

It was a ht July day in Philadelphia. The five bys I was with had been sick f playing marbles and burning hles in dry leaves. S when little Ned suggested climbing the cliff, the rest f kids all agreed excitedly, except me. I hesitated. I lnged t be brave and active, like them, but I’d been a sickly child mst f my eight years and I actually wasn’t as strng as the ther bys.
“Cme n!”Called Jerry, my best friend. “Just being sick is n reasn t be a cward（胆小鬼）.” “I’m cming!” I yelled, and ran alng after them. Thrugh the park and int the wds we went, finally we std beneath the near vertical（垂直的）wall f the cliff, abut 60 feet high. T me it lked like the very symbl f the Frbidden and Impssible.
One by ne, the ther bys climbed upward, finding handhlds and tehlds n rcks. I hung back until the thers were partway up; then trembling and sweating, I began t climb. A hand here, a ft there, my heart punding in my skinny chest, I made my way up and up. At sme pint, I lked back and was hrrified. The grund at the base f the cliff seemed very far belw; ne slip and I wuld fall. But the bys were talking ludly and happily abve me. In a few minutes they started up t the tp while I still struggled and crawled, far behind.
“Hey, wait,” I begged. Sadly, they ignred my request and cntinued their way t the tp, frm where they wuld walk hme by an easier rute. Befre they left, they glanced dwn at me. “Yu can stay if yu want t”, teased Ned. Jerry lked cncerned, but he went with the thers.
I lked dwn and was vercme by dizziness; a nameless frce seemed t be dragging me t fall ff. I grasped the rck as the wrld spun arund. I culd never climb back dwn. It was much t far t g, t dangerus.
Paragraph 1:
Hwever the way up t the tp was even wrse—higher, steeper, mre challenging.

Paragraph 2:
I didn’t knw hw lng it had passed until a familiar vice came belw.
