I left my hometown in London last year and now I have enjoyed working in this small city in China. Learning a foreign language opens you up to the culture and history of a country. So in order to know more about China, I started to learn Chinese.
But at times, I found myself in funny situations. When I greeted strangers in China, they began to talk a lot and very fast. They asked me questions about everything. But all I could do was to look at them with a blank face. I had no idea what they were talking about. Were they just being kind, funny or impolite? Many people want to make friends with me. But I am a bit upset when I find out the reason why they need a foreign friend. They say they want to practice their English. I don’t need friends like this. I like friends to share my feelings and ideas with.
However, the more Chinese I learn, the more similarities I find it has with English. In English, thick-skinned is to describe a person who doesn’t care for criticism(批评). I was surprised to find that houlianpi in Chinese means the same. And both languages share some common idioms(习语). For ex ample, “look on with folded arms” means xiushoupangguan, and “burn the boats” is similar to pofuchenzhou.
I’m still on my journey to learn Chinese. I believe that sometimes you have the most fun on a journey.
( )11. The writer comes from .
A. the UK
B. the USA
C. Australia
D. Canada
( )12. Many Chinese want to make friends with the writer because .
A. they are interested in Western culture
B. they want a partner to practice English with
C. they are willing to share feelings and ideas with him
D. they want to help foreigners with their Chinese
( )13. The underlined word “similarities” means “” in Chinese.
A. 相似点
B. 不同点
C. 规律性
D. 重要性
( )14. A thick-skinned person may .
A. be very strong and seldom fall ill
B. like to criticize others for their mistakes
C. talk a lot and speak fast
D. feel OK when he’s criticized
( 145. If there would be a paragraph before the last paragraph of the text, it most probably would be about .
A. the reasons why he wants to learn Chinese
B. the similarities Chinese and English share
C. the differences between Chinese and English
D. the importance of learning Chinese and English

When I was 5 years old, I went to the USA with my mom. I can still remember the first Halloween holiday I had in the USA.
On the morning of Halloween, we paid a visit to a pumpkin farm. Each of us brought a pumpkin to school with us. I used the pumpkin to make a lantern which had two triangle eyes and a scary mouth.
In the afternoon, we put on the Halloween costumes and went on parade in school. Some of the costumes were nice, but some of them looked scary. I chose to wear a suit of Superman’s clothes.
I did a lot of things that day, but the part I liked best was “trick or treat” in the evening. After dinner, I went outside with an empty bag. I hoped to get a lot of candies from people. At first, I was a bit nervous, so when I knocked at the door, my heart was beating very fast. A lady came out, and I said careful ly to her, “Trick or treat.” My voice was very low, and even myself could hardly hear it. To my surprise, the lady was so kind to give me two candy bars, and I was so excited, thanked the lady and moved on. I couldn’t remember how many houses I visited, but I could remember how many candies I got—I got 91 pieces of candy that day, and I was so proud of myself.
What a happy Halloween I had! And I wish we could have a Halloween every month!
