1. After Nigel left his academic post and went into business,         the competitive environment.(adjust)

奈杰爾棄學從商后過了很長時間才適應那種激烈的競爭環境。

 It started in kindergarten. I made a resolution.

  I was always curious about the globe and the World Book Encyclopedia in our house.   I'd climb up to reach them and take them off the shelves. I learned a new big word continent.

  "We live in a Melting Pot , ”I remember hearing that. I noticed maps of oceans,countries and people. I began drawing pictures of the many different people who had come from all over the world to live in the United States. I wanted to see the world！

  Through travel,education,and amazing opportunities that came my way,I began my jour?ney.

  In South America,I walked through rainforests with mountains,wild life,and ...it really rained!However,I heard a talk that rainforests are disappearing ...There're lots of languages in?cluding English in Africa and also lots of poor people who live in the disadvantaged communities hardly feeding themselves... In Europe,I found out that Big Ben is not a giant person. Going to the top of the Eiffel Tower,and riding on a gondola (a kind of boat) in Venice were exciting... Sitting in a plane,I had a chance to have a glance at one of Australia's most beautiful natural gifts,the Great Barrier Reef... Asia was special when I first saw pandas. And then,in Thai?land,it was the elephants. Seeing them made me realize that animals,big and small,need the help of people like you and me...

  Antarctica is not an easy place to get to!I boarded a small plane with a scientist. While in route,depending on the weather,the pilot wasn't sure if we could land. And... we did!The scientist explained she had prepared twenty times before her first landing in Antarctica. It was like a foreign land―the land of penguins. They were all so busy but happy. My heart went out to them when I remembered the penguin movies I'd seen and the stories of sadness ...

  "Think green". I began hearing scientists predict that global warming is underway. My resolution began to evolve：I need to not just hear the words,but to learn more about " going green."I used to hear, "You can't protect what you don't know. " The one thing I've learned in all my travels is that the planet needs our help right now. We all need to find a way to help in "going green".

 As the summer time approaches,more and more commercials and advertisements can be seen on the mass media encouraging students to join English study tours abroad. The purpose of these tours is to provide students with an opportunity to learn English in a native speaking environment and use English in real situations. Parents always believe that their children will automatically speak good English after attending these study tours. However,for me,as an English major and former participant of many English study tours,I find these summer tours ineffective.

  Parents who send their children abroad for a summer to study English usually believe that the native speaking environment,including the courses,teachers,and host families,can help their children to learn English better. This might be true if the students really study hard and they really get an all-English environment. But the fact is that,most of the time,the tour part is more important than the study part.     Although these tours take place in foreign countries,students are rarely exposed in an all-English environment. You will find that,in the morning classes,Taiwanese students would like to stick together and speak Chinese with each other,even though there are some students from other countries. In the afternoon,the students go on a sightseeing excursion with their companions from Taiwan; they speak Chinese,of course. In the evening,when students return to the host families,they would stay in their room and share the day with their roommate,another Taiwanese student. People who speak the same language with you are like a log in the ocean when living in a foreign country where you can not express your?self well,so that you would naturally stick with them. This is especially true with children. An?other unrealistic expectation parents have for these tours is that the experience of living abroad can make their children more independent and mature. However,maturity does not come over?night. It takes time and practice. The most important of all is that they need a good mentor. None of these exist in the study tours.

   A. Doubtful. B. Positive. C. Negative. D. Neutral.

(   ) 2. Which of the following is the most important thing for children who study in an Eng?lish environment according to the writer?

   A. Host families. B. Hard work. C. Courses. D. Teachers.

(   ) 3. Why are students rarely exposed in an all-English environment?

   A. The study tour itself makes it less important for students to expose themselves in an all-English environment.

   B. Staying with the students from the same country makes study easy abroad.

   C. They only want to stay with their English teachers.

   D. They are not sure about their spoken English.

(   ) 4. What makes parents send their children to join English study tours abroad according to the text?

   A. Parents' misunderstanding to the ads.

   B. Parents' lack of information.

   C. Parents' unrealistic expectation.
