I was born in Thailand, where I feel at home. I am used to jumping on to a song taow (red taxi), and squeezing (挤过) in between two strangers. I am used to bargaining at the market to get a shirt that I like. I love telling bilingual (双语的) jokes and I am used to the surprised looks I get from the Thais when I can speak their language fluently.
Every two years my family goes to America for the summer, and every two years my world is turned upside down. The prices of everything are three times what they were in Thailand, but there is the sweet drink Dr. Pepper! And Bluebell Ice-cream! And everything you could imagine! I am amazed at it all, but the biggest change for me is the people. There are white people everywhere. I am not tall but average (中等的), my yellow hair is no longer out of place, and speaking English no longer draws looks. I should feel comfortable. I’m not out of place anymore, and nobody is looking at me, but I feel like they are. Now I feel out of place and different. I’m not used to giving people handshakes and hugs when I meet them for the first time. I get looks when I have trouble figuring out how much money to pay. I know different music, different places, and different fashion. I can’t understand these people who have never left their town or city.
Still, there are quite a few perks about living overseas. I get to meet people from all over the world, and I know how to adjust to (适应) different cultures and places. I have been to places most people see only in geography books. Still, being so different makes it hard to know who you are. I’m not Thai, but I am not American either. I am a mix of both cultures, a third culture kid.
1.When the Thais give the author surprised looks, she feels _____.
A. upset B. strange
C. normal D. different
2.When the author returns to America, _____.
A. she makes more friends
B. she becomes more polite
C. she can’t find what she needs
D. she is like a fish out of water
3.The underlined word “perks” in the last paragraph can be replaced by _____.
A. reasons B. problems
C. advantages D. suggestions
4.In this text, the author mainly wants to describe _____.
A. her different lifestyles
B. a kind of culture shock
C. a feeling of loneliness
D. her ability to face difficulties

It’s the ending of 2016，but as USA Today says，“it’s never too late to plan your 2016 travels”．With so many hot destinations around the globe，“where should I go?” can be difficult to answer. According to Lonely Planet，though，Brazil is a fine choice－on Aug.29，the travel guide named that country the top one to visit in 2016.
“As if endless strands of coast and mountains，splashed with rainforest didn’t already add up to an unfair share of heaven (天堂)，Brazil will hold two of the greatest sporting events in the world，beginning with the 2014 FIFA World Cup and followed by the 2016 Summer Olympics，”explained Lonely Planet.
Brazil is the largest and most populous country in South America. It boasts(自豪拥有) the Amazon，the world’s largest jungle，which is home to a variety of plants and animals. But the great landscape is not the only thing Brazilians take pride in.
The colors green and yellow might make most people think of Brazil’s soccer team even more than its national flag. Soccer is more than a sport in Brazil；it’s a way of life. In fact，the World Cup brings Brazilians together. It is interesting to note，that the general elections(大选) in Brazil are usually held during the same year as the World Cup. Political parties try to take advantage of the patriotic enthusiasm created by soccer to inspire political energy.
Alongside soccer，samba is another symbol of Brazil. The country’s most traditional dance is highlighted every February at the Rio Carnival，which is one of the world’s biggest.
“Brazil has left its second-class nation status，” said former Brazilian president Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva in 2009 after Rio de Janeiro was awarded the 2016 Olympics.
Brazil’s growing economy，fueled (刺激) by oil and aircraft factories，has made it more than just a nation of samba，soccer and beaches. These days，it might just be the best tourist destination in the world.
1.Which is true about Brazil?
A. It will hold the FIFA World Cup and the Summer Olympics in 2016.
B. Soccer and samba are two symbols of the country.
C. It is the largest country with the longest history in South America.
D. Its Amazon is the world’s largest jungle, Brazilians take pride in only.
2.We can tell from the words of Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva that ________.
A. his country will be the first class nation status after the 2016 Olympics
B. his country has been left behind by other second-class nations
C. he is confident that his country has developed very fast
D. the 2016 Olympics, not samba or soccer, has made his country the first class
3.The author’s purpose in writing the article is to ________.
A. prove that Lonely Planet’s recommendation is right
B. give an introduction of Brazil as a tourist destination
C. give an objective review of Brazil as a nation
D. explain why Brazil will be holding the two sporting events
