One kind of culture shock faced by international students in the United States is difficult

that their verbal skill is poor. First of all, they lack vocabulary, and they have poor
(22) , so American people cannot
understand them. For example, a few days ago, I asked an American student
(23) to get to the library, but because I have trouble
pronouncing r‟s and l‟s, the student didn‟t understand me. I finally had to write it on a
piece of paper. Also, Americans talk too fast, (24) it is impossible to understand
them. In addition, Americans also use a lot of slang and idioms whose meanings non-
native speakers do not know. In short, communication is probably the first problem the

Many parents may feel that social networking sites are a waste of their children‟s time.
However, new research claims that the communication opportunities provided by social
networking encourage young people to explore their interests, develop technical skills,
and work on new forms of self- expression.The three-year study carried out by a
University of California research team that interviewed over 800 teens and conducted
over 2000 hours of online observations.It found that social networking helps teenagers
learn the social and technical skills they need to be knowledgeable citizens in the digital
age.
The study concludes that social networking contributes to young people‟s extended
friendships and interests. While the majority of teens use social networking sites to
“hang out” with people they already know in real life, some use them to find like-
minded people. Those interested in chess or international politics, for instance, can
expand their circle with others who share the same interests and can find information
that goes beyond that they have access to at school. They can also publicize and
distribute their music, art work, or writing to online audiences, and gain visibility and
enhance their reputations. The researchers said teens usually respect one another‟s
authority online, and they are often more motivated to learn one another than from
their parents or other adults.
True or False ? (1pt)

FALSE( 1.5pts)
It is not easy for adult students of English to improve their accents. Unlike children, who
are flexible, adults often find it hard to change the way they speak. This is why even the
top or smartest adult students have difficulty with pronunciation. There are several
things that an international student can do to improve his or her pronunciation
One method is to sign up for a pronunciation class. Studying pronunciation can help
students to understand the rules of English, but in order to practice speaking, students
often need to be exposed to English outside the classroom as well. This is why many
students say that studying in an English_ speaking country greatly affects their English.
Living with native speakers can help students learn important cultural information. This
can help to prevent misunderstandings that can occur when people from different
cultures live together.
Living with someone from another culture can be difficult. International students are
usually excited when they first show up at their new homes, but after a few months they
may start to think about their home countries and get homesick. Students who are
homesick get depressed quickly. They might cry a lot or want to be alone. This makes it
difficult for them to make friends and learn English
19. Attending a pronunciation class can be very helpful to adult learners who have
problems with their pronunciation
20. Misunderstandings can‟t occur when people from different countries live together.
21. On their arrival, most international students may forget about the problems because
they are very excited. 22.The passage implies that adult learners shouldn‟t study English

For many people the language of the Internet is English. “World, Wide, Web: three
English words” was the name of the article by Michael Specter in the New York Times a
few years ago. The article went on to say: “If you want to take full advantage of the
Internet, there is only one real way to do it: learn English.” In general, it is not difficult to
learn to use Internet services. But although Internet services are rather easy to use, you
will have considerable difficulties if you are not familiar with English. In fact, a good
knowledge of English is one of the most important aspects that help you use the
Internet. Learning to use a new Internet service may take a few hours, a few days or
some weeks, but it takes years to learn a language so that you can use it fluently and
confidently. Of course, when you know some English, you can learn more just by using it
on the Internet. But at least your English should be good enough to understand
commonly used words and to know what to do on the Internet.
