“USA? Britain? Which country is better to study in?”We often hear such discussions. As China opens its doors, studying abroad has become a dream for many Chinese students. They want to learn about the world.

It’s true that studying abroad can help students develop themselves. Language skills will improve and it may be easier to find jobs.

But there are problems that should be considered. Language is the first. Students must spend a lot of time learning another language and getting used to a different culture.

Students must also learn to live without parents’ care and deal with all kinds of things they haven’t had to do before, like looking after themselves. There are reports about Chinese students abroad sinking into an ocean of difficulties and giving up easily. When they have to take care of themselves, it is hard for students to study well.

Finally, studying abroad brings a heavy burden(负担) to the family. For most Chinese parents, the cost of studying abroad is very high. But is it worth it?

We know that there are many famous people who succeed in great things through their hard work in China. Liu Xiang is a good example. Once an American teacher invited him there but he refused. He kept training hard with his Chinese teacher. He surprised the world when he won a gold medal at the Athens Olympics. So when you wonder which country is better to study in, consider whether studying abroad is the right choice.

Imagine the situation. You are driving along in a desert or on a mountain. You have no idea where you are. You passed the last house two hours ago. Then your car breaks down. It is night and it is cold. You have no mobile phone. What do you do? Well, next time take a GPS with you. This invention may be able to help you. It is a device(装置) which uses satellites to find the user’s position. It can find your position to within 20 meters. A GPS cannot start your car, but at least you will know where you are.

GPS, which means Global Positioning System(全球定位系统), is a small radio receiver. It looks like a mobile phone. You can hold it in your hand, or put in you pocket. It is sometimes put into a watch or a telephone. We also find GPS devices in cars, planes, or boats. Some of these devices have electronic maps, so you know where you are. For example, in a city they can tell you the name of the street.

There are three parts to the Global Positioning System. The first part is the receiver. You can hold it in your hand, or have it fixed into your car, plane, etc. the second part is a group of satellites orbiting the Earth. The receiver contacts at least four of the satellites and calculates its position. The third part of the system is a network of ground stations. They are all over the world. They control the satellites and make sure they are working well.

Some people think that in the future the GPS will be as common as the mobile. They are becoming cheaper and more and more accurate(精确的). There are also new uses for the GPS. Perhaps they will become like watches. Everyone will have one and you will never be lost again.GPS

A. The history of the GPS              B. the introduction of GPS

“Never give up!” It is my law of my life. It has brought me             . I learned the law from my father’s story.

My father was born in a poor village in the north of Jiangsu, China. When he was a young boy, he went to school in the morning, then               in the fields till sunset. And then he did his homework during midnight. Life was hard, because they had no money!

At the age of 14, my father heard of       . It was the land of gold, the land where              people can become rich.

           don’t I go to America?” he thought to himself, full of hope.

So, my father came to America. “I had thought it was easy to               money in America,” he told me.                    when I arrived there, I realized it was not true. They did not like hiring me because I spoke little English. Later, I worked in a small restaurant, cleaning up tables, washing dishes and sweeping the floor. Life was              for the first few years. I worked from 10 am to 11 pm. I wanted to go to school to learn English, but it was impossible. I couldn’t               the schooling.”

My father kept working hard, and reached his goal!

   At present, almost everyone has a mobile phone, but have you ever thought that cell phones          be bad for your health? A study shows that heavy mobile phone use may cause hearing loss.

This study shows that people who use cell phones for about an hour a day have a            time hearing some similar sounds, especially in their right ears. It is getting harder for          to tell the difference between the sounds of “s” and “f”, and “t” and “z”.

Researchers studied 100 people who used cell phones and              them with 50 people who did not. The study lasted for 12 months. What the researchers found was that cell phone users had more hearing           than those who did not use cell phones.

Besides this, our ears have many little           inside them. Too much noise will cause these hairs to get weak and            die. When these hairs die, it affects our ability to listen.

However, cell phone users don’t care too much            this study. One man said, “I’d be more worried about people who              MP3 players. They put those earphones in their ears and listen to very            music. I think that is more likely to cause hearing loss than a cell phone.”

1.A. should         B. need        C. might        D. must

2.A. busier         B. happier      C. harder        D. shorter

3.A. us            B. you         C. it            D. them

4.A. compared      B. suggested    C. showed       D. taught

5.A. advantages     B. problems     C. rules         D. experiences

6.A. noises         B. pains        C. hairs         D. pimples

7.A. hardly         B. actually      C. clearly         D. finally

8.A. to            B. with         C. about         D. of

9.A. produce       B. use          C. discover       D. see

10.A. beautiful      B. soft          C. loud        D. Light
