• 3．Moving to a foreign country is an amazing，life-changing experience.It's an opportunity to meet new people，make yourself completely involved in a different culture and possibly learn another language.However，before embarking on such an adventure，there are some practical decisions that need to be made.One such decision is choosing where to live.
     For me，choosing to live with a French family was the best choice I made，and here are the reasons.
     Firstly，a family can show you around the city or town and help you settle in，stopping you from feeling lonely.When you're in new surroundings with people you don't know and who are speaking a language you're still not fluent in，you might feel lost，tired and homesick—I know I did.However，my host family are wonderful and welcoming；they showed me which buses to take to get to work，cooked dinner for me，and took me with them on trips to the beach，the theatre and even a bullring.These were great opportunities to experience French culture and build relationships，which in turn helped me feel at home and welcome.
     Moreover，living with French people has been beneficial to helping me improve my language skills.Being constantly exposed to authentic French conversation has allowed me to learn new phrases，widen my vocabulary and even improve my accent.My host family are happy to answer my questions and correct me when I say things wrong，which makes me a better and more confident French speaker.
     Finally，the experience of living abroad is one that you will remember forever，and perhaps the friendships—like the memories—will also last.Your host family might become your friends for life.You might return for their birthdays，weddings，holidays，and many more things.I sincerely hope to remain in contact with my host family long after I leave France because when I was away from my friends and loved ones，they welcomed me and made me part of their family.
  
  （1）What does the underlined phrase "embarking on" in Paragraph 1 refer to？

  
  A．Remarking on.
  B．Setting about.
  C．Depending on
  D．Writing down.
  （2）Where did the writer choose to live when moving to a foreign country？

  
  A．In a dormitory.
  B．In his own apartment.
  C．In a host family.
  D．In his friend's house.
  （3）What is the advantage of living with French people for the writer？

  
  A．Improving his French skills.
  B．Feeling homesick and lonely.
  C．Making friends from different countries.
  D．Introducing English culture to the French.
  （4）How does the writer develop the passage？

  
  A．By making comparisons.
  B．By following the order of time.

  The Gift of Kindness Will，a nine-year-old boy，was such a kind person that he brought home birds with broken wings.Money was very short for his family because his mother was ill.Every weekend，Will would mow his neighbors lawns to earn a little money.
      One hot dry morning，on his way to school，Will saw a man sitting on the roadside with his head in his hands.Not far away was his truck.Previously，the man spared no efforts in repairing it，but he failed，exhausted and thirsty.Will came up to him，ready to help.
      Hearing Will's greeting，the man raised his head，looked at Will and asked for some water.Learning that he had even not had breakfast，Will walked into a shop，fingering the money in his pocket.Eventually，he picked up sandwiches and water.They cost all his money!He shrugged，walked back and handed him the food.
      The man received the supplies gratefully and they shared the brief meal while introducing themselves.Allan，a boss with a small factory who delivered goods by himself，smiled，" The delivering job is so tiring that nobody seems to want it.By the way，thank you for your food.I'm sorry that I forget to take money with me today.I'll."
      "It's OK.My mom always says we should be kind to the world，and the world will be kind to you!" Will shrugged， "As for the job，don't worry.There must be someone wanting to take it."
  "Perhaps.Today，I feel kindness in the world like your mom says.Maybe she is the one the world has been kind to." Allan commented.
      Will lowered his head，explaining quietly his mother's situation and his father's just being out of work because of the bankrupt of the company.Will pointed at a house. "My dad says we'll have to sell it to pay for mom's treatment.Sometimes，I hope the world could be kind to our family soon." Tears rolled down Will's cheeks and Allan patted his back gently.But soon，Will wiped his face，shouldered his school bag，waved goodbye to Allan and rushed for school，never imagining he would see Allan ever again.
      Allan stared at Will's fading figure，lost in thought.
