This past fall semester, at Duke University, there were two students who were taking Organic Chemistry. They did pretty well on all of the tests and the midterms and labs,etc., such that going into the final they had a solid “A” . There two friends were so confident going into the final that the weekend before finals’ week，even though the Chemistry final was on Monday, they decided to go up to the University of Virginia and have a party with some friends up there. So they did this and had a great time. However, with the aftereffects of alcohol and everything, they overslept all day Sunday and didn’t make it back to Duke until early Monday morning.
Rather than taking the final then, what they did was to find Professor Aldric after the final and explain to him why they missed the final. They told him that they went up to UVA for the weekend, and had planned to come back in time to study，but they had a flat tire (爆胎）on the way back and didn’t have a spare and couldn’t get help for a long time and so were late getting back to campus.
Aldric thought this over and then agreed that they could make up the final on the following day. The two guys were overjoyed and relieved. So, they studied that night and went in the next day at the time that Aldric had told them. He placed them in separate rooms and handed each of them a test booklet and told them to begin.
They looked at the first problem, which was something simple about free radical formation and was worth 5 points. “Cool，" they thought, “this is going to be easy. " They did that problem and then turned the page. They were unprepared, however, for what they saw on the next page. It said: (95 points) Which tire was flat？
The two students decided to visit their friends at the weekend beacause_______
A.they didn’t want to take the exam
B.they were invited by their friends
C.they were not worried about the exam at all
D.they forget the arrangement of the final exam
They didn’t return as planned because_______.A.they got lost on their way back
B.they slept beyond the time to come back
C.their car broke down on their way back
D.they couldn’t get help when they were in difficulty
How did the Professor arrange the make-up exam？A.He made the exam booklet very long.

B.it was too much
C.it was too difficiult
D.it was reasonable
It can be inferred from the passage that_______.A.the students didn’t like Professor Aldric

听力原文：W: Good evening! Welcome to our Talk Show program. Our guest today is Mr. David Smith, who had the experiences of studying abroad for seven years and then returning back home. Well, Mr. Smith, do you think going abroad was the hard part？
M: I don't think so, but returning back home was really hard.
W: Why？
M: Well, for many students, returning back to their home countries can be a very confusing experience.
W: Re-entry Shock! That sounds quite interesting. Can you explain it？
M: For example, many students who come to the United States experience freedoms they have never enjoyed in their country.
W: Sure, such as freedom from family, freedom from cultural norms they didn't like and freedom from the pressures of working in a real job.
M: However, too much freedom and unstructured life can lead to other problems. Students sometimes skip classes, stay out late, and engage in activities that their families and cultures might not approve of, but students want to enjoy "freedom" while it lasts.
W: So when students return back to their countries, they can struggle with fitting back into the cultural norms and family expectations of the past.
M: Yes. Naturally, depression is possible and a loss of self can result.
W: Then what can students do to minimize this Re-entry Shock？
M: First of all, keep in contact with your family and friends while you are abroad. They will be your first source of advice and support once you return.
W: What else？
M: Second, have a clear plan what you will do when you return. Start looking for a job now or apply to enter a school months before you return. Re-entry Shock can be greatest when you have nothing to do when you return.

A．How to go abroad for study.
B．How to enjoy the freedom abroad.
C．How to look for a job after returning back from abroad.

Many years ago when the summers seemed longer and life was less complicated, we had rented a cottage 31 a river in the heart of the country 32 the whole family was going to 33 a three-week holiday. There were four of us: me, Mum and Dad, and Mum‟s sister, Auntie June. Oh, and I mustn‟ t forget to 34 Spot, our little dog. I was 35 to go off by myself all day, 36 I promised to be careful and took Spot with me for 37.
One day I was out fishing with Spot when we heard a lot of shouting in the 38 followed by a scream and splash. I was a bit 39 so I called Spot and we both hid 40 a bush where we could see but not be 41 . After a few moments, a straw hat came drifting down the river, followed by an oar, a picnic basket and 42 oar. Then came the rowing boat itself, but it was 43 upside down ! A few seconds later my Dad and Auntie June came running 44 the river bank, both wet 45 . Spot started barking so I came out of hiding and said hello. My Dad got really angry 46 me for not trying to catch the boat as it went past. Luckily, 47 , the boat and both the oars had been caught by an overhanging tree a little further downstream, but not the hat or picnic basket. So I had to let them 48 my sandwiches. Dad and Auntie June both made me 49 not to tell Mum what had happened 50 she would be worried.
