Here is a 2-way student exchange. Fred, 19 , spent last year in Germany with George’s family. In turn, George’s son Mike spent a year in Fred’s home in America.
Fred knew little German when he arrived. But after 2 months of studying, the language became easy for him. School was very different from what he had looked forward to and it was much harder. Students stood up politely when the teacher came into the room. They took 14 subjects while American students usually took 6 in the US.
Family life, too, was different. The father’s word was the law(法律) . All the children had to do their activities with their family. Fred also missed having a car. In Germany, you should walk to go out to have a good time.
At the same time, in America, Mike was forming his own ideas. He says,’ American schools are too easy for our level but I have to say that I like it a lot in Germany , we do nothing except study. Here we take part in many other activities.

本文講的是美國(guó)學(xué)校生活與德國(guó)學(xué)校生活的不同。
1. stand 根據(jù)Students stood up politely when the teacher came into the room可知,當(dāng)老師進(jìn)教室后學(xué)生要有禮貌地站起來(lái)。本句用的是have to,后面接原形,故用stand。
2. teachers 學(xué)生有禮貌站起來(lái)是表達(dá)對(duì)老師的尊敬,故為teachers。
3. Family 根據(jù)下面的Family life, too可知講的是家庭生活。
4. fathers 下面講到The father’s word was the law(父親的話就是法律),說(shuō)明他們以必須聽(tīng)從他們父親的,故為fathers。
5. subjects 根據(jù)They took 14 subjects while American students usually took 6 in the US可知此處講的是學(xué)?颇康牟煌,故為subjects。
6. difficult 表格寫到美國(guó)學(xué)生的科目are very easy,從but可知是轉(zhuǎn)折,故德國(guó)學(xué)生的科目就難一些,填difficult。
7. drive 根據(jù)Fred also missed having a car可知他們?cè)诿绹?guó)是可以開(kāi)車(drive a car)去上學(xué)的,故為drive,前面為情態(tài)動(dòng)詞can后接原形。
8. walk 從In Germany, you should walk to go out to have a good time可知在德國(guó)是步行去外面的,故為walk。
9. many 根據(jù)we take part in many other activities可知,在美國(guó)還有許多其它的活動(dòng),故為many。
10.study 從I have to say that I like it a lot in Germany , we do nothing except study可知在德國(guó)除了德國(guó)什么都不做,換句話說(shuō)他們必須努力學(xué)習(xí),故為study。

Have you been back to the place where your ancestors lived, worked, studied and played?  Robert Qian , a Chinese Canadian, already has.Now in China, he has found that his family is like a tall tree with long roots.
Robert is just one young overseas Chinese who has come to visit his ancestors’ homeland, as part of the In Search of Roots summer camp program. The program is organized by the local government of Guangdong Province. This program started in 1980, and so far has brought thousands of overseas Chinese students to China to look for their families’ roots. The young people are usually between 16 and 25 years old. (1) Most, like Robert, can hardly speak any Chinese and have never been to  China before.
The students mainly visit parts of Guangdong Province in southern China. During the two-week camp, they study Chinese culture, see changes that have happened in that area, and visit interesting sights. (2) Going to their ancestors’ village is often the most exciting part of the trip. The students feel that they are part of the village, and experience village life. They drink from the village well, go for walks through the countryside, and watch the villagers do their daily activities.
Cathy Qian, a young American student, had this to say, “ Thanks to In Search of Roots, I am beginning to understand my Chinese roots and who I am. It has been a great trip, and I have so many memories of China to take with me .”
The program leaders believe strongly in the program and say that the purpose of it is to give young overseas Chinese the chance to learn more about themselves. “I’ve really enjoyed the trip so far,” says Robert.“This has been a big step for me, and I’m looking forward to finding out more about my roots during my time here.   ”
