The first time I saw Kai, she was sitting in my front yard,hugging my dog Harley.She and her husband Sean had just moved into a small house down the road from us.I think she was drawn to Harley's friendliness, just as he was drawn to hers.From the moment I talked to her,I knew Kai would be a friendly friend. Her smile and good cheer made me feel better just being around her.

It didn't take long before Kai was beloved by everyone in our neighborhood.Children and adults visited her home often.Although she already had four cats, she also adopted （收養(yǎng)）a homeless dog.

When we visited her, she would kindly listen to all of our trouble and then say something so wise that we would leave her home with our hearts singing.Sometimes I would read her my stories and she would always encourage me to keep writing.

All of this time,though,Kai was slowly dying from cancer.But she lived each day with such cheer that I often forgot just how ill she was.Still,she died on a cold winter day with heavy snow falling down.

During the short time we had together,I learned so much from Kai about how to truly live.She taught us so many lessons about kindness,happiness,hope and cheer.

科目：初中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：2019年河南省開(kāi)封市中考一模英語(yǔ)試卷 題型：閱讀單選

There are four basic periods for human beings to pass through when entering and living in another country. This long process helps you deal with culture shock(文化沖擊).

Culture shock begins with the "honeymoon period?”. This is the time when you first arrive in a place where everything about the new culture is strange and exciting. You see new things, hear new sounds and language, eat new kinds of food. This period can last for quite a long time because you feel very happy.

Unluckily, the second period can be more difficult. After you have got used to your new life, you can become very uncomfortable and begin to miss your motherland, your family, your friends, your pets and so on. All the small problems in life seem to be much bigger and more worrying when you face them in a foreign country. This period can be very difficult and lead to moving backwards quickly.

The third period is called the “adjustment (調(diào)整)period”. You begin to realize that things are not so bad in the new country. Your sense of humor usually becomes stronger and you realize you are becoming stronger by learning to take care of yourself in the new place. Things are still difficult, but you are now a survivor.

The fourth period can be called "at ease at last". Now you feel quite comfortable in the new place. You can deal with most problems that you have. You may still have problems, but you know you are strong enough to deal with them. At this time, you may feel a little uncomfortable if you go back to your motherland.

根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容選擇最佳答案,并在答題卡上將該項(xiàng)涂黑。

1.Culture shock usually happens when you_________.

A.get married to a foreigner B.live in a big city
