37、enagers, and form impressions (印象) of the real American teenagers. American teenagers will go to other countries to learn new languages and have a new understanding of the rest of the world. Here is a two-way student exchange in action. Fred, nineteen, spent last year in Germany with Georges family.

38、 In return, Georges son, Mike, spent a year in Freds home in America. Fred, a lively young man, knew little German when he arrived, but after two months study, the language began to come to him. School was completely different from what he had expected -much harder. Students rose respectfully (尊敬地)

39、when the teacher entered the room. They took fourteen subjects instead of the six that are usual in the United States. There were almost no outside activities. Family life, too, was different.

45、izens.CAmerican schools were not as good as German schools.DThe easy life in the American school was more helpful to students.E17、Some time ago I discovered that one of my chairs had a broken leg. I didnt think there would be any difficulty in getting it repaired, as there are a lot of antique (古董)

46、shops near my home. So I left home one morning carrying the chair with me. I went into the first shop expecting a friendly reception(接待). I was quite wrong. The man wouldnt even look at my chair.The second shop, though slightly more polite, was just the same, and the third and the fourth-so I decide

Then, suddenlythe penny dropped.“I know what you want. You want me to repair your chair.” “Youre right,” I said. “And what would y

50、ou have done if I had walked in and said, Would you repair this chair for me?” “I wouldnt have agreed to do it,” he said. “We dont do repairs, not enough money in it and too much trouble. But III repair this for you. Shall we say for five pounds?” He was a very nice man and was greatly amused by the
