Answer the questions（根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容回答下列問題）

Instead of studying abroad during college, more and more Chinese teenagers have chosen to do so as early as in high school. Students from China make up about 42 percent of the international students at high schools in the US, according to the latest study by the Institute of International Education. So, what is the main attraction for Chinese high school students to study abroad? What is overseas life like? We interviewed several students. Have a look!

Pan. 15. Moreau Catholic High School in San Francisco, California, US

In the future, I want to go to college in the US. Studying in high school here will help me get used to college life in the future. Also, I want to improve my English. Studying here is not easy. Instead of exams like in China, we have more projects in class. For example, we have to make a PPT about a historical figure and then design a creative item for that person, such as a painting.

Zhao. 15. Unionville High School in Toronto, Canada

For me, experience matters. It’s good to have the experience of living in another country. Unlike other international students, my parents accompanied me, which makes my life here much easier.

In Canada, I have more time to develop my interests. I can choose classes I like. However, taking the entrance examinations to high school and college at home would be great. It’s a shame that I have no chance to do that.

Zheng. 14. Walsh Jesuit High School in Cleveland, Ohio, US

I want to try different cultures and education styles. Two years ago, visited some famous universities in Boston, such as Harvard and MIT. The academic atmosphere(學術(shù)氛圍) deeply impressed me. Every student seems to spare no effort on academics. I saw students doing morning exercise everywhere and I watched a football game. I found that school life in the US was colourful. So I decided to study in the US.

1.How many international students in American high schools are from China?

________________________________________________________________________

2.Why does Pan choose to study in the high school in the US?

3.According to Zhao, what is a shame for her?

Choose the best answer (根據(jù)文章內(nèi)容，選擇最恰當?shù)拇鸢?

Traditionally, the President is the highest-pad public employee. A salary of $ 400,000, along with other benefits, is paid to the President annually. But President Obama’s income for 2008 was far more than that, according to the White House.

The White House recently published the tax returns (納稅申報單)of Obama and Vice –president Joe Biden. Tax returns are reports of tax that a person has to pay. They often include income information used to calculate the tax. In the US, people whose incomes are over a certain amount have to file tax returns(納稅申報)every year. The tax returns of government officials are open to the public. This transparency helps to prevent corruption(腐敗)。

From Obama’s tax returns , we can see that the President and first lady President’s two books Dreams From My Father and The Audacity of Hope(《無畏的夢想》). The two books, published in 1995 and 2006,are very popular and have been on the bestseller(暢銷書)list for a long time.

The Obama’s income is down from 2007,when they made ＄4.2 million. However, that is still far more than former US President George Bush earned, who reported a total of ＄719,274 for his final year. The Obamas’ income also greatly exceeded(超出)that of Biden, who reported a family income of ＄2269,256.That’s about a tenth of what the Obamas earned. As Vice-president, Biden earns a salary of ＄220,000.US families earn an average income of about ＄50,000.

The Obama’s tax returns also show that together, the President and his wife paid about ＄933,000 in taxes. They gave $172,050 —nearly 6.5 percent of their earnings —to different charity groups. In the US, if a person gives his money to churches and non-profit(非盈利)organizations, the law reduces his or her taxes. This is one reason why rich people in the US like to give money to charity.

1._______had the highest income in 2008.

A.Obama B.Biden C.Bush D.George

2.How much did Obama and his wife earn in 2008?

A.$400,000 B.$2,660,000 C.$4,200,000 D.$719,274

3.In the US, which people have to file tax returns?

A.Everybody

B.Wealthy people

C.Government officials

D.People whose incomes are over a certain amount.

4.The Obamas have given_______ percent of their earnings to charity.

A.10 B.6.5 C.9.7 D.4.3

5.Why should the tax returns of government officials be open to the public?.

A.Because it can help to prevent corruption

B.Because it can make government officials well-known to the public.

C.Because it can help government officials to get more money.

D.Because the government wants them to pay more taxes to the public.

6.According to the law, if a rich man gives his money to charity,_______.

A.he will be praised by the people

B.he will pay fewer taxes

C.he will be free of taxes

D.he will get some extra money from the government.
