【題目】 Ladies and Gentlemen, thank you. Well, ni-hao. (Laughter) It is such a pleasure and an honor to be here with all of you at this great university, so thank you so much for having me. I’m here today because I know that our future depends on connections like these among young people like you across the world.

That’s why when my husband and I travel abroad, we don’t just visit palaces and parliaments (國會) and meet with heads of countries. We also come to schools like this one to meet with students like you, because we believe that relationships between countries aren’t just about relationships between governments or leaders — they’re about relationships between people, particularly young people. So we view study abroad programs not just as an educational chance for students, but also as an active part of America’s foreign policy (政策).

Through the wonders of modern technology (科技), our world is more connected than ever before. Ideas can cross different countries with the click of a mouse. Companies can do business and compete with companies across the world. And we can text, email, skype with people in the world.

So studying abroad isn’t just a fun way to spend a time of learning; it is quickly becoming the key to success in our times. Because getting ahead in today’s workplaces isn’t just about getting good grades or test scores in school, which are important. It’s also about having real experience with the world beyond (超出) your borders—experience with languages, cultures and societies very different from your own. Or, as the Chinese saying goes: “It is better to travel ten thousand miles than to read ten thousand books.”

A. In a university.B. In the Parliament Hall.

【題目】 "What! You, too? I thought I was the only one." Have you ever said this to someone? If so, you may have ended up becoming friends with this person.

It seems that similarity often helps from friendships. The Greek philosopher (哲學家) Aristotle once said, "Some define (下定義) it (friendship) as a matter of similarity; they say that we love those who are like ourselves."

Now, there is some science behind this idea. Scientists from University of California said friends have similar brains, Scientific America reported.

The scientists invited 42 university students to take part in an experiment. Each student watched the same set of videos, which included a comedy, a debate (討論) and a soccer match. At the same time, scientists scanned(掃描) their brains and recorded their brain activity.

Similar parts of their brains became active while watching the videos, especially parts that are connected with motivation (動力), learning and memory. According to their scans, friends who watched the same videos parts reacted in similar ways. However, people who weren't friends has different reactions to the same video parts.

Having close friends whose brain react like ours may be useful because it makes one's own value, opinions, and interests stronger, lead scientist Carolyn Parkinson told Business Insider.

But brain similarity is not the only thing that can result in friendship. Scientists from the University of Leipzig, Germany, found that friendship is also based on how physically close you are to someone. They did an experiment with first-year college students who met in class for the first time. Is this experiment, students who sat in neighboring seats were more likely to become friends.

1What does "this idea " in Paragraph 3 refer to ?

A. Many friendships start with small chatsB. Friends try to develop similarities between themselves.

C. People with similarities may become friendsD. We like those who like us first.

2What did the scans of the students' brain show?

A. They had watched the same video parts

B. Friends had similar reactions to the same video parts

C. Watching videos improves one's memory

D. It's good to have friends who react similarly

3According to the story, what else may help build friendship?

A. Being fun and helpfulB. Studying at the same college

C. Having similar appearanceD. Being physically close
