During my first two weeks at the University of California, Berkeley, I experienced some unexpected, funny, and sometimes embarrassing situations. Allow me to share some with you.
But first, let me give advice to other foreign students who plan to study in the United States. Check the weather before coming! I was very sure that California was sunny all year around so I left all my jackets and sweaters in Paris. It was a huge mistake! It rained almost every day during the first week in Berkeley.
I have to say that I quickly forgot these unlucky events. Life in Berkeley is very pleasant and everything is so easy compared to Paris. For example, in only 24 hours I bought a mobile phone and rent a flat. What’s more, almost all the shops are open on Sunday.
The first thing that surprised me is that students may come late to class. They freely enter and leave the classroom many times during class. In France, students respect the teacher’s lesson, so they are never late and they leave the classroom only at the end of the class.
The local people in California are in general very nice, open and active. However, I am not totally used to their habits yet. Indeed, I was used to shaking my friends’ hands every day in France. During my second day at Berkeley, I shook the hand of one of my classmates whom I had met the day before and he told me “I think we already met!”
I live a great experience at present, and I would just encourage any student to become a member in a program at UC, Berkeley.
【1】The writer comes from ______.
A.Japan B.China C.England D.France
【2】The writer made a huge mistake because ______.
A.he didn’t check the weather before coming
B.the weather in California was changeable
C.he brought a lot of clothes with him
D.he didn’t take a mobile phone
【3】When the writer’s classmate said “I think we already met!”, he meant .
A.they were old friends
B.Americans needn’t shake hands when they meet again
C.he was not used to shaking hands with others
D.the writer might forget about their last meeting
【4】We can learn that ________ according to the passage.
A.California was sunny all year around
B.students in America are never late for class
C.life in Berkeley is enjoyable for the writer
D.people in California are not so friendly
【5】According to the passage, the writer mainly wants to tell us ______.
A.his experience at UC, Berkeley B.the relationship between classmates
C.his advice on studying abroad D.the difference in attending a class

Doctors removed the tumor, but Andrew’s memory was still poor. He was told he would probably never go back to school. Andrew was eager to enter a university, but it seemed that his dream wouldn’t come true.
