She plans to study math and aerospace(航空航天) engineering.But when Dayme first started school, she felt frustrated because she didn't understand different subjects in English. As the daughter of two Cuban immigrants(移民), Dayme didn't learn English until she got to kindergarten. The only thing that made sense(讲得通) to her was math.‎ ‎“Numbers are kind of their own language, so I was like, ‘Oh, I've got this，’” she said. From an early age, she worked harder on her math skills instead. She has taken every math class at Mater Academy and several at Miami Dade College.‎ Math came so naturally to Dayme that she usually didn't have to take notes. She simply paid close attention and understood.‎ She has also encouraged other female(女性的) students to take math and science courses. She read research that shows girls are as interested in math and science as boys in primary school. But when they get to high school, few girls see themselves pursuing careers(追求职业) in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) fields.‎ ‎“The most important thing is to realize that math is just like anything else，” Dayme said. “It is not dependent on your gender(性别) or your ethnicity(种族). Forget about what others think and just go for it.”‎ ‎4．What was the biggest challenge for Dayme when she started school in the US?‎ A．She didn't have money to pay for her studies.‎ B．She couldn't understand courses in English.‎ C．She was not born in the United States.‎ D．She never went to kindergarten.‎ ‎5．What did she make great efforts to learn from an early age?‎ A．English.

A group of Americans who taught English in other countries recently discussed their experiences. They decided that miscommunications were always possible, even over something as simple as “yes” and “no”．‎ On her first day in Micronesia, an island in the Pacific, Lisa thought people weren't paying any attention to her. The day was hot. She went into a store and asked, “Do you have cold drinks？” The woman there didn't say anything. Lisa repeated the question. Still the woman said nothing. She later learned that the ‎ woman had answered her: She had raised her eyebrows (眉毛), which in Micronesia means “yes”．‎ Jan remembered an experience she had in Bulgaria, a country in Europe. She went to a restaurant that was known for its cabbage. She asked the waiter, “Do you have cabbage today？” He nodded his head. Jan waited, but the cabbage never came. In that country, a nod means “no”．‎ Tom had a similar problem when he arrived in India. After explaining something in class, he asked his students if they understood. They answered with many different nods and shakes of the head. He thought some people had not understood, so he explained again. When he asked again, they did the same thing. He soon found out that his students did understand. In India, people nod and shake their heads in different ways depending on where they come from. You have to know where a person is from to understand whether they mean “yes” or “no”．‎ ‎8．What did these Americans teaching English in other countries find?‎ A．They should go abroad for vacations. ‎ B．They needed to learn foreign languages.‎ C．They should often discuss their experiences. ‎ D．They had problems with communications.‎ ‎9．How do people in Micronesia show “yes”？‎ A．By raising eyebrows. B．By shaking heads. ‎ C．By nodding heads. D．By saying “no”．‎ ‎10．Why did Tom misunderstand his class at first?‎ A．Because he didn't know where the students came from.‎ B．Because he didn't explain everything clearly enough.‎ C．Because he did not know much about Indian culture.‎ D．Because some students didn't understand his questions.‎ ‎11．What is the passage mainly about?‎ A．Body language in foreign restaurants.‎ B．The excitement of living in foreign countries.‎ C．Miscommunication in different cultures.‎ D．English teaching in other countries.‎ D 阅读下面短文,根据短文内容,从下面方框中的A-E选项中,选择适当的选项补全短文。‎ Recently, a very simple question became widely spread online: What should China be proud of ? A foreign girl living in China gave a very touching answer. ‎ ‎ Lanlan, whose real name is Negar Kordi, is from Canada.

Some people said that this was unfair. Mr. Taylor explained his decision.
