(A)
When 14-year-old Lin Xia from Shanghai first came to London for a student exchange, she felt both excited and nervous. Her host family, the Thompsons, welcomed her warmly. But some things were different.
On her first morning, Mrs Thompson gave her baked beans and toast for breakfast. Xia ate a little because she didn’t really like the salty taste. Later, she asked her roommate Emma, “Do British people eat beans every morning?” Emma laughed. “No! My mum thought you might like Chinese food. She read that people in Shanghai eat beans!” Xia understood Mrs Thompson had mixed up Shanghai’s sweet red beans with British baked beans.
Another difference came during a school project. Xia’s team needed to make a poster about helping the environment. Her British classmates talked loudly about ideas, but Xia kept quiet. In China, her teachers said, “Group harmony (和谐) is the most important. ” Seeing this, her teacher Ms Wilkins said, “Your opinion is valuable, Xia. In Britain, we discuss to find good answers. ” Taking a deep breath, Xia shared her idea about using algae (海藻) to reduce carbon dioxide—something she’d learnt from her scientist father. The team loved it and won the first prize.
By the end of the trip, Xia felt more confident. She even taught the Thompsons to make dumplings. They laughed when Mr Thompson dropped one. “Cultural exchange isn’t about being perfect, ” Xia wrote in her diary. “It’s about listening, adapting, and finding joy in the process. ”
41. Why did Mrs Thompson give Xia baked beans for breakfast?
A. To introduce her British food. B. To give her a Chinese breakfast.

A. Cooked perfectly. B. Understood wrongly.

43. Why did Xia keep quiet during team discussion?
A. She thought their ideas were perfect.
B. Her English was not good enough.
C. She feared breaking group harmony.

44. Which lesson did Xia learn from her experience?
A. Learning and talking help connect cultures.
B. Winning the first prize is important.
C. We must never make mistakes in cultural exchange.
D. People from different cultures can not understand each other.
