When I first came to the USA, I made friends with a neighbor who used to live only two blocks away from my street. We used to visit each other and go out together sometimes. This friend taught me a lot about American 34 , but in some cases I had to learn the hard way, because we didn’t have enough time together for me to learn all about American culture from him.

One day, this friend invited me to a party. It wasn’t a(n) 35 party, only some kind of informal get-together. Since it was summer, we had a picnic, 36 most of his American friends and relatives were known to me, but there were others I had never met before.

It was the most 37 party for me when I noticed that everybody was wearing jeans and simple T-shirts for the day, 38 I arrived in proper dress with my shoes and hair all fixed for a fancy party. It was hard to explain my shame to the other 39 . When one of them turned around and said, “What nice clothes! What’s the occasion（场合）?” I felt my 40 burning hot. I didn't answer at all. If she knew how bad I already felt, she wouldn't have come near me. But she did. Maybe she didn't ask on purpose to make me feel 41 or uncomfortable, but my reaction had to do with the way I already felt. I could have told her I had to go to another party afterward, but I did not want to continue the 42 .

Many times I thought of going home and 43 but I knew they would 44 . It would be even worse for me because I knew they would quickly think that I felt out of 45 . So I wanted to pretend that I was OK.

四、阅读理解(共20小题; 每小题1.5分，满分30分)

第一节：阅读下面短文，从每题给出的A、B、C、D四个答案中，选出最佳选项，并标在试卷的相应位置。

A

I had never given a thought to working on a newspaper. But when my husband decided to start one in our small rocky mountain town, I went along with the idea. I didn’t know how to interview anyone, take interesting photos, or even put a newspaper article together. So I took my camera and just started carrying it with me everywhere.

One Saturday morning, I went on a children’s hayride to get some shots of the local kids. I arrived early, so I could talk to the adults in charge, I needed to get some information to go with any picture I took.

After the kids were seated on the hay(干草), I had plenty of pictures of their smiling faces. I just stopped to chat with a lady who had her horse with her. She planned to ride alongside the wagon and keep an eye on things.

While I chatted with her, her horse turned to fully face me and gave me a big horse smile. He opened his mouth wide, showing all of his teeth. We all laughed and I asked the lady to make him do it again so I could take a picture. She said she hadn’t made him do it the first time and didn’t know how to get him smile again.

I stepped back, positioned my camera, and said to the horse, “Smile again for the camera,” and he did! He looked right at the camera and gave me a huge horse smile. In fact, I got two shots of him and he was willing to keep smiling at the camera.

Later on, we published the pictures of the kids and their hayride in the paper but the picture of the horse got the most attention. I have kept that picture in my photo album to this day. And proudly show it off every chance I get.

After that, I was always ready to go and get the story. I had learned how exciting and rewarding interviews and news photography could be. You may think you know your community pretty well. But wonderful surprises are waiting around you.

49. Why did the writer begin to be a reporter?

A. She loved taking photos.

B. Her husband decided
