It also helps to improve the visitor’s language ability,” said a teacher during a school meeting last term. “Students who wish to learn more about foreign cultures or to get foreign experience should join this kind of holiday. I am sure you won’t be disappointed.”After this special meeting, I always thought about this kind of holiday. Last month, I had a chance at last to go on such a holiday with some of my schoolmates and we went to London, a place where I had wanted to go since years ago.As we were still young, we had a group leader who planned things for us and looked after us. After we got to London, we went to stay with different families. I was lucky that my host family was a white couple who had a daughter about my age. They treated me as a daughter of their family during my stay there. They were interested in me and I learnt a lot of things from them, too.The holiday was filled with activities every day. After breakfast, a local teacher would come to take us in his car. Then we would have classes or go on a sight-seeing trip to different places of interest like the Big Ben, the London Bridge, and the Buckingham Palace. We would go back to our own homes after the activities.The holiday was a valuable experience for me. I enjoyed every minute of it. Yet, time really flew fast. Three weeks later, we had to leave “home” for Hong Kong.51．In the “homestay” program, a visitor can ________.A．learn more about holidays B．learn about lifeC．improve his language ability D．take part in foreign meetings52．The writer had wanted to visit London since ________A．last month B．years agoC．the special meeting D．her stay abroad53．The group leader should ________.A．make plans for the family B．take care of the studentsC．stay with different families D．rent rooms to the students54．The writer’s host family ________.A．was very kind to her B．went sight-seeing with herC．had two white daughters D．was interested in her activities55．From the passage, we know that the writer ________ in London.A．wished to stay a little longer B．spent three weeks in her homeC．had classes in many interesting places D．helped the teacher take the students in a carB "Everything happens for the best, " my mother said whenever I faced disappointment. "If you carry on, one day something good will happen." So I think my mother is the most beautiful mother in the world. Mother was right, as I discovered after graduating from college in 1932. I had decided to try for a job in radio, then work my way up to a sports announcer. I drove a car to Chicago and knocked on the door of every station. But I was turned down every time.In one studio, a kind lady told me that big stations couldn't risk hiring an inexperienced person. "Go out in the countryside and find a small station that'll give you a chance, " she said. I went back home to Dixon, Illinois. While there were no radio-announcing jobs in Dixon, my father said Montgomery Ward had opened a store and wanted a local athlete（运动员）to manage its sports department. Since Dixon was where I had played high school football, I applied（申请）. The job sounded just right for me. But I wasn't hired.My disappointment must have shown. "Everything happens for the best." Mom reminded me. Dad offered me the car to hunt a job. I tried WOC Radio in Davenport, Iowa. The program director, a wonderful Scotsman named Peter MacArthur, told me they had already hired an announcer. As I left his office, I was frustrated（挫折）. I asked aloud, "How can a fellow get to be a sports announcer if he can't get a job in a radio station? "I was waiting for the elevator when I heard MacArthur calling, "What was that you said about sports? Do you know anything about football? " Then he stood me before a microphone and asked me to broadcast an imaginary game.On my way home, I thought of my mother's words "If you carry on, one day something good will happen."56．What does the underlined word "turned down" mean in Chinese?A．received B．refused C．slowed down D．shut57．Why couldn't the writer find a job at big radio stations?A．Because he was too young.
