A
Last summer I got a real taste of Swiss life when I spent six weeks with a host family in the Bernese Alps. On arriving in Erlenbach where my host family live,I knew I couldn't have asked for a better setting: it was such a beautiful mountain village.
And I couldn't have asked for a better host family,either.They made me feel like part of their family,rather than a tourist—I joined in my host family's day-to-day activities,whether helping pick berries in the garden or going to friends' houses.I wasn't only traveling around Europe seeing the major sights,but I lost myself in a different culture.
While many Swiss cultures are similar to America's,there are lots of differences,too.For example,most Swiss leave their windows open—without screens—all the time.At first I thought all the bugs（虫子）were going to get in and eat me alive,and wondered why they didn't close the windows and turn on the air conditioner.But then I realized there weren't many bugs and I really enjoyed the fresh air.
Probably my biggest shock was the language.I expected the Swiss to speak German,but they spoke a dialect called Swiss German,which has hardly anything in common with German.At times I was very frustrated（受挫的）because my three years of German did not help,but my bad mood did not last.Anyhow,many people knew English and were extremely willing to speak it.
Signing up for a cultural exchange was probably the biggest risk I ever took,but it was also the most rewarding. When I left,I promised I would return to Erlenbach.There is more to Switzerland than cheese and watches. 21.What the writer liked best about his stay in Switzerland was probably that . A.he made lots of friends in the village
B.he felt a great sense of belonging there D.he played a part in the host family's housework
C.he enjoyed the beautiful scenery of the Alps
22.How did the writer feel at first when he found his host family always kept the windows open?
A.Relaxed. B.Disappointed. C.Excited. D.Worried. 23.Why was the language the writer's biggest shock during his exchange visit? A.Because he had thought that the Swiss spoke German.
B.Because he found his German not good enough for communication.
C.Because the Swiss spoke English so well that he needn't have learned German.
D.Because the locals told him that Swiss German was almost the same as German.

It may appear strange to hear that crops are making headlines.But this is no ordinary produce—these fruits and vegetables have been grown in simulated（模拟的）Martian and lunar soils!
Though the possibility of growing crops in outer space only gained widespread interest after Matt Damon grew potatoes in the movie \be the key to setting up space colonies（殖民地）.
Among the pioneers in this effort is a team led by Wieger Wamelink,a scientist at Netherland's Wageningen University.In 2013,they planted fourteen varieties of plants in simulated Martian and lunar soils.Though the \plants did not bear any produce,they grew better than the \plants,most of which died shortly after being planted.Lack of vapor in the soil,according to the scientists,might have accounted for the failure.
The second experiment began in late 2015.The researchers selected the same crops,while this time they used larger containers and added grass to them.In March 2016,their efforts were rewarded with a variety of produce including the vegetable that kept \
However,the researchers were still not sure if the produce was safe to eat.That's because the Martian and lunar soils contain heavy metals like lead and arsenic,which do not affect plants but are poisonous to humans.
After months of testing,earlier this week,the team finally confirmed that the produce was safe for human consumption.Some of the crops even contained lower levels of heavy metals than plants grown in the \earth soil.
To celebrate the success,the scientists held a dinner party that centered ground the crops.While there is no word on how the food tasted,it sure looks delicious.
24.Scientists are trying out the idea of growing crops in outer space because . A.the movie \B.soils on the Mars and the moon are similar to the earth soil C.it is of great importance to space exploration in the future D.it is a good solution to the world's growing population 25.What change was made in the second experiment? A.The shape of the containers. C.The conditions of the soil.
B.The types of the plants. D.The temperature of the lab.
26.Which of the following might be the best title for the passage?
