　　[2015·河北省名校联盟质检二]Many thousands of Chinese are studying at schools in the United States. And writer Liel Leibovitz says the students are

　　following an example that began in the eighteen seventies.

　　Mr.

　　Leibovitz and writer Matthew Miller joined forces to tell the story of the students in their book, “Fortunate Sons”.

　　The book says China sent one hundred and twenty boys from 1872 to 1875 to America to learn about developments that could

　　help modernize their country.

　　Mr. Leibovitz got the idea for the book about the boys a few years ago when he was traveling with his wife in China.

　　Mr.

　　Leibovitz learned that Qing government sent a whole delegation (代表团)

　　of boys to learn the ways of the West.

　　The

　　goal was for them to return to China and help their country.

　　The book says the boys received their American training in Massachusetts, New York, New Jersey and Connecticut. It

　　must have been a very good education. Mr. Leibovitz said the first prime minister of the Chinese Republic completed this

　　program. And so did the first engineer to build a large­scale railroad without foreign help. The same was true of the fathers of

　　Chinese education, diplomacy and the Navy.

　　The book­writers had only to open some boxes containing the writings of these men to learn about them. Their notebooks,

　　journals, letters and postcards were in English. Mr. Leibovitz said he was lucky to have so much information from events that

　　took place long ago.

　　The students returned to China after about nine years.

　　They no longer spoke

　　Mandarin (普通话)

　　well

　　enough to answer

　　questions.

　　Police welcomed them home by putting them in jail. The young men were released after about a week. But they were

　　given low­level jobs.

　　Mr.

　　Leibovitz said it took about ten years for them to rise to higher positions.

　　He said their story continues today with large

　　numbers of Chinese studying in the United States.

　　成千上万的中国人在美国学校读书，美国作家Liel Leibovitz和Matthew Miller在他们的书中讲述了中国早期留学生的故事。

　　5．How many exchange children did Qing government send to America mentioned in the book?

　　A．1872.

　　B．1875.

　　C．120.

　　D．210.

　　答案：C'考查细节理解。根据第二段中的“The book says China sent

　　one hundred and twenty boys from 1872 to 1875 to America to

　　learn about developments”可知，书中说，中国派出120名男孩到美国学习。

　　6．The Qing government sent the boys to America because it ________.

　　A．wanted them to help their country

　　B．lost the war

　　C．expected them to affect the culture of the West

　　D．wanted the western countries to help the boys

　　答案：A'考查细节理解。根据第四段的最后一句“The goal was for

　　them to return to China and help their country”可知，清政府派了一批男孩儿去西方学习，目的是让他们学成归国后帮助建设国家。

　　7．Which of the following is not true according to the passage?

　　A．Many thousands of Chinese are studying at schools in America now.

　　B．Some of the boys received their American training in California.

　　C．Police welcomed the boys home by putting them in jail.

　　D．One of the boys became the father of Chinese education.

　　答案：B'考查细节理解。根据第五段的第一句“The book says the boys received their American training in Massachusetts, New York, New Jersey and Connecticut”可知，这些男孩儿并没有在加利福尼亚州接受美国教育，因此B项的说法是错误的。

　　1．modernize vt. 使现代化　

　　2．training n．训练

　　3．complete adj./vt. 完成；完全的；全部的

　　4．event n. 重大活动；事件

　　5．release vt. 释放；发行

　　1．in the eighteen seventies 在19世纪70年代

　　2．return to 回到；归还

　　原文：And so did the first engineer to build a large­scale railroad without foreign help.(不定式作定语修饰序数词)

　　译文：第一位在没有外国人帮助的情况下修建一条大型铁路的工程师亦是如此。

　　仿写：He was the first person in the world to_receive_ two_Nobel_Prizes.

　　他是世上第一位获得两次诺贝尔奖的人。
