　　You've just come home, after living abroad for a few years. Since you've been away, has this country changed for the better—or for the worse?

　　If you've just arrived back in the UK after a fortnight's holiday, small changes have probably surprised you—anything from a local greengrocer suddenly being replaced by a mobile­phone shop to someone in your street moving house.

　　So how have things changed to people coming back to Britain after seven, ten or even 15 years living abroad? What changes in society can they see that the rest of us have hardly noticed—or now take for granted? To find out, we asked some people who recently returned.

　　Debi: When we left, Cheltenham, my home town, was a town of white, middle­class families—all very conservative(保守的). The town is now home to many eastern Europeans and lots of Australians, who come here mainly to work in hotels and tourism. There are even several shops only for foreigners.

　　Having been an immigrant (移民) myself, I admire people who go overseas to find a job. Maybe if I lived in an inner city where unemployment was high, I'd think differently, but I believe foreign settlers have improved this country because they're more open­minded and often work harder than the natives.

　　Christine: As we flew home over Britain, both of us remarked how green everything looked. But the differences between the place we'd left behind and the one we returned to were brought sharply into focus as soon as we landed.

　　To see policemen with guns in the airport for the first time was frightening—in Cyprus, they're very relaxed—and I got pulled over by customs officers just for taking a woolen sweater with some metal­made buttons out of my case in the arrivals hall. Everyone seemed to be on guard. Even the airport car­hire firm wanted a credit card rather than cash because they said their vehicles had been used by bank robbers.

　　But anyway, this is still a green, beautiful country. I just wish more people would appreciate what they've got.

　　51．After a short overseas holiday, people tend to ________.

　　A．notice small changes

　　B．expect small changes

　　C．welcome small changes

　　D．exaggerate small changes

　　52．How does Debi look at the foreign settlers?

　　A．Cautiously.

　　53．When arriving at the airport in Britain, Christine was shocked by ________.

　　A．the relaxed policemen

　　B．the messy arrivals hall

　　C．the tight security

　　D．the bank robbers

　　54．Which might be the best title for the passage?

　　A．Life in Britain.

　　B．Back in Britain.

　　C．Britain in Future.

　　D．Britain in Memory.

　　1. The desire to be connected has brought solitude to a ( n) 39 as we've known it.本句是as 引导的原因状语从句，主句中的主语to be connected动词不定式修饰the desire 为后置定语。

　　2. People have become so 40 in the world of networks and connections that one can often be contacted 41 they'd rather not be.

　　在网络连接世界中，人们已经变得如此地可达到以致即使不愿意被联系，也可能经常被联系。So… that …引导的结果状语从句。

　　3.Being reachable might feel like a 47 to those who may not want to be able to be contacted at all times.

　　动名词做主语，后面who may not want to be able to be contacted at all times.是those的后置定语从句。

　　Suppose的宾语从句，在宾语从句中that 引导的表语从句。

　　5. Regardless of anyone's view on the subject, it's hard to imagine what life would be like 55 daily advancements in technology. 尽管在这个问题观点不同。如果没有每日的技术进步，难以想象生活会是什么样。Regardless of 引导的让步状语从句。后面主句中是imagine的宾语从句，what 为连词。
