These days, more and more students in the UK are taking a “gap year”between their graduation from school and their university studies. This means they can take a year off to do something else, before they start their studies.

For most students, spending time in foreign countries is the favorite activity --- and Australia is the favorite place to go.

Many parents, teachers and business people agree that travelling can teach important values.

“After a year of travelling, I felt I’d grown up. I had learnt the importance of relationships with people, on all kinds of levels.”

There are many companies around the world that welcome these students on their projects---helping people in poorer countries, or even in your home country. Although you don’t get paid for your work, this kind of work can teach important skills---decision making and finding answers to problems, for example---that will help many students in a job one day.

Finally, getting some knowledge and experience in an area you hope to study or work in one day will always be very useful.

If several university graduates are applying(申請) for the same job, gar year work experience allows you to say,

“ I’ve already had some experience of this kind of work.” And that can get your job.

科目:初中英語 來源:冀教版英語九年級全冊Unit 9 Communication單元測試 題型:閱讀單選

When people talk to each other,write letters or make phone calls,words of the spoken form or the written form can send any message they want to pass on.

But besides words, do you know any other ways you can use to communicate with people?Rich expressions on your face can be one of them.A smile on your face shows that you are happy.Tears in your eyes tell others that you are sad or excited.Body languages can do the same job.When you put your hand up in class,the teacher knows that you want to say something or you may have some questions to ask. You shake your head from side to side and people know you are saying"no"or refuse others' requirements.When you nod,people will understand that you are saying"yes"or agree to others' opinions or suggestions.

Other forms can also carry different message.For example,a sign at the bus stop gives passengers instructions on which bus to take.The flag language made by soldiers can pass different orders.Sound from the school bell tells the students and the teachers when to begin or end a class.A photographer can use the photos he has taken to tell others about what he thinks of the world around him.Music and films also convey the feelings and ideas of the musicians and the directors.

So next time when you see a piece of art or listen to some music,take it as communication with its creator and try to get the meaning behind it.

1.When people want to use the words to communicate with others,they________.

A. write letters B. cry aloud C. keep silent D. make friends
