4.When I began planning to move to Auckland to study,my mother was a little worried about the uncertainty of living in a place that was so different from India,where we lived.She worried particularly about the lack of jobs,the cultural differences and the chance that I would face racism(種族偏見).
Despite these worries,I came to New Zealand in July 2009.I have found the place and people very nice and supportive.Soon after I arrived,I realized the importance of getting a job for my living expenses.
Determined to do this on my own,I spent a whole day going door to door asking for a job.However,I received little response.This became my routine every day after college for a few weeks.
One afternoon,I walked into a building to ask whether there were any job opportunities.People there were very surprised,and advised me not to continue my job search in that manner.As I was about to leave,a clerk in the building,who had been listening to what the others had said,approached me and asked me to wait outside for a while.Fifteen minutes later,he returned.He asked me about my plans and encouraged me to stay confident.Then he offered to take me to Royal Oak to search for a job.
I was a little surprised but had a good feeling about him.He gave me some suggestions on dressing and speaking.I handed out my resumes and went home feeling very satisfied.The following day,I received a call from a store in Royal Oak offering me a job.
It seems that the world always gives back to you when you need it.And this time,it was a complete stranger who turned out to be a real blessing.

B.The author wasn't familiar with local customs.
C.People might look down on the author.

B.had to find a job to cover his living expenses

13.Guide dogs are going to be available for the children who are unable to see normally in the UK for the first time,as the age limit is to be removed.The Guide Dogs for the Blind Association is to begin training dogs to help blind people under the age of 16.
The association says too many youngsters with impaired eyesight are lacking in independence.They have only a limited social life because of their disability.Giving some of them guide dogs at a younger age is intended to help them to widen their range of activities and to improve their sense of self-confidence and independence.Guide dogs for these teenagers will begin to be provided from next year.There has been an experimental project to test the use of guide dogs with younger people.
Charlotte,aged 14,was among the youngest guide dog owners.She had been gradually losing her eyesight since the age of eight,and lost her eyesight completely this year.She has been assisted by a two-year-old guide dog.Charlotte used to have a long stick to help her move around,but having a guide dog allows her much more freedom and makes her feel safer.
However,the association says there is a worryingly patchy supply of services for the young blind people across the UK,and it calls for national standards to be introduced.As with adult blind people,only a small number of them are likely to be considered suitable for a guide dog.Most will continue to rely on extra help and training from education and social services.

29.We can learn from the text that owning guide dogsA.
A.is beneficial to blind children's development
B.may meet with difficulties sometimes
C.became possible in the UK recently
D.is quite universal in the UK
30.According to the text,Charlotte's example proves thatC.
A.the association's opinion is not quite right
B.guide dogs can get along well with disabled people
C.it is necessary to carry out the experimental project
D.youngsters need companions and friends
31.What does the underlined word"patchy"in the last paragraph probably mean?D
A.Endless.      
B.Perfect.
C.Diverse.        
D.Inadequate.
32.What is the main idea of the text?B
A.Blind people need guide dogs'assistance in their daily life.
B.Age limit for the blind to have guide dogs is to be removed.
C.More guide dogs will be trained in the UK.
D.The project of using guide dogs is to begin.
