    Summer Cultural Exploration in France

             The Summer Cultural Exploration program in Amboise, France, provides students with the opportunity to study French in a friendly historic atmosphere while experiencing a taste of French culture.

             Amboise

             Amboise is a charming small town on the Loire River in central France. The royal Amboise castle was the preferred residence of Charles VIII, who built it in the 15th century. With a rich history and beautiful natural scenes, Amboise is the ideal environment for students to study French.

             Learn

             French courses take place every morning, Monday through Friday, for four hours per day in a historic 19th-century building in the center of Amboise. Students will be given an exam upon arrival to make sure that they attend a language class of the appropriate level. An interactive teaching approach is stressed.

             Experience

             There is a good balance between planned activities and free time throughout the four-week program. Two to three days per week, organized activities are offered such as: lecture on topics in French history, literature, art and cinema, showing of French films, and a visit to Leonardo da Vinci’s home at the Clos Luce.

             Travel

             Also, students will explore France through the following guided trips.

             ●Chambord, Cheverny and Blois —Explore two of the area’s famous castles. Chambord, the largest of the Loire castle, was built by the great Renaissance king, France I. Chevernby castle was built in 1630. Visit the old town of Blois, a favorite residence of French royalty.

             ●Villandry and Sache — One of the last Renaissance castles to be built along the Loire, Villandry, is also known for its flower and vegetable gardens. The lovely old castle of Sache was a best-loved house of the great 19th-century writer Honore de Balzac.

             ●Paris — Discover the City of Light, famous for its fashion, food and art during a journey to Paris! Walk along the banks of the Seine River, visit Notre Dame Cathedral and discover some of the city’s famous museums and including the Louvre.

             Housing

             Students stay with carefully-selected host families. Ability to remain open-minded and tolerance of cultural differences are required. There is an 11 pm curfew（熄灯时间）for this program.

    1.When a student gets to Amboise, he or she will first _______.

         Not all awards are as noble as the Nobel Prize. Even though most countries have a system for recognizing,
    honoring and rewarding people who have done something good in their countries, there are now hundreds of
    awards and awards ceremonies for all kinds of things.
         The Oscars are probably the most famous, a time for the (mostly) American film industry to tell itself how
    good it is, an annual opportunity for lots of big stars to give each other awards and make tearful speeches. But
    it's not only films-now there are also Grammies, Brits, the Mercury Prize and the MTV and Q awards for music.
    In Britain, a writer who wins the Booker prize can expect to see their difficult, literary novel hit the bestseller lists
    and compete with the "Da Vinci Code" for popularity. The Turner Prize is an award for a British contemporary
    artist-each year it causes controversy (争论) by apparently giving lots of money to artists who do things like
    display their beds, put animals in glass cases or-this year-build a garden shed.
         Shakespeare never won a prize, nor did Leonardo da Vinci or Adam Smith or Charles Dickens. It would be
    possible to say, however, that in the past, scientists and artists could win "patronage" from rich people-a king
    or a lord would give the artist or scientist money to have them paint their palaces or help them develop new
    ways of making money. With the change in social systems across the world, this no longer happens. A lot of
    scientific research is now either funded by the state or by private companies. Perhaps awards ceremonies are
    just the most recent face of this process. However, there is more to it than that. When a film wins an Oscar,
    many more people will go and see it, or buy the DVD. When a writer wins the Nobel Prize, many more people
    buy their books. When a group wins the MTV awards, the ceremony is seen by hundreds of thousands of
    people across the world. The group sells lots more records.
         Most awards ceremonies are now sponsored by big organizations or companies. This means that it is not
    only the person who wins the award who benefits-but also the sponsors. The MTV awards, for example, are
    great for publicizing not only music, but also MTV itself! On the surface, it seems to be a "win-win" situation,
    with everyone being happy, but let me ask you a question-how far do you think that publicity and marketing are
    winning here, and how much sincere recognition of achievement is taking place?
    1. Which of the following awards often confuses the public by giving a prize to people who do unusual things?
    [     ]
    A. The Turner Prize.
    B. The Booker Prize.
    C. The Mercury Prize.
    D. The Oscars.
    2. From the context of the paragraph we can infer that "patronage" was perhaps _____.
    [     ]
    A an official position in the government
    B the works of ancient scientists and artists
    C. the professional qualification for a post
    D. an old-fashioned form of prize-giving
    3. Which of the following questions does the third paragraph mainly give the answer to?
    [     ]
    A. How does the social system in history develop across the world?
    B. Why can someone win a prize and why not for someone else?
    C. Why have all these awards and awards ceremorues appeared recently?
    D. Why did Shakespeare, Leonardo da Vinci, Adam Smith and Charles Dickens never wm prizes?
    4. At the end of the text: the writer shows concern about whether _____.
    [     ]
    A. people are really being given credit for what they have done
    B. people are happy to do something good for their countries
    C. it is worthwhile to launch.so many awards
    D. so many awards will continue to be given around the world
    5. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the text?
    [     ]
    A. The Oscars are given to (usually) American film stars and directors.
    B. The Booker Prize can help someone who is not usually successful become successful.
    C. When people win awards, they usually become richer and more famous.
    D. The MTV awards publicize the people who win them more than the people who are giving them.
