started tolearn language when we were born.However,people are used tospeaking their native language,so immigrants are having manyproblems between the first generation and the second generationbecause they dont have the same native language.Also,the secondgeneration is losing their identity.Especially in America,there aremany immigrants that came from different countries to succeed inthe States.Because they suffer in lots of areas such as getting a joband trying to speak English,they want their children to speakEnglish,not only at school,but also at home in order to be moresuccessful.Because of this situation,their children are losing theirethnic identity and,even more,they are ignoring their parentswhose English is not very good.I think most immigrants are trying to preserve their native languagein their new country,but this doesnt help very much in getting agood job.My aunt didnt teach Korean to her children in order tohelp them succeed in the US;she did so,hopefully,to help themestablish a Korean identity.Though the second generation is born inthe new country,they often get confused about their identity.Mycousins told me that when they visited Korea a few years ago,theyfelt different from other Koreans.They could even feel it juststrolling around the street because they wore different clothes.We must realize that language is important and valuable for manyreasons.Immigrants should make an effort not to be ignored bytheir children and to make their children understand their heritageby teaching them the parents language.This is important in helpingthe second generation establish their identity.1.Which people are having trouble with language?A.Natives.B.People of the 2nd generation.C.People when born.D.Immigrants.2.Why are children ignoring their parents?A.Children have lost their identity.B.Parents cause children to suffer.C.They speak different languages.D.They have different job levels.3.The authors aunt taught Kor ean.A.so

not similar to people in KoreaB.they could not get a job in AmericaC.it was all right to look and feel differentD.it was important to keep their identity5.A proper title for this passage is.A.The Identity of the Second GenerationB.Korean Problems in AmericaC.Learning a New Language in the USD.Keeping Ybur Culture in a New LandQuestions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage ordialog.Two similar-sounding English words caused trouble for a man whowanted to fly from Los Angeles to Oakland,California.His problemsbegan at the airport in Los Angeles.He thought he heard his flightannounced,so he walked to the gate,showed his ticket,and got onthe plane.After flying for twenty minutes,the man began to worry.Oakland was north of Los Angeles,but the plane seemed to beheading west,and when he looked out his window all he could seewas ocean.,Is this plane going to Oakland?he asked the flightattendant（服务员）.The flight attendant was shocked.No,shesaid.Were going to Auckland-Auckland,New Zealand.1English is not the only language with similar-sounding words.Otherlanguages,too,have words that can cause mistakes,especially forforeigners.Auckland and Oakland.When similar-sounding words cause amistake,probably the best thing to do is just laugh and learn fromit.Of course,sometimes its hard to laugh.The man who traveled toAuckland instead of Oakland didnt feel like laughing.But even thatmistake turned out all right in the end.The airline（航空公司）paidfor the mans hotel room and meals in New Zealand and for his flightback to California.Oh well,the man later said,I always wanted tosee New Zealand.6.The main topic of this passage is.A.mistakes made by people in airportsB.troubles experienced by foreigners in a new countryC.difficulties had by people when

have a sharp earB.to learn a good pronunciationC.to speak clearly and slowlyD.to laugh and learn from itQuestions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage ordialog.Yinlan looked at the people sitting around the table and smiled withsatisfaction.Everyone in her family was there-her children,hergrandchildren,and her new great-grandson,just one month old.Her whole family had come to celebrate the Harvest Moon Festival（节日）.Two days after the Harvest Moon Festival,Yinlan died peacefully inher sleep.Her family was sad but at the same time grateful.Theyfelt happy that they had been able to celebrate the Harvest MoonFestival with her one last time.Everyone said it was remarkable thatYinlan had died just two days after the holiday.Actually,the timing of Yinlans death was not remarkable at all.Ftecently sociologists（社会学家）studied the death rate amongelderly Chinese women in California.They discovered that the deathrate drops 35 percent before the Harvest Moon Festival and thenrises 35 percent.Sociologists believe that these changes in deathrate show the minds power over the body.The Harvest MoonFestival,when families gather,is important to elderly Chinesewomen.Apparently some women are able to postpone（推延）theirdeaths so that they can celebrate the festival one last time.The idea that people can postpone the time of their deaths is notnew.Many families tell stories of a relative who held on to life untilafter an important event.The stories people tell,however,are justthat:stories.They are not proof that people can postpone theirdeaths.The sociologists work is important because the sociologistsstudied facts,not stories.The facts一the drop and rise in deathratesprove that people really can postpone their deaths.11.When did Yilan die?A.During the Harvest Moon
