I was in the eighth grade at the time, and we were having a final test. During the test, the girl sitting next to me whispe

2、red something, but I didnt: understand. So I leaned over her way and found out that she was trying to ask me if I had an extra pen. She showed me that: hers was out of ink and would not write. I happened to have an extra one, so I took it out of my pocket and put it on her desk.Later, after the test

3、 papers had been turned in, the teacher asked me to stay in the room when all the other students were dismissed(解散). As soon as we were alone she began to talk to me about what it meant to grow up；she talked about how important it was to stand on your own two feet and be responsible (负责任) for your o

4、wn acts. For a long time, she talked about honesty and emphasized(强调) the fact that when people do something dishonest, they are really cheating(欺骗) themselves. She made me promise that I would think seriously(认真地) about all the things she had said, and then she told me I could leave. I walked out o

5、f the room wondering why she had chosen to talk to me about all those things.Later on, I found out that she thought I had cheated on the test. When she saw me lean over to talk to the girl next to me, it looked as if I was copying answers from the girls test paper. I tried to explain about the pen,

6、but all she could say was it seemed very strange to her that I hadnt talked of anything about the pen the day she talked to me right after the test. Even if I tried to explain that I was just doing the girl a favor by letting her use my pen, I am sure she continued(继续) to believe that I had cheated

9、ure sitting in a London caf with an English friend. He turns to you and asks if you think that “bird over there is a bunny boiler”. Would you: A) look blank and tell him rabbits cant fly; B) curse the day you ever started studying the terrible English language; or C) give your opinion of whether tha

10、t girl over there is crazy or not?Teachers and students often talk about the “plateau (高原)” of language learning. The metaphor sees every word learned as a step on the journey towards fluency. When youve reached a certain high level, you stop improving and hit the “plateau”. Thousands of English lan

11、guage learners have wandered around for years on this flat, boring plateau. However, few have come up with ideas about how to get off it. If you answered A or B to the above situation then my solution may come as a surprise: You need slang (俚语) to lift you up and away.Of course textbooks wont recomm

12、end this route. Slang is too fast-changing to be recorded in them. And slang is also a dirty word to some teachers, who only like polite English. But English is not only an old-fashioned, polite language, it is also changing quickly. At the end of 2005, two fat new dictionaries “The New Partridge Di

13、ctionary of Slang and Unconventional English” and “Cassells Dictionary of Slang” hit the bookshops. Ignoring Englishs slang is like travelling to a new country and only visiting places recommended in a 10-year-old guidebook. Boring. So where can you get a fix?New books are good slanguage (slang-lang

14、uage) sources. If youre tired of reading, buy a CD. Musicians and rappers like the UKs Artic Monkey and The Streets and the US Kelis and Eminem are slang sensations (引起轰动的人), constantly playing tricks with the Queens English.As the Austrian-British philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstein said, the limits of

15、 your language are the limits of your world. So why not widen your horizons with a little properly used slanguage? From there its just a short step to pushing yourself and your friends off the plateau on all-new adventures.5.The first paragraph is mainly written to _.Ashow British people enjoy chatt

16、ing with friends in a cafBprove that slanguage is difficult to studyCpresent the topic to be discussed in the passageDlet the reader choose a correct answer6.According to the passage, the underlined “bird” in Paragraph 1 probably refers to _.AEnglish languageBa young womanCslanguageDa rabbit7.Which

18、_.Aa key to the “plateau” problemBa dirty word to some teachersCa 10-year-old guidebookDa foreign language(c)Im an American-born Chinese. I wouldnt say Im more American than Chinese or vice versa. My character was equally molded by both cultures. For a long time, I was comfortable with being from tw

19、o cultures. I was fluent in “Chinglish”.However, as I grew up, something unexpected rose, causing a parallel tension between the two corresponding cultures. During Chinese events when I was in China, the host would sometimes make fun of America. My relatives would look at me and laugh, asking me how

20、 I felt. But how could I respond to a question like that? If I said I was uncomfortable, it would just make me seem even more American in their eyes. But I couldnt pretend to laugh either. So, I often just stayed quiet and smiled.Sometimes, Id leave China feeling less Chinese than when I went in.Thi

21、s past summer, on my way back to Rochester, a man at the airport kept asking my father and I where we were from. When I told him I was from the United States, he didnt seem to believe me.He then went on to ask the terrible question, “But like where are you really from, like, where were you born?” An

22、d no matter how specific our answers were, the man still seemed a little doubtful. He then went on to ask us if we knew where Tampa, Florida was and if we knew anything about it. Its moments like these when I realize that sometimes my appearance makes it hard for me to seem fully American.These expe

23、riences made me question if I was more Chinese or American.I felt like I was neither. So, if I wasnt completely one culture or the other, what was I? In China, I would feel more American, while in America, I would feel more Chinese. There was no balance between my two cultures.But this doesnt mean t

24、hat I dont embrace (拥抱) both my identities. I love both my Chinese cultural identity and my American one. I just need to learn to love them together.9.How did the author feel about his identity at the very beginning?ASpecial.BConfident.CConfused.DRidiculous.10.Why did the author feel less Chinese wh
