used to speaking their native language, so immigrants(移民) are having many problems between the first generation and the second generation because they dont have the same native language. a1so, the second generation is losing their identity. especially in america, there are many immigrants that came from different countries to succeed in the states. because they suffer in lots of areas such as getting a job and trying to speak english, they want their children to speak english, not only at school, but also at home in order to be more successful. for example, my aunt, who has been living in chicago for fifteen years, has three children and they were all born in the states. the eighteen-year-old daughter speaks english as a native language and she speaks korean very well too. she has no problem talking with her parents, but she still doesnt understand korean jokes, and thery are sometimes misunderstandings. the second daughter is fourteen years old, and she doesnt want to speak korean. my aunt often gets upset with her because she is very americanized and they cannot understand each other. even when my aunt punishes her, this daughter does not understand what my aunt is talking about.my aunt taught korean to her children not in order to help them succeed in the u. s.; she did so, hopefully, to help them establish a korean identity(身份). though the second generation is born in the new country, they often get confused about their identity because they look different from others, and also, if they visit their parents country, they will probably feel different from other people there, too.we must realize that language is important and valuable for many reasons. immigrants should make an effort not to be ignored by their children and to make their children understand their heritage(传统) by teaching them the parents language. this is very important, not only for the harmony(和谐) of the family, but also in helping the second generation establish their identity.56. what do you think this article is about? a. learning a second language. b. immigrants who become homesick in the u. s. c. language and its effect on the identity of immigrants. d. schools attended by immigrants to the u. s. 57. which of the following is not true about the 18 year old daughter?a. she was born in the u. s. b. she speaks only english very well but her korean is poor.c. she gets along better with her parents. d. she doesnt understand korean jokes well.58. to whom does the mother speak korean? a. her oldest daughter only. b. all of her children. c. her two daughters only. d. only to her son.59. why did the authors aunt try to teach her children to speak korean? a. to help them succeed in the u. s. b. to help them find a good job. c. to help them establish a korean identity. d. to help her improve her korean language skills.bthe first robots were invented in the 1920s. robots have appeared in hollywood films such as robocop and the terminator. the robots in these films are stronger, faster and more intelligent than people. in real life, robots are mainly used in factories. they do many different jobs. usually these jobs are too dangerous, difficult or boring for humans. robots also help disabled people and people who cannot look after themselves. for example, scientists are making a robot to help blind people. nowadays many blind people have a dog to help them. this dog is called a guide dog. in the future, robot dogs might take the place of these guide dogs. one robot guide dog is called meldog. it has wheels. it usually “walks” in front of its owner. it is very clever. it knows the speed of its owners walk. meldog talks to its owner by radio. the owner wears a special belt. this belt sends instructions to the owner from meldog such as “stop here”, “turn left” and “turn right”. in the united states, another type of robot helps disabled workers. this robot, called kilroy, helps disabled computer operators. the robot hears the sound of its owners voice. it follows instructions such as “turn the page” and “make a cup of coffee”. this robot will bring its owner tissue paper when he or she sneezes! robots are also used in american hospitals. they can do simple jobs. for example, they shave patients and brush their teeth and take meals from the kitchen to the patients rooms. they never get lost because they have a map of the hospital in their computer memory.60. some robots in real life are .a. dangerous b. boring c. film stars d. factory workers61. some disabled people need robots to . a. make robots b. become scientists c. look after themselves d. do dangerous jobs62. meldog is a .a. blind dog b. robot scientist c. real dog d. robot guide dog63. the robots used in american hospitals can do the following except . a.

get up early. without the danger of being fired, there just hasnt been a lot of motivation(动机) to get out of bed. ive quickly learned that getting up is the key to success and better yet waking up early is really just a habit. the most important thing to keep in mind is that you must have strong reasons to get out of bed. motivation is the only thing keeping us from lying in bed all day. writing down all the big and important things youll do the next day can give you an extra push in your goal to wake up early and quickly. dont read in bed. spending as little time as possible in bed will actually help your body realize that the bed is for sleeping, and not for lying awake for hours. the goal of reading in bed is just to help you fall asleep within 10 minutes. stress is one of the main causes of poor sleep. relax yourself before getting into bed. try controlled breathing exercises or yoga to lower your stress level. these are just a few ways you can use to wake up earlier. finding the best way is the most important, and it requires a little work. the key thing is that waking up should be a pleasant experience. if you can make waking up something you are looking forward to, youre already halfway on your journey toward becoming an early riser.64. what do we know about the author? a. he has a fulltime job outside. b. he likes lying in bed all day. c. he was once fired

was little, her mother always told her that if she didnt master the flying skills, she would go to hell. she was so curious about hell that she always asked others what hell looked like, but no one was sure, because none of them had ever been there. some said hell was a place full of water, and others told her that hell was full of burning fire. however, the bird knew they were lying. she wanted to find out what hell was. when other birds were learning flying skills, she always hid herself and watched them. she thought in this way she could go to hell and see what hell looked like. however, she spent so little time learning flying skills that one day she was caught by a little boy. the little boy gave her to his grandpa in the countryside as a gift. the old man liked her very much. he made a delicate(精美的) cage and put her in it. the bird was very worried because she thought she couldnt find out what hell was like staying in this small cage. however, she couldnt escape. day after day, she just stayed in the cage, watching other birds flying. she lost her freedom and she became sadder and sadder. at last, she became ill. the old man finally opened the cage, but she was too weak to fly. lying on the ground, she thought of the question that she ever asked all the time.“what does hell look like?”“hell is a small welldecorated cage.” before she closed her eyes forever, she
