Otherwise, the young couple would have driven right into a pit twenty feet wide and thirty feet deep! The man and woman were coming home from a party. They were enjoying th
23、e landscape around Swansea, Wales. Suddenly, they found the front of their car leaning into a huge hole. The car barely hung onto the edge of the pit. It swayed back and forth like the arm of a balance. In their precarious position, the couple knew that each movement they made could be a matter of l
24、ife and death. Slowly, slowly, they edged toward the backseat. Then each opened a back door. And on the count of three, they jumped out together. The accident was so scary that they ran a long way before they calmed down. But later they returned to see what had happened. They found that a big chunk
25、of the road had sunk into the ground! And at the bottom of the pit lay their carroof down and wheels up. Was this mystery of the sunken road ever solved?

26、h the city of Swansea. The tunnels were built so many years ago that no one knows where they end or begin. The tunnels are shaky, like those that ants build in the sand.

29、p is important to human beings. This type of sleep generally occurs four or five times during one night of sleep lasting five minutes to forty minutes for each occurrence. The deeper a persons sleep becomes, the longer the periods of rapid eye movement. There are physical changes in the body to show
30、 that a person has changed from NREM (non-rapid eye movement) to REM sleep. Breathing becomes faster, the heart rate increases, and, as the name implies, the eyes begin to move quickly. Accompanying these physical changes in the body there is a very important characteristic of REM sleep. It is durin

33、s to SleepersPeople are used to speaking their native language, so immigrants are having many problems between the first generation and the second generation because they dont have the same native language. Also, the second generation is losing their identity. Especially in America, there are many i
34、mmigrants 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. Because of this situation, th
35、eir children are losing their ethnic identity. For example, my aunt, who has been living in Chicago for twenty-five 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 probl
36、ems talking with her parents, but she still doesnt understand Korean jokes, and there 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 ot
37、her. Even when my aunt punishes her, this daughter does not understand what my aunt is talking about. The third child is a twelve-year-old son. He speaks English to his parents and my aunt speaks Korean to him as she does to the second daughter. He also has a problem communicating with his parents.
38、My aunt is trying to teach him to speak both languages, but it is very hard for him because he speaks English all day and does not understand why he should learn to speak Korean. We must realize that language is important and valuable for many reasons. Immigrants should make an effort to make their
39、children understand their heritage by teaching them the parents language. This is very important, not only for the harmony of the family, but also in helping the second generation establish their identity.(分数:8.00)(1).What do you think this article is about?(分数:2.00)A.Learning a second language.B.Im
40、migrants who become sick in the US.C.Schools attended by immigrants to the US.D.Language and its effect on the identity of immigrants.(2).To whom does the mother speak Korean?(分数:2.00)A.Her oldest daughter only.B.Her two daughters only.C.All of her children.D.Only to her son.(3).Why did the authors
41、aunt try to teach her children to speak Korean?(分数:2.00)A.To help her improve her Korean language skills.B.To help them establish a Korean identity.C.To help them succeed in the US.D.To help them find a good job.(4).Based on the passage, the phrase “your identity“ means_.(分数:2.00)A.your homeB.your d
42、ignityC.who you areD.where you are from四、Cloze(总题数:2,分数:60.00)23.Part IV ClozeDirections: There are some blanks in the following passages.
