After living in the United States for quite a long time, I do not think about the cultural differences any more. Last month, my parents came to visit me. Their observations (觀察) on the American lifestyle reminded me that cultural differences between living in China and America are actually everywhere.
When my parents came to America, they praised my house. Everyone had his/her own bedroom; there was a front yard, a backyard and a garage; there were many bathrooms – all convenient and comfortable. However, they were not used to the glass doors at the first floor. My mom, from southern China, was worried that someone would break open the glass doors. Though I said that nobody would do that, she was still worried about it.
When I brought them to eat in fast food restaurants, whether it was in McDonald’s or KFC, they saw that refilling drinks was for free. This concept (觀念) of free refill was so new to them.
A Chinese friend told me a story. He and his American girlfriend ate at a restaurant. His girlfriend wanted to drink English tea. He was curious, so he tried some and found that it didn’t taste bad with milk and sugar in it. Adding more water to tea is free of course, so he drank more cups. His girlfriend found it embarrassing and explained to him that what he was doing was not exactly fair. If he wanted to drink more tea, he should buy another cup. My friend thought that Americans could take advantage of the free refills, but only a few of them did that. After staying in America for some time, he changed his habit.
1.We can infer that the writer _____.
A. doesn’t like American culture
B. has got used to her life in America
C. received an American education as a child
D. thinks American and Chinese cultures are the same
2.What made the writer’s parents worried?
A. That someone would break into the house.
B. That someone would be hurt by the glass doors.
C. That they wouldn’t have a bedroom of their own.
D. That they wouldn’t live comfortably in the house.
3.When eating at McDonald’s for the first time in America, the writer’s parents were probably surprised that _____.
A. there were so many choices
B. the prices for food were so low
C. they could refill drinks for free
D. they could get extra food for free
4.The American girl mentioned in the last paragraph thought that _____.
A. Americans like taking advantage of other people
B. her boyfriend wouldn’t like traditional English tea
C. drinking too much English tea harmed people’s health
D. her boyfriend shouldn’t take advantage of the free refills

The desire for a better life is sometimes so big that it makes people leave their countries and their families and work in other countries. They know that they will have to face difficult moments, that they won't be able to communicate with the persons around them, and that they have to work in illegal conditions to get the money they need for their families, but they all take these chances and they hope they will succeed.
On the other hand, there are people who immigrate (移民) just for the sake of the people they love. They leave their families to make other families with the people they love. Women go to meet their men who have chosen other countries to start a new life, even if they miss their families and friends. Maybe they don't have a place to work but they are able to wait to see what destiny (命運) has for them.
There are also the cases of the people who are forced to leave their countries because of a war which threatens their lives. They'd rather start from the very beginning again than risk putting their lives in danger.
When well-developed countries see that their homeland is being "invaded" by lots of immigrants, they set new laws that make immigration harder. As a result of this, many illegal immigrants cross the borders and are eager to work, although they are paid only half the amount of money native workers receive for the same kind of job.
The opinions of the local people are varied and they range from total refusal to complete acceptance. Immigrants in countries which have large communities of them are fighting for the recognition of their social rights and for equal treatment. Many immigrants have managed to be fully accepted by the communities where they live and have managed to change the opinions of the local people about them.
1.Which of the following reasons for immigration is NOT mentioned in the passage?
A. Escaping from a war.
B. Being reunited with the beloved people.
C. Seeking a better life
D. Studying a foreign language
2.What's the usual response to immigrants in well-developed countries?
A. To accept them.
B. To refuse them.
C. To put limitations on immigration.
D. To encourage them.
3.Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?
A. Some immigrants are still fighting for their rights now.
B. Immigrants are never accepted no matter how hard they try.
C. Native people usually earn more money than illegal immigrants.
D. The local people have different attitudes toward immigrants.
4.The passage implies that _____.
A. many people go to other countries with great determination
B. illegal immigrants cause great damage to developed countries
C. stricter laws should be set to prevent immigration
D. culture shock causes great anxiety in some immigrants
