Question

【題目】

Growing up in the Chinese community in Vancouver, Canada, I had full time to experience both Canadian and Chinese culture during my childhood.

In my community, many traditions and cultural traits brought by Chinese immigrants（移民）remain alive. For example, interactions (互動) between Chinese neighbors: People greet each other warmly and sometimes stop for a chat. Families also stay mostly the same after crossing the ocean. Elderly members still live with their children instead of in care homes.

Another similarity is that many of us celebrate traditional Chinese holidays, such as Spring festival. Although it's in a different country, the holidays are still commemorated with the same foods, entertainment ( 娛樂活動 ) and values as they are in China. My family makes sure to watch the Spring Festival Gala each year, for example.

While many ways of Chinese culture truly remain in Vancouver, there are also certain ways that the Chinese and Canadian cultures have mixed to create something new and special. Many children of Chinese immigrants, like myself, study in English at school and speak Chinese at home, leading to communication without any trouble in both languages. Chinese communities also celebrate Canadian holidays, like Halloween, which are not often celebrated in China.

Canadian culture has even taken on some Chinese foods and language. Chinese dishes are very popular throughout Canada, many people are very interested in trying them. More and more non-Chinese Canadians are learning the language in order to enjoy Chinese holiday celebrations and communicate with their Chinese of the same age.

As someone who grew up Chinese Canadian, I'm very proud of my special background and how it has made me the person I am today.

文章大意：文章講的是中國移民到加拿大帶的許多傳統(tǒng)和文化依然存在，使中國文化融入到了加拿大。

【1】細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第二段第一、二行In my community, many traditions and cultural traits brought by Chinese immigrants（移民）remain alive“在我的社區(qū)里，中國移民帶來的許多傳統(tǒng)和文化特征依然存在”，故選C。

【2】詞句猜測題。根據(jù)文章第三段第二行劃線單詞前面的the holidays“節(jié)日”和后面的with the same foods“用同樣的食物”可推知commemorated是慶祝的意思，made制作；started開始；described描述；celebrated慶祝，故選D。

【3】推測題。根據(jù)文章倒數(shù)第二段第一行Canadian culture has even taken on some Chinese foods and language“加拿大文化甚至還帶有一些中國食物和語言�！笨芍�，A說法是正確的；根據(jù)文章第二段第二、三行People greet each other warmly and sometimes stop for a chat.“人們互相熱情地打招呼，有時停下來聊聊天�！笨芍�， B說法是錯誤的；根據(jù)文章第二段第二、三、四行Many children ……Canadian holidays“許多中國移民的孩子，像我一樣，在學校學英語，在家里說漢語，導致兩種語言的交流沒有任何困難�！笨芍�C說法是錯誤的；根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段第二、三、四行More and more non-Chinese Canadians are …… the same age“越來越多的非華裔加拿大人為了享受中國的節(jié)日慶典，與同齡華人交流，正在學習這門語言�！笨芍�，D說法是錯誤的，故選A。

閱讀理解題中的細節(jié)理解題，首先找出問句中的關(guān)鍵詞，然后定位到文章具體位置，然后選出正確答案即可。

例如題目1中，關(guān)鍵詞是Chinese immigrants in the writer's community，可定位到文章第二段第一、二行In my community, many traditions and cultural traits brought by Chinese immigrants（移民）remain alive“在我的社區(qū)里，中國移民帶來的許多傳統(tǒng)和文化特征依然存在”，故選C。
