ABC means American-born Chinese.An ABC is a Chinese,but was born in the United States.Sometimes,people call an ABC a “banana ?person”. A banana is yellow outside and white inside.So,when a person is a banana,he or she is white inside?thinking like a westerner and yellow outside?looking like a Chinese.Do you know why?Usually,ABCs know little about China or the Chinese language.Some of them do not speak Chinese.Also,they are not interested in Chinese politics.?
But if ABC cannot speak Chinese,can we still call them Chinese people?Yes,of course.They are Chinese.They are overseas Chinese.These people may be citizens (公民) of another country like the US,England and Canada,but they have Chinese blood.Their parents,grandparents or ?even? great-grandparents were from of China.They all have black eyes and black hair.But they are not Chinese citizens.They are not people of the People’s Republic of China.For example,we all know the famous scientist C.N.Yang (杨振宁).He got the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1957.Chinese people love him.But he is an American citizens.?
1.“ABC” in this passage means “_____________________________”.?
2.Chinese in Western countries are called “banana persons” because________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________. 3.The underlined (画线的) sentence means “__________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________”. 4.C.N.Yang is mentioned here to show that____________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________. 5.This passage mainly talks about____________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________. 答案：1.American-born Chinese/a Chinese who was born in America 由第一句“ABC means American-born Chinese”可知。?
2.they are white inside and/but yellow outside/they have yellow skin but think like a westerner/they think like a westerner but look like a ?Chinese?/they are white inside,thinking like a westerner and yellow outside,looking like a Chinese ? Tears are the silent language of grief.眼泪是悲哀的无声语言。
由“A banana is yellow outside and white inside. So,when a person is a banana,he or she is white inside?—thinking like a westerner and yellow outside—looking like a Chinese”一句可知。 3.这些人有可能是另一个国家的公民，如美国、英国或加拿大的公民，但他们具有中国血统。4.overseas Chinese are not Chinese citizens but they have Chinese blood/he is an American citizen but he has Chinese blood/he isn’t a Chinese citizen but he had Chinese blood? 5.overseas Chinese/what ABC means? ●Link to test? （模拟链接） Ⅲ.Multiple choice（单项选择）?
