Ⅴ.阅读理解
When I was growing up in America，I was ashamed of my mother's Chinese English.Because of her English，she was often treated unfairly.People in department stores，at banks，and at restaurants did not take her seriously，did not give her good service，pretended not to understand her，or even acted as if they did not hear her.
My mother has long realized the limitations of her English as well.When I was fifteen，she used to have me call people on the phone to pretend I was she.I was forced to ask for information or even to yell at people who had been rude to her.One time I had to call her stockbroker(股票经纪人)．I said in an adolescent voice that was not very convincing，“This is Mrs.Tan.”
And my mother was standing beside me，whispering loudly，“Why he don't send me ch eck already two weeks late.”
And then，in perfect English I said，“I'm getting rather concerned.You agreed to send the check two weeks ago，but it hasn't arrived.”
Then she talked more loudly.“What he wants？I come to New York to tell him in front of hi s boss.”And so I turned to the stockbroker again，“I can't tolerate
any more excuse.If I don't receive the check immediately，I am going to have to speak to your manager when I am in New York next week.”
The next week we ended up in New York.While I was sitting there red­faced，my mother，the real Mrs.Tan，was shouting to his boss in her broken English.
When I was a teenager，my mother's broken English embarrassed me.But now，I see it differently.To me，my mother's English is perfectly clear，perfectly natural.It is my mother tongue.Her language，as I hear it，is vivid，direct，and full of observation and wisdom.It was the language that helped shape the way I saw things，expressed ideas，and made sense of the world.

2．From Paragraph 2，we know that the author was ________.

C．ready to help her mother
D．unwilling to phone for her mother
[解析]细节理解题。

3．After the author made the phone call，________.
A．they forgave the stockbroker
B．they failed to get the check
C．they went to New York immediately
D．they spoke to their boss at once
[解析]细节理解题。

根据第六段第一句话“The next week we ended up in New York.”及第五段最后一句话可知他们没能要回“check”，因此她们才在下周去了纽约。

[答案]B

A．It confuses her.
B．It embarrasses her.
C．It helps her understand the world.
D．It helps her tolerate rude people.
