Welcome to the Club! and answer the questions that follow.I came here to teach English in my early 20s and eventually moved into business, running a small import-export operation. I majored in Mandarin Chinese back in the U.S. and continued my languag e studies here. I’m now fluent in Chinese and my reading is just about perfect, I’m married to a local woman and have three kids who were all born and raised here. Granted, I haven’t got Chinese citizenship, as that would have involved me renouncing my Ame rican citizenship. I wasn’t prepared to do that as it would have caused me too many headaches, not least of which would have been having to get a visa every time I wanted to go back to visit family. But I have permanent residency in China and consider this my home. Despite all this, most Chinese people will always see me as an outsider. When I speak Mandarin, some people sometimes stare at me like I’m from another planet as they just can’t get it into their heads that a foreigner can speak their language. Also, as an African-American and a fairly tall guy, I am constantly stereotyped. People will ask if I can play basketball and are incredulous when I say I’m not a big fan. Once when I had just come through customs, I was mobbed by a huge group of fans who were waiting to greet some NBA stars who were visiting. It took me ages to explain that they had the wrong guy. Most of the stereotypes people have here are pretty harmless and there is no malice intended, but it can be pretty annoying, especially when peop le act amazed on discovering you’re a businessman.43. Which of the following is true about the writer?a. He has Chinese citizenship.b. He enjoys basketball.c. He has spent many years in his adopted country.d. He has had no issues adapting in his adopted country.44. What do people find hard to believe about the writer?a. He is an NBA star.b. He is an American businessman.c. He has so many children.d. He speaks Mandarin fluently.45. Why did fans mistake the writer for someone famous?a. He is black.b. He is tall.c. He looks American.d. All of the above.46. The word malice is closest in meaning to which of the following?a. harmb. visac. residencyd. stereotype(B)Directions:Directions: Read the following excerpt from Smarty Pants: The Stars with Big Brains and answer the questions that follow.Conan O’BrienThere’s no doubt that the late-night talk show host has the gift of the gab. He’s known for poking fun at anyone and everyone in the entertainment industry including himself. Illustrative of his knack for irreverent, quirky humor is the fact that he was a writer and producer for The Simpsons for a couple of seasons before he made a name for himself. Some might feel that his brand of humor is far from intellectual. However, there is no disputing the 50-year-old’s academic credentials. He graduated magna cum laude from Harvard with a degree in history in 1985.Natalie PortmanThe Israeli-born actress is the perfect example of how beauty and brains need not be mutually exclusive. In addition to starring in many critically acclaimed films, she is known for her political-activism, supporting causes like same-sex marriage in the U.S. and women’s rights in developing countries. Although she made her big screen debut in 1994 at the tender age of 12, she did not let it affect her education. Like O’Brien, Portman attended Harvard, where she got her bachelor’s degree in psychology in 2003 while continuing her work as an actress. Furthermore, Portman is also a polyglot, with fluency in Hebrew, French and Japanese.47. What did Conan O’Brien do before he was famous?a. studyb. drawc. actd. sell48. According to the excerpt, what do Portman and O’Brien have in common?a. They are 50 years old.b. They graduated in the same year.c. They majored in the same subject.d. They studied at the same university.49. Where is Portman originally from?a. Franceb. Japanc. the Middle Eastd. the U.S.50. The word polyglot is closest in meaning, as it is used in the excerpt, to which of the following?a. bilingualb. multilingualc. Jewishd. deaf。
