【題目】The label(標(biāo)簽), Made in China, is one that is becoming increasing common in shopping centers all over the world.
In the United States, shoppers at Wal-Mart, the nation’s largest retailer(零售商), have a wide selection of products mostly produced in China. The large amount of Chinese imports have created a large selection of goods in other countries as people begin to buy more and more products made in China. These goods are even widely available in other Asian nations, where Chinese-made goods are quite popular. Chinese brand names are also becoming more well-known outside China.
When Chinese Americans visit family and friends in their homeland, gifts from the U.S. are a must. But TVs and fashionable clothes aren't rare any more, and anything 'Made in China' shouldn’t be considered in any case.
"When I decide to visit my family members in China, I will have a big headache. What should I buy for them? They may not all speak English, but everyone in China knows those three words," a Chinese American said. "When they see the label 'Made in China,' they will think, 'Why do you send me this?' "
The development of China has surprised the world with its growth. As a result, the other countries are beginning to try to reduce Chinese goods with the use of taxes(稅)and import restrictions. However, the development on the Chinese economy still affects the world in many ways.
【1】What is the Chinese meaning of the underlined word “brand” in the second paragraph?
A. 品牌 B. 明星 C. 生產(chǎn)地 D. 樹枝
【2】Why do Chinese Americans usually have a headache if they come back to China?
A. Because their Chinese friends cannot speak English.
B. Because their friends will be unhappy if the gifts are made in China.
C. Because they should give their friends rare gifts.
D. Because they should give their friends fashionable gifts.
【3】How do other countries try to reduce the Chinese goods in their own countries?
A. By developing the qualities of their own products.
B. By telling their shoppers not to buy Chinese goods.
C. By importing more Chinese goods.
D. By using taxes and import restrictions.
