Question

【題目】根據(jù)材料內(nèi)容完成下列任務(wù)。
My name is Jerry Zhang, and I am a father of two young daughters one is about four years old and the other is only about one. I come from China and now live in the USA.
One day, my older daughter, Madison, told me she didn't want to be Chinese. Those days she was crazy about the book characters Madeline and Eloise. She kept asking me why she was Chinese and they weren't, and how she could have blonde or red hair like them.
This made me look for books with Asian (亞洲的) characters for Madison to read. However, I only found a few, and they were heavily cultural, and Madison didn't connect (把……聯(lián)系在一起) herself with any if the characters in them. And she wasn't interested in them at all. Then she told me again that she didn't want to be Chinese, and it broke my heart.
In most of the books for children in the USA, the characters look like Americans. Few of them have Asian faces, although there are over 17 million Asians and Asian Americans in this country. I think it's important for Asian children to see themselves in books as interesting and smart kids.
So I created (創(chuàng)作) a book for Madison. Pepper Zhang in the book is an Asian girl. Her imagination (想象) takes her on a trip to creativity and art! I want my children to know-that being Chinese or being Asian is a great thing, too.

【解析】本文講述作者作為一位在美國(guó)的中國(guó)人所遇到的困惑：他的孩子經(jīng)常讀到的書(shū)里都是白膚金發(fā)碧眼的美國(guó)人，所以跟作者說(shuō)不想當(dāng)中國(guó)人，作者意識(shí)到在美國(guó)的書(shū)籍里很少有亞洲的人物，于是就著手為女兒創(chuàng)作。
⑴細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)I come from China and now live in the USA可知杰瑞·張來(lái)自中國(guó)，現(xiàn)在住在美國(guó)，所以答案是：正確。
⑵細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第二段Those days she was crazy about the book characters Madeline and Eloise可知Madeline和Eloise是兩個(gè)書(shū)中的人物，所以答案是：正確。
⑶細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第二段最后一句Then she told me again that she didn't want to be Chinese, and it broke my heart.可知他的女兒又一次告訴他說(shuō)不想當(dāng)中國(guó)人，所以他感到很傷心，所以答案是：His daughter Madison said she didn't want to be Chinese.。
⑷細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第三段可知在美國(guó)的大部分的書(shū)里的人物都看起來(lái)像美國(guó)人，很少有亞洲人的面孔，所以不容易買(mǎi)到里面有亞洲的人物的兒童書(shū)籍，所以答案是：No. it isn't.。
⑸細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)最后一段I want my children to know-that being Chinese or being Asian is a great thing, too. 可知作者認(rèn)為作為中國(guó)人或者亞洲人是一件很棒的事情，所以答案是：A。
