law to vote, drink wine, and smoke. The second Monday in January is a national holiday called "Coming of
Age Day". On this day, twenty-year-olds celebrate by first going to a shrine (神庙) with their families. Later,
they listen to speeches given by city and school leaders. After that, many get together with family late into the
night.

fortieth and fiftieth birthdays, or the year when they retire, with a big party.

     In England, we call Mother"s Day Mothering Sunday, because it"s always on a Sunday.  I 
don"t really know the origin of it but I remember that my mother had a cup of tea early in the 
morning. And then we would go to church. And at the end of the church service, the children  would collect a daffodil (水仙花) and take it back and give ic to our mother who would 
normally be sitting in the service in the church. And really that"s all we did to celebrate the
day.
     As Ann said, I remember taking cups of tea to my mother.  The idea in general is that the 
washing-up would be done; perhaps some cooking would be done on Mother"s Day.  We 
would try to relieve her of all those jobs to make it a special day for her, so that whenever 
she looked around, there was something to eat, something to drink, or something to read, or
something interesting for her to do.
     Father"s Day is always in June, a Sunday in the middle of June.  On Father"s Day, the idea
 is to find something fun that the children could do with their father together.  I remember
 going to baseball games. I think that on Father"s Day it"s particularly focused on doing things 
together because that is supposed to be relaxing and fun for Dad.

    Chinatown is the name given to an area in the middle of London. It is just be- tween Leicester Square and 
Shaftsbury Avenue. .Gerrard Street is at the center and is the most important street in the area.  There is a 
large Chinese community (社区) with a lot of Chinese restaurants, Chinese supermarkets and shops in this 
street.      
    In the 1950s, it was a poor area and everything was very cheap. At the same time, the world rice market 
changed and thousands of farm workers in Hong Kong lost their jobs. They began arriving in London to look 
for work.  They found jobs in the restaurants in this area. Many British people liked Chinese food, and the 
restaurants were popular.      
     These restaurant workers often worked 17 hours a day and had no time to leam English. As more Chinese 
arrived, more shops and businesses grew up. Wives came and joined their husbands and children came and 
joined their fathers. The community grew, and Chinatown was born.      
In the 1970s and 1980s, British-bom Chinese started to have a better education and this brought economic 
(经济的)  success to the area.  Many families moved out of Chinatown, and there was more space for 
businesses.  Gerrard Street became a street only for visitors and was soon a popular place for tourists.      
     Now everyone knows about London"s Chinatown. During the Chinese New Year, the streets are seen with
flags and thousands of Chinese go into the streets. For most of the year, though, Londoners and tourists go 
there mainly for the food in the  Chinese restaurants. The best restaurants are the ones where the Chinese eat.

1. Is this Chinatown in the middle of London?
   ___________________________________
2.  Was the area rich or poor in the 1950s?
    ___________________________________
3. Why did the restaurant workers have no time to learn English?
    ___________________________________
4. When did British-bom Chinese start to have a better education?
     ___________________________________
5.  What are the main points about Chinatown in this passage7?
