Born into a Chinese family that had recently arrived in California, I"ve been giving more thought to the kind of English my mother speaks. Like others, I have described it to people as "broken" English. But I feel embarrassed to say that. It has always bothered me that I can think of no way to describe it other than "broken", as if it were damaged and needed to be fixed, as if it lacked certain wholeness. I"ve heard other terms used, "limited English," for example. But they seem just as bad, as if everything is limited, including people"s perceptions(认识) of the limited English speaker.
I know this for a fact, because when I was growing up, my mother"s "limited" English limited my perception of her. I was ashamed of her English. I believed that her English reflected the quality of what she had to say. That is, because she expressed them imperfectly her thoughts were imperfect. And I had plenty of evidence to support me: the fact that 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.
I started writing fiction in 1985. And for reasons I won"t get into today, I began to write stories using all the Englishes I grew up with: the English she used with me, which for a lack of a better term might be described as "broken", and what I imagine to be her translation of her Chinese, her internal (内在的) language, and for that I sought to preserve the essence, but neither an English nor a Chinese structure: I wanted to catch what language ability tests can never show; her intention, her feelings, the rhythms of her speech and the nature of her thoughts.

She asked many wise people to help her 38 why she was so bad that even her mother hurt her, and why she was unable to be 39 so that others wouldn’t hurt her. So she was on a 40 that she thought was to help her be “better”, but she carried a big 41 with her everywhere she went. 42 was all the hurt she had experienced.

Strauss took a lot of cloth with him to San Francisco. He thought that he could make tents out of the cloth and sell them to people working in the gold fields. But when he got there, he saw that people had a greater need for clothes than tents. Clothes did not last very long in the gold fields. At first Strauss made pants out of canvas（帆布）. They were very strong ---- much stronger than other pants. Soon everyone was wearing them , so he decided only to make pants. He opened a small store and made a lot of money from selling pants.
After a while, Strauss found a material even stronger than canvas. It came from a town in France called Nimes. The French called the material serge de Nimes, which means “cloth from Nimes”. The Americans called it denim. Strauss also bought some cloth from Genoa, a town in Italy. To Americans this name sounds like “jeans”, so they called his pants jeans. The cloth that Strauss used was always blue, so people also called his pants blue jeans and blue denims. Other people called them Levi’s. Levi Strauss jeans are some of the best-selling jeans in the world today. They last a long time and are very comfortable.

Who is Moses Zulu talking about? Are there even people who live like that? Sadly, in truth, there are. They happen to be the Zambian children that Moses Zulu helps to improve their lives. Zulu does his best to give many children the hope to live even though they might have AIDS. Without his continuous work through his organization called Children’s Town, many Zambian children would have been forced to survive（生存）in an African city by getting a job as a street vendor（街头小贩）, or hurting other people.
In 1990, Moses Zulu founded Children’s Town in Zambia, where one million children have no parents, largely because of AIDS. Children’s Town teaches children the basic life skills needed for their future. Each child goes through a five-year training program where they’re taught responsibility（责任）, values, and self-care. Zulu’s Children’s Town provides
hope for less fortunate children.As we all know, a hero is any person who is respected for their qualities and achievements. There are not many people who are willing to help others in need. Zulu’s contribution to today’s modern society teaches us to lend a helping hand to others who are not as lucky as we are. He teaches us to make a difference in the world by helping others.
And from now on, if ever you throw away your banana just because it looks bad, well, remember that a group of people suffering from AIDS, homelessness, or other causes, would fight each other just to get their hands on a single bad banana.
68. 小题1: Which of the following CANNOT describe Moses Zulu according to the passage?
| A．Devoted | B．Easy-going |
| C．Determined | D．Kind-hearted |
| A．how to fight against AIDS |
| B．how to get a job as a street vendor |
| C．how to survive by themselves |
| D．how to avoid fighting in the street |
| A．a teacher | B．a doctor | C．a hero | D．a fighter |
| A．plant more bananas | B．make use of bad food |
| C．invent medicine for AIDS | D．help poor people |
At 3:42 am everything began to 56 . It seemed that the world was at an end! Eleven kilometers directly below the city the greatest earthquake of the 20th century 57 . It was heard in Beijing, which is one hundred kilometers away. One-third of the nation felt it. A huge crack that was eight kilometers long and thirty meters 58 cut across houses, roads and canals. Steam burst from holes in the ground. Hard hills of rock became rivers of dirt. In fifteen 59 seconds a large city lay in ruins. Two-thirds of the people died or were injured during the 60 . Thousands of families were killed and many children were left without parents. The 61 of people who were killed or injured reached more than 400,000.
But how could the 62 believe it was natural? Everywhere they looked nearly everything was destroyed. All of the city’s hospitals, 75% of its factories and buildings and 90% of its homes were gone. Bricks covered the ground like red autumn leaves. No wind, however, could blow them away. Two dams fell and most of the bridges also fell or were not safe for 63 . The railway tracks were now useless pieces of 64 . Tens of thousands of cows would never give 65 again. Half a million pigs and millions of chickens had died. Sand now filled the wells instead of water. People were 66 . Then, later that afternoon, another big quake shook Tangshan. Some of the rescue workers and doctors were trapped under the ruins. More buildings fell down. Water, food, and electricity were 67 to get. People began to wonder how long the disaster would last.
All hope was not lost. The army sent 150,000 68 to Tangshan to help the rescue workers. Hundreds of thousands of people were 69 . The army organized teams to dig out those who were trapped and to bury the dead. To the north of the city, most of the 10.000 miners were rescued from the coalmines. Workers built shelters for survivors whose homes had been destroyed. Fresh water was taken to the city by train, truck and plane. Slowly, the city began to 70 again.
