Born in America, I spoke English, not Chinese, the language of my ancestors. When I was three, my parents flashed cards with Chinese __21__ at my face, but I pushed them __22__. My mom believed I would learn __23__ I was ready. But the __24__ never came.
On a Chinese New Year’s Eve, my uncle spoke to me in Chinese, but all I could do was __25__ at him, confused, scratching my head. “Still can’t speak Chinese?” He __26__ me, “You can’t even buy a fish in Chinatown.”
“Hey, this is America, not China. I’ll get some __27__ with or without Chinese.” I replied and turned to my mom for __28__.
“Remember to ask for fresh fish, Xin Xian Yu,” she said, handing over a $20 bill. I __29__ the words, running down straight into the streets of Chinatown.
I found the fish __30__ surrounded in a sea of customers. “I’d like to buy some fresh fish,” I shouted to the fishman. But he __31__ my English words and turned to serve the next customer. The laugh of the people behind increased __32__ their impatience. With every __33__, the breath of the dragons on my back grew stronger－my blood boiling－ __34__ me to cry out, “Xian Sheng Yu, please.” “Very Xian Sheng,” I repeated. The crowd erupted into laughter. My face turned __35__ and I ran back home __36__, except for the $20 bill I held tightly in my pocket.
Should I laugh or cry? They’re Chinese. I’m Chinese. I should feel right at __37__. Instead, I was the joke, a disgrace to the language.
Sometimes, I laugh at my fish __38__, but, in the end, the joke is on __39__. Every laugh is a culture __40__; every laugh is my heritage fading away.

Each of us has our own __26__of what cheese is, and we want to __27__it because we believe it makes us __28__.
Once there lived four little characters. Two were __29__named Sniff and Scurry and two were little people named Hem and Haw.
Every morning, the mice and the little people __30_their running wear and went to Cheese Station C __31__they found their cheese. It was such a large store(仓库) of cheese that Hem and Haw __32__moved their homes to be closer to it.
One morning, Sniff and Scurry arrived at Cheese Station C and discovered there was __33__cheese. They weren’t surprised. __34__they had noticed the supply 35 cheese had been getting smaller every day; they were prepared for the result. They set out quickly to __36__new cheese.
Later that same day, Hem and Haw arrived. “What? No cheese! Who moved my cheese?” Hem yelled(叫喊). They went home that night __37__and discouraged.
The next day Hem and Haw __38__to Cheese Station C. But the situation hadn’t changed. Haw asked, “Do Sniff and Scurry know something we don’t know?” Hem __39__him and said, “What would they know? They are simple 40 and we are human beings. They cannot be __41__than we are.”
Haw suggested, “Maybe we should 42 talking about the situation and just to look for some new cheese.”
Haw decided to 43 Cheese Station C while Hem was more comfortable staying in the cheese less Station C.
Meanwhile, Sniff and Scurry went farther 44 they found Cheese Station N. They found what they had been looking for. It was the biggest 45 of cheese the mice had ever seen.

Thanks to a combination of young businessmen, large numbers of university students and revitalization(新生) efforts by the local and national governments, today's Nanjing has an __36__ of youthful exuberance(繁茂) that would have been __37__ only a few decades ago. __38__， the city, a booming city of 6.5 million on the banks of the Yangtze River some 185 miles west of Shanghai, bears __39__ resemblance to the former capital of China that suffered the worst cruelty and violence of World War II.
__40__ Nanjing has shown a remarkable capacity for reinvention during its 2500year history. And in recent years, the city has moved __41__ its tragic past to become a vital engine of China's economic growth, thanks __42__ to its position in the middle of China's prosperous eastern seaboard. Growth has also __43__ thanks to improved ground transportation: A new bullet train linking Nanjing and Shanghai started service last year, __44__ travel time between the cities from several hours to just 75 minutes, and a BeijingShanghai highspeed line is __45__ to open later this year, with a stop in Nanjing. Within the city, two metro lines were built in the last few years; 15 more are planned to begin service by 2030.
Signs of Nanjing's __46__ wealth and optimism can be seen enerywhere. In the heart of the downtown Xinjiekou district, a bronze statue of Sun Yatsen, __47__ the father of modern China, looks __48__ over a busy __49__ area.
There is perhaps no more __50__ symbol of the city's transformation than the Zifeng Tower, a 1480foot skyscraper that opened its doors last May. __51__ offices, restaurants and an InterContinental hotel, the tower is the second tallest building in China and billed as the seventh tallest in the world.
Underlying all this development is a large Chinese and __52__ student population—there are several major universities, plus a branch of Johns Hopkins's international studies school. In fact, art and music __53__ in all sorts of places.
On a larger __54__， local government officials and private investors are pushing the city as a rising center for contemporary art and architecture, hoping to attract __55__ from the neonbathed streets of its neighbor Shanghai.
