25、 ” asked Minh. “Why dont they help you buy food ” “Our children have their own lives,” said the man and the woman. “We like to be independent.” Minh doesnt think this is right.

27、t stared at Minh. In Vietnam, friends often hold hands. Minh found that the people in America are not used to men holding hands. Minh Pham is going through a process（过程） known as resocialization. Socialization（社会化） is the process in which a person learns to live in a society. Everyone goes through t
28、his process. Minh went through it when he lived in Vietnam. But the Vietnamese way of life is rather different from the American way of life.

33、 find food. Some fishes give birth in warm water and move to cold water to feed. The most famous migration （迁移） is probably the migration of the fish, which is called “salmon”.
