22、t deep!The man and woman were coming home from a party. They were enjoying the landscape around Swansea, Wales. Suddenly, they found the front of their car leaning into a huge hole.

28、archers have found that REM (rapid eye movement) sleep is important to human beings. This type of sleep generally occurs four or five times during one night of sleep lasting five minutes to forty minutes for each occurrence. The deeper a persons sleep becomes, the longer the periods of rapid eye mov
29、ement.There are physical changes in the body to show that a person has changed from NREM (non-rapid eye movement) to REM sleep.

32、（C） Sleepers（D）What Happens to Sleepers36 People are used to speaking their native language, so immigrants are having many problems between the first generation and the second generation because they dont have the same native language. Also, the second generation is losing their identity. Especially
33、 in America, there are many immigrants that came from different countries to succeed in the States. Because they suffer in lots of areas such as getting a job and trying to speak English, they want their children to speak English, not only at school, but also at home in order to be more successful.
34、Because of this situation, their children are losing their ethnic identity.For example, my aunt, who has been living in Chicago for twenty-five years, has three children and they were all born in the States. The eighteen-year old daughter speaks English as a native language and she speaks Korean ver
35、y well too. She has no problems talking with her parents, but she still doesnt understand Korean jokes, and there are sometimes misunderstandings. The second daughter is fourteen years old, and she doesnt want to speak Korean. My aunt often gets upset with her because she is very Americanized and th
36、ey cannot understand each other. Even when my aunt punishes her, this daughter does not understand what my aunt is talking about. The third child is a twelve-year-old son. He speaks English to his parents and my aunt speaks Korean to him as she does to the second daughter. He also has a problem comm
37、unicating with his parents. My aunt is trying to teach him to speak both languages, but it is very hard for him because he speaks English all day and does not understand why he should learn to speak Korean.We must realize that language is important and valuable for many reasons. Immigrants should ma
38、ke an effort to make their children understand their heritage by teaching them the parents language. This is very important, not only for the harmony of the family, but also in helping the second generation establish their identity.37 What do you think this article is about?（A）Learning a second lang

40、 authors aunt try to teach her children to speak Korean?（A）To help her improve her Korean language skills.（B） To help them establish a Korean identity.（C） To help them succeed in the US.（D）To help them find a good job.40 Based on the passage, the phrase “your identity“ means_.（A）your home（B） your di
