第三节 阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，共40分）

A

I fell in love with the minister's son the winter I turned fourteen.

He was not Chinese. For Christmas I prayed for the boy, Robert. When I

found out that my parents had invited the minister’s family over for

Christmas Eve dinner, I cried in panic. What would Robert think of our

shabby Chinese Christmas? What would he think of our noisy Chinese

relatives who lacked proper American manners?

On Christmas Eve, my mother created abundant Chinese food. And then

they arrived—the minister’s family and all my relatives. Robert greeted hello, and I pretended he was not worthy of existence.

Dinner threw me deeper into disappointment. My relative licked(舔)the

ends of their chopsticks and reached across the table. Robert and his

family waited patiently for a large plate to be passed to them. My

relatives murmured with pleasure when my mother brought out the whole

steamed fish. Robert made a face. Then my father reached his chopsticks

just below the fish eye and picked out the soft meat. “Amy, your

favorite,” he said, offering me the tender fish cheek. I wanted to

disappear.

At the end of the meal, my father leaned back and burped(打嗝) loudly,

thanking my mother for her fine cooking. “It's a polite Chinese custom

to show you are satisfied,” explained my father to our astonished guests.

Robert was looking down at his plate with a reddish face. The minister

managed to bring up a quiet burp. I was shocked into silence for the rest

of the night.

After everyone had gone, my mother said to me, “You want to be the

same as American girls on the outside.” She handed me an early gift. It

was a miniskirt. “But inside you must always be Chinese. You must be proud

that you are different. Your only shame is to have shame.”

It was not until years later that I was able to fully appreciate her

lesson and the purpose behind her particular menu. For Christmas Eve that

year, she had chosen excellent Chinese food.
