问题     We suffer from a conspicuous lack of role models and shared causes. This is【B1】______of reason, I think, that many young Asian-Americans continue to assimilate quietly into American【B2】______as doctors, scientists and engineers. Our struggles are individual and familial but【B3】______communal or political. Ours is a frustratingly limited version of the American Dream. While I can strive for【B4】______into Harvard and become the talk of the Korean mothers in my hometown, God forbid that I aim much further and higher than that【B5】______fame and influence as a writer, an intellectual or perhaps president of the United States.
    I wish more than anything else to feel like part of something【B6】______than myself and my personal ambitions, part of a larger culture. Unfortunately, by coming to America, my parents【B7】______the cultural legacy they would have passed on to me. When I visited【B8】______last summer, found that I was【B9】______and chastised by many people for never learning how to speak Korean and for turning my【B10】______on their culture.

With【B17】______numbers of Asian-American【B18】______applying to top colleges, many white students have begun to complain about Asian-American【B19】______and competitiveness, calling us "Asian nerds". Many Americans consider this as part of a larger "Asian invasion" associated【B20】______Japan’s export success in America.

选项 A、homeless
B、careless
C、selfless
D、warm-hearted

答案A

解析 做本题时应该注意到woman后面的on the street,再注意到后半句“滚回日本去”,按照逻辑,首先应该排除选项[C]selfless(无私的)和[D]warm—hearted(热心的),同时也反映出该woman并非是不在意的,故排除选项[B]careless(粗心的;不在意的)。选项[A]homeless与on the street正好搭配。
