問題詳情:
London’s Chinese community (社群) dates back to the 18th century, when a small number of Chinese sailors (水手) moved to the city to work in Lime house, east London. As time went on, other Chinese people came to this area and Lime house began to be known as "Chinatown". At the start of the 20th century, there were just 545 Chinese people in Britain. However, this situation changed greatly after the Second World War. At this time, many farmers in Hong Kong lost their jobs, and decided to move to London. In the 1950s, a small Chinese restaurant opened in central London. Many British people visited it and said that Chinese food was wonderful. Suddenly, Chinese restaurants started opening in every part of the city. Instead of too little work, the new Chinese immigrants (移民) now found that they had too much. Most of the new immigrants enjoyed their life and the chances they were offered. Many asked their friends and relatives to join them from their hometowns, and a lot of families were reunited again at this time.
As time went by, London’s Chinese community became more and more successful. The sons and daughters of the first restaurant workers, encouraged by their parents, studied very hard at school and university. And most got highly-paid jobs. As a result, increasing numbers of Chinese families left Chinatown and moved to the more expensive places. Chinatown, however, is still as lively as ever, and a must-see for every visitor to London.
25. From the passage, we can learn that the first members of "China town" were _______.
A. restaurant workers B. early Chinese sailors
C. Hong Kong farmers D. visitors to London
26. What does the author mean by the underlined sentence in Paragraph 1?
A. Lime house was influenced by World War II.
B. The number of Chinese people in Britain increased after the war.
C. Many Hong Kong farmers lost their jobs because of the war.
D. The new immigrants found it hard to find jobs during the war.
27. According to the passage, now most of the Chinese living in London _________.
A. are clever B. work long hours
C. have highly-paid jobs D. live an unhappy life
