It was amazing to be part of the culture though for one year. It was interesting to learn that the North of America is different from its South; that the West varies from the East, and the difference in people, in their perception of life, attitude toward each other, respect for the family and their roots, and of course the history of their lands. Being in about nine states in the US, from the East to the West, I could see and learn the difference firsthand.Before going to the US, I didnt know much about the difference of the upper states and the southern states. I didnt know that the majority of the population living in California are Latinos, and every second person that one sees speaks Spanish. I didnt also know that to understand the native speaker in New York is going to be harder than understanding someone from Atlanta, GA.When people ask me about the place I was in the US，I say, “You wouldnt know. My America is different from the America of Hollywood movies. The America I was in is quiet, small, peaceful, supportive, and unique.”I have made a lot of friends in America，not only from the country itself, but also from many other countries. I never had a chance to be bored, never lacked an opportunity to learn about peoples cultures.America unites a variety of people on its land. It is like music bringing people together on the dance floor.1In the second paragraph, the writer mainly wanted to prove to us _.Athe equality in AmericaBthe cultural diversity of AmericaCthe big size of AmericaDthe influence of America2According to the writers experience, we can learn that _.ASpanish is widely spoken in CaliforniaBthe Southern States are mainly made up of LatinosCpeople in Atlanta speak better English than those in New YorkDit is easier for the Whites to realize their dreams in America3How can people learn about America best according to the writer?ABy watching Hollywood movies.BBy reading books which introduce America.CBy making friends with people from America.DBy visiting America in person.4The writers staying in America can be anything but _.Ainteresting BunforgettableCdull Deducational答案与解析：1解析：第二段中重点提到了美国北部和南部的不同，东西方的不同，人们以及人们的观点态度等等的不同，这些都是说明美国文化的多元化。答案：B2解析：根据第三段的“. every second person that one sees speaks Spanish.”可知A项正确。答案：A3解析：根据作者自己的经历可知只有亲自到了那里，亲自去体会，才能真正了解美国。答案：D4解析：文章中谈到的全是作者在美国的一些好的、有趣的体验，因此当然不会感到乏味。答案：C系列资料
