ABC means American-born Chinese. An ABC is a Chinese, but was born in the United States. Sometimes, people call an ABC a “banana person”. A banana is yellow outside and white inside. So, when a person is a banana, he or she is white inside-thinking like a Westerner outside-looking like a Chinese. Do you know why Usually, ABCs know little about Chinese language. Some of them do not speak Chinese. Also, they are not interested in Chinese politics.
But if ABCs cannot speak Chinese, can we still call them Chinese people Yes, of course. They are Chinese. They are overseas-Chinese. These people may be citizens(公民) of another country like US, England or Canada, but they have Chinese blood(血液). Their parents, grandparents or even great-grandparents were from China. They all have black eyes and black hair. But they are not Chinese citizens. They are not people of People’s Republic of China. For example, we all know the famous scientist C.N,Yang(杨振宁). He got the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1957. Chinese people love him. But he is an American citizen.
ABCs knows ___________ about Chinese language.
C,N.Yang is a(an) citizen.

Dear grandma,
How’s it going I hope that grandpa is well now. I was sorry to hear that he had a cold last week. I hope you are in good health.
Things are fine here. I finished my end-of-year exams last week, and got my report card today. I always get nervous when I see the envelope from school in the mall, but luckily I did OK
this time. I had a really hard time with science this semester, and I wasn’t surprised to find that my worst report was from my science teacher. She said I was lazy, which isn’t true. It’s just that I find
science really difficult. Another disappointing result was in history. My history teacher said I could do better. The good news is that my math teacher said I was hard-working. And
my Spanish teacher said my listening was good.
Well, that’s about all the news I have for now. Mom and Dad send their love.
Love, Alan
