Since last year, Where Are We Going, Dad has become the most popular TV shows. On the show, the five fathers and their children traveled around China, riding camels through the western deserts, fishing on the east coast, and selling vegetables for their bus fare(费用) home in southwestern Yunnan province.
One dad doesn’t know how to do his daughter’s hair, so some people try to help him. Another one must survive(生存) with his son for three days in the desert because the father can’t cook, they only eat instant noodles(方便面).
Why is Where Are We Going, Dad so popular Because it is about how Chinese parents look after their kids. The show makes modern parents think about what they should do with their kids.” In traditional Chinese culture, the father is strict and the mother is kind. But on the show, we see fathers who are much gentle on their kids and more involved(参与) in their upbringing(成长).” said Li Minyi, a professor of early childhood education.
In the past, children were taught their parents’ wishes and look after them in their old age. But today Chinese parents increasingly realize that respecting their children’s choices may be a better way to prepare them for modern society. As they raise their children, parents are growing up at the same time.

A. there aren’t any vegetables in the desert
B. the father can’t cook

3. In the fourth paragraph, the underlined word “them” refers to (指的是) .
A. modern parents B. the five fathers on the show
C. the parents in the past D. the children in the old days
4. Why is Where Are We Going, Dad so popular
A. Because it’s about how Chinese parents raise their children.
B. Because there are many famous stars on the show.
C. Because it’s about how to help the poor.
D. Because it’s about how to sell vegetables.
5. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage

When my family moved to America in 2010 from a small village in Guangdong，China，we brought not only our luggage，but also our village rules，customs and culture．One of the rules is that young people should always respect(尊敬) elders．Unluckily，this rule led to my very first embarrassment in the United States．
I had a part-time job as a waiter in an American restaurant．One time，when I was serving food to a middle-aged couple，the wife asked me how the food could be served so quickly．I told her that I had made sure they got their food quickly because I always respect the elderly．As soon as I said that，her face showed great displeasure．My manager，who happened to hear what I said，took me aside and gave me a long lecture about how sensitive(敏感) Americans are and how they dislike the description “old”．I then walked back to the table and apologized to the wife．After the couple heard my reason，they understood that the problem was caused by cultural differences，so they laughed and were no longer angry．
In my village in China，people are proud of being old．Not so many people live to be seventy or eighty，and people who reach such an age have the most knowledge and experience．Young people always respect older people because they know they can learn from their rich experience．
However，in the United States，people think“growing old” is a problem since“old” shows that a person is going to retire or that the body is not working well．Here many people try to keep themselves away from growing old by doing exercises or jogging，and women put on make-up，hoping to look young．When I told the couple in the restaurant that I respect the elderly，they got angry because this caused them to feel they had failed to stay young．I had told them something they didn’t want to hear．
After that，I changed the way I had been with older people．It is not that I don’t respect them any more；I still respect them，but now I don’t show my feelings through words．
By Jack

Dear Mr. and Mrs. Green,
How are you Thank you for looking after me when I studied in America.
I experienced a big culture shock in America at first. But you were very kind to me and helped me a lot. I later got used to the life there. And I learnt many things in America, such as the language and the culture. I also made many friends there.
After I returned to China, I shared the things I’ve learnt with my classmates and friends. I really miss all of you. I hope that we can keep in touch with each other all the time. And I also hope that you will come to China one day.
Yours,
Huang Hai
