However, people are used to speaking their native language, so immigrants are having many problems between the first generation and the second generat

2、ion because they dont have the same native language. Also, the second generation is losing their identity. Especially in America, there are many immigrants that came from different countries to succeed in the States. Because they suffer in lots of areas such as getting a job and trying to speak Engl

3、ish, they want their children to speak English, not only at school, but also at home in order to be more successful. Because of this situation, their children are losing their ethnic identity and, even more, they are ignoring their parents whose English is not very good. I think most immigrants are

4、trying to preserve their native language in their new country, but this doesnt help very much in getting a good job. My aunt didnt teach Korean to her children in order to help them succeed in the US; she did so, hopefully, to help them establish a Korean identity. Though the second generation is bo

5、rn in the new country, they often get confused about their identity. My cousins told me that when they visited Korea a few years ago, they felt different from other Koreans. They could even feel it just strolling around the street because they wore different clothes. We must realize that language is

6、 important and valuable for many reasons.

10、wing passage.Yinlan looked at the people sitting around the table and smiled with satisfaction. Everyone in her family was thereher children, her grandchildren, and her new great-grandson, just one month old. Her whole family had come to celebrate the Harvest Moon Festival （节日）. Two days after the H

11、arvest Moon Festival, Yinlan died peacefully in her sleep. Her family was sad but at the same time grateful. They felt happy that they had been able to celebrate the Harvest Moon Festival with her one last time. Everyone said it was remarkable that Yinlan had died just two days after the holiday. Ac

12、tually, the timing of Yinlans death was not remarkable at all. Recently sociologists （社会学家） studied the death rate among elderly Chinese women in California. They discovered that the death rate drops 35 percent before the Harvest Moon Festival and then rises 35 percent. Sociologists believe that the

13、se changes in death rate show the minds power over the body. The Harvest Moon Festival, when families gather, is important to elderly Chinese women.
