Dad kissed me goodbye and left.For a long time Mom and I lived a peaceful life. Then one day, Jim came over for lunch wearing a blue suit with a short brown tie and a green shirt. I couldnt believe this was going to be my new stepfather. It couldnt be true that my beautiful mother would marry someone who dressed like a clown(小丑). I hated him. Lunch was terrible. Mother kept trying to start a conversation, but neither Jim nor I would say much. Finally I offered to bring in the dessert just to get away from the clown.Something unpleasant happened, but I didnt mean(故意) to do it. I guess the plate slipped. But one minute I was handing Jim his blackberry pie, and the next, dark purple berries were oozing(渗出) all over his shirt and tie. I was mortified. My face turned bright red. Jim looked very much surprised at first, but then he began to laugh. I started to laugh too. Maybe this guy was all right, after all. Then I had a quick look at my mother.

It is just between Leicester Square and Shaftsbury Avenue. Gerrard Street is at the center and is the most important street in the area. There is a large Chinese community(社区) with a lot of Chinese restaurants, supermarkets and shops in this street.In the 1950s, it was a poor area and everything was very cheap. At the same time, the world rice market changed and thousands of farm workers in Hong Kong lost their jobs. They began arriving in London to look for work. They found jobs in the restaurants in this area. Many British people liked Chinese food, and the restaurants were popular.These restaurant workers often worked 17 hours a day and had no time to learn English. As more Chinese arrived, more shops and businesses grew up. Wives came and joined their husbands and children came and joined their fathers. The community grew, and Chinatown was born.In the 1970s and 1980s, Britishborn Chinese started to have a better education and this brought economic(经济的) success to the area. Many families moved out of Chinatown, and there was more space for businesses. Gerrard Street became a street only for visitors and was soon a popular place for tourists.Now everyone knows about Londons Chinatown. During the Chinese New Year, the streets are seen with flags and thousands of Chinese go into the streets. For most of the year, though, Londoners and tourists go there mainly for the food in the Chinese restaurants. The best restaurants are the ones where the Chinese eat.根据短文内容，回答下列问题。1Is this Chinatown in the middle of London?_2Was the area rich or poor in the 1950s?_3Why did the restaurant workers have no time to learn English?_4When did Britishborn Chinese start to have a better education?_5What are the main points about Chinatown in this passage?_详解详析.1.D由第二段中的“Jim came over for lunch wearing a blue suit with a short brown tie and a green shirt.”以及“someone who dressed like a clown.”可推断，作者觉得Jim的衣服很滑稽。2A 3C画线单词后提到了“我的脸变
