You may like eating bananas, but do you know there are people called “banana persons”? If you dont know, I will tell you about it. They are some Chinese people like you and me, but they arent in China. Why do people call them like that?If we call somebody an ABC person, we mean he or she is a Chinese but was born (出生) in America. Sometimes, people also call them “banana persons”. A banana is yellow outside and white inside. So if somebody is a “banana person”, he or she is “white” inside and “yellow” outside. By saying that, we mean he or she has yellow skin(皮肤) but does things in an American way. “Banana persons” were born in America and they live in America for a long time, so they think like Americans and do things like Americans. However, these people still have Chinese blood(血统). Their parents, grandparents or even great-grandparents are from China. They all have black eyes and black hair, so they look like us, Chinese people.There are many famous “banana persons” in America. They do very well in America and they are really great in their own fields.（1）From the passage, we can learn “ABC” means _. A . English lettersB . Peoples namesC . “banana persons”D .

Time passed.I do not agree, the time traveler said, Length, breadth and thickness do not pass. They stay in the same place in space. We move about them. I can prove that time is the same.

In my laboratory, a full-size machine is almost complete. As soon as it is complete, I shall send myself on a journey through time. Would you like to see my machine?Are you serious about this? the doctor asked.I have never been more serious about anything, the time traveler said, Come.We followed him to his laboratory.
