Sandra Cisneros was born in Chicago in 1954 to a Mexican American family. As the only girl in a family of seven children, she often felt like she had “seven fathers”, because her six brothers, as well as her father, tried to control her. Feeling shy and unimportant, she retreated (躲避) into books. Despite her love of reading, she did not do well in elementary school because she was too shy to participate.
In high school, with the encouragement of one particular teacher, Cisneros improved her grades and worked for the school literary magazine. Her father encouraged her to go to college because he thought it would be a good way for her to find a husband. Cisneros did attend college, but instead of searching for a husband, she found a teacher who helped her join the famous graduate writing program at the University of Iowa. At the university's Writers' Workshop, however, she felt lonely—a Mexican American from a poor neighborhood among students from wealthy families. The feeling of being so different helped Cisneros find her “Creative voice”.
“It was not until this moment when I considered myself truly different that my writing acquired a voice. I knew I was a Mexican woman, but I didn't think it had anything to do with why I felt so much imbalance in my life, but it had everything to do with it! That's when I decided I would write about something my classmates couldn't write about.”
Cisneros published her first work, The House on Mango Street, when she was twenty-nine. The book tells about a young Mexican American girl growing up in a Spanish-speaking area in Chicago, much like the neighborhoods in which Cisneros lived as a child. The book won an award in 1985 and has been used in classes from high school through graduate school level. Since then, Cisneros has published several books of poetry, a children's book, and a short-story collection.
5. Which of the following is TRUE about Cisneros in her childhood?
A. She had seven brothers. B. She felt herself a nobody.
C. She was too shy to go to school. D. She did not have any good teachers.
6. The graduate writing program gave Cisneros a chance to ________.
A. work for a school magazine B. run away from her family
C. make a lot of friends D. develop her writing style
7. According to Cisneros, what played the decisive role in her success?
A. Her early years in college. B. Her training in the Workshop.
C. Her feeling of being different. D. Her childhood experience.
8. What do we learn about The House on Mango Street?
A. It is quite popular among students.
B. It is the only book ever written by Cisneros.
C. It wasn't success as it was written in Spanish.
D. It won an award when Cisneros was twenty-nine.

The Hong Kong government, which holds a majority share, will continue to push for Disneyland's improvements, an official said.
The theme park, which opened on Sep. 12, 2005, did not achieve its expected number of visitors for the second year in a row. Secretary for Commerce and Economic Development Frederick Ma told lawmakers, “The first two years of Hong Kong Disneyland's operation were not satisfactory. The government will continue to persuade the park management to change business strategies and improve the park's operational efficiency.”
In its first year, Hong Kong Disneyland fell 400,000 short of its goal of 5.6 million visitors. Park officials have been secretive about second-year numbers, but the local media reports estimated up to 4.8 million visited the park in its second year.
“Even though we believe we do not have the responsibility to tell you the exact number of visitors, Hong Kong Disneyland has become one of the most visited theme parks in the world and a top attraction in Hong Kong since its opening two years ago,” Hong Kong Disneyland spokeswoman Glendy Chu said in an e-mailed response.
Hong Kong Disneyland, a major representative of Disney entertainment for mainland China, has been criticized for being too small, and lacking the rides of its international sister parks in Tokyo, Paris and the United States. It is also facing increased competition from Ocean Park, a local sea-based adventure park, and reports that Disney is planning to build a theme park in Shanghai could add further pressure to the Hong Kong site.
The Hong Kong government owns a 57 percent stake in the park and paid for most of the $3.5 billion construction cost, but is reportedly not interested in spending more public money on the park's expansion.
13. When did the theme park open?
________________________________________________
14. How many visitors are expected to be here?
________________________________________________
15. Who is also facing increased competition?
