The British people either don’t care or are kept in the dark regarding 31 country’s colonization overseas. When you talk to an average Britisher, he doesn’t seem to know 32 about his country’s glorious days as a result of colonization one or two generations ago. When Britain handed over Hong Kong in 1997, the Hong Kong press went to London and tried to get a sense of the popular mood by interviewing students and business people in the streets. Most of them didn’t know 33 handover event took place. Some expressed surprise to hear the question. Some even thought that Britain returned Hong Kong to Japan! For the British people to know: Hong Kong is a big deal 34 it’s a tiny dot on the map. HK was the most successful British colony, maybe the longest 35 ( keep ) too. Certainly, HK 36 ( bring ) a lot of money to the British Treasury, to the b
usiness elites, and to a lot of English civil servants who had worked there before. All you need is to look at the HK government 37 ( office ) records, the salary scales of English officials, the subsidized housing they got, and the 38 ( retire ) benefits they enjoyed. Remember the British colonial government in HK ran continuous huge surpluses every year, a clear sign that they were not spending the money _ 39 they earned it. The money was deposited in the British Treasury and major banks. If you are a responsible English citizen, you should ask where the surplus money went, if it didn’t go to 40 ( serve ) the people.

Most people who travel from China to the US find that，despite having studied English for years，they have to “re—learn” it upon arriving．
Words that we learned in English classes are not pronounced the same way here．To truly be part of the “melting pot”，fluency（流利）in English is not enough．You need an accent to stand out．
When I first came to the US for graduate school，1 was a nervous foreigner．I felt so out of place that I wanted to hide everything about me that was “different”．To talk like an American became one of my goals．
During my first term as a teaching assistant(TA)，my students complained（抱怨） they could not understand me．I learned later from a study that this complaint was common among US students with an international TA．It is called the “Oh, no!” syndrome (情绪、举动)：“Oh，no! Not another international TA，and not that accent again!’’
So I imitated（模仿）the way native speakers talk and，over time，I made such good progress that American friends started to praise my English as having “almost no accent’’．I took this as a sign of my success．Ever since．people have often mistaken me for someone from many places：the Midwest，the West Coast，China，Japan，South Korea．Most frequently，people think I am from California．
Suddenly，conformity (一致) was no longer a praise：If I talk like an American，am I still Chinese? If I lose my Chinese accent，do I also lose my cultural identity? Am I denying（否认）my past by being absorbed into（沉浸于）a new culture?
Now I realize that a person’s accent is a permanent（永久的）record of their past cultural experience and it is a mark of one’s experience and exposure to different cultures．
As a fourth-year student in the US，I am no longer a nervous foreigner．My nervousness has been replaced by a desire to hold on to my cultural origins．Now I consciously（有意识地）add some Chinese “accent” when I speak．I do not wish to speak “perfect” English because I am proud of who I am．
