A
The smallcoastal town of Broome, in northwest Australia, is a remote village in the vastcountryside.
Thereare no traffic jams and hardly any roads. There is only the massive Australianwild land, where some houses are 500 miles apart and some driveways are 50miles long.
Thereseem to be only two main sources of entertainment out here: the sunset at thebeach and Sun Pictures.
SunPictures is a very different movie theater：The seats are park benches and deck chairs, but you’re also welcometo sit on the grass.
Itis the world’s oldest outdoor movie garden. Sun Pictures was built in 1916 onthe other side of the globe from Hollywood. All the big films were shipped hereand the lonely country was amazed.
Broomeresident Pearl Hamaguchi has never traveled far from home. But in the SunPictures chairs, under the deep blue night sky, she has been almost everywhere.
“Andwe came back excited about Gregory Peck,” she recalled.
Thisis one of the few places left in the world where you can see two sets of starsat the same time-----one set in the sky, the other in the film.
Eachnight, dozens of people from around the world line up at the old wooden stand,with no computer in sight, and buy their tickets to the latest films.
SunPictures is also a museum, exhibiting projectors(放映机) that date back to the silent films, a portrait gallery of thefamous people who never knew about this place---- even though they came hereall the time.
Everyonce in a while, I’m told, you might find a non-ticket holder in your seat.That’s why it’s always a good idea to shake out your chair to make sure thereare no spiders or scorpions.
“We’veonly had a couple of scorpion incidents but no one’s been stung yet,” saidAaron Mestemaker, a tourist visiting from Michigan.
SunPictures is a holy hall of movie history and a reminder that air conditioningand carpet are no match for grass and fresh air---even when the lizards stealthe scene.

In only two decades Asian Americans havebecome the fastest-growing US minority. As their children began moving upthrough the nation’s schools, it became clear that a new class of academicachievers was forming. Their achievements are reflected in the nation’s bestuniversities, where mathematics, science and engineering departments have takenon a decidedly Asian character. This special liking for mathematics and scienceis partly explained by the fact that Asian-American students who began theireducations abroad arrived in the US with a solid grounding in mathematics butlittle or no knowledge of English.They are also influenced by the promises of agood job after college. Asians feel there will be less unfair treatment inareas like mathematics and science because they will be judged moreobjectively. And the return on the investment in education is more immediate insomething like engineering than with an arts degree.
MostAsian-American students owe their success to the influence of parents who aredetermined that their children take full advantage of what the Americaneducational system has to offer. An effective measure of parental attention ishomework. Asian parents spend more time with their children than Americanparents do, and it helps. Many researchers also believe there is something inAsian culture that causes success, such as ideals that stress family values andemphasize education.
Bothexplanations for academic success worry Asian Americans because of fears thatthey feed a typical racial image. Many can remember when Chinese, Japanese andFilipino immigrants were the victims of social separation. Indeed, it was notuntil 1952 that laws were laid down giving all Asian immigrants the right tocitizenship.
55. While making great achievements atcollege, Asian-American students ________.
A.feel they are mistreated because of limited knowledge of English
B.are afraid that their academic successes bear a strong Asian character
C.still worry about unfair treatment in academic areas
D.generally feel it a shame to have to depend on their parents
56. What are the major factors thatdetermine the success of Asian Americans?
A.Solid foundation in basic mathematics and Asian culture.
B.Hard work and intelligence.
C.Hard work and a limited knowledge of English.
D.Asian culture and the American educational system.
57. Few Asian-American students major inhuman sciences mainly because_________.
A.their English is not good enough
B.they are afraid they might meet with unfair judgment in these areas
C.there is a wide difference between Asian and Western cultures
D.they know little about American culture and society
