Andy was born in China 17 years ago. In 2007, she went to the USA with her family. As a high school student, she has found many differences between Chinese and Americans：

About money

Americans like to spend more than they have, so many of them are always in debt(欠债). But Chinese usually spend less than they have, so many of them always have money left in the bank.

The American kids themselves make their own money. Most Chinese kids always ask their parents for money.

About education

Many American students have less homework to do while many Chinese students have much.

Many American girls take part in sports, dancing and singing groups while many Chinese girls take part in study groups.

Many American parents think it is unnecessary to send their children to an expensive school. It’s different in China. Many Chinese parents would try their best to send their children to expensive schools though their family isn’t rich enough.

About friends

Most American parents let their sons or daughters make friends by themselves. They never ask them about their friends while Chinese parents are usually interested in knowing more about their children’s friends, and usually stop them from staying out too late with friends.

试题分析：2007年，Andy随家人来到美国。在这里他发现了中国和美国之间存在着很大的差别。在金钱方面，美国人是多花少存自己挣，而中国人是少花多存啃父母；在教育方面，美国人作业少孩子多参加文艺小组，不上贵族学校，而中国人是作业成山，偏爱贵族学校；在交友方面，美国人让孩子自由结交，不探秘孩子的交友隐私，而中国父母乐此不疲了解孩子的朋友。这就是文化的差异。

【1】细节理解题。As a high school student, she has found many differences between Chinese and Americans：作为一名中学生，她发现中国和美国之间有很大的不同。这是短文的中心句，下文从金钱、教育、交友几个方面谈到了不同。所以Differences就是短文的中心词。

【2】细节理解题。But Chinese usually spend less than they have, so many of them always have money left in the bank.但是中国人支出的钱比拥有的钱少，因此很多中国人有钱存在银行里。这里的so强调结果，所以要填so。

【3】细节理解题。Americans like to spend more than they have, so many of them are always in debt(欠债). 美国人花钱比他们拥有的多，因此他们中许多人欠下外债。所以要此空填spend。

【4】细节理解题。Most Chinese kids always ask their parents for money.大部分中国孩子向父母要钱。

【5】细节理解题。The American kids themselves make their own money美国孩子自己挣钱。

【6】细节理解题。Many Chinese parents would do anything to send their children to expensive schools though their family isn’t rich enough.许多中国家长做他们力所能及的事情将孩子送到昂贵的学校，哪怕他们的家庭并不富裕。所以家长是竭尽全力do their best.

【7】细节理解题。Many American parents think there is no need to send their children to an expensive school.许多美国父母认为没有必要送他们的孩子到昂贵的学校。Necessary“必要的”。

【8】细节理解题。Many American girls take part in sports, dancing and singing groups while many Chinese girls take part in study groups.许多美国孩子参加运动、舞蹈、歌唱小组然而中国孩子参加学习小组。

【9】细节理解题。根据文中信息Many American girls take part in sports, dancing and singing groups ，可知此空应填sing。

【10】细节理解题。while Chinese parents usually enjoy knowing more about their children’s friends in many different ways, and usually stop them from staying out too late with friends.然而中国父母经常乐于用许多不同的方式了解孩子们的朋友，并经常阻止他们跟朋友们在外呆到很晚。Enjoy与be interested in意思相近。
