“Lng time n see.” is a very interesting sentence. When I first read this sentence frm an American friend’s e-mail, I laughed. I thught it was a perfect example f Chinglish.
Obviusly, it is a wrd-by-wrd literal translatin (直译) f the Chinese greeting with wrng English grammar! Later n, my friend tld me that it is a standard American greeting. I was t surprised t believe her. Her wrds were unbelievable at all. S I did research n Ggle.cm. T my surprise, there are ver 60 thusand web pages cntaining “Lng time n see.” Thugh it is srt f infrmal, it is part f the language that Americans use daily. Interestingly, if yu type this phrase in Micrsft Wrd, the sftware will tell yu that the grammar needs t be crrected.
Nbdy knws the rigin f this Chinglish sentence. Sme peple believe that it came frm Charlie Chan’s mvies. In the 1930s, Hllywd mviemakers successfully created a wrldwide famus Chinese detective named “Charlie Chan” n wide screens. Detective Chan liked t teach Americans sme Chinese wisdm by quting Cnfucius. “Lng time n see.” was his symbl. Sn after Charlie Chan, “Lng time n see.” became a ppular expressin in America thanks t the ppularity f these mvies.
Sme schlars cmpare America t a huge melting pt. All kinds f cultures are mixed in the pt tgether and they change the clr and taste f each ther. Language is usually the first thing t be influenced in the mixed pt.
Yu can have sme examples frm ther cuntries, such as pizza frm Italian, sushi frm Japanese, and déjà vu frm French etc. There is a lng list! Since Americans admire Chinese culture mre and mre nwadays, I believe mre Chinese wrds will becme American English in the future. In this way, the American’s melting pt keeps adding richness.
8.Why did the writer himself feel surprised?
A.“Lng time n see.” is a Chinglish expressin.
B.He’s fund Americans use the expressin frmally every day.
C.S many literal translatins f expressins are used in America.
D.“Lngtime n see.” is used as a standard American English greeting.

A.A large biling cker.B.Crss-cultural mixture.
C.A kind f cked dish.D.Cnfucius’s famus wrds.
10.What can be inferred frm the passage?
A.Detectives translated the phrase “Lng time n see.”
B.Cultures cannt be changed in the huge melting pt.
C.Hllywd prbably made “Lng time n see.” ppular.
D.The huge melting pt greatly affects all kinds f languages.
