A young girl called Ida in Sweden decided to travel to a place she hadn't seen for 22 years. She had a happy life until some kids asked, "Why don't you look like your mom?" Ida was sent to her adopted(收養(yǎng)) family in Sweden right after she was born. She really didn't know anything about her birthplace, Korea, except for some information she recently heard about her birthparents.

During her schooldays, she was often questioned about her looks. Ida considered herself a normal Swedish person. She tried to be part of the group in her school, but she found it hard. She was still seen as an outsider.

    As she grew older, she accepted(接受)who she  was. Still, she

wanted to find the missing piece of the puzzle (困惑). After finding out the place of her birthparents, Ida went to Korea in 2008. When she first arrived, she was surprised to see so many people who looked like her. However, apart from her looks, not much could be shared (分享) with others. She knew little about the culture, food, especially the language. Being in Korea wasn't always easy for her.

Perhaps Ida can never truly fit in either culture, but it's worth visiting her birthplace because she finally realized how special and different she is. She has two loving families, and most of all a better understanding of who she is. This helps her to have a positive view of her life.

1. Where was Ida born?

A. In Japan. B. In Sweden. C. In England.        D. In Korea.

2.Why was she seen as an outsider in Sweden?

A. Because of the culture. B. Because of her looks.

C. Because of the food. D. Because of the language.

3.What does the phrase "apart from" in Paragraph 3 mean?

A. except B. as for C. as well as D. besides

4.What can we learn from the passage?

A. Ida hadn't seen her birthparents for at least 22 years.

B. Ida found it easy for her to get used to living in Korea.

C. Ida still couldn't accept who she was after she went back to Sweden.

D. Ida realized she can't live a happy life either in Sweden or in Korea.
