As the United States continues to argue over the future of illegal immigrants traveling across its borders, I went on a journey to discover what hardships people crossing the border from Tijuana must face.

I worked at a soup kitchen, where I came into contact with many poor citizens who had recently arrived in Tijuana. One of the people I served was a Guatemalan (危地马拉人) named Juan, who washed cars for low pay in the US. After we spoke for 10 minutes, Juan introduced me to his girl- friend, a local stripper (脱衣舞女) who offered to give me a free lap dance (热舞) if I ever de-cided to visit the club across the street. I certainly didn't need to respond to this.

I also visited a shelter for the recently deported (驱逐) and those who have recently arrived in Tijuana from other Mexican states. Tijuana is home to more than 1.5 million people and is populat-ed by many migrants(移居者) who arrive and leave mostly for reasons of employment.

Having dinner at the shelter, I talked with those who planned to stay the night. Seated at my table was a man in his 40s. He had recently been deported from Los Angeles for not having the proper legal documentation (证明文件).The only belongings he carried with him were a few clothes and an album filled with pictures of his wife and three daughters in Los Angeles. I was surprised by how open he was in sharing his story. I feel bad for not learning his name before I left.

Returning to my country on the final day of my trip awakened a strange feeling inside me. I went on this trip with an open mind and heart and was given the chance to communicate with so many different people that I wouldn't have met in my everyday life. I felt guilty for taking so many things for granted, while people a few hundred miles away are already satisfied with the simpler things that they have.

1. From the passage above, we know that Tijuana is ________.

   A. a city in Mexico                               B. a country near US

   C. a place in the US                                      D. a city where Juan came from

2. People came to Tijuana and left because ________.

   A. they were ordered to leave by government     B. they could not find jobs

   C. they were not satisfied with their daily life     D. they had nowhere to live in but shelters

3. By "strange feeling" in the last paragraph, we can imply that the writer ______.

     A. feels guilty for the people living there

     B. may love and value what he has now

     C. does not realize the simple life other people have

     D. thinks the people there are satisfied with their life

4. What is probably the best title for the passage above?

     A. A Real Lesson.                    B. A Pleasant Journey.

     C. The Simpler, the Better.             D. What a Life.
