Signs in Chinese will be set up in public areas, such as airports, to help Chinese travelers, the Italian Government announced in late February,2005. Now many European countries are expected to follow this example.
Despite the different language, traveling across Europe has never been so simple. Just five years ago, if you wanted to visit Germany in the north and Spain in the south in one trip, you had to wait for weeks to apply for different visas(签证) from the two countries. You also needed a calculator(计算器) because both countries had different money.
Today, with a Schengen Visa issued(签发)by any member countries, you Can travel across 15 European countries without stopping. Since 2002, within most of the EU, there is now just one type of money called the Euro. The Euro was designed to be the only money in the EU, and already makes it easier to shop around. If you drive, your driving license and car insurance policy are valid (有效的) in the other countries. And you can use your mobile phone everywhere.
All the countries in the continent are melting(融于) into a united Europe under the EU. For Europeans and visitors the result is that it is more convenient to travel back and forth between the different countries.
What does the writer mean by saying" Now many European countries ,are expected to follow this ______. example" (Lines 2 - 3, Para. 1 )?
A.More signs will be set up for Chinese in other European countries.
B.Chinese is now an important language in Europe.
C.More Chinese people will go to travel across Europe.
D.More Europeans have a desire to know more about China.

The first is broadly the way Britain is at the moment: a mosaic of communities--Bangladeshi, Afro- Caribbean, Chinese or Jewish holding fast to a strong social identity, but lumbered also with a whole raft of benefits and disadvantages, most of them defined in economic terms l6. It's possible that will still be the pattern in 50 years time, but not very likely.
……
The alternative is a pick-and-mix social landscape. At the moment ethnic minorities are moving in different directions at different rates, with personal and social engagement across ethnic boundaries increasing all the time. One crude indicator is the level of mixed race marriage: one in five Bangladeshi and Pakistani men born in Britain now has a white wife, and one in five babies born in Britain has one Afro-Caribbean and one white parent.
This implies a Britain in which people will construct multiple identities defined by all sorts of factors: class, ethnicity, gender, religion, profession, culture and economic position. It won't be clear-cut. Not all ethnic minorities, or members of an ethnic minority, will be moving in the same direction or identifying the same issues at the heart of their identities. It's about deciding who you are, but also about how other people define you.
That's what will be at the heart of the next 50 years: enduring communities linked by blood through time versus flexible, constantly shifting identities. Identity won't be about where you have come from; it will be a set of values you can take anywhere that is compatible with full participation in whichever society you live in.
