As soon as news of the discovery of gold in California reached China in 1849, there was an increase in the numbers of Chinese immigrants to the west coast of the United States. They came because wars, floods and famine had made earning a livelihood difficult in China.

Why did Chinese immigrants come to California?

-The Chinese came to California because of the wars, floods and famine.

How do you think the Chinese heard about the discovery of gold?

-I think that the Chinese was heard about the gold that why they came to California.

Chinese workers on the railroad were fed a Chinese diet including dried oysters, dried fish, sweet rice, crackers, dried bamboo, salted cabbage, Chinese sugar, dried fruits and vegetables, dried seaweed, Chinese bacon, dried mushrooms, peanut oil, tea, rice, pork, and chicken.  This was a much healthier diet than the beef, beans, bread, butter and potatoes of white workers at the time.  The Chinese also drank barrels of hot tea.   White workers, instead, would drink cold water.  Too often this water was contaminated and caused illness among the workers.

Literal Question:

What type of food that Chinese made it?

Figurative Question:

What do you that how much do the Chinese get pay?

Chinese workers on the railroad worked six days a week from sunrise to sundown.  They were paid $1 each day.  Three thousand Chinese were hired to work on the railroad.

In 1867 two thousand Chinese workers went on strike.  They demanded a raise to $40 each month.  The strike ended in one week, and the Chinese workers were forced to go back to work without a raise in their pay.

Literal Question:

How much they got pay for each day?

Figurative Question:

If you are the Chinese worker how do you feel if you get paid $40 each month?

The typical Chinese gold seeker was in his late teens or early twenties, male, single, and had not been to school. His goal was to return to China as soon as he had earned a lot of money. He did not intend to stay in California and he continued his traditions, clothing, language, food and clothing.  He stayed in places where there were other Chinese. The largest and most important of these communities was San Francisco's Chinatown.

Literal Question:

 Why his want to return to China?

Figurative Question:

 If you was the Chinese do you return back to China?
