immigration词根《Immigration词根》1. 单词概述单词：immigration含义：这个词主要表示移民（进入一个非自己祖国的国家定居）这个行为或者过程。
比如说，在新闻报道中经常会提到某个国家的immigration政策，就是关于人们进入这个国家居住的相关政策。
在日常生活中，当我们谈论到某个地区的人口变化时，immigration也是一个很关键的概念，像美国，就是一个有着大量immigration的国家。
2. 词根词缀解析词根：migr - ：来源于拉丁语，表示“移动”“迁移”。
词缀：im - ：这里表示“进入”“向内”的意思。
合成逻辑：将表示“进入”的“im - ”和表示“移动、迁移”的“migr - ”组合起来，“im + migr = immigration”，意思就是向内迁移，也就是从别的地方迁移进入某个地方，这就很符合“移民（进入某个国家）”这个含义了。
3. 应用短文与场景应用短文1：I was sitting in a coffee shop the other day, and I overheard an interesting conversation between two guys. One of them, let's call him Jack, was really passionate about the topic of immigration. "You know," Jack said to his friend Tom, "immigration is like a riverflowing into a new land. People from all over the world are the water in this river. They are driven by different reasons, just as the water is pushed by different forces." Tom nodded and replied, "Yeah, but don't you think it also causes some problems sometimes? I mean, like competition for jobs?" Jack shrugged and said, "Sure, but think about it this way. Immigration also brings in new ideas, new cultures. It's like adding new flavors to a big pot of soup. If a country is that big pot of soup, immigration makes it more delicious and diverse." I was really intrigued by their conversation. It made me realize how complex and important the concept of immigration is.中文翻译：前几天我坐在一家咖啡店里，无意中听到两个家伙之间一场有趣的对话。
澳洲移民的入境攻略介绍首先是关于入境卡澳洲入境卡（INCOMINGPASSENGERCARD），不懂英文的乘客会得到一张中文译文的澳洲入境卡，但是必须用英文填写。
里面包括了一些需要填写的个人信息，如姓名，护照号码，航班号码，澳洲的住址和一些简单的问题（都要求用英文填写）。
反面有三个栏目，你只要选择填写一个就能够。
如果你是新移民到澳洲就填写A栏，如果你是短期旅游参观或学习就填写B栏，如果你是澳洲居民返回澳洲就填写C栏。
注意：1）入境卡上的签名要同您护照上的签名一样。
2）澳洲境内的住址只填写您入境城市的饭店即可，如果您住在亲友家中，请填写亲友的地址。
3）如果随身携带超过1万澳币或相当于的任何外币，都必须要申报。
>>>澳洲入境需要申报的物品接下来看入境的步骤第一步：检疫（QUARANTINE）如果您是直接从香港，台湾和大陆入境的游客，能够直接通过，不用检查。
如果是由非洲，美洲来澳洲的客人就必须检疫。
第二步：入境检查（IMMIGRATION）主要是由移民局的官员检查护照，签证和入境登记卡，并询问一些简单的问题，如来澳洲的目的？计划停留多久？等等。
如果您不懂或略懂英文但无法准确表达自己的意思，入境检查一般会安排免费的翻译服务。
不要猜谜似的回答问题，以免造成意外的误会。
近几年非法移民潮猖獗，澳洲的入境检查也越来越严格。
当检查人员在您的护照上盖上入境章时，就表示一切无误，核准入境。
第三步：领取行李（BAGGAGECLAIM）在领取托运的行李时，要核实自己的行李，以免拿错。
如果行李有损坏或未到，请直接联络机场行李处。
第四步：海关验关（CUSTOM）一般情况下澳洲海关对海外游客入关检查相对松一些，常用口头报关，检查人员问：ANYTHINGTOUDECU？（有任何东西申报吗？）如果没有物品申报，就回答：NO，SIR（没有）。
但是如果带有必须申报的物品而没有申报，处罚是非常严厉的。
含肉类的食品（无论什么包装），植物种子，蛋类，动植物都是严禁带入澳洲的。
