Lunar New Year used to be a daylong celebration for us. My parents tried really hard to recreate the season for my sisters and me here in America. On New Year’s day, my family, including all my uncles, aunts, and cousins, dressed in new clothes, gathered at my grandma's house. Kids were pulled out of school, and adults took the day off. The celebration lasted throughout the day and late into the night, with one tradition following another.
Fast-forward to 2019: My grandma has passed away, the adults are elderly, and the kids have grown up and are living their own life. The Lunar New Year celebration is no longer as elaborate (精心计划的) as it used to be. As we melt into American culture, the “olden ways”, as we call them, have fallen away. Life seems to have got busier and much more complex, but I often feel something is missing.
For us first-generation kids, it is often easier to let go of the traditions and customs of our parents’. They don’t mean as much to us as they do for them. At the same time, they are still a part of our culture. I realized that the diaspora (流散) of young Asian Americans in the United States is not unique to me. It is an ongoing inner struggle that we all wrestle with. My Asian features and skin color do not entirely define who I am. I am as much a “hamburger” guy as a “rice” individual. I can’t quite fully claim that I am an American and not fully Asian. There isn’t really a check box that I can mark. I am Chinese-Vietnamese-Asian-American.
I now have two little boys. It saddens me to think they will never be able to experience what my sisters and I did as little kids during this holiday. Recently, for the first time, I’ve hung up Lunar New Year decorations around the house and replaced our Christmas wreath (花环) on the front door with decorative firecrackers. In a way, my sons are forcing me to slow down and explore my heritage.
I suppose sometimes we need to look back in order to gain clarity on the path ahead.
24. What do we know about the author’s family in Paragraph 1?
A. They lived a very hard life in America.
B. They respected the old and loved the young.
C. They stuck to the traditions of Lunar New Year.
D. They paid little attention to children’s education.
25. What is the author’s attitude towards the disappearance of the “olden ways”?
A. Slightly disappointed.
B. Tolerant.
C. Very optimistic.
D. Uncaring.
26. Why does the author mention “hamburger” and “rice” in Paragraph 3?
A. To suggest various choices.
B. To indicate diverse identities,
C. To clarify different customs,
D. To compare personal tastes.
27. What message does the author seem to convey in the text?
A. We should strengthen family bonds.
B. We are what we choose to be.
C. Passing down family traditions matters.
D. Knowing yourself is a lifelong process.
C
Earth is in the middle of an insect crisis, with thousands of species declining over the past several decades. Scientists have often blamed habitat loss or pesticide (杀虫剂) use. But a new study of butterflies in the western United States has found that warmer fall weather may be an equal, if not more, of a factor.
Over the past four decades, more than 450 butterfly species have declined at an average rate of nearly 2 percent a year, according to a study published in Science. It’s already known that the western monarch butterfly has plummeted in population by 99.9 percent and was recently denied protection by the U.S. Endangered Species Act. But the study revealed lesser-known species, like the Boisduval’s blue and California’s state insect, the California dogface butterfly, are heading toward extinction.
“The influence of climate change is driving those declines, which makes sense because they’re so widespread,” says study leader Matthew Forster. To reach their troubling findings, the researchers combined databases of butterfly counts conducted by scientists and amateur insect enthusiasts at 72 locations in the western U.S. To focus on the contribution of climate change, the researchers made sure to include locations that were relatively undisturbed by agriculture and human development to limit the influence of other threats to butterflies such as habitat loss and pesticides.
More than 200 cities across the U.S. are experiencing warmer fall seasons. In Arizona, for instance, fall temperatures have risen by 0.2 degree Fahrenheit every decade since 1895. As for why warming falls are so harmful, it may be connected to butterflies’ hibernation-like diapause (像冬眠般的滞育) in the fall. Warmer temperatures could be forcing the insects, most of which live around a year, to stay awake longer and starve. In other words, they’re “getting old and fragile and dying sooner.”
Given that butterflies are key pollinators (传粉者), such declines predict bigger problems for plants and even whole ecosystems, Forster adds. “The climate effects will almost certainly affect many other insects, including bees.” And these effects will “damage” efforts to protect and restore butterfly habitat.
28. What does the underlined word “plummeted” mean in Paragraph 2?
A. Recovered slowly.
B. Decreased sharply.
C. Escaped suddenly.
D. Evolved rapidly.
29. What did the researchers do in Paragraph 3?
A. They ruled out the effects of human activities.
B. They tried to protect the habitat of butterflies.
C. They refused to use amateurs’ science data.
D. They identified other threats to butterflies.
30. How do warming falls affect butterflies?
A. They affect butterflies’ natural life cycle.
B. They slow down butterflies' aging process.
C. They cause butterflies to lose more habitats.
D. They force butterflies to compete for survival.
31. What is the main purpose of the text?
A. To discuss the importance of butterfly species.
B. To suggest a way to fight against climate change.
C. To introduce new methods of studying butterflies.
D. To present a new factor in a species population decline.
D
Synthetic voices (合成语音) are everywhere. They feed us direction in the morning, guide us through phone calls by day and broadcast the news on smart speakers at night. And as the technology used to make them improves, these voices are becoming more and more human-sounding. This is the final frontier in synthetic speech: copying not just what we say exactly but how we say it.
Rupal Patel heads a research group at Northeastern University that studies speech prosody (韵律)— the changes in pitch, loudness and duration that we use to convey intention and emotion through voice. “Sometimes people think of it as the icing (糖霜) on the cake,” she explains. “You have the message, and I really think it’s the scaffolding (脚手架) that gives meaning to the message itself.”
Patel says she grew interested in prosody after finding it was the only element of vocal communication that seemed to be available to people with some kinds of severe speech disorders. These patients were able to make expressive sounds even if they could not speak clearly. In 2014 Patel founded a company to create custom synthetic voices for nonspeaking individuals. VocaliD has since expanded to commercial brands and influencers.
Synthetic speech has come a long way over the years. People have been trying to synthesize speech since at least the 18th century, when an Austro-Hungarian inventor built a rough copy of the human vocal tract (声道) that could pronounce entire phrases clearly.
Current machine-learning techniques can model human speech, and complete with awkward pauses and sounds made by lips. Still, training on thousands of samples per second is prohibitively expensive for most real-world systems. Researchers, including those at VocaliD, are continually employing newer and more efficient methods. But even as the remaining gaps between human and synthetic speech are steadily closing, truly lifelike prosody continues to fail to meet the requirement of even the most complicated systems. Maybe what's still missing requires machines not only to imitate humans but also to feel like us.
32. What is the challenge for current synthetic voices?
A. Recognizing speakers.
B. Saving human speech.
C. Conveying intention and emotion.
D. Getting speakers to become smarter. noted boyale
33. Why did Rupal Patel set up VocaliD?
A. To help patients to make expressive sounds. °18 2911iq
B. To expand his commercial brands and influence.
C. To develop various elements for synthetic voices.
D. To build voices for people with speech disorders.
34. What can be inferred about synthetic speech?
A. It exactly equals human speech.
B. It is on the way to being perfect.
C. It can bridge gaps between people.
D. It contains more beautiful prosody. bl
35. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A. Synthetic Voices Will Replace Human Speech
B. VocaliD Has Found a Cure for Speech Disorders
C. Machines Teach People to Communicate Well
D. Artificial Intelligence Is Good at Sounding Human

据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

选项中有两项为多余选项。

There are many things that you can do to try and prepare for your very first concert. Want to find out more? Simply look below.
One of the first things you need to know before you go to your very first concert is that it can be very tiring. You have to wait in very long lines and you will need to stand for the whole night too. 36______ Try and make sure that you wear comfortable shoes.
What really matters is that you have to be familiar with the band, as this will help you to maximise the amount of fun you can have when at the concert. 37______ There are many ways that you can do this, and there are even sites that are devoted to their setlists as well. Remember that singing along with friends around you is easily one of the best experiences.
Also, you may find people can get pretty lively when you are at a rock or heavy metal concert. Sometimes people will
knock or elbow you, but you have to remember that they are not doing this on purpose. They may just be getting carried away: 38______ Most of the time, people who go to concerts are lovely but be prepared for a surplus of movement when you get deep into the crowd.
39______ Wave your arms around, clap your hands and maybe sway a little. Try and enjoy yourself and forget about how tired you may be for a moment. If you can do this then you know that you can have the best time ever.
Finally, take some pictures. It doesn’t matter what experience you are looking for, because you’ll want to remember your very first concert if you can. 40______ If you are concerned about damaging your good camera, then invest in a disposable camera.
A. Try and keep your cool.
B. Be low-key and try not to panic.
C. Listen to the songs that are being played beforehand.
D. You need to make sure that you do your bit to participate.
E. Memories may go away, but pictures are easily here to stay.
F. This is why it is so important that you dress with comfort in mind.
G. You might as well put away your camera in case it gets broken in the crowd.

I 45______ my own personal struggles, I had to 46______ for everything and I 47______ even $3 was a lot for me at that time, and probably for her too. 48______, it wasn’t my first thought when she had asked me about buying her flowers. My first thought was that I didn’t have the 49______ but not as an excuse.
When I went to the 50______ to pay with my card, I asked for $3 cash out first. The staff member 51______ me about the $3. Feeling 52______, I tried to remember the money I had in my account when she pressed the button to process it.

I was 56______ that she then randomly asked me if I wanted 57______ I guessed she was embarrassed and said, “No. They are worth the money. Thank you.”
As I walked away, I was second guessing I could have offered her more. But when I turned back to her, she 58 ______ and thanked me again.
