In the U. S., speaking more than one language fluently is not very common except in Los Angeles, California.
The city has one of the largest population in the U. S. of young people between the ages of 18 and 34. This generation is often called millennials (新千年一代). More than half of millennials in Los Angeles are bilingual (双语的), which means they speak more than one language.
Maria Elena Burgos is cooking a Mexican breakfast. She says making Mexican food is just one of the many traditions in her home. Another is speaking Spanish to her children.
“We want them to be bilingual. We want to keep the Spanish somewhere in their learning too, not only at home.”
When Ms Burgos first came to the United States from Mexico, she learned English. She knew her children would learn English quickly. So she wanted them to speak Spanish at home and study the language at school.
She says being bilingual will give them more opportunities in the future. Knowing Spanish also means the children can talk with their relatives in Mexico.
“When we had our children, one of the decisions we as parents made was to name them with a name that was easily pronounced in English and Spanish.”
Elizabeth wants to know her family's culture.” “The culture-to go back to our roots because that's part of who we are.”
Monica wants to pass on the culture to her children.
“It's nice to know our culture and then to be able to pass it onto our children and grand- children and everyone to let them know where we come from.”
And, Monica says she does not speak only English and Spanish. She has even learned some Korean in school.
（1）.Which of the following is a tradition of Maria
A.Cooking breakfast for her relatives.
B.Talking with her children in Spanish.

A.She doesn't care where she comes from.
B.She looks forward to learning Spanish.
C.Everyone should know his own culture.
D.She doesn't like American culture.

A.It can give children more chances in the future.

As any plane passenger will confirm, a crying baby is almost impossible to ignore, no matter how hard you try. Now scientists believe they may have worked out why. A baby's cry pulls at the heartstrings(扣人心弦) in a way while other cries don't, researchers found.
Researchers found that a baby's cry can trigger unique emotional responses in the brain, making it impossible for us to ignore them—whether we are parents or not. Other types of cries, including calls of animals in great pain, fail to get the same response, suggesting the brain is programmed to respond specifically to a baby's cry.
A team of Oxford University scientists scanned the brains of 28 men and women as they listened to a variety of calls and cries. After 100 milliseconds — roughly the time it takes to blink(眨眼) — two parts of the brain that respond to emotion lit up. Their response to a baby's cry was particularly strong. The response was seen in both men and women—even if they had no children.
Researcher Dr Christine Parsons said, "You might read that men should just notice a baby and step over it and not see it, but it's not true. There is a special processing in men and women, which makes sense from an evolutionary(演化的) view that both men and women would be responding to these cries." The study was in people who were not parents, yet they are all responding at 100ms to these particular cries, so this might be a fundamental response present in all of us regardless of parental status.
Fellow researcher Katie Young said it may take a bit longer for someone to recognize their own child's cries because they need to do more "fine-grained analysis". The team had previously found that our reactions speed up when we hear a baby crying. Adults performed better on computer games when they heard the sound of a baby crying than after they heard recordings of adults crying.
（1）A baby's cry is difficult to ignore because it ________.
A.keeps on crying
B.cries harder than adults
C.causes people great pain
D.makes people feel strong emotions
（2）The underlined word "trigger" in Paragraph 2 probably means "________".
A.cause
B.remove
C.avoid
D.cure
（3）What may Christine Parsons agree to
A.A crying baby makes no sense to people without children.
B.Parents can hardly recognize their own babies' cries.
C.Men pay less attention to a crying baby than women.
D.Almost everyone makes certain response to a baby's cry.
（4）What's the main idea of the text
A.How to recognize different babies' cries.
B.Why you can't get a baby's cry out of your head.
C.Why a baby is easy and likely to cry.
D.How to prevent a baby crying.
28.阅读理解
A bright yellow “M” tells you that it's a McDonald's restaurant; we also associate the cheerful theme tune “I'm Lovin' It” with the famous US fast food.
A brand's music has a similar effect on its customers as its logo. “It appeals directly to the heart, where consumers' decisions are really made,” wrote Marketing Week.
This is probably why companies from around the world have recently focused more on building a “sonic (声音的) identity”.
An example is the software company Tencent QQ. Since 2014, this Chinese company has been trying to trademark (申请商标权) its “Di-Di-Di-Di-Di-Di” notification sound. The trademark was finally approved on Nov 15, which means that Tencent's “Di-Di-Di-Di-Di-Di” notification sound is now protected by law and can only be used by QQ.
Sound and music can also help tell stories. In Game of Thrones (《权力的游戏》) there are so many characters that it is difficult to memorize them all. So, they wrote melodies (旋律) specific to each family. The result is that characters do not only look familiar, but sound familiar too.
“I think a huge reason why sound inspires action is that, on an unconscious level, we are always listening,” Lauren Nagel, executive creative director at Pandora Media, told GeoMarketing. “You can close your eyes, but you can't shut your ears.”
（1）.What is the influence of a brand's music, according to Marketing Week
A.It creates a relaxing environment.
B.It helps to get customers' attention.
C.It makes the brand better known.
D.It encourages consumers to make quick decisions.
（2）.The example of Tencent QQ is mainly used to show ______.
A.how companies value their sounds and music
B.the importance of trademark protection
C.the lasting impact of a brand's music
D.what makes a good notification sound
（3）.How does music help Game of Thrones
A.It helps to create more impressive scenes.
B.It tells about the characters' personalities.
C.It suggests that important things are coming.
D.It makes the characters easier to remember.

Sport is not only physically challenging, but can also be mentally challenging. Criticism from coaches, parents and other teammates, as well as pressure to win can create too much anxiety or stress for young athletes. Stress can be physical, emotional, or psychological and research has indicated that it can lead to burnout. Burnout has been described as dropping or quitting of an activity that was at one time enjoyable.
The early years of development are critical years for learning about oneself. The sport setting is one where valuable experiences can take place. Young athletes can, for example, learn how to cooperate with others, make friends, and gain other social skills that will be used throughout their lives. Coaches and parents should be aware, at all times, that their feedback to youngsters can greatly affect their children. Youngsters may take their parents and coaches' criticisms to heart and find faults in themselves.
Coaches and parents should also pay attention that youth sport participation does not become work for children. The outcome of the game should not be more important than the process of learning the sport and other life lessons. In today's youth sport setting young athletes may be worrying more about who will win instead of enjoying themselves and the sport. Following a game many parents and coaches focus on the outcome and find faults with youngsters' performances. Positive support should be provided regardless of the outcome. Research indicates that positive support motivates and has a greater effect on learning than criticism. Again, criticism can create high levels of stress, which can lead to burnout.
（1）An effective way to prevent the burnout of young athletes is_____________.
A.to make sport less competitive
B.to increase their sense of success
C.to reduce their mental stress
D.to make sport more challenging
（2）According to the passage, sport is positive for young people in that_____________.
A.it can help them learn more about society
B.it enables them to find faults in themselves
C.it can provide them with valuable experiences
D.it teaches them how to set realistic goals for themselves
（3）Many coaches and parents are in the habit of criticizing young athletes_____________.
A.believing that criticism does good to their early development
B.without realizing criticism may destroy their self confidence
C.in order to make them remember life's lessons
D.so as to put more pressure on them
（4）According to the passage parents and coaches should_____________.
A.pay more attention to letting children enjoy sport
B.help children to win every game
C.train children to cope with stress
D.enable children to understand the positive aspect of sport
