When my barber fr mre than 45 years, Deminick, retired earlier this year, I was in a fix. I can nt drive, and nly ne ther barbershp was walkable frm my huse in Freeprt. Dminick represented mre than a gd haircut. Fr me, he was a mving landmark and a lng traditin. He always asked abut my bys, nw 44 and 49,and admired ur family hair.
I’d walk by his empty shp n Grand Avenue in Baldwin, hping anther barber wuld mve in. Otherwise, the ne ther shp in the same area available t me was small, like Dminick’s, but uninviting, ften empty, with n elderly men r mthers with kids. Dminick’s was a ne-man peratin and ften had custmers waiting.
But my luck changed - I thught. There appeared a barber ple abve Dminick’s! Red, white and blue! A bright sign said BARBER. Open fr business! But a large ntice in the windw displayed the barber’s name-Alicia Zayala. A wman!
My heart sank. As a man, I didn’t want a chemical hair treatment. I wanted a haircut! Ging t a female barber wasn't my cup f tea. I believe in the equality f the tw genders (性别) and I respect wmen. But I didn’t feel cmfrtable with a female hairdresser.
S I chse the male barber with empty chairs in Baldwin. He was yung and cnfident. With big mvements, he cut my hair. I felt like grass under a lawnmwer (割草机)．It was my quickest haircut since 1952．It wasn’t bad;he had made the cut. But he wasn’t my ld barber.
When my hair nce again grew ver my hearing aid, I wndered whether I shuld try the lady barber. Why nt? My hair wuld grw back. The new barber was middle-aged, silent at first but utging. Small talk t break the ice turned int a chat. Alicia was pleasant. She had Dminick's cncentratin that I had taken fr granted (视为当然). I cughed. She rushed t get me a hard candy. It was the lngest haircut I’d ever had, but she matched Dminick’s care and skill. I was very pleased.
24．Hw did the authr feel after Dminick’s retirement annuncement?
A．A bit wrried.B．Quite angry.C．Really relieved.D．Deeply hurt.
25．Why did the authr chse the yung barber at first?
A．The barber had a small barbershp, like Dminick’s, but uninviting.
B．The barber was knwn fr his quick haircuts.
C．The authr was used t being served by male barbers.
D．The authr liked chatting with the barber’s elderly custmers.
26．Which f the fllwing culd be used t describe Alicia Zayala?
A．Cnsiderate.B．Humrus.C．Adventurus.D．Impatient.
27．What des the authr’s stry tell us?
A．Sweet are the uses f adversity.B．Cnstant drp wears away a stne.
C．Never judge a bk by its cver.D．Practice makes perfect.

When I mentined t sme friends that we all have accents (口音), mst f them prudly replied, “Well, I speak perfect English/Chinese/etc.” But this kind f misses the pint.
Mre ften than nt, what we mean when we say smene “has an accent” is that their accent is different frm the lcal ne, r that prnunciatins are different frm ur wn. But this definitin (定义) f accents is limiting and culd give rise t prejudice. Funnily enugh, in terms f the language study, every persn speaks with an accent. It is the regular differences in hw we prduce sunds that define ur accents. Even if yu dn’t hear it yurself, yu speak with sme srt f accent. In this sense, it’s pintless t pint ut that smene “has an accent”. We all d!
Every persn speaks a dialect (方言), t. In the field f language study, a dialect is a changed frm f a language that is featured by its variatins (变化) f structure, phrases and wrds. Fr instance, “Yu gt eat r nt?” (meaning “Have yu eaten?”) is an acceptable and understd questin in Singapre Oral English. The fact that this expressin wuld cause a standard American English speaker t take pause desn’t mean that Singapre Oral English is “wrng” r “ungrammatical”. The sentence is well-frmed and clearly cmmunicative, accrding t native Singapre English speakers’ slid system f grammar. Why shuld it be wrng just because it’s different?
We need t mve beynd a narrw idea f accents and dialects — fr the benefit f everyne.
Language differences like these prvide insights int peple’s cultural experiences and backgrunds. In a glbal age, the way ne speaks is a distinct part f ne’s identity (身份). Mst peple wuld be happy t talk abut the cultures behind their speech. We’d learn mre abut the wrld we live in and make friends alng the way.
28．What des the authr think f his/ her friends’ respnse in paragraph 1?
A．It reflects their self cnfidence.
B．It reflects their language levels.
C．It misses the pint f cmmunicatin.
D．It misses the real meaning f accents.
29．Why des the authr use the example f Singapre Oral English?
A．T supprt the use f dialects.
B．T shw the imprtance f dialects.
C．T crrect a grammatical mistake.
D．T highlight a traditinal methd.
30．What des the authr recmmend us t d in the last paragraph?
A．Learn t speak with yur lcal dialect.
B．Lk fr an fficial definitin f accents.
C．Appreciate the value f accents and dialects.
D．Separate ur lcal languages frm thers’.
31．What can be a suitable title fr this passage?
A．Everyne Has an Accent
B．Accents Imprve Our Identities
C．Dialects Lead t Misunderstanding
D．Standard English Is at Risk

D yu knw there are sunds prduced by plants? Have yu ever wndered what animals are talking abut? With the develpment f AI, we may be able t understand their languages!
In Prfessr Karen Bakker’s new bk, The Sunds f Life: Hw Digital Technlgy Is Bringing Us Clser t the Wrlds f Animals and Plants, she talks abut hw AI and ther technlgies are helping us t translate (翻译) and understand animals’ and plants’ wrds.
All arund the animal wrld, there are sunds that we can hardly pick up (接收到) and decipher (破译). Elephants, fr example, talk with each ther using infra-sund (次声), which cannt be heard by human ears. Cral (珊瑚) in the cean als sends sund waves t lead (带领) baby cral t safer areas t grw. Baby cral “listens” fr the sunds and finds its way t the right place. This is surprising as cral desn’t have any ears! Scientists have placed (放置) machines int these envirnments t pick up the sunds humans cannt hear.
After the sunds are recrded, AI can study their meaning. Fr example, Isracli researchers used AI t translate bats’ (蝙蝠) 15,000 calls. They fund that mre than 60 percent were arguments abut such things: fd, ways f sleeping, getting int persnal space, and unwanted curtship (求偶).
Technlgies can nt nly understand the animals but cmmunicate back t them. Fr example, bees use dances t cmmunicate. S a research team in Germany put the bee language AI system int a rbt bee. They asked the rbt t create a set f dance mves t tell the bees where they can find their fd.
Researchers said the technlgy culd smeday help disabled peple t cmmunicate. It might als help scientists understand hw animals see the wrld.
32．Hw des the writer lead int the tpic?
A．By listing facts.B．By ffering ideas.
C．By asking questins.D．By giving examples.
33．What can we learn frm Karen Bakker’s new bk?
A．What rle AI plays in prtecting animals.
B．What makes it hard fr us t take care f plants.
C．Hw animals and plants cmmunicate with the help f AI.
D．Hw technlgies help us understand the vices f nature.
34．What des the underlined wrd “this” refer t (指的是)?
A．Baby cral “listens” fr the sunds.
B．Cral desn't have any ears
C．Machines can be used t pick up sunds
D．Cral can find safer areas t grw by itself.
35．What is the researchers’ attitude (态度) twards the future f the AI technlgy?
A．Unclear.B．Hpeless.
C．Dubtful (怀疑的).D．Supprtive.
