A
Lunar New Year used to be a day-
long 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 celebra-
tion lasted throughout the day and late in-
to 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 cele-
bration 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 of-
ten 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

One of the main challenges facing
many countries is how to maintain their
identity in the face of globalization and
the growing multi-language trend."One
of the main reasons for economic failure

in many African countries is the fact that,
with a few important exceptions,mother-
tongue education is not practiced in any of
the independent African states."said
Neville Alexander,Director of the Pro-
ject for the Study of Alternative Educa-
tion in South Africa at the University of
Cape Town.
In response to the spread of English
and the increased multi-language trends
arising from immigration,many countries
have introduced language laws in the last
decade.In some,the use of languages
other than the national language is
banned in public spaces such as advertis-
ing posters.One of the first such legal
provisions(规定)was the 1994“Toubon
law"in France,and the idea has been
copied in many countries since then.Such
efforts to govern language use are often
considered as futile by language experts,
who are well aware of the difficulty in
.2

controlling fashions in speech and know
from research that language switching
among bilinguals is a natural process.
It is especially difficult for native
speakers of English to understand the de-
sire to maintain the“purity”of a language
by law.Since the time of Shakespeare,
English has continually absorbed foreign
words into its own language.English is
one of the most mixed and rapidly chan-
ging languages in the world,but that has
not been a barrier to acquiring superiority
and power.Another reason for the failure
of many native English speakers to under-
stand the role of the state regulation is
that it has never been the Anglo-Saxon
way of doing things.English has never
had a state-controlled authority for the
language,similar,for example,to the
Academic Francaise in France.
The need to protect national langua-
ges is,for most western Europeans,a re-
cent phenomenon-especially the need to
ensure that English does not unnecessari-
ly take over too many fields.Public com-
munication,education and new ways of
communication promoted by technology,
may be key fields to defend.
5.Neville Alexander believes that
A.mother-tongue education is not prac-
ticed in all African countries
B.globalization has resulted in the eco-
nomic failure of Africa
C.globalization has led to the rise of
multi-language trend
D.lack of mother-tongue education can
lead to economic failure
6.The underlined word“futile'”(in Para
graph 2)most probably means"
”
A.workable
B.practical
C.useless
D.unnecessary

7.What can we infer from the last para-
graph?
A.English has taken over fields like
public communication and educa-
tion.
B.Many aspects of national culture are
threatened by the spread of Eng-
lish.
C.Most language experts believe it is
important to promote a national
language.
D.Europeans have long realized the
need to protect a national language.

Then Misha opened a bag containing the pieces of
Michael's shirt.She let Gandalf smell them.Gandalf
obeyed,then he looked up at Misha,waiting for her com-
mand.Misha said,“Find!boy!”Head up,Gandalf quickly
set off,followed by Misha and her team.Gandalf wound its
way along paths,switching from side to side.It was raining
lightly,which added to his difficulty of picking up
Michael's smell.Having kept searching for hours,Gandalf
was wet all over,breathing heavily and looking exhausted.
The rescue team were about to stop when Gandalf
suddenly slowed down nearby a ruined castle.With diffi-
culty he climbed over a damaged stone wall and raised his
head,barking loudly at Misha.That was an exciting signal
and the team rushed over.There lay a boy,still alive,his
leg stuck between the stones.Though pale and weak,Mi-
chael was recognized at once and instantly saved from be-
tween the stones.Seeing him uninjured,everyone sighed
with relief.Thanks to Gandalf,the lost boy was found be-
fore it was too late.Misha touched Gandalf gently,saying
proudly,.“You're great,boy!”
