17、 the course website for updates. BThe Feast of the Seven Fishes is an Italian-American tradition that dates back to an immigration (移民) wave in the 1900s. The Italian American tradition of the “Feast of the Seven Fishes” has appeared in movies and recently in the hit show The Bear. But talking of th

18、e origin, youll get many different answers. The Feast of the Seven Fishes is a dear tradition to many Italian Americans who enjoy at least seven different seafood dishes on Christmas Eve.A vast majority of Italian immigrants to the United States were from rural Southern Italy at the turn of the 19th

19、 century. They came to America because there were jobs from building railroads to skyscrapers. Friends and families found success and brought their loved ones to the U.S. Some say fish was chosen for the Feast because it was plentiful for impoverished families in Southern Italy. Others say the sea r

20、epresented Italian Americans connection between their old and new homes.Writer and director Robert Tinnell made a comic in 2004 about his experience with the Feast of the Seven Fishes, which he later made into a 2019 movie. Growing up in North Central West Virginia, he fondly remembers his great gra

21、ndmother organizing the Feast. After she died, his grandfather and other men in the family took over. That particular manly activity is something that the first Italian immigrants would have also performed out of necessity： men came to America first, without their wives and daughters.However, knowle

22、dge about where to shop, when to prepare, how to cook, the history behind the meal and family traditions soon became the responsibility of mothers to pass down to their daughters, says Di Giovine, a professor at West Chester University of Pennsylvania. They are also likely the ones who have the fina

23、l say in making changes to recipes.

A Special CelebrationCWith artificial intelligence (AI) and robotic technology improving at impressive rates, there are some who worry that theres a risk of artistic a

26、nd creative people being replaced. A new study by the Korean Institute of Industrial Technology, however, is showing exactly why that cant and shouldnt happen. It all started when the South Korean company posed this question： Can robots replace conductors?Over a year ago, work to develop automaton (

27、自动化) began. At first, it was designed like a machine, and didnt live up to expectations. Then the company sought ways to improve it. In the end, it was given two arms with joints to copy wrists and elbows, allowing it to move a stick similarly to how a human conductor would move it. It was named the

28、 EverR 6 robot, and stands at 1.8 meters. It was finally time to figure out how it could follow through on its musical role.“We got involved in this project to see how far robots can go in more creative fields like the arts, and what the challenges are,” Dong-w o ok Lee, a senior researcher at the K

29、orean Institute of Industrial Technology said.In order to pull this off, Dong-wook Lee cooperated with the Busan Philharmonic Orchestra. The 12-minute piece they planned to perform, “Feel” by Il-hoon Son, was created specifically for this event. It was created with the strengths of both EverR 6 and

30、the human conductor, Soo-yeol Choi, in mind.To pull off this impressive performance, the robot was preprogrammed to conduct through 30 cycles of beat patterns. Meanwhile, it was up to the human conductor to lead the orchestra in creating an improvisational (即兴的) score, adding depth to the otherwise

31、planned piece.Together, they pulled off a masterful performance that the audience seemed more than happy to have had the opportunity to witness it firsthand!With the concert having gone so well, this is only the start of EverR 6. Still, no matter the improvements theyre able to make to this Android

32、robot, the human conductor isnt concerned about being replaced.“Lets leave the accuracy to the robots,” Soo-yeol Choi said, “but the musical and artistic aspects to a human conductor.”28.What is paragraph 2 mainly about?A. The function of the EverR 6 robot.B. The development of the EverR 6 robot.C.

33、The EverR 6 robots role as a conductor.D. The difficulty in designing the EverR 6 robot.29.What can be learned about “Feel”?A. It is a piece familiar to the audience.B.

He led the improvisational section of the performance.D. He was the main conductor of the Busan Philharmonic Orchestra.31.What is Soo-yeol Chois attit

35、ude towards EverR 6?A. Unclear.B. Uncaring.C. Supportive.D. Doubtful.DCampaigners opposing the building of new wind farms often point to the possibility that the blades of wind turbines (涡轮机) can cut careless birds to bits. No one doubts that wind turbines kill some birds. But a new analysis of Amer

36、ican data, published in Environmental Science & Technology, suggests the numbers have little impact on bird populations. Wind power has expanded dramatically in America over the past 20 years. Many studies have analysed the effects in specific locations or on specific bird species. But few have look

37、ed at the effects on wildlife at the population level. Dr. Katovich, an economist at the University of Geneva, used the Christmas Bird Count, a citizen-science project. Volunteers count birds they spot over Christmas, and the society edits the numbers. Its records stretch back over a century. Dr. Ka

38、tovich assumed, reasonably, that if wind turbines harmed bird populations, then the numbers seen in the Christmas Bird Count would drop in places where new turbines had been built. He combined bird population and species maps with the locations and construction dates of all wind turbines in America,

39、 with the exceptions of Alaska and Hawaii, between 2000 and 2020. He found that building turbines had no obvious effect on bird populations. That reassuring finding held even when he looked specifically at large birds that many people believe are particularly easy to be struck. Dr. Katovich didnt li

40、mit his analysis to wind power alone. He also examined oil-and-gas extraction (提取). Like wind power, this has boomed in America over the past decades. Comparing bird populations to the locations of new gas wells revealed an average 15% drop in bird numbers when new wells were drilled, probably due t

41、o a combination of noise, air pollution and the disturbance of rivers and ponds that many birds rely upon. When drilling happened in places designated by experts as “important bird areas”, bird numbers instead dropped by 25%. Such places are typically migration hubs, feeding grounds or breeding loca

42、tions. Wind power, in other words, not only produces far less planet-heating gas than fossil fuels. It appears to be significantly less damaging to wildlife, too. Wind turbines might look dramatic, but their effect on birds isnt.32.What does a new analysis find about wind farms?A. They take the live

43、s of careless birds.B. They improve birds living conditions.C. They do little harm to bird populations.D. Their harmful effects on birds vary a lot.33.How did Dr. Katovich make the finding?A. By counting bird numbers in different locations.B. By relating bird numbers to turbines distribution.C. By r

44、esearching perfect places to build turbines.D. By studying the decline of birds near turbines.34.What contributes most to the drop of bird numbers?A. The wide spread of wind turbines.B. The over-development of farming.C. The lack of environmental concern.D. The drilling of wells for oil and gas.35.W

45、hat can be a suitable title for the text?A. Wind Turbines and Birds Can Co-existB. Oil Drilling Shares the Sky With BirdsC. Several Factors Lead to Bird DeclineD.
