题目

阅读理解 Yaniza Doré was born and raised in New York City in a bilingual (双语的) family. Her mother is a native Spanish speaker, and her father's native language is English. She has loved singing since she was a little girl. In 2013, when Yaniza was in college, she began posting weekly YouTube covers (翻唱) of songs and performing live in New York. Initially her covers were in English, but over time she began to sing in Spanish as well, combining her love of music with her bilingual abilities. She says singing in Spanish has helped her stand out on YouTube and reach wider audiences than before. In addition to covers, Yaniza has written and recorded a number of original songs, primarily in English. But this year, she took her identity as a bilingual singer to the next. level by writing her first original song in Spanglish,"Contigo". The song mixes English and Spanish lyrics (歌词) into each other, creating a unique and distinctive Spanglish song. The songwriting process involved musical inspiration mixed with thoughtful language skills. This may sound like an impossible task, but Yaniza says it came naturally to her. For original songs, one challenge is making sure the Spanish lyrics don't unintentionally cause offence to anyone. Yaniza is careful to make sure she's saying things appropriately. Regardless of the challenge, Yaniza finds being a bilingual singer-and a musician in general-extremely rewarding, even though she has to face both the positives and negatives of online comments. "I'm always confused when people say mean things. How could they say that?"Yaniza says. "But I'm also blown away when people say really kind things. They've heard me sing for like a minute, they don't know me at all, but they're leaving such nice comments." （1） What happened after Yaniza started to sing in Spanish? A . Her audiences were growing.
