Ⅴ.阅读理解
2023·泉州一中高一检测It's easy to think festivals are just about drinking and dancing, but festivals are also representatives of what a certain way of life thinks, the way they express themselves. I've been to over 60 festivals in 22 different countries, and I still want to experience more. One of the main reasons I enjoy going to international festivals so much is the fact that they are a microcosm of what they represent.
Festivals are an opportunity to see as much as possible in a weekend into worlds so different, or even familiar, of my own.
Festivals are a fascinating insight into a group of individuals with a common understanding and the world they are living in. This is also one of the reasons I enjoy international festivals.
I ticked off a huge bucket list festival in the Lake of Stars Festival in Malawi a few years ago. I was unwell and not my usual party self, but, it gave me the opportunity instead to sit and listen to the local poets.
Through their poetry, they enlightened me on some of the issues of the day—calling out their “fat government” and covering everything from housing, to relationships, to the nominal(名义上的) opportunities.
The importance of celebrating festivals abroad isn't just to gather with your “tribe”. What I learned in a few poems at the Lake of Stars Festival were fascinating insights into modern social issues and the Malawi of the present, which I would have had to dig deep to find out. And I probably wouldn't have bothered to, to be honest.
Even if only for a weekend, what I learned there from the poets and artists gave me a better understanding of what life was like in Malawi.
You never know what you're going to learn when you visit a new festival. That's all part of the fun and expectation.
Comedy makes current social issues fun, music makes them melodic(悦耳的), while poetry makes them considered and heartfelt. Festivals bring you them all.
( )1.What does the underlined part “a microcosm” probably mean in Paragraph 1?
A.A different view.
B.A mixed reaction.
C.A small world.
D.A rare opportunity.
C
( )2.What does the author think of the Lake of Stars Festival?
A.Instructive. B.Informal.
C.Commercial. D.Huge.
( )3.What does the author want to stress in the text?
A.His wishes.
B.The greatness of poets.
C.The differences between festivals.
D.The significance of festivals.
A
D
【文本大意】本文主要讲述了节日的意义。
1.C 词义猜测题。根据画线部分所在句下文“ Festivals are an opportunity to see as much as possible in a weekend into worlds so different, or even familiar, of my own.(节日是一个机会,让我在一个周末尽可能多地看到不同的世界,甚至熟悉的自己的世界。)”以及画线部分所在句“One of the main reasons I enjoy going to international festivals so much is the fact that they are a microcosm of what they represent.(我如此喜欢参加国际节日的一个主要原因是它们是它们所代表的东西的一个微观世界/缩影。)”可知,画线部分的意思是“一个微观世界/缩影”。故选C。
2.A 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Through their poetry, they enlightened me on some of the issues of the day—calling out their ‘fat government’ and covering everything from housing, to relationships, to the nominal(名义上的) opportunities.(通过他们的诗歌,他们启发了我对当下的一些问题的认识——呼唤他们的‘臃肿不堪的政府’,涵盖了从住房到人际关系,再到名义上的机会的一切。)”可知,作者对星湖节的看法是它具有启发性的(instructive)。故选A。
3.D 主旨大意题。通读全文可知,作者去22个不同国家参加过60多个节日,但仍然想体验更多。作者如此喜欢参加国际节日的一个主要原因是它们是它们所代表的东西的缩影。作者认为节日是一个机会,可以让他在周末尽可能多地看到不同的世界,甚至熟悉的自己的世界。因此本文主要强调了节日的重大意义。故选D。
