On this day, people would like to drink chrysanthemum (菊花) wine. The Chinese word for wine is Jiu, a similar pronunciation of the Chinese word for “long”, which means “forever”. Another special food for this festival is chrysanthemum cakes. The Chinese word for cake is Gao, a similar pronunciation of the Chinese word “high”, showing great progress at work and in daily life. It is hard to say when these customs began. But there are many stories about the festival. As was recorded in a historical book of the sixth century, there lived a man named Huan Jing. He was learning the magic arts from Fei Changfang. One day, the two people were climbing a mountain. Fei Changfang suddenly stopped and looked very upset. He told Huan Jing, “On the ninth day of the ninth lunar month, a disaster will come to your hometown. You must go home at once. Remember to make a red bag for each of your family members. Then you must all tie your bags to your arms, leave home quickly and climb to the top of a mountain. Most importantly, you must all drink some chrysanthemum wine. Only by doing so can your family members be safe.” On hearing this, Huan Jing rushed home and asked his family to do as his teacher said. The whole family climbed a nearby mountain and did not return until the evening. When they got back home, they found all their animals dead, including chickens, sheep, dogs and even the ox. Since then, climbing a mountain and drinking chrysanthemum wine became the traditional activities of the Double Ninth Festival. 1．What food and drinks do the Chinese people enjoy on the Double Ninth Festival? 2．What special meaning does the chrysanthemum cake have? 3．When did the story in the passage happen? 4．What did Fei Changfang tell Huan Jing to do on the ninth day of the ninth lunar month? 5．What did the family find when they returned? （2） May Day, the first day of the month of May, is a special day. You may think it is International Workers’ Day and the beginning of your May Day holiday. For people from the West, May Day is also one of the biggest spring festivals. Many nations in Europe and North America celebrate it. And it is nothing new. In fact, it has to do with three even older festivals. May Day comes from Floralia, Beltane and Walpurgis Night. The first was an old festival in Italy. It celebrated Flora, the Roman goddess (女神) of flowers. The second is still celebrated in Ireland and Scotland. It marks the beginning of summer. The third is usually celebrated in Northern Europe to welcome the coming of warm days, people gather to celebrate the arrival of spring. Bonfires (篝火) are an important part of Beltane. People jump over them for good luck. In Northern Europe, people also light bonfires for Walpurgis Night. The bonfires keep them safe from bad things. Over time, these festivals helped make modern May Day. 1．When is International Workers’ Day? 2．Which festival celebrated Flora, the Roman goddess of flowers? 3．What does Beltane mark in Ireland and Scotland? 4．Why do people in Northern Europe light bonfires for Walpurgis Night? 5．Which festivals helped make modern May Day? （3） Tomb-sweeping (扫墓) Day is also called the Qingming Festival. It’s a traditional Chinese festival on around April 5th. It could go back to Hanshi Day(Cold Food Day) to remember the man named Jie Zitui. But people truly started to celebrate it in the year 732. So it has a long history. On that day, Chinese people celebrate—to remember and honor their ancestors (祭奠祖先). Young and old sweep the tombs and offer food and joss paper (钱纸) to their ancestors. When we talk about the Qingming Festival, a very famous Chinese painting may come up to our minds. Yes. Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival (《清明上河图》) is a painting created by Song Dynasty artist Zhang Zeduan. Zhang was born in 1085 and died in 1145. The painting shows the everyday life of people. It also shows the beautiful looks of the Bianjing City. We call the city Kaifeng now. A number of people, buildings and boats make the long painting interesting and fantastic. Vendors (小商贩) sell things all along the Rainbow Bridge. Lots of people cross the river on the great bridge. Over the centuries, Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival was kept among different owners. It was re-bought in 1945 and kept in Palace Museum (故宫博物院). The fantastic painting is seen as national treasure (国宝) and is on show only for special time every few years. 1．When is Tomb-sweeping Day?

And 2023 is the year of Rabbit. Before New Year’s Day, people are busy shopping and cleaning their house. On New Year’s evening, there is a big family dinner. No matter where they are, the family members will return home to enjoy the big dinner and celebrate the new year. After dinner, all the family stay up late to welcome the new year. On the first day of the new year, people put on their new clothes. Red clothes are their favorite, because red is the symbol of good luck. During the Spring Festival, People go to see their friends and relatives (亲戚). They say “Happy New Year” and “Good Luck” and some other greetings (祝福) to each other.

The festival came to China as early as the 1980s and was widely accepted. Why does a foreign festival become popular in China? In fact, Chinese traditional culture has always educated children to love and respect (尊敬) their parents. From our textbooks, we can read many poems and stories which celebrate (庆祝) mother’s love. Children in China grow up with the education of filial devotion (孝敬). On such a special day, people often use flowers or cards to express love. Carnations (康乃馨) are regarded as the perfect flowers for mothers around the world, but few know that China has its own for mothers—the tiger lily (虎百合). Like most of Chinese children, I’m too shy to say to my mom “I love you, mom” face to face. Instead, I will do what I can to show how much I love her. Mother’s Day is on the way, I’m going to send my mom a bunch of tiger lily. Also, helping with housework is a good way to make my mom happy. Love for mothers can have different ways of expression. What matters most is love, not the festival itself. What mothers truly want is perhaps just a simple (简单的) expression of love from their children. 根据短文内容回答问题。 1．When is Mother’s Day? 2．Why does a foreign festival become popular in China? 3．Is the tiger lily China’s own flower for mothers? 4．What’s the writer going to do to celebrate Mother’s Day? 5．What do you think the best gift for your mom on Mother’s Day ? （6） 阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题，每题答案不超过5个单词。 Grain Rain (谷雨) is the sixth solar term of the 24 solar terms (节气) in China.
