Every year, the Chinese Mid-Autumn Festival celebrates the biggest and brightest full moon of the year. The moon’s round shape symbolizes togetherness and unity, and families get together to share a meal, celebrate the beauty of the moon, and tell old stories. The tradition of appreciating the moon (赏月) began during the Tang Dynasty. At that time, the tradition was to look at the moon and take walks in the moonlight. A few hundred years later, the rulers of the Northern Song Dynasty changed the tradition. The Song decided to make the 15th day of the eighth month in the Chinese calendar the Mid-Autumn Festival. Food has always played an important role in Chinese celebrations, and mooncake is a Mid-Autumn Festival delight. Its round shape symbolizes completeness and togetherness. Traditionally, the filling is made with lotus seed or red bean paste, but you can find mooncakes filled with other things from meat and eggs to fruits and green tea. You can also find mooncakes in other shapes such as squares and even cartoon characters like Winnie the Poo h or Hello Kitty. Another favorite Mid-Autumn Festival tradition is lighting red lanterns.

C Do you love seeing beautiful lanterns outside? The best time to do this is during the Lantern Festival, which usually falls on the 15th of the first lunar month. This year it is on February 26th. Celebrations and traditions on this day began from the Han Dynasty and became popular in the Tang Dynasty. Watching the lanterns is one of the main traditions. Lanterns of different shapes and sizes are usually put on trees, or along river banks on show. In some places, people like releasing sky lanterns. It is said that sky lanterns were first used by Zhuge Kongming to ask for help when he was in trouble. Today, when the lanterns slowly rise into the air, people make wishes. Another tradition is guessing lantern riddles (字谜). The riddles are usually short and interesting. The answer to a riddle can be a Chinese character (汉字), a famous person’s name, or the name of a place. The most important thing is to eat sweet dumplings with different tastes. In northern China, they are called yuanxiao while in southern part they’re named tangyuan. Because making sweet dumplings is like a game or an activity, they are usually done happily by a group of friends or family members. In ancient times, the Lantern Festival was also romantic (浪漫的). At that time, young girls were not allowed to go out very often except during certain festivals. Watching lanterns gave young people a chance to meet each other.

It is also called Senior People’s Day—a day to respect the old and to let them enjoy themselves. On this day, schools often hold activities to let children show their love to the old. They go to the Senior Center (老年中心) to play games and talk with the old. They also help the old wash their feet. On Chongyang Festival, people like to climb a high mountain best. They climb high mountains because they want to enjoy the beauty of autumn. Here is a story of Chongyang Festival. It was said that during the Eastern Han Dynasty, a monster (怪物) could make everyone ill and die if it appeared. There was a young man called Huan Jing. After he lost his parents, he learned magic from a famous man. The man could predict (预测) the future. One day the man asked Huan Jing to go home because the monster was going to appear on the 9th day of the 9th lunar month. Also, the man told him to take the people to the top of the mountain and give each person a leaf and a cup of wine. The advice and Huan Jing’s brave fighting saved all the people, and the monster died finally. 32.The Chongyang Festival is also called _.

A.playing games with the old B.climbing a mountain C.going shopping in the supermarket D.helping the old wash their feet E ①On April Fool’s Day in many English-speaking countries, people play jokes on others. Newspapermen are usually serious, but sometimes they play jokes, too. There are many great examples of funny April Fool’s Day jokes from the newspaper and TV. ②For example, in 2008 BBC News reported that penguins (企鹅) could fly. It said their cameraman had seen this happen while filming at the South Pole. He said that, luckily, he had filmed the event, and they showed some videos of penguins taking off and flying through the air. Of course, the BBC later told the truth they had made up the whole story and used special effects (效果) to make the film. ③In 1981 the Daily Mail had a story about a Japanese runner in the London marathon (马拉松). The man was still running days after the race had finished. The story explained that the runner had misunderstood the rules of the race. Instead of running for 26 miles, he believed he needed to run for 26 days. The paper said that he was lost somewhere in the middle of the British countryside. ④And there’s certainly nothing new about these types of stories. Back in 1878, the Daily Graphic newspaper in the USA had a story about the famous scientist Thomas Edison. It told its readers that Edison had invented a food machine that would feed the humans. It didn’t explain how the machine worked, just that it would make any kind of food using air, water and earth. Many people believed the story and Edison got letters from people all over the country. ⑤So when people tell you not to believe everything you read in the newspapers or watch on TV, they might be right-especially on April 1st! 36.What is the text mainly about? A.How the newspaper and TV play jokes on April Fool’s Day. B.What the BBC cameraman made by using special effects. C.Why the Japanese runner got lost in the middle of countryside. D.Who invented a food machine to feed the humans on the earth. 37.How does the writer support (支持) the main idea of the text? A.By giving reasons. B.By comparing opinions. C.By showing examples. D.By using numbers. 38.What can we learn from the text? A.The penguins can fly at the South Pole. B.Edison’s food machine worked very well. C.Marathon runners sometimes need to run for 26 days. D.BBC News might play jokes on people on April 1st. 39.Which of the following best shows the structure of the text? A. B. C. D. 评卷人 得分 四、口语应用 (每小题1分,共5分) 阅读下面对话,从7个选项中选择5个恰当的句子完成此对话,并把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。 A: Lucy, summer holiday is coming. What’s your plan? B: I plan to go to Australia. A: 40 .
