Everybody must have 12 grapes to eat at midnight. At each sound of the clock,we must eat a grape. But we can't ever finish eating the grapes on time! Usually when people still have some grapes in their mouths, they look at each other and start to laugh. This tradition started in Spain long ago.

They all give me a drink. Angela from Brazil In all cities in Brazil,we have a big party on New Year' s Eve, especially in Rio de Janeiro. People in this city go to the beaches to watch fireworks.

Mother' s Day originated (起源 ) in America during the early 20th century. The festival spread to China as early as the 1980s and was widely accepted. Why did a foreign festival become popular in China? In fact, Chinese traditional culture has always encouraged filial (子女的 ) devotion to parents. There are many stories which show filial respect in ancient China. For example, the story of " Taste Liquid (液体的 ) Medicine for Mother" tells us the filial virtue(美德 ) of Emperor Wen of the Western Han Dynasty. His mother had been sick for three years. He often stayed up by her bedside and cared for her day and night. He tasted the liquid medicine first before she drank it. Also, mother love is a repeated subject in Chinese ancient poems, like " Song of the Parting Son" by Meng Jiao,a poet of the Tang Dynasty. Now this poem is still a must in the school textbooks. Children in China are brought up with the education of filial devotion. On special days, people often use roses or forget-me-nots （勿忘我) to express love. Carnations (康乃馨) are considered as the perfect flowers for mothers around the world , but few know that China has its own flower for mothers-the tiger lily. 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 expression of love from their children. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 ( )26. When did Mother' s Day spread to China? A. In the 1920s. B. In the 1980s. C.

( )30.What a mother truly wants on Mother's Day may be A. a big dinner B. a celebration party C. greetings of the festival D. expensive presents C In 1972, Richard Sears, a young American began learning Chinese because of his interest in traditional Chinese culture. Drawn to the ancient language,he went to China to study Chinese in the 1990s. In 1994, Richard Sears decided to put the ancient Chinese characters(汉字) online. Then, in 2002, he did it. That is the beginning of the Chinese Etymology(汉字字源 ) website. " My website did not get much attention for the next few years. Until one day in 20ll,it suddenly got a lot of attention. I got a few thousand emails, and a few million visitors and people started calling me 'Uncle Hanzi' ," Sears said with a smile. Hanzi means Chinese characters. He has put more than 96,000 ancient Chinese characters onto the website. " When I study each character,I wonder what the ancient Chinese thought, " said Sears. After visiting many Chinese cities, Sears learned more about China and ancient Chinese culture. He said when he came to China in the last century, few Chinese could speak good English. " However, you can hear English in many places in China now. Chinese language and culture were mysterious and not known by people in most countries then, but now, more and more people in the world are learning Chinese, even Chinese history, traditional Chinese medicine and so on, " Sears added. At present, the 70-year-old American has made his home in China. "When I die ,I hope my website will live on , and I' m planning to write a book about my research. This will be my gift to China, " he said. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 ( )31. What does " Drawn to the ancient language" mean in Paragraph l ? A. Sears was interested in ancient Chinese. B.
