传统该不该变?

年夜饭是春节的一项重要传统。如今,有些人选择在饭店吃年夜饭,不过,不是每个人都支持这一想法。读者朋友们,你们怎么看呢?
Dear Editor,
We have eaten out for the Spring Festival family dinner for the last three years, and4 we have enjoyed it no less than eating at home. I don't understand why5 some people refuse to embrace the change.

尊敬的编辑:
最近三年,我家都是在外面吃年夜饭的,和在家吃比起来,在外面吃一样开心。我不理解为什么有些人拒绝接受改变。
Can't they admit that6 the preparations for the dinner are hard work? I really don't think it's worth the effort of spending so much time7 preparing for a single meal, and then another hour cleaning up the mess after8 it's over. We work all year, so why can't one day be about spending time with family and9 relaxing?
难道他们不觉得准备年夜饭很辛苦吗?花这么长时间准备一顿饭,饭后再花一个小时收拾,我真心觉得不值。辛苦一年了,为什么不能用这一天的时间陪陪家人,放松放松呢?
Eating out10 is a good choice and it has nothing to do with loss of traditions. We still have the dinner with the same people, just in a different place. The occasion is more enjoyable without all that tiring cooking, and the dishes taste better!
在外面吃年夜饭是个挺好的选择,而且这也谈不上丢弃传统。我们还是和同样的人一起吃饭,只是换了地方而已。不用辛苦地做饭,用餐会更加愉快,而且(饭店的)饭菜味道也更好!
In my opinion, what or where11 we eat on Spring Festival Eve really doesn't matter. Eating out may change the form of this tradition, but the love between the family members sitting around the table12 together remains the same.
Wang Peng, software engineer
在我看来,除夕夜我们吃什么、在哪里吃,真的不重要。在外面的饭店吃年夜饭可能改变了这个传统的表现形式,但是围坐在餐桌前的家人之间的亲情并没有改变。

When16 I was a little boy, the dinner on the eve of Spring Festival was what17 I looked forward to most. It was not only for the delicious food that18 we seldom got to eat, but19 for the opportunity to have our whole family gathered together20. I would run around the house, listening to the adults chatting about their year. I'd get under my mother's feet in the kitchen, watching her make dumplings. She'd put tokens in some dumplings: candies for a sweet life and peanuts for a long and healthy one. In the evening, all of us would sit around the table, enjoying the food and being together again21. We toasted each other, we laughed, and the simple, homemade dishes tasted more delicious than anything cooked by a top chef22.
小时候,我最期待的就是除夕的年夜饭,不仅可以吃到平时难以吃到的美食,而且全家人能有机会团聚在一起。那时我会在家里跑来跑去,听大人们闲聊他们这一年的情况。我还会缠着在厨房做饭的妈妈,看她包饺子。她会在有些饺子里放一点儿“彩头”:糖果寓意生活甜美,花生代表健康长寿。到了晚上,我们都围坐在餐桌前,享受美食和团圆的乐趣。大家互相敬酒,谈笑风生,简简单单的家常菜吃起来比顶级大厨做的菜都要美味。
I hope my children and their children will still value our memories of preparing the dinner together23. To me, the process is even more important than the dinner itself.

Ⅱ 七选五
Kids' birthday parties are wonderfully fun for all, but in the way that they are traditionally celebrated, they are the enemy of “zero waste living”. A kid's birthday party can produce lots of waste, from the plates, cups, and uneaten food, to the gift wrap, present boxes, and disposable (一次性的) decorations.
It doesn't have to be like that, though, as it is possible to hold a birthday party without waste. Here are some ideas on how to cut down on unnecessary waste and have a fun celebration.
Invitations
Forget the themed paper invitations; they get thrown away almost immediately anyway. 1(____) The mobile phone is a common communication tool which enables your guests to receive the invitation at any time.
Decorations
2(____) Stay away from them altogether, including balloons. If you must decorate, choose some reusable, classic decorations that can be pulled out every single year, such as colored lights. Make your own painted and personalized banner, paper hats, and so on. Keep them for the next year.
Food
Don't overdo the food preparation. 3(____) So you should put out only what is necessary, rather than ending up with loads of leftovers that are potentially ruined by the kids. Keep the rest for other meals. If other parents bring food, ask them to bring it in reusable containers.
Gifts
The gift giving part of a birthday party can produce a lot of unappealing trash, which is why you should choose an alternative. My kids have gone to several “toonie parties\” (a toonie is a two-dollar coin in Canada), where each guest gives two dollars in their card and that money can be used by the birthday child to buy a single toy. 4(____)
In my years of parenting, I've realized that kids mostly just want to play together. 5(____) In other words, you don't need to worry about it not feeling like a birthday. Furthermore, it will be a new and improved version that doesn't include massive bags of trash at the end of the day.
A.However, most parents find it hard to hold a “clean” party.
B.Decorations can usually make the party room more attractive.
C.Try using a basic email or phone call to create your guest list.
D.Decorations for kids' birthday parties are almost always disposable.
E.They will create a party feeling without much assistance from parents.
F.Kids hardly eat anything at birthday parties because they're so excited.
G.It's a great idea for reducing waste and making a child's birthday wishes come true.
篇章导读:本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了如何在举办一个有趣的生日派对的同时减少不必要的浪费。
1.答案:C
解析:根据上文“Forget the themed ... immediately anyway.(放弃主题形式的纸制邀请函,反正它们几乎立即会被扔掉。)”和下文“The mobile phone ... at any time.(手机是一种常见的通讯工具,可以让你的客人随时收到邀请函。)”可知,C项(尝试使用一个基本的电子邮件或电话来创建你的客人名单。)承上启下。故选C。
2.答案:D
解析:下文“Stay away from ... such as colored lights.”指出非必要不装饰,如果必须装饰,选用可重复使用的装饰品,D项(孩子生日派对的装饰品几乎都是一次性的。)引出下文,且其中的“Decorations”呼应下文的“them”。故选D。
3.答案:F
解析:下文“So you should ... ruined by the kids.”提到只拿出必要量的食物而不是最后剩一大堆食物被孩子们破坏。F项(孩子们在生日派对上很少吃东西,因为他们太兴奋了。)与下文构成因果关系。故选F。
4.答案:G
解析:上文“My kids have ... buy a single toy.”提出并解释了“toonie parties”的特点,G项(这是个减少浪费,实现孩子生日愿望的好主意。)承接上文。故选G。
5.答案:E
解析:根据下文“In other words ... like a birthday.”可知,父母无需担心这不像一个生日聚会的感觉。E项(无需父母太多的帮助,他们便会创造一种聚会的感觉。)引出下文,其中的feeling为原词复现。故选E。

[精彩范文]
Dear Peter,
Knowing that you are interested in the Spring Festival, I'm writing with great delight to introduce it and extend an invitation to you.
The Spring Festival is the most important festival for the Chinese people and it is a time when all family members get together. The Spring Festival falls on the 1st day of the 1st lunar month. On that day we often eat our traditional dumplings, which are very delicious. Besides, people usually decorate the doors and windows with red couplets and hang red lanterns, because red means good luck. Perhaps you will enjoy the Spring Festival Gala and set off fireworks with us if you come. In addition, children can get lucky money from their parents and grandparents.
I'd like to invite you to join us for the Spring Festival. Looking forward to your coming.
Yours,
Li Hua

Dear editor,
At my school, there is a growing concern over the smartphone use. Our school makes it clear that we cannot use smartphones at school. Otherwise, we will be punished. However, many of us try to use them in secret.
I don't think it is right to forbid smartphones at school. Firstly, they can keep us up-to-date with current events, which is very important for our study. Secondly, they can help us to exchange ideas with like-minded people. Last but not the least, they make it easier for us students to access online resources, enhancing our understanding of subjects.
In short, I think smartphones should not be forbidden as long as they are used wisely.
Yours,
Li Hua

One day an elderly postman knocked on the door of a house and asked if there was anyone to take the letter. As soon as he said this, a little girl's voice echoed (回响) from inside, but even after 5 minutes no one came out.
“Can anyone help you take the letter? I have to go to many more places,” the postman said again.
“Uncle, if you are in a hurry, please put the letter under the door. It will take me more time,” the girl replied.
“No, it is a registered letter. Someone's signature is needed,” the postman yelled.
Another 10 minutes past, there's no response. The postman got a bit cross about the delay, and he was about to shout when the door opened. He was shocked to see in front of him was a little girl with no legs. Speechless, he gave the letter quietly, took her signature and left. That day he got her name, Sally.
Sally often lived alone. Her mother died at an early age and her father used to work far away. A maid (女仆) was invited to stay with her in the morning and evening except the day. In a month or two, mails were delivered regularly, and their interaction and attachment grew. Sally noticed that the postman used to come barefoot. Rainy season came. One day when the postman left her home, his footprints were left on wet soil. Sally struggled out with a paper and put it on print and took down the picture of his feet. She asked her maid to get shoes of that size and kept them in a box.
Diwali (排灯节) was around the corner. During Diwali, the postman used to deliver mails and got Diwali gifts from the people who got mails. But when he thought about Sally, he started thinking that he shouldn't meet the girl emptyhanded during the festival. After much thought he bought some chocolate for the little girl.
