The ancient Chinese believed that in this solar term,yin gradually decreases while yang begins to rise.An interesting saying“voles(田鼠)turn to quails(鹌鹑)”reflects this idea.The vole was believed to stand for yin probably because voles in winter stay underground.But with the temperature rising,they become more active and begin moving around on the ground.This is what quails usually do,and why they stood for yang.It's said that in this solar term,ancient people would see quails moving in fields of grass and mistake them for voles.So this gave rise to the saying. Among the 24 solar terms,Qingming,also called Tomb-sweeping Day,stands out as the only one celebrated as an important Chinese festival.Chinese people pay respect to their ancestors with offerings and by cleaning their tombs. Many new and eco-friendly ways to celebrate Qingming have replaced the traditional practices of burning joss paper and setting off firecrackers.For example,in 2023,people at the Babaoshan Funeral Home in Beijing placed paper boats carrying wishes into a small pool.These things are made from water--soluble(可溶于水的)woodpulp (浆)，with characters printed using food-grade pigments(颜料) 56.When was Qingming in 2025? 57.Why is Qingming an important time for plowing and sowing in the spring? 58.According to the passage,what would voles do with the temperature rising? 59.Among the 24 solar terms,is Oingming the only one celebrated as an important Chinese festival? 60.What do you think of people's practices at the Babaoshan Funeral Home in 2023? 第二节书面表达（共1题，满分15分） 假设你是李华，你的外国笔友Pter对中国的传统节日很感兴趣。中秋节刚过，请你给他写一封信，介 绍一下你是如何度过这个节日的。 内容要点如下： 1.简单介绍中秋节（时间、意义） 2.描述你和家人的庆祝方式（如：吃月饼、赏月、家庭聚餐) 3.分享一个让你印象深刻或感动的瞬间。 第6页，共7页 注意： 1.词数80-100左右 2开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数 Dear Peter, I have received your e-mail.
