These balls are known as yuanxiao. Clearly, they got the names from the festival. It’s said that the custom (习俗) of eating yuanxiao started in the Eastern Jin Dynasty in the 4th century, and then become popular during the Tang and Song periods. The fillings (馅) inside the dumplings are either sweet or salty. Sweet fillings are made of sugar, sesame, flowers and so on. One ingredient (原料) or any mixture can be used for the filling. The salty kind is filled with meat, vegetables or a mixture. There are different ways to make yuanxiao. People in southern provinces have a usual way to make yuanxiao. They form the rice flour into balls, make a hole, add the filling, and then close the hole and smooth out the dumpling by rolling (翻滚) it between hands. In North China, sweet or non-meat fillings are the usual ingredients. The fillings are pressed into (压成) hardened cores (核), dropped lightly in water and rolled in a flat basket with dry glutinous rice flour. The flour sticks to the fillings. Then the fillings are again dropped in water and rolled a second time in the rice flour. And so it goes, like rolling a snowball, until the dumpling is the wanted size. ________ It makes both old and new stores still sell yuanxiao. They all try their best to make the taste and quality of the dumplings better to catch people’s eyes. 27．Which of the following about yuanxiao is True according to the passage?

Drop the fillings in water A．a-d-c-a-d-b B．c-a-d-a-d-b C．d-a-c-d-a-b D．c-d-a-d-a-b 29．Paragraphs 3 and 4 mainly talk about ________. A．a.special rolling ways of yuanxiao B．all kinds of fillings of yuanxiao C．different ways of making yuanxiao D．some cooking tools of yuanxiao 30．Which of the following can be put at the beginning of Paragraph 5? A．The dumplings have different fillings and making ways. B．The custom of eating yuanxiao still keeps on. C．The Lantern Festival has become more important than before. D．People enjoy making yuanxiao together at the Lantern Festival. 【答案】27．A 28．D 29．C 30．B 【导语】本文主要讲述了元宵的起源、制作材料和方法等。 27．细节理解题。根据“another important part of the Lantern Festival is eating dumpling balls made of glutinous rice flour (糯米粉). These balls are known as yuanxiao”可知，元宵是用糯米粉做的。故选A。 28．细节理解题。根据“The fillings are pressed into (压成) hardened cores (核), dropped lightly in water and rolled in a flat basket with dry glutinous rice flour. The flour sticks to the fillings. Then the fillings are again dropped in water and rolled a second time in the rice flour. And so it goes, like rolling a snowball, until the dumpling is the wanted size.”可知，馅料被压入硬化的核中，轻轻浸入水中，与干糯米粉一起放在一个扁篮子里滚。面粉粘在馅料上。然后将馅料再次放入水中，在米粉中再次滚动。就这样，像滚雪球一样，直到饺子变成想要的大小。故正确的顺序为c-d-a-d-a-b。故选D。 29．主旨大意题。根据“People in southern provinces have a usual way to make yuanxiao”和“The fillings are pressed into (压成) hardened cores (核)...And so it goes, like rolling a snowball, until the dumpling is the wanted size”可知，第三段和第四段主要谈论了元宵的不同的制作方法。故选C。 30．推理判断题。根据“It makes both old and new stores still sell yuanxiao. They all try their best to make the taste and quality of the dumplings better to catch people’s eyes.”可知，这使得新旧商店都还在卖元宵。他们都尽自己最大的努力使元宵的味道和质量更好，以吸引人们的眼球。故可推测出，空格处应是人们还在做元宵的原因。选项B“吃元宵的习俗仍在继续。”符合语境。故选B。 D 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中，选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项，并将所选答案涂到答题卡的相应位置上。 The British people have their own customs. 31 .
