Rabbits are quiet but they run quickly. Besides, they can have many babies quickly, so Chinese people also see the rabbit as a symbol of good luck, thinking that having many children would bring happiness.
Rabbits are famous in Western stories too! In Alice in Wonderland, Alice follows a rabbit and goes on an amazing adventure (奇遇). In Western countries, rabbits are also seen as lucky animals. Some people believe that carrying a rabbit’s foot brings good luck. In the past, if young hunters caught a rabbit, they were given the rabbit’s back foot as a prize.

Men and women often do things in different ways. Scientists are curious to know the reasons. After doing some research (研究) on the human brain (大脑), they’ve found some interesting facts.
Usually, women’s brains make them notice and remember little things more easily. They are more likely to think back to the smell in a room, the sound of a song, or the little things they see during the day. For example, a woman might easily remember her friend’s clothes. However, men’s brains are more focused on the job at hand. A man will think more about only one job until it’s fully finished. He might work on painting a house without noticing other things.
These different thinking ways influence (影响) how they think of their lives. Women usually see all sides of their lives as connected. If they have a bad day at work, it might influence their mood (情绪) at home. However, men usually see each part of their lives, like work, hobbies, and family, as different pieces.
In a team, men and women finish different jobs. Women are more likely to share ideas and make the team members feel easy. Men usually balance the jobs and make everyone work better.
Although men and women have their differences, both ways of thinking are important. They help us solve different problems and answer all kinds of questions in life.

B. Men’s way of thinking is better than women’s.
C. Women’s way of thinking is good for solving family problems.

Many festivals are connected with animals. The Mid-Autumn Festival is one of them. This festival gives people great chances to learn about rabbits.
In Chinese stories, people connect the rabbit to the moon. Long ago, people believed a rabbit lived on the moon, called the Moon Rabbit. It is said to be the pet of the moon goddess (女神), Chang’e. Rabbits are quiet but they run quickly. Besides, they can have many babies quickly, so Chinese people also see the rabbit as a symbol of good luck, thinking that having many children would bring happiness.
Rabbits are famous in Western stories too! In Alice in Wonderland, Alice follows a rabbit and goes on an amazing adventure (奇遇). In Western countries, rabbits are also seen as lucky animals. Some people believe that carrying a rabbit’s foot brings good luck. In the past, if young hunters caught a rabbit, they were given the rabbit’s back foot as a prize. In places like North America and the UK, some priests (牧师) say the word “rabbit” on the first day of each month to bring good luck.
As we celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival, let’s enjoy these stories and share the good luck that rabbits bring!
21. Which festival is related to rabbits as mentioned in the passage?
A. Spring Festival. B. Mid-Autumn Festival.
C. Dragon Boat Festival. D. Lantern Festival.
22. Whose pet is the Moon Rabbit in the story?
A. Hou Yi’s. B. Chang’e’s. C. Nuwa’s. D. Fuxi’s.
23. What can bring good luck in Western people’s opinion?
A. Carrying a rabbit’s foot. B. Going on an amazing adventure.
C. Keeping rabbits as pets. D. Saying the word “rabbit” every day.
24 What is the structure of this text?
A. B. C. D.
25. What would be the best title?
A Rabbits in Western Countries. B. Different Festivals of Rabbits.
C. Rabbits and Festivals. D. The Story of Chinese Rabbits.

Men and women often do things in different ways. Scientists are curious to know the reasons. After doing some research (研究) on the human brain (大脑), they’ve found some interesting facts.
Usually women’s brains make them notice and remember little things more easily. They are more likely to think back to the smell in a room, the sound of a song, or the little things they see during the day. For example, a woman might easily remember her friend’s clothes. However, men’s brains are more focused on the job at hand. A man will think more about only one job until it’s fully finished. He might work on painting a house without noticing other things.
These different thinking ways influence (影响) how they think of their lives. Women usually see all sides of their lives as connected. If they have a bad day at work, it might influence their mood (情绪) at home. However, men usually see each part of their lives, like work, hobbies, and family, as different pieces.
In a team, men and women finish different jobs. Women are more likely to share ideas and make the team members feel easy. Men usually balance the jobs and make everyone work better.
Although men and women have their differences, both ways of thinking are important. They help us solve different problems and answer all kinds of questions in life.
26 What does the underlined word “curious” mean in Paragraph 1?
A. interested. B. happy. C. worried. D. tired
27. What do women’s brains help them do more easily?
A. Find interesting facts. B. Focus on the job at hand.
C. Care for little things. D. Remember more friends.
28. In a team, what do men like to do?
A. Make the job finished better. B. Share ideas with others.
C. Compare everyone’s job. D. Do all the work alone.
29. What can we know from the passage?
A. One way of thinking is enough for all problems.
B. Men’s way of thinking is better than women’s.
C. Women’s way of thinking is good for solving family problems.
D. We need both men’s and women’s ways of thinking to live better.
