用英语讲述中国传统文化之传统文化阅读 ( 传统节日 ) Passage 1阅读理解A 主题语境：节日习俗 语篇类型：说明文 词数: 303 建议用时：7分钟 The traditional Chinese Longtaitou Festival, or the Dragon- Head- Raising Festival, falls on the second day of the second lunar month every year, and recognizes the start of spring and farming. Ancient people believed that after this day, rainfall increases because the rain- bringing Dragon King has awakened from his winter sleep. A well-known phrase goes," Er yue er, long tai tou," meaning," On the second day of the second month, the dragon lifts his head". The festival celebrates ancient agrarian (农业的)Chinese culture, and while some of traditional ways to celebrate it are no longer practiced, others persist. The most famous tradition is getting a haircut. * Some believe that going to the barber on this day gets rid of bad luck, while others believe that getting a haircut during the first month of the lunar calendar brings bad luck. Another saying warns that cutting your hair in the first month will cause your uncle to die. Although today few pay attention to it, it was once tradition to line up outside barber shops on the day of Longtaitou, having avoided haircuts for the preceding (前面的) month. People eat tofu balls in East China's Fujian Province during the festival, and often make tofu and vegetable balls to pray for family and business. Fried beans are the traditional festival fare for people in parts of Shandong Province. Eating chengyao cakes, which are made with sticky rice, during the festival is tradition in Suzhou, East China's Jiangsu Province, in tribute to the saying,“ If you eat chengyao on Longtaitou, your waist won't hurt all year.” Meanwhile, other foods, like dumplings, spring rolls and popcorn, are named after dragon body parts to mark the day. Noodles are the dragon's beard, dumplings are the dragon's ears, spring rolls are the dragon's scales(鳞)，and popcorn is the dragon's seed. 1 What can we learn about the Dragon- Head- Raising Festival from Paragraph 1?

D 细节理解题。根据第三段的 Some believe that going to the barber on this day gets rid of bad luck, while others believe that getting a haircut during the first month of the lunar calendar brings bad luck.可知，人们二月二理发是为了去除霉运以求来年一切顺利。 4. A 细节理解题。根据最后一段的 foods, like dumplings,spring rolls and popcorn, are named after dragon body parts to mark the day 可知，人们以龙的身体部位命名食物是为了庆祝节日。 难句分析 ★ Some believe that going to the barber on this day gets rid of bad luck, while others believe that getting a haircut during the first month of the lunar calendar brings bad luck.一些人认为在这一天去理发可以摆脱坏运气，而另一些人则认为在农历第一个月理发会带来坏运气。 ★ while 连接两个并列分句，表示对比，意为“而”。两个 that 均引导宾语从句。 · 参考译文： 每年农历二月初二是中国传统的龙抬头节，这一天每标志着春天和农耕的开始。古人认为，在这一天之后，降雨量会增加，因为带来雨水的龙王已经从冬眠中苏醒。俗语有云：“二月二，龙抬头”，意思是“每年农历二月初二传说是龙抬头的日子”。 这个节日庆祝中国古代的农耕文化，虽然一些传统的庆祝方式已经不复存在，但还有一些方式沿用至今。 其中最著名的传统是理发。一些人认为在这一天去理发可以摆脱坏运气，而另一些人则认为在农历第一个月理发会带来坏运气。另一种说法警告称，正月里理发会“死舅舅”。虽然如今很少有人在意这个说法，但在龙抬头那一天，在理发店外排队曾经是一种传统，因为正月里大家都没有理发。 在中国东部的福建省，人们在二月二这一天吃豆腐丸子和蔬菜丸子以祈求家人平安、生意兴隆。在山东省的部分地区，炒豆子是传统的节日美食。在节日期间吃糯米做的撑腰糕是江苏苏州的传统，这是为了呼应那句俗语：“二月二龙抬头，吃了撑腰糕之后，就再也不会腰酸背痛了。” 与此同时，其他食物，如饺子、春卷和爆米花，也以龙的身体部位命名，以纪念这一天。面条是龙须，饺子是龙耳，春卷是龙鳞，爆米花是龙子。 Passage 2 阅读理解B 主题语境：传统节日 语篇类型：说明文 词数: 301 建议用时：7分钟 The Double Ninth Festival, also known as the Chongyang Festival, is held on the ninth day of the ninth lunar month. According to records from the mysterious book Yi Jing, the number 6 belonged to the Yin character while the number 9 was thought to be of the Yang character. So, on the ninth day of the ninth lunar month,both day and month are Yang characters. Therefore, the festival was named the Chongyang Festival. In ancient China, as people ascended (登高) to high places on the Double Ninth Festival, it is also known as the Height Ascending Festival. This custom was supposedly started during the Eastern Han Dynasty, when people usually climbed mountains or towers. The Double Ninth Festival is a golden time of the year. * The first person who purportedly (据称) enjoyed chrysanthemums and drank chrysanthemum wine on that day was the poet Tao Yuanming, who lived during the JinDynasty. Tao Yuanming, famous for his poems, enjoyed chrysanthemums. Many people followed his suit, drinking chrysanthemum wine and enjoying chrysanthemums,which became a custom. During the Song Dynasty,enjoying chrysanthemums became popular and was an important activity on this festival day. After the Qing Dynasty, people went crazy for chrysanthemums, not only during the Double Ninth Festival, but also at other times by going outside and enjoying the plant. During the Tang Dynasty, inserting zhuyu on the Double Ninth Festival became popular. Ancient people believed that it helped avoid disasters. And women stuck chrysanthemums in their hair or hung branches on windows and doors to ward off evil. The Double Ninth Festival can be traced back to the Warring States Period.

A 细节理解题。根据第一段的 So, on the ninth day of the ninth lunar month, both day and month are Yang characters. Therefore, the festival was named the Chongyang Festival.可知，重阳节名字中的“阳”指的是节日的日期中两个9是“阳数”。 2. D 主旨大意题。根据第三段的 The first person who purportedly enjoyed chrysanthemums and drank chrysanthemum wine on that day was the poet Tao Yuanming...以及 Many people followed his suit, drinking chrysanthemum wine and enjoying chrysanthemums...可知，本段主要讲述了重阳节赏菊花、喝菊花酒这一习俗始于陶渊明。 3.

B 推理判断题。根据最后一段的 Like other traditional festivals, Chongyang Festival also has ancient legends.可知，此处作者指出重阳节和其他传统节日一样也有古老的传说。由此推知，接下来作者很可能会进一步展开关于重阳节的传奇故事。 难句分析 The first person who purportedly enjoyed chrysanthemums and drank chrysanthemum wine on that day was the poet Tao Yuanming, who lived during the Jin Dynasty.据称, 第一个在那一天赏菊、饮菊花酒的人是晋代诗人陶渊明。 第一个 who引导定语从句,修饰先行词 The first person,并在从句中作主语。第二个 who引导非限制性定语从句，补充说明先行词 Tao Yuanming，也在从句中作主语。 · 参考译文： 重阳节，又称重九节，在农历的九月初九。据神秘重的《易经》记载，数字6属于阴数，而数字9则被认为是阳数。因此，在农历九月初九这一天，日和月都是阳数，所以这个节日被称为重阳节。 在中国古代，人们在重阳节登高，因此重阳节也被称为登高节。据说这一习俗始于东汉时期，当时人们通常会爬山或登塔。 重阳节是一年中的黄金时节。据称，第一个在那一天赏菊、饮菊花酒的人是晋代诗人陶渊明。陶渊明以诗闻名，喜爱菊花。许多人效仿他，饮菊花酒、赏菊花，这逐渐成为富裕，新采朝，赏菊变得流行起来，成为这个节日的重要活动。清朝以后，人们不仅在重阳节，而且在其他时候也热衷于赏菊，纷纷外出观赏菊花。 唐朝时，在重阳节插茱萸的习俗流行起来。古人认为这有助于避灾。妇女们会头戴菊花或者把菊花枝叶挂在门窗上以驱邪。 重阳节可以追溯到战国时期。到了唐朝，重阳节被定为正式节日。和其他传统节日一样，重阳节也有古老的传说。 Passage 3 七选五阅读 主题语境：节日起源 语篇类型：说明文 词数: 302 建议用时：8分钟 While it's not as commonly celebrated nowadays, the Qixi Festival has been observed for over 2,000 years.____1______ Zhinu, the daughter of the emperor of heaven, fell in love with the humble cowherd Niulang. They got married and had two children before the emperor found out his daughter had been consorting with a lowly human and forcefully brought her back to heaven. ____2 We now know this cosmic river as the Milky Way. Standing on either shore, the couple mourned for their doomed (注定要失败的) love. The deities (神) were moved by their tears and permitted magpies to fly up to heaven and form a bridge across the river. As the legend goes, Zhinu and Niulang meet once a year on the bridge, on the seventh day of the seventh lunar month. Before this love story was formed, the Chinese had already noticed the Vega and Altair stars sitting on opposing ends of the Milky Way. 3 A poem in The Book of Songs from the Western Zhou Dynasty named Vega and its neighboring stars the Weaving Sisters, and Altair the Draught Oxen. This then formed the basis of Zhinu and Niulang as it made its way into common folk stories. 4 Women in ancient China used to pray to her to be blessed with good needlework so they could secure a husband. Offerings of tea, wine, flowers, and fruits would be laid out, and women would gather to compete with each other on threading needles under moonlight. 5 Much of modern- day Qixi therefore hinges on the love aspect, with couples celebrating it as Chinese Valentine's Day.* As you might expect, the festival is also a popular day to get married. 阅读短文，从选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 A. It dates back to a legendary romantic tale from the Han Dynasty. B. Today, of course, women are not quite judged by their needlework. C. As Zhinu's name suggests in Chinese, she is the goddess of weaving. D. Niulang set off in pursuit of Zhinu, but found his way blocked by a massive river. E. Most Chinese remember being told this romantic tragedy when they were children. F. Niulang grew desperate when he discovered Zhinu had been taken back to heaven. G. They are positioned the closest together on the seventh day of the seventh lunar month. · 参考答案： 每年农历七月初七是中国的传统节日七夕节。七夕被赋予了“牛郎织女”美丽的爱情传说，在当代更是产生了“中国情人节”的文化内涵。本文介绍了相关情况。 1. A此空位于段末，其内容往往承上或者启下。空前谈及七夕节的历史，而下文提及关于七夕节起源的故事。A项“它可以追溯到汉朝的一个传奇的浪漫故事。”与上下文关系最密切。 2. D 根据空后的 We now know this cosmic river as the Milky Way. Standing on either shore, the couple mourned for their doomed love.可知, 牛郎和织女最终被分隔在银河两岸。D项“牛郎去追织女，却发现路被一条大河阻隔。”符合语境。 3. G此空位于段中，且空前和空后都谈及织女星和牵牛星。由此推断，此空很可能承上启下谈及两颗星。G项“每年农历七月初七，这两颗星的距离最近。”符合语境。 4. C此空后讲述了古代中国妇女在七夕节常向织女祈求赐予自己精湛的针线技艺，以便能嫁得如意郎君。由此推知，此空很可能谈及织女擅长织布。C项“正如织女的名字所暗示的那样，她是织布女神。”符合语境。 5. B 根据空后的 Much of modern-day Qixi therefore hinges on the love aspect, with couples celebrating it as Chinese Valentine's Day.可知, 此段谈及现在七夕节的意义。B项“如今，当然，人们不再仅仅以针线活的好坏来评判女性。”符合本段语义，且很好地承接了上文。 难句分析 ★ As you might expect, the festival is also a popular day to get married.不出所料,这一天也是结婚的热门日子。 As引导非限制性定语从句，意为“正如；正像”，代指整个主句的内容，在从句中作 expect的宾语。 · 参考译文： 七夕节，又称“中国情人节”，于每年农历七月初七如约而至。尽管如今这个节日的庆祝氛围不如以往普遍，但其传承至今已超过两千年。它的渊源可以追溯到汉朝一则传奇浪漫的经典传说。 玉帝的女儿织女爱上了身份卑微的放牛郎，两个人结为夫妻并育有两个孩子。后来玉帝发现女儿与凡人私通，便强行将她带回天庭。 牛郎去追织女，却发现路被一条大河阻隔。如今，我们称这条宇宙之河为银河。两个人分立两岸，为这段无果的爱情哀伤不已。众神被他们的泪水所感动，让喜鹊飞上天，在银河上搭起一座桥。传说中，织女和牛郎每年七月初七都会在桥上相会。 在这一爱情故事诞生之前，中国人就已经注意到织女星和牛郎星位于银河的两侧。每年农历七月初七，这两颗星的距离最近。周朝《诗经》中的一首诗称织女星和其旁边的星群为织女，称牵牛星为牵牛。这便成为牛郎织女故事的雏形，并逐渐融入民间传说之中。 正如织女的名字所暗示的那样，她是织布女神。古代中国妇女常向她祈求赐予自己精湛的针线技艺，以便能获得如意郎君。她们会摆上茶、酒、鲜花和水果作为祭品，齐聚月光之下比拼穿针引线的技艺。 如今，当然，人们不再仅仅以针线活的好坏来评判女性。因此，现代七夕节更多地围绕着爱情展开，情侣们将其视为“中国情人节”。不出所料，这一天也是结婚的热门日子。 Passage 4完形填空 主题语境：传统节日 语篇类型：记叙文 词数:300 建议用时：12分钟 The Mid-Autumn Festival has always been my favorite holiday celebration since I arrived in China.

Ancient people believed that after this day, rainfall increases because the rain- bringing Dragon King has awakened from his winter sleep. A well-known phrase goes," Er yue er, long tai tou," meaning," On the second day of the second month, the dragon lifts his head". The festival celebrates ancient agrarian (农业的)Chinese culture, and while some of traditional ways to celebrate it are no longer practiced, others persist. The most famous tradition is getting a haircut. * Some believe that going to the barber on this day gets rid of bad luck, while others believe that getting a haircut during the first month of the lunar calendar brings bad luck. Another saying warns that cutting your hair in the first month will cause your uncle to die. Although today few pay attention to it, it was once tradition to line up outside barber shops on the day of Longtaitou, having avoided haircuts for the preceding (前面的) month. People eat tofu balls in East China's Fujian Province during the festival, and often make tofu and vegetable balls to pray for family and business. Fried beans are the traditional festival fare for people in parts of Shandong Province. Eating chengyao cakes, which are made with sticky rice, during the festival is tradition in Suzhou, East China's Jiangsu Province, in tribute to the saying,“ If you eat chengyao on Longtaitou, your waist won't hurt all year.” Meanwhile, other foods, like dumplings, spring rolls and popcorn, are named after dragon body parts to mark the day. Noodles are the dragon's beard, dumplings are the dragon's ears, spring rolls are the dragon's scales(鳞)，and popcorn is the dragon's seed. 1 What can we learn about the Dragon- Head- Raising Festival from Paragraph 1?

Passage 2 阅读理解B 主题语境：传统节日 语篇类型：说明文 词数: 301 建议用时：7分钟 The Double Ninth Festival, also known as the Chongyang Festival, is held on the ninth day of the ninth lunar month. According to records from the mysterious book Yi Jing, the number 6 belonged to the Yin character while the number 9 was thought to be of the Yang character. So, on the ninth day of the ninth lunar month,both day and month are Yang characters. Therefore, the festival was named the Chongyang Festival. In ancient China, as people ascended (登高) to high places on the Double Ninth Festival, it is also known as the Height Ascending Festival. This custom was supposedly started during the Eastern Han Dynasty, when people usually climbed mountains or towers. The Double Ninth Festival is a golden time of the year. * The first person who purportedly (据称) enjoyed chrysanthemums and drank chrysanthemum wine on that day was the poet Tao Yuanming, who lived during the JinDynasty. Tao Yuanming, famous for his poems, enjoyed chrysanthemums. Many people followed his suit, drinking chrysanthemum wine and enjoying chrysanthemums,which became a custom. During the Song Dynasty,enjoying chrysanthemums became popular and was an important activity on this festival day. After the Qing Dynasty, people went crazy for chrysanthemums, not only during the Double Ninth Festival, but also at other times by going outside and enjoying the plant. During the Tang Dynasty, inserting zhuyu on the Double Ninth Festival became popular. Ancient people believed that it helped avoid disasters. And women stuck chrysanthemums in their hair or hung branches on windows and doors to ward off evil. The Double Ninth Festival can be traced back to the Warring States Period. During the Tang Dynasty,the Double Ninth Festival was on official lists of folk festivals. Like other traditional festivals, the Double Ninth Festival also has ancient legends. 1 What does the“yang” in the Chongyang Festival refer to? A. The date of the festival. B. The weather during the festival. C. The cakes prepared for the festival. D. The flowers enjoyed during the festival. 2 What's the main idea of Paragraph 3? A. Tao Yuanming is famous for poems themed chrysanthemums. B. People were fascinated by chrysanthemums during the JinDynasty. C. The Double Ninth Festival is usually celebrated in a pleasant season. D. Enjoying chrysanthemums and chrysanthemum wine came from TaoYuanming. 3 Why do people insert zhuyu on the Double Ninth Festival? A. Because it is a plant with a strong fragrance. B. Because it can beautifully decorate windows. C. Because it is believed to help protect people from disasters. D. Because it can be used to drive away animals in the mountain. 4 What is most likely to be discussed in the paragraph that follows? A. The activities of the Double Ninth Festival. B. The stories behind the Double Ninth Festival. C. The popularity of the Double Ninth Festival. D. The food customs of the Double Ninth Festival. Passage 3 七选五阅读 主题语境：节日起源 语篇类型：说明文 词数: 302 建议用时：8分钟 While it's not as commonly celebrated nowadays, the Qixi Festival has been observed for over 2,000 years.____1______ Zhinu, the daughter of the emperor of heaven, fell in love with the humble cowherd Niulang. They got married and had two children before the emperor found out his daughter had been consorting with a lowly human and forcefully brought her back to heaven. ____2 We now know this cosmic river as the Milky Way. Standing on either shore, the couple mourned for their doomed (注定要失败的) love. The deities (神) were moved by their tears and permitted magpies to fly up to heaven and form a bridge across the river. As the legend goes, Zhinu and Niulang meet once a year on the bridge, on the seventh day of the seventh lunar month. Before this love story was formed, the Chinese had already noticed the Vega and Altair stars sitting on opposing ends of the Milky Way. 3 A poem in The Book of Songs from the Western Zhou Dynasty named Vega and its neighboring stars the Weaving Sisters, and Altair the Draught Oxen. This then formed the basis of Zhinu and Niulang as it made its way into common folk stories. 4 Women in ancient China used to pray to her to be blessed with good needlework so they could secure a husband. Offerings of tea, wine, flowers, and fruits would be laid out, and women would gather to compete with each other on threading needles under moonlight. 5 Much of modern- day Qixi therefore hinges on the love aspect, with couples celebrating it as Chinese Valentine's Day.* As you might expect, the festival is also a popular day to get married. 阅读短文，从选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 A. It dates back to a legendary romantic tale from the Han Dynasty. B. Today, of course, women are not quite judged by their needlework. C. As Zhinu's name suggests in Chinese, she is the goddess of weaving. D. Niulang set off in pursuit of Zhinu, but found his way blocked by a massive river. E. Most Chinese remember being told this romantic tragedy when they were children. F. Niulang grew desperate when he discovered Zhinu had been taken back to heaven. G. They are positioned the closest together on the seventh day of the seventh lunar month.
