Dads have Father’s Day. Moms have Mother’s Day. Kids have Children’s Day. However, do our grandparents have a special holiday? Yes, they do!
The Double Ninth Festival, also called the Chongyang Festival, is a special day for old people in China. The festival is on the ninth day of the ninth month in the traditional Chinese calendar. Its long history dates back to the Warring States Period (战国时期). At that time, it was only celebrated in the palace. From the Han Dynasty, it began to be popular among the common people. It was not officially set as a festival until the Tang Dynasty. In modern times, the festival has changed a little more. As the Chinese word for “nine” has the same sound as the word “jiu”, people take the Double Ninth Festival to show their wishes of long life for old people. In 1989, the Chinese government made the day the Old People’s Festival.
People celebrate the festival in many ways. On that day, families get together and climb mountains for good luck and in the hope that old people will live much longer and healthier. To celebrate it, they also enjoy autumn flowers, drink flower tea and wear a plant called Zhuyu. It is believed by people that Zhuyu can keep illness and bad luck away. Eating Chongyang cake is another tradition on the festival. There is no certain shape of the cake. But the one with nine layers (层) is the best. Nine layers mean that people could do well in everything. The soft and sweet Double Ninth Cake is not only delicious but also carries people’s wishes for their family members. Young people often prepare delicious cakes to share with old family members. The ways of celebrating the Double Ninth Festival have changed over time, but ▲ has (have) stayed the same.
The festival stands for a tradition of respecting (尊重) old people in China. That’s because old people have rich knowledge and experience that young people can learn from. Besides, to respect the old people is to respect yourself tomorrow.
4. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?
A. The main history of the festival. B. The time and place of the festival.
C. The steps to celebrate the festival. D. The reasons to celebrate the festival.
5. Which one may NOT be a tradition for the Double Ninth Festival in this passage?
A. Eating nine-layer cakes. B. Wearing Zhuyu and drinking flower tea.
C. Cleaning houses and eating long noodles. D. Climbing mountains with family members.
6. Which of the following can be the best for “ ▲ ” in Paragraph 3?
A. the story about the festival B. the meaning of the festival
C. the activities during the festival D. the food and drinks for the festival
7. What is the writing purpose of the last paragraph?
A. To ask the old to teach the young. B. To advise the young to respect the old.
C. To help us know the culture of the festival. D. To share the ways of celebrating the festival.

“The judges (裁判) will not let you race,” said Mrs. Brown. “You’re 66 years old.”
“I am going to race,” said Mr. Brown. “And I am going to win!”
Mr. Brown went to see the judges. “I want to be in that race,” he said.
“Go home to your rocking chair!” said one of the judges. “You are too old. This race lasts for many days. It’s more than 1,000 miles. You would never make it.”
“We’ll see.” said Mr. Brown.
Over 1,000 men wanted to be in the race, but the judges picked only 50. They were all strong young men. They went by train to the town where the race would begin. There they spent days getting ready.
Mr. Brown was not one of the 50, so he couldn’t take the train. “Then I’ll ride my bicycle,” he said. And he did. He rode 1,000 miles just to get where the race was to start! At last, the race began. The 50 strong young men climbed on their bicycles and started out!
Close behind them came Mr. Brown. His long white hair waved in the wind. “You can keep me out of the race,” he said. “But you can’t keep me off the road!” And then Mr. Brown moved in front of the 50 strong young men!
After a while he came to a small town. The street was lined with people. They cheered (欢呼) when Mr. Brown rode by.
“Look, Daddy,” said a small boy. “There goes Supergrandpa!” Everyone laughed.
A newspaper reporter heard the boy. He took a picture of Mr. Brown and wrote a story about him. From then on, everybody in the town was cheering for “Supergrandpa”.
Day after day the race went on. Each night the 50 strong men rested. But not Supergrandpa! He rode for three days and three nights without any sleep at all. After that, he rested only five hours!
Supergrandpa didn’t even eat much. He didn’t want to leave the road. But sometimes people brought him cakes and coffee. So he would eat while sitting on his bicycle.
For more than six days, Supergrandpa rode on. At last he crossed the finishing line—a day ahead of the 50 strong young men. All the people in town were there to meet him. A band played, dogs barked, children danced. Around Supergrandpa, everybody cheered and cheered excitedly.
8. Why could Mr. Brown not be one of the 50 in the bicycle race?
A. Because he was too old for the race. B. Because he couldn’t make it to the end.
C. Because the judges didn’t like him. D. Because too many people wanted to win.

Sometimes when the rain falls hard and fast on you, it might hurt a little. But what happens when it hits (击中) a mosquito?
In 2012, David Hu, a scientist at Georgia Tech, became interested in this problem and decided to do a study. He used a high-speed camera so that he could watch the mosquitoes in very slow motion and find out what they’re doing when they’re out in the rain.
What he found is that when a raindrop falls on a mosquito, it’s like when a bus hits a person. Besides, a raindrop hits the mosquito about once every 20 seconds. So why don’t we see many dead mosquitoes after it rains?
A mosquito is as big as a raindrop, but it is much lighter—0.002g only. This saves the mosquito’s life when a raindrop hits it. Because the mosquito is so light, when it is hit by a raindrop, it won’t experience a force (力量) that is strong enough to kill it.
The study also found that when a mosquito is hit by a raindrop, the mosquito is pushed by the raindrop and falls together with it. But the mosquito doesn’t get wet easily because it is covered with hairs which can keep off water. After dropping about 6 cm, it will turn over off the raindrop and fly away.
However, this action isn’t always successful. If the mosquito flies too low (低的) when it is hit by the raindrop, it won’t have time to fly off. Then it will hit the ground and meet the end of its life.
12. What does the underlined word “motion” mean?
A. Time. B. Place. C. Action. D. Sound.
13. What helps mosquitoes stay safe in the rain?
A Their ears and their eyes. B. Their wings (翅膀) and their legs.
C. Their body shape and their wings. D. Their body weight (重量) and their hairs.
14. Which of the following can be dangerous for a mosquito in the rain?
A. It tries to turn over in time. B. It flies too close to the ground.
C. The rain falls too hard and fast. D. The raindrops hit it too many times.
15. What can we learn from David Hu’s study?
A. The activities that mosquitoes can do on rainy days.
B. The ways how raindrops kill a lot of mosquitoes.
C. The reasons why most mosquitoes aren’t hurt in the rain.
D. The steps that scientists need to watch mosquitoes in the rain.
【答案】12. C 13. D 14. B 15. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇科普说明文,主要讲述了科学家David Hu对蚊子在雨中如何生存的研究。研究发现蚊子由于其体重轻和体表覆盖的毛发,在雨中大多能安然无恙,但飞行过低时也可能面临危险。
【12题详解】
词句猜测题。根据文章第二段“He used a high-speed camera so that he could watch the mosquitoes in very slow motion and find out what they’re doing when they’re out in the rain.”可知,他使用高速摄像机是为了以非常慢的“motion”观察蚊子,从而找出它们在雨中的行为。由此可推测,“motion”在这里指的是“动作、行为”,与“Action”意思相符。故选C。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第四段“Because the mosquito is so light, when it is hit by a raindrop, it won’t experience a force that is strong enough to kill it.”以及第五段“But the mosquito doesn’t get wet easily because it is covered with hairs which can keep off water.”可知,蚊子的体重轻和体表覆盖的毛发帮助它们在雨中保持安全。故选D。
14题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“However, this action isn’t always successful. If the mosquito flies too low when it is hit by the raindrop, it won’t have time to fly off. Then it will hit the ground and meet the end of its life.”可知,如果蚊子在雨中被击中时飞得太低,它就没有时间飞走,从而会撞到地面结束生命。因此,飞行过低对蚊子来说是危险的。故选B。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章整体内容,David Hu的研究主要揭示了为什么大多数蚊子在雨中不会受到伤害的原因,包括它们的体重轻和体表覆盖的毛发等因素。因此,我们可以从他的研究中了解到大多数蚊子在雨中不受伤害的原因。故选C。

Dads have Father’s Day. Moms have Mother’s Day. Kids have Children’s Day. However, do our grandparents have a special holiday? Yes, they do!
The Double Ninth Festival, also called the Chongyang Festival, is a special day for old people in China. The festival is on the ninth day of the ninth month in the traditional Chinese calendar. Its long history dates back to the Warring States Period (战国时期). At that time, it was only celebrated in the palace. From the Han Dynasty, it began to be popular among the common people. It was not officially set as a festival until the Tang Dynasty. In modern times, the festival has changed a little more. As the Chinese word for “nine” has the same sound as the word “jiu”, people take the Double Ninth Festival to show their wishes of long life for old people. In 1989, the Chinese government made the day the Old People’s Festival.
People celebrate the festival in many ways. On that day, families get together and climb mountains for good luck and in the hope that old people will live much longer and healthier. To celebrate it, they also enjoy autumn flowers, drink flower tea and wear a plant called Zhuyu. It is believed by people that Zhuyu can keep illness and bad luck away. Eating Chongyang cake is another tradition on the festival. There is no certain shape of the cake. But the one with nine layers (层) is the best. Nine layers mean that people could do well in everything. The soft and sweet Double Ninth Cake is not only delicious but also carries people’s wishes for their family members. Young people often prepare delicious cakes to share with old family members. The ways of celebrating the Double Ninth Festival have changed over time, but ▲ has (have) stayed the same.
The festival stands for a tradition of respecting (尊重) old people in China. That’s because old people have rich knowledge and experience that young people can learn from. Besides, to respect the old people is to respect yourself tomorrow.
4. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?
A. The main history of the festival. B. The time and place of the festival.
C The steps to celebrate the festival. D. The reasons to celebrate the festival.

“The first prize for the bicycle race is $1,000,” said Mr. Brown.
“The judges (裁判) will not let you race,” said Mrs. Brown. “You’re 66 years old.”
“I am going to race,” said Mr. Brown. “And I am going to win!”
Mr. Brown went to see the judges. “I want to be in that race,” he said.
“Go home to your rocking chair!” said one of the judges. “You are too old. This race lasts for many days. It’s more than 1,000 miles. You would never make it.”
“We’ll see.” said Mr. Brown.
Over 1,000 men wanted to be in the race, but the judges picked only 50. They were all strong young men. They went by train to the town where the race would begin. There they spent days getting ready.
Mr. Brown was not one of the 50, so he couldn’t take the train. “Then I’ll ride my bicycle,” he said. And he did. He rode 1,000 miles just to get where the race was to start! At last, the race began. The 50 strong young men climbed on their bicycles and started out!
Close behind them came Mr. Brown. His long white hair waved in the wind. “You can keep me out of the race,” he said. “But you can’t keep me off the road!” And then Mr. Brown moved in front of the 50 strong young men!
After a while he came to a small town. The street was lined with people. They cheered (欢呼) when Mr. Brown rode by.
“Look, Daddy,” said a small boy. “There goes Supergrandpa!” Everyone laughed.
A newspaper reporter heard the boy. He took a picture of Mr. Brown and wrote a story about him. From then on, everybody in the town was cheering for “Supergrandpa”.
Day after day the race went on. Each night the 50 strong men rested. But not Supergrandpa! He rode for three days and three nights without any sleep at all. After that he rested only five hours!
Supergrandpa didn’t even eat much. He didn’t want to leave the road. But sometimes people brought him cakes and coffee. So he would eat while sitting on his bicycle.
For more than six days, Supergrandpa rode on. At last he crossed the finishing line—a day ahead of the 50 strong young men. All the people in town were there to meet him. A band played, dogs barked, children danced. Around Supergrandpa, everybody cheered and cheered excitedly.
8. Why could Mr. Brown not be one of the 50 in the bicycle race?
A. Because he was too old for the race. B. Because he couldn’t make it to the end.
C. Because the judges didn’t like him. D. Because too many people wanted to win.
9. What can we infer (推断) from the underlined sentence “But you can’t keep me off the road!”?
A. Mr. Brown still competes in the bicycle race.
B. Mr. Brown crosses the road on his bicycle.
C. Mr. Brown leaves the road with his bicycle.
D. Mr. Brown hopes to be in the bicycle race next time.
10. What is the correct order of the story?

b. The judges refused Mr. Brown to take part in the race.
c. Everybody cheered for Mr. Brown when he reached the end.
d. Mr. Brown rode his bike to the town where the race would start.

A. A Big Winning Prize B. An Outgoing Old Man
C. An Exciting Riding Race D. An Excellent Supergrandpa

Sometimes when the rain falls hard and fast on you, it might hurt a little. But what happens when it hits (击中) a mosquito?
In 2012, David Hu, a scientist at Georgia Tech, became interested in this problem and decided to do a study. He used a high-speed camera so that he could watch the mosquitoes in very slow motion and find out what they’re doing when they’re out in the rain.
What he found is that when a raindrop falls on a mosquito, it’s like when a bus hits a person. Besides, a raindrop hits the mosquito about once every 20 seconds. So why don’t we see many dead mosquitoes after it rains?
A mosquito is as big as a raindrop, but it is much lighter—0.002g only. This saves the mosquito’s life when a raindrop hits it. Because the mosquito is so light, when it is hit by a raindrop, it won’t experience a force (力量) that is strong enough to kill it.
The study also found that when a mosquito is hit by a raindrop, the mosquito is pushed by the raindrop and falls together with it. But the mosquito doesn’t get wet easily because it is covered with hairs which can keep off water. After dropping about 6 cm, it will turn over off the raindrop and fly away.
However, this action isn’t always successful. If the mosquito flies too low (低的) when it is hit by the raindrop, it won’t have time to fly off. Then it will hit the ground and meet the end of its life.
12. What does the underlined word “motion” mean?
A. Time. B. Place. C. Action. D. Sound.
13. What helps mosquitoes stay safe in the rain?
A. Their ears and their eyes. B. Their wings (翅膀) and their legs.
C. Their body shape and their wings. D. Their body weight (重量) and their hairs.
14. Which of the following can be dangerous for a mosquito in the rain?
A. It tries to turn over in time. B. It flies too close to the ground.
C. The rain falls too hard and fast. D. The raindrops hit it too many times.
15. What can we learn from David Hu’s study?
A The activities that mosquitoes can do on rainy days.
B. The ways how raindrops kill a lot of mosquitoes.
C. The reasons why most mosquitoes aren’t hurt in the rain.
D. The steps that scientists need to watch mosquitoes in the rain.
