Over 40 years ago,a country music DJ convention (was held every year in Nashville,
Tennessee.Many country performers used to attend the convention to give their performances.Fans
would go to Nashville hoping to see their favorite performers.In the end,so many fans began
showing up in Nashville that a festival named Fan Fair was born.
The first Fan Fair was held in April 1972,in Nashville for four days.Some of country music's
biggest stars attended.There were about fifty thousand fans.The first Fan Fair was so successful that
planning began almost immediately for 1973.The date was changed to June,when the weather would
be better.Over one hundred thousand fans attended the second Fan Fair.
Every year brought so many performers and fans to Fan Fair that,in 1982,it was moved to the
Tennessee State Fairgrounds.Fan Fair stayed at the fairgrounds for another nineteen years.
There was always the unexpected during the festival.In 1974,former Beatle Paul McCartney
attended.In 1992,more than six hundred reporters from Europe,Asia,and South America went to
cover the appearance of a popular star,Billy Ray Cyrus,who had introduced a new country line
dance.In 1996,Garth Brooks,who made a surprise appearance,signed autographs (for 23
hours.
In 2001,Fan Fair returned to downtown Nashville as the world's biggest country music festival.
Now,over one hundred and twenty-five thousand country music fans go to Nashville every June.As

C
In 1947 a group of famous people from the art world headed by an Austrian conductor decided to
hold an international festival of music,dance and theatre in Edinburgh.The idea was to reunite
Europe after the Second World War.
It quickly attracted famous names such as Alec Guinness,Richard Burton,Dame Margot Fonteyn
and Marlene Dietrich as well as the big symphony orchestras(交响乐团).It became a fixed event
every August and now attracts 400,000 people yearly.
At the same time,the "Fringe"appeared as a challenge()to the official festival.Eight theatre
groups turned up uninvited in 1947,in the belief that everyone should have the right to perform,and
they did so in a public house disused for years.
Soon,groups of students firstly from Edinburgh University,and later from the universities of
Oxford and Cambridge,Durham and Birmingham were making the journey to the Scottish capital each
summer to perform theatre by little-known writers of plays in small church halls to the people of
Edinburgh.
Today the "Fringe",once less recognized,has far outgrown the festival with around 1,500
performances of theatre.music and dance on every one of the 21 days it lasts.And yet as early as
1959,with only 19 theatre groups performing,some said it was getting too big.
A paid administrator(行政人员)was first employed only in 197l,and today there are eight
administrators working all year round and the number rises to 150 during August itself.In 2004 there
were 200 places housing 1,695 shows by over 600 different groups from 50 different countries.More
than 1.25 million tickets were sold.
28.What was the purpose of the Edinburgh Festival at the beginning?
A.To bring Europe together again.
B.To honor heroes of World War ll.
C.To introduce young theatre groups.
D.To attract great artists from Europe.
29.Why did some uninvited theatre groups come to Edinburgh in 1947?
A.They owned a public house there.
B.They came to take up a challenge.
C.They thought they were also famous.
D.They wanted to take part in the festival.
30.What does the "Fringe"mean in the third paragraph?
A.unpopular groups
B.non-official groups
C.foreign groups
D.local groups
31.We may learn from the text that the Edinburgh Festival
A.has become a non-official event
B.has gone beyond an art festival
C.gives shows all year round
D.keeps growing rapidly

What makes people so special?Tool use,self-consciousness,language,and culture are high on
the list,but in fact all of these characteristics can be found elsewhere in the animal kingdom.Humans
and apes are close relatives,so it is perhaps not surprising that chimpanzees use tools or that gorillas
(have a sense of fair play,even rejecting carrots (which they normally accept)when they see
their neighbors getting grapes.But the qualities that we often think of as uniquely human exist not
just on land,but in the ocean as well.
Among the invertebrates,octopuses(八爪鱼)are known for their intelligence,even exhibiting
evidence of playfulness,tool use,and personality.But these skilled predators live alone and
consequently lack culture.Dolphins,on the other hand,are large-brained,long-living,social-
group-based predators,and it is here that we find the greatest similarity to human-like culture and
awareness.
Culture depends on the ability of animals to pass on things they have learned to others.Many
animals have culture in this sense,but what sets dolphins apart is what they pass on.Some bottlenose
dolphins hold sponges in their mouths that they use as tools to sweep for fish hiding on the ocean
floor.This ability is handed down through generations (especially in females),with some families-
grandmother,mother,and daughter-all feeding in this highly specialized way.
Another characteristic that dolphins share with humans is their ability to recognize themselves in
a mirror.When facing a mirror,most animals behave as though they are interacting with another
individual.Even in humans,the ability to recognize that the image in a mirror is oneself does not
occur before the age of 18 months.Dolphins not only recognize themselves,but if a black mark is put
on the body of a dolphin,it will spend extra time at the mirror to look at the mark.
32.The example of gorillas rejecting carrots shows they
A.are not easy to fool
B.prefer fruit to vegetables
C.have a special taste for food
D.have an awareness of equality
33.What do octopuses lack compared with dolphins?
A.Social interaction.
B.Intelligence.
C.Tool using ability.
D.Fun-loving spirits.
34.What makes dolphin culture special?
A.They tend to hunt in groups.
B.Their hunting skills are passed down.
C.Their learning environment is favourable.
D.Their families are typically female-controlled.
35.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A.Dolphins enjoy looking at their own reflection in the mirror.
B.Dolphins are as intelligent as a typical 18-month-old human baby.
C.Dolphins are generally regarded as the most advanced non-human species.
D.Dolphins'ability to recognize their own reflection is a higher-order mental skill.

Get out your shovels,your seeds,and your soil-it's almost April 22.Here are five fun ways to
celebrate Earth Day with your kids.
Plant a tree.
Since the first Earth Day in 1970,planting trees has been a traditional way of celebrating the
holiday.Try planting one in your own backyard,or attending a local tree-planting event.In its
lifetime,that single tree will absorb approximately one ton of carbon dioxide.36
Spend the day without a car.
37 Yet,challenge yourself to make your way through the day without hopping in the car.
Walking,biking,or catching the bus will keep your carbon dioxide emissions down and show the kids
there are other fun ways of traveling.
Take a walk in nature.
Perhaps the most obvious Earth Day activity is a nature walk.Make a list of things you'd like to
find and check them off on your walk.38 Go through the colors of the rainbow and try and find an
object in that color on your walk.
Attend a community activity.
Show your kids it's not just Mom and Dad who care about Earth Day.Tons of people will show
up for local events as well!39 We guarantee you will find some activities like a park clean-up,
recycling demos,or a tree-planting ceremony.
40
When it comes to taking care of Earth,we all need to do our share.Take your kids to the local
playground and give them each a pair of gloves and a small garbage bag.Task them with picking of
scraps of trash as fast as they can-whoever fills up their bag first,wins.Once you get back home,
enjoy some Earth Day movies.
A.Play the clean-up game.
B.Remember that every day can be Earth Day.
C.If you don't feel like making a list,try a color search.
D.Check out your newspaper the week leading up to the holiday.
E.On Earth Day,we realize what we can do to preserve our natural resources.
F.And there are a lot more surprising facts about trees you can share with your kids.
G.Depending on where you live,this will bring varying degrees of problems to travel.
