During Major Snow, the temperature drops greatly and there may be more snow days. The arrival of snow adds a delightful touch to the cold days. The snow in North China may go on a whole day, breaking tree branches and blocking the road while snow doesn't happen a lot,but just a little, great fun in the south. The natural scenery is "ice blockading for hundreds miles and snow flying through thousands miles","From hill to hill no bird in flight; From path to path no man in sight". In the south, the snowflakes fly around and the world turns white. There's a Chinese saying:"A fall of snow gives promise of a fruitful year." Most farmers welcome snow because snow can protect crops from cold fronts and keep the fields warm. Even if it melts(融化)，it can also provide enough water for the crops in the spring. Snow season is also good for skiing and skating. In northern China, there are many places for natural snow and ice. For example, Heilongjiang and Jilin provinces often already have big snow in November. People can also go to the frozen lakes to play ice sports. But people in the south will stay indoors to enjoy the winter activities. People in Chongqing like to have potted lamb soup or stewed lamb soup with their families and friends. People in Nanjing like to stew the lamb with yams or wolfberries to make it more delicious. ( )1. How does the writer describe the beauty of snow? A. By giving examples. B. By introducing activities. C. By showing pictures. D. By using sayings and poems. ( )2. What does the underlined sentence mean in Paragraph 4? A fall of snow can lead to a fruitful year. B. A fall of snow can be dangerous to a fruitful year. C.A fall of snow can help farmers harvest much fruit. D. A fall of snow can prevent farmers from a good harvest. ( )3. What can we know about Major Snow from the passage? A. During Major Snow, the temperature falls greatly. B. Major Snow is the most beautiful solar term among all. C.People in the north like to stay indoors to enjoy the winter activities. D. All the farmers like snow because it can offer enough water to the crops. ( )4. The following paragraph can go best after_________. During Major Snow, it is drier and colder, so people should drink more water. At the same time, don't drink cold water after exercise. A. Paragraph 2 B. Paragraph 3 C. Paragraph 4 dona D. Paragraph 5 C When the leaves begin to change their colours and the birds head south, we know the season is Retting to change. On September 7th comes White Dew, the 15th solar term of the year. It indicates（暗示）the beginning of the cool autumn. As the temperature falls, white dew is often seen on the grass and trees at night. For writers and poets, autumn is a difficult season to describe. It’s the end of the summer, and therefore a little sad. The days seem to get shorter, and when you wake in the morning, there’s mist（薄雾）and it’s cooler. Winter is just around the corner. American writer Ernest Hemingway wrote in his book A Moveable Feast, “You expected to be sad in the fall. Part of you died each year when the leaves fell from the trees and their branches were bare（光秃秃的） against the wind and the cold, wintry light.” But on the other hand, autumn has its good side. There are so many changes at this time of year, such as the colourful leaves and cooler nights. French writer Albert Camus even thought autumn was a second spring, “when every leaf is a flower”. This view is also found in the most famous autumn poem in English literature, To Autumn by John Keats. In that poem, Keats said that autumn had its own songs, just like spring. Another theme of this season is wisdom. The arrival of autumn is thought to be similar to a person becoming mature（成熟的）. The great Irish poet WB Yeats used this idea in his poem The Wild Swans at Coole, writing about the changing seasons in Coole Park in the west of Ireland. Seeing and counting 59 swans, he remembers first making the count as a young man. Seeing the swans do the same thing for all those years, he’s reminded that even though we get older, our hearts always stay the same age. ( )4. What can we know about White Dew from the passage? A. It is often talked about by writers and poets. B. It is the time of year with the most rainfall. C. It is when the temperature begins to drop. D. It indicates the end of the autumn. ( )5.A Moveable Feast was mentioned to _____. A. point out that autumn is very cold B. present the sad part of autumn C. show that winter will soon come D. express sadness about the end of life ( )6. What does "this idea" in the last paragraph refer to? A. Autumn is an important season for man. B. We can always stay young at heart. C. Autumn is related to one's growing old. D. Nature is full of lessons to be learned. ( )7. What's the article mainly about? A. The solar term White Dew. B. Why autumn is a sad season. C. Autumn weather and activities. D. Famous writers' description of autumn. 四、七选五(共5小题；每题2分,满分10分) The weather is getting cooler; the trees are turning brown-it's autumn! Why do leaves turn yellow? In autumn, leaves go from green to orange, red, yellow and brown. A chemical called chlorophyll（叶绿素）plays a role. 1 This feeds the trees and keeps the leaves green.

In August,it is very hot and wet in the southern part of the United States. People there have heart trouble and other kinds of health problems during this month. In the Northeast and the Middle West, it is very hot at some times and very cold at other times. People in these states have more heart trouble after the weather changes in February or March. The weather can also influence intelligence. For example, in a 1983 report by scientists, IQ of a group of students was very high when a strong wind came,but after the strong wind, their IQ was 10% lower. The wind can help people have more intelligence. Very hot weather, on the other hand, can make it lower. Students in many schools of the United States often get worse on exams in the hot months of the year(July and August). Weather also has a strong influence on people's feelings. Winter may be a bad time for thin people.They usually feel cold during these months. They might feel unhappy during cold weather. But fat people may have a hard time in hot summer. Low air pressure may make people forgetful. People leave more bags on buses and in shops on low-pressure days. People feel best at a temperature of about 18 °C.
