B Last summer vacation, I got a chance to volunteer as a guide at the local history and culture museum in my hometown, a small town with a 300-year history in the south of China. My main job was to introduce the old exhibits, including farming tools, traditional clothes, old photos and handwritten documents, to visitors and tell the stories behind them. At first, I was a little nervous because I knew little about the town’s history, but the museum keeper, an elderly man who knew everything about the town’s traditions, taught me a lot every day. He told me the origin of local festivals, the stories of ancient buildings and the meaning of traditional handicrafts, which made me more and more interested in the town’s history. With his patient guidance, I gradually knew all the knowledge about the museum’s exhibits and could introduce them to visitors fluently. One rainy afternoon, an old lady came to the museum and stopped in front of a set of traditional embroidery works for a long time. She told me that the works were made by her mother decades ago and shared her warm childhood memories of learning embroidery from her mother and celebrating traditional festivals with her family. I listened carefully and wrote down all her stories, which made me realize the true value of history and traditions. They are not just cold objects in the museum, but the precious memories of a generation. After the volunteer work, I no longer thought history was boring. Instead, I understood that history and traditions are the root of our culture. They connect us with our ancestors and shape who we are. I decided to learn more about local culture and try my best to protect and pass on these precious traditions. 24. What did the writer do during last summer vacation? A.

Small towns have no valuable history or traditional culture C. History and traditions are the fundamental part of a culture D. Traditional embroidery is the most precious folk art in China C Music is an important part of human life. It has existed for thousands of years, even earlier than written language. In ancient times, people used simple sounds and songs to express emotions like happiness or sadness, and to pass on stories to the next generation.

Pop music is popular among teenagers for its easy lyrics and lively tunes. Classical music, by composers like Mozart and Beethoven, lets people enjoy art. Folk music tells ordinary people’s life and culture, and rock music, full of energy, is loved by young people for its strong rhythm and expressive lyrics. Each type reflects the diverse tastes of music lovers worldwide. Today, the Internet and mobile phones make it easy to access music anytime, anywhere. Some people also learn to play instruments or sing in bands. Music brings people together too — at concerts or parties, people share joy through music, strengthening friendships and family ties. In fact, music is like a universal language. It touches hearts without words, enriches our lives, and connects people across cultures and generations, making the world more wonderful. 28.

D The Spring Festival is the most important traditional festival in China. It usually falls between late January and early February according to the lunar calendar. The celebration lasts for 15 days, ending with the Lantern Festival. Preparations for the Spring Festival start weeks in advance. Families clean their houses thoroughly to “sweep away bad luck”. They also paste red couplets on the doors and hang red lanterns, as red symbolizes good fortune. Shopping for new clothes and food is another important part of the preparations. People buy ingredients for the New Year’s Eve dinner, which usually includes dumplings, fish, and other dishes with special meanings. For example, fish represents “surplus” in Chinese, implying a prosperous year ahead. On New Year’s Eve, family members gather for a grand dinner. After dinner, they stay up late to welcome the new year, a tradition called “shousui”. At midnight, firecrackers are set off to scare away evil spirits and welcome good luck. On the first day of the new year, people visit relatives and friends to exchange greetings and give red envelopes with money to children.
