drought().In 1915,April 5th was named as Tree Planting

project was started to 43 Gobi spreading.The government
and local farmers have been planting millions of trees to build a

In Britain,people celebrate Boxing Day on December 26th,
which is the following day after Christmas Day.However,
strictly speaking,Boxing Day is the first weekday after
Christmas.Like Christmas Day,Boxing Day is a public holiday.
This means it's a non-working day in the whole Britain.When
Boxing Day falls on a Saturday or Sunday,the following Monday
is the public holiday.
The exact origin()of the holiday is unclear.One of the
thoughts is that during the Middle Ages,when great sailing(
行)ships were setting off to discover new land,a priest(t神父)
placed a Christmas Box on each ship.Those sailors who wanted a
safe return would drop money into the box.It was sealed up and
kept on board until the ship came home safely.Then the box was
handed over to the priest in the exchange for the saying of a mass
of thanks for the success of the sailing.The priest wouldn't open
it to share the money with the poor until Christmas.
One more thought is about the "Alms Box"placed in every
church on Christmas Day..Worshippers(做礼拜的人)put gifts
for the poor into it.These boxes were always opened the day after
Christmas.That is why that day became known as Boxing Day.
Today,many businesses,organizations and families try to
keep the traditional spirit of Boxing Day alive by donating()
their time,services and money to Aid Food Banks,providing
gifts for the poor,or helping families in need.Besides,spending
time with family and shopping are popular Boxing Day activities now.
56.When will people celebrate Boxing Day if Christmas Day is on
a Saturday?
A.On December 25th.
B.On December 26th.
C.On December 27th.
D.On December 28th.
Module 2 Public holidays
57.Why did the sailors drop money into the Christmas Box?
A.Because they wanted to save the poor.
B.Because they wanted to pay for the priest.
C.Because they wanted to discover new land.
D.Because they wanted to pray for sailing safely.
58.What does the underlined phrase "sealed up"mean?
A.密封B.悬挂
C.归还
D.传递
59.Which activity can't show the traditional spirit of Boxing Day?
A.Offering gifts to the poor.
B.Supporting families in need.
C.Spending time with family.
D.Giving money to Aid Food Banks.
60.What's the purpose of this passage?
A.To praise the kindness of priests.
B.To introduce the origins of Boxing Day.
C.To call on people to help the poor.
D.To compare Boxing Day with Christmas Day.
