South Korea's preservation of Chuseok,a major harvest festival,exemplifies this.Families travel great distances to their ancestral homes to perform rituals for their forebears,share food,and participate in folk games.The govemment actively supports this by designating official holidays and funding cultural events.In Japan,the celebration of Shichi-Go-San,a rite of passage for three-and seven-year-old girls and five-year-old boys,involves dressing children in elaborate kimonos,a practice that sustains traditional craftsmanship.These rituals are not merely historical re-enactments;they are vibrant social practices that reinforce family bonds and community ties. China presents a more complex picture.The Spring Festival,or Lunar New Year,remains the most important event,with massive migration across the country.Yet,the celebration of other festivals like the Double Seventh Festival(Qixi),once a day for young women to demonstrate needlework skills,has been rebranded as Chinese Valentine's Day,driven by commercial interests.This has led to a debate between purists,who lament the loss of original customs,and pragmatists,who argue that adapting to modern consumer culture ensures the festival's survival.The tension is not unique to China;it reflects a global challenge of how to keep traditions alive without freezing them in time. The resilience of festival culture often lies in its ability to evolve.For example,the Dragon Boat Festival has expanded beyond commemorating the poet Qu Yuan to include international dragon boat races. Similarly,the Mid-Autumn Festival,centered on mooncakes and family reunions,has seen new,health- conscious variations of the traditional pastry emerge.This adaptive process suggests that festivals are not static relics but living organisms that change with their environments.The key,perhaps,is finding a balance between honoring the past and embracing the present,ensuring that the core values of community,gratitude,and remembrance are not lost in the process of modemnization. ()1.What does the word "manifestations"in paragraph 1 most likely mean? A.Criticisms B.Interpretations C.Appearances D.Celebrations ()2.According to the passage,the preservation of Chuseok in South Korea is mainly supported by A.the strong demand from young people B.the financial backing of commercial companies C.the active involvement of the government D.the international recognition of the festival ()3.What is the main reason for the debate over the Double Seventh Festival in China?

C.Young people are showing no interest in celebrating it anymore. D.The government is trying to replace it with a Westemn holiday. ()4.What does the author mean by saying that festivals are "living organisms"in the last paragraph? A.They are fragile and can easily disappear. B.They have a biological structure similar to plants C.They are capable ofgrowth,change,and adaptation. D.They require constant care and attention to survive. ()5.Which of the following can be the best title for the passage? A.The Commercialization of Global Festivals B.Tradition vs.Modernity:The Future of Festivals C.A Comparison of East Asian Harvest Festivals D.How to Preserve the Core Values of Festivals Passage 2 The Dia de los Muertos,or Day of the Dead,a Mexican holiday observed on November 1st and 2nd,is often misunderstood as a morbid celebration of death.In reality,it is a vibrant affumation of life,a time when families welcome back the souls of their deceased relatives for a briefreunion.The core beliefis that death is not an end,but a continuation of life in another realm,and that the spirits of the dead are eager to return home to visit their living loved ones. Preparations begin weeks in advance.Families create elaborate offendas(altars)in their homes or at gravesites.These are not altars for worship but for remembrance.They are adomed with bright orange marigolds-the cempasuchilwhose strong scent and vibrant color are believed to guide the spirits home.The altars are layered with offerings:the favorite foods and drinks of the departed,photographs, candles,sugar skulls,and personal mementos.The air is filled with the aroma of pan de muerto(bread of the dead)and incense. The celebration is deeply communal.In villages and cities,people flock to cemeteries,cleaning and decorating graves,often spending the entire night there amidst music,laughter,and storytelling.It is a time to share memories and tell anecdotes about the departed,keeping their legacies alive.The iconic symbol of the holiday,the calavera(skeleton)figure,often depicted as a "Catrina"(a elegantly dressed female skeleton),is a satirical reminder of the universal fate that awaits everyone,regardless of wealth or status.It is a tool for humor,not horror,used to mock death and reduce the fear of it. This unique worldview is a blend of indigenous Aztec traditions,which honored the dead for centuries, and the Catholic rituals brought by Spanish colonizers.The merging of these two cultural streams created a syncretic festival that is distinctly Mexican.While Halloween,with its emphasis on fear and horror,has also influenced the modem celebration,the Day of the Dead maintains its own distinct philosophy.It does not shy away from death but embraces it as a natural part of the human experience.Ultimately,the festival serves a powerful social function:it reinforces family bonds across generations and provides a collective mechanism for processing grief through joyful remembrance. ()1.According to the passage,the primary pupose of building an ofenda is to A.worship the spirits of the dead B.guide the dead home with offerings C.scare away evil spirits and bad luck D.show off the family's wealth and status ()2.Why are marigolds used extensively in the Day of the Dead celebrations? A.They are the cheapest flowers available in the market. B.They are believed to have a smell that repels insects. C.They are thought to help the spirits find their way home. D.They are the favorite flowers of the indigenous Aztecs. ()3.The author describes the calavera as a"satirical reminder'"to show that A.the holiday treats death with seriousness and respect B.the holiday uses humor to deal with the concept of death C.the holiday is heavily influenced by Halloween customs D.the holiday is mainly focused on the wealth of the deceased ()4.The word "syncretic"in paragraph 4 most likely means A.outdated B.divided C.contradictory D.blended ()5.What can be inferred about the social function of the Day of the Dead? A.It is a private family event that excludes the community. B.It helps societies cope with the reality of death collectively C.It has lost its original meaning due to commercialization. D.It is becoming less popular among younger generations. 二、完形填空 In many cultures,the coming of age is not just a biological event but a significant social transition marked by elaborate ceremonies.These rites of passage are designed to 1.the individual from childhood into the responsibilities and privileges of adulthood,and they often involve tests of endurance, knowledge,or courage. For the Satere-Mawe people of the Amazon,the ritual involves a particularly 2. challenge. Young boys,as a rite of passage,must wear gloves filled with bullet ants-insects known for having one of the most painful stings in the insect world.The boys must endure the pain for ten minutes,and they must 3. a state of calm.This process is repeated over the course of several months.The purpose is not simply to prove strength but to teach the young men discipline,perseverance,and a respect for the natural world that sustains their community. In contrast,the bar and bat mitzvah ceremonies in Judaism focus on intellectual and spiritual maturity.At the age of 13 for a boy (bar mitzvah)and 12 for a girl (bat mitzvah),the child is 4. as a member of the adult Jewish community.The central act is the first public reading of a section from the Torah.This event is a culmination of years of study,demonstrating that the individual can understand and 5. the religious laws and traditions of their faith. Yet,not all coming-ofage ceremonies are defined by such grand,formal events.In Japan,the Coming of Age Day (Seijin no Hi)is a national holiday to congratulate those who have tumned 20 in the past year Young people attend ceremonies 6. in formal attire-kimonos for women and suits for men. While less intense than the Satere-Mawe ritual,this event serves a similar social function:it 7. the individual's new status in society.It is a day for public recognition,a collective nod from the community that a new adult has 8. These varied ceremonies reveal a universal human need to mark the passage of time in a meaningful way. 9. the specific customs differ,the underlying purpose is often the same:to 10. the individual's identity within the larger social fabric.They provide a clear,structured path through life's major transitions,11. the often-chaotic process of growing up.By enduring a physical trial, mastering a sacred text,or simply putting on a special outfit,the individual is 12. into the community,and the community,in turn,reaffirms its own values and continuity. 1.A.separate B.remove C.transfer D.protect 2.A.pleasant B.complex C.simple D.intense 3.A.maintain B.ignore C.avoid D.create 4.A.ignored B.recognized C.refused D.criticized 5.A.question B.challenge C.preseive D.practice 6.A.hidden B.dressed C.hidden D.covered 7.A.denies B.hides C.acknowledges D.questions 8.A.disappeared B.failed C.anived D.struggled 9.A.Because B.If C.Unless D.While 10.A.weaken B.strengthen C.forget D.ignore 11.A.structuring B.confusing C.disorganizing D.destroying 12.A.excluded B.integrated C.separated D.isolated 三、阅读短文回答问题 Read the following passage and answer the questions in complete sentences. The modern phenomenon of"festival tourism"has transformed how people experience cultural celebrations.Instead of being a local,communal event,many major festivals are now global attractions, drawing millions of international visitors.This shift brings both significant economic benefits and complex cultural challenges.Host cities often see a surge in revenue from hotels,restaurants,and transportation.The annual Oktoberfest in Munich,for instance,attracts over six million visitors, generating billions of euros for the local economy.Similarly,the Rio Camival injects massive amounts of money into Brazil's tourism sector. However,the influx of tourists can fundamentally alter the nature of a festival.Local traditions may be simplified or performed for a paying audience,leading to a loss of authenticity.The sacred or intimate moments of a ritual can be overshadowed by the spectacle and the demands of a global audience.For example,the famous Running of the Bulls in Pamplona,Spain,has been criticized for becoming more of a tourist spectacle than a religious and cultural event.The focus shifts from communal participation to passive observation. Furthermore,the sheer volume of people can strain local infiastructure and cause friction between residents and visitors.Locals may feel that their cultural heritage is being commodified and that they are being pushed out from their own celebrations.This tension is a growing concern for many UNESCO World Heritage sites and traditional festivals.The key to sustainable festival tourism lies in careful management.This involves limiting visitor numbers,promoting off-season travel,and,most importantly, ensuring that the local community remains at the heart of the event and retains control over its representation. 1.What are the two main aspects of festival tourism mentioned at the beginning of the passage? 2.According to the passage,what is a major risk that a festival faces due to the influx of tourists? 3.Why is the Running of the Bulls in Pamplona given as an example in the passage? 4.How does the passage define"sustainable festival tourism'? 5.What does the word "commodified"in the last paragraph most likely mean? 四、短文填空 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 Chinese New Year,also known as the Spring Festival,is the most important traditional festival in China.

I spent the evening with my family in our garden,enjoying the full harvest moon.The atmosphere was warm and serene.We shared mooncakes,which are round like the moon and symbolize reunion.My grandmother told me the ancient legend of Chang'e flying to the moon,a story that has been passed down for generations. This festival holds special meaning for me because it's not just about the beautiful moon,but about family unity and gratitude.Despite our busy lives,this tradition gives us a dedicated time to stop,gather,and appreciate the people we love.It reminds me that family is the most important part of life. I hope this letter gives you a glimpse into our wonderful traditions.Looking forward to hearing about your festivals,too！ Yours, Li Hua
