四、阅读理解。
(重庆月考)On a small and lonely island in the Pacific called Malden, people find something strange: many flat, heavy stones on the ground. On them, there is a carving of a person with a bird's head and wings, called the “birdman”. These stones are a mystery from long ago.
Western sailors first saw the stones in the 1800s. Later, a scientist named Dr Eleanor Vance studies the island. She learns that Polynesian people once lived there in a small group with a leader. They have a special place for ceremonies, like a stone platform. Most birdman stones stand there.
What does the birdman mean? One idea connects it to stories from other Polynesian places, like Easter Island. There, they have a “Birdman” competition every year. Dr Vance thinks the Malden stones are part of a similar idea. Also, the carvings are not all the same. This might mean different stones are for different families or events.
But another expert, Dr Kenji Tanaka, has a different idea. He says we cannot just use the Easter Island story. The birdman on Malden Island looks different—it often stands very still, like a guard. Also, near some stones, there are other carvings of stars, waves, and boats. Dr Tanaka thinks the birdman might be a symbol that connects different ideas. “Birds fly in the sky and travel far over the sea. People live on land,” he says. “The birdman is both. It could be a wise ancestor(祖先)who guides boats at sea. Or it could show how a leader must understand both his people and the powerful sea around them.”
Why are the stones there? They are very heavy, so the work is difficult. Dr Vance thinks they might mark land or remember important leaders. Dr Tanaka thinks they are sacred objects, used in special ceremonies when boys become men. Carving the hard stone may be a way to show respect.
The stones are still there today. They are like a book in a language we are still learning to read. They make us think about how those old people see their world on a small island in a very large ocean.
(A)1.What is the most likely meaning of the underlined word “ceremonies” in the passage?
A.Special activities that follow old traditions.
B.Children's games or plays.
C.Important public events or gatherings.
D.Buildings or houses of a group of people.
(B)2.Which of the following correctly describes the two experts' ideas in the text?
A.Both experts believe the Birdman stones were made from other islands.
B.Dr Vance thinks the stones are similar to Easter Island's tradition, while Dr Tanaka looks for a broader meaning.
C.Dr Tanaka thinks the stones were used in different ways for different families.
D.Both experts agree that the stones are meaningless carvings.
(C)3.What can we infer from the passage?
A.There was once a large city on Malden Island.
B.All the Birdman carvings look the same.
C.Dr Tanaka's ideas show the importance of the ocean environment to the islanders.
D.The writer claims to have found the one correct answer to the mystery.
(A)4.What is the best title for this passage?
A.The Unknown Mystery of the Birdman Stone
B.Birdman's Journey into the Ocean
C.Small Islanders' World and Lives
D.Why Human Makes Stones for Ceremonies
