三、阅读单选
Qingming Festival is a traditional Chinese festival for family to pay respect (尊敬) to their ancestors (祖先). People visit their ancestors’ grave sites and offer food, drinks and flowers. There are some Chinese poems showing Chinese history and culture through ancient expressions. Here we look at one of the classic poems in the history of Chinese literature:
A drizzling rain falls like tears on the Mourning Day;
The mourner’s heart is going to break on his way.
Where can a wineshop be found to drown his sad hours
A cowherd points to a cot amid apricot flowers.
In China, around the time of Qingming Festival, there is more rain. The poet is traveling far away from home on these rainy days. The rain and lonely walks lead to the separation of the soul (灵魂) and body, which adds a sad feeling to this poem. The writer, Du Mu describes a rainy scene in a village in the first two lines. Then in the last two lines, the poet wants to find a place to take a rest, drink some wine (酒) and get away from the sad feeling. Where can I find a good tavern In the last line, a cowherd points to a direction (方向), which describes two people looking far ahead on the rainy day.
In this poem, Du Mu presents a village with apricot flowers around as the direction of the tavern. He doesn’t describe its feature on a rainy day but leaves it to the readers’ imagination.
Qingming is not only a sad festival, but can also be a happy time for people to enjoy the spring and get closer to nature in an outing. Trees are green and flowers are blooming, so it’s a good time to be outside.
31.The Chinese title of this poem is “________”.
A.《清明》 B.《咏柳》 C.《春望》 D.《秋思》
32.The weather on Qingming Festival is always ________.
A.snowy B.windy C.cold D.rainy
33.The poet wants to find a place to ________.
A.make friends B.eat some food C.drink some wine D.buy a raincoat
34.A cowherd may mean ________.
A.a boy who sits on the cow B.a place where the cow lives
C.a person who herds the cow D.a place where the cow eats grass
35.We can ________ on Qingming Festival according to the writer.
A.offer food, drinks and flowers to old people
B.pay respect to our ancestors and enjoy the spring
C.feel sad all day and drink some wine with family
D.find a beautiful place with a lot of flowers around
In Britain, Boxing Day is usually celebrated 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 of Britain. When Boxing Day falls on a Saturday or Sunday, the following Monday is the public holiday.
The exact origin(起源) of the holiday is unclear. One of the thoughts is that during the Middle Ages, when great sailing ships were setting off to discover new land, a Christmas Box was placed by a priest(神父) on each ship. Those sailors who wanted to ensure 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 exchange for the saying of a mass of thanks for the success of the sailing. The priest wouldn’t open it to share the contents with the poor until Christmas.
One more thought is about the “Alms Box” placed in every church on Christmas Day. Worshipers(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(捐赠) 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.
36.If Christmas Day is on Saturday, Boxing Day will be celebrated on .
A.December 25th
B.December 26th
C.December 27th
D.December 28th
37.Sailors dropped money into the Christmas Box in order to .
A.save the poor
B.pay for the priest
C.discover new land
D.pray for sailing safety
38.What does the underlined phrase “sealed up” mean in Chinese
A.密封 B.悬挂
C.归还 D.传递
39.The following activities can show the traditional spirit of Boxing Day EXCEPT .
A.offering gifts to the poor
B.supporting families in need
C.spending time with family
D.giving money to aid food banks
40.The purpose of the passage is .
A.to praise the kindness of priests
B.to introduce the origins of Boxing Day
