Little New Year usually falls a week before the lunar New Year.It is also known as the Festival of the Kitchen God,the deity(神) who oversees the moral character of each household.Here are six things you should know about the Little New Year,another sign of the start of spring.
1.Offer sacrifices to Kitchen God
One of the most distinctive traditions of the Little New Year is the burning of a paper image of the Kitchen God,who will report on the family’s conduct over the past year.The offerings to the Kitchen God include pig’s head,fish,sweet bean paste,melons,fruit,boiled dumplings,barley sugar,and Guandong candy.Most of the offerings are sweets of various varieties.It is thought that this will seal the Kitchen God’s mouth and encourage him to only say good things about the family when he ascends to heaven to make his report.
2.House cleaning
According to Chinese folk beliefs,during the last month of the year ghosts and deities must choose either to return to Heaven or to stay on Earth.It is believed that in order to ensure the ghosts and deities’ timely departure people must thoroughly clean both their persons and their houses,down to every last drawer and cupboard.
3.Paste paper-cuts to windows
In the Little New Year,old couplets and paper-cuts from the previous Spring Festival are taken down,and new window decorations,New Year’s posters,and auspicious(吉利的) decorations are pasted up.
4.Bath and hair-cut
As the old Chinese saying goes,whether they’re rich or poor,people often have a haircut before the Spring Festival.The activity of taking bath and haircut is often taken on the Little New Year.
5.Preparations for the Spring Festival

More and more people around the world are getting tattoos(文身). In the United States a large number of people aged 25 to 40 get tattoos. A third of all Americans between 18 and 25 have a tattoo.In Britain a fifth of all adults are tattooed.Tattooing has become an important industry as well. Today, there are more than 50，000 tattoo artists in the U．S. alone.
Even famous people such as Angelina Jolie and David Beckham have some kind of tattoo on their bodies. According to researchers many people tattoo themselves as a sign of individuality(个性)．They want to express themselves and show others who they are. Other forms of body art are also on the rise.
Today, tattoos are widely accepted in society. That hasn’t always been the case.Tattoos used to be connected with criminals(罪犯), lower class people or certain groups like sailors and motorcycle gangs. While tattooing was once only for men, more and more women are now getting tattoos.
Tattooing goes way back in history.In many parts of the world, people used tattoos for different purposes. The ancient Romans tattooed their slaves. Native Americans tattooed themselves as a sign of bravery. In Nazi Germany Jews were marked with a number to tell who they were.
Not only has tattooing itself become a big industry, but removing them is also on the increase. Many people just don’t realize that a tattoo lasts forever, and at some time in their lives they may want to get rid of it. The cost of tattooing yourself usually depends on how large the tattoo is or how complex(复杂的) it is. Prices are usually from a hundred to over a thousand dollars.
5．The numbers in Paragraph 1 are used to show that________.
A．tattoos are now very popular
B．many tattoo artists are moving to America
C．young adults have a preference for tattoos
D．it is against the law to get tattoos in Britain
6．What might be David Beckham’s attitude towards tattooing
A．He is worried about it.
B．He is interested in it.
C．He thinks little of it.
D．He has no idea of it.
7．We can learn from the text that tattooing________．
A．is still not accepted by women
B．usually costs a lot of money
C．is not good for our health
D．has a long history
8．It seems that the business of tattooing will________．
A．slow down B．disappear soon
C．continue growing D．become very hard
C
How many phone numbers can you remember by heart It’s probably fewer than you would like.Actually,you’re not alone.Out of more than 1,000 Americans who were surveyed,more than half said that they couldn’t recall the phone numbers of their friends and neighbors.And 44% said that they couldn’t remember their relatives’ phone numbers.In their eyes,there is no point in filling their heads with phone numbers if they’re all stored in smart phones that are with them almost all the time.
In fact,most people are suffering from a sort of digital amnesia(健忘症).More than 90% of those surveyed agreed that they used the Internet as an online extension of their brains.Rote memorization(死记硬背) was once an important part of modern education,but we just need a click or slide now.That’s making us worse at remembering things.
Researchers found that when people expected to have access to information online,they were less likely to remember actual facts,but more likely to remember how to find them.As a result,we are already becoming one with our computer tools,growing into interconnected systems that remember less by knowing information than by knowing where the information can be found.
However,some believe it isn’t necessarily a bad thing — maybe it gives them more chances to think through things.We certainly have access to more knowledge now than ever,even if it isn’t all stored in our brains.
Even so,I still believe that there are more risks to this new world of memory beyond losing our ability to recall some information such as who the 15th President was.That kind of information may always be a click away,but the important things are personal ones,like the way your parents smiled at your wedding.It’s harder to recall or find online.If you’re relying on yourself to keep track of those memories,they will be much more meaningful.
9.It can be learned from the text that .
A.over 90% people are suffering from digital amnesia
B.people can gain knowledge more easily than before
C.rote memorization no longer exists in modern life
D.people find it hard to remember how to find information
10.What’s the author’s attitude towards people’s memories now
A.Worried. B.Optimistic.
C.Disappointed. D.Confident.
11.Paragraph 1 is mainly used to .
A.serve as the background
B.introduce the topic
C.explain a new research
D.attract readers’ attention
12.What’s the main cause of people’s suffering from digital amnesia
A.Dealing with too many things.
B.Seldom thinking about questions.
C.Relying on the Internet too much.
D.The changes of their memories.
D

In 2002, an Australian man went to his friend’s 21st birthday party. He got drunk, fell off some steps and cut his lip. He took a picture of his injuries and shared it with his friends online. “And sorry about the focus，” he wrote, “it was a selfie(自拍)．” That was the first recorded use of the word “selfie”， according to some experts at Oxford Dictionaries.
Oxford Dictionaries declared “selfie” Word of the Year for 2013, in honor of the term having taken over the world thanks to millions of smart phone self portraits and the resulting shares on social media. In recent years, the act of taking a picture of oneself with a mobile phone, placing the subject center stage, has won great popularity with everyone from Britain’s Queen Elizabeth Ⅱ to US with former President Barack Obama joining in.
But the rise of selfie photography in some of the world’s most beautiful, dangerous places has also inspired a lot of risk taking behavior, such as hanging from a tall building, standing in front of a rushing train and crossing a busy street. People who get addicted will never stop taking selfies, completely ignoring where they are. In fact, there have been several reports about people losing their lives while taking selfies. Several governments have now begun treating selfie as a serious threat to safety, warning visitors to pay attention to the dangers when taking selfies.
“Walt Disney World is also banning selfie sticks from its theme parks because selfie sticks have become a growing safety concern for our guests，” Disney World spokeswoman Kim Prunty said. Under the new policy, guests will be checked for the equipment during the routine bag check that happens near the parks’ entrances.

第二节 概要写作（25分）
阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。
In 2002, an Australian man went to his friend’s 21st birthday party. He got drunk, fell off some steps and cut his lip. He took a picture of his injuries and shared it with his friends online. “And sorry about the focus，” he wrote, “it was a selfie(自拍)．” That was the first recorded use of the word “selfie”， according to some experts at Oxford Dictionaries.
Oxford Dictionaries declared “selfie” Word of the Year for 2013, in honor of the term having taken over the world thanks to millions of smart phone self portraits and the resulting shares on social media. In recent years, the act of taking a picture of oneself with a mobile phone, placing the subject center stage, has won great popularity with everyone from Britain’s Queen Elizabeth Ⅱ to US with former President Barack Obama joining in.
But the rise of selfie photography in some of the world’s most beautiful, dangerous places has also inspired a lot of risk taking behavior, such as hanging from a tall building, standing in front of a rushing train and crossing a busy street. People who get addicted will never stop taking selfies, completely ignoring where they are. In fact, there have been several reports about people losing their lives while taking selfies. Several governments have now begun treating selfie as a serious threat to safety, warning visitors to pay attention to the dangers when taking selfies.
“Walt Disney World is also banning selfie sticks from its theme parks because selfie sticks have become a growing safety concern for our guests，” Disney World spokeswoman Kim Prunty said. Under the new policy, guests will be checked for the equipment during the routine bag check that happens near the parks’ entrances.
