A team of six trucks carrying 130 tons of tomatoes were driven through the town’s narrow streets on August 31,2022. The teams on board gave out the tomatoes among the cheering crowd for an hour-long frenzy.
The annual festival-named as “the world’s biggest food fight”—has become a main draw for foreigners in the world. But in 2022, only 15,000 of the 20,000 available tickets were sold as fewer people from Asia made the trip because of COVID-19 travel restrictions.
The bang of fireworks set off the fight at noon and within minutes the streets were full of red slush. Some people wearing goggles to protect their eyes bent down to pick up tomatoes from ground to throw, while others lay in the slush.
“We have come to the ‘Tomatina’ because it’s the funniest thing we have seen here,” Mexican tourist Patricio told the local television station.
Since 2013 visitors had to pay for their taking part in the festival. The town uses this method to control the growing numbers who would like to come to the event, which was last held in 2019 before the COVID-19 pandemic.
“We were really looking forward to starting our beloved party again. We wanted once again to throw tomatoes at each other and set free all the adrenaline(肾上腺素). We build up the adrenaline during the last two years.” said the town councilor for tourism Marla Valles. The food fight is followed by activities including concerts and contests which last into the night. The “Tomatina” started in 1945 when locals fighting in the street at a local festival took tomatoes from a store and then dropped them off in 2002 Spain’s tourism secretary named the event a “festivity of international tourist interest” because of its popularity. The “Tomatina” has encouraged similar celebrations in Colombia, Costa Rica, Chile and the US.
1．Why were only 15,000 available tickets sold in 2022
A．Because the town wasn’t big enough.
B．Because the festival wasn’t popular.
C．Because tickets were too expensive.
D．Because COVID-19 was still going on.
2．What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about
A．The place of the “Tomatina”
B．The scene of the “Tomatina”
C．The history of the “Tomatina”
D．The influence of the “Tomatina”
3．What does the underlined part “We build up the adrenaline during the last two years” mean
A．We were in bad health during the last two years.
B．We didn’t have any sports during the last two years.
C．We joined in the “Tomatina” during the last two years
D．We couldn’t hold the festival during the last two years.
4．The main purpose of the passage is to _______.
A．tell the importance of the food fight
