A
My good friend Carlos invited me to his birthday party. He moved to Canada from Mexico when he was a baby, but his parents tried to follow some of the Mexican traditions. At his party I saw my first pinata (彩盒). It looked like an animal and full of candies. People put it on the ceiling (天花板). Carlos hit (打) the pinata until it broke. All the candies fell on the floor, and we had a great time eating candies. Everyone shared. It was fun!
Carlos’s birthday party got me thinking about how kids in other places celebrate birthdays. Did you know that in Vietnam, everyone’s birthday is on the same day Kids do not celebrate on birthdays. Instead, on New Year’s Day, all the kids celebrate their birthdays. Parents give kids red envelopes (信封) with lucky money in them. What a great way to celebrate birthdays! In South Africa, kids do not celebrate every birthday. However, on their 21st birthday, their parents make a key. It can be made of paper or wood. Parents give their child this key. It is a sign from the parents that the child can now unlock the door to their future life.
In Japan, children get a new set of clothes on their birthdays. While in Italy adults (成年人) pull children’s ears—one pull for each year. In Denmark, a flag flies outside the window of a house where a child is having a birthday. When the child is asleep, adults put presents all around the child’s bed.

A．Candies. B．Food. C．Money. D．Keys.
27．What will adults do on children’s birthday in Italy
A．Make a paper key. B．Buy a new set of clothes.
C．Pull children’s ears. D．Prepare presents around beds.
28．Where do not kids celebrate their birthday on birthdays
A．In Mexico. B．In Japan. C．In Denmark. D．In Vietnam.

A．锁住 B．开启 C．关闭 D．抓住
30．What’s the best title of this passage
A．Different Birthday Presents B．Birthdays Around the World
C．What Kids Get on Their Birthdays D．What Carlos Did on His Birthday
B
The Double Ninth Festival is a special day for old people in China. It started long ago. 31 Activities a are held to show love and respect (尊敬) to old people.
Respecting old people is a tradition in China. That’s because the Chinese know that older people have knowledge and experience that young people can learn. 32
When an older person enters a room, everyone stands up, and people are introduced from the oldest to the youngest. When we present something to an older person, both hands are used. 33
In Western countries, however, older people seldom think they are old. 34 They’d rather do everything themselves. Even after retirement (退休), they take up hobbies, part-time jobs and new activities to keep their bodies working well. But of course among westerners, older people are respected too. Usually, seniors don’t have to buy tickets for trains or buses. They are given discount (折扣) in stores and restaurants.
35 For holidays, the families usually meet at their grandparents’ home, and a great smile and a warm hug for their parents are enough for grown-up children to show their respect.
根据材料内容，从下面七个选项中选出能填入文中空缺处的最佳选项，使文章意思通顺、内容完整（有两项多余）。
A．The festival has a short history.
B．The festival is on lunar September 9th.
C．Old people need more respect in Western countries.
D．They are called “seniors” instead of “old people”.
E．But Western seniors don’t often live with their children.
F．There are many ways in which Chinese people express their respect to the old.
G．Young people always offer their seats to older people on a crowded subway or bus.

People in different parts of the world eat different things. In South China people eat rice every day. Sometimes they eat it two or three times a day, for breakfast, lunch and supper. And people usually eat rice with fish, meat and vegetables.
The Japanese eat rice, too. They also eat a lot of fish because they live near the sea. It’s easy for them to get fish. Sometimes, they eat raw (生的) fish.

In Britain the most popular food is fish and chips. Sometimes people cook this kind of food at home, but they usually buy it at the shop.

If someone says to you, “give me five”, do not search your pocket to get five yuan! It will make others laugh! The person is not asking for your money, 51 your fingers.
