请阅读下面短文，根据短文内容，在方框内的缩写文章中，填入与短文意思最符合的单词。每空一词。
Most of us enjoy stories whether we're reading a book，watching a movie or listening to a friend tell a joke.Do you know that writing stories is actually good for you，too？National Writing Day is a yearly celebration of creative writing.It's also a chance to understand the benefits (益处) of creative writing.
Creative writing is based on your imagination.Fiction is a good example.It describes imaginary events and people and it can include novels and short stories，poems and songs are all good examples.
Many people find creative writing relaxing.According to the Anna Freud National Centre for Children and Families，writing about a character's feelings can make it easier to understand your own feelings.They also say that creative writing can be a useful tool for self care.Another benefit of creative writing is that it can build up your self esteem (自尊).It can help you realize that your words and thoughts are important and powerful.Children's author Mark Haddon says，“It's more than learning a skill.It's about learning that you，your family，your culture and your view of the world are important.”
For many people，creative writing offers a “time out” or escape (逃走) from real life，including their problems and worries.This space can help you to think differently about a problem you might have，or simply allow you to escape to a magical world.
National Writing Day is celebrated 9. a year.By celebrating it，people get to know that creative writing is good.Some people discover that they feel 10. . when writing fiction，poems and songs.That's because they can understand their own feelings more 11. ．And it helps raise their self esteem.When they write，they can realize what they say and 12. are important.As you can see，creative writing is good for you.It helps you to look at your 13. differently and then you deal with them differently.

五、阅读理解。
请阅读下面的非连续性文本，按要求完成所给任务。
After getting through a cold winter，people in northern China are looking forward to the coming spring.When it comes to April，there are more people traveling around their town or city to have fun.Enjoying the warm sunshine and the fresh air in the open air，they often say，“Traveling can always make us keep in a good mood.It also helps us to open up our eyes.” A relaxing travel on weekends helps them forget their problems and keep energetic in the next week.
However，it is not the best time for people to travel in April.The real great chance for all Chinese to enjoy traveling comes as the special day is getting close to them—China Tourism Day.A large number of scenic spots all over China are free to the tourists.As for some other ones，people can visit them by buying tickets at very low prices.
May 19 China Tourism Day
●First suggested on May 19th，2001
●Date of the great geographer and traveller Xu Xiake's first traveling writings
●To encourage people to “Love traveling，love life”
●Blue and green logo (a green lifestyle)
Even though there are lots of advantages of setting the day，few people can always enjoy the good sides of the great policy except the retired (退休).Some people even don't have a chance to make any choice about traveling.The top three reasons for it are shown in the chart.
Just as the working people do，we also don't always have a chance to travel on China Tourism Day.We don't have a day off if it is not a weekend.But the spirit of it，loving life，inspires us a lot.Love our life every day，and we will have a bright future.
China Tourism Day is a normal workday in some years.
Some people hate going to the crowds in the famous scenic spots.
Some have to stay at home to look after tiny babies.
24．Why are people in northern China looking forward to the coming spring
Because they want to travel around their town or city.
25．When is the best time for all Chinese to travel according to Paragraph 2
When China Tourism Day is getting close to them.
26．What is probably the purpose of setting up China Tourism Day
To encourage people to love life by traveling./To encourage people to live a green life.
27．Why can't some people travel on China Tourism Day？(One reason is OK.)
28．Do you like traveling？Why or why not
Because they have to work on that day./Because they hate going to the crowds in the famous scenic spots./Because they have to stay at home to look after their tiny babies.
Yes，I do.Because traveling makes my life colorful.

The Qingming Festival is also known as Tomb Sweeping Day，Ancestors' Day，or Pure Brightness Festival.It usually falls between early and late spring.The Qingming Festival has both natural and cultural meanings，serving as both a traditional holiday and a natural solar term (节气).The two main customs of the Qingming Festival are tomb sweeping and outing，which have been passed down since ancient times in China.
The ancient Chinese divided each solar term into three “hous”，or three phases，to describe the regular natural changes.There are 24 solar terms in total.For Qingming，the ancient Chinese noted “tung trees flower in the first hou，voles turn to quails in the second hou，and rainbows show up in the third hou.” (“一候桐始华；二候田鼠化为鹌；三候虹始见。”)
Now，the Qingming Festival is not only a time of sadness for many people，but a poetic and energetic festival.
On that day，people offer sacrifices to their ancestors and sweep their graves，which has become a fixed tradition of the Chinese nation over the generations.The specific customs of the Qingming Festival include：tomb sweeping，spring outing，cuju，playing polo (马球)，planting willows (插柳) and swinging.These traditional customs and activities not only enrich people's lives but also reflect the cultural heritage and folk customs of the Chinese nation.
