Friendship Day is a great day for celebrating friendship.It falls on the first Sunday of August every year.Celebrating the festival was firstly started by the US in 1935,when the US Congress decided to set a day to honor friends and friendship.Since then,celebration of National Friendship Day became an annual event.The idea of honoring the beautiful friendship was welcomed by the people,particularly the youngsters all over the country.But now this doesn't only happen in the US.People in other countries are interested in it,too.
The idea of spending the day with friends was spread all over the world.With more and more countries joining in the celebrations,Friendship Day became an international festival.
Between 1935 and 1997 Friendship Day didn't have a symbol（象征）,like Santa Claus for Christmas.However,in 1997,the United Nations named Winnie the Pooh as the world's Ambassador（大使） of Friendship.
The traditional celebrations include activities such as meeting with friends and exchanging（交换） cards,flowers and gifts.Some people may have parties with their friends.Some may have lunch or dinner together.Others may hang out or go to the movies with friends on this special day.These are popular among all age groups from teenagers to old people.
Although Friendship Day and its celebrations may have changed over the years,the basic idea behind the festival remains the same.People enjoy the moment they spend together and express love and care for their friends.Today,Friendship Day is being celebrated around the globe,across different cultures and social classes.

Friendship Day is a great day for celebrating friendship.It falls on the
first Sunday of August every year.Celebrating the festival was firstly
started by the US in 1935,when the US Congress decided to set a day to
honor friends and friendship.Since then,celebration of National Friendship
Day became an annual event.The idea of honoring the beautiful friendship
was welcomed by the people,particularly the youngsters all over the
country.But now this doesn't only happen in the US.People in other
countries are interested in it,too.
The idea of spending the day with friends was spread all over the
world.With more and more countries joining in the celebrations,Friendship

Friendship.
The traditional celebrations include activities such as meeting with
friends and exchanging（交换） cards,flowers and gifts.Some people may
have parties with their friends.Some may have lunch or dinner
together.Others may hang out or go to the movies with friends on this
special day.These are popular among all age groups from teenagers to old
people.
Although Friendship Day and its celebrations may have changed over
the years,the basic idea behind the festival remains the same.People enjoy
the moment they spend together and express love and care for their
friends.Today,Friendship Day is being celebrated around the globe,across
different cultures and social classes.

传统文化The Huazhao Festival is a traditional flower festival following the Lantern Festival.With a history of over 2,000 years,the Huazhao Festival was first held on flowers' birthday.Since the climate is different in different parts of China,people celebrate the festival on the 2nd,12th,15th or 25th day of the second lunar month.

At the festival,crowded fairs often appear early that day.There are lots of activities at the fair,such as dancing,playing music and playing games.
People also cut colorful cloth into pieces and tie them to the stems（茎） of flowers,which is called “shanghong”,as a protection of flowers.If the stems are too thin to stand the cloth,people would put a thin bamboo stick in the flower pot and tie a piece of red cloth to the stick.

传统文化 In 2006,the 24 solar terms were listed as a national-level intangible cultural heritage（非物质文化遗产） in China,and they were added to the UNESCO's intangible cultural heritage list in 2016.
The 24 solar terms are a knowledge system about time.They show the sun moves between the Northern Hemisphere（半球） and the Southern Hemisphere.In December,the sun is in the Southern Hemisphere.When June comes,the sun is in the Northern Hemisphere.After the 24 solar terms achieved recognition（认可） from UNESCO,an organization which spreads the cultural heritage of the 24 solar terms was set up.
“We want to spread and protect traditional culture as well as develop it in a creative way,” said the leader of the organization.Some experts did research,gave speeches and wrote books.Some groups organized some shows and competitions.A winner of the second place of a competition produced a long painting describing some customs related to each term.
“When creating this painting,I realized 24 solar terms affected people's lives.For example,in many places,people have the custom of celebrating the beginning of winter.When winter comes,agricultural activities end,so people wear new clothes to greet each other.It means many folk customs are closely related to agricultural activities,” he says.
“Neixiang County,Henan Province,has a history of giving a performance of dachunniu（beating the spring cow） to celebrate the beginning of spring.It also means the beginning of spring ploughing（耕地）.Farmers do their work according to the 24 solar terms,” he adds.
26.According to the passage,the 24 solar terms are about ________.( )
A. culture B. history C. time D. the sun
27.新考向跨学科知识Which of the following pictures shows the changes of the sun from the first to the last solar term ( )

A. ①②③④ B. ①②③ C. ②③④ D. ①②④
29.The underlined word “affected” in Paragraph 4 probably means “________”.( )
A. changed B. influenced C. ended D. decided
