Down in Oaxaca,Mexico,there is a special festival on December 23rd called la Noche de Rábanos,or the Night of the Radishes(萝卜之夜).Every year,people from all over the state display their amazing radish sculptures.Both Oaxacans and tourists wait excitedly for the 23rd,and line up starting in the afternoon to see the year’s art.
Over a hundred years ago,there was a market held on December 23rd called la Vigila de Navidad.It was a special Christmas market for people to buy ingredients,decorations,and so on.Vendors(摊贩) at this market would carve(雕刻) radishes to decorate their stalls.The carved radishes became very popular,and people started to buy them as Christmas decorations.Over the years,it is said,the vendors would compete to see who could make the best sculptures.Finally the tradition has become today’s yearly festival which draws tourists from all over the world.
The radishes used in the festival are bigger than normal (up to 3kg),and are harvested just a week beforehand.There are two types of sculptures:traditional designs and “free” designs.The traditional designs include Christmas scenes or designs related to Oaxaca.Free designs can be anything,but sometimes include famous people and animals.There are also two other types of plant sculptures,one made from flowers,another made from cornhusk.
As you walk through the rows of radish art you’ll hear live music,and you can even see fireworks at the end.Close by there is delicious street food,Christmas markets,and many galleries and stores,all decorated with lights.
For people wanting to travel for Christmas,Oaxaca is an excellent place to visit.There are lots of different events along with the Night of the Radishes.The weather in December is usually warm (20℃ on average),and the sky is often sunny and cloudless.It’s a perfect vacation place for people coming from wintery climates.

As you’re packing up your Christmas decorations,you might be wondering which type of tree is actually better for the environment;a real one or a synthetic(合成的) one made out of plastic While the answer isn’t as simple as you might think,one has slight advantages over the other.
Obviously,trees are good for the environment as they capture CO2,and store it inside of their branches,needles,and also roots.Christmas trees are the same.Christmas tree farming could actually have environmental benefits that you might not have thought of.It takes 10 years for Christmas trees to grow up to 6 feet.Over this decade,the trees house animals and also absorb CO2 from the atmosphere.
However,the way Christmas trees are planted can be difficult,especially when pesticides are used a lot and taking into consideration the fact that natural ecosystems(生态系统) are cleared out in order to make room for Christmas tree plantations.
If you prefer to have a real tree,you’d better find a local source in order to avoid shipping,which causes more carbon emissions(排放).It’s also really important to deal with them properly.If trees end up in landfills,they will have a negative environmental impact.The best way to deal with them is to cut them up and recycle them as wood chippings(木屑).
So what about those synthetic trees Of course,they can be used again and again year after year,but their major disadvantage is that they are typically made of PVC,which happens to be one of the most damaging plastics.It can also produce poisonous pollution,end up in animals’ bodies and even affect all up and down the food chain.It is also quite difficult to recycle.
So who’s the winner It seems that getting a real tree is surprisingly the better deal for the environment.Meanwhile,make sure you deal with it properly once the holiday season is over.
8.What can we know about real Christmas trees from the text
A.They are very difficult to find.
B.They can be recycled year after year.
C.They are damaged by too many pests.
D.They have more positive environmental impacts.
9.What should you do if you prefer to have a real tree
A.Pack it up when shipping.
B.Deal with it correctly.
C.Make it end up in the landfills.
D.Find a reliable source to get one.
10.What’s the author’s attitude to synthetic trees
A.Favorable. B.Satisfied.
C.Objective. D.Sensitive.
11.Why does the author write this text
A.To give ways of Christmas trees planting.
B.To tell how to protect natural ecosystems.
C.To offer suggestions on how to decorate Christmas trees.
D.To show which Christmas tree is more environmentally-friendly.

Popular decorations include red lanterns driving away bad luck,door couplets showing wishes for the coming year,and the character(fu) meaning good fortune.
Give hongbao or fruit
Hongbao,or a red envelope containing money,is a popular gift for adults to give children.
Fruit,especially tangerines or kumquats,are safe for friends.　5　 because the word for tangerine(ju) sounds similar to the Chinese word for luck(ji).

C.Make your house attractive
D.Spring Festival is a time for delicious food
E.A clock also stands for running out of time
