Hoop Rolling at Wellesley College
This all-women’s college tradition was originally held on May Day， but it’s now held in April. The purpose was to allow students to essentially leave all their worries behind and just participate in some interesting games outdoors. Back in the day， it was said that the winner of the hoop rolling race was the first to be married， and in the 1980s she would be the first to be CEO. Nowadays， the winner would be the first to achieve her own happiness ... that is， after being thrown into Lake Waban by all her classmates.
Fabric and Green Grad Recycling Program at University of New Hampshire
You’ll absolutely love this tradition. UNH’s vendor provides wrinkle-resistant caps and gowns made of recycled plastic bottles. Graduates then have the opportunity to donate their gowns to be cleaned and reused. Graduates are still able to keep their caps and tassels as keepsakes， all while helping to save the environment.

The Sister Rice Festival is held every year in Guizhou’s Taijiang County， where 97 per cent of the 168，000 people are from the ethnic （民族的） Miao group.It is an ancient tradition， which brings men and women together through food， gifts and music.
In the days before the festival， young women gather leaves and wild flowers， which they use to dye （给……染色） sticky rice with bright colours.This brightly coloured rice， known as Sister Rice， gives the festival its name.During the festival， the young women dress in beautiful traditional clothes with large amounts of silver jewelry （首饰）.
The festival includes parades， horse races and musical performances.But the real focus is the interaction between the young women and the young men who visit from surrounding villages and sing songs.In one traditional type of song， a man and a woman take turns to sing to each other， and the first one to make a mistake loses the game.The loser must give the winner a gift， but the winner is expected to give a gift in return， too.
After meeting the men， the women send them home with a bamboo basket containing dyed rice and hidden objects with special meanings.For example， a pair of chopsticks indicates that she wants to marry the man， while garlic shows that she is not interested.
One of several stories about the festival’s beginning is about a girl and a boy who fell in love.The girl’s parents wanted her to marry her uncle’s son.She refused， and the boy likewise refused to marry anyone else.For a time， they could only meet in a field and pass hidden messages to each other through rice in a bamboo basket.Finally， the pair overcame their parents’ opposition and were allowed to marry.
The Sister Rice Festival is perhaps the oldest festival in Asia that encourages love.

The annual Redhead Days Festival in Tilburg， Netherlands， drew thousands of red-haired people from around the world in August 2023. The three-day event is a celebration of red hair， a feature only shared by only 1%－2% of the global population. And although redheads can be found all over the world， the numbers are higher for people from the north of Europe， where the rate （比率） is between 2% and 6%.
For many attendees， like 30-year-old Scottish Liam Hunter， the festival is an opportunity to feel a sense of belonging and self-acceptance. Hunter， who has experienced bullying （霸凌） due to his hair colour， expressed a sense of satisfaction and unity at the event. “I don’t feel alone anymore. I feel together， a part of something，” he said.
The event， which attracted about 5，000 redheads from various countries， offered a range of activities including painting workshops， make-up and skincare knowledge， photo shoots， musical performances， and speed-meet events.
Interestingly， the festival’s start was somewhat accidental. Bart Rouwenhorst， an artist and the event’s organizer， placed an advertisement in the local newspaper in 2005 seeking 15 red-haired models for a painting project. Surprisingly， he received responses from 150 individuals. Although Rouwenhorst is not a redhead himself， he decided to organize a group photo with all the respondents. The gathering got much attention and was considered a success， leading the organizers to establish it as an annual event.
Now the festival serves as a special stage for redheads to celebrate their differences， develop a sense of community， and raise awareness about the challenges they face， such as bullying and increased sensitivity （过敏） to the sun. It also provides an opportunity for non-redheads to learn about and appreciate the uniqueness of red hair.
8.What can we learn from the first paragraph？（ ）
A.Redheads celebrate their festival with various activities.
B.Red hair is a common disease among the global population.
C.The Redhead Days Festival is celebrated around the world.
D.Population in northern Europe has a higher rate of redheads.
9.What does Hunter’s experience tell us？（ ）
A.The redheads enjoy a high social position.
B.The redheads take pride in their difference.
C.The redheads face discrimination sometimes.
D.The redheads have trouble keeping up with others.
10.What is Paragraph 4 mainly about？（ ）
A.The origin of the festival.
B.The popularity of the festival.
C.Customs during the festival.
D.Activities during the festival.
11.Which of the following can best describe the event？（ ）
A.Challenging. B.Informal.
C.Remarkable. D.Meaningless.

二、may/might的用法

三、must的用法
1.must表示推测
（1）must表示推测时意为“一定，肯定”，推测的语气最强。

—She can’t be at home.I saw her leave home ten minutes ago.She forgot to turn off the light.
——她房间的灯还亮着，她现在肯定在家。

一、can/could的用法
1. can/could表示推测
（1）can表示推测时，表示理论上的可能性，实际上并未发生。用
于疑问句和肯定句时，can意为“会，可能”；用于否定句
时，can’t表示“不可能”。
—Can he be our teacher？
—No，he can’t be our teacher.Our teacher is travelling
abroad.
——他有可能是我们的老师吗？
——不，他不可能是我们的老师。我们的老师正在国外旅游。
Even experienced teachers can also make mistakes.
甚至有经验的教师也可能出错。
（2）could表示推测时不仅可用于疑问句和否定句，还可用于肯定
句，could表示更加不确定的语气。
Don’t eat it.It could be poisonous.
不要吃它。它可能有毒。
The plane could be delayed by fog.
飞机可能会因为有雾而延迟。
（3）can’t/couldn’t可以推测现在的情况、正在发生的动作或过
去已经发生的动作。
can’t/couldn’t＋
That can’t be Mary — she’s in England.
那不可能是玛丽——她在英格兰呢。（现在）

这么晚了，他们现在不可能在图书馆里看书。（此刻）
He can’t have gone to Shanghai， for I saw him a minute ago.
他不可能去了上海，因为我刚才还看到他了。（过去）
2. can/could表示能力
can/could表示有能力做或能够发生，意为“能，会”。could是can
的过去式，即表示现在用can/can’t，表示过去用could/couldn’t。
I can speak French，but I can’t speak Japanese.
我会说法语，但不会说日语。
When I was young，I could climb any tree in the forest.
年轻时，森林里的树我都能爬上去。
3. can/could表示允许
can/could可表示允许，意为“能，可以”。在疑问句中could可代
替can，语气更委婉。注意在回答中不可用could，通常用can。
—Could/Can I use your pen？
—Of course，you can.
——我可以用一下你的钢笔吗？
——当然可以了。

couldn’t have attended
can’t have gone
can/could
二、may/might的用法
1. may/might表示推测
（1）may/might表示把握不大的推测，用于肯定句和否定句，不能
用于疑问句。might不表示过去的时态，只是语气上比may更
委婉，表示的可能性更小。
He may be very busy these days.
他这些日子可能很忙。
—Are you coming to Mary’s birthday party？
—I’m not sure.I might go to the concert instead.
——你会来参加玛丽的生日聚会吗？

2. may/might表示征求同意或许可
may/might可表示征求同意或许可（在疑问句中表示“征求同
意”，在陈述句中表示“许可”），意为“可以”。表示征求同意
时，might比may的语气更委婉。一般疑问句的肯定回答用
may/can，但作出否定回答时要用can’t/mustn’t，表示“不可
以，禁止”。
You may keep the book for two weeks.
这本书你可以借两个星期。
—May I watch TV after supper？

free time to write your life’s work， yet still this is often not enough.

may have spent
三、must的用法
1. must表示推测
（1）must表示推测时意为“一定，肯定”，推测的语气最强。
（2）must表示推测时只能用于肯定句，不可用于否定句和疑问
句。如果表示“一定不，肯定不”，应用can’t，不能用
mustn’t。mustn’t表示“禁止”。
—The light in her room is still on；she must be at home now.
—She can’t be at home.I saw her leave home ten minutes
ago.She forgot to turn off the light.
——她房间的灯还亮着，她现在肯定在家。
——她不可能在家。十分钟前我看见她离开家了。她忘记关
灯了。
（3）must表示推测时，可以推测现在的情况、正在发生的动作或
过去已经发生的动作。
must＋

长途劳顿，你一定很累吧。（现在）
It’s twelve o’clock.They must be having lunch.
现在是12点，他们一定正在吃午饭。（此刻）
Our house must have been broken into while we were asleep.
我们睡着时，房间一定让贼破门而入了。
2. must表示义务、命令等
must还可表示义务、命令等，意为“必须”，语气比should强烈。
其否定形式为mustn’t，意为“一定不要；不准，禁止”。回答含
有must的问句时，肯定回答多用must；否定回答多用needn’t或
don’t have to。
—Must I finish my homework before eight o’clock？
—Yes， you must./No，you needn’t/don’t have to.
——我必须要在8点之前完成作业吗？
——是的，必须。/不，没必要。

Crazy-Creative Traditions in Schools
Here are a few schools’ crazy-creative traditions that will probably
have you wish to go there so you could celebrate in all the graduation fun.
Learn about them all in the below.
You fashionista will love this one. During December ceremony，
women wear black dresses and men wear black tuxedos （燕尾服）.
During May ceremony， women wear white dresses and men wear
summer tuxedos. It’s also been a tradition since the 1930s to carry
flowers onto the stage： women carry bouquets of six red roses in a red
bow and men wear a single red rose boutonniere （胸花）. So classy！
Attire （服装） and Flowers at College of Charleston
Hoop Rolling at Wellesley College
This all-women’s college tradition was originally held on May
Day， but it’s now held in April. The purpose was to allow students to
essentially leave all their worries behind and just participate in some
interesting games outdoors. Back in the day， it was said that the winner
of the hoop rolling race was the first to be married， and in the 1980s she
would be the first to be CEO. Nowadays， the winner would be the first to
achieve her own happiness ... that is， after being thrown into Lake
Waban by all her classmates.
Fabric and Green Grad Recycling Program at University of New
Hampshire
You’ll absolutely love this tradition. UNH’s vendor provides
wrinkle-resistant caps and gowns made of recycled plastic bottles.
Graduates then have the opportunity to donate their gowns to be cleaned
and reused. Graduates are still able to keep their caps and tassels as
keepsakes， all while helping to save the environment. The tradition has
become a trend for many universities to follow， such as Husson
University and Wake Forest University.

The Sister Rice Festival is held every year in Guizhou’s Taijiang
County， where 97 per cent of the 168，000 people are from the ethnic
（民族的） Miao group.It is an ancient tradition， which brings men and
women together through food， gifts and music.
In the days before the festival， young women gather leaves and wild
flowers， which they use to dye （给……染色） sticky rice with bright
colours.This brightly coloured rice， known as Sister Rice， gives the
festival its name.During the festival， the young women dress in beautiful
traditional clothes with large amounts of silver jewelry （首饰）.
The festival includes parades， horse races and musical
performances.But the real focus is the interaction between the young
women and the young men who visit from surrounding villages and sing
songs.In one traditional type of song， a man and a woman take turns to
sing to each other， and the first one to make a mistake loses the
game.The loser must give the winner a gift， but the winner is expected to
give a gift in return， too.
After meeting the men， the women send them home with a bamboo
basket containing dyed rice and hidden objects with special meanings.For
example， a pair of chopsticks indicates that she wants to marry the
man， while garlic shows that she is not interested.
One of several stories about the festival’s beginning is about a girl
and a boy who fell in love.The girl’s parents wanted her to marry her
uncle’s son.She refused， and the boy likewise refused to marry anyone
else.For a time， they could only meet in a field and pass hidden
messages to each other through rice in a bamboo basket.Finally， the pair
overcame their parents’ opposition and were allowed to marry.
The Sister Rice Festival is perhaps the oldest festival in Asia that
encourages love.

The annual Redhead Days Festival in Tilburg， Netherlands， drew
thousands of red-haired people from around the world in August 2023.
The three-day event is a celebration of red hair， a feature only shared by
only 1%－2% of the global population. And although redheads can be
found all over the world， the numbers are higher for people from the
north of Europe， where the rate （比率） is between 2% and 6%.
For many attendees， like 30-year-old Scottish Liam Hunter， the
festival is an opportunity to feel a sense of belonging and self-acceptance.
Hunter， who has experienced bullying （霸凌） due to his hair colour，
expressed a sense of satisfaction and unity at the event. “I don’t feel
alone anymore. I feel together， a part of something，” he said.
The event， which attracted about 5，000 redheads from various
countries， offered a range of activities including painting workshops，
make-up and skincare knowledge， photo shoots， musical
performances， and speed-meet events.
Interestingly， the festival’s start was somewhat accidental. Bart
Rouwenhorst， an artist and the event’s organizer， placed an
advertisement in the local newspaper in 2005 seeking 15 red-haired models
for a painting project. Surprisingly， he received responses from 150
individuals. Although Rouwenhorst is not a redhead himself， he decided
to organize a group photo with all the respondents. The gathering got
much attention and was considered a success， leading the organizers to
establish it as an annual event.
Now the festival serves as a special stage for redheads to celebrate
their differences， develop a sense of community， and raise awareness
about the challenges they face， such as bullying and increased sensitivity
（过敏） to the sun. It also provides an opportunity for non-redheads to
learn about and appreciate the uniqueness of red hair.
