主题语境——人与社会之传统节日
[导读] 元宵节是中国重要的传统节日,已有2000多年的历史。今天,在国内外,这个节日仍十分受欢迎。这一天,有中国人的地方都会举行一些庆祝活动。
The Lantern Festival
The Lantern Festival falls on the 15th day of the 1st lunar month, usually in February or March in the Gregorian calendar. As early as the Western Han Dynasty, it had become a festival of great significance.
Today, the Lantern Festival is still held each year around the country. Lanterns of various shapes and sizes are hung in the streets, attracting countless visitors. “Guessing lantern riddles” is an essential part of the festival. Lantern owners write riddles on a piece of paper and post them on the lanterns. If visitors have solutions to the riddles, they can pull the paper off and go to the lantern owners to check their answers. If they are right, they will get a little gift.
People will eat yuanxiao, or rice dumplings on this day, so it is also called the “Yuanxiao Festival”. Yuanxiao also has another name, tangyuan, which in Chinese has a similar pronunciation with “tuanyuan”, meaning reunion, harmony and happiness for the family.
In the daytime of the festival, performances such as a dragon lantern dance, a lion dance, and a yangge dance will be staged.
On the night, except for magnificent lanterns, fireworks form a beautiful scene. Most families spare some fireworks from the Spring Festival and let them off on the Lantern Festival. Some local governments will even organize a fireworks party. On the night when the first full moon enters the New Year, people become really lost in the magnificent fireworks and bright moon in the sky.

A
The Fire Festival is celebrated in northern Ghana. It’s a holiday we had never heard of before we came to live in a village here as Peace Corps community volunteers. It’s unbelievably great.
On the Fire Festival—Bugim Chugu in the local language—drums beat a quick and regular rhythm that locals dance to in a circle of bodies, men and women, the old and young, holding torches of burning grass above their heads, which stands for the light and getting off negative energies.
At this moment, this festival is being held at the beginning of the lunar year. The locals are all so involved in the celebration that they don’t pay as much attention to us as they normally will. When they find us getting involved as they are, they dance more vigorously and scream with joy.
Danielle, a friend of mine in the Peace Corps, says, “That we join in the celebration is significant because foreigners here are typically seen as the representatives of other organizations, not as people who are willing to join in the Fire Festival rituals (仪式). But in fact, we are dancing and celebrating as one.”
Our two-year Peace Corps service will finish up in mid-November. We can think of no better way to say goodbye than by celebrating the Fire Festival with the villagers we’ve come to know. The festival lets us see a different side of them—and lets them see a different side of us. The neighbours who sell rice are now the women who urge us to run faster and dance harder at the Fire Festival. And rather than view us as low-key (低调的) volunteers, they see us as the ones who have crazy dance steps with wild screams.
( )1.Why did the author go to northern Ghana
A.To find a job.
B.To go travelling.
C.To study further.
D.To do voluntary work.
( )2.How do the locals feel when seeing the author and Danielle join in the celebration
A.Annoyed. B.Excited.
C.Confused. D.Worried.
( )3.What is the last paragraph mainly about
A.The steps to dance well.
B.How the locals celebrate the Fire Festival.
C.How the author and Danielle help the locals sell rice.
D.The reason why the author and Danielle joined in the festival.
( )4.What can we learn from the text
A.Practice makes perfect.
B.Where there is a will, there is a way.
C.When in Rome, do as the Romans do.
D.The grass is always greener on the other side.
B [2024·江西宜春高一月考]
Diwali (Deepavali) is a festival of lights observed in October or November each year in Canada. During the festival, various community groups, businesses, schools and associations celebrate it in different ways. Some companies have Diwali dinners and some communities organise gatherings that feature firework displays, dances, street lighting, and plays.
Many women wear fine jewellery and silk outfits to celebrate Diwali. Some women and girls use mehendi, a dye decoration which can last a limited time, on their palms, and then they will finally get colourful hand paintings. Many homes that celebrate Diwali have various types of sweets, salty and spiced food as well as Diwali herbs (香草). Various lights, candles and sparklers are lit inside and outside homes, particularly in courtyards, on Diwali. Diwali is not a nationwide public holiday in Canada, but it is a prevalent festival celebrated in many towns and cities. There may be traffic jams and parking places may be full in areas where events are held to celebrate Diwali. Some businesses may close early on Diwali.
Diwali is called the “Festival of Lights” and is celebrated to honour Rama, a hero who once fought and won a battle against the demons (恶魔). In the past, people lit their houses to celebrate his victory over demons (light over darkness). At the same time, every household did careful and complete cleaning at home in advance. It is believed that the goddess of happiness and good fortune, Lakshmi, travels around the Earth on this day and enters the house that is pure, clean, and bright.
Diwali celebrations may vary in different communities but its spiritual meaning is generally “the awareness of the inner light”. As the word “Deepavali” means “a row or cluster of light”, the festival symbolises the victory of righteousness and the lifting of spiritual darkness.
( )5.What can we learn about Diwali from the first two paragraphs
A.It is celebrated on a fixed day.
B.It centres on various local foods.
C.People stay up late to prepare for it.
D.People from all walks of life enjoy celebrating it.
( )6.What does the underlined word “prevalent” in Paragraph 2 probably mean
A.Popular. B.Free.
C.Serious. D.Funny.
( )7.According to Paragraph 3, why did people make their houses bright and clean on Diwali
A.To pray for a good journey.
B.To expect joy and good luck.
C.To create a romantic atmosphere.
D.To welcome their friends to visit.
( )8.What is the author’s purpose in writing this passage
A.To stress the importance of a public holiday.
B.To tell an interesting story about a Canadian festival.
C.To briefly introduce a traditional festival in Canada.
D.To show different holiday celebrations in Western cultures.

The Fire Festival is celebrated in northern Ghana. It's a
holiday we had never heard of before we came to live in a
village here as Peace Corps community volunteers. It's
unbelievably great.
On the Fire Festival—Bugim Chugu in the local language—
drums beat a quick and regular rhythm that locals dance to in

a circle of bodies, men and women, the old and young, holding
torches of burning grass above their heads, which stands for the
light and getting off negative energies.
At this moment, this festival is being held at the beginning
of the lunar year. The locals are all so involved in the
celebration that they don't pay as much attention to us as they
normally will. When they find us getting involved as they are,
they dance more vigorously and scream with joy.

Danielle, a friend of mine in the Peace Corps, says, “That
we join in the celebration is significant because foreigners here
are typically seen as the representatives of other organizations,
not as people who are willing to join in the Fire Festival rituals
(仪式). But in fact, we are dancing and celebrating as one.”
Our two-year Peace Corps service will finish up in mid-
November. We can think of no better way to say goodbye than
by celebrating the Fire Festival with the villagers we've come to
know. The festival lets us see a different side of them—and lets

them see a different side of us. The neighbours who sell rice
are now the women who urge us to run faster and dance
harder at the Fire Festival. And rather than view us as low-key
(低调的) volunteers, they see us as the ones who have crazy
dance steps with wild screams.

decoration which can last a limited time, on their palms, and
then they will finally get colourful hand paintings. Many homes
that celebrate Diwali have various types of sweets, salty and
spiced food as well as Diwali herbs (香草). Various lights,
candles and sparklers are lit inside and outside homes,
particularly in courtyards, on Diwali. Diwali is not a nationwide
public holiday in Canada, but it is a prevalent festival celebrated
in many towns and cities. There may be traffic jams and parking
places may be full in areas where events are held to celebrate
Diwali. Some businesses may close early on Diwali.

Diwali is called the “Festival of Lights” and is celebrated to
honour Rama, a hero who once fought and won a battle
against the demons (恶魔). In the past, people lit their houses
to celebrate his victory over demons (light over darkness). At
the same time, every household did careful and complete
cleaning at home in advance. It is believed that the goddess of
happiness and good fortune, Lakshmi, travels around the Earth
on this day and enters the house that is pure, clean, and bright.

Diwali celebrations may vary in different communities but its
spiritual meaning is generally “the awareness of the inner light”.
As the word “Deepavali” means “a row or cluster of light”， the
festival symbolises the victory of righteousness and the lifting of
spiritual darkness.
