The 15th day of the eighth lunar month is the Mid-Autumn Festival.The festival celebrations date back more than 2，000 years.The word Mid-Autumn first appeared in the famous ancient book Zhou Li.It became an established festival during the Song Dynasty （960－1279）， and has become as popular as the Spring Festival since the Ming and Qing Dynasties.
It takes its name from the fact that it is always celebrated in the middle of the autumn season.The day is also known as the Moon Festival， as at that time of the year the moon is at its roundest and brightest.
This yearning for the moon among Chinese people can be traced back to a fairytale：“Chang’e Flies to the Moon.” What is the story about？

After the archer’s epic deeds， he gained instant fame and a large number of people flocked to his home to learn his archery skills.However， an immoral man named Peng Meng was among the people， but only wanted the elixir.
One day when Hou Yi was out， the cunning Peng sneaked into the couple’s room to steal the elixir but Chang’e caught him.Peng tried to force Chang’e to hand over the elixir but she swallowed it and started to floated up to the sky， all the way to the moon.Legend has it that she chose to stay on the moon， the closest planet to the Earth， so that she could stay nearer to her husband.
Hou Yi was heartbroken by her departure.He immediately set up a table in his garden and laid out Chang’e’s favourite foods to pay tribute （敬意） to her.From then on， people began to worship the moon.

5 / 5Section Ⅴ LESSON 3 MEMORIES OF CHRISTMAS
[1]I still remember the last Christmas Granny spent with us.It began in the middle of November on a cold， windy day.I remember the wind because Granny’s grey hair was a mess① when she arrived.That was also the day Granny moved in②.Somehow③， at the time， I didn’t know she was sick.Maybe I was too young， maybe she hid it too well， or maybe I was just too excited that Christmas was on the way④.
After Granny moved in， she spent most of her time on the brown sofa by the fire⑤.Sometimes she was quiet， but she seemed happy.[2]When I wrote a letter to Father Christmas telling him about the presents I wanted， Granny made an effort to⑥ help me.Her hand was slightly⑦ shaky， but she wrote “Father Christmas， the North Pole⑧” on the envelope⑨.
[1]句中Granny spent with us为省略了关系代词which/that的定语从句，修饰先行词the last Christmas。
[2]句中When引导时间状语从句，从句中telling him about the presents I wanted为动词-ing形式作状语，其中I wanted为省略了关系代词的定语从句，修饰先行词the presents，关系代词在从句中作宾语时可省略。
In December， our excitement grew each day — lights appeared in the streets， Christmas cards arrived， and there was snow everywhere.Granny and I made sugar biscuits， stuffed⑩ the turkey and then I sat on my granny’s lap and we sang Christmas songs.My favourite song was Frosty the Snowman and I loved the bit that went “Thumpety-thump-thump， thumpety-thump-thump， look at Frosty go！” Granny had the patience to sing it over and over again.
[3]On Christmas Eve ， Granny took a seat by the fire as we put up the Christmas tree.I hung most of the decorations on the branches .
“[4]That’s the most beautiful tree I’ve ever seen，” Granny said.
Then she started singing， “Oh， Christmas tree， oh， Christmas tree， you fill my heart with music ...”
Before bed， Granny and I left a plate of sugar biscuits out for Father Christmas， and put a stocking at the end of my bed.I remember Granny sitting on my bed and singing softly until I fell asleep.
[3]句中as we put up the Christmas tree为as引导的时间状语从句。
[4]句中I’ve ever seen为省略了that/which的定语从句，先行词被最高级所修饰，定语从句一般用现在完成时。 My stocking was full of small toys and sweets on Christmas morning， and there were presents under the tree.I was on my best behaviour as we opened the presents.Later， Granny called me over.
“I have something special for you，” Granny whispered .“It’s for all your treasures.Merry Christmas.”
It was a music box with a ballet dancer inside.
After breakfast， Auntie Kath and my cousin David arrived.While Mum， Dad and Auntie Kath got lunch ready， David and I played outside.We raced around the garden and rolled a big snowball to make a lovely snowman.Granny stayed inside by the fire.I remember catching her eye through the window.
“Come outside， Granny，” I called， but she just waved .
Lunch was late， but it was a loud and exciting affair .[5]We put on silly paper hats and had a big turkey with potatoes， followed by Christmas pudding.[6]David put so much pudding in his mouth that he couldn’t swallow.
[5]句中followed by Christmas pudding为动词-ed短语作状语。
[6]句中so ...that ...（如此……以至于……）引导结果状语从句。
“How’s the pudding？” Granny asked.
“Mmmph， mmmph， mmmph，” said David.
Auntie Kath didn’t think it was funny， but the rest of us did.Granny laughed so much that her paper hat fell off.
A few weeks after that Christmas， Granny passed away .I think of her often though， especially at Christmas.[7]Each year，I take out the music box she gave me.[8]Inside I keep Granny’s paper hat and the letter she helped me write that Christmas. Mum gave the letter back to me some years ago when I no longer believed in Father Christmas.[9]When I think about what makes Christmas so magical， it’s not just gifts and Father Christmas that come to mind .It’s also my memory of Granny.Now I’m the one who makes sugar biscuits each year， and I always make one in a G-shape — G for Granny.
[7]句中she gave me 为省略了关系代词that/which的定语从句，修饰先行词the music box。
[8]句中she helped me write that Christmas为省略了关系代词that/which的定语从句，修饰先行词the letter。
[9]本句为主从复合句。其中When引导时间状语从句，从句中包含what引导的宾语从句，主句it’s not just ...that come to mind为强调句型，强调主语not just gifts and Father Christmas。

【参考译文】
我仍记得奶奶和我们一起度过的最后一个圣诞节。十一月中旬，寒冷多风的日子就来了。我记得那天的风，因为奶奶到达时她的灰头发乱作一团。那天也是奶奶搬进来的日子。然而，那个时候我并未发现她病了。或许是因为我太小了，或许是她隐藏得太好了，或者可能是我对圣诞节的到来太兴奋了。
奶奶搬过来以后，大多数时间都待在炉火旁棕色的沙发上。有时她很安静，但她看起来很高兴。当我写信给圣诞老人，告诉他我想要的礼物时，奶奶尽力帮助我。她的手有点发抖，但她在信封上写上了“圣诞老人，北极”。
十二月，我们的兴奋感与日俱增——街道上灯火通明，圣诞贺卡来了，到处都是雪。奶奶和我做了糖饼干，填了火鸡，然后我坐在奶奶的腿上，我们一起唱圣诞歌。我最喜欢的歌是《雪人＜雪孩子＞》，我喜欢那伴随着“砰砰砰，砰砰砰砰，看弗罗斯蒂走！”的节拍。奶奶耐心地一遍又一遍地唱。
在平安夜，奶奶靠着炉火坐着，我们把圣诞树立起来。我把大部分装饰都挂在树枝上。
“那是我见过的最漂亮的树，”奶奶说。
然后她开始唱，“哦，圣诞树，哦，圣诞树，你用音乐填满我内心……”
睡觉前，奶奶和我为圣诞老人准备了一盘糖饼干，并在床头放了一只长袜。我记得奶奶坐在我的床上，轻声唱歌直到我睡着。
圣诞节早上，我的袜子里装满了小玩具和糖果，而且树下有礼物。 拆礼物时，我表现得特别好。后来，奶奶叫我过来。
“我有一个特别的东西给你，”奶奶低声说。“为了保存你所有的财富。 圣诞快乐。”
那是一个音乐盒，里面有个芭蕾舞演员。
早饭后，凯丝姑妈和我的堂弟大卫来了。 当妈妈、爸爸和凯丝姑妈准备午饭时，我和大卫在外面玩。我们在花园里跑来跑去，滚了一个大雪球，做了一个可爱的雪人。 奶奶待在炉火旁。我记得当时从窗户里看到她的眼睛。
“到外面来，奶奶，”我叫她，但她只是挥了挥手。
午餐晚了，但这是一件既欢闹又令人兴奋的大事。 我们戴上傻傻的纸帽子，吃塞有土豆的大火鸡，随后又吃圣诞布丁。大卫在嘴里塞了太多布丁，以至于都吞不下去了。
“布丁怎么样？”奶奶问。
“唔，唔，唔，”大卫说。
凯丝姑妈不觉得有趣，但我们其他人都觉得有趣。 奶奶开怀大笑，她的纸帽子掉了下来。
圣诞节后的几个星期，奶奶去世了。 不过我经常想起她，尤其是在圣诞节。 每年，我都会拿出她给我的音乐盒。我把奶奶的纸帽子和她帮我写的那封圣诞信放在里面。我不再相信有圣诞老人时，妈妈就把信还给了我。当我想到是什么让圣诞节如此神奇时，我想到的不仅仅是礼物和圣诞老人，还有我对奶奶的回忆。 现在的我每年都做糖饼干，我总是做一个G形的饼干——G代表奶奶。

song was Frosty the Snowman and I loved the bit that went “Thumpety-

had the patience to sing it over and over again.
[3]On Christmas Eve ， Granny took a seat by the fire as we put
up the Christmas tree.I hung most of the decorations on the branches .
“[4]That’s the most beautiful tree I’ve ever seen，” Granny said.
Then she started singing， “Oh， Christmas tree， oh， Christmas

A few weeks after that Christmas， Granny passed away .I think of

【参考译文】
我仍记得奶奶和我们一起度过的最后一个圣诞节。十一月中旬，
寒冷多风的日子就来了。我记得那天的风，因为奶奶到达时她的灰头
发乱作一团。那天也是奶奶搬进来的日子。然而，那个时候我并未发
现她病了。或许是因为我太小了，或许是她隐藏得太好了，或者可能
是我对圣诞节的到来太兴奋了。
奶奶搬过来以后，大多数时间都待在炉火旁棕色的沙发上。有时
她很安静，但她看起来很高兴。当我写信给圣诞老人，告诉他我想要
的礼物时，奶奶尽力帮助我。她的手有点发抖，但她在信封上写上了
“圣诞老人，北极”。
十二月，我们的兴奋感与日俱增——街道上灯火通明，圣诞贺卡
来了，到处都是雪。奶奶和我做了糖饼干，填了火鸡，然后我坐在奶
奶的腿上，我们一起唱圣诞歌。我最喜欢的歌是《雪人＜雪孩子
＞》，我喜欢那伴随着“砰砰砰，砰砰砰砰，看弗罗斯蒂走！”的节
拍。奶奶耐心地一遍又一遍地唱。
在平安夜，奶奶靠着炉火坐着，我们把圣诞树立起来。我把大部
分装饰都挂在树枝上。
“那是我见过的最漂亮的树，”奶奶说。
然后她开始唱，“哦，圣诞树，哦，圣诞树，你用音乐填满我内
心……”
睡觉前，奶奶和我为圣诞老人准备了一盘糖饼干，并在床头放了
一只长袜。我记得奶奶坐在我的床上，轻声唱歌直到我睡着。
圣诞节早上，我的袜子里装满了小玩具和糖果，而且树下有礼
物。 拆礼物时，我表现得特别好。后来，奶奶叫我过来。
“我有一个特别的东西给你，”奶奶低声说。“为了保存你所有的
财富。 圣诞快乐。”
那是一个音乐盒，里面有个芭蕾舞演员。
早饭后，凯丝姑妈和我的堂弟大卫来了。 当妈妈、爸爸和凯丝姑
妈准备午饭时，我和大卫在外面玩。我们在花园里跑来跑去，滚了一
个大雪球，做了一个可爱的雪人。 奶奶待在炉火旁。我记得当时从窗
户里看到她的眼睛。
“到外面来，奶奶，”我叫她，但她只是挥了挥手。
午餐晚了，但这是一件既欢闹又令人兴奋的大事。 我们戴上傻傻
的纸帽子，吃塞有土豆的大火鸡，随后又吃圣诞布丁。大卫在嘴里塞
了太多布丁，以至于都吞不下去了。
“布丁怎么样？”奶奶问。
“唔，唔，唔，”大卫说。
凯丝姑妈不觉得有趣，但我们其他人都觉得有趣。 奶奶开怀大
笑，她的纸帽子掉了下来。
圣诞节后的几个星期，奶奶去世了。 不过我经常想起她，尤其是
在圣诞节。 每年，我都会拿出她给我的音乐盒。我把奶奶的纸帽子和
她帮我写的那封圣诞信放在里面。我不再相信有圣诞老人时，妈妈就
把信还给了我。当我想到是什么让圣诞节如此神奇时，我想到的不仅
仅是礼物和圣诞老人，还有我对奶奶的回忆。 现在的我每年都做糖饼
干，我总是做一个G形的饼干——G代表奶奶。

Ⅰ.阅读理解

The 15th day of the eighth lunar month is the Mid-Autumn
Festival.The festival celebrations date back more than 2，000 years.The
word Mid-Autumn first appeared in the famous ancient book Zhou Li.It
became an established festival during the Song Dynasty （960－1279），
and has become as popular as the Spring Festival since the Ming and Qing
Dynasties.
It takes its name from the fact that it is always celebrated in the
middle of the autumn season.The day is also known as the Moon
Festival， as at that time of the year the moon is at its roundest and
brightest.
This yearning for the moon among Chinese people can be traced back
to a fairytale：“Chang’e Flies to the Moon.” What is the story about？
Chang’e is the Chinese goddess of the moon.According to the Chinese
mythology， Chang’e’s husband Hou Yi， a brave archer （弓箭手），
was able to shoot down nine suns and saved the planet.As a reward he was
given an elixir of immortality （不死仙药）， but Hou Yi asked Chang’e
to put it away.
After the archer’s epic deeds， he gained instant fame and a large
number of people flocked to his home to learn his archery
skills.However， an immoral man named Peng Meng was among the
people， but only wanted the elixir.
One day when Hou Yi was out， the cunning Peng sneaked into the
couple’s room to steal the elixir but Chang’e caught him.Peng tried to force
Chang’e to hand over the elixir but she swallowed it and started to floated
up to the sky， all the way to the moon.Legend has it that she chose to stay
on the moon， the closest planet to the Earth， so that she could stay
nearer to her husband.
Hou Yi was heartbroken by her departure.He immediately set up a
table in his garden and laid out Chang’e’s favourite foods to pay tribute
（敬意） to her.From then on， people began to worship the moon.

（2024·福州高一上学期期末考试）The first week of September
was a week that I had been expecting all summer.I didn’t want summer to
end， but I was excited about going to high school for my first week.
When I got to school in the morning on the first day， I realised how
large the school was， and how many students went there.I ended up in the
wrong classroom because of the size of the school.Luckily， a kind senior
showed up and guided me to my homeroom before I was late.I was happy
to see that in a class of unfamiliar faces， the only open seat was next to
my good friend， Casey.My science teacher seemed like a good
teacher.She was easy to get along with.
After finishing four periods without too much of a challenge， I
didn’t feel too bad about ninth grade.However， the fifth period changed
everything.I didn’t feel ready after all.My teacher’s name is Mr Valassidis
but he told us to call him Mr V. Mr V told us that we would have to write
40 essays （文章） and read AP-level books such as The Odyssey this
year.I love reading and writing， but come on， 40 ESSAYS？ AP-level
books？ Now I was afraid.
The courses in high school seem like they’re going to get much
harder， but they haven’t yet.Even though my classes look hard， they
look really excited， too.
The first week passed quickly.Although a lot of things were
overwhelming （令人不知所措的）：the size of the campus， the
crowds （人群） and the seniors， having a totally different experience
than I had ever had before was really exciting.Now， I’m really happy
about high school.I have lots of friends in my classes， I really like my
teachers and I’m meeting new people.
