Step 1 品教材课文 Step 2 析写作手法
MY AMAZING NAADAM EXPERIENCE I experienced the Naadam Festival in China’s Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region for the first time this year.The festival falls on the fourth day of the sixth month of the lunar calendar， usually lasting for three days.Naadam means “games” in Mongolian， and it is represented by three events： horse racing， wrestling， and archery， which are all so exciting to watch！ On the first day， I set off to the games early with my friend Burin.I saw a lot of people wearing fancy Mongolian robes.Some were feeding their horses， some were practising archery， and others were chatting or taking photographs.Burin told me that Mongolians travel every year from near and far to attend the festival， just as their ancestors had done for centuries. After the opening ceremony and some amazing performances， the wrestling competition began.Mongolian wrestling is different from the wrestling in the Olympic Games.There are no rounds， and wrestlers are not separated by weight.The wrestler loses if any part of his body above his knee touches the ground.After singing some songs， the competitors danced onto the green field， waving their arms in the air as if they were eagles.I was quite moved by their show of strength and grace. I absolutely enjoyed the archery， too， but the horse races were my favourite part.However， I was surprised to see that the riders were boys and girls！ I heard it is because children are lighter and the horses can run faster and farther.At first， I was a little worried about the children’s safety， but Burin said， “Don’t worry.They’ve been riding horses all their lives.They’ll be just fine.” That was the moment I started to understand why people say “Horses are at the heart of Mongolian culture”.... I’m finally back home now， feeling really tired， but celebrating Naadam with my friend was totally worth it.He invited me back for the winter to stay in a traditional Mongolian tent and eat hot pot.I can’t wait！ 学语言： 1.修饰语： 文章第三段倒数第二句使用了比喻的修辞手法，用来描述摔跤选手的激情。 2.连接词： （1）在第二至四段中，作者分别描写了“那达慕”大会的节日习俗与开幕仪式、蒙古式摔跤以及赛马活动等，运用了时间顺序的描写方法，使用On the first day ...、 After the opening ceremony ...、 After singing some songs ...等使层次清晰，逻辑鲜明，语意连贯。 （2）文章最后一段恰当地使用副词finally、 really、 totally描述了作者的节日感受，并表达了作者对故地重游的期待。 3.高级表达： set off、 amazing、 absolutely、 can’t wait 等表达的运用彰显了作者高人一筹的文字驾驭能力。 4.高级句式： （1）文章第二段第三句运用了排比句some ...some ...and others ...， 不仅使表达具有韵律感，还能增强气势。 （2）文章第四段第二句巧妙运用了感叹句，表达了作者强烈的惊讶之情。 学结构：
【参考译文】
我的“那达慕”大会奇妙经历
今年，我第一次体验了中国内蒙古自治区的“那达慕”大会。这一节日于每年农历六月初四开始，通常持续三天。“那达慕”在蒙语中意为“游戏”，主要表现为三大赛事：赛马、摔跤和射箭，每项运动都动人心魄！
（“那达慕”大会的）第一天，我和好友布林早早出发来到了会场。我看到许多人身着华丽的蒙古袍。有的在喂马，有的在练习射箭，其他人则在聊天或拍照。布林告诉我说，与他们数百年前的祖先一样，蒙古人每年都会从四面八方赶来参加这一节日。
开幕式和几项精彩的表演之后，摔跤比赛开始了。蒙古式摔跤与奥运会的摔跤比赛有所不同：它不分局，摔跤手也不分体重级别。摔跤手膝盖以上的任何部位先着地者为负。几首歌唱毕，选手们开始在草地上翩翩起舞，他们挥动着双臂，宛如雄鹰。这刚与柔的展示深深地打动了我。
射箭同样令我叹为观止，但赛马才是我最喜爱的部分。然而，看到赛马选手们都是男孩和女孩，我十分惊讶！听说这是因为儿童体重更轻，马儿才能跑得更快、更远。刚开始的时候，我有点担心这些孩子的安全，但布林却说：“别担心，他们是在马背上长大的，不会有事的。”我顿时明白了为什么人们说“马是蒙古文化的核心”了。……
我现在已经回到家了，感到十分疲倦，但能和我的朋友一起庆祝那达慕，再累也是值得的。他邀请我冬天时再去住传统的蒙古包，吃火锅。我已经迫不及待了！

2 / 2Section Ⅱ Reading and Thinking
WHY DO WE CELEBRATE FESTIVALS？
Festivals are celebrated all around the world.They have a wide range① of origins②， such as the seasons of the year， religions③， famous figures④， and important events.Every festival has its different customs and unique charms⑤.However，[1] no matter how different they may seem， all over the world， the spirit of sharing joy⑥， gratitude⑦， love， or peace is common in all festivals.
Of all the traditional festivals， the harvest⑧ festival can be found in almost every culture.[2]This important agricultural⑨ festival takes place after all the crops⑩ have been gathered in. People celebrate to show that they are grateful for the year’s supply of food.In ancient Egypt， the harvest festival was celebrated during the springtime — the Egyptian harvest season.It featured a parade and a great feast with music， dancing， and sports.Today， in some European countries， people decorate churches and town halls with flowers and fruit， and get together to celebrate over a meal.During the Mid-Autumn Festival in China， families gather to admire the shining moon and enjoy delicious mooncakes.
[1]“no matter＋特殊疑问词”引导让步状语从句，意为“无论……”。
[2]句中的after引导时间状语从句，意为“在……之后”。
Customs play a significant role in festivals， but sometimes they can change over time.With the development of modern society and the spread of new ideas， some traditions may fade away and others may be established.One example is the typical Chinese Spring Festival custom of lighting firecrackers to drive away the evil spirits and celebrate the new year.Nowadays， many big cities have given up this custom in order to avoid air pollution.[3]Another example is Halloween， which slowly became an exciting festival for children， in spite of its religious origins.
[4]Festivals are becoming more and more commercial ， with businesses taking advantage of the celebrations.Online shopping websites and social media apps have made it much easier for the public to spend more on gifts for their loved ones.Although some believe festivals should not be commercialised ， others believe the increase in spending is good for the economy and public happiness.
Festivals are an important part of society.They reflect people’s wishes， beliefs ， faiths ， and attitudes towards life.They are occasions that allow us to relax and enjoy life， and forget about our work for a little while.They help us understand where we came from， who we are， and what to appreciate.And if you study festivals carefully， you may be surprised to find that different cultures actually have a lot in common after all.
[3]句中which引导非限制性定语从句。
[4]句中使用了with复合结构，即“with＋宾语＋宾语补足语”；动词-ing短语taking advantage of the celebrations作宾语补足语，用于补充说明宾语businesses的情况。

【参考译文】
我们为什么庆祝节日？
世界各地都庆祝各种节日。节日的由来五花八门，比如时节、宗教、著名人物及重大事件。每个节日都有它不同的风俗和独特的魅力。然而，无论节日多么迥异，在世界各地，分享快乐、感恩、友爱或和平的精神存在于所有节日之中。
在所有的传统节日中，丰收节几乎可见于每一种文化之中。这一重大的农业节日在庄稼全部收割后举行。人们举行庆祝活动，对这一年收获的食物表达感恩。在古埃及，人们于春季（即埃及的丰收季）庆祝丰收节。庆祝活动主要是游行和丰盛的筵席，载歌载舞，并伴有体育活动。如今，在一些欧洲国家，人们用鲜花和水果装饰教堂和市政厅，聚在一起共享大餐，以示庆祝。在中国的中秋节，家家户户欢聚一堂，观赏明月，品尝美味的月饼。
风俗在节日中扮演重要角色，但有时也随时间而变化。随着现代社会的发展和新思想的传播，有些传统会渐渐消失，而另一些传统则得以建立。中国春节燃放鞭炮以驱鬼神、贺新年这一典型风俗就是一个例子。如今，为了避免空气污染，许多大城市已经摒弃了这一风俗。另一个例子是万圣节，虽然起源于宗教，但万圣节渐渐成了孩子们纵情玩乐的一个节日。
节日正变得越来越商业化，商家会利用这些庆祝活动（进行促销）。购物网站和社交媒体应用程序极大地方便了人们为至亲至爱花更多钱购买礼物。尽管有人认为节日不应该被商业化，但是也有人认为消费增长有利于（提高）经济和公众幸福感。
节日是社会的一个重要组成部分。节日反映了人们的愿望、信仰、信念以及对生活的态度。节日是让我们放松心情、享受生活、暂时忘却工作的时刻。节日让我们了解我们来自何方、我们是谁、我们应该感恩什么。此外，如果你仔细研究各种节日，你会惊奇地发现不同的文化实际上有很多相同之处。

（Text 1）
M：Hey， Sarah！ This year I’m going to the rock festival for all three days！
W：Oh， lucky you， Leo！ Are you going with your cousin again？
M：Not this year.My brother has promised to take me there now.My sister’s too busy with her college work.
W：How will you get there？
M：We wanted to drive， but Dad said no.And it’s too far from the city for us to cycle there， but there are special buses so we’ll take those.
W：What do you have to take with you？
M：Just a tent and clothes， really.We’ll need lots of water， but we’ll buy that and all our meals there.Hey！ Come with us！
W：Maybe I will！
（Text 2）
M：Hey， Jenny， the Summer Festival is happening in the park.Don’t you know about it？
W：No.Is it a music festival？
M：Well， in fact， it’s a festival of food and art.
W：Oh， that sounds interesting.When does it begin？
M：On Friday.Last year it finished on Saturday， but this year the festival will run for three days， not two.
W：Great！ I’d like to go.Is it open all day？
M：The gates open at eleven in the morning， and they stay open until midnight.
W：I don’t think I’ll stay that long.But I might go in the afternoon at about three o’clock and stay there until seven o’clock.
M：Well， please don’t come by car.The city center will be very busy.Take the bus.The No.15 goes to the park every 15 minutes.
W：Thanks a lot for reminding.
（Text 3）
W：The festival is great， isn’t it？
M：Yes.I have never seen such a good art festival before.
W：But I have a question — why is the festival only held in winter rather than in other seasons？ I prefer it is held in summer.
M：Summer？ It’s not a good idea.
W：Why not？
M：As there are many travelers in summer， if there is an art festival， the town will be crowded.But in winter， there aren’t enough travelers.For the town’s development， the government organises the festival.
W：It sounds more reasonable.
（Text 4）
W：Attention， please！ Now I will give you a brief introduction to the Winter Festival.It is a free event for all people to enjoy， and is organised by a team of volunteers.The first Winter Festival was introduced the year before last.Sadly due to a lack of money， no festival was held last year.This year the government may provide 15，000 to the festival.They also persuaded the businessmen around the town to offer the rest 5，000.
There will be a free art exhibition on Friday 18， Saturday 19 and Sunday 20 December in the Center Park of the town.The opening hours are from 10：00 a.m.to 4：00 p.m.， and there is an opening night only on Friday， from 7：30 p.m.to 10：00 p.m.Different from other exhibitions， this art exhibition is really a special one because the public will have the chance to watch the paintings which are from the town’s school.And all the paintings are created by the students.
It is great that the Festival is going to host a wonderful sound of music in the Main Exhibition Hall this year.This program aims to show some of the musical talents that we have in town.Everyone watching the performance had better not wear formal clothes， but fancy dress.And in the program， you will hear classical music， pop music， rock music and operas.

W：I have done a big mistake.
M：What’s that？
W：I have sent the wrong goods to the customer so that we lost millions of dollars.
M：How come？ You’re really careless！ You should be more careful in doing things.
W：I made a mistake in putting the address on the package.I didn’t do it intentionally.I feel guilty， and I have apologised.
M：Yes， I know it.But it’s useless to regret.Don’t make any mistakes again.
W：Alright， I think you are right.I promise I won’t do it again.

W：Aaron， a 12-year-old boy， loved playing on the open land near his home.The land was wet and forested， and made a home for animals and many different plants.It made the perfect place for him to get to know and study nature.All of a sudden， it was announced that the empty land would be improved by building a very large complex of apartments on it.The plants would be removed， and the animals would escape and most probably die.When Aaron heard the news， he was not happy.He was worried that polluted water would run from the apartments into the ponds.From the ponds， water would run into the water supply that served the people of that area.
Aaron wrote down clearly all the research he had done about the area， and how the apartment block would affect the local environment.He sent letters to members of government and television reporters.Finally， Aaron prevented the apartments from being built， and thus helped save his environment.The land remained a safe place for animals and plants.
Although Aaron was only 12， he had the courage and wisdom of a person much older.Aaron’s teachers described him as gentle， shy and motivated.

W：I tried to phone you yesterday.
M：Oh， sorry.I was busy all day and then I went to London in the evening for a meal with some friends.
W：Did you take your car？
M：I left it at home.Parking is such a problem.But the underground was closed for repairs so I had to take the bus.It was quite slow.
W：Did you go to your favourite Spanish restaurant？
M：I was hoping to try some Mexican food but my friends booked a table in a Chinese place.
W：Was it expensive？
M：Quite cheap actually， and the food was very good — but it’s only a small restaurant so a lot of people had to wait for tables — and it was quite noisy.
W：You didn’t stay there and talk afterwards then！
M：We went for a walk along the river.I had a really good evening.
（Text 2）
M：Hi， Julia.Do you like the Christmas carols we’re singing in choir this month？
W：Not really， to be honest.I’m really unfamiliar with most of them.In China， the carols we really know are Jingle Bells and Santa Claus is Coming to Town.I don’t really understand the words of any other ones.
M：Do you want me to explain the words to you？ I think it’s important to understand the words you’re singing.
W：Yeah， that sounds great！ Let’s start with We Wish You a Merry Christmas.What in the world is figgy pudding， and why are people asking for it？
M：That is a weird line！ Figgy pudding is a traditional British Christmas dessert.It kind of looks like a cake.It’s not that common today， but people used to give a figgy pudding to each other at Christmas hundreds of years ago.
（Text 3）
W：Everything is ready.Please come to the dining room.
M：Wow， what a marvelous table you’ve got here！ I’ve long heard Chinese dishes are well-known all over the world for their colour， aroma and taste.
W：I hope you like my cooking.
M：I think you are not only a good teacher but also a good cook.
W：Thanks for the compliment.Let’s begin with chicken which will bring luck to the guests， according to Chinese culture.
M：It sounds interesting.In that case， I’ll eat more.
W：Please help yourself to it.
M：Thanks.I like fried kidney best among Chinese food.
W：Have a try.
M：Well， it’s really unusual！ It’s quite tender and delicious！
（Text 4）
W：If you’re listening to this， then you’re probably studying English.Maybe you speak a couple of other languages too.But what are the British like when it comes to learning languages？ According to a survey published by the European Commission， the British are officially the worst language learners in Europe — 62 percent of them can’t speak any other language apart from their own.While 38 percent of Britons speak at least one foreign language， only 18 percent speak two.Learning a foreign language isn’t a popular option at school in Britain； children start studying a foreign language at the age of 11 and may give up completely at 14.
So， why don’t young people continue with languages at school？ Research suggests that students think it is more difficult to get good grades in languages than in other subjects such as science or history.The government is now looking at different ways to improve language learning.One idea is to start much younger and introduce foreign languages from the age of five.Another plan is to give school children more choices and expand the range of languages taught to include Arabic， Mandarin and Urdu.

四、
Dear Editor，
We had a discussion over whether it’s necessary to carry out the outer space exploration at a class meeting the other day.Some of us think it important to research the outer space.First， people can get a better understanding of the outer space through their explorations.Second， new resources can be found in space for humans to use and it will bring about new living space for human lives.
However， others don’t believe so.In their opinion， not only does this kind of exploration cost too much money but it’s also very dangerous for astronauts to do such work.
In my opinion， such explorations into the outer space are worthwhile.
Yours，
Li Hua

M：Can you give me a lift to my office this morning？
W：Uh， Carl.Why are you always asking me for that？
M：I’m sorry.I could take the bus， but then I’d have to leave so early！ If you give me a ride， I can sleep for an extra thirty minutes.
W：Well， I have to go to a concert today， and I hate to rush in advance.Why not ask Mom for a ride or drive your own car？
M：You know I want to.But I have to save money on gas.I only make ten dollars an hour.And I asked Mom， but she’ll have to go to the airport to pick up her client.
W：Well， OK.I’ll do it this time， but only this once.
M：Thanks！
（Text 2）
M：Tina， come in.
W：Thanks！What a beautiful flat！ Where did you get all these things？
M：Well， my father bought the CD player， and the other things were presents from my family， too.My brother gave me that red sofa.It was in his flat with two red chairs， but it was too big.He’s still got the chairs.
W：And what about the table that the CD player’s on？
M：My sister bought a new table and chairs when she got married.This is her old one.
W：And this desk looks really old.
M：Yeah， it was my grandfather’s desk when he was a student.He gave me that and my grandmother gave me that mirror over there on the wall.
W：What about your mother？
M：She bought me those bookshelves.My brother helped me put them on the wall.We put up the mirror at the same time.Could you help me clean the bookshelves now？
W：Of course.
（Text 3）
W：I’m sorry for being late.I left home early.But the traffic is getting increasingly crowded.
M：Well， it doesn’t matter.Traffic jams in Shanghai are very common.For me， I’d like to take the subway.It saves a lot of time and money.
W：I can’t agree with you more.I’ll try it next time.Oh， I’m really a bit hungry.
M：You can have a look at the menu first.
W：Wow， everything looks absolutely delicious.My mouth is watering.
M：I’ve been here several times.The environment is quite clean.
W：Oh， yes.The price is also reasonable.

M：If I could go back in history and live when I like， I’d like to relive a period I’ve already lived — the 1960s.I was in my twenties， and everything was being renewed.You really felt anything was possible.Meeting people was the thing， and you went to coffee bars where you met friends and spent the evening.The cinema， the theater， all that was very exciting with new things coming out.In fact， we seemed to be out all the time！ I don’t really remember working — of course， I was a student — or sitting around at home very much.It was the first time ordinary people started going out to eat.We were beginning to be adventurous about food， but we were more interested in meeting people.And dress， yes， that was the revolution.I mean， girls went around in really short skirts.Men were in jeans， and could wear their hair long， too.It was a wonderful period.It was like living in an age you could never have imagined， and that never has come back.We didn’t have much money， but it didn’t matter.And there were plenty of opportunities to do whatever you felt like doing.
